v1.0.0-beta.5

[jolestar]

Network protocol upgrade, optimize transaction broadcast protocol; Support stratum mining pool protocol; Move contract upgrade method optimization: support incompatible upgrade through governance, and implement hard fork through on-chain governance (sip-4).

Note: starcoin nodes should upgrade to the latest version as soon as possible, a hard fork test will be conducted soon, which will cause nodes with older versions to be unable to execute the latest blocks.

• [cmd] Added PeerWatcher command to listen for peer changes on the p2p network via Light Node Protocol #2379
• [move] Implement merkle tree proof verifier, Ethereum storage proof verifier via Move contract, prepare for future offchain data validation and cross-chain with Ethereum #2418 #2436
• [stratum] The node has built-in support for the stratum pool protocol, allowing pool clients to connect directly to starcoin nodes #2437
• [sip] Implementing sip-4: SIP as a feature flag for hard forking via on-chain governance #2421
• [vm] Move VM upgrade to version 1.2 #2387
• [network] Add transaction hash broadcast, optimize transaction broadcast efficiency #2425
• [stdlib] Move contract upgrade support via governance for incompatible upgrades, preparing for special case upgrade needs #2422
• [config] Fix a config compatibility bug, ensure config file compatibility #2439
• [network] Filter nodes that do not support the p2p network rpc protocol (e.g. light nodes) when synchronizing, and fix a bug in handshake protocol message handling #2442
• [proxima] Reset proxima network, proxima network supports the latest version of nodes #2433

中文说明

网络协议升级，优化交易广播机制；支持 stratum 矿池协议；合约升级方式优化：支持通过治理方式实现不兼容性升级，以及实现通过链上治理进行硬分叉(sip-4).

注意: 节点请尽快升级到最新版本，即将进行一次硬分叉测试，会导致旧版本的节点无法执行最新区块。

• [cmd] 新增 PeerWatcher 命令，通过轻节点协议接入 p2p 网络中，可监听 p2p 网络上的 peer 变化 #2379
• [move] 通过 Move 合约实现 merkle tree proof verifier, Ethereum storage proof verifier, 为未来 offchain 数据验证以及和 Ethereum 跨链做准备 #2418 #2436
• [stratum] 节点内置支持 stratum 矿池协议，矿池客户端可以直接连接到 starcoin 节点 #2437
• [sip] 实现 sip-4: SIP 作为功能开关实现通过链上治理进行硬分叉 #2421
• [vm] Move VM 升级到 1.2 版本 #2387
• [network] 新增交易 hash 广播，优化交易广播效率 #2425
• [stdlib] 合约升级支持通过治理方式实现不兼容性升级，为特殊情况下的升级需求做准备 #2422
• [config] 修复一个配置兼容性 bug，保证配置文件的兼容性 #2439
• [network] 同步时过滤不支持 p2p network rpc 协议的节点(比如轻节点)，以及修复握手协议消息处理的一个 bug #2442
• [proxima] 重置 proxima network，proxima 网络支持最新版本的节点 #2433
