An extensible and performant implementation of Ethereum Transaction Pool. //! The pool stores ordered, verified transactions according to some pluggable //! `Scoring` implementation. //! The pool also allows you to construct a set of `pending` transactions according //! to some notion of `Readiness` (pluggable). //! //! The pool is generic over transactions and should make no assumptions about them. //! The only thing we can rely on is the `Scoring` that defines: //! - the ordering of transactions from a single sender //! - the priority of the transaction compared to other transactions from different senders //! //! NOTE: the transactions from a single sender are not ordered by priority, //! but still when constructing pending set we always need to maintain the ordering //! (i.e. `txs[1]` always needs to be included after `txs[0]` even if it has higher priority) //! //! ### Design Details //! //! Performance assumptions: //! - Possibility to handle tens of thousands of transactions //! - Fast insertions and replacements `O(per-sender + log(senders))` //! - Reasonably fast removal of stalled transactions `O(per-sender)` //! - Reasonably fast construction of pending set `O(txs * (log(senders) + log(per-sender))` //! //! The removal performance could be improved by trading some memory. Currently `SmallVec` is used //! to store senders transactions, instead we could use `VecDeque` and efficiently `pop_front` //! the best transactions. //! //! The pending set construction and insertion complexity could be reduced by introducing //! a notion of `nonce` - an absolute, numeric ordering of transactions. //! We don't do that because of possible implications of EIP208 where nonce might not be //! explicitly available. //! //! 1. The pool groups transactions from particular sender together //! and stores them ordered by `Scoring` within that group //! i.e. `HashMap>`. //! 2. Additionaly we maintain the best and the worst transaction from each sender //! (by `Scoring` not `priority`) ordered by `priority`. //! It means that we can easily identify the best transaction inside the entire pool //! and the worst transaction. //! 3. Whenever new transaction is inserted to the queue: //! - first check all the limits (overall, memory, per-sender) //! - retrieve all transactions from a sender //! - binary search for position to insert the transaction //! - decide if we are replacing existing transaction (3 outcomes: drop, replace, insert) //! - update best and worst transaction from that sender if affected //! 4. Pending List construction: //! - Take the best transaction (by priority) from all senders to the List //! - Replace the transaction with next transaction (by ordering) from that sender (if any) //! - Repeat #![warn(missing_docs)] extern crate smallvec; extern crate ethereum_types; #[macro_use] extern crate error_chain; #[macro_use] extern crate log; #[cfg(test)] mod tests; mod error; mod listener; mod options; mod pool; mod ready; mod status; mod transactions; mod verifier; pub mod scoring; pub use self::listener::{Listener, NoopListener}; pub use self::options::Options; pub use self::pool::Pool; pub use self::ready::{Ready, Readiness}; pub use self::scoring::Scoring; pub use self::status::{LightStatus, Status}; pub use self::verifier::Verifier; use std::fmt; use ethereum_types::{H256, Address}; /// Already verified transaction that can be safely queued. pub trait VerifiedTransaction: fmt::Debug { /// Transaction hash fn hash(&self) -> &H256; /// Memory usage fn mem_usage(&self) -> usize; /// Transaction sender fn sender(&self) -> &Address; /// Unique index of insertion (lower = older). fn insertion_id(&self) -> u64; }
