15 2017-11-04 12:34:23 0|Provoostenator|Is v0.15.1 simply what was called v0.15.0.2 before? I.e. some tweaks to deal with the upcoming fork, but not full SegWit support?
16 2017-11-04 12:35:01 0|Provoostenator|And also, is it useful if I run Gitian on this?
17 2017-11-04 12:42:11 0|wxss|Provoostenator: to your first question, v0.15.1 (previously called v0.15.0.2) is the extra release to better deal with the 2X shitshow. Segwit support had to be delayed because of this to the next release, likely to be called v0.15.2

78 2017-11-04 15:27:34 0|achow101|does not necessarily need to be your email, could just be your username or some name that GPG recognizes

80 2017-11-04 15:28:16 0|achow101|yeah
81 2017-11-04 15:29:29 0|achow101|if that doesn't match your PGP key, you can use --detach-sign and sign it later. the signer name is used to organize the sigs into folders with each signer's name so having something like github username for that is better
82 2017-11-04 15:30:21 0|Provoostenator|So I should either move my GPG key onto the VM, or just do the actual signing on my machine?

91 2017-11-04 16:34:02 0|donaloconnor|Can anyone point to me where in the code bitcoin core checks if the block hash is valid? - I can see it checks POW in CheckBlockHeader
92 2017-11-04 16:34:22 0|sipa|what does that mean?
93 2017-11-04 16:34:23 0|donaloconnor|(FYI - I'm learning the protocol and stepping through the code)
94 2017-11-04 16:34:34 0|sipa|as in, what do you mean by valid?
95 2017-11-04 16:35:04 0|donaloconnor|the hash the miners generate for a block
96 2017-11-04 16:35:30 0|sipa|which validity rule, i mean? difficulty, pow, merkle root commitment, ...?
97 2017-11-04 16:37:49 0|sipa|and i can be a bit pedantic: the hash is computed - it's not that miners "claim" it has a certain hash; it's just how we identify blocks
98 2017-11-04 16:37:58 0|sipa|by definition the hash itself is always valid
99 2017-11-04 16:38:14 0|sipa|of course, there are many rules that the block has to satisfy
100 2017-11-04 16:38:33 0|donaloconnor|I guess it's pow? - I'm not entirely sure... apologies I'm learning. Miners generate the block hash to find one that satisfies the difficulty. I mean, where does bitcoin core check that this hash is actually valid (ie: hashing the block again results int he same hash)
101 2017-11-04 16:38:50 0|sipa|it does not verify that anywhere
102 2017-11-04 16:38:56 0|sipa|nobody claims a block has a certain hash
103 2017-11-04 16:39:17 0|sipa|the block itself is propagated
104 2017-11-04 16:39:29 0|sipa|and to be valid, its hash has to satisfy PoW
105 2017-11-04 16:39:48 0|sipa|(but that's only one out of dozens of validity criteria)
106 2017-11-04 16:44:50 0|donaloconnor|my understanding was miners modified parts of the coinbase text + nonce in order to find something that will result in a hash that satisfies pow/difficulty (blocks start with 0000000000000000003) now. I guess i'm asking, what's stopping someone generating a hash that begins with enough zeros that isn't actually the hash of the block header?
107 2017-11-04 16:45:02 0|donaloconnor|I guess i'm missing something here, sorry if I'm sounding silly ;)
108 2017-11-04 16:45:15 0|sipa|well then the block will be invalid
109 2017-11-04 16:45:28 0|donaloconnor|well that's what I mean... where does it check that
110 2017-11-04 16:45:35 0|sipa|perhaps we're arguing semantics
111 2017-11-04 16:45:59 0|sipa|but there is no need to check whether the block matches its claimed hash - nobody ever claims it has a particular hash
112 2017-11-04 16:46:08 0|sipa|the hash is computed from the block
113 2017-11-04 16:46:27 0|sipa|the rule is _for a block to be valid_ that its hash is below the target implied by the difficulty
