Building with docker is arguably easier and more familiar to most people
than either kvm, or lxc.
This commit also relaxes the back compat requirement a bit. 32 bit linux
now uses glibc version 2.0. Also, the docker shell could not handle gcc arguments
containing spaces, so the explicit '-DFELT_TYPE' declaration was dropped.
Lastly, this removes some packages from the osx descriptor.
RPC connections now have optional tranparent SSL.
An optional private key and certificate file can be passed,
using the --{rpc,daemon}-ssl-private-key and
--{rpc,daemon}-ssl-certificate options. Those have as
argument a path to a PEM format private private key and
certificate, respectively.
If not given, a temporary self signed certificate will be used.
SSL can be enabled or disabled using --{rpc}-ssl, which
accepts autodetect (default), disabled or enabled.
Access can be restricted to particular certificates using the
--rpc-ssl-allowed-certificates, which takes a list of
paths to PEM encoded certificates. This can allow a wallet to
connect to only the daemon they think they're connected to,
by forcing SSL and listing the paths to the known good
certificates.
To generate long term certificates:
openssl genrsa -out /tmp/KEY 4096
openssl req -new -key /tmp/KEY -out /tmp/REQ
openssl x509 -req -days 999999 -sha256 -in /tmp/REQ -signkey /tmp/KEY -out /tmp/CERT
/tmp/KEY is the private key, and /tmp/CERT is the certificate,
both in PEM format. /tmp/REQ can be removed. Adjust the last
command to set expiration date, etc, as needed. It doesn't
make a whole lot of sense for monero anyway, since most servers
will run with one time temporary self signed certificates anyway.
SSL support is transparent, so all communication is done on the
existing ports, with SSL autodetection. This means you can start
using an SSL daemon now, but you should not enforce SSL yet or
nothing will talk to you.
- Support for ".onion" in --add-exclusive-node and --add-peer
- Add --anonymizing-proxy for outbound Tor connections
- Add --anonymous-inbounds for inbound Tor connections
- Support for sharing ".onion" addresses over Tor connections
- Support for broadcasting transactions received over RPC exclusively
over Tor (else broadcast over public IP when Tor not enabled).
The blockchain prunes seven eighths of prunable tx data.
This saves about two thirds of the blockchain size, while
keeping the node useful as a sync source for an eighth
of the blockchain.
No other data is currently pruned.
There are three ways to prune a blockchain:
- run monerod with --prune-blockchain
- run "prune_blockchain" in the monerod console
- run the monero-blockchain-prune utility
The first two will prune in place. Due to how LMDB works, this
will not reduce the blockchain size on disk. Instead, it will
mark parts of the file as free, so that future data will use
that free space, causing the file to not grow until free space
grows scarce.
The third way will create a second database, a pruned copy of
the original one. Since this is a new file, this one will be
smaller than the original one.
Once the database is pruned, it will stay pruned as it syncs.
That is, there is no need to use --prune-blockchain again, etc.
This includes more fine grained configure options and skipping the
openssl and zlib dependencies when compiling qt. The zlib and libevent
packages are removed.
Number matching semantics are slightly changed: since this is used
as a filter to check whether a number is signed and/or floating
point, we can speed this up further. strto* functions are called
afterwards and will error out where necessary. We now also accept
numbers like .4 which were not accepted before.
The strto* calls on a boost::string_ref will not access unallocated
memory since the parsers always stop at the first bad character,
and the original string is zero terminated.
in arbitrary time measurement units for some arbitrary test case:
match_number2: 235 -> 70
match_word2: 330 -> 108

- docker protobuf dependencies, cross-compilation
- device/trezor protobuf build fixes, try_compile
- libusb built under all platforms, used by trezor for direct connect
Depends still contained some leftovers, like the `wallet` target that
included bdb from bitcoin. This commit removes these unneeded targets,
the miniupnpc package and the berkeley db package. Reflect the changes
in the README as well.

It comes before the logger is initialized, so gets displayed
even though it should not be by default, and apparenly comes
too early for (some versions of) Android, where it crashes.
Turns out getting the global shared_ptr hits the profile,
and passing it around still keeps it at close to ~1% CPU,
which is too much for mostly silent logging.
Leak the object instead, which is even safer for late logging.
- webusb transport based on libusb added. Provides direct access to Trezor via USB, no need for Trezor bridge.
- trezor protocol message handler improved, no recursion used. Ready for upcoming integration tests.
- libusb (for docker) bumped from v1.0.9 to v1.0.22, newer version required for webusb transport, for device enumeration.
- cmake improvements and fixes. Cmake Trezor checks are moved to a dedicated CheckTrezor.cmake file. In case of a problem Trezor is excluded from build.
- ifdefs made consistent to Ledger.
- UDP Transport enumeration disabled by default in release mode
This prevents exceptions from showing up in various awkward
places such as dtors, since the only exception that can be
thrown is a lock failure, and nothing handles a lock failure
anyway.
The version prefix 'v' should just be set constantly.
Reflect this change in the README as well.
This should allow building commits as well, if a commit
is passed in instead of a tag.
