Preliminary review — Codex only
The bounded codec is well tested, but three in-scope correctness gaps remain: MNHF input ordering is not canonicalized at the trust boundary, context-free MNHF and credit-pool invariants are omitted, and valid commitments for supported overridden LLMQ parameters cannot be decoded. These issues prevent the v3 format from meeting its stated canonical and chain-configuration requirements.

In `src/evo/snapshot.h`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.h:567-572: Reject noncanonical MNHF signal ordering
The decoder inserts signals directly into a `std::map`, which normalizes their order and rejects only duplicate keys. The same signal set can therefore be supplied in any permutation, accepted by `Unserialize()`, and reserialized in sorted order. This conflicts with the decoder's `require_canonical_order` contract and with the strict ordering checks applied to the other top-level collections, allowing multiple accepted wire representations for the same snapshot.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.h:488-499: Do not validate commitment sizes against static default LLMQ parameters
`SnapshotLLMQParams()` obtains the compile-time entry from `Consensus::available_llmqs`, and `ReadMinedQuorumCommitment()` requires both commitment bitsets to have exactly that entry's default `size`. However, `-llmqtestparams`, the related regtest overrides, and `-llmqdevnetparams` modify the effective size stored in `Params().GetLLMQ(type)`, which consensus commitment validation uses. A commitment produced under any nondefault supported size is therefore rejected by this decoder: a larger size exceeds the read bound, while a smaller size fails the exact-size comparison. Since this layer is intentionally context-free, it should enforce a format-level maximum and internal bitset consistency, then leave exact sizing to the later chain-aware validation using the effective chain parameters.
In `src/evo/snapshot.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:193-204: Validate credit-pool amounts and MNHF signal values
`Validate()` bounds only the MNHF map's cardinality and performs no semantic validation of the credit-pool amounts. A snapshot with a signal such as `(255, -1)`, a signal height above the snapshot height, or negative/out-of-range `locked`, `currentLimit`, and `latelyUnlocked` values currently passes validation and can receive a canonical snapshot hash. Consensus-produced signals always use bits below `VERSIONBITS_NUM_BITS` and heights between zero and the snapshot height. Credit-pool construction produces money-range nonnegative amounts with `currentLimit <= locked`; enforcing those properties here also prevents an untrusted seeded value from entering later signed credit-pool arithmetic.

Preliminary review — Codex only
The three blockers from the prior review are fixed at the current head: MNHF wire ordering is enforced, credit-pool and signal semantics are validated, and commitment bitsets use a context-free format ceiling. Two in-scope blockers remain in the new untrusted decoder: attacker-controlled proTxHash values can trigger quadratic HAMT collision handling, and successful deserialization into an existing snapshot can retain or append old collection contents. The commit stack also has two non-blocking history improvements.

In `src/evo/snapshot.h`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.h:235-236: Prevent adversarial HAMT collisions during snapshot decoding
The decoder permits 100,000 attacker-controlled proTxHash values and inserts each one through CDeterministicMNList::AddMN(). That list's ImmerHasher uses only ReadLE64(hash.begin()), so distinct, canonically ordered hashes can all share the same exposed 64-bit HAMT hash. Immer searches collision nodes linearly and allocates a new collision node containing copies of all prior entries on each persistent insertion; AddMN() also performs a lookup before insertion. A snapshot containing one large collision group therefore causes quadratic work before Validate() or the expected snapshot hash can reject it. The colliding unit-test fixtures and the new Immer sanitizer suppression confirm that this collision path is reachable. Enforce a format-level maximum number of entries sharing one ImmerHasher value before calling AddMN(), or build the list through an insertion strategy that does not expose this unsalted attacker-controlled hash.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.h:548-555: Clear snapshot collections before deserializing
Unserialize() reserves and appends to quorums, historical_mn_list_diffs, and quorum_modifiers, while MNHF signals are emplaced into the existing map. A successful decode therefore does not replace the state of an already-populated CEvoSnapshot. For example, decoding a valid snapshot with one signal and then decoding a valid signal-free snapshot into the same object leaves the old signal present and can still pass Validate(), so the resulting object no longer represents the consumed bytes. Re-decoding populated vectors instead appends old and new entries and can fail spuriously. Clear these collections before reading, matching the replacement semantics of the standard container deserializers and CDeterministicMNListDiff::UnserializeImpl().

Preliminary review — Codex only
The previous HAMT-collision and top-level replacement-semantics blockers are fixed at the current head. Three blockers remain: historical reconstruction multiplies the maximum MN list across the full history horizon, the CbTx cross-check omits the snapshot height, and direct per-quorum deserialization retains prior vector contents; two commit-history cleanups also remain valid suggestions.

In `src/evo/snapshot.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:194-214: Bound cumulative historical MN-list reconstruction work
The format independently permits a 100,000-entry base MN list and 192 historical entries under the current `Consensus::available_llmqs` table, but `EvoSnapshotMaxHistoricalMNOperations()` charges only additions, updates, and removals. A snapshot can therefore use zero-operation diffs while preserving the maximum-sized list for the entire history horizon. Every entry then builds and sorts `merged_prefixes`, `ValidateCanonicalMNInvariants()` traverses and sorts the list again, and `CanonicalMNListHash()` collects, sorts, and serializes it again. That produces roughly 57.6 million full-record visits, hundreds of millions of comparisons, and 19.2 million record serializations before the expected snapshot hash or the later missing/extra-history check can reject hostile input. Add a cumulative format-level budget based on reconstructed-list size or serialized bytes, or avoid repeatedly sorting and hashing the full list across independently bounded history entries.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:348-357: Cross-check the snapshot height against the CbTx
`VerifyEvoSnapshotCbTx()` checks the MN root, active-quorum root, and credit-pool balance but never compares `cbtx.nHeight` with the height encoded in `snapshot.mn_list`. A CbTx claiming a different height can therefore pass all pure cross-checks whenever those roots and the balance are unchanged. The unit test currently demonstrates the gap by leaving `CCbTx::nHeight` at its default zero while successfully verifying a snapshot whose MN-list height is 500. Bind these values here because the function is the context-free association between the decoded snapshot and its base CbTx.

`CQuorumSnapshotData::Unserialize()` reserves and appends to `active_commitments`, `safety_commitments`, and `rotation_snapshots` without replacing their existing contents. The top-level decoder avoids this only because it constructs a fresh local `CQuorumSnapshotData`; direct use of the public serializable type through `stream >> data` retains commitments and rotation state that were not present in the newly consumed bytes. This also allows the resulting vectors to exceed the incoming count bounds. Clear all three vectors before reading, matching the replacement semantics now enforced by `CEvoSnapshot::Unserialize()`.

On the two commit-history suggestions (fold the codec corrections into the feature commit; order the ReadFixedBitSet fix first): agreed on both, deliberately deferred until review settles. The separate fix commits exist so the review-round changes stay individually visible to human reviewers; squashing them mid-review would force re-reviewing the whole feature commit after every round. Before merge, the branch will be restructured so the serializer fix precedes the feature commit and every correction folds into it — permanent history will not retain the incomplete implementation. 🤖 Posted autonomously by Claude on behalf of pasta. |

Preliminary review — Codex only
The latest commits fix all three prior correctness blockers, but one new format-consistency blocker remains: object-level validation can approve and hash a historical diff chain whose serialized bytes exceed the decoder-only cumulative operation budget. The per-quorum replacement test also leaves two of the three cleared vectors unexercised, while the two commit-history cleanups are explicitly deferred until review settles.

In `src/evo/snapshot.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:248-252: Enforce the historical operation budget during object validation
`CEvoSnapshot::Validate()` enforces the history-count and reconstruction-record ceilings but never applies the cumulative add/update/remove ceiling enforced by `CEvoSnapshot::Unserialize()` at `src/evo/snapshot.h:602-606`. A programmatically constructed snapshot can therefore pass `Validate()` and `GetEvoSnapshotHash()`, yet fail when its canonical serialized bytes are decoded. For example, eight valid transitions alternating between removing and adding a 100,000-entry list consume 800,000 operations, which exceeds the current `192 * 4,096 = 786,432` decoder ceiling while remaining below the eight-entry history limit, the per-list 100,000-MN limit, and the 8,000,000-record reconstruction limit. Enforce the same cumulative operation budget during object validation, preferably through a shared helper used by both validation and decoding, and add a regression test proving that every validated/hashable snapshot round-trips through the decoder.

