    Motivation

    • I think it’s preferable to use stdlib data structures instead of depending on boost if we can achieve the same thing.
    • Also see #28335 for further context/motivation. This PR simplifies that one.

    Things done in this PR:

    • Add a bench for DisconnectedBlockTransactions where we reorg and the new chain has {100%, 90%, 10%} of the same transactions. AFAIU in practice, it’s usually close to 100%.
    • Rewrite DisconnectedBlockTransactions as a std::list + unordered_map instead of a boost multi index container.
      • On my machine, the bench suggests the performance is very similar.
    • Move DisconnectedBlockTransactions from txmempool.h to its own kernel/disconnected_transactions.h. This struct isn’t used by txmempool and doesn’t have much to do with txmempool. My guess is that it’s been living there for convenience since the boost includes are there.

    • Dropped last 2 commits since they’re now in #28391
    • Switched to the list + map implementation. I thought about it more over the weekend and it feels more similar to the current impl + would be more performant in the average case.
    • Addressed #28385 (review)
    • Improved the bench a little, reduced some duplicate code

    remove_if doesn’t change the size of the container, so your patch is incomplete, no?

    stickies-v commented at 10:42 am on September 5, 2023:
    queuedTx is not a vector but a list, so I think just removing it from the list is sufficient?

    maflcko commented at 10:49 am on September 5, 2023:

    Why would the container make a difference? If I print std::list::size(), it remains unchanged.

    stickies-v commented at 11:12 am on September 5, 2023:

    Yeah, I didn’t realize they behaved differently but with std::list::remove_if the items are indeed removed from the container, as opposed to just shifted:

    Perhaps worth adding an assert(!disconnectpool->queuedTx.empty()) here? I know we already assume that’s the case because disconnectpool is non-nullptr and because of the dynamic memory usage check, but i think adding an assertion may make this more robust, since for an empty vector we have UB here and two lines down.

    In 5a1233c0:

    Small idea: what about having an always increasing lock_time number?. It will ensure different tx ids and let you remove the unique_set_num as well as the fast RNG for the prevout hash which doesn’t seems to be used anywhere.

    E.g.

     0static BlockTxns CreateRandomTransactions(size_t num_txns)
     1{
     2    static uint32_t next_locktime{0};
     3

     5    txns.reserve(num_txns);
     6    // Simplest spk for every tx
     7    CScript spk = CScript() << OP_TRUE;

    11        tx.vout.resize(1);
    12        tx.vout.emplace_back(CTxOut{CENT, spk});
    13        tx.nLockTime = next_locktime++;

    glozow commented at 3:02 pm on September 5, 2023:
    Good point about using a static var. I’ve simplified this but instead of using locktime or prevout n, I’m just having each tx spend the previous one. Should be sufficient to ensure we don’t get any duplicates, so that gets rid of unique_set_num and the rng.

    Hmm, why no addTransactions(const std::vector<CTransactionRef>& vtx) to match removeForBlock() ?

    Is it because the tx order needs to be reversed?

    That would allow a iters_by_txid.reserve(vtx.size()); which gets me a ~10% speedup in the benches.

    Edit: removed snark after finding the comment I needed.

    Edit2: I suppose this is a potential optimization unrelated to this PR, but an addTransactionsForBlock(const CBlock&) would be unambiguous as to tx order if this is interesting.

    This is worth it though, so I’ve done this now - thanks!

    Concept ACK, though I’m concerned about the public queuedTx staying in sync with the private iters_by_txid.

    For example: here queuedTx is cleared without clearing iters_by_txid. That looks like a bug to me?

    After looking at that some more, I realized that the memory management was also not encapsulated. I took a quick run at a completely encapsulated DisconnectedBlockTransactions on that branch. One nice advantage there is that the max memory size is no longer hard-coded, so it should be possible to test/bench/fuzz much more effectively. (I switched to using CBlock for tx batches which was probably a mistake though, so just ignore that :). @glozow I know you wanted to keep the size of this diff down, so I suspect you won’t want to take a cleaned up version of that here. But IMO we should do something like it soon after this.

    I think we still want to disconnectpool.clear() here just in case. Otherwise it’s potentially a change of behavior as we’re keeping these tx’s alive longer (until disconnectpool goes out of scope) than before.

    Looks good to me. My benchmarks show we’re a little slower in the 10% case, and a little faster in the others.

