Previously we've used `try_into().expect()` because const generics were
unavailable. Then they became available but we didn't realize we could
already convert a bunch of code to not use panicking conversions. But we
can (and could for a while).
This adds an extension trait for arrays to provide basic non-panicking
operations returning arrays, so they can be composed with other
functions accepting arrays without any conversions. It also refactors a
bunch of code to use the non-panicking constructs but it's certainly not
all of it. That could be done later. This just aims at removing the
ugliest offenders and demonstrate the usefulness of this approach.
Aside from this, to avoid a bunch of duplicated work, this refactors
BIP32 key parsing to use a common method where xpub and xpriv are
encoded the same. Not doing this already led to a mistake where xpriv
implemented some additional checks that were missing in xpub. Thus this
change also indirectly fixes that bug.
We just added a `Timestamp` type without knowing that there was a push
by OpenTimestamps to also create a timestamp and that our new type may
lead to confusion. Our timestamp is explicitly for the `time` field in a
block so we can call it `BlockTime`. This name change makes the module
name stale but we will change that in a following patch to ease review.
Bitcoin block headers have a timestamp. Currently we are using a
`u32`. while this functions correctly it gives the compiler no chance
to enforce type safety.
Add a `Timestamp` newtype that is a thin wrapper around a `u32`.
Document it and test the API surface in `api.rs`.
Rust macros, while at times useful, are a maintenance nightmare. And
we have been bitten by calling macros from other crates multiple times
in the past.
In a push to just use less macros remove the usage of the
`impl_from_infallible` macro in the bitcoin, units, and internals crates
and just write the code.
There is a loose convention in Rust to not use `test_` prefix. The
reason being that `cargo test` outputs 'test <test name>' using the
prefix makes the output stutter.
This patch smells a bit like code-churn but having the prefix in some
places and not others is confusing to new contributors and is leading me
to explain this many times now. Lets just fix it.
Remove the prefix unless doing so breaks the code.
On the way re-design the API by doing:
- Introduce `Checked` and `Unchecked` tags
- Rename the `txdata` field to `transactions`
- Make the `Block` fields private
- Add getters for `header` and `transactions` fields
- Move the various `compute_` methods to be free standing functions
- Make the `check_` functions private
- Introduce extension traits
There is a range of different wordings used in the docs of constructor
type functions.
Change all to start with `Constructs a new` or `Constructs an empty`.
In functions that act like constructors there is a mixture of the usage
of `creates` and `constructs`.
Replace all occurrences of `creates` with `constructs` in the first line
of docs of constructor like functions.
The current feature gating is wrong, this bug is unreleased because it
was introduced #2585.
The `impl_array_newtype` macro is only used in the `bitcoin` crate, it
does not need to be in `internals`. Also, other crates have an `alloc`
feature which `bitcoin` does not have so if we ever need it in other
places we'll need a duplicate with the correct feature gating anyways.
Move the macro to `bitcoin::internal_macros` and remove the incorrect
`alloc` feature gating.
The `consensus::encode::Error` contains an IO error but reading from a
buffer only ever errors for EOF. We converted all instances of EOF to
`MissingData` already so now we can split the IO error apart from the
actual encoding errors variants.
The `encode::Error::ParseFailed` variant holds an inner string, this is
suboptimal.
In an effort to patch the `encode::Error` while mimizing the diffs
required add a helper function that creates the variant. The benefit is
that later patches that effect this variant will only need to update the
constructor function and not every call site.
Internal change only.

If folk really want to index into a hash they can us `as_byte_array`
then index that.
Includes a bump to the version number of `hashes` to `v0.15.0` - this
is because otherwise `secp` won't build since we are breaking an API
that is used in the current release of secp.

