ALWAYS_ACTIVE

constexpr int64_t Consensus::BIP9Deployment::ALWAYS_ACTIVE = -1

staticconstexpr

Special value for nStartTime indicating that the deployment is always active.

This is useful for testing, as it means tests don't need to deal with the activation process (which takes at least 3 BIP9 intervals). Only tests that specifically test the behaviour during activation cannot use this.

Definition at line 73 of file params.h.

bit

int Consensus::BIP9Deployment::bit {28}

Bit position to select the particular bit in nVersion.

Definition at line 47 of file params.h.

min_activation_height

int Consensus::BIP9Deployment::min_activation_height {0}

If lock in occurs, delay activation until at least this block height.

Note that activation will only occur on a retarget boundary.

Definition at line 56 of file params.h.

NEVER_ACTIVE

constexpr int64_t Consensus::BIP9Deployment::NEVER_ACTIVE = -2

staticconstexpr

Special value for nStartTime indicating that the deployment is never active.

This is useful for integrating the code changes for a new feature prior to deploying it on some or all networks.

Definition at line 78 of file params.h.

NO_TIMEOUT

constexpr int64_t Consensus::BIP9Deployment::NO_TIMEOUT = std::numeric_limits<int64_t>::max()

staticconstexpr

Constant for nTimeout very far in the future.

Definition at line 67 of file params.h.

nStartTime

int64_t Consensus::BIP9Deployment::nStartTime {NEVER_ACTIVE}

Start MedianTime for version bits miner confirmation.

Can be a date in the past

Definition at line 49 of file params.h.

nTimeout

int64_t Consensus::BIP9Deployment::nTimeout {NEVER_ACTIVE}

Timeout/expiry MedianTime for the deployment attempt.

Definition at line 51 of file params.h.

period

uint32_t Consensus::BIP9Deployment::period {2016}

Period of blocks to check signalling in (usually retarget period, ie params.DifficultyAdjustmentInterval())

Definition at line 58 of file params.h.

threshold

uint32_t Consensus::BIP9Deployment::threshold {1916}

Minimum blocks including miner confirmation of the total of 2016 blocks in a retargeting period, which is also used for BIP9 deployments.

Examples: 1916 for 95%, 1512 for testchains.
