The existing platform detection code was derived from the old Beast
library, which was, itself, derived from JUCE.
This commit removes that code and replaces it with the Boost.Predef
library which defines a consistent set of compiler, architecture,
operating system, library, and other version numbers.
For more on Boost.Predef, please see the Boost documentation. The
documentation for the current version as of this writing is at:

The XRP Ledger utilizes an account model. Unlike systems based on a UTXO
model, XRP Ledger accounts are first-class objects. This design choice
allows the XRP Ledger to offer rich functionality, including the ability
to own objects (offers, escrows, checks, signer lists) as well as other
advanced features, such as key rotation and configurable multi-signing
without needing to change a destination address.
The trade-off is that accounts must be stored on ledger. The XRP Ledger
applies reserve requirements, in XRP, to protect the shared global ledger
from growing excessively large as the result of spam or malicious usage.
Prior to this commit, accounts had been permanent objects; once created,
they could never be deleted.
This commit introduces a new amendment "DeletableAccounts" which, if
enabled, will allow account objects to be deleted by executing the new
"AccountDelete" transaction. Any funds remaining in the account will
be transferred to an account specified in the deletion transaction.
The amendment changes the mechanics of account creation; previously
a new account would have an initial sequence number of 1. Accounts
created after the amendment will have an initial sequence number that
is equal to the ledger in which the account was created.
Accounts can only be deleted if they are not associated with any
obligations (like RippleStates, Escrows, or PayChannels) and if the
current ledger sequence number exceeds the account's sequence number
by at least 256 so that, if recreated, the account can be protected
from transaction replay.
The XRP Ledger allows an account to authorize a secondary key pair,
called a regular key pair, to sign future transactions, while keeping
the master key pair offline.
The regular key pair can be changed as often as desired, without
requiring other changes on the account.
If merged, this commit corrects a minor technical flaw which would
allow an account holder to specify the master key as the account's
new regular key.
The change is controlled by the `fixMasterKeyAsRegularKey` amendment
which, if enabled, will:
1. Prevent specifying an account's master key as the account's
regular key.
2. Prevent the "Disable Master Key" flag from incorrectly affecting
regular keys.
As described in #2314, when an offer executed with `Fill or Kill`
semantics, the server would return `tesSUCCESS` even if the order
couldn't be filled and was aborted. This would require additional
processing of metadata by users to determine the effects of the
transaction.
This commit introduces the `fix1578` amendment which, if enabled,
will cause the server to return the new `tecKILLED` error code
instead of `tesSUCCESS` for `Fill or Kill` orders that could not
be filled.
Additionally, the `fix1578` amendment will prevent the setting of
the `No Ripple` flag on trust lines with negative balance; trying
to set the flag on such a trust line will fail with the new error
code `tecNEGATIVE_BALANCE`.
* mFeeDue is only used in one place by one derived class, so
only compute it as a local in that function.
* The baseFee needs to be calculated outside of the Transactor class
because, it can change during transaction processing, and the function
is static, so we need to be sure to call the right version
* Rename Transactor::calculateFee to minimumFee
Add a new invariant checker that verifies that we never charge a
fee higher than specified in the transaction; we will charge less
in some corner cases where the transacting account cannot afford
the fee.
Detect more anomalous conditions, and improve the logged error
messages.
Clarify the code flow associated with invoking the invariant checker
from `Transactor`, add extra comments and improve naming to make the
code self-documenting.
The six different ranges of TER codes are broken up into six
different enumerations. A template class allows subsets of
these enumerations to be aggregated. This technique allows
verification at compile time that no TEC codes are returned
before the signature is checked.
Conversion between TER instance and integer is provided by
named functions. This makes accidental conversion almost
impossible and makes type abuse easier to spot in the code
base.
Add new functionality to enforce one or more sanity checks (invariants)
on transactions. Add tests for each new invariant check. Allow
for easily adding additional invariant checks in the future.

Release Notes
-------------
Creates a new ammendment named "EnforceInvariants" which must be
enabled in order for these new checks to run on each transaction.
A conditional suspended payment is a suspended payment where
completion of the payment is contingent upon the fulfillment
of a condition defined by the sender during creation of the
suspended payment.
This commit also introduces the "CryptoConditions" amendment
which controls whether cryptoconditions will be supported
in suspended payments. The existing "SusPay" amendment can
be used to enable suspended payments without enabling the
cryptoconditions code.
