CryptoNight does exactly 524,288 iterations over the scratchpad as defined in CNS008, saying 500,000 could be confusing. I know its meant to give a rough idea (around 500k) to the reader but if you are reading the code, might as well know the exact number.
View wallets do not have the spend secret key, and are thus
unable to derive key images for incoming outputs. Moreover,
a previous patch set key images to zero as a means to mark
an output as having an unknown key image, so they could be
filled in when importing key images at a later time. That
later patch caused spurious collisions. We now use public
keys to detect duplicate outputs. Public keys obtained from
the blockchain are checked to be identical to the ones
derived locally, so can't be spoofed.
Keep the immediate direct deps at the library that depends on them,
declare deps as PUBLIC so that targets that link against that library
get the library's deps as transitive deps.
Break dep cycle between blockchain_db <-> crytonote_core.
No code refactoring, just hide cycle from cmake so that
it doesn't complain (cycles are allowed only between
static libs, not shared libs).
This is in preparation for supproting BUILD_SHARED_LIBS cmake
built-in option for building internal libs as shared.
This was disabled earlier as part of diagnosing failing tests
on ARM, which turned out to be due to aliasing, fixed by
adding -fno-strict-aliasing. So, re-enabling it back.
This allows the key to be not the same for two outputs sent to
the same address (eg, if you pay yourself, and also get change
back). Also remove the key amounts lists and return parameters
since we don't actually generate random ones, so we don't need
to save them as we can recalculate them when needed if we have
the correct keys.
Setting to no or 0 also works. If set, any other value enables it.
Useful for running with valgrind in cases where it fails at
properly implementing AES-NI.
0a4bc84 Added ref10 shen_ed25519_ref code, which includes code that can replace crypto-ops with a version straight from Bernstein's ref 10 (ShenNoether)
0d70fdc revert to 776b4fc91a (ShenNoether)
b01f286 Added shen_ed25519_ref to crypto ops subfolder, the point is to directly have bitmonero's crypto code come from bernstein et al's ref 10 code (ShenNoether)
Pros:
- smaller on the blockchain
- shorter integrated addresses
Cons:
- less sparseness
- less ability to embed actual information
The boolean argument to encrypt payment ids is now gone from the
RPC calls, since the decision is made based on the length of the
payment id passed.
