- 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
- 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
- fix status chain map uses common.Hash as key
- add badPeers increment to IncorrectTD errors (forgotten)
- signal head info update to head section process even if parent hash is not in pool (inserted), so that idle timer can be set to nil
- suicideC -> peer.headInfoTimer
- quit -> peer.bestIdleTimer
- and they are properly set from within getBlockHashes and handleSection
- 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
