We do not need to be able to calculate multiple SignatureHash versions for a
single transaction format; instead, we use the transaction format to determine
the SigVersion.
The consensus branch ID *does* need to be passed in from the outside, as only
the caller knows the context in which the SignatureHash is being calculated
(ie. mempool acceptance vs. block validation).
JoinSplit signature verification has been moved into ContextualCheckTransaction,
where the consensus branch ID can be obtained.
The argument to the sign command for zcash-tx has been modified to take a height
in addition to the optional sigtype flags.
Symptom: When running all tests, the test suite passed. But when running the
sighash tests on their own, the test suite segfaulted.
Cause: The sighash tests depend on the proving parameters being accessible, but
BasicTestingSetup doesn't load them.
- implement find_value() function for UniValue
- replace all Array/Value/Object types with UniValues, remove JSON Spirit to UniValue wrapper
- remove JSON Spirit sources
Transactions of version 2 and above contain a `vpour` field which is a vector of `CPourTx`
objects that embody our protocol. We introduce serialization primitives for boost::array
(we intend for changing the amount of inputs and outputs in the circuit to be simple).
SIGHASH_* operations hash this field like any other for now.
Make sure that chainparams and logging is properly initialized. Doing
this for every test may be overkill, but this initialization is so
simple that that does not matter.
This should fix the travis issues.
If uint256() constructor takes a string, uint256(0) will become
dangerous when uint256 does not take integers anymore (it will go
through std::string(const char*) making a NULL string, and the explicit
keyword is no help).
SignatureHash and its test function SignatureHashOld
return uint256(1) as a special error signaling value.
Return a local static constant with the same value instead.
- Add license headers to source files (years based on commit dates)
in `src/test` as well as `qa`
- Add `README.md` to `src/test/data` specifying MIT license
Fixes#3848
Instead of building a full copy of a CTransaction being signed, and
then modifying bits and pieces until its fits the form necessary
for computing the signature hash, use a wrapper serializer that
only serializes the necessary bits on-the-fly.
This makes it easier to see which data is actually being hash,
reduces load on the heap, and also marginally improves performances
(around 3-4us/sigcheck here). The performance improvements are much
larger for large transactions, though.
The old implementation of SignatureHash is moved to a unit tests,
to test whether the old and new algorithm result in the same value
for randomly-constructed transactions.