    My only hesitation is that as @stickies-v points out, this is likely to change mempool behavior somewhat because of the space difference. It seems like it could only be better, but the memusage trigger behavior has not tested as far as I can see. It’d be nice to have (read: bonus) some dead-simple tests for DisconnectedBlockTransactions::DynamicMemoryUsage()against hard-coded sizes before/after the boost swap, just as a sanity check that we’re calculating what we think we are.

    stickies-v commented at 11:19 am on September 7, 2023:

    “Blocks are disconnected in descending order by block height.” I think this should be in the function docstring as it’s not an implementation detail but an important part of its interface? We expect the caller to:

    • call this function for the outermost/highest block first
    • keep vtx in the same order as they appear in the block (the reversion is an implementation detail and not relevant for this function’s docstring imo, although we do want to document take’s behaviour as per my other comment)
    • ensure all tx ids provided are unique, even across multiple calls

    (ideally using structured “pre” doxygen tags?)

    glozow commented at 11:35 am on September 7, 2023:

    Note: DynamicMemoryUsage in the boost implementation was returning a fixed estimate (+80B) for usage per entry, so the “before” size here would be 720 for 1 tx, 72000 for 100 (I’m not sure how accurate this is but those are the numbers).

    This means the number has increased so we’d drop more stuff now than before (in the rare case of a multi-block reorg).

    stickies-v commented at 1:15 pm on September 7, 2023:

    Maybe I’m misunderstanding things, but I find this language quite unintuitive and if my understanding is correct - misleading. Assume we have a chaintip at height 100, and we reorged the last 2 blocks, i.e. 100 and 99 (in that order) are disconnected.

    • “from oldest to newest”: I would call a tx in block 99 older than a tx in block 100, but disconnectpool.take() returns txs from block 100 before block 99
    • “the latest mined block that was disconnected” could mean (and this was my first intuition) “the latest block that was disconnected”, i.e. block 99, or “the highest of the block(s) that were disconnected”, i.e. the previous chaintip, which I think is what is meant here.

    Suggested rephrasing, which (imo) removes that ambiguity and also highlights the intent a bit more:

    0    // disconnectpool.take() returns entries first sorted by descending blockheight (i.e. txs from
    1    // the previous chaintip appear first) and then by reversed in-block order.
    2    // For example, if blocks 100 and 99 are disconnected, disconnectpool.take() returns 
    3    // [100:n, 100:n-1, ..., 100:0, 99:m, 99:m-1, ..., 99:0]
    4    // Iterate disconnectpool.take(( in reverse, so that we ensure first adding parent transactions
    5    // before children are added (if any).
    

    Actually, I think moving the first lines that describe the .take() return value to the DisconnectedBlockTransactions::take docstring makes probably more sense, and then just reference that here?

    darosior commented at 2:21 pm on September 9, 2023:

    Here list_iter can never be deduced as a reference to iter->second which would then be erased right?

    An alternative to avoid having to ask this question could be to simply erase from iters_by_txid last:

    0cachedInnerUsage -= RecursiveDynamicUsage(*iter->second);
    1queuedTx.erase(iter->second);
    2iters_by_txid.erase(iter);

    Doesn’t this invalidate iter, as it would point to something that’s since been erased from queuedTx?

    Currently, by inheriting from X, we’re accounting for the size of X (as this will be included in sizeof(list_node<X>). I think that makes sense - X is owned by the list.

    I’m not familiar with std::list implementations, but I’m not sure if accounting for both X as well as void* ptr_val makes sense. I think the node owning X is plenty, I don’t see the need for an additional pointer?

    Finally, by inheriting from private X we cannot use this on non-class/struct types, e.g. it wouldn’t work for std::list<int>. A suggestion to address both problems (and it seems the same approach was taken for e.g. stl_tree_node:

    0struct list_node
    1{
    2private:
    3    void* ptr_next;
    4    void* ptr_prev;
    5    X val;
    

    theuni commented at 5:27 pm on September 12, 2023:

    I was looking into this yesterday and arrived at both of the same conclusions.

    Poked at libstdc++’s impl with gdb:

    (gdb) print -pretty off -raw-values -- queuedTx ... _M_node = {<std::__detail::_List_node_base> = {_M_next = 0x55555556aeb0, _M_prev = 0x55555556aed0}, _M_size = 2}}} ...

