Currently the top level directory contains basically all of the code
for the crypto package. This PR moves the crypto code into submodules
in a similar manner to what `golang/x/crypto` does. This improves code
organization.
Ref discussion: https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/pull/1966Closes#1956
This is a maintenance change to move the private validator package out
of the types and to a top-level location. There is no good reason to
keep it under the types and it will more clearly coommunicate where
additions related to the privval belong. It leaves the interface and the
mock in types for now as it would introduce circular dependency between
privval and types, this should be resolved eventually.
* mv priv_validator to privval pkg
* use consistent `privval` as import
Follow-up to #1255
Follow-up to feedback from #1286, this change simplifies the connection
handling in the SocketClient and makes the communication via TCP more
robust. It introduces the tcpTimeoutListener to encapsulate accept and
i/o timeout handling as well as connection keep-alive, this type could
likely be upgraded to handle more fine-grained tuning of the tcp stack
(linger, nodelay, etc.) according to the properties we desire. The same
methods should be applied to the RemoteSigner which will be overhauled
when the priv_val_server is fleshed out.
* require private key
* simplify connect logic
* break out conn upgrades to tcpTimeoutListener
* extend test coverage and simplify component setup
Follow-up to #1255 aligning with the expectation that the external
signing process connects to the node. The SocketClient will block on
start until one connection has been established, support for multiple
signers connected simultaneously is a planned future extension.
* SocketClient accepts connection
* PrivValSocketServer renamed to RemoteSigner
* extend tests
To achieve faster feedback cycles for our feature PRs this change
reduces the average buildtime from 35 to ~6min by utilising their new
2.0 offering based on docker and nomad. We make use of parallel build
steps wherever possible so that the duration is determined by the
slowest test suite (p2p).
This is an intermediate step until we move our CI/CD completely
on-premise for more control and added security.
Following ADDR 008 the node will connect to an external
process to handle signing requests. Operation of the external process is
left to the user.
* introduce alias for PrivValidator interface on socket client
* integrate socket client in node
* structure tests
* remove unnecessary flag
As calls to the private validator can involve side-effects like network
communication it is desirable for all methods returning an error to not
break the control flow of the caller.
* adjust PrivValidator interface
