    General

    This PR softforks 3 lock-time related BIPs which are all implemented in master as mempool-only logic at the moment.

    1. BIP68 sequence locks for relative locktime;
    2. BIP112 CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY;
    3. BIP113 Median Time Past.

    Dependencies

    • BIP68 (sequence locks) independently enforces the same semantics BIP113 (MTP)
    • BIP112 (CSV) relies on BIP68

    Relay policy for BIP113

    BIP113 mempool-only policy was deployed with Bitcoin Core 0.11.2 at the same time as the BIP65 CLTV softfork so the policy is in wide use (at least 70% of nodes) as well as all the miners who upgraded to 0.11.2.

    Relay policy for v2 transactions

    BIP68/112 rely on v2 transactions. Currently only v1 transactions are relayed, so it is necessary to change the relay policy to allow v2. This will be done at the same time as softfork deployment and will have the net effect that once the softfork enforces, we can be pretty sure miners will mine v2 transactions.

    At a later date once enough nodes upgrade and we’re sure v2 transaction will be relayed efficiently, we can bump the default transaction version in core see #7562.

  15. Add RPC test for BIP 68/112/113 soft fork.
    This RPC test will test both the activation mechanism of the first versionbits soft fork as well as testing many code branches of the consensus logic for BIP's 68, 112, and 113.

    Can you add my commit, https://github.com/btcdrak/bitcoin/pull/8 the current test does not cover exactly the activation part, I’m not comfortable with it.

    My test can be used for testing segwit activation later also in few lines.

    nit: The new RPC test is very noisy. Printing lines for passing tests is not necessary, at least by default, could be behind some verbose flag:

    0Test 1: PASS [143]
    1Test 2: PASS [287]
    2...
    3Test 124: PASS [582]
    4Test 125: PASS [582]
    
  26. morcos commented at 5:19 pm on March 23, 2016: member

    @laanwj yeah, I noticed that too. Unfortunately, that’s the underlying behavior of the ComparisonTestFramework that the RPC test is built off of. I agree it would be nice to make optional.

    EDIT: I suppose it would be easy to just always surpress the PASS output, and still output on failures.

  27. btcdrak commented at 5:27 pm on March 23, 2016: contributor
    @laanwj I also agree, but it’s orthogonal to this PR imo. If you don’t mind, I’d like to push back on quieting tests for this PR. Ideally it would be much better to print a dot per test on the same line and only emit error messages if necessary. But that would require a change to the ComparisonTestFramework.

    Not added in PR though. That was #7575. I think the name is sufficient though, to indicate it’s not a real softfork, but for testing purposes.

    I saw there was some discussion of this already (https://github.com/btcdrak/bitcoin/pull/8), but I don’t really see the point of the bip9-softforks.py test – it seems like a subset of the testing done in bip68-112-113-p2p.py. I don’t feel strongly if you want to include it here, in case it helps anyone’s review, but I thought I’d mention that this seems like a candidate for removal from the repo in the future.

    Also perhaps we should remove the code in bip68-sequence.py which tests that BIP68 is not consensus (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/5131005e5b26d12b5b3f79c1c3f8ee08172fc386/qa/rpc-tests/bip68-sequence.py#L337)? That test will continue to pass for the time being, because not enough blocks are generated to trigger the soft fork, but it’s somewhat confusing to keep that test in the repo, and at any rate the RPC test bip68-112-113-p2p.py is comprehensively testing that BIP68 activates in the right way.

    @sdaftuar as explained in btcdrak#8 the test has a different purpose than bip68-112-113-p2p.py.

    All bip are generally tested in their own PR, bip68-112-113-p2p.py is doing test that are already done but also testing the sf activation logic. This expand way more than the subject of this PR.

    softforks.py has a different purpose, it is here to test ONLY the sf activation logic. This basically mean that in future softfork, you can test the activation correctly by adding a single line at https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7648/files#diff-98a8abf7f80dbe5eda93bbbbb4348e80R190 .

    For example, testing any new segwit sf activation will only be a matter of adding a function which change the scriptPubKey to be push.

    The test is meant to make testing sf soft fork logic activation of future sf a breeze.

  44. btcdrak commented at 5:20 pm on March 29, 2016: contributor
    bip68-sequence.py is a valid part of the mempool-only test suite and should remain in the same way we have bip65 mempool tests. In any case, it’s out of scope for this PR.

    I left some comment nits in the RPC test, bip68-112-113-p2p.py, which I reviewed in depth in addition to the rest of the code. That test is pretty comprehensive, and I think that test coverage had been missing before, so thanks for including that in this pull.

    I also manually tested the case that is mentioned as being missing from bip68-112-113-p2p.py, for an OP_CSV with an empty stack.

    ACK 71527a0f31ae67edad0a7fcda59c75a6ce5666ca @btcdrak To be clear, I’m not talking about removing the entire bip68-sequence.py test, just comment out the specific test within that one which is checking that BIP68 is not enforced as a consensus rule. That test made sense when we were deploying BIP68 as mempool-only, but doesn’t make sense when we’re proposing it as a soft fork. See the line of code I linked to above.

    it’s out of scope for this PR.

    Issues with the tests, unless they pinpoint issues in the code, or break Travis, should not hold up this pull. They can be fixed later.

    @petertodd You said in #7184 (comment) that you wanted some nits addressed before this (the BIP68 part) would be acceptable as a softfork to you. Could you take a look whether this is the case now?