    Which agrees with (on 64bit):

    0(gdb) print sizeof(queuedTx)
    1$7 = 24
    

    So it appears to me that in general a list will be: A structure with pointer to its head and tail nodes, plus an additional int for size. Plus for each node: a pointer to prev, next, and the data itself.

    I’m still working on confirming those numbers fully with an implementation though.

    I agree, changed (but in the rewrite commit instead of here)

    stickies-v commented at 3:15 pm on October 17, 2023:

    Revisiting this again, I think my suggestion was wrong and we’re now underestimating memory usage.

    In DisconnectedBlockTransactions::DynamicMemoryUsage, with memusage::DynamicUsage(queuedTx) we account only for the dynamic allocation of queuedTx, which is (2 ptrs + sizeof(CTransactionRef)) * size. This corresponds to 2+2 pointers per item, and does not include the managed CTransaction object or the control block.

    In AddTransactionsFromBlock (and other places where we modify cachedInnerUsage), when we calculate RecursiveDynamicUsage(**block_it) (i.e. on a CTransaction) as I suggested here, we only account for the vins and vouts of the transaction, and not for the CTransaction object nor the control block.

    So effectively, we do need to account for the CTransactionRef in both places, because in DynamicMemoryUsage we account for the 2 pointers, and in AddTransactionRef we account for the managed object and the control block. In the current implementation, we are not accounting for the CTransaction or the control block, even though everything is allocated on the heap.


    To illustrate, for a coinbase transaction, the difference in AddTransactionsFromBlock is:

    0(lldb) p (size_t) RecursiveDynamicUsage(*block_it)
    1(size_t) 640
    2(lldb) p (size_t) RecursiveDynamicUsage(**block_it)
    3(size_t) 448
    

    cc @ismaelsadeeq perhaps something to include in #28530?

    ismaelsadeeq commented at 12:12 pm on October 18, 2023:

    Thanks @stickies-v happy to add it to #28530, I f I understand you correctly, you mean that we are not accounting for the shared_ptr and the CTransaction object before only the vins and vouts.

    In DisconnectedBlockTransactions::DynamicMemoryUsage, with memusage::DynamicUsage(queuedTx) we account only for the dynamic allocation of queuedTx, which is (2 ptrs + sizeof(CTransactionRef)) * size. This corresponds to 2+2 pointers per item.

    I think this is correct. We only account for the vins and vouts, hence the CTransaction Object itself and the shared_ptr that makes up CTransactionRef are not accounted.

    With https://github.com/stickies-v/bitcoin/commit/87f3f28b3acfc329eaed0b0cce6ff589271bfefd we are now accounting for the shared_ptr CTransaction Object, its inputs and outputs and the dynamic allocation of queuedTx in DynamicMemoryUsage.

    because we pass shared_ptr which executes the below version of RecursiveDynamicUsage

    0template<typename X>
    1static inline size_t RecursiveDynamicUsage(const std::shared_ptr<X>& p) {
    2    return p ? memusage::DynamicUsage(p) + RecursiveDynamicUsage(*p) : 0;
    3}
    

    memusage::DynamicUsage(p) accounts for the size of p which is CTransaction and then accounts for the shared pointer size.

    It is unclear to me what

    does not include the managed CTransaction object or the control block.

    mean

    Do you mean the shared_ptr and CTransaction Object ?


    stickies-v commented at 12:31 pm on October 18, 2023:

    Do you mean the shared_ptr and CTransaction Object ?

    No. When instantiating a shared_ptr<CTransaction>, typically we would allocate:

    1. 2 raw pointers on the stack
    2. an instance of CTransaction and a control block on the heap

    This is why memusage::DynamicUsage(const std::shared_ptr<X>& p) does not include 2 raw pointers in its calculation. However, since in our case the shared_ptrs are managed by a vector, the 2 raw pointers (from 1.) are also allocated on the heap, and we account for this in DisconnectedBlockTransactions::DynamicMemoryUsage when calling memusage::DynamicUsage(queuedTx).


    ismaelsadeeq commented at 1:30 pm on October 18, 2023:

    Thanks for the explanation.

    So In memusage::DynamicUsage(const std::shared_ptr<X>& p),

    • memusage::DynamicUsage(p) accounts for the CTransaction Class and the control block.
    • RecursiveDynamicUsage(*p) accounts for the vins and vouts,
    • whereas the two raw pointers are being accounted in cachedInnerUsage.

