      FRAME: Create `TransactionExtension` as a replacement for `SignedExtension` (#2280) · fd5f9292
      Gavin Wood authored
      Closes #2160
      
      First part of [Extrinsic
      Horizon](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2415
      
      )
      
      Introduces a new trait `TransactionExtension` to replace
      `SignedExtension`. Introduce the idea of transactions which obey the
      runtime's extensions and have according Extension data (né Extra data)
      yet do not have hard-coded signatures.
      
      Deprecate the terminology of "Unsigned" when used for
      transactions/extrinsics owing to there now being "proper" unsigned
      transactions which obey the extension framework and "old-style" unsigned
      which do not. Instead we have __*General*__ for the former and
      __*Bare*__ for the latter. (Ultimately, the latter will be phased out as
      a type of transaction, and Bare will only be used for Inherents.)
      
      Types of extrinsic are now therefore:
      - Bare (no hardcoded signature, no Extra data; used to be known as
      "Unsigned")
      - Bare transactions (deprecated): Gossiped, validated with
      `ValidateUnsigned` (deprecated) and the `_bare_compat` bits of
      `TransactionExtension` (deprecated).
        - Inherents: Not gossiped, validated with `ProvideInherent`.
      - Extended (Extra data): Gossiped, validated via `TransactionExtension`.
        - Signed transactions (with a hardcoded signature).
        - General transactions (without a hardcoded signature).
      
      `TransactionExtension` differs from `SignedExtension` because:
      - A signature on the underlying transaction may validly not be present.
      - It may alter the origin during validation.
      - `pre_dispatch` is renamed to `prepare` and need not contain the checks
      present in `validate`.
      - `validate` and `prepare` is passed an `Origin` rather than a
      `AccountId`.
      - `validate` may pass arbitrary information into `prepare` via a new
      user-specifiable type `Val`.
      - `AdditionalSigned`/`additional_signed` is renamed to
      `Implicit`/`implicit`. It is encoded *for the entire transaction* and
      passed in to each extension as a new argument to `validate`. This
      facilitates the ability of extensions to acts as underlying crypto.
      
      There is a new `DispatchTransaction` trait which contains only default
      function impls and is impl'ed for any `TransactionExtension` impler. It
      provides several utility functions which reduce some of the tedium from
      using `TransactionExtension` (indeed, none of its regular functions
      should now need to be called directly).
      
      Three transaction version discriminator ("versions") are now
      permissible:
      - 0b000000100: Bare (used to be called "Unsigned"): contains Signature
      or Extra (extension data). After bare transactions are no longer
      supported, this will strictly identify an Inherents only.
      - 0b100000100: Old-school "Signed" Transaction: contains Signature and
      Extra (extension data).
      - 0b010000100: New-school "General" Transaction: contains Extra
      (extension data), but no Signature.
      
      For the New-school General Transaction, it becomes trivial for authors
      to publish extensions to the mechanism for authorizing an Origin, e.g.
      through new kinds of key-signing schemes, ZK proofs, pallet state,
      mutations over pre-authenticated origins or any combination of the
      above.
      
      ## Code Migration
      
      ### NOW: Getting it to build
      
      Wrap your `SignedExtension`s in `AsTransactionExtension`. This should be
      accompanied by renaming your aggregate type in line with the new
      terminology. E.g. Before:
      
      ```rust
      /// The SignedExtension to the basic transaction logic.
      pub type SignedExtra = (
      	/* snip */
      	MySpecialSignedExtension,
      );
      /// Unchecked extrinsic type as expected by this runtime.
      pub type UncheckedExtrinsic =
      	generic::UncheckedExtrinsic<Address, RuntimeCall, Signature, SignedExtra>;
      ```
      
      After:
      
      ```rust
      /// The extension to the basic transaction logic.
      pub type TxExtension = (
      	/* snip */
      	AsTransactionExtension<MySpecialSignedExtension>,
      );
      /// Unchecked extrinsic type as expected by this runtime.
      pub type UncheckedExtrinsic =
      	generic::UncheckedExtrinsic<Address, RuntimeCall, Signature, TxExtension>;
      ```
      
      You'll also need to alter any transaction building logic to add a
      `.into()` to make the conversion happen. E.g. Before:
      
      ```rust
      fn construct_extrinsic(
      		/* snip */
      ) -> UncheckedExtrinsic {
      	let extra: SignedExtra = (
      		/* snip */
      		MySpecialSignedExtension::new(/* snip */),
      	);
      	let payload = SignedPayload::new(call.clone(), extra.clone()).unwrap();
      	let signature = payload.using_encoded(|e| sender.sign(e));
      	UncheckedExtrinsic::new_signed(
      		/* snip */
      		Signature::Sr25519(signature),
      		extra,
      	)
      }
      ```
      
      After:
      
      ```rust
      fn construct_extrinsic(
      		/* snip */
      ) -> UncheckedExtrinsic {
      	let tx_ext: TxExtension = (
      		/* snip */
      		MySpecialSignedExtension::new(/* snip */).into(),
      	);
      	let payload = SignedPayload::new(call.clone(), tx_ext.clone()).unwrap();
      	let signature = payload.using_encoded(|e| sender.sign(e));
      	UncheckedExtrinsic::new_signed(
      		/* snip */
      		Signature::Sr25519(signature),
      		tx_ext,
      	)
      }
      ```
      
      ### SOON: Migrating to `TransactionExtension`
      
      Most `SignedExtension`s can be trivially converted to become a
      `TransactionExtension`. There are a few things to know.
      
      - Instead of a single trait like `SignedExtension`, you should now
      implement two traits individually: `TransactionExtensionBase` and
      `TransactionExtension`.
      - Weights are now a thing and must be provided via the new function `fn
      weight`.
      
      #### `TransactionExtensionBase`
      
      This trait takes care of anything which is not dependent on types
      specific to your runtime, most notably `Call`.
      
      - `AdditionalSigned`/`additional_signed` is renamed to
      `Implicit`/`implicit`.
      - Weight must be returned by implementing the `weight` function. If your
      extension is associated with a pallet, you'll probably want to do this
      via the pallet's existing benchmarking infrastructure.
      
      #### `TransactionExtension`
      
      Generally:
      - `pre_dispatch` is now `prepare` and you *should not reexecute the
      `validate` functionality in there*!
      - You don't get an account ID any more; you get an origin instead. If
      you need to presume an account ID, then you can use the trait function
      `AsSystemOriginSigner::as_system_origin_signer`.
      - You get an additional ticket, similar to `Pre`, called `Val`. This
      defines data which is passed from `validate` into `prepare`. This is
      important since you should not be duplicating logic from `validate` to
      `prepare`, you need a way of passing your working from the former into
      the latter. This is it.
      - This trait takes two type parameters: `Call` and `Context`. `Call` is
      the runtime call type which used to be an associated type; you can just
      move it to become a type parameter for your trait impl. `Context` is not
      currently used and you can safely implement over it as an unbounded
      type.
      - There's no `AccountId` associated type any more. Just remove it.
      
      Regarding `validate`:
      - You get three new parameters in `validate`; all can be ignored when
      migrating from `SignedExtension`.
      - `validate` returns a tuple on success; the second item in the tuple is
      the new ticket type `Self::Val` which gets passed in to `prepare`. If
      you use any information extracted during `validate` (off-chain and
      on-chain, non-mutating) in `prepare` (on-chain, mutating) then you can
      pass it through with this. For the tuple's last item, just return the
      `origin` argument.
      
      Regarding `prepare`:
      - This is renamed from `pre_dispatch`, but there is one change:
      - FUNCTIONALITY TO VALIDATE THE TRANSACTION NEED NOT BE DUPLICATED FROM
      `validate`!!
      - (This is different to `SignedExtension` which was required to run the
      same checks in `pre_dispatch` as in `validate`.)
      
      Regarding `post_dispatch`:
      - Since there are no unsigned transactions handled by
      `TransactionExtension`, `Pre` is always defined, so the first parameter
      is `Self::Pre` rather than `Option<Self::Pre>`.
      
      If you make use of `SignedExtension::validate_unsigned` or
      `SignedExtension::pre_dispatch_unsigned`, then:
      - Just use the regular versions of these functions instead.
      - Have your logic execute in the case that the `origin` is `None`.
      - Ensure your transaction creation logic creates a General Transaction
      rather than a Bare Transaction; this means having to include all
      `TransactionExtension`s' data.
      - `ValidateUnsigned` can still be used (for now) if you need to be able
      to construct transactions which contain none of the extension data,
      however these will be phased out in stage 2 of the Transactions Horizon,
      so you should consider moving to an extension-centric design.
      
      ## TODO
      
      - [x] Introduce `CheckSignature` impl of `TransactionExtension` to
      ensure it's possible to have crypto be done wholly in a
      `TransactionExtension`.
      - [x] Deprecate `SignedExtension` and move all uses in codebase to
      `TransactionExtension`.
        - [x] `ChargeTransactionPayment`
        - [x] `DummyExtension`
        - [x] `ChargeAssetTxPayment` (asset-tx-payment)
        - [x] `ChargeAssetTxPayment` (asset-conversion-tx-payment)
        - [x] `CheckWeight`
        - [x] `CheckTxVersion`
        - [x] `CheckSpecVersion`
        - [x] `CheckNonce`
        - [x] `CheckNonZeroSender`
        - [x] `CheckMortality`
        - [x] `CheckGenesis`
        - [x] `CheckOnlySudoAccount`
        - [x] `WatchDummy`
        - [x] `PrevalidateAttests`
        - [x] `GenericSignedExtension`
        - [x] `SignedExtension` (chain-polkadot-bulletin)
        - [x] `RefundSignedExtensionAdapter`
      - [x] Implement `fn weight` across the board.
      - [ ] Go through all pre-existing extensions which assume an account
      signer and explicitly handle the possibility of another kind of origin.
      - [x] `CheckNonce` should probably succeed in the case of a non-account
      origin.
      - [x] `CheckNonZeroSender` should succeed in the case of a non-account
      origin.
      - [x] `ChargeTransactionPayment` and family should fail in the case of a
      non-account origin.
        - [ ] 
      - [x] Fix any broken tests.

      Add retry mechanics to `pallet-scheduler` (#3060) · 9346019d
      georgepisaltu authored
      
      
      Fixes #3014 
      
      This PR adds retry mechanics to `pallet-scheduler`, as described in the
      issue above.
      
      Users can now set a retry configuration for a task so that, in case its
      scheduled run fails, it will be retried after a number of blocks, for a
      specified number of times or until it succeeds.
      
      If a retried task runs successfully before running out of retries, its
      remaining retry counter will be reset to the initial value. If a retried
      task runs out of retries, it will be removed from the schedule.
      
      Tasks which need to be scheduled for a retry are still subject to weight
      metering and agenda space, same as a regular task. Periodic tasks will
      have their periodic schedule put on hold while the task is retrying.

      Branislav Kontur authored
      [frame] `#[pallet::composite_enum]` improved variant count handling + removed `pallet_balances`'s `MaxHolds` config (#2657)
      
      I started this investigation/issue based on @liamaharon question
      [here](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1801#discussion_r1410452499).
      
      ## Problem
      
      The `pallet_balances` integrity test should correctly detect that the
      runtime has correct distinct `HoldReasons` variant count. I assume the
      same situation exists for RuntimeFreezeReason.
      
      It is not a critical problem, if we set `MaxHolds` with a sufficiently
      large value, everything should be ok. However, in this case, the
      integrity_test check becomes less useful.
      
      **Situation for "any" runtime:**
      - `HoldReason` enums from different pallets:
      ```rust
              /// from pallet_nis
              #[pallet::composite_enum]
      	pub enum HoldReason {
      		NftReceipt,
      	}
      
              /// from pallet_preimage
              #[pallet::composite_enum]
      	pub enum HoldReason {
      		Preimage,
      	}
      
              // from pallet_state-trie-migration
              #[pallet::composite_enum]
      	pub enum HoldReason {
      		SlashForContinueMigrate,
      		SlashForMigrateCustomTop,
      		SlashForMigrateCustomChild,
      	}
      ```
      
      - generated `RuntimeHoldReason` enum looks like:
      ```rust
      pub enum RuntimeHoldReason {
      
          #[codec(index = 32u8)]
          Preimage(pallet_preimage::HoldReason),
      
          #[codec(index = 38u8)]
          Nis(pallet_nis::HoldReason),
      
          #[codec(index = 42u8)]
          StateTrieMigration(pallet_state_trie_migration::HoldReason),
      }
      ```
      
      - composite enum `RuntimeHoldReason` variant count is detected as `3`
      - we set `type MaxHolds = ConstU32<3>`
      - `pallet_balances::integrity_test` is ok with `3`(at least 3)
      
