filecoin-project/lotus v1.17.0-rc2

on GitHub

This is the second release candidate of the upcoming OPTIONAL release Lotus v1.17.0. This release also supports the Filecoin network v16 Skyr upgrade (FVM) with some small bug fixes, new features & improvements. Full changelog will be published upon final release.

Mainnet nv16 Skyr Upgrade

The network is scheduled to upgrade to nv16 at epoch 1960320, on July 6th at 2022-07-06T14:00:00Z. All node operators, including storage providers, must upgrade to this release (or a later release) before that time. Storage providers must update their daemons, miners, market and worker(s).

Your lotus node will switch from the Legacy VM (that depended on go-based specs-actors) to Filecoin Virtual Machine FVM (that uses Rust-based builtin-actors) atomically upon the upgrade.

The Skyr upgrade introduces the following FIPs, enhancements and bug fixes, delivered in built-actors v8 and ref-fvm v1.0.0:

• FIP-0030
• FIP-0031
• FIP-0032)
• FIP-0027
• Bug fix for the ProveReplicaUpdates method
• New proofs version for SnarkPack

New Features

• feat: worker: lotus-worker run --no-default (filecoin-project/lotus#8672)
  • Makes it very easy to spin up workers that make the compute tasks opt-in, instead of the default opt-out. Also makes it very easy to create storage-only workers.
• feat: sched: Per worker concurrent task count limits (filecoin-project/lotus#8725)
  • Set the maximum number of tasks running it parallel on workers by exporting env-variables: [short task type]_[sector size]_MAX_CONCURRENT=[limit].
• feat: sched: Finalize* move selectors (filecoin-project/lotus#8710)
  • Allows you to force all Finalize tasks to run on workers with local access to both long-term storage and the sealing path containing the sector.
• feat: sched: Add scheduler interfaces, configurable assigner (filecoin-project/lotus#8700)
  • Introduce a new simpler worker assigning logic which will attempt to assign tasks to as many workers as possible and ignore worker utilization.
• feat: bench: simple sealing operations commands (filecoin-project/lotus#8373)
  • Allows you to only test the performance of a single task. Read the documentation.
• feat: miner cli: sealing data-cid command (filecoin-project/lotus#8715)
  • Makes it possible to compute data CIDs on lotus workers.
• feat: precommits info (filecoin-project/lotus#8696)
  • Check the on-chain precommit info with the lotus-miner sectors precommits command.
• feat: dagstore: add dagstore register-shard command (filecoin-project/lotus#8645)
  • If you have broken indexes in your market’s datastore, you can try to recover it by using lotus-miner dagstore register-shard.
• feat: Implement cli command for compactPartitions (filecoin-project/lotus#8637)
  • Remove dead sectors from partitions and reduce the number of partitions used if possible with the lotus-miner sectors compact-partitionscommand.

Improvements

• feat: wdpost: Ignore faults in lotus-miner proving compute window-post (filecoin-project/lotus#8737)
• feat: cli: Nicer net stat (filecoin-project/lotus#8797)
