3 2017-03-28 02:01:15 0|jcorgan|yes. i had planned to attend but had something come up at the last minute.
4 2017-03-28 02:02:10 0|jcorgan|well, i'm sure it will be recorded in any case

7 2017-03-28 02:08:24 0|jcorgan|ah well.

41 2017-03-28 15:57:34 0|BlueMatt|so i can review :)
42 2017-03-28 17:11:42 0|spudowiar|Does Bitcoin Core use any IPC?
43 2017-03-28 17:12:14 0|spudowiar|For signing, we could have a signer process (which could talk to a hardware wallet, a remote computer, etc.) which communicates with the wallet over IPC
44 2017-03-28 17:20:14 0|TD-Linux|spudowiar, it only has the RPC interface and zeromq
45 2017-03-28 17:20:33 0|spudowiar|TD-Linux: I was thinking about the RPC interface, but I don't think running a server would be a good idea
46 2017-03-28 17:20:45 0|spudowiar|TD-Linux: What does it use ZMQ for?
47 2017-03-28 17:20:55 0|TD-Linux|there was a previous BIP proposal for a URL-style communication for hw wallets: https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2016-August/013008.html
48 2017-03-28 17:21:19 0|spudowiar|If that's jonasschnelli's proposal, I've read that :)
49 2017-03-28 17:21:42 0|TD-Linux|spudowiar, it's for "push notifications" of events
50 2017-03-28 17:21:53 0|spudowiar|I see
51 2017-03-28 17:22:36 0|TD-Linux|spudowiar, yeah. I'm personally not a huge fan of the URL style communication method...
52 2017-03-28 17:22:43 0|spudowiar|Me neither
53 2017-03-28 17:23:10 0|spudowiar|I want a separate process (I don't want any hardware wallet stuff in Bitcoin Core)
54 2017-03-28 17:23:25 0|spudowiar|We could have something like bitcoin-trezor-signd
55 2017-03-28 17:23:44 0|TD-Linux|I think it'd actually be really neat if bitcoin core supported hw wallets out of the box
56 2017-03-28 17:24:08 0|spudowiar|Of course, but it should be a separate process
57 2017-03-28 17:24:27 0|spudowiar|e.g. Core starts `bitcoin-trezor-signd`, communicates over IPC
58 2017-03-28 17:24:48 0|TD-Linux|what's the main purpose of the separate process?
59 2017-03-28 17:25:06 0|spudowiar|I don't think it's a good idea to have the actual code in Core
60 2017-03-28 17:25:23 0|spudowiar|gmaxwell: Since you're on GitHub RIGHT NOW talking about IPC, what IPC method do you suggest :)
61 2017-03-28 17:25:23 0|TD-Linux|for security reasons?
62 2017-03-28 17:25:43 0|spudowiar|For a number of reasons, security being one of them
63 2017-03-28 17:25:56 0|TD-Linux|if you want to do IPC for security, you also need sandboxing or some sort of isolation between the two processes
64 2017-03-28 17:25:58 0|spudowiar|You'd have to add dependencies on software like hidapi, etc.
65 2017-03-28 17:26:02 0|luke-jr|TD-Linux: it'd be nice if hw wallets could just distribute plugins
66 2017-03-28 17:26:11 0|spudowiar|luke-jr: That would work with my method
67 2017-03-28 17:26:13 0|spudowiar|Ooh
68 2017-03-28 17:26:20 0|spudowiar|Doesn't Bitcoin Core use Protocol Buffers for payment requests?
69 2017-03-28 17:26:26 0|spudowiar|We could use Protocol Buffers?
70 2017-03-28 17:26:28 0|gmaxwell|DO NOT USE PROTOBUF
71 2017-03-28 17:26:47 0|spudowiar|Ok :)
72 2017-03-28 17:26:49 0|spudowiar|Why?
73 2017-03-28 17:26:57 0|spudowiar|I feel like I've been told off ;)
74 2017-03-28 17:27:03 0|gmaxwell|As you should.
75 2017-03-28 17:27:04 0|gmaxwell|:P
76 2017-03-28 17:27:10 0|luke-jr|use Perl and put a Perl interpreter in Core
77 2017-03-28 17:27:11 0|luke-jr|/s
78 2017-03-28 17:27:29 0|spudowiar|luke-jr: I kind of think Java would be better? Know any Perl JVM implementations? /s :)
79 2017-03-28 17:27:34 0|gmaxwell|spudowiar: what you're discussing has been discussed a few times in the past. You don't need a freeking seralization library to send a simple 'sign this'
80 2017-03-28 17:27:35 0|TD-Linux|luke-jr, yes, though that's an extra step that would be nice to have automated
81 2017-03-28 17:27:49 0|spudowiar|gmaxwell: Well, you can't send the transaction, you need a data format
