1952019-04-12T19:01:37 <gribble> https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/15761 | Replace -upgradewallet startup option with upgradewallet RPC by achow101 · Pull Request #15761 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
1962019-04-12T19:02:14 <kanzure> hi
1972019-04-12T19:02:26 <jnewbery> This PR is to replace the -upgradewallet startup option, which is great news
1982019-04-12T19:03:01 <jnewbery> achow is proposing to replace it with an RPC. There were a couple of other suggestions on what to replace it with in the PR and I wanted to poll for opinions
1992019-04-12T19:03:10 <achow101> I think the primary question is RPC, wallet-tool command, or both
2002019-04-12T19:03:30 <achow101> I prefer both
2012019-04-12T19:03:47 <jnewbery> I'm slightly concerned about having an RPC that can upgrade at any time. I just feel that it might introduce subtle corner cases if the wallet is doing something else at the time
2022019-04-12T19:04:16 <jnewbery> but I might be wrong. Perhaps it's fine
2032019-04-12T19:04:44 <achow101> the whole operation is locked, and any operations on the wallet are also locked, so I don't think that's really a problem
2042019-04-12T19:04:47 <jnewbery> (I'm definitely a big concept ACK on moving away from startup option)
2052019-04-12T19:05:28 <kanzure> does upgradewallet replace the wallet or does it create an upgraded wallet only?
2062019-04-12T19:05:40 <achow101> kanzure: it just upgrades the wallet file
2072019-04-12T19:05:52 <luke-jr> could be only allowed when loading
2082019-04-12T19:06:03 <meshcollider> I'm in favour of both too
2092019-04-12T19:06:50 <jnewbery> luke-jr: that's one suggestion in the PR. Another option would be to only allow it on wallets that aren't currently loaded.
2102019-04-12T19:07:11 <jnewbery> (ie separate upgrade from running entirely)
2112019-04-12T19:07:13 <achow101> jnewbery: what if upgradewallet unloads it, upgrades, then reloads it
2122019-04-12T19:07:29 <achow101> that would disconnect all of the signals and stuff that would cause issues
2132019-04-12T19:07:34 <kanzure> need lock during upgrade
2142019-04-12T19:07:38 <kanzure> so that they don't reopen
2152019-04-12T19:07:52 <kanzure> in achow101's flow.
2162019-04-12T19:08:16 <jnewbery> Should we encourage users to backup before they upgrade?
2172019-04-12T19:08:30 <meshcollider> kanzure: I think thats the current behavior anyway
2182019-04-12T19:08:53 <kanzure> meshcollider: ok, i thought the lock only applies to loaded wallets. nevermind.
2192019-04-12T19:09:29 <achow101> kanzure: meshcollider: in the idea I just proposed, you would have to lock something to prevent loading the wallet during upgarde
2202019-04-12T19:09:35 <luke-jr> jnewbery: at least after
2212019-04-12T19:09:58 <harding> Wallet files are generally small. If you think a backup is important, it's probably better to just make one automatically and stuff it somewhere in ~/.bitcoin/
2222019-04-12T19:10:07 <achow101> jnewbery: probably. the help text for the RPC does say that backups after are required
2232019-04-12T19:10:15 <achow101> I can change it to also say before too
2242019-04-12T19:10:32 <meshcollider> backup before can be done automatically like harding suggests
2252019-04-12T19:10:41 <meshcollider> Make a wallet.old or something
2262019-04-12T19:10:47 <harding> (Backup after is a different thing, since that's talking about off-disk backups.)
2272019-04-12T19:11:14 <luke-jr> achow101: well, only after is *required*..
2282019-04-12T19:12:58 <achow101> right
2292019-04-12T19:14:17 <achow101> I think it's possible to make both an upgradewallet RPC and wallet-tool command work safely
2302019-04-12T19:15:58 <meshcollider> It doesn't seem like theres any real objection to that
2312019-04-12T19:16:56 <meshcollider> jnewbery: anything else to discuss on this topic?
2322019-04-12T19:17:12 <jnewbery> nothing from me