* Tweak account XRP balance and sequence if needed before preclaim.
* Limit total fees in flight to minimum reserve / account balance.
* LastLedgerSequence must be at least 2 more than the current ledger to be queued.
* Limit 10 transactions per account in the queue at a time.
* Limit queuing multiple transactions after transactions that affect authentication.
* Zero base fee transactions are treated as having a fixed fee level of 256000 instead of infinite.
* Full queue: new txn can only kick out a tx if the fee is higher than that account's average fee.
* Queued tx retry limit prevents indefinitely stuck txns.
* Return escalation factors in server_info and _state when escalated.
* Update documentation.
* Update experimental config to only include the % increase.
* Convert TxQ metric magic numbers to experimental config.
Replace Journal public data members with member function accessors
in order to make Journal lighter weight. The change makes a
Journal cheaper to pass by value.
Also add missing stream checks (e.g., calls to JLOG) to avoid
text processing that ultimately will not be stored in the log.
Add a new algorithm for finding the liquidity in a payment path. There
is still a reverse and forward pass, but the forward pass starts at the
limiting step rather than the payment source. This insures the limiting
step is completely consumed rather than potentially leaving a 'dust'
amount in the forward pass.
Each step in a payment is either a book step, a direct step (account to
account step), or an xrp endpoint. Each step in the existing
implementation is a triple, where each element in the triple is either
an account of a book, for a total of eight step types.
Since accounts are considered in pairs, rather than triples, transfer
fees are handled differently. In V1 of payments, in the payment path
A -> gw ->B, if A redeems to gw, and gw issues to B, a transfer fee is
changed. In the new code, a transfer fee is changed even if A issues to
gw.
With the addition of multisigning there are a variety of reasons
a signature may fail. We now return a more descriptive message
for the reason certain signature checks fail.
The RippleAddress class was used to represent a number of fundamentally
different types: account public keys, account secret keys, node public
keys, node secret keys, seeds and generators.
The class is replaced by the following types:
* PublicKey for account and node public keys
* SecretKey for account and node private keys
* Generator for generating secp256k1 accounts
* Seed for account, node and generator seeds
tapENABLE_TESTING is removed from checks, and feature enablement
is the sole method for activating features. Unit tests are updated
to enable required features in the construction of the Env.
Tickets are put on a feature switch instead of a build macro.
This is designed for use by proxies in front of rippled. Configured IPs
can forward identifying user data in HTTP headers, including
user name and origin IP. If the user name exists, then resource limits
are lifted for that session. However, administrative commands are still
reserved only for administrative sessions.
The first few transactions are added to the open ledger at
the base fee (ie. 10 drops). Once enough transactions are
added, the required fee will jump dramatically. If additional
transactions are added, the fee will grow exponentially.
Transactions that don't have a high enough fee to be applied to
the ledger are added to the queue in order from highest fee to
lowest. Whenever a new ledger is accepted as validated, transactions
are first applied from the queue to the open ledger in fee order
until either all transactions are applied or the fee again jumps
too high for the remaining transactions.
Current implementation is restricted to one transaction in the
queue per account. Some groundwork has been laid to expand in
the future.
Note that this fee logic escalates independently of the load-based
fee logic (ie. LoadFeeTrack). Submitted transactions must meet
the load fee to be considered for the queue, and must meet both
fees to be put into open ledger.
* All checks flow through ripple::checkValidity, which transparently caches result flags.
* All external transaction submission code paths use checkValidity.
* SF_SIGGOOD flag no longer appears outside of HashRouter / checkValidity.
* Validity can be forced in known or trusted scenarios.
Eventually multisign will need to be enabled onto the network, at
which point compiling it in or out will no longer be an option.
In preparation, the compile guards are removed and multisign is
being enabled with a Feature.
You can locally enable a Feature using your config file. To
enable multisign with your config file add a section like this:
[features]
MultiSign
The exact spelling and capitalization of both "features" and
"MultiSign" is important. If you don't get those right multisign
will not be enabled.
There is a minor issue. The "sign_for" and "submit_multisigned"
RPC commands are only enabled if multisign is enabled. However
those commands are still shown in the help message even if
multisign is disabled. This is because the code that produces
the help message doesn't read the config file (where the Features
are kept). This problem will become irrelevant once multisign is
enabled onto the network.
Multisigned transactions place a higher load on the network than
non-multisigned transactions, requiring a higher fee.
- A non-multisigned transaction always has a minimum fee - the
network base fee.
