Introduce ShortNodeID #3313

tsachiherman · 2024-08-20T15:57:49Z

Why this should be merged

This PR is the first step toward ACP-20.
The existing NodeID was renamed into ShortNodeID, and a new, backward compatible NodeID was added.
Given that the ACP-20 changes are expected to be massive, I'd like to merge this backward-compatible change
before moving with the rest of the changes.

How this works

For most of the places, the usages of NodeID would remain as is.
Places that need to retain the classic NodeID were modified to be using the ShortNodeID.
The change is expected to be in a single direction only. i.e. ShortNodeID can be converted into NodeID by calling it's NodeID() function. No conversion from NodeID to ShortNodeID should be needed.

How this was tested

Tested against existing unit tests.

ids/node_id.go

I think we should be removing ids.NodeIDLen entirely. Every usage of it right now seems like it will break in the future.
"vms/platformvm/txs".Validator#NodeID should be a ids.ShortNodeID because it is serialized.
- "vms/platformvm/txs/fee.intrinsicValidatorBandwidth" should be using ids.ShortNodeIDLen
- "vms/platformvm/txs/fee.IntrinsicRemoveSubnetValidatorTxComplexities" should be using ids.ShortNodeIDLen
"vms/platformvm/txs.RemoveSubnetValidatorTx".NodeID should be a ids.ShortNodeID because it is serialized.

validatorID, err := ids.ToShortNodeID(utils.RandomBytes(ids.NodeIDLen))

validatorID, err := ids.ToShortNodeID(utils.RandomBytes(ids.ShortNodeIDLen))

Why does this file use ids.ShortNodeID rather than keeping it generic as ids.NodeID?

marshalDiffKey and unmarshalDiffKey seem to make the assumption that ids.NodeID has the same length as ids.ShortNodeID. This doesn't seem safe in the long term

good point. let me address that.

Not for this PR - but we should move this file out into an idstest package.

created #3343 to track this.

I don't think we should be transforming the types here. I think the users of this util should be specifying the NodeID type they expect to have used.

Why change from using != to .Compare (here and below)?

given that the NodeID is now a struct, using a comparison method allow us to ensure we can retain the comparison functionality even if we were to add, let's say, a non-comparable variable to the struct ( i.e. pointer ).
I figured that since we already having a comparison method, we should use it instead of relying on a mix of comparison techniques.

If this diff is "forwards safe" I think we should be able to add an additional field (or somehow else change the serialized format of this struct) without breaking a ton of tests.

 	packer.PackLong(timestamp)
 	ip.GossipID = hashing.ComputeHash256Array(packer.Bytes)


This looks dubious. If ip.NodeID.Bytes() started returning 32 bytes, it seems like this may behave unexpectedly.

I need to look into this a bit more carefully.

in the context of this PR, I believe that this change is safe. The ip.NodeID is populated few lines above as NodeID: ids.ShortNodeIDFromCert(cert).NodeID(). Hence, guarantee that it's a 20 bytes slice.
Future PRs would need to update this logic, naturally.
