  • fixed memory leak: #1059

• New RPC Calls

  • eth_getTransactionByHash
  • eth_getTransactionByBlockHashAndIndex

SHA256

Release SHA256: 2c6451c61aff4aaf3816a9986e314c033b47f4272c35bc40f5bbab9a9ce89367

To validate, use make docker && docker run turbo-geth:latest sha256sum /usr/local/bin/tg.

It should be the same if building on Linux with go 1.15.

v2020.09.01-alpha

Changelog

• based of go-ethereum 1.9.20

• sync on HDD with --hdd flag (experimental)

• new RPC APIs eth_getLogs, eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber, eth_getBlockTransactionCountByHash, net_peerCount (with hardcoded result),

• fixes for RPC APIs:

  • eth_blockNumber: now returns the blocks that were fully processed
  • eth_getBlockByNumber: fix latest support

• updated documentation

• better behaviour at the tip of the chain (faster performance, less trafic): supporting NewBlock notifications

• websockets support in the RPC daemon

• fixes for unwinds

• Memory leak of crypto contexts is fixed

• net_version crash fixed: #935

• "Recover Senders" stage is fixed in Docker on Xeons: #892, #885

• Fix data corruption when unwinding

• Sync performance improvements when the node is following the tip of the blockchain #947

• Subfolder in data directory for temp files: #959

• eth_getBlockByHash #958

• Ethash implementation improvements:

  • don't store caches to disk (were prone to be corrupted on USB drives)

  • keep separate folder for DAGs (don't clash with go-ethereum)
