This was introduced by commit ab9edbd6b6.
It appears the original author may have gotten tired and pasted the wrong
error code into this 1 place. Every other situation where the value stack
lacks the required number of arguments for the op-code,
SCRIPT_ERR_INVALID_STACK_OPERATION is reported. Not so here.
This commit fixes the situation.
Also in this commit:
- Fix script_tests to adjust to the corrected error message
- Fix p2p_invalid_tx functional test to produce the desired error message
Various test vectors
mainnet_alt.json
For easier testing the difficulty is maximally increased in the first (and only) retarget period, by producing blocks approximately 2 minutes apart.
The alternate mainnet chain was generated as follows:
- use faketime to set node clock to 2 minutes after genesis block
- mine a block using a CPU miner such as https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer
- restart node with a faketime 2 minutes later
for i in {1..2015}
do
faketime "`date -d @"$(( 1231006505 + $i * 120 ))" +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'`" \
bitcoind -connect=0 -nocheckpoints -stopatheight=$i
done
The CPU miner is kept running as follows:
./minerd --coinbase-addr 1NQpH6Nf8QtR2HphLRcvuVqfhXBXsiWn8r --no-stratum --algo sha256d --no-longpoll --scantime 3 --retry-pause 1
The payout address is derived from first BIP32 test vector master key:
pkh(xprv9s21ZrQH143K3QTDL4LXw2F7HEK3wJUD2nW2nRk4stbPy6cq3jPPqjiChkVvvNKmPGJxWUtg6LnF5kejMRNNU3TGtRBeJgk33yuGBxrMPHi/44h/0h/0h/<0;1>/*)#fkjtr0yn
It uses pkh() because tr() outputs at low heights are not spendable (unexpected-witness).
This makes each block deterministic except for its timestamp and nonce, which
are stored in mainnet_alt.json and used to reconstruct the chain without
having to redo the proof-of-work.
The timestamp was not kept constant because at difficulty 1 it's not sufficient to only grind the nonce. Grinding the extra_nonce or version field instead would have required additional (stratum) software. It would also make it more complicated to reconstruct the blocks in this test.
