The following network messages enable the long-living masternode quorum (LLMQ) features built in to Dash.

Distributed Key Generation

The following network messages enable the creation of long living masternode quorums (LLMQs) as described in DIP6.

With the exception of the qfcommit message, these messages are for intra-quorum communication only and are not propagated on the Dash network.

qcomplaint

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qcomplaint message is used to notify other members in the DKG process of any members that provided no contribution or an invalid secret key contribution. The notifications are divided into 2 fields:

badMembers - Sets a bit for each member that failed to provide a contribution
complaints - Sets a bit for each member that provided an invalid contribution

If a threshold number of quorum participants indicate a masternode didn't contribute, that masternode will be excluded from the quorum. Members that simply have a complaint against them are given an opportunity to respond (via a qjustify message) to attempt to prove to all participants that they did participate.

32	quorumHash	uint256	The quorum identifier
32	proTxHash	uint256	The ProRegTx hash of the complaining member

qgetdata

Added in protocol version 70219 of Dash Core

The qgetdata message is used to request DKG data from a masternode. The response to a qgetdata message is a qdata message. These messages allows an LLMQ member to recover its DKG data if needed with the help of other members of that LLMQ type.

32	quorumHash	uint256	The quorum identifier

qjustify

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qjustify message is used to respond to complaints. This provides a way for nodes that have been complained about to offer proof of correct behavior. If a valid justification is not provided, all other nodes mark it as a bad. If a valid justification is provided, the complaining node is marked as bad instead (since it submitted a bad complaint).

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
1	llmqType	uint8_t	The type of LLMQ
32	quorumHash	uint256	The quorum identifier
32	proTxHash	uint256	The ProRegTx hash of the complaining member

96	sig	byte[]	BLS signature, signed with the operator key of the contributing masternode Note: serialized using the basic BLS scheme after Dash 19.0 activation

An SKContribution consists of:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description

qfcommit

The qfcommit message is used to finalize a Long-Living Masternode Quorum setup by aggregating the information necessary to mine the on-chain QcTx special transaction. The message contains all the necessary information required to validate the long-living masternode quorum's signing results.

It is possible to receive multiple valid final commitments for the same DKG session. These should only differ in the number of signers, which can be ignored as long as there are at least quorumThreshold number of signers. The set of valid members for these final commitments should always be the same, as each member only creates a single premature commitment. This means that only one set of valid members (and thus only one quorum verification vector and quorum public key) can gain a majority. If the threshold is not reached, there will be no valid final commitment.

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint16_t	Version of the final commitment message
1	llmqType	uint8_t	The type of LLMQ
32	quorumHash	uint256	The quorum identifier
2	quorumIndex	uint16_t	Added in version 2 The quorum index
1-9	signersSize	compactSize uint	Bit size of the signers bitvector
(bitSize + 7) / 8	signers	byte[]	Bitset representing the aggregated signers of this final commitment
1-9	validMembersSize	compactSize uint	Bit size of the `validMembers` bitvector
(bitSize + 7) / 8	validMembers	byte[]	Bitset of valid members in this commitment
48	quorumPublicKey	BLSPubKey	The quorum public key Note: serialization varies based on `version`: * Version <3 - legacy BLS scheme * Version >= 3 - basic BLS scheme
32	quorumVvecHash	uint256	The hash of the quorum verification vector
96	quorumSig	byte[]	Recovered threshold signature Note: serialization varies based on `version`: * Version <3 - legacy BLS scheme * Version >= 3 - basic BLS scheme
96	sig	byte[]	Aggregated BLS signatures from all included commitments Note: serialization varies based on `version`: * Version <3 - legacy BLS scheme * Version >= 3 - basic BLS scheme

Signing Sessions

The following network messages enable the long living masternode quorum (LLMQ) message signing sessions described in DIP7.

With the exception of the qsendrecsigs message and the qsigrec message, these messages are for intra-quorum communication only and are not propagated on the Dash network.

qbsigs

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qbsigs message is used to send batched signature shares in response to a qgetsigs message.

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
Varies	batchCount	compactSize uint	Number of batched signature shares
Varies	msgs	CBatchedSigShares	Batches of signature shares

CBatchedSigShares:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
Varies	sessionId	varint	Signing session ID
Varies	shareCount	compactSize uint	Number of shares
shareCount * 98	sigShares	<uint16_t, CBLSLazySignature>	Index (2 bytes) and BLS Signature share (96 bytes)

The following annotated hexdump shows a qbsigs message. (The message header has been omitted.)

qgetsigs

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qgetsigs message is used to request signature shares. The response to a qgetsigs message is a qbsigs message.

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
Varies	count	compactSize uint	Number of signature shares requested
Varies	sessionId	varint	Signing session ID
Varies	invSize	compactSize uint	Inventory size
Varies	inv	CAutoBitSet	Quorum signature inventory

The following annotated hexdump shows a qgetsigs message. (The message header has been omitted.)

02 ......................................... Count: 2

Signature share request 1
| 80db21 ................................... Session ID
| 32 ....................................... Inventory size: 50
| 012900 ................................... Inventory

Signature share request 2
| 80db22 ................................... Session ID
| 32 ....................................... Inventory Size: 50
| 012900 ................................... Inventory

qsendrecsigs

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qsendrecsigs message is used to notify a peer to send plain LLMQ recovered signatures (inventory type MSG_QUORUM_RECOVERED_SIG). Otherwise the peer would only announce/send the higher level messages produced when a recovered signature is found (e.g. InstantSend islock messages or ChainLock clsig messages).

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
1	fSendRecSigs	bool	0 - Notify peer to not send plain LLMQ recovered signatures 1 - Notify peer to send plain LLMQ recovered signatures (default for Dash Core nodes)

The following annotated hexdump shows a qsendrecsigs message. (The message header has been omitted.)

01 ................................. Request recovered signatures: Enabled (1)

qsigrec

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qsigrec message is used to provide recovered signatures and related quorum details to nodes that have requested this information via the qsendrecsigs message.

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
1	llmqType	uint8_t	The type of LLMQ
32	quorumHash	uint256	The quorum hash
32	id	uint256	The signing request id
32	msgHash	uint256	The message hash
96	sig	byte[]	The final recovered BLS threshold signature Note: serialized using the basic BLS scheme after Dash 19.0 activation

More information can be found in the Recovered threshold signatures section of DIP7.

The following annotated hexdump shows a qsigrec message. (The message header has been omitted.)

Note: The following qsigrec message corresponds to the example islock message hexdump. The message hash below corresponds to the islock TXID field and the BLS signature matches the BLS signature of the islock example.

qsigsesann

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qsigsesann message is used to announce the sessionId for a signing session. The sessionId will be used for all P2P messages related to that session.

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
Varies	count	compactSize uint	Number of session announcements
Varies	sessionId	varint	Signing session ID (must be less than the maximum uint32_t value)
1	llmqType	uint8_t	The LLMQ type
32	quorumHash	uint256	The quorum identifier
32	id	uint256	The signing request id

Debugging

qwatch

Added in protocol version 70214 of Dash Core

The qwatch message tells the receiving peer to relay LLMQ DKG messages and Signing session messages (e.g., qcontrib).

This message is sent when a Dash Core node is started with the -watchquorums option enabled.

There is no payload in a qwatch message. See the message header section for an example of a message without a payload.
