wallettool: Add dump and createfromdump commands #19137

    Adds two commands to the bitcoin-wallet tool: dump and createfromdump. These commands will be useful for a wallet storage migration in the future. It is also generally useful to have a storage agnostic dump like this. These commands are similar to BDB’s db_dump and db_load tools. This can also be useful for manual construction of a wallet file for tests.

    dump outputs every key-value pair from the wallet as comma separated hex. Each key-value pair is on its own line with the key and value in hex separated by a comma. This is output to the file specified by the new -dumpfile option.

    createfromdump takes a file produced by dump and creates a new wallet file with exactly the records specified in that file.

    A new option -dumpfile is added to the wallet tool. When used with dump, the records will be written to the specified file. When used with createfromdump, the file is read and the key-value pairs constructed from it. createfromdump requires -dumpfile.

    A simple round-trip test is added to the tool_wallet.py.

    This PR is based on #19334,

    In commit “wallettool: Add createfromdump command” (7ea3df8ccd13096088538fb4602208eae0831c13)

    Would suggest moving this to src/wallet/dump.cpp similar to src/wallet/salvage.cpp so the dump /load functionality be accessed other places outside the wallet tool, like by RPCs, the GUI, and c++ unit tests. Way arguments passed and errors are returned might have to change a little, though

    Concept ACK, but might be worth considering if we want add protections to this new dump/load functionality and text format. Maybe there should be a checksum at the end of the file to detect corruption. Maybe there should be a magic string or version number at the beginning in case we want to extend the format in the future and prevent current parsing function from trying to read it

    Is there any reason to support stdout?

    I’d find it easier to force this setting for both settings and it would simplify reasoning about arbitrary code execution. IIRC in bash simply catting a file can execute arbitrary commands.

    Maybe there should be a checksum at the end of the file to detect corruption.

    I’m not sure if that’s really useful or practical. We are writing to the wallet file as we read the records so a checksum wouldn’t be able to be computed until all records have been read and written to the file, at which point it’s too late for a checksum to be useful.

    Maybe there should be a magic string or version number at the beginning in case we want to extend the format in the future and prevent current parsing function from trying to read it

    I’ve added a line at the beginning to identify the file with the magic string BITCOIN_CORE_WALLET_DUMP and a version number.

    It would be nice to make the format a bit more human readable. For example each line could be followed by a comment line that contains a human readable version. For this PR, it should be enough to just skip lines starting with #. Or we can do that in a future version.

    When I use -dumpfile=~/temp/dump (instead of an absolute path) it doesn’t seem to produce any file, at least not where I can find it.

    tACK 29e3d73a899340b5ed0e8e06138faa11a40bc59a modulo issue below

    re: #19137 (comment)

    Maybe there should be a checksum at the end of the file to detect corruption.

    I’m not sure if that’s really useful or practical.

    The use case is when you make a backup of a wallet and copy it somewhere (usb drive, remote server) and the backup or copy operations fail midway without you noticing. With the current PR truncated wallet backups can load successfully and leave you with a wallet that is missing keys or transactions without any indication.

    With a checksum at the end of the file, this problem would not happen. It would be an error to try to restore from a corrupt or truncated dump. Also, a checksum at the end of the file should be easy to compute by just literally hashing the content of the file as it is written and adding the checksum (up to that point) on a final line.

    I wonder if we should include a warning either in the output or in the dumpfile itself that the file should not be shared. I’ll wait for a comment about this from achow101 before I merge.

    IMO the dumpfile tests should include something which signs with a key from the original wallet too, but that can be left for later.

    I suppose we should. I would prefer to just output it on stdout rather than put it in the file.

    Maybe followup if you prefer, but we could support stdin/stdout support in dump/createfromdump instead of just file. For instance for dump:

    I think it should be left for a followup but in that case I think it should be done in a way that you have to explicitly choose to pass to stdout. I think many users may accidentally type “dump” without realizing they need to configure -dumpfile, and have their whole wallet just dumped to their terminal.

    I wonder if the content should have the dump timestamp, at the end like timestamp,...?

    I don’t think that’s necessary. The file itself will have a creation timestamp and I think that’s good enough.

    If we do want this, we can add it later. Records can be added after the checksum and createfromdump will ignore them.

    Apparently this fails to dump/restore the wallet unique id.

    The wallet id is not something we are actually using and supporting. It is a byproduct of BDB. Instead of forcing this wallet logic and database type agnostic tool to have to understand BDB, we should make the wallet id actually supported with #20205. I’m not adding BDB id stuff to this PR, it’s out of scope and a layer violation.

    Looking at the CreateFromDump implementation it seems like the wallet will be created but empty if there is a checksum error or other import error. It would be good if there was a check at this point to verify if the created wallets are loadable if they are supposed to be loadable or not loadable if they are not supposed be loadable.

    Ideally, it would probably be preferable to delete the half created wallet than to just leave it behind.

    I think you could add if (!ret) wallet->Delete() after Wallet->Close() below with Delete method implementations that just delete the main datafile after the database is closed.

    1. Because ret overshadows another variable in the parent scope the function will return true and the error won’t be shown to the user.

    2. even if we return false and show an error the dumpfile is still not complete, which could lead to broken backups if user misses an error. I suggest we remove the file if something goes wrong. So if the dumpfile exists it’s always a complete dump.