114 2017-11-04 16:46:39 0|donaloconnor|maybe. I'm looking at ProcessNewBlock and trying to find out where it validates that the hash is infact a valid hash of the block contents.
115 2017-11-04 16:46:39 0|sipa|and you've already found where that is checked
116 2017-11-04 16:46:49 0|aj|donaloconnor: nodes don't communicate the hashes directly, the communicate the headers (and blocks) and then work out what the hash is
117 2017-11-04 16:46:53 0|sipa|the hash is always the hash of the block contents
118 2017-11-04 16:46:57 0|donaloconnor|ahhh
119 2017-11-04 16:46:58 0|sipa|it is defined as such
120 2017-11-04 16:47:01 0|donaloconnor|maybe that's it
121 2017-11-04 16:47:03 0|donaloconnor|sorry
122 2017-11-04 16:47:19 0|donaloconnor|now I understand...
123 2017-11-04 16:48:07 0|donaloconnor|uint256 hash = block.GetHash(); << this is calculated by the nodes and not transmitted over the wire
124 2017-11-04 16:49:56 0|sipa|exactly
125 2017-11-04 16:50:20 0|donaloconnor|sipa/aj - thanks for the information.
126 2017-11-04 17:03:29 0|fobban|I'm running (or trying to run) bitcoin-core on arch linux but ever since v0.15 I get a CPU hardware error after a few minutes which causes the computer to reboot. I redownloaded the blockchain but a few seconds after it was complete I got the error again.
127 2017-11-04 17:03:51 0|sipa|sounds like your CPU is overheating
128 2017-11-04 17:03:58 0|fobban|I've got a i7-6700k. Never got these hardware errors before and I only get them once I start bitcoin core again
129 2017-11-04 17:04:25 0|sipa|bitcoin core tends to stress CPUs far more than usual desktop software
130 2017-11-04 17:06:49 0|fobban|ok, let me monitor the temp. I don't think it has to do with that though cause the fans don't really spin up more than usual, but hang on, will probably time out soon :P
131 2017-11-04 17:09:12 0|fobban|is v0.15 much harder on the cpu than 0.14 was?
132 2017-11-04 17:13:48 0|sipa|yes, it needs to wait much less on memory
133 2017-11-04 17:16:13 0|fobban|I see now that I didn't get the crash when the blockchain was complete, I managed to download 91% before it crashed. But temp is steady between 23-30C on all cores.
134 2017-11-04 17:17:03 0|donaloconnor|could be PSU not providing enough power for CPU
135 2017-11-04 17:22:30 0|fobban|Hm, might be temp after all, started to spike to 75C now o_O
136 2017-11-04 17:24:24 0|donaloconnor|maybe, though 75 is not uncommon under high load
137 2017-11-04 17:47:13 0|Provoostenator|Gitian has been diligently working for the past few hours... Is there any way to spot check if the work in progress is correct?
138 2017-11-04 18:07:45 0|jouke|w/win 14
139 2017-11-04 18:08:50 0|Provoostenator|To answer my own q: once all linux versions finish building, it spits out a summary with hashes. You can compare that with e.g. gitian.sigs/0.15.1rc1-linux/laanwj/bitcoin-linux-0.15-build.assert
140 2017-11-04 18:09:29 0|Provoostenator|./bin/gsign:52:in `<main>': invalid option: --detach-sign (OptionParser::InvalidOption)
141 2017-11-04 18:09:29 0|Provoostenator|Hopefully this isn't a problem:
142 2017-11-04 19:11:40 0|meshcollider|Provoostenator: you can also look at the build logs as it's building, to see how it's going
143 2017-11-04 19:12:01 0|meshcollider|And check for errors
144 2017-11-04 19:22:39 0|Provoostenator|@meshcollider those are fun to watch. When I run ./bin/gverify, I assume it checks both the signatures of the other signers as well as that they have the same hashes in their assert files?
145 2017-11-04 19:30:45 0|meshcollider|Provoostenator: hmm I don't think it checks the hashes, just checks the signatures are valid
146 2017-11-04 19:31:53 0|Provoostenator|So how do I check that my hashes match what others found? I compared a few manually and they match.
