Looking for things to hack on?

Cleanups

  • Remove our specific libsecp256k1 in secp256k1/ and use the installed one.

Minor improvements

  • Make json_get_params fail if unknown parameters are specified by user.
  • Print backtrace in log_crash
  • When unpacking a packet, reject any with an unknown odd-numbered field as per BOLT #2.
  • Limit total number of peers in new_peer, or at least in peer_connected_in.
  • logging: add IO logging for peers.
  • Add history RPC command which shows all prior commit txs.
  • Improve getpeers to show status of peers when connecting, DNS lookups etc.
  • Add pings to protocol
    • Timeout a peer if they don't respond in a given time (eg. 2 pings)

Testing:

  • Add more unit tests in bitcoin/test and daemon/test
  • Test more scenarios with daemon/test/test.sh, and split it up.
  • Implement compile-time crypto-free mode
    • Implement canned conversation files for fuzz testing (eg AFL).
  • Write canned input/output test cases for various conversations, and include them in a form suitable for other implementations to test.

Major improvements:

  • (MAJOR) Implement onion
    • (MAJOR) Implement failure message encryption

Happy hacking!
