From 85c82b50d1a84fcf82fd3e0692e81aa41470bf84 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pieter Wuille Date: Wed, 9 Aug 2017 17:48:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Avoid masking of difficulty adjustment errors by checkpoints Currently difficulty adjustment violations are not reported for chains that branch off before the last checkpoint. Change this by moving the checkpoint check after the difficulty check. --- src/validation.cpp | 42 +++++++++++++++--------------------------- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/validation.cpp b/src/validation.cpp index 405ff356f..28d45195d 100644 --- a/src/validation.cpp +++ b/src/validation.cpp @@ -2830,22 +2830,6 @@ bool CheckBlock(const CBlock& block, CValidationState& state, const Consensus::P return true; } -static bool CheckIndexAgainstCheckpoint(const CBlockIndex* pindexPrev, CValidationState& state, const CChainParams& chainparams, const uint256& hash) -{ - if (*pindexPrev->phashBlock == chainparams.GetConsensus().hashGenesisBlock) - return true; - - int nHeight = pindexPrev->nHeight+1; - // Don't accept any forks from the main chain prior to last checkpoint. - // GetLastCheckpoint finds the last checkpoint in MapCheckpoints that's in our - // MapBlockIndex. - CBlockIndex* pcheckpoint = Checkpoints::GetLastCheckpoint(chainparams.Checkpoints()); - if (pcheckpoint && nHeight < pcheckpoint->nHeight) - return state.DoS(100, error("%s: forked chain older than last checkpoint (height %d)", __func__, nHeight), REJECT_CHECKPOINT, "bad-fork-prior-to-checkpoint"); - - return true; -} - bool IsWitnessEnabled(const CBlockIndex* pindexPrev, const Consensus::Params& params) { LOCK(cs_main); @@ -2911,14 +2895,26 @@ std::vector GenerateCoinbaseCommitment(CBlock& block, const CBloc /** Context-dependent validity checks. * By "context", we mean only the previous block headers, but not the UTXO * set; UTXO-related validity checks are done in ConnectBlock(). */ -static bool ContextualCheckBlockHeader(const CBlockHeader& block, CValidationState& state, const Consensus::Params& consensusParams, const CBlockIndex* pindexPrev, int64_t nAdjustedTime) +static bool ContextualCheckBlockHeader(const CBlockHeader& block, CValidationState& state, const CChainParams& params, const CBlockIndex* pindexPrev, int64_t nAdjustedTime) { assert(pindexPrev != NULL); const int nHeight = pindexPrev->nHeight + 1; + // Check proof of work + const Consensus::Params& consensusParams = params.GetConsensus(); if (block.nBits != GetNextWorkRequired(pindexPrev, &block, consensusParams)) return state.DoS(100, false, REJECT_INVALID, "bad-diffbits", false, "incorrect proof of work"); + // Check against checkpoints + if (fCheckpointsEnabled) { + // Don't accept any forks from the main chain prior to last checkpoint. + // GetLastCheckpoint finds the last checkpoint in MapCheckpoints that's in our + // MapBlockIndex. + CBlockIndex* pcheckpoint = Checkpoints::GetLastCheckpoint(params.Checkpoints()); + if (pcheckpoint && nHeight < pcheckpoint->nHeight) + return state.DoS(100, error("%s: forked chain older than last checkpoint (height %d)", __func__, nHeight), REJECT_CHECKPOINT, "bad-fork-prior-to-checkpoint"); + } + // Check timestamp against prev if (block.GetBlockTime() <= pindexPrev->GetMedianTimePast()) return state.Invalid(false, REJECT_INVALID, "time-too-old", "block's timestamp is too early"); @@ -3049,12 +3045,7 @@ static bool AcceptBlockHeader(const CBlockHeader& block, CValidationState& state pindexPrev = (*mi).second; if (pindexPrev->nStatus & BLOCK_FAILED_MASK) return state.DoS(100, error("%s: prev block invalid", __func__), REJECT_INVALID, "bad-prevblk"); - - assert(pindexPrev); - if (fCheckpointsEnabled && !CheckIndexAgainstCheckpoint(pindexPrev, state, chainparams, hash)) - return error("%s: CheckIndexAgainstCheckpoint(): %s", __func__, state.GetRejectReason().c_str()); - - if (!ContextualCheckBlockHeader(block, state, chainparams.GetConsensus(), pindexPrev, GetAdjustedTime())) + if (!ContextualCheckBlockHeader(block, state, chainparams, pindexPrev, GetAdjustedTime())) return error("%s: Consensus::ContextualCheckBlockHeader: %s, %s", __func__, hash.ToString(), FormatStateMessage(state)); } if (pindex == NULL) @@ -3203,16 +3194,13 @@ bool TestBlockValidity(CValidationState& state, const CChainParams& chainparams, { AssertLockHeld(cs_main); assert(pindexPrev && pindexPrev == chainActive.Tip()); - if (fCheckpointsEnabled && !CheckIndexAgainstCheckpoint(pindexPrev, state, chainparams, block.GetHash())) - return error("%s: CheckIndexAgainstCheckpoint(): %s", __func__, state.GetRejectReason().c_str()); - CCoinsViewCache viewNew(pcoinsTip); CBlockIndex indexDummy(block); indexDummy.pprev = pindexPrev; indexDummy.nHeight = pindexPrev->nHeight + 1; // NOTE: CheckBlockHeader is called by CheckBlock - if (!ContextualCheckBlockHeader(block, state, chainparams.GetConsensus(), pindexPrev, GetAdjustedTime())) + if (!ContextualCheckBlockHeader(block, state, chainparams, pindexPrev, GetAdjustedTime())) return error("%s: Consensus::ContextualCheckBlockHeader: %s", __func__, FormatStateMessage(state)); if (!CheckBlock(block, state, chainparams.GetConsensus(), fCheckPOW, fCheckMerkleRoot)) return error("%s: Consensus::CheckBlock: %s", __func__, FormatStateMessage(state));
