We were taking a lock on the txhashet, rewinding and taking a snapshot (saving leafset to disk for specific header hash). Then releasing the txhashet lock and the copying the files and building the zip.
I do not see exactly how this could cause a corrupt
txhashset.zip
but it does risk all kinds of weird edge cases where we sync the txhashset files to disk (say from another thread processing a new block) in the period between releasing the lock and creating the zip.This PR moves the
txhashset::zip_read()
call to inside the txhashet lock.Also added some logging to get an idea of when we create new zip files and when we reuse a previously created zip file.