- A multisigned transaction has a minimum fee equal to the number
of multisigners plus one times the network base fee.
With this changeset two-level multisigning is removed from the
codebase and replaced with single-level multisigning.
Additionally, SignerLists in the ledger are prepared for the
possibility of multiple SignerLists per account. This was done
by adding a defaulted 32-bit SignerListID to each SignerList.
The SignerListIndex calculation incorporates the SignerListID.
There are three known missing elements:
1. Multisigned transactions should require higher fees than
regular (single-signed) transaction. That's not yet
implemented.
2. It should be possible to disable the master key on an account
if that account is multisign enabled (has a signer list).
That's not yet implemented.
3. Documentation about multisigning needs to be improved.
Multisigning is still compiled out of the code base. To enable
multisigning for a stand-alone rippled, change the
RIPPLE_ENABLE_MULTI_SIGN macro (in BeastConfig.h) to "1" and
rebuild.
This commit also addresses:
o RIPD-912: Remove multisign APIs from STObject, and
o RIPD-944: Replace common_transactor with jtx at call sites.
The preflight() function performs static validity
analysis of transactions without requiring a ledger.
* Use tx in ApplyContext
* Remove unused journal
* Document apply()
* Add preflight(), which takes an OpenView, uses its rules.
* Change `TER preCheck` to `void preCompute` since it can no longer fail.
The View hierarchy of classes is reorganized to include new
classes with member functions moved and renamed, to solve
defects in the original design:
OpenView accumulates raw state and tx changes and
can be applied to the base. ApplyView accumulates changes
for a single transaction, including metadata, and can be
applied to an OpenView. The Sandbox allows changes with
the option to apply or throw them out. The PaymentSandbox
provides a sandbox with account credit deferral.
Call sites are changed to use the class appropriate for
the task.
The OpenLedger class encapsulates the functionality of
maintaining the open ledger. It uses an OpenView with the
last closed ledger as its base. Routines are provided to
modify the open ledger to add new transactions, and to
accept a new last closed ledger. Business logic for
performing transaction retries is rewritten to fit this
framework and used in the implementation of accept.
When the RIPPLE_OPEN_LEDGER macro is set to 1 (BeastConfig.h),
the global Application OpenLedger singleton maintains
its open ledger in parallel by applying new transactions
and accepting new last closed ledgers. In the current
implementation this does not affect transaction processing
but logs any differences in the results as compared to
the original code.
Logging shows an occasional mismatch in what the OpenLedger
builds versus the original code, usually an OfferCreate
which gets a terINSUF_RESERVE instead of tesSUCCESS.
This tidies up the View interface and makes transaction
application a free function, with the removal of the
TransactionEngine class. A new class ApplyContext provides
all the state information needed to apply a Transactor. The
Transactor is refactored to perform all the processing
activities previously part of TransactionEngine.
The calculation of metadata from a MetaView is improved.
A new apply function performs all the steps for calculating
and inserting metadata into the tx map.
Transaction processing code path is passed a Config instead
of retrieving the global, and uses the Journal supplied in
the call to apply() consistently.
To support transaction processing and RPC operations, a
new POD type ViewInfo is added which consolidates static
information about open and closed ledgers, such as the ledger
sequence number or the closing times. Ledger and MetaView are
refactored to use this info.
The ViewInfo now contains the "open ledger" setting. The
tapOPEN_LEDGER ViewFlag is removed. The view property of
being an open ledger is obtained from the base or by using
the MetaView constructor which presents a closed ledger as
an open one.
View, MetaView:
* Fix missing includes
* Add apply free function
* Use Journal in TransactionEngine
* Use BasicView in TransactionEngine
* inline NetworkOPs::batchApply
* Add shallow_copy, open_ledger MetaView ctor tags
* Add ViewInfo with open flag, seq, close times
* Make parent_ a reference
* Tidy up ctor arguments and base_ name
* Remove tapOPEN_LEDGER
* add assert to MetaView::apply
* ViewInfo comment
* Throw, pass Journal in txInsert
* Add BasicView::txCount
TransactionEngine:
* Add apply
* Make TransactionEngine private
* Refactor MetaView::apply and apply()
* Rename to TxMeta
* Refactor treatment of metadata in MetaView, TransactionEngine
* Rename to ApplyContext
* Use ApplyContext& in Transactor
* Pass Config in ApplyContext
* Declare Transactor classes in headers
* Use view flags in Transactor