- [SUGGESTION] src/test/evo_snapshot_tests.cpp:770-785: Exercise replacement semantics for every quorum vector
The production decoder clears `active_commitments`, `safety_commitments`, and `rotation_snapshots`, but this regression test only proves replacement for `active_commitments`. Both serialized payloads leave the other two vectors empty, and `reused` also starts with them empty, so removing either corresponding `clear()` call would not fail the test. Seed all three vectors in `reused` before decoding an active-only payload, or decode a populated payload followed by one that empties all three, then assert that only the second payload's contents remain.

Preliminary review — Codex only
Five format-level issues remain: the decoder accepts noncanonical boolean and nested-map representations, and object validation still permits three states whose canonical serialization the decoder rejects. Both prior findings are fixed at this head; three commit-history cleanups also remain before the planned pre-merge restructuring.

In `src/evo/snapshot.h`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.h:573-575: Reject noncanonical rotation flag encodings
`rotation_enabled` is decoded through the generic boolean unserializer, which assigns any nonzero byte to `true`. A quorum section containing `0x02` is therefore accepted as if it contained canonical `0x01`, passes validation, and reserializes as `0x01`. This gives one decoded snapshot multiple accepted wire representations despite the codec's canonical-input contract. Decode a byte explicitly and reject values greater than one before assigning the boolean.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.h:238-239: Enforce canonical ordering inside reused MN serializers
Reusing `CDeterministicMN` deserialization leaves nested containers outside the snapshot's canonical-order checks. In particular, an extended MN state decodes `ExtNetInfo::m_data` through generic `UnserializeMap()`, which accepts entries in arbitrary order and silently normalizes them into a `std::map`; duplicate keys are likewise collapsed by insertion. Permuting otherwise valid purpose/value pairs is therefore accepted, while reserialization emits sorted bytes. This affects full base-list MNs, historical additions, and net-info state updates. The snapshot decoder must either validate the consumed per-object encoding against its canonical reencoding or use a snapshot-specific nested-map reader that requires strictly increasing, unique keys.
In `src/evo/snapshot.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:201-205: Reject negative base heights during object validation
`UnserializeCanonicalMNList()` rejects every negative MN-list height, but `EvoSnapshot::Validate()` does not enforce that same format invariant. A default `CDeterministicMNList` can receive a non-null hash through `SetBlockHash()` while retaining height `-1`; an otherwise empty snapshot containing it passes `Validate()` and `GetEvoSnapshotHash()`, but decoding its canonical bytes fails immediately. Reject the negative height during object validation so every validated and hashable snapshot can be decoded from its own encoding.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:92-105: Mirror the per-MN CompactSize budget during validation
The decoder wraps each full MN and MN-state diff in `SnapshotBoundedInput`, limiting cumulative nested CompactSize claims to `EVO_SNAPSHOT_MAX_MN_COMPACT_ITEMS`. Object validation checks payout count and network-info semantics but never applies the same cumulative budget. For example, an otherwise valid legacy MN with a script exceeding the 10,000-item budget can pass `Validate()` and receive an evo snapshot hash, while decoding its canonical bytes rejects the script's CompactSize claim. Apply the same per-object limit to full MNs and state diffs during validation, or otherwise verify that each object's canonical encoding fits the decoder budget.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:218-223: Enforce the credit-pool range-count ceiling during validation
Deserialization caps `credit_pool.indexes` at `EVO_SNAPSHOT_MAX_RANGES`, while object validation checks only the three credit-pool amounts. A programmatically constructed `CRangesSet` with more than 100,000 disjoint ranges can therefore pass `Validate()` and `GetEvoSnapshotHash()` and serialize successfully, but its canonical bytes are rejected by `UnserializeBounded()`. Expose the stored range count and enforce the same format ceiling here; the represented-value count is not equivalent because a large continuous interval is intentionally encoded as one range.
In `<commit:0765965>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:0765965>:1: Fold the codec correction commits into the feature
Commit `59bc2ea9429` introduces this new, unshipped codec, while `0765965f768`, `5aea44756dd`, `aea2e8c6217`, `59675661069`, `fdaff57c57b`, `8d4ac9ba5b8`, `8512a656905`, `776188b4273`, `1ea1e01d3d0`, `ec1ef2d5e24`, `1a90e7eb6b0`, `babf47ecec7`, `da25ab6fcc6`, and `7183a4dbc1a` subsequently repair or redesign behavior introduced by that feature commit. Leaving this sequence intact would preserve a known-incomplete implementation and the review iteration in permanent history. Fold the production corrections and their regression coverage into `59bc2ea9429`; dedicated test-only commits can remain separate where they test the completed implementation.
In `<commit:00228ce>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:00228ce>:1: Order the serializer fix before the feature that requires it
Commit `59bc2ea9429` adds tests that deserialize non-byte-aligned bitsets, and the immediately following `00228ce6311` fixes the resulting implicit-sign-change sanitizer report in the pre-existing `ReadFixedBitSet` helper. The serializer correction is a valid standalone change, but it should precede `59bc2ea9429` so the feature and its tests are sanitizer-clean from the commit where they are introduced.
In `<commit:ccf37fe>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:ccf37fe>:1: Fold the CRangesSet test naming cleanup into its test commit
Commit `ccf37fe90e2` only renames one test variable and clarifies its nearby comment for a case introduced earlier in this stack. Fold this fixup into `4488b643b4b`, and place the related full-domain regression from `5aea44756dd` with that test coverage during the planned history restructuring, rather than retaining a standalone review-nit commit.

