    While reviewing #27596 (ran loadtxoutset in mainnet before m_assumeutxo_data is empty as currently in master - back to 1b1d711), got a core dumped, so it seems there’s a potential issue if new releases ever remove snapshot details or a semi-experienced user performs a loadtxoutset on a different “customised” binary version (not sure if this is a real use case).

    1. Perform a loadtxoutset in mainnet on compiled bitcoind adding the block hash from Sjors’s commit.
    2. Once step 1 finishes, remove the added code from step 1 and compile again or just compile master without any changes on top.
    3. Run bitcoind, soon it’ll crash with:

    Concept ACK

    I think in practice the most likely scenario for triggering this condition is that a user first successfully loads an UTXO snapshot with AssumeUTXO hash H in release version Y, and at some later point runs an earlier release version X on that same datadir (i.e. X < Y and Y includes H in the AssumeUTXO parameters, but X doesn’t yet). This will probably not happen too often, but nevertheless the crash should be fixed.

    std::optional<AssumeutxoData> maybe_au_data

    The code below relies on the fact that this an std::optional, so it seems safer to not use auto, in light of future refactors.

    Would be good to drop the state_dummy variable and _(au_data_error.c_str()) translation which doesn’t really make sense, and just call m_opts.notifications->fatalError() instead of FatalError

    Nice catch. It would be good to have a python test for this. A test can trigger the crash / error by just creating a chainstate_snapshot/base_blockhash file in the datadir with a random block hash.

    From the command line this is also easy to test by running:

    0mkdir ~/.bitcoin/regtest/chainstate_snapshot
    1dd bs=32 count=1 if=/dev/urandom of=~/.bitcoin/regtest/chainstate_snapshot/base_blockhash

    In commit “test: add coverage for snapshot chainstate not matching AssumeUTXO parameters” (3d7c103930f5625e83fbbf7e4311f7389e399003)

    Can just say bytes(range(32)) without the list constructor

    Also technically no need to reverse the hash with [::-1] below, but maybe that’s kept intentionally to follow a convention


    maflcko commented at 1:13 pm on October 25, 2023:
    I think if you re-touch, this symbol name can be removed completely and you can just use f.write(b'z' * 32) # invalid hash (or similar) to achieve the same without bytes, list, range, and reverse.

    ACK 811067ca1cbbd4a697791cbe3ecd4bee19fe6193

    nit, if you have to retouch: probably it would be good to also check for the specific error message ("Assumeutxo data not found for the given blockhash...") via assert_debug_log, rather than only the generic “fatal internal error” one which goes to stderr.

    Code review ACK 811067ca1cbbd4a697791cbe3ecd4bee19fe6193.

    Just suggested test simplifications since last review. I also agree the suggestion to check specifically for the right error message would be nice.
