The code in the Tendermint repository makes heavy use of import aliasing.
This is made necessary by our extensive reuse of common base package names, and
by repetition of similar names across different subdirectories.
Unfortunately we have not been very consistent about which packages we alias in
various circumstances, and the aliases we use vary. In the spirit of the advice
in the style guide and https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments#imports,
his change makes an effort to clean up and normalize import aliasing.
This change makes no API or behavioral changes. It is a pure cleanup intended
o help make the code more readable to developers (including myself) trying to
understand what is being imported where.
Only unexported names have been modified, and the changes were generated and
applied mechanically with gofmt -r and comby, respecting the lexical and
syntactic rules of Go. Even so, I did not fix every inconsistency. Where the
changes would be too disruptive, I left it alone.
The principles I followed in this cleanup are:
- Remove aliases that restate the package name.
- Remove aliases where the base package name is unambiguous.
- Move overly-terse abbreviations from the import to the usage site.
- Fix lexical issues (remove underscores, remove capitalization).
- Fix import groupings to more closely match the style guide.
- Group blank (side-effecting) imports and ensure they are commented.
- Add aliases to multiple imports with the same base package name.
## Description
Check block protocol version in header validate basic.
I tried searching for where we check the P2P protocol version but was unable to find it. When we check compatibility with a node we check we both have the same block protocol and are on the same network, but we do not check if we are on the same P2P protocol. It makes sense if there is a handshake change because we would not be able to establish a secure connection, but a p2p protocol version bump may be because of a p2p message change, which would go unnoticed until that message is sent over the wire. Is this purposeful?
Closes: #4790
Closes: #4537
Uses SignedHeaderBefore to find header before unverified header and then bisection to verify the header. Only when header is between first and last trusted header height else if before the first trusted header height then regular backwards verification is used.
closes#4469
Improved speed of cleanup by using SignedHeaderAfter instead of TrustedHeader to jump from header to header.
Prune() is now called when a new header and validator set are saved and is a function dealt by the database itself
## Commits:
* prune headers and vals
* modified cleanup and tests
* fixes after my own review
* implement Prune func
* make db ops concurrently safe
* use Iterator in SignedHeaderAfter
we should iterate from height+1, not from the end!
* simplify cleanup

Before we were storing trustedHeader (height=1) and trustedNextVals
(height=2).
After this change, we will be storing trustedHeader (height=1) and
trustedVals (height=1). This a) simplifies the code b) fixes#4399
inconsistent pairing issue c) gives a relayer access to the current
validator set #4470.
The only downside is more jumps during bisection. If validator set
changes between trustedHeader and the next header (by 2/3 or more), the
light client will be forced to download the next header and check that
2/3+ signed the transition. But we don't expect validator set change too
much and too often, so it's an acceptable compromise.
Closes#4470 and #4399
Closes#4328
When TrustedHeader(height) is called, if the height is less than the trusted height but the header is not in the trusted store then a function finds the previous lowest height with a trusted header and performs a forwards sequential verification to the header of the height that was given. If no error is found it updates the trusted store with the header and validator set for that height and can then return them to the user.
Commits:
* drafted trusted header
* created function to find previous trusted height
* updates missing headers less than the trusted height
* minor cosmetic tweaks
* incorporated suggestions
* lite2: implement Backwards verification
and add SignedHeaderAfter func to Store interface
Refs https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/issues/4328#issuecomment-581878549
* remove unused method
* write tests
* start with next height in SignedHeaderAfter func
* fix linter errors
* address Callum's comments

* lite2: move AutoClient into Client
Most of the users will want auto update feature, so it makes sense to
move it into the Client itself, rather than having a separate
abstraction (it makes the code cleaner, but introduces an extra thing
the user will need to learn).
Also, add `FirstTrustedHeight` func to Client to get first trusted height.
* fix db store tests
* separate examples for auto and manual clients
* AutoUpdate tries to update to latest state
NOT 1 header at a time
* fix errors
* lite2: make Logger an option
remove SetLogger func
* fix lite cmd
* lite2: make concurrency assumptions explicit
* fixes after my own review
* no need for nextHeightFn
sequence func will download intermediate headers
* correct comment
