WalletDB Migration to v3 #889

Closed nodech closed 1 week ago

nodech commented 6 months ago

Migration to WalletDB v3 is different from previous migrations. It does not try to reindex the old data into new layout, instead it drops most of it - allowing us to do heavier modifications. This migration removes all txdb mappings (except for blinds) and cleans up block entries received from the chain. This should trigger rescan from the genesis block.

Migration is separated from the actual txdb/walletdb changes in order to allow multiple PRs to modify the database and w/o it getting in the way. Migration needs to get merged last, before release of v7. This allows us to invalidate all commits between wdb v3 modifications and the migration. After migration there should no longer be any wdb modifications for wdb v3.

This PR currently tracks modifications:

Closing this. Proper migration is implemented in #888.
