dcrd v1.8.1

This is a patch release of dcrd that includes some updates to the RPC server and JSON-RPC API in light of the changes made by DCP0011 as follows:

  • The getblock and getblockheader RPCs now have an additional powhash field for the new Proof-of-Work hash
  • The getnetworkhashps RPC now treats -1 for the blocks parameter as the default number of blocks versus the previous behavior that is no longer applicable to the new difficulty ajustement algorithm

The RPC server version as of this release is 8.1.0.

Changelog

This patch release consists of 5 commits from 2 contributors which total to 7 files changed, 47 additional lines of code, and 29 deleted lines of code.

dcrwallet v1.8.1

This release contains important bug fixes for VSP users.

Bug fixes

  • A warning is logged if a VSP fee payment could not be created due to a locked wallet (1c1bcfbd).

  • VSP fee payments started by RPC requests are no longer cancelled early after the RPC returns (07854e37).

  • The random duration interval during which ticket fee payment operations occur was fixed using the correct calculation of when a ticket goes live (c4c6c421).

  • Fee payment confirmations are no longer assumed to be valid after they receive 6 confirmations, and the VSP is contacted to ensure that it has also confirmed the payment (7c551ce6).

  • Block heights for ticket liveness and expiry are recalculated properly whenever unmined tickets are processed by the VSP client (1319da0b).

New features

  • The verbose getblock and getblockheader JSON-RPC results now include a powhash field with the hash calculated for the Proof-of-Work algorithm.