82 2017-03-28 17:28:10 0|spudowiar|The hardware wallet needs to know the key path and other metadata it will store with the wallet (like account number, etc.)
83 2017-03-28 17:28:56 0|spudowiar|And UTXO ids
84 2017-03-28 17:29:38 0|gmaxwell|spudowiar: yes, so just seralize it. this isn't rocket science. We manage to run the whole network without any wonky seralization libraries.
85 2017-03-28 17:30:09 0|TD-Linux|I'd really love to have a standard USB protocol, maybe I am overreaching :)
86 2017-03-28 17:30:20 0|gmaxwell|die.
87 2017-03-28 17:31:29 0|gmaxwell|somewhere I wrote some requiremets for a suggestion that you be able to add to the configuration a path to an executable to run for signing, and it would just invoke it and communicate over stdin, to tell it what to sign. Said executable could do whatever it wanted, pop up confirmation dialogs to get passwords and decrypt keys, connect out over usb using whatever protocol you want, etc.
88 2017-03-28 17:32:49 0|gmaxwell|this keeps the implementation of whatever weird interface you want to use outside of bitcoin.
89 2017-03-28 17:32:50 0|spudowiar|gmaxwell: Serialize it with... what? That's all I'm asking you :)
90 2017-03-28 17:33:03 0|spudowiar|gmaxwell: That's the sort of thing I was thinking of
91 2017-03-28 17:33:11 0|spudowiar|I meant serialization earlier, not IPC when I asked you :)
92 2017-03-28 17:33:33 0|gmaxwell|spudowiar: the serialization code already in the software.
93 2017-03-28 17:33:47 0|spudowiar|So, the C* family of classes?
94 2017-03-28 17:34:21 0|spudowiar|Well, base_blob
95 2017-03-28 17:36:08 0|gmaxwell|spudowiar: this is like ... programming 101 stuff. Define a structure for what you need to communicate and then make a seralizer for it. This is simplified by the fact that we already have seralizers for most or all of the fields you need to send (like a transaction).
96 2017-03-28 17:36:34 0|spudowiar|gmaxwell: I know how to serialize, but this is more of a "this is your codebase, how do you do stuff around here"
97 2017-03-28 17:37:23 0|gmaxwell|spudowiar: look at the codebase to answer that! we don't do things by pulling in gigantic libraries that barely do what we need and only inefficiently in other to replace what is probably 5 lines of code. :P
98 2017-03-28 17:37:53 0|spudowiar|Anyway, sorry for being annoying, it takes me a bit of time to get familiar with large codebases
99 2017-03-28 17:38:23 0|spudowiar|Grrr, CExtKey and CExtPubKey share no interface :( This means there's a ton of repeated code :(
100 2017-03-28 17:44:45 0|bsm117532|bitcoin.sipa.be appears to be down. I can't check my daily segwit activation stats!
101 2017-03-28 17:46:27 0|sipa|spudowiar: look at the Serialize and Unserialize methods that some classes have
102 2017-03-28 17:46:47 0|spudowiar|sipa: Ah, so it's all the base_blob stuff, gotcha! :)
103 2017-03-28 17:47:30 0|spudowiar|I should just be able to create something like an ExternalSignatureCreator : BaseSignatureCreator
104 2017-03-28 17:47:58 0|sipa|eh, maybe
105 2017-03-28 17:48:05 0|sipa|i dodn't read the conversation above
106 2017-03-28 17:48:57 0|spudowiar|sipa: Basically, execute other program, feed it serialized transaction data, (external program talks to HW wallet), verify signature
107 2017-03-28 17:49:52 0|spudowiar|Probably : TransactionSignatureCreator, rather than Base
108 2017-03-28 17:56:05 0|spudowiar|Thanks sipa & gmaxwell for all the help :)
109 2017-03-28 17:56:22 0|spudowiar|Now I know what to grep for, I can infer the rest :)
110 2017-03-28 18:10:32 0|sipa|bsm117532: my vps provider claims it was running a bitcoin miner and turned it off

112 2017-03-28 18:11:51 0|bsm117532|Sounds like they need to be hit with a cluestick. Moving sounds like a good plan...
113 2017-03-28 18:12:33 0|sipa|it is not even the first time they claim this
114 2017-03-28 18:12:57 0|sipa|though in previous occasions they at least asked for an explanation instead of just turning it off
