* aura: emit ancestry actions for finalizing blocks
* aura: refactor is_epoch_end to get finalized blocks as argument
* ethcore: add is_epoch_end_light method to Engine
The full client now tracks finality by querying the engine on each block import,
and it also persists the finalization state to the DB. For the light client
current it doesn't persist finality information and only keeps track of finality
for epoch signals, by calling `is_epoch_end_light`. This method implements the
previously existing logic of building finality for all the blocks in the current
epoch and then checking the finalized blocks against the transition store.
* ethcore: allow finalizing current block
* aura: fix construction of finality proof
* aura: fix warnings
- missing docs for is_epoch_end_light
- unused method unfinalized_hashes in RollingFinality
* aura: fix clone on copy types
* Update `add_license` script
* run script
* add `remove duplicate lines script` and run it
* Revert changes `English spaces`
* strip whitespaces
* Revert `GPL` in files with `apache/mit license`
* don't append `gpl license` in files with other lic
* Don't append `gpl header` in files with other lic.
* re-ran script
* include c and cpp files too
* remove duplicate header
* rebase nit
* aura: broadcast empty step message instead of sealing empty block
* aura: add empty_step messages to seal
* aura: include parent_hash in empty step message
* aura: verify received empty step messages
* aura: verify empty step messages in block
* aura: fix dead lock on empty_steps
* aura: fix EmptyStep Encodable
* aura: take number of empty steps into account in chain score
* aura: use empty step signers for finality
* aura: add empty "empty step" messages to seal when reading from spec
* aura: fix EmptyStep rlp encoding
* aura: use Vec<u8> instead of Bytes
* aura: fix block empty step verification
* Update .gitlab-ci.yml
fix lint
* aura: fix accumulation of empty step signatures for finality
* aura: include empty steps in seal signature
* aura: configurable max number of empty steps
* engine: pass block header to seal_fields method
This is necessary to make the number of seal fields dynamic,
e.g. activating a transition on a certain block number that changes
the seal.
* aura: add transition to enable empty step messages
* aura: clear old empty step messages on verify_block_external
* aura: ignore empty step messages from the future
* aura: report skipped primaries when empty steps are not enabled
* aura: fix tests
* aura: report misbehavior
* aura: add tests for rolling finality with multiple signatures
* engine: fix validator set test
In this test the block validation wasn't failing because the block was in the
future (expected failure) but was instead failing because the author of the
block isn't the expected authority. Since we added reporting of blocks produced
by the wrong authority this test started failing.
* aura: reward all the authors of empty step messages
* aura: fix reward attribution for new blocks
* aura: add tests for empty steps broadcasting and inclusion in blocks
* aura: reduce size of empty step messages in seal
* aura: add test for empty step inclusion in blocks
* aura: add test for rewarding of empty steps
* aura: add test for empty steps validation
* aura: fix rlp encoding of sealed empty step
* aura: fix grumbles
* generate proofs on newly-created state
* report only missed steps after first block
* dont report skipped if not signer
* test
* finality tracing and passing valid header to `commit_block`
* avoid proposing multiple times on the same step when validator set changes
* limit benign reports
* Ordering -> AtomicOrdering
* reinstate warning now that spam is reduced
* flush pending transition changes when necessary
* ensure epochs aren't re-zoomed on every block
* final engine changes
* migration to v13
* adding and removing pending transitions
* epoch_transition_for
* port snapshot to new engine methods
* final validator set interface
* fix compiler errors
* revert v13/epoch_depth transition
* make call on new epoch
* rolling finality checker
* tests for finality checker
* constructing finality proof upon pending transition
* fix warnings and finality proof checking
* fix compiler warnings in tests
* test fixes
* don't include genesis in finality checking
* change snapshot test chain building logic
* minor refactorings
* fetch epoch transition based on parent, fix divide-by-zero in SimpleList
* fix formatting
* fix ABIs and finality checking in snapshot restoration
* encode signal number in proof
* create more blocks at the end of tests
* update gist to accurate contract code
* test for epoch_transition_for
* fix tests with immediateTransitions parameter
* disable force flag after forcing
* rename ValidatorsChanged to InitiateChange and finalizeSignal to finalizeChange
* a few more validator set tests