2372019-04-12T19:18:26 <achow101> the only question I really have is what to do with the tests for the old wallet stuff
2382019-04-12T19:18:50 <jnewbery> I think it's pretty important to keep those tests
2392019-04-12T19:18:58 <achow101> currently I have a bunch of tests removed or changed because they don't work with descriptor wallets
2402019-04-12T19:19:17 <jnewbery> Most users will still be using non-descriptor wallets for some time. We can't just stop testing those and hope there are no regressions
2412019-04-12T19:19:19 *** DeanGuss has joined #bitcoin-core-dev
2422019-04-12T19:19:45 <ryanofsky> you can add descriptors as an optional feature, there's no need to remove old code or old tests
2432019-04-12T19:22:31 <achow101> ryanofsky: that's an option, but I feel like descriptors and its new definitions is such a departure from current wallet stuff that it should have better distinction than just a wallet flag
2442019-04-12T19:23:57 <ryanofsky> you are referring to the practical downside of having to keep more code around?
2452019-04-12T19:23:58 <achow101> e.g. it's possible for someone to write code which accidentally unsets the wallet flag. it's much harder to accidentally downgrade the version
2462019-04-12T19:24:01 <meshcollider> Does your PR remove the ability to generate new "old" wallets
2472019-04-12T19:24:15 <achow101> meshcollider: yes
2482019-04-12T19:24:22 <achow101> (it's a wallet version bump)
2492019-04-12T19:26:02 <sipa> achow101: i think, even for just testing purposes, we'll need to retain the ability to create old wallets
2502019-04-12T19:26:15 <jnewbery> The main downside of it being a flag rather than a version is that it becomes combinatorially more difficult to test everything
2512019-04-12T19:26:24 <sipa> as this is a very invasive change, and i don't think we want to lose the ability to test old logic
2522019-04-12T19:26:51 <jnewbery> I think that the default should be that newly created wallets are old-style, and users need to explicitly upgrade

2562019-04-12T19:27:09 <achow101> jnewbery: how come?
2572019-04-12T19:27:45 <achow101> I think an explicit upgrade is actually far more dangerous than creating a new descriptor wallet
2582019-04-12T19:27:45 <jnewbery> because like you say, it's a big departure from the current wallet design
2592019-04-12T19:28:10 <jnewbery> we need to support both for some time to come, so why not take the conservative approach for now
2602019-04-12T19:28:21 <meshcollider> I think thats sensible for now, old wallet generation can be "deprecated" later on
2612019-04-12T19:29:17 <ryanofsky> yeah, i just think you don't need to add descriptors as this big one time change
2622019-04-12T19:29:50 <jnewbery> > I think an explicit upgrade is actually far more dangerous...
2632019-04-12T19:29:51 <ryanofsky> you can add new functionality alongside existing functionality, you will get better review better testing
2642019-04-12T19:30:07 <jnewbery> We definitely shouldn't be releasing wallet code that we think is *in any way* dangerous

2692019-04-12T19:31:03 <achow101> jnewbery: the upgrade stuff I think will be inherently dangerous. shoehorning the old ismine logic into the new ismine logic is not trivial and they are incompatible in many different ways
2702019-04-12T19:31:35 <ryanofsky> achow101, you don't even need to add upgrade in the initial pr
2712019-04-12T19:32:10 <ryanofsky> we can add support for just creating new descriptor wallets, or just importing descriptors first
2722019-04-12T19:32:28 <jnewbery> i don't agree that it's inherently dangerous. We just need to do lots of testing until we're satisfied that it's no longer dangerous
2732019-04-12T19:32:30 <meshcollider> provoostenator is having IRC issues and can't send messages here atm but would like to point out he also has a slightly different (and perhaps less complete) PR open: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/15487
2742019-04-12T19:32:45 <jnewbery> and roll it out slowly, with warnings to backup, etc
2752019-04-12T19:32:49 <achow101> ryanofsky: right
2762019-04-12T19:33:36 <jnewbery> Everything ryanofsky is suggesting is still possible by using wallet versions and not flags
2772019-04-12T19:33:37 <achow101> ryanofsky: we shouldn't allow people to create mixed descriptor and non-descriptor wllets though. so no importing descriptors
2782019-04-12T19:34:05 <achow101> jnewbery: making it optional is not
2792019-04-12T19:34:19 <achow101> that should only be done with flags
2802019-04-12T19:34:29 <jnewbery> why not? Add a new parameter to createwallet
2812019-04-12T19:34:50 <ryanofsky> yeah, i'm not sure you actually need a version or a flag