    In commit “wallettool: Add createfromdump command” (fd1f2380cf736df25a27c2607f745ae248c73933)

    This seems all right for now, but we should think about how to improve usability in the future because this is inconsistent with other ways wallets are created. Other ways to create wallets either default to BDB format or choose format based on a descriptors/no descriptors option, not a BDB/SQLite format option. Also, dumping and recreating a wallet in the original format may be a challenge here, since both wallet formats look like directories with wallet.dat files, and you can’t tell them apart without opening them or looking for external clues. This -format option could also lead to creation of less well tested BDB+descriptor or SQLite+no-descriptor wallet types.

    I think:

    • Ideally best format would be detected automatically and there should be no need to have a -format option.
    • If -format option is kept it should give either a warning or an error if an unusual BDB+descriptor or SQLite+no-descriptor wallet is created.
    • If -format option is kept, wallet wallet-tool create command should either respect it or explicitly disallow it, not ignore it. More ideally a -descriptors/-nodescriptors option would be used to choose the format, so wallet-tool create command would be consistent with other ways wallets are created

    luke-jr commented at 4:47 pm on November 18, 2020:
    Maybe it should be included in the dump? (Can allow overriding still if user desires to do so)

    Like that idea


    achow101 commented at 6:04 pm on November 19, 2020:

    Given that this tool is supposed to operate at the database level, I don’t think it makes sense to have a -descriptors/-nodescriptors option for it. Additionally, because this tool doesn’t have application level logic, I don’t think it should be able to do any introspection of the wallet it creates in order to warn about unusual format and wallet type combinations.

    I would prefer that we keep -format but make it directly an option of createfromdump. It would be better if our args system had something like Python Argparse’s subcommands. But I don’t think that is currently possible to do with our args system.


    achow101 commented at 8:11 pm on November 19, 2020:
    I’ve limited -format to only createfromdump. I’ve also added a format line to the dump which is used to determine the database format if -format isn’t provided. This required shuffling around some of the code in createfromdump. Tests have also been updated and partially refactored to make them a bit more readable.

    In commit “wallettool: Add createfromdump command” (fd1f2380cf736df25a27c2607f745ae248c73933)

    • I think code probably should call wallet.reset() before this point. wallet->Close is called above, but it seems like Close for BDB only flushes the database, so the environment might not get freed until after fs::remove_all, and lead to later attempted writes.
    • Alternately this could use a different approach and call a WalletDatabase::Remove method that just removes the known wallet files and empty directory (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19137#discussion_r509803825) instead of calling fs::remove_all. Even though remove_all should be safe because of the options.require_create = true line above, a selective remove would seem more safe than a recursive one

Main changes since last review are nice format autodetection suggested by Luke, and extra error checking to disallow inapplicable options. I also like Luke’s suggestions to send warnings to stderr and use stdin/stdout for data, and would still feel better to see recursive fs::remove_all replaced with a more selective delete. Also I don’t think createfromdump and create need to be different commands. It seems like it would simplify usage and unify code if create command was extended to accept the -dumpfile option and createfromdump command was dropped.

    But these are all minor issues that could be addressed in followups. Bigger issues have all been discussed and addressed and this PR seems very good in its current form.

    NACK until this can handle dumping/restoring the wallet id. (Or alternatively simply refuse to dump/restore BDB wallets until this is fixed)

    What are the negative consequences of merging the PR without this feature? The only place wallet ids are used is to forbid opening an older type of wallet that we don’t create anymore to avoid runtime data corruption (#11429). This isn’t relevant to dump/createfromdump because createfromdump doesn’t create the type of wallet that would have this corruption (a BDB wallet sharing an BDB environment with another wallet that has the same fileid), and even if it did you’d think choosing a new id would actually be more helpful than choosing a duplicate id.

    I know there are future PRs and maybe forks that envision using unique ids for new purposes, but if this PR causes a problem for them, I think a substantive NACK would explain specifically how the problem arises and what the consequences are.

    What are the negative consequences of merging the PR without this feature?

    A user might think they’ve created an identical clone of a wallet that is in fact different.

    As I explained, we don’t have any code that treats these wallets as different. So the NACK above is based on other code which isn’t part of the software and hasn’t been described in any detail, which makes it not seem very substantive. If there is a legitimate objection, it should be possible to describe a scenario where createfromdump interacts badly with prunelocks or another feature in some other code where not merging this PR somehow makes things better.

    (For prunelocks, it would seem like the safest thing would be to treat different wallet files as different and not automatically delete locks, but you would be the expert there so please fill me in!)

    It is already possible with RPCs to create an “identical clone of a wallet that is in fact different”, so I think the NACK describes something unrelated to this pull and should thus be filed as an issue.

    Even if the NACK applied to this pull, instead of wholesale rejecting it, a simple documentation fixup can be applied to document the shortcomings and dangers, if there are any.

    More appropriate use of stdout and stderr would be nice, but can wait for a followup.

    Sorry, this has been removed based on my feedback, because I missed that all strings written are hex-encoded (or ascii). See #19137 (review)

    In my experience treating wallets created from a dump as unique is a feature, not a bug. By definition the dump no longer gets updated, while the original does. And when you load from a dump, any rescan has to start where the dump left off, rather than whenever you closed the original wallet. In fact I like to keep both Sqlite and BDB versions around, and open, while testing these features (though that’s not a common use case).

    A followup could add an option to reuse the same wallet id.

    In commit “wallettool: Add dump command” (e1e7a90d5f0616a46ffadd62a9f1c65406cca6b4)

    For a followup, it would be good to print an error in the if (gArgs.IsArgSet("-descriptors") && command != "create") case so there is an explicit error if someone tries to pass -descriptors/-nodescriptors to createfromdump. (Suggested originally in S3RK’s PR #20365 (review))
