* Make it possible to calculate the storage as often as you want So, until now each Substrate based blockchain has calculated the storage root once, at the end of the block. Now there is Frontier that wants to calculate some intermediate storage root. However this failed on block import. The problem with that was the extrinsics root. When building the block we stored `Default::default()` as extrinsics root, because yeah, we don't know the extrinsics root before finishing the block. At the end this extrinsics root was then calculated. But on block import we passed the already known extrinsics root. This was no problem, as we removed this value at the end of the block. However when you all the storage root in between, that changes the storage root between block building and block import. This pr changes this behavior. It removes the `ExtrinsicsRoot` storage entry and also doesn't pass it anymore to `System::initialize`. By doing it, we remove the difference in the storage and fix the storage root mismatch. * Fix bug with incorrectly calculating the extrinscs root * Review feedback
Executive Module
The Executive module acts as the orchestration layer for the runtime. It dispatches incoming extrinsic calls to the respective modules in the runtime.
Overview
The executive module is not a typical pallet providing functionality around a specific feature. It is a cross-cutting framework component for the FRAME. It works in conjunction with the FRAME System module to perform these cross-cutting functions.
The Executive module provides functions to:
- Check transaction validity.
- Initialize a block.
- Apply extrinsics.
- Execute a block.
- Finalize a block.
- Start an off-chain worker.
Implementations
The Executive module provides the following implementations:
ExecuteBlock: Trait that can be used to execute a block.Executive: Type that can be used to make the FRAME available from the runtime.
Usage
The default Substrate node template declares the Executive type in its library.
Example
Executive type declaration from the node template.
#
/// Executive: handles dispatch to the various modules.
pub type Executive = executive::Executive<Runtime, Block, Context, Runtime, AllModules>;
Custom OnRuntimeUpgrade logic
You can add custom logic that should be called in your runtime on a runtime upgrade. This is done by setting an optional generic parameter. The custom logic will be called before the on runtime upgrade logic of all modules is called.
#
struct CustomOnRuntimeUpgrade;
impl frame_support::traits::OnRuntimeUpgrade for CustomOnRuntimeUpgrade {
fn on_runtime_upgrade() -> frame_support::weights::Weight {
// Do whatever you want.
0
}
}
pub type Executive = executive::Executive<Runtime, Block, Context, Runtime, AllModules, CustomOnRuntimeUpgrade>;
