State Transitions

Client State Verification Functions​

Successful state verification by a solo machine light client will result in:

  • the sequence being incremented by 1.

Update By Header​

A successful update of a solo machine light client by a header will result in:

  • the public key being updated to the new public key provided by the header.
  • the diversifier being updated to the new diviersifier provided by the header.
  • the timestamp being updated to the new timestamp provided by the header.
  • the sequence being incremented by 1
  • the consensus state being updated (consensus state stores the public key, diversifier, and timestamp)

Update By Governance Proposal​

A successful update of a solo machine light client by a governance proposal will result in:

  • the client state being updated to the substitute client state
  • the consensus state being updated to the substitute consensus state (consensus state stores the public key, diversifier, and timestamp)
  • the frozen sequence being set to zero (client is unfrozen if it was previously frozen).

Upgrade​

Client udgrades are not supported for the solo machine light client. No state transition occurs.

Misbehaviour​

Successful misbehaviour processing of a solo machine light client will result in:

  • the frozen sequence being set to the sequence the misbehaviour occurred at
