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
