Notable changes
|
||||
===============
|
||||
|
||||
Sapling network upgrade
|
||||
-----------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The consensus code preparations for the Sapling network upgrade, as described
|
||||
in [ZIP 243](https://github.com/zcash/zips/blob/master/zip-0243.rst) and the
|
||||
[Sapling spec](https://github.com/zcash/zips/blob/master/protocol/sapling.pdf)
|
||||
are finished and included in this release. Sapling support in the wallet and
|
||||
RPC is ongoing, and is expected to land in master over the next few weeks.
|
||||
|
||||
The [Sapling MPC](https://blog.z.cash/announcing-the-sapling-mpc/) is currently
|
||||
working on producing the final Sapling parameters. In the meantime, Sapling will
|
||||
activate on testnet with dummy Sapling parameters at height XXXXXX. This
|
||||
activation will be temporary, and the testnet will be rolled back by version
|
||||
2.0.0 so that both mainnet and testnet will be using the same parameters.
|
||||
Users who want to continue testing Overwinter should continue to run version
|
||||
1.1.0 on testnet, and then upgrade to 2.0.0 (which will be released after
|
||||
Overwinter activates).
|
||||
|
||||
Sapling can also be activated at a specific height in regtest mode by
|
||||
setting the config options `-nuparams=5ba81b19:HEIGHT -nuparams=76b809bb:HEIGHT`.
|
||||
These config options will change when the testnet is rolled back for 2.0.0
|
||||
(because the branch ID for Sapling will change, due to us following the safe
|
||||
upgrade conventions we introduced in Overwinter).
|
||||
|
||||
Users running testnet or regtest nodes will need to run
|
||||
`./zcutil/fetch-params.sh --testnet` (for users building from source) or
|
||||
`zcash-fetch-params --testnet` (for binary / Debian users).
|
||||
|
||||
As a reminder, because the Sapling activation height is not yet specified for
|
||||
mainnet, version 1.1.1 will behave similarly as other pre-Sapling releases even
|
||||
after a future activation of Sapling on the network. Upgrading from 1.1.1 will
|
||||
be required in order to follow the Sapling network upgrade on mainnet.
|
||||
|
||||
Sapling transaction format
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Once Sapling has activated, transactions must use the new v4 format (including
|
||||
coinbase transactions). All RPC methods that create new transactions (such as
|
||||
`createrawtransaction` and `getblocktemplate`) will create v4 transactions once
|
||||
the Sapling activation height has been reached.
|
||||
|
||||
zcash-cli: arguments privacy
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The RPC command line client gained a new argument, `-stdin`
|
||||
to read extra arguments from standard input, one per line until EOF/Ctrl-D.
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
$ src/zcash-cli -stdin walletpassphrase
|
||||
mysecretcode
|
||||
120
|
||||
^D (Ctrl-D)
|
||||
|
||||
It is recommended to use this for sensitive information such as private keys, as
|
||||
command-line arguments can usually be read from the process table by any user on
|
||||
the system.
|
||||
|
||||
Asm representations of scriptSig signatures now contain SIGHASH type decodes
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The `asm` property of each scriptSig now contains the decoded signature hash
|
||||
type for each signature that provides a valid defined hash type.
|
||||
|
||||
The following items contain assembly representations of scriptSig signatures
|
||||
and are affected by this change:
|
||||
|
||||
- RPC `getrawtransaction`
|
||||
- RPC `decoderawtransaction`
|
||||
- REST `/rest/tx/` (JSON format)
|
||||
- REST `/rest/block/` (JSON format when including extended tx details)
|
||||
- `zcash-tx -json`
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the `scriptSig.asm` property of a transaction input that
|
||||
previously showed an assembly representation of:
|
||||
|
||||
304502207fa7a6d1e0ee81132a269ad84e68d695483745cde8b541e3bf630749894e342a022100c1f7ab20e13e22fb95281a870f3dcf38d782e53023ee313d741ad0cfbc0c509001
|
||||
|
||||
now shows as:
|
||||
|
||||
304502207fa7a6d1e0ee81132a269ad84e68d695483745cde8b541e3bf630749894e342a022100c1f7ab20e13e22fb95281a870f3dcf38d782e53023ee313d741ad0cfbc0c5090[ALL]
|
||||
|
||||
Note that the output of the RPC `decodescript` did not change because it is
|
||||
configured specifically to process scriptPubKey and not scriptSig scripts.