Recently we removed the `all_zeros` function from `OutPoint` in favour
of a more meaningfully named associated const. We can do the same for
`BlockHash`, the all zeros has is used for the previous blockhash of the
genesis block, add a const named as such.
In test code where we use the `all_zeros` function, just use the more
explicit form `from_byte_array([0; 32])`.
At some stage we named the compact encoding `VarInt` (which makes sense
because the compact size encoding is a variable length integer encoding).
However it turns out the term "varint" is used in Core for a different
encoding so this may lead to confusion.
While we fix this naming thing observe also that the `VarInt` type is
unnecessarily complicated, all we need to be able to do is encode and
decode integers in compact form as specified by Core. We can do this
simply by extending our `WriteExt` and `ReadExt` traits.
Add `emit_compact_size` and `read_compact_size` to emit and read compact
endcodings respectively.
Includes addition of `internals::compact_size::encoded_size_const`.
Patch originally written by Steven, Tobin cherry-picked and did a bunch
of impovements after the varint vs compact_size thing (#1016).

A new nightly version (`nightly-2024-08-28`) introduces a few warnings
because of our rustdocs. These are valid warnings and should be fixed,
thanks `clippy` team.
(The `bip152` change is a bit sloppy, open to suggestions.)
We already explicitly do not support 16 bit machines.
Also, because Rust supports `u182`s one cannot infallibly convert from a
`usize` to a `u64`. This is unergonomic and results in a ton of casts.
We can instead limit our code to running only on machines where `usize`
is less that or equal to 64 bits then the infallible conversion is
possible.
Since 128 bit machines are not a thing yet this does not in reality
introduce any limitations on the library.
Add a "private" trait to the `internals` crate to do infallible
conversion to a `u64` from `usize`.
Implement it for all unsigned integers smaller than `u64` as well so
we have the option to use the trait instead of `u32::from(foo)`.

Wildcards have been replaced with what is actually used.
In a couple of cases an additional use statement was added to the test
module to import `DisplayHex` which is only used in test, but
previously imported with the wildcard at the top.
This is a continuation of the previous commit, but separated to make
review a little easier. This one replaces test vectors that were
previously computed by hashing garbage into Txids and various other hash
types with new test vectors which are directly-computed garbage
converted to hashes with from_byte_array.
In one case (src/hash_types.rs) this results in changing a bunch of
fixed test vectors. This is okay; this test is supposed to check the
direction of string serialization, which is unaffected by this commit
(or any commit in this PR). The existing test vectors, because they hash
the empty string, result in different bytes depending on the underlying
hash algo (sha256, sha256d, sha256t, etc). The new ones just use the
same fixed test vector for all of them.
This commit also updates a doctest in crypto/sighash.rs which
demonstrates how to manually feed sighash data into a hash engine and
correctly handle the sighash single bug. Because you can no longer
directly get a sighash object from an engine, this particular example
should maybe be rewritten to just encode to a Vec rather than a hash
engine, explaining that maybe you'd do this when implementing a HWW, to
verify the exact data being hashed. Or something.
Unrelatedly, you can check that there are no API changes in this commit
or the last several. The next commit will remove GeneralHash impls and
that's when you'll see changes.
the `blockdata` directory is code organisation thing, all the
types/modules are re-exported from other places. In preparation for, and
to make easier, the `primitives` crate smashing work - remove all
explicit usage of `blockdata`.
Note that the few instances remain as they seem required e.g.,
`pub(in crate::blockdata::script)`
Refactor only, no logic changes.
Currently we are defining the two merkle tree hash types in the `block`
module, a better home for them is the `merkle_tree` module.
This is an API breaking change because the types were public in the
`block` module, however the change should/could be unnoticeable to users
if they use the crate level re-export - which is maintained.
Currently we have a trait `Hash` that is required for `Hmac`, `Hkdf`,
and other use cases. However, it is unegonomic for users who just want
to do a simple hash to have to import the trait.
Add inherent functions to all hash types including those created with
the new wrapper type macros.
This patch introduces some duplicate code but we are trying to make
progress in the hashes API re-write. We can come back and de-dublicate
later.
Includes making `to_byte_array`,`from_byte_array`, `as_byte_array`, and
`all_zeros` const where easily possible.
