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.
* Move lock protection to where it is needed.
* Use gcd to reduce problem to lowest terms.
* Use improved overflow avoidance to retain
as much precision as possible.
* Detect overflow if it can be shown that the
final result will not fit in a uint64_t.
* Consider ledgers incompatible based on last valid ledger
* Test against even ledgers not acquired yet
* Don't validate an incompatible ledger
* Don't switch to an incompatible ledger
* Protect against an unreasonably small quorum
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.
This non-production config section allows features to be enabled
by listing their text descriptions, one line each, in the config
section titled "features".
NOTE: Feature names with leading or trailing whitespace, or
containing an equals sign ('=') are not supported.
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.
* Remove ltCURRENT
* Change getOwnerInfo
* Use ReadView in TransactionSign
* Change AcceptedLedger and ProposedTransaction to use ReadView
* Change RPC::accounts
