Andrew Poelstra	313f73d5b2	When validation is waiting for parent chain daemon, "stall". ... Currently, if -validatepegin is given, and block validation can't proceed because the parent chain is not synced, we mark the block invalid and put it in a queue to be "revalidated" later. Unfortunately, marking a block invalid has downstream consequences, in particular causing descendant blocks to be marked invalid, which are not currently fixed by the queue. Instead, we'll use a different strategy: if the mainchain daemon isn't sufficiently synced to validate a block, we will "stall" connecting that block to the chain, and have ActivateBestChain simply keep the tip at the previous block until we're ready. We can still download and validate (partly) blocks past this point while we're waiting. They will be connected once the parent chain daemon catches up.	2021-09-13 22:10:09 +00:00
