Notable changes
|

===============
|
||||
Notable changes since 0.10.3
|
||||
============================
|
||||
|
||||
Fix buffer overflow in bundled upnp
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
BIP65 soft fork to enforce OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY opcode
|
||||
--------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Bundled miniupnpc was updated to 1.9.20151008. This fixes a buffer overflow in
|
||||
the XML parser during initial network discovery.
|
||||
This release includes several changes related to the [BIP65][] soft fork
|
||||
which redefines the existing OP_NOP2 opcode as OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY
|
||||
(CLTV) so that a transaction output can be made unspendable until a
|
||||
specified point in the future.
|
||||
|
||||
Details can be found here: http://talosintel.com/reports/TALOS-2015-0035/
|
||||
1. This release will only relay and mine transactions spending a CLTV
|
||||
output if they comply with the BIP65 rules as provided in code.
|
||||
|
||||
This applies to the distributed executables only, not when building from source or
|
||||
using distribution provided packages.
|
||||
2. This release will produce version 4 blocks by default. Please see the
|
||||
*notice to miners* below.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, upnp has been disabled by default. This may result in a lower
|
||||
number of reachable nodes on IPv4, however this prevents future libupnpc
|
||||
vulnerabilities from being a structural risk to the network
|
||||
(see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6795).
|
||||
3. Once 951 out of a sequence of 1,001 blocks on the local node's best block
|
||||
chain contain version 4 (or higher) blocks, this release will no
|
||||
longer accept new version 3 blocks and it will only accept version 4
|
||||
blocks if they comply with the BIP65 rules for CLTV.
|
||||
|
||||
Test for LowS signatures before relaying
|
||||
-----------------------------------------
|
||||
For more information about the soft-forking change, please see
|
||||
<https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6351>
|
||||
|
||||
Make the node require the canonical 'low-s' encoding for ECDSA signatures when
|
||||
relaying or mining. This removes a nuisance malleability vector.
|
||||
Graphs showing the progress towards block version 4 adoption may be
|
||||
found at the URLs below:
|
||||
|
||||
Consensus behavior is unchanged.
|
||||
- Block versions over the last 50,000 blocks as progress towards BIP65
|
||||
consensus enforcement: <http://bitcoin.sipa.be/ver-50k.png>
|
||||
|
||||
If widely deployed this change would eliminate the last remaining known vector
|
||||
for nuisance malleability on SIGHASH_ALL P2PKH transactions. On the down-side
|
||||
it will block most transactions made by sufficiently out of date software.
|
||||
- Block versions over the last 2,000 blocks showing the days to the
|
||||
earliest possible BIP65 consensus-enforced block: <http://bitcoin.sipa.be/ver-2k.png>
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike the other avenues to change txids on transactions this
|
||||
one was randomly violated by all deployed bitcoin software prior to
|
||||
its discovery. So, while other malleability vectors where made
|
||||
non-standard as soon as they were discovered, this one has remained
|
||||
permitted. Even BIP62 did not propose applying this rule to
|
||||
old version transactions, but conforming implementations have become
|
||||
much more common since BIP62 was initially written.
|
||||
**Notice to miners:** Bitcoin Core’s block templates are now for
|
||||
version 4 blocks only, and any mining software relying on its
|
||||
getblocktemplate must be updated in parallel to use libblkmaker either
|
||||
version FIXME or any version from FIXME onward.
|
||||
|
||||
Bitcoin Core has produced compatible signatures since a28fb70e in
|
||||
September 2013, but this didn't make it into a release until 0.9
|
||||
in March 2014; Bitcoinj has done so for a similar span of time.
|
||||
Bitcoinjs and electrum have been more recently updated.
|
||||
- If you are solo mining, this will affect you the moment you upgrade
|
||||
Bitcoin Core, which must be done prior to BIP65 achieving its 951/1001
|
||||
status.
|
||||
|
||||
This does not replace the need for BIP62 or similar, as miners can
|
||||
still cooperate to break transactions. Nor does it replace the
|
||||
need for wallet software to handle malleability sanely[1]. This
|
||||
only eliminates the cheap and irritating DOS attack.
|
||||
- If you are mining with the stratum mining protocol: this does not
|
||||
affect you.

|
||||
- If you are mining with the getblocktemplate protocol to a pool: this
|
||||
will affect you at the pool operator’s discretion, which must be no
|
||||
later than BIP65 achieving its 951/1001 status.

Minimum relay fee default increase
|
||||
-----------------------------------
|
||||
[BIP65]: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0065.mediawiki
|
||||
|
||||
The default for the `-minrelaytxfee` setting has been increased from `0.00001`
|
||||
to `0.00005`.
|
||||
Windows bug fix for corrupted UTXO database on unclean shutdowns
|
||||
----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This is necessitated by the current transaction flooding, causing
|
||||
outrageous memory usage on nodes due to the mempool ballooning. This is a
|
||||
temporary measure, bridging the time until a dynamic method for determining
|
||||
this fee is merged (which will be in 0.12).
|
||||
Several Windows users reported that they often need to reindex the
|
||||
entire blockchain after an unclean shutdown of Bitcoin Core on Windows
|
||||
(or an unclean shutdown of Windows itself). Although unclean shutdowns
|
||||
remain unsafe, this release no longer relies on memory-mapped files for
|
||||
the UTXO database, which significantly reduced the frequency of unclean
|
||||
shutdowns leading to required reindexes during testing.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
release notes, in which this value was suggested)
