Protocol
Sui Protocol Version in this release: 106
#24690: 106 version bump. Address balances: account for storage cost of accumulator objects
#24676: 105 version bump. Move owned object locking from pre-consensus to post-consensus. This will prevent owned objects from getting locked until epoch change. Fastpath execution gets disabled along with this change as well.
Nodes (Validators and Full nodes)
#24742: Disable validator RPC handlers for signing transactions and submitting transactions with aggregated validator signatures. Transaction submission using Quorum Driver or similar logic will no longer work. Transaction Driver and its related validator RPC handlers are the only way to submit transaction to Sui now.
GraphQL
#24595: Partial error will be properly supported in GraphQL. Invalid fields will have error messages and valid fields will still be displayed normally
#24679: Add support for checks_enabled and do_gas_selection argument for query.simulateTransaction
#24681: Partial error will be properly supported in GraphQL. Invalid fields will have error messages and valid fields will still be displayed normally
CLI
#24508: Removes --verify-compatibility and adds --skip-verify-compatibility defaulting to checking locally for upgrade compatibility errors.
Indexing Framework
#24503: The indexer, ingestion service, and metrics service all now return a Service instead of a JoinHandle<()> when run. Use Service::main to wait for the service to exit cleanly or with an error, or respond to a termination signal with a graceful shutdown. Service also exposes wait_for_shutdown, join, and shutdown functions to customise various aspects of the shutdown process.
#24523: Fix pruning for concurrent pipelines when indexer is initialized with --first-checkpoint.
