//! # Constructing and Signing Extrinsics
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Extrinsics are payloads that are stored in blocks which are responsible for altering the state
|
||||
//! of a blockchain via the [_state transition
|
||||
//! function_][crate::reference_docs::blockchain_state_machines].
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Substrate is configurable enough that extrinsics can take any format. In practice, runtimes
|
||||
//! tend to use our [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`] type to represent extrinsics,
|
||||
//! because it's generic enough to cater for most (if not all) use cases. In Polkadot, this is
|
||||
//! configured [here](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/blob/94b2798b69ba6779764e20a50f056e48db78ebef/relay/polkadot/src/lib.rs#L1478)
|
||||
//! at the time of writing.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! What follows is a description of how extrinsics based on this
|
||||
//! [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`] type are encoded into bytes. Specifically, we are
|
||||
//! looking at how extrinsics with a format version of 4 are encoded. This version is itself a part
|
||||
//! of the payload, and if it changes, it indicates that something about the encoding may have
|
||||
//! changed.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! # Encoding an Extrinsic
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! At a high level, all extrinsics compatible with [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`]
|
||||
//! are formed from concatenating some details together, as in the following pseudo-code:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ```text
|
||||
//! extrinsic_bytes = concat(
|
||||
//! compact_encoded_length,
|
||||
//! version_and_maybe_signature,
|
||||
//! call_data
|
||||
//! )
|
||||
//! ```
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! For clarity, the actual implementation in Substrate looks like this:
|
||||
#![doc = docify::embed!("../../substrate/primitives/runtime/src/generic/unchecked_extrinsic.rs", unchecked_extrinsic_encode_impl)]
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Let's look at how each of these details is constructed:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ## compact_encoded_length
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! This is a [SCALE compact encoded][frame::deps::codec::Compact] integer which is equal to the
|
||||
//! length, in bytes, of the rest of the extrinsic details.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! To obtain this value, we must encode and concatenate together the rest of the extrinsic details
|
||||
//! first, and then obtain the byte length of these. We can then compact encode that length, and
|
||||
//! prepend it to the rest of the details.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ## version_and_maybe_signature
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! If the extrinsic is _unsigned_, then `version_and_maybe_signature` will be just one byte
|
||||
//! denoting the _transaction protocol version_, which is 4 (or `0b0000_0100`).
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! If the extrinsic is _signed_ (all extrinsics submitted from users must be signed), then
|
||||
//! `version_and_maybe_signature` is obtained by concatenating some details together, ie:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ```text
|
||||
//! version_and_maybe_signature = concat(
|
||||
//! version_and_signed,
|
||||
//! from_address,
|
||||
//! signature,
|
||||
//! signed_extensions_extra,
|
||||
//! )
|
||||
//! ```
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Each of the details to be concatenated together is explained below:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ### version_and_signed
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! This is one byte, equal to `0x84` or `0b1000_0100` (i.e. an upper 1 bit to denote that it is
|
||||
//! signed, and then the transaction version, 4, in the lower bits).
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ### from_address
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! This is the [SCALE encoded][frame::deps::codec] address of the sender of the extrinsic. The
|
||||
//! address is the first generic parameter of [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`], and so
|
||||
//! can vary from chain to chain.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! The address type used on the Polkadot relay chain is [`sp_runtime::MultiAddress<AccountId32>`],
|
||||
//! where `AccountId32` is defined [here][`sp_core::crypto::AccountId32`]. When constructing a
|
||||
//! signed extrinsic to be submitted to a Polkadot node, you'll always use the
|
||||
//! [`sp_runtime::MultiAddress::Id`] variant to wrap your `AccountId32`.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ### signature
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! This is the [SCALE encoded][frame::deps::codec] signature. The signature type is configured via
|
||||
//! the third generic parameter of [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`], which determines the
|
||||
//! shape of the signature and signing algorithm that should be used.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! The signature is obtained by signing the _signed payload_ bytes (see below on how this is
|
||||
//! constructed) using the private key associated with the address and correct algorithm.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! The signature type used on the Polkadot relay chain is [`sp_runtime::MultiSignature`]; the
|
||||
//! variants there are the types of signature that can be provided.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ### signed_extensions_extra
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! This is the concatenation of the [SCALE encoded][frame::deps::codec] bytes representing each of
|
||||
//! the [_signed extensions_][sp_runtime::traits::SignedExtension], and are configured by the
|
||||
//! fourth generic parameter of [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`]. Learn more about
|
||||
//! signed extensions [here][crate::reference_docs::signed_extensions].
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! When it comes to constructing an extrinsic, each signed extension has two things that we are
|
||||
//! interested in here:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! - The actual SCALE encoding of the signed extension type itself; this is what will form our
|
||||
//! `signed_extensions_extra` bytes.
|
||||
//! - An `AdditionalSigned` type. This is SCALE encoded into the `signed_extensions_additional` data
|
||||
//! of the _signed payload_ (see below).
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Either (or both) of these can encode to zero bytes.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Each chain configures the set of signed extensions that it uses in its runtime configuration.
|
||||
//! At the time of writing, Polkadot configures them
|
||||
//! [here](https://github.com/polkadot-fellows/runtimes/blob/1dc04eb954eadf8aadb5d83990b89662dbb5a074/relay/polkadot/src/lib.rs#L1432C25-L1432C25).
|
||||
//! Some of the common signed extensions are defined
|
||||
//! [here][frame::deps::frame_system#signed-extensions].
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Information about exactly which signed extensions are present on a chain and in what order is
|
||||
//! also a part of the metadata for the chain. For V15 metadata, it can be
|
||||
//! [found here][frame::deps::frame_support::__private::metadata::v15::ExtrinsicMetadata].
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ## call_data
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! This is the main payload of the extrinsic, which is used to determine how the chain's state is
|
||||
//! altered. This is defined by the second generic parameter of
|
||||
//! [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`].
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! A call can be anything that implements [`Encode`][frame::deps::codec::Encode]. In FRAME-based
|
||||
//! runtimes, a call is represented as an enum of enums, where the outer enum represents the FRAME
|
||||
//! pallet being called, and the inner enum represents the call being made within that pallet, and
|
||||
//! any arguments to it. Read more about the call enum
|
||||
//! [here][crate::reference_docs::frame_composite_enums].
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! FRAME `Call` enums are automatically generated, and end up looking something like this:
|
||||
#![doc = docify::embed!("./src/reference_docs/extrinsic_encoding.rs", call_data)]
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! In pseudo-code, this `Call` enum encodes equivalently to:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ```text
|
||||
//! call_data = concat(
|
||||
//! pallet_index,
|
||||
//! call_index,
|
||||
//! call_args
|
||||
//! )
|
||||
//! ```
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! - `pallet_index` is a single byte denoting the index of the pallet that we are calling into, and
|
||||
//! is what the tag of the outermost enum will encode to.
|
||||
//! - `call_index` is a single byte denoting the index of the call that we are making the pallet,
|
||||
//! and is what the tag of the inner enum will encode to.
|
||||
//! - `call_args` are the SCALE encoded bytes for each of the arguments that the call expects, and
|
||||
//! are typically provided as values to the inner enum.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Information about the pallets that exist for a chain (including their indexes), the calls
|
||||
//! available in each pallet (including their indexes), and the arguments required for each call
|
||||
//! can be found in the metadata for the chain. For V15 metadata, this information
|
||||
//! [is here][frame::deps::frame_support::__private::metadata::v15::PalletMetadata].
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! # The Signed Payload Format
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! All extrinsics submitted to a node from the outside world (also known as _transactions_) need to
|
||||
//! be _signed_. The data that needs to be signed for some extrinsic is called the _signed payload_,
|
||||
//! and its shape is described by the following pseudo-code:
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! ```text
|
||||
//! signed_payload = concat(
|
||||
//! call_data,
|
||||
//! signed_extensions_extra,
|
||||
//! signed_extensions_additional,
|
||||
//! )
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! if length(signed_payload) > 256 {
|
||||
//! signed_payload = blake2_256(signed_payload)
|
||||
//! }
|
||||
//! ```
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! The bytes representing `call_data` and `signed_extensions_extra` can be obtained as descibed
|
||||
//! above. `signed_extensions_additional` is constructed by SCALE encoding the
|
||||
//! ["additional signed" data][sp_runtime::traits::SignedExtension::AdditionalSigned] for each
|
||||
//! signed extension that the chain is using, in order.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Once we've concatenated those together, we hash the result if it's greater than 256 bytes in
|
||||
//! length using a Blake2 256bit hasher.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! The [`sp_runtime::generic::SignedPayload`] type takes care of assembling the correct payload
|
||||
//! for us, given `call_data` and a tuple of signed extensions.
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! # Example Encoding
|
||||
//!
|
||||
//! Using [`sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`], we can construct and encode an extrinsic
|
||||
//! as follows:
