We don't impose any alignment on hashable types, but this means the
hashing function is doing invalid misaligned access when converting to a
size_t. This aligns all of the primitive data types (crypto::hash,
public keys, etc.) to the same alignment as size_t.
That cascades into a few places in epee which only allow byte spanning
types that have byte alignment when what it really requires is just that
the type has no padding. In C++17 this is exactly the purpose of
std::has_unique_object_representations, but that isn't available (or
even implementable) in C++14 so add specializations for the type that
need it to tell epee that we know those types are properly packed and
that it can safely use them as bytes.
Related to this, monero/epee also misuses `is_standard_layout` when the
purpose is actually `is_trivially_copyable`, so fixed that too. (You
need the latter but don't need the former for a type to be safely
memcpy'able; the only purpose of `is_standard_layout` is when you need
to be sure your structs are compatible with C structs which is
irrelevant here).
Unify the field we use to store the count as `_count` (using the leading
underscore to indicate a private value rather than an intended enum
value) and add/use a new `enum_count` template variable to extract the
_count enum value and cast it to the enum's underlying_type.
Lets you write `memcpy_le(dest, foo, bar, baz)` and memcpy the contents
of foo, bar, and baz sequentially. Additionally, if any of those three
are integers, they are converted to little-endian order.
In practice, this seems to cause monero-wallet-rpc to exit
when ^C quits whatever its output is piped into (such as tee),
but it saves, while it did not before.
This avoids having to include p2p_protocol_defs.h in util.h,
as util.h is used a lot, and p2p_protocol_defs.h includes
a lot of other things that most users don't need.
This replaces the epee and data_loggers logging systems with
a single one, and also adds filename:line and explicit severity
levels. Categories may be defined, and logging severity set
by category (or set of categories). epee style 0-4 log level
maps to a sensible severity configuration. Log files now also
rotate when reaching 100 MB.
To select which logs to output, use the MONERO_LOGS environment
variable, with a comma separated list of categories (globs are
supported), with their requested severity level after a colon.
If a log matches more than one such setting, the last one in
the configuration string applies. A few examples:
This one is (mostly) silent, only outputting fatal errors:
MONERO_LOGS=*:FATAL
This one is very verbose:
MONERO_LOGS=*:TRACE
This one is totally silent (logwise):
MONERO_LOGS=""
This one outputs all errors and warnings, except for the
"verify" category, which prints just fatal errors (the verify
category is used for logs about incoming transactions and
blocks, and it is expected that some/many will fail to verify,
hence we don't want the spam):
MONERO_LOGS=*:WARNING,verify:FATAL
Log levels are, in decreasing order of priority:
FATAL, ERROR, WARNING, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE
Subcategories may be added using prefixes and globs. This
example will output net.p2p logs at the TRACE level, but all
other net* logs only at INFO:
MONERO_LOGS=*:ERROR,net*:INFO,net.p2p:TRACE
Logs which are intended for the user (which Monero was using
a lot through epee, but really isn't a nice way to go things)
should use the "global" category. There are a few helper macros
for using this category, eg: MGINFO("this shows up by default")
or MGINFO_RED("this is red"), to try to keep a similar look
and feel for now.
Existing epee log macros still exist, and map to the new log
levels, but since they're used as a "user facing" UI element
as much as a logging system, they often don't map well to log
severities (ie, a log level 0 log may be an error, or may be
something we want the user to see, such as an important info).
In those cases, I tried to use the new macros. In other cases,
I left the existing macros in. When modifying logs, it is
probably best to switch to the new macros with explicit levels.
The --log-level options and set_log commands now also accept
category settings, in addition to the epee style log levels.
It sets the max number of threads to use for a parallel job.
This is different that the number of total threads, since monero
binaries typically start a lot of them.
^C while in manual refresh will cancel the refresh, since that's
often an annoying thing to have to wait for. Also, a manual refresh
command will interrupt any running background refresh and take
over, rather than wait for the background refresh to be done, and
look to be hanging.
There are various locale related bugs in various versions of boost,
where exceptions are thrown in boost::filesystem APIs when the
current locale is not to boost's liking. It's not clear what "not
to boost's liking" means in detail, though "en" and "en_US.UTF-8"
are not to its liking.
Fix it by running a test function that's known to throw in such
a case, and resetting LANG and LC_ALL to C if an exception is
thrown. In simplewallet, the locale is queried before that so the
correct translations will still be used.
