9d42649d5 core: fix mining from a block that's not the current top (moneromooo-monero)
The cache is discarded when a block is popped, but then gets
rebuilt when the difficulty for next block is requested.
While this is all properly locked, it does not take into account
the delay caused by a database transaction being only committed
(and thus its effects made visible to other threads) later on,
which means another thread could request difficulty between
the pop and the commit, which would end up using stale database
view to build the cache, but that cache would not be invalidated
again when the transaction gets committed, which would cause the
cache to not match the new database data.
To fix this, we now keep track of when the cache is invalidated
so we can invalidate it again upon database transaction commit
to ensure it gets calculated again with fresh data next time it
is nedeed.
On startup, it checks against the difficulty checkpoints, and if any mismatch is found, recalculates all the blocks with wrong difficulties. Additionally, once a week it recalculates difficulties of blocks after the last difficulty checkpoint.
M100 = max{300kb, min{100block_median, m_long_term_effective_median_block_weight}}
not
M100 = max{300kb, m_long_term_effective_median_block_weight}
Fix base reward in get_dynamic_base_fee_estimate().
get_dynamic_base_fee_estimate() should match check_fee()
Fee is calculated based on block reward, and the reward penalty takes into account 0.5*max_block_weight (both before and after HF_VERSION_EFFECTIVE_SHORT_TERM_MEDIAN_IN_PENALTY).
Moved median calculation according to best practice of 'keep definitions close to where they are used'.
Use the lesser of the short and long terms medians, rather then
the long term median alone
From ArticMine:
I found a bug in the new fee calculation formula with using only the long term median
It actually needs to be the lesser of the long term median and the old (modified short term median)
short term median with the last 10 blocks calculated as empty
Yes the issue occurs if there is a large long term median and, the short term median then falls and tries to then rise again
The fees are could be not high enough
for example LTM and STM rise to say 2000000 bytes
STM falls back to 300000 bytes
Fees are now based on 2000000 bytes until LTM also falls
So the STM is could prevented from rising back up
STM short term median LTM long term median
If the peer (whether pruned or not itself) supports sending pruned blocks
to syncing nodes, the pruned version will be sent along with the hash
of the pruned data and the block weight. The original tx hashes can be
reconstructed from the pruned txes and theur prunable data hash. Those
hashes and the block weights are hashes and checked against the set of
precompiled hashes, ensuring the data we received is the original data.
It is currently not possible to use this system when not using the set
of precompiled hashes, since block weights can not otherwise be checked
for validity.
This is off by default for now, and is enabled by --sync-pruned-blocks

Such a template would yield an invalid block, though would require
an attacker to have mined a long blockchain with drifting times
(assuming the miner's clock is roughly correct)