Validate() bounded only the MNHF map's cardinality: out-of-money-range credit pool amounts, a currentLimit above locked, signal bits at or above VERSIONBITS_NUM_BITS, and signal heights outside [0, base height] all received a canonical snapshot hash. ConstructCreditPool guarantees 0 <= currentLimit <= locked in every deployment branch and consensus admits MNHF signals only for bits below VERSIONBITS_NUM_BITS at their mined height, so enforce exactly those invariants. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Unserialize() appended to quorums, historical_mn_list_diffs, and quorum_modifiers and merged into the existing MNHF signal map, so a successful decode into a reused object accumulated state the consumed bytes never contained and could still pass Validate(). Clear the collections up front. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
CDeterministicMNList's HAMT hashes proTxHash by its first 8 bytes, so a snapshot supplying up to 100,000 distinct, canonically ordered hashes sharing one 64-bit prefix made every AddMN copy the whole immer collision node: quadratic work and allocation from a single crafted snapshot. Real proTxHashes are uniform txids, where even one shared prefix among 100,000 has probability ~3e-10, so bound collision runs at 8. Enforced on the sorted base list during decoding (before the inserts), on the merged current-plus-additions prefix set before every historical diff application, and as an object-level invariant; the run detector sorts a plain vector so it cannot itself be driven into hash-collision buckets. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The context-free CbTx cross-check compared the MN root, active-quorum root, and credit-pool balance but never the height, so a CbTx claiming a different height passed whenever those values were unchanged; the test even verified successfully with nHeight left at zero against a height-500 list. Compare cbtx.nHeight with the snapshot list's height. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The top-level decoder always constructs a fresh local, but direct stream >> data into a reused CQuorumSnapshotData retained prior commitments and rotation entries and could exceed the incoming count bounds. Clear the three vectors up front, matching CEvoSnapshot::Unserialize. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The per-diff operation budget charges only additions, updates, and removals, so a few hundred bytes of zero-operation diff entries could drag a maximum-size list across the whole table-wide history horizon: every entry traverses, sorts, and canonically hashes the full reconstructed list (~19M record serializations from a small input). Charge a cumulative record budget up front in ReconstructHistoricalMNLists. The table-wide horizon sums types no single network enables together, so even a ceiling-sized list under a fully loaded real configuration stays well below half the budget. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
doc/developer-notes.md asks for UpperCamelCase class names; the C prefix is a legacy Bitcoin Core convention that new code should not adopt. These seven types are introduced by this series and have no external users yet, so renaming them now costs nothing. The enclosing namespace already reads evo::, which made the prefix redundant anyway.