    Will add https://github.com/stickies-v/bitcoin/commit/87f3f28b3acfc329eaed0b0cce6ff589271bfefd in next push


    stickies-v commented at 1:38 pm on October 18, 2023:

    RecursiveDynamicUsage(*p) accounts for the vins and vouts,

    We don’t want to call RecursiveDynamicUsage(*p) anymore, only RecursiveDynamicUsage(p) as per my suggested fix

    whereas the two raw pointers are being accounted in cachedInnerUsage.

    Not quite: the raw pointers are accounted for in DisconnectedBlockTransactions::DynamicMemoryUsage when calling memusage::DynamicUsage(queuedTx).


    ismaelsadeeq commented at 1:42 pm on October 18, 2023:

    Yeah But calling RecursiveDynamicUsage(p) means calling

    0template<typename X>
    1static inline size_t RecursiveDynamicUsage(const std::shared_ptr<X>& p) {
    2    return p ? memusage::DynamicUsage(p) + RecursiveDynamicUsage(*p) : 0;
    3}
    

    which brings to my point that

    • memusage::DynamicUsage(p) accounts for the CTransaction Class and the control block.
    • RecursiveDynamicUsage(*p) accounts for the vins and vouts,

    Not quite: the raw pointers are accounted for in DisconnectedBlockTransactions::DynamicMemoryUsage when calling memusage::DynamicUsage(queuedTx).

    stickies-v commented at 1:18 pm on September 13, 2023:

    What do you mean with the other way around?

    Still nit, but, I think the first part of the new description (i.e. “Add transactions from DisconnectedBlockTransactions, remove all but one (the disconnected block’s coinbase transaction) of them, and then pop from the front until empty.”) is too much of an implementation detail for this docstring. And the other 2 benches would probably benefit from a consistent docstring. So new suggestion:

    “Test DisconnectedBlockTransactions in a reorg in which {*all*, *90%*, *10%*} of the non-coinbase transactions in the disconnected chain also exist in the new chain.”


    glozow commented at 2:25 pm on September 13, 2023:

    What do you mean with the other way around?

    It’s not that all of the transactions in the newly connected block existed in the disconnected block; it’s that all of the transactions in the disconnected block are in the new connected chain. I assumed the suggestion was to add a “real world scenario” explanation for what’s being tested?

    Ah yes, subset and superset and all that. I see what you mean now, your phrasing is better indeed, mine assumes both blocks to be the same size (which they are, but still).

    I assumed the suggestion was to add a “real world scenario” explanation for what’s being tested?

    Yes, the “popping from the front” etc seems not useful to me here, describing what we’re testing much more so.

    It’s not immediately obvious to me why this is expected behaviour, when we instantiated disconnectpool to the memory usage of a map of 2 + overhead. At the moment, I think this is the case because (as per my previous comment) the MAP_x vars don’t include the map nodes, but that seems unintuitive/unexpected?

    Finished review at 9dcef47e4d52b15ffe88be7ddf5ea626121e5f0d.

    I’ll review the unit test again after the other underlying comments are addressed because I think it needs some changing, but other than that and outstanding comments I think I won’t have too many more comments coming up.

    Addressed comments and

    • Dropped the unit test commit as I can see how the estimations are too rough / unclear. Maybe we can follow up with more precise assertions on the expected size in a separate PR.
    • Changed the AddAndRemoveDisconnectedBlockTransactionsAll to have all but 1 (the coinbases) to be more realistic. This didn’t change the bench results for me - still slightly faster on *90 and *All, slightly slower on *10.
  94. rewrite DisconnectedBlockTransactions as a list + map
    And encapsulate underlying data structures to avoid misuse.
    It's better to use stdlib instead of boost when we can achieve the same thing.
    
    Behavior change: the number returned by DynamicMemoryUsage for the same
    transactions is higher (due to change in usage or more accurate
    accounting), which effectively decreases the maximum amount of
    transactions kept for resubmission in a reorg.

    ACK 4313c77400eb8eaa8586db39a7e29a861772ea80

    Very nice removal of boost dependency while improving the interface through encapsulation.

    My final (re-)consideration is that there’s a lot of new implementation code in header files (mostly kernel/disconnected_transactions.h and txmempool.h), which I think could be improved but also is not a blocker?

    (and also to be supernitty: a fair amount of new code not using list initialization, I’ve made the diff of things I could see here but not worth going through rebase adventures either, so feel very free to skip/pick from this)

    1assert(emplace_result.second);
    

    or remove the restriction:
