Detailed Description

Chainstate stores and provides an API to update our local knowledge of the current best chain.

Eventually, the API here is targeted at being exposed externally as a consumable library, so any functions added must only call other class member functions, pure functions in other parts of the consensus library, callbacks via the validation interface, or read/write-to-disk functions (eventually this will also be via callbacks).

Anything that is contingent on the current tip of the chain is stored here, whereas block information and metadata independent of the current tip is kept in BlockManager.

◆ GUARDED_BY() [1/2]

bool m_disabled Chainstate::GUARDED_BY ( ::cs_main  )
inlineprotected

This toggle exists for use when doing background validation for UTXO snapshots.

In the expected case, it is set once the background validation chain reaches the same height as the base of the snapshot and its UTXO set is found to hash to the expected assumeutxo value. It signals that we should no longer connect blocks to the background chainstate. When set on the background validation chainstate, it signifies that we have fully validated the snapshot chainstate.

In the unlikely case that the snapshot chainstate is found to be invalid, this is set to true on the snapshot chainstate.

◆ MaybeUpdateMempoolForReorg()

void Chainstate::MaybeUpdateMempoolForReorg ( DisconnectedBlockTransactions disconnectpool,
bool  fAddToMempool 
)
private

Make mempool consistent after a reorg, by re-adding or recursively erasing disconnected block transactions from the mempool, and also removing any other transactions from the mempool that are no longer valid given the new tip/height.

Note: we assume that disconnectpool only contains transactions that are NOT confirmed in the current chain nor already in the mempool (otherwise, in-mempool descendants of such transactions would be removed).

Passing fAddToMempool=false will skip trying to add the transactions back, and instead just erase from the mempool as needed.

Member Data Documentation

◆ ChainstateManager

util::Result<void> InvalidateCoinsDBOnDisk () EXCLUSIVE_LOCKS_REQUIRED( friend Chainstate::ChainstateManager
private

In case of an invalid snapshot, rename the coins leveldb directory so that it can be examined for issue diagnosis.

Definition at line 817 of file validation.h.

◆ ConnectBlock

bool Chainstate::ConnectBlock

Find the best known block, and make it the tip of the block chain.

Apply the effects of this block (with given index) on the UTXO set represented by coins.

The result is either failure or an activated best chain. pblock is either nullptr or a pointer to a block that is already loaded (to avoid loading it again from disk).

ActivateBestChain is split into steps (see ActivateBestChainStep) so that we avoid holding cs_main for an extended period of time; the length of this call may be quite long during reindexing or a substantial reorg.

May not be called with cs_main held. May not be called in a validationinterface callback.

Note that if this is called while a snapshot chainstate is active, and if it is called on a background chainstate whose tip has reached the base block of the snapshot, its execution will take MINUTES while it hashes the background UTXO set to verify the assumeutxo value the snapshot was activated with. cs_main will be held during this time.

Returns
true unless a system error occurred

Validity checks that depend on the UTXO set are also done; ConnectBlock() can fail if those validity checks fail (among other reasons).