…omparator Sorted() and IsStrictlySorted() carried the same if-constexpr chain with inverted predicates, and a catch-all else silently applied llmq_type ordering to any type without a branch. The two serializers then re-spelled the same orders a third and fourth time as local lambdas. Replace all of it with one IsCanonicallyBefore() overload per element type: the serializer, the decode-time check, and the object-level check now derive from a single definition, and a type with no overload fails to compile instead of being ordered by accident.
evo/snapshot.cpp was added to libdashkernel_la_SOURCES, but nothing reachable from the kernel library references evo/snapshot.h; the only consumer so far is the unit test, which links libbitcoin_node. Drop the kernel entry until the milestone that wires snapshot loading into chainstate code needs it there, and move the node and test entries into the alphabetical slots the surrounding lists keep.
Unserialize() charges every diff's additions, updates, and removals against a cumulative EvoSnapshotMaxHistoricalMNOperations() ceiling while streaming, but Validate() only bounded the history entry count and the reconstruction record total. A programmatically built snapshot could therefore pass Validate(), receive a canonical GetEvoSnapshotHash(), and still be undecodable from its own bytes - eight transitions alternating a full 100,000-entry list cost 800,000 operations against a 192 * 4,096 = 786,432 ceiling while staying under every limit Validate() did check. Both paths now derive the charge from EvoSnapshotHistoricalMNOperations(); the decoder keeps consuming it incrementally because it must bound work before the whole chain is in memory. The check runs before reconstruction so the budget is reported rather than a downstream chain error, which is what the new test pins.
The decoder clears active_commitments, safety_commitments, and rotation_snapshots, but the regression test only proved it for the first: both payloads left the other two empty and the reused object started with them empty, so removing either clear() would still have passed. Seed all three, decode a payload that populates only active_commitments, and assert the other two come back empty.
invalid_wrapped read as though a range whose end is 0 were itself invalid, which the max_value round-trips just above contradict: end == 0 encodes "runs through UINT64_MAX" and is valid, but only as the final range. Rename to wrapped_not_last and state the rule.
Allow canonical empty network info for inactive masternodes in snapshot validation and decoding. Reject unset internal IDs before asserting getters and reject BLS bytes normalized by the shared decoder. Keep credit-pool fields explicit in the versioned encoder. Add regression coverage for inactive legacy and extended records, historical additions and updates, malformed IDs, and commitment BLS encodings.
…ID hashing Apply historical MN updates in ApplyDiffForSnapshot() by releasing every updated MN's old unique properties before any new state claims them. A diff spanning many blocks can exchange an address or operator key between two surviving MNs, or hand an address from an updated MN to a new registration; sequential UpdateMN() rejected the first claimant as a duplicate even though both endpoint lists are valid. Materialize lazy BLS operator keys before the canonical reencoding check. The lazy wrapper re-emits undecodable bytes verbatim until first read and the empty key afterwards, so an unread malformed key could pass CheckCanonicalEncoding() and then change GetEvoSnapshotHash(). Hash CDeterministicMNListDiff::updatedMNs with StaticSaltedHasher so the attacker-chosen internal IDs the snapshot decoder inserts cannot be driven into one bucket for quadratic insertion within the operation budget.

Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
The current head fixes the previously identified hashing, lazy-BLS canonicalization, and atomic historical-diff application issues. Two independent historical-chain invariants remain unenforced: registration counters can regress, and a historical diff can self-reference its predecessor block hash; both permit malformed context-free snapshot state to pass reconstruction checks.

In `src/evo/snapshot.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:169-171: Require historical registration counters to be monotonic
`ReconstructHistoricalMNLists()` validates the descending heights and predecessor hash links, but it never checks that `entry.total_registered_count` is at least the current list's cumulative registration counter. `ApplyDiffForSnapshot()` then unconditionally assigns the supplied value at line 432. A malformed historical chain can therefore reduce the cumulative registration count while retaining valid internal IDs below the reduced value, pass the existing list invariants and canonical hash checks, and produce a snapshot whose cumulative registration state is inconsistent with its history. Reject a target counter below `current.GetTotalRegisteredCount()` before applying each diff.
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/snapshot.cpp:169-171: Reject self-referential historical MN-list diffs
The predecessor check permits `entry.block_hash == previous_hash` as long as the claimed height decreases. Because the base block hash is not inserted into `lists` before the loop, a one-entry historical diff can target the base block itself without triggering the later duplicate-target check. If its canonical list hash and associated quorum references are otherwise consistent, the malformed transition can pass context-free reconstruction. A historical transition must identify a distinct block from its predecessor; reject this self-reference before applying the diff.

Final validation — Phase 2 only (queue backlog)
The exact head addresses all previously identified correctness, canonical-encoding, and trust-boundary defects in the evo snapshot codec. Two commit-history improvements remain valid but are intentionally deferred according to the author’s stated pre-merge restructuring plan; no additional in-scope implementation defects were identified.

why diff is applying for snapshot? What is scenario, when diff should be applied for snapshot?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
pastaclaw says:
the base snapshot MN list should be a full list. ApplyDiffForSnapshot() is not used to construct that base list from a diff.
The extra diff chain exists only because the evo snapshot contains more than the current MN list. It also contains quorum/rotation state whose work_block_hash may refer to older blocks. To validate that state without accessing chainstate, the snapshot needs the corresponding historical MN-list roots. The current implementation represents those historical lists compactly as:
full MN list at base block
- historical diffs going backwards
- canonical hash for each reconstructed historical list
So the flow is:
snapshot.mn_list // full list at base height
historical_mn_list_diffs // reconstruct older lists referenced by quorum data
quorum/rotation entries // refer to those historical work-block listsApplyDiffForSnapshot() applies the historical diffs backwards from the full base list; it is not “apply a diff to obtain the snapshot itself.”
That said, the reviewer’s concern is valid from the API/design perspective. A type named ApplyDiffForSnapshot() makes it sound as if the snapshot’s primary list is diff-encoded. I’d clarify this in the code and likely rename it to something like:
ApplyHistoricalDiffForSnapshot(...)
or:
ApplySnapshotHistoricalDiff(...)
The surrounding comment should explicitly say:
The snapshot’s base MN list is serialized in full. This method is only for reconstructing older MN lists referenced by quorum and rotation data, without consulting chainstate or block-index data.
If the intended v3 format does not need to validate historical quorum/rotation state in the same snapshot, then the reviewer is right that the diff chain should be removed and every required list should either be serialized fully or omitted. But with the current stated format—where quorum entries reference historical work blocks—the diffs are a compact representation of additional required historical lists, not a replacement for the snapshot’s full base list
Consider having full snapshots here instead applying it incrementally, it will simplify implementation and avoid having workarounds such as mentioned in PR:
// A historical diff spans many blocks, so surviving MNs can have exchanged
// a unique property (an address, an operator key) between the endpoints,
// and a new registration can hold an address an updated MN gave up.
// Sequential UpdateMN() would reject the first claimant as a duplicate:
// release every updated MN's old properties before any new state claims.

Part of the AssumeUTXO M4 decomposition (#7579, now draft — see the series map there). For a Dash node, a UTXO snapshot alone is not enough to operate at the base block: the node also needs the deterministic MN list, quorum commitments, rotation state, credit pool, and MNHF signals that consensus at that height depends on. This PR defines the evo snapshot v3 format: the versioned interchange encoding for that state, its DoS-hardened decoder, and every validation invariant that needs no chain context. It deliberately contains no chain access and no lifecycle wiring — building a snapshot from chain state and validating one against the chain come in the next PR of the series;
dumptxoutset/load integration after that. Reviewing this PR is reviewing the wire format and its trust boundary, nothing else.What was done?
