All uses of beast::Thread were previously removed from the code
base, so beast::Thread is removed. One piece of beast::Thread
needed to be preserved: the ability to set the current thread's
name. So there's now a beast::CurrentThreadName that allows the
current thread's name to be set and returned.
Thread naming is also cleaned up a bit. ThreadName.h and .cpp
are removed since beast::CurrentThreadName does a better job.
ThreadEntry is also removed, but its terminateHandler() is
preserved in TerminateHandler.cpp. The revised terminateHandler()
uses beast::CurrentThreadName to recover the name of the running
thread.
Finally, the NO_LOG_UNHANDLED_EXCEPTIONS #define is removed since
it was discovered that the MacOS debugger preserves the stack
of the original throw even if the terminateHandler() rethrows.
Validator lists from configured remote sites are fetched at a regular
interval. Fetched lists are expected to be in JSON format and contain the
following fields:
* "manifest": Base64-encoded serialization of a manifest containing the
validator publisher's master and signing public keys.
* "blob": Base64-encoded JSON string containing a "sequence",
"expiration" and "validators" field. "expiration" contains the Ripple
timestamp (seconds since January 1st, 2000 (00:00 UTC)) for when the
list expires. "validators" contains an array of objects with a
"validation_public_key" field.
* "signature": Hex-encoded signature of the blob using the publisher's
signing key.
* "version": 1
* "refreshInterval" (optional)
Instead of specifying a static list of trusted validators in the config
or validators file, the configuration can now include trusted validator
list publisher keys.
The trusted validator list and quorum are now reset each consensus
round using the latest validator lists and the list of recent
validations seen. The minimum validation quorum is now only
configurable via the command line.
This will allow code that looks at the ledger header to know what version the
SHAMap uses. This is helpful for code that rebuilds ledger binary structures
from the leaves.
Migrate tests in uniport-test.js to cpp/jtx. Handle exceptions in
WSClient and JSONRPClient constructors. Use shorter timeout
for HTTP and WS Peers when client is localhost. Add missing call to
start_timer in HTTP Peer. Add incomplete WS Upgrade request test
to prove that server timeout is working.
Cryptoconditions provide a mechanism to describe a signed message such
that multiple actors in a distributed system can all verify the same
signed message and agree on whether it matches the description. This
provides a useful primitive for event-based systems that are distributed
on the Internet since we can describe events in a standard deterministic
manner (represented by signed messages) and therefore define generic
authenticated event handlers.
The cryptoconditions specification implemented is available at:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-thomas-crypto-conditions-01
* Make HTTP(S) requests on websocket ports reply with Status page
* Fix isWebsocketUpgrade to compare case insensitive
* Make websocket upgrades with no websocket protocols configured report error
* Create unit test for unauthorized requests and the status page
All cases that still used the old RPF code now use new-style pathfinding.
This includes unit tests, RPF requests with a ledger specified, and RPF
requests in standalone mode.
