v1.0.8

Changelog

v1.0.8 is a hard fork release for Core-chain mainnet.

The mainnet is expected to have a scheduled hard fork upgrade named Poseidon at block height 13,232,049. The current block generation speed forecasts this to occur around 13th April 2024 at 08:00 AM (UTC).

The Poseidon hardfork enables self custody BTC staking on Core blockchain.

The validators and full node operators on Core MainNet should switch their software version to v1.0.8 before 13th April.

Improvements

• #1 Enables self custody BTC staking on Core blockchain.

How to Run

Please refer to https://docs.coredao.org/developer/become-a-validator/validators/core-full-nodes.

How to Upgrade

• Download the appropriate version of Geth for your operating system.
• Verify the checksum, e.g., for geth_linux.
  • Run sha256sum geth_linux
  • The result should match 8640c16780e6dbe2da74c2a215be91160491a30bcd495b0d0d5bbf551f6a22a8
• Stop the old version of the Geth program.
• Replace it with the new version.
• Start the new version of the Geth program.
• Verify that the new version is correct by checking the console output, such as instance=Geth/v1.0.8-26e9bfad/linux-amd64/go1.19.13.
• Ensure that the node syncs up to the latest block successfully. For validators, confirm that the node can successfully produce blocks once elected.

v1.0.2

Changelog

Description

Release v1.0.2 is a performance release. The following three features are introduced in this release.

1. Separate Processing and State Verification.
2. Pruning AncientDB inline at runtime.
3. Double Sign Monitor

Fast Node

Fast Node is introduced in #926, it is a new syncing protocol to lower the hardware requirement and improve the syncing efficiency.

This release introduces two types of nodes to make full use of different storage, one is called fast node, and the other is called verify node. The fast node will do block processing with a flattened key-value DB, it will do all verification against blocks except the state root. The verify node receives diffhash from the fast node and then responds MPT root to assist with the state root verification.

It turns out that the fast node can slow down the storage growth by 60%~90% according to different settings and increase the syncing efficiency by about 30%. We encourage node operators who do not care about 100% state consistency to enable fast nodes by appending --tries-verify-mode none to the node command.

Note: fast node can never revert to full node.

Pruning AncientDB inline at runtime

A new flag is introduced to prune ancient undesired block data at runtime, it will discard block, receipt, header in the ancient DB to save space.

Example: geth --config ./config.toml --datadir ./node --cache 8000 --rpc.allow-unprotected-txs --txlookuplimit 0 --syncmode full --pruneancient.

Note:

once turned on, the ancient data will not be recovered again
only under '--syncmode full' mode supports --pruneancient flag

Double Sign Monitor

Add a header monitor to detect the header that was a double sign from the validator.

Enable the monitor with flag --monitor.doublesign.
e.g. geth --config ... --datadir ... --monitor.doublesign

Command Changes

After merging the BSC v1.1.19, some Flag parameters have changed, please refer to the following list.

1. --yolov3
2. --vm.ewasm
3. --vm.evm

2. --sepolia Sepolia network: pre-configured proof-of-work test network
3. --override.arrowglacier Manually specify Arrow Glacier fork-block, overriding the bundled setting
4. --override.terminaltotaldifficulty Manually specify TerminalTotalDifficulty, overriding the bundled setting
5. --rpc.evmtimeout Sets a timeout used for eth_call (0=infinite)
6. --gpo.ignoreprice Gas price below which gpo will ignore transactions
7. --metrics.influxdbv2 Enable metrics export/push to an external InfluxDB v2 database
8. --metrics.influxdb.token Token to authorize access to the database (v2 only)
9. --metrics.influxdb.bucket InfluxDB bucket name to push reported metrics to (v2 only)
10. --metrics.influxdb.organization InfluxDB organization name (v2 only)

Changed

1. --syncmode removed the fast mode
