Integritee Parachain

This is the repository to run Integritee as a parachain on Kusama and Rococo. It is forked from the Cumulus repository.

Bump Dependencies

1. Run these commands with the suitable polkadot version.

diener update --cumulus --branch polkadot-v0.9.xx
diener update --substrate --branch polkadot-v0.9.xx
diener update --polkadot --branch release-v0.9.xx

2. Search and replace integritee-network/ dependencies to point to new polkadot-v0.9.xx branch.
3. Search and replace orml dependencies to point to new polkadot-v0.9.xx branch.

Launch a local setup including a Relay Chain and a Parachain

Zombienet

1. Download zombienet from the releases in the zombienet repository.
2. Copy it to ~/.local/bin/
3. Launch it in your terminal

zombienet-linux-x64 spawn --provider native zombienet/rococo-local-with-integritee-and-shell.toml

Note: You can also set a chain-spec path to the zombienet config, but the config param is named chain_spec_path.

Manually launch a local Rococo Testnet

Follow the steps provided in https://docs.substrate.io/tutorials/v3/cumulus/start-relay/

But keep the following in mind:

• Our chain has a paraid of 2015 on Rococo and Kusama (see polkadot-parachains/src/command.rs#44-49)
• For testing on rococo-local use the chain spec integritee-rococo-local-dev
• More chain specs can be found in polkadot-parachains/src/command.rs

Runtime upgrade

Two runtimes are contained in this repository. First, the shell-runtime, which has been extended compared to the upstream shell-runtime. It has some additional modules including sudo to facilitate a runtime upgrade with the sudo upgrade method. Second, it runs with the same executor instance as the integritee-runtime, such that an eventual upgrade is simpler to perform, i.e., only the runtime needs to be upgraded whereas the client can remain the same. Hence, all modules revolving around aura have been included, which provide data the client needs.

Upgrade procedure

Prepare a local shell network and generate the integritee-runtime wasm blob, which contains the upgraded runtime to be executed after the runtime upgrade.

# spawn local setup (NOTE: the shell-runtime parachain id needs to be changed to match the integritee-runtime's.)
zombienet-linux-x64 spawn --provider native zombienet/rococo-local-with-shell.toml

# generate wasm blob
 ./target/release/integritee-collator export-genesis-wasm --chain integritee-rococo-local-dev > integritee-rococo-local-dev.wasm

After the parachain starts producing blocks, a runtime upgrade can be initiated via the polkadot-js/apps interface.

If successful, a parachainSystem.validationFunctionStored event is thrown followed by a parachainSystem.validationFunctionApplied event some blocks later. After this procedure, the Teerex module should be available in the extrinsics tab in polkadot-js/apps.

Caveats

• Don't forget to enable file upload if you perform drag and drop for the genesisHead and validationCode. If it is not enabled, Polkadot-js will interpret the path as a string and won't complain but the registration will fail.
• Don't forget to add the argument --chain integritee-rococo-local-dev for the custom chain config. This argument is omitted in the Cumulus Workshop.
• The relay chain and the collator need to be about equally recent. This might require frequent rebasing of this repository on the corresponding release branch.

Benchmark

The current weights have been benchmarked with the following reference hardware:

• Core(TM) i7-10875H
• 32GB of RAM
• NVMe SSD

The benchmarks are run with the following script:

./scripts/benchmark_all_pallets.sh

state migrations try-runtime
