Aptos Improvement Proposals (AIPs)

Check out all of our AIPs and discussions here on GitHub.

• None included in this release

Aptos Blockchain

General

• Upgraded rust to version 1.78.0.

Consensus

• Small optimizations to consensus broadcast to: (i) prioritize distant peers first; (ii) parallelize message serialization more effectively.

Networking

• Small performance improvements for message deserialization at the networking layer.

Move

VM

• Updated type size calculation to account for all nodes in non-substituted types. Also introduced TypeBuilder struct to construct types with maximum depth and count.
• Added a procedural macro bytecode_spec so that inline specifications to the Move bytecode instructions can be defined in Rust.
• Added runtime environment outside of VM. The env can be used cached and possibly shared across VM instances.

Gas

• Fixed gas charging in crypto_algebra::serialize() API implementation.

Resolved Issues

• Upgrade Rust to v1.78.0

[Mainnet][Testnet] Aptos Node Release v1.15.2

What's Changed

• cherry-pick 56ca463 by @areshand in #13836
• [Bug] Network Health Checker. Fixes a infinite blocking call in Network Health Checker when attempting to disconnect from a peer that failed the Health check. The situation arises when a peer connection is blocked writing to a socket unable to process disconnection request from the Health Checker, while the Health Checker is waiting for peer connection termination acknowledgement. The fix also includes a timeout for writing to an outbound socket.