2842019-04-12T19:35:17 <achow101> the last time we did optional version was hd wallet and that was a headache to reconcile with upgrades in the future. I would rather not go through that excercise again
2852019-04-12T19:35:18 <jnewbery> default to false
2862019-04-12T19:35:37 <jnewbery> we need to handle upgrades anyway. You already have code to do that

2892019-04-12T19:36:12 <provoostenator> YES!

2912019-04-12T19:36:23 <jnewbery> hi sjors!
2922019-04-12T19:36:24 <provoostenator> That was weird, I've been talking into a void for a day or so :-)
2932019-04-12T19:37:03 <provoostenator> In my version of descriptor wallets it's a feature flag and opt-in. Obviously this sort of thing is easy to tweak.
2942019-04-12T19:37:16 <achow101> jnewbery: I think we should maintain the separation of wallet flags for optional, wallet version for mandatory
2952019-04-12T19:37:17 <provoostenator> I'll do a more thorough comparison later.
2962019-04-12T19:37:58 <jnewbery> wallet version is optional. Upgrading from an old version to new is optional
2972019-04-12T19:37:59 <meshcollider> achow101: but why not just allow the wallet to be created with either version number
2982019-04-12T19:38:06 <jnewbery> right
2992019-04-12T19:38:14 <ryanofsky> jnewbery, i think version numbers are just confusing and should never be used again
3002019-04-12T19:38:52 <jnewbery> They are confusing, but they at least cut down on the number of combinations of options
3012019-04-12T19:38:52 <ryanofsky> your concern about testing and flag combinations is easily addressed by just refusing to load / support wallets with whatever combinations of flags you want to rule out
3022019-04-12T19:39:26 <jnewbery> I think that's effectively the same thing, no?
3032019-04-12T19:39:33 <meshcollider> IIRC in lightning, when exchanging feature lists, there are some optional features and some mandatory features based on bit positions
3042019-04-12T19:39:36 <ryanofsky> yes, exactly
3052019-04-12T19:39:49 <achow101> meshcollider: jnewbery: the problem with optional wallet versions is that any future wallet version becomes optional as well. You can't e.g. skip descriptor wallets and go to the version after that which introduces something completely unrelated to descriptors
3062019-04-12T19:39:56 <ryanofsky> anything you want to do with version numbers is possible with flags, but flags are more readable and easier to think about
3072019-04-12T19:40:00 <achow101> reconciling the two becomes a pain, as it was for hd wallets
3082019-04-12T19:40:17 <jnewbery> achow101 that's always the case with version numbers
3092019-04-12T19:40:24 <meshcollider> We dont have to add any new features to old style wallets from now on
3102019-04-12T19:40:35 <meshcollider> Force a descriptor upgrade before any other upgrade
3112019-04-12T19:40:39 *** owowo has quit IRC
3122019-04-12T19:40:45 <ryanofsky> because you don't have to mentally load the whole project history to figure out what conditions are possible, it's just written explicitly in code
3132019-04-12T19:41:08 <provoostenator> I'd rather not force upgrades anytime soon. That most likely will lead to endless delays in shipping.
3142019-04-12T19:41:11 <jnewbery> even if you don't make the version 'optional', there are still users of old wallets who would have to upgrade through descriptor wallets if they wanted a later version
3152019-04-12T19:41:34 <jnewbery> provoostenator: definitely. No forced upgrades

