Release notes:
Stability improvements
- Overlay flow control not enabled by default for now as it’s a major update to how peers communicate with each other for better performance regardless of peer types.
- Clear state if stellar-core aborts while applying buckets this fixes an edge case that could lead the ledger in a bad state if the node was stopped at the wrong time.
- Log as much uncaught-exception info as we can, fixes #3155.
- Actually enforce SHA256 contract
- Rename maxTxSize to maxTxSetSize.
- Cleanup logic for checking protocol versions.
- Rename isString32Valid to isStringValid
- Log exception as INFO (instead ERROR) for older protocol version
- Only git clean ignored files in Dockerfile.testing
- Simulation updates and fixes
- Add TrustFlagsOpFrameBase to Visual Studio project.
- Return early in updateEntryIfRecorded if entry is not an offer
- Update catch2 to 2.13.8
- Unify trustline op
- Bump spdlog1.9.2
New features
- Make validators from the same home domain preferred peers. This implements a best practice that validators within the same organization should utilize internal bandwidth when possible.
- Adding an option to halt on txINTERNAL_ERROR. - this allows to configure certain nodes to never externalize ledgers that may have run into unexpected problems.
