This commit introduces the "HardenedValidations" amendment which, if enabled, allows validators to include additional information in their validations that can increase the robustness of consensus. Specifically, the commit introduces a new optional field that can be set in validation messages can be used to attest to the hash of the latest ledger that a validator considers to be fully validated. Additionally, the commit leverages the previously introduced "cookie" field to improve the robustness of the network by making it possible for servers to automatically detect accidental misconfiguration which results in two or more validators using the same validation key.
Consensus
This directory contains the implementation of a generic consensus algorithm. The implementation follows a CRTP design, requiring client code to implement specific functions and types to use consensus in their application. The interface is undergoing refactoring and is not yet finalized.