3172019-04-12T19:42:12 <achow101> i agree with ryanofsky
3182019-04-12T19:42:25 <achow101> anyways, this is bikeshedding
3192019-04-12T19:42:32 <jnewbery> ?
3202019-04-12T19:42:51 <meshcollider> I think this is important for the approach
3212019-04-12T19:43:20 <provoostenator> What's more important I think is to decide if we want to support a hybrid with descriptors and regular stuff (I prefer not).
3222019-04-12T19:43:34 <achow101> provoostenator: definitely no
3232019-04-12T19:43:38 <meshcollider> No, we shouldnt
3242019-04-12T19:44:54 <provoostenator> Ok, so that can be supported both with versioning and with feature flags I think. We can revisit that later?
3252019-04-12T19:45:17 <provoostenator> Or is there something where this choice does matter more urgently?
3262019-04-12T19:45:29 <achow101> meshcollider: jnewbery: consider the case where we introduce descriptor wallets as a new optional version. Sometime later down the road, we introduce a new wallet version because a new field is introduced in the wallet that is inherently not backwards compatible so it needs a version bump to prevent old software from loading, e.g. several more wallet flags
3272019-04-12T19:45:44 <meshcollider> I think it just affects how to deal with transitioning tests
3282019-04-12T19:46:24 <achow101> in order for users to upgrade to that version with more wallet flags, they first have to upgrade to descriptors, which they may not want to. that new version provides new functionality that does not require descriptors but is still applicable to old wallets. now this needs to be reconciled, and that's rather difficult

3312019-04-12T19:46:37 <ryanofsky> yeah, i don't see why flags aren't just obviously better in every case. you can still prevent combinations of features, you are just forced to write down which combinations are possible
3322019-04-12T19:46:48 <jnewbery> achow101 are you arguing that this should be a flag?
3332019-04-12T19:47:04 <meshcollider> Flags alone dont prevent old nodes from trying to open though do they?
3342019-04-12T19:47:08 <achow101> jnewbery: yes. if it is going to be an optional feature, it should be a flag
3352019-04-12T19:47:23 <ryanofsky> meshcollider, mandatory flags do
3362019-04-12T19:47:49 <jnewbery> Of course it's an optional feature. We don't force people to upgrade!
3372019-04-12T19:48:02 <meshcollider> Ok yes I agree with making it a mandatory flag rather than version
3382019-04-12T19:48:28 <jnewbery> I'm fine with it being a flag. Like ryanofsky has said, you can do everything with flags that you can with versions (and more)
3392019-04-12T19:49:14 <jnewbery> As long as the valid combinations are all documented and enforced in one place
3402019-04-12T19:49:17 <provoostenator> A mandatory flag also means we can reduce complexity.
3412019-04-12T19:49:40 <provoostenator> Only supporting upgrades for basic cases.
3422019-04-12T19:49:51 <achow101> alright, i'll change the pr to use a flag, restore the tests, and drop the upgrading logic for now
3432019-04-12T19:50:02 <meshcollider> Just because its a flag doesn't mean we have to allow all possible combinations of flags

3742019-04-12T20:00:23 <gwillen> I expect that it is not eligible for backport, but it would be nice to see it in master
3752019-04-12T20:02:05 <jnewbery> I'm fine with adding it. It does make the high priority list a bit wallet-heavy
3762019-04-12T20:02:49 <meshcollider> The wallet is the only important thing anyway ;)
3772019-04-12T20:03:55 <gwillen> hah :D
3782019-04-12T20:24:08 <luke-jr> achow101: probably never?
3792019-04-12T20:25:01 <luke-jr> achow101: modern bdb is AGPL; so we'd need to modify our software to serve source code of whatever is running to peers
3802019-04-12T20:25:06 <luke-jr> which IMO is stupid
