runtime-taurus-2025-jan-10

This is a runtime upgrade release for the consensus chain on Taurus testnet, spec version 11.

This release is built on top of the previous release (runtime-taurus-2025-jan-08) to add storage migration for the Operator structure change.

runtime-taurus-2025-jan-08

This is a runtime upgrade release for the consensus chain on Taurus testnet, spec version 10.
The main changes this release brings is:

• removal of history seeding functionality
• incorrect vote equivocation fix

taurus-2025-jan-07

Notable changes:

• Piece cache sync improvements in cluster setup
• --cache-group on cluster component can now be specified more than once to manage multiple cache groups (and allows cache groups to sync from each other)
• --cache-group can be optionally specified on cluster plotter to localize piece downloading
• Internal proving benchmark is removed and ConcurrentChunks is now the default; WholeSector can still be specified, but will be removed unless there are indications of it still being helpful
• Small fixes to object mapping handling
• Faster and more reliable piece downloading during Snap sync and sync from DSN
• Randomize replotting start to avoid load spikes when new segment is archived
• Improved cache logging
• Gateway piece retrieval fixes and minor API changes
• Silence annoying messages about missing plotter in cluster setup
• Fixes for object mapping creation
• Improved utilization of multiple GPUs in cluster setup

Build variants

There are two versions of x86-64 builds for Ubuntu and Windows:

• skylake: for Intel Skylake/AMD Ryzen processors and newer
• x86-64-v2: for older processors since ~2009 and some old VMs
• older processors/VMs are no longer supported by official releases, but can still be compiled manually if desired
• x86-64 container images are built for Skylake/AMD Ryzen processors and newer only

Farmer builds with -rocm suffix are for plotting with AMD GPUs.

mainnet-2024-nov-28

Notable changes:

• Fix for regression in the previous release causing new nodes to not start
• Otherwise identical to mainnet-2024-nov-27

runtime-taurus-2024-nov-27

This is a runtime upgrade release for the consensus chain on Taurus testnet.
The main change this release brings is removing the signing_key_proof_of_ownership when registering the operator.

mainnet-2024-nov-27

⚠️ Known issue: starting for the first time fails with error, install mainnet-2024-nov-18 and sync node first, then upgrade to this release. Existing users with synced node can upgrade safely.

Notable changes:

• Improve farm locking to avoid json file corruption when the same farm is specified more than once and resized at the same time
• Improve performance of downloading pieces from DSN
• Improve plotting performance in cluster, especially with GPUs, when some farms are slow to write sectors to disk
• Improvements to object mapping + subspace-gateway for retrieving objects from DSN