      However, the real problem can occur in a live runtime where some
      functionality might stop working. This is due to a total of 5 distinct
      hold reasons (for pallets with multi-instance support, it is even more),
      and not all of them can be used because of an incorrect `MaxHolds`,
      which is deemed acceptable according to the `integrity_test`:
        ```
        // pseudo-code - if we try to call all of these:
      
      T::Currency::hold(&pallet_nis::HoldReason::NftReceipt.into(),
      &nft_owner, deposit)?;
      T::Currency::hold(&pallet_preimage::HoldReason::Preimage.into(),
      &nft_owner, deposit)?;
      
      T::Currency::hold(&pallet_state_trie_migration::HoldReason::SlashForContinueMigrate.into(),
      &nft_owner, deposit)?;
      
        // With `type MaxHolds = ConstU32<3>` these two will fail
      
      T::Currency::hold(&pallet_state_trie_migration::HoldReason::SlashForMigrateCustomTop.into(),
      &nft_owner, deposit)?;
      
      T::Currency::hold(&pallet_state_trie_migration::HoldReason::SlashForMigrateCustomChild.into(),
      &nft_owner, deposit)?;
        ```  
      
      
      ## Solutions
      
      A macro `#[pallet::*]` expansion is extended of `VariantCount`
      implementation for the `#[pallet::composite_enum]` enum type. This
      expansion generates the `VariantCount` implementation for pallets'
      `HoldReason`, `FreezeReason`, `LockId`, and `SlashReason`. Enum variants
      must be plain enum values without fields to ensure a deterministic
      count.
      
      The composite runtime enum, `RuntimeHoldReason` and
      `RuntimeFreezeReason`, now sets `VariantCount::VARIANT_COUNT` as the sum
      of pallets' enum `VariantCount::VARIANT_COUNT`:
      ```rust
      #[frame_support::pallet(dev_mode)]
      mod module_single_instance {
      
      	#[pallet::composite_enum]
      	pub enum HoldReason {
      		ModuleSingleInstanceReason1,
      		ModuleSingleInstanceReason2,
      	}
      ...
      }
      
      #[frame_support::pallet(dev_mode)]
      mod module_multi_instance {
      
      	#[pallet::composite_enum]
      	pub enum HoldReason<I: 'static = ()> {
      		ModuleMultiInstanceReason1,
      		ModuleMultiInstanceReason2,
      		ModuleMultiInstanceReason3,
      	}
      ...
      }
      
      
      impl self::sp_api_hidden_includes_construct_runtime::hidden_include::traits::VariantCount
          for RuntimeHoldReason
      {
          const VARIANT_COUNT: u32 = 0
              + module_single_instance::HoldReason::VARIANT_COUNT
              + module_multi_instance::HoldReason::<module_multi_instance::Instance1>::VARIANT_COUNT
              + module_multi_instance::HoldReason::<module_multi_instance::Instance2>::VARIANT_COUNT
              + module_multi_instance::HoldReason::<module_multi_instance::Instance3>::VARIANT_COUNT;
      }
      ```
      
      In addition, `MaxHolds` is removed (as suggested
      [here](https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2657#discussion_r1443324573))
      from `pallet_balances`, and its `Holds` are now bounded to
      `RuntimeHoldReason::VARIANT_COUNT`. Therefore, there is no need to let
      the runtime specify `MaxHolds`.
      
      
      ## For reviewers
      
      Relevant changes can be found here:
      - `substrate/frame/support/procedural/src/lib.rs` 
      -  `substrate/frame/support/procedural/src/pallet/parse/composite.rs`
      -  `substrate/frame/support/procedural/src/pallet/expand/composite.rs`
      -
      `substrate/frame/support/procedural/src/construct_runtime/expand/composite_helper.rs`
      -
      `substrate/frame/support/procedural/src/construct_runtime/expand/hold_reason.rs`
      -
      `substrate/frame/support/procedural/src/construct_runtime/expand/freeze_reason.rs`
      - `substrate/frame/support/src/traits/misc.rs`
      
      And the rest of the files is just about removed `MaxHolds` from
      `pallet_balances`
      
      ## Next steps
      
      Do the same for `MaxFreezes`

      Add Authorize Upgrade Pattern to Frame System (#2682) · 280aa0b5
      joe petrowski authored
      Adds the `authorize_upgrade` -> `enact_authorized_upgrade` pattern to
      `frame-system`. This will be useful for upgrading bridged chains that
      are under the governance of Polkadot without passing entire runtime Wasm
      blobs over a bridge.
      
