`zebrad` syncer hangs when there are no peers, despite network timeouts #1633

Closed teor2345 closed 3 years ago

teor2345 commented 3 years ago

Version

zebrad a merge of PRs #1620 and #1622, around 2021-01-22.

Platform

Linux ... 5.4.89 #1-NixOS SMP Tue Jan 12 19:16:25 UTC 2021 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Description

The zebrad syncer hangs when there are no peers, despite the timeouts on tip_network, sync::downloads.network, and sync::downloads.verifier.

I tried this:

Running zebrad on mainnet and testnet.

I expected to see this happen:

zebrad continues trying to sync, even if it has no peers.

Instead, this happened:

The ChainSync component stopped logging output, until a peer connected to the zebrad Zcash listener port, but then it went back to hanging after a few minutes.

Analysis

This bug is probably caused by using ready_and or poll_ready on the peer set, which doesn't become ready until peers are ready. I'm not sure if this is actually a bug - it might be correct behaviour.

This bug seems to be a more specific case of the network hangs in #1435. It could be caused by buffer misuse in #1593

Commands

This bug is caused by #1435, it will probably be fixed by #1709.

But we should add some logs so future hangs are easier to diagnose - see #1714.
