I've been noticing that there are a number of situations where the
statesync reactor blocks waiting for peers (or similar,) I've moved
things around to improve outcomes in local tests.
This PR make some tweaks to backfill after running e2e tests:
- Separates sync and backfill as two distinct processes that the node calls. The reason is because if sync fails then the node should fail but if backfill fails it is still possible to proceed.
- Removes peers who don't have the block at a height from the local peer list. As the process goes backwards if a node doesn't have a block at a height they're likely pruning blocks and thus they won't have any prior ones either.
- Sleep when we've run out of peers, then try again.
`abci.Client`:
- Sync and Async methods now accept a context for cancellation
* grpc client uses context to cancel both Sync and Async requests
* local client ignores context parameter
* socket client uses context to cancel Sync requests and to drop Async requests before sending them if context was cancelled prior to that
- Async methods return an error
* socket client returns an error immediately if queue is full for Async requests
* local client always returns nil error
* grpc client returns an error if context was cancelled before we got response or the receiving queue had a space for response (do not confuse with the sending queue from the socket client)
- specify clients semantics in [doc.go](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tendermint/tendermint/27112fffa62276bc016d56741f686f0f77931748/abci/client/doc.go)
`mempool.TxInfo`
- add optional `Context` to `TxInfo`, which can be used to cancel `CheckTx` request
Closes#5190
Fixes#828. Adds state sync, as outlined in [ADR-053](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/docs/architecture/adr-053-state-sync-prototype.md). See related PRs in Cosmos SDK (https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/5803) and Gaia (https://github.com/cosmos/gaia/pull/327).
This is split out of the previous PR #4645, and branched off of the ABCI interface in #4704.
* Adds a new P2P reactor which exchanges snapshots with peers, and bootstraps an empty local node from remote snapshots when requested.
* Adds a new configuration section `[statesync]` that enables state sync and configures the light client. Also enables `statesync:info` logging by default.
* Integrates state sync into node startup. Does not support the v2 blockchain reactor, since it needs some reorganization to defer startup.