      Notes:
      
      - Changed `enact_authorized_upgrade` to `apply_authorized_upgrade`.
      Personal opinion, "apply" more accurately expresses what it's doing. Can
      change back if outvoted.
      - Remove `check_version` in favor of two extrinsics, so as to make
      _checked_ the default.
      - Left calls in `parachain-system` and marked as deprecated to prevent
      breaking the API. They just call into the `frame-system` functions.
      - Updated `frame-system` benchmarks to v2 syntax.

      Westend: Fellowship Treasury (#2532) · da40d97a
      Muharem Ismailov authored
      
      
      Treasury Pallet Instance for the Fellowship in Westend Collectives.
      
      In this update, we present a Treasury Pallet Instance that is under the
      control of the Fellowship body, with oversight from the Root and
      Treasurer origins. Here's how it is governed:
      - the Root origin have the authority to reject or approve spend
      proposals, with no amount limit for approvals.
      - the Treasurer origin have the authority to reject or approve spend
      proposals, with approval limits of up to 10,000,000 DOT.
      - Voice of all Fellows ranked at 3 or above can reject or approve spend
      proposals, with a maximum approval limit of 10,000 DOT.
      - Voice of Fellows ranked at 4 or above can also reject or approve spend
      proposals, with a maximum approval limit of 10,000,000 DOT.
      
      Additionally, we introduce the Asset Rate Pallet Instance to establish
      conversion rates from asset A to B. This is used to determine if a
      proposed spend amount involving a non-native asset is permissible by the
      commanding origin. The rates can be set up by the Root, Treasurer
      origins, or Voice of all Fellows.

      pallet-xcm: add new flexible `transfer_assets()` call/extrinsic (#2388) · e7651cf4
      Adrian Catangiu authored
      # Motivation (+testing)
      
      ### Enable easy `ForeignAssets` transfers using `pallet-xcm` 
      
      We had just previously added capabilities to teleport fees during
      reserve-based transfers, but what about reserve-transferring fees when
      needing to teleport some non-fee asset?
      
      This PR aligns everything under either explicit reserve-transfer,
      explicit teleport, or this new flexible `transfer_assets()` which can
      mix and match as needed with fewer artificial constraints imposed to the
      user.
      
      This will enable, for example, a (non-system) parachain to teleport
      their `ForeignAssets` assets to AssetHub while using DOT to pay fees.
      (the assets are teleported - as foreign assets should from their owner
      chain - while DOT used for fees can only be reserve-based transferred
      between said parachain and AssetHub).
      
      Added `xcm-emulator` tests for this scenario ^.
      
      # Description
      
      Reverts `(limited_)reserve_transfer_assets` to only allow reserve-based
      transfers for all `assets` including fees.
      
      Similarly `(limited_)teleport_assets` only allows teleports for all
      `assets` including fees.
          
      For complex combinations of asset transfers where assets and fees may
      have different reserves or different reserve/teleport trust
      configurations, users can use the newly added `transfer_assets()`
      extrinsic which is more flexible in allowing more complex scenarios.
      
      `assets` (excluding `fees`) must have same reserve location or otherwise
      be teleportable to `dest`.
      No limitations imposed on `fees`.
      
      - for local reserve: transfer assets to sovereign account of destination
      chain and forward a notification XCM to `dest` to mint and deposit
      reserve-based assets to `beneficiary`.
      - for destination reserve: burn local assets and forward a notification
      to `dest` chain to withdraw the reserve assets from this chain's
      sovereign account and deposit them to `beneficiary`.
      - for remote reserve: burn local assets, forward XCM to reserve chain to
      move reserves from this chain's SA to `dest` chain's SA, and forward
      another XCM to `dest` to mint and deposit reserve-based assets to
      `beneficiary`.
      - for teleports: burn local assets and forward XCM to `dest` chain to
      mint/teleport assets and deposit them to `beneficiary`.
      
      ## Review notes
      
      Only around 500 lines are prod code (see `pallet_xcm/src/lib.rs`), the
      rest of the PR is new tests and improving existing tests.
