- follow up locks and fix them
- chainManager: call SetQueued for parentErr future blocks, uncomment TD checks, unskip test
- make ErrIncorrectTD non-fatal to be forgiving to genuine mistaken nodes (temp) but demote them to guard against stuck best peers.
- add purging to bounded nodeCache (config nodeCacheSize)
- use nodeCache when creating blockpool entries and let non-best peers add blocks (performance boost)
- minor error in addError
- reduce idleBestPeerTimeout to 1 minute
- correct status counts and unskip status passing status test
- glogified logging
- reorg and simplify AddBlock
- introduce nodeCache
- TestPeerPromotionByTdOnBlock unskipped and passes
- move switchC/idleC channel creation around: solves deadlock (now respects the contract with section process: either can activate or complete at any one time)
- add peer switch channel arg to activateChain - no peer locking within
- proper locking in AddBlock - fixes deadlock issue
- comment out TD check and skip incorrect TD test again for hotfix
- blockpool moves to its own package
- uses errs pkg for its own coded errors
- publicly settable config of params (time intervals and batchsizes)
- test helpers in subpackage
- optional TD in blocks used now to update peers chain info
- major improvement in algorithm
- fix fragility and sync/parallelisation bugs
- implement status for reporting on sync status (peers/hashes/blocks etc)
- several tests added and further corner cases covered
