FRAME: Meta Transaction (pallet based version) #4122

muharem · 2024-04-15T09:26:42Z

Meta transaction implementation based on a pallet's call and configurable via transaction extensions.

To see an example, refer to the sign_and_execute_meta_tx test case in substrate/frame/meta-tx/src/tests.rs file.

This implementation serves to demonstrate the concept and not production ready.

Based on: #3685
RFC: #4123
Alternative solution: #3712

TODOs:

benchmarks
more tests

we can use set the DispatchTransaction bound for Config::TxExtension and use it's impl for everything below. here, for the demonstration purpose, I'm not utilizing it.

DispatchTransaction is meant to work only for "legacy" extensions which use a () context. I believe the current impl is the right thing 👍 .

This whole crate is great, and should live in frame/examples if it remains in any form.

+		/// Public key type used for signature verification.
+		type PublicKey: IdentifyAccount<AccountId = Self::AccountId>;


unrelated to this PR: Kind of a pitty that we can't fetch PublicKey and Signature from AccountId. The reverse is possible. You can always go from Signature (eg. MultiSignature) to PublicKey and then AccountId via IdentifyAccount.

in this scope I do not even need a public key type, but have no other way to ensure the signature type implemented over the account id the system operates with.

Looks great 👍

+// TODO: The `MetaTx` type is similar to `sp_runtime::generic::UncheckedExtrinsic`. However,
+// `MetaTx` cannot replace generic::UncheckedExtrinsic because we need to box the call type,
+// given that `MetaTx` is used as an argument type for a call.


We could probably have this "destructured" in the extrinsic argument list if it looks funny because of the UncheckedExtrinsic similarity. I think it's fine.

+pub enum Proof<Address, Signature> {
+	Signed(Address, Signature),
+	// TODO `General` as in `sp_runtime::generic::Preamble`.
+}


I think we can branch off the UncheckedExtrinsic and Preamble logic a bit here and consider introducing a variant for any type of custom validation logic supported by the pallet. In TransactionExtensions, they would be individual extensions in the pipeline, one for each validation type, each wrapping a General transaction.

Here, we care only about the call and validation type, which is nice.

+			let pd_res = res.map(|_| ()).map_err(|e| e.error);
+
+			T::TxExtension::post_dispatch(pre, &info, &post_info, len, &pd_res, &ctx)


This would allow a graceful and harmless failure in cases like the one described here when a post_dispatch fail is critical.

+pub struct MetaTx<Address, Signature, Call, TxExtension> {
+	proof: Proof<Address, Signature>,
+	call: Box<Call>,
+	tx_ext: TxExtension,


Is there any reason why we can't get away with just a CheckNonce here? The other stuff will be checked when the agent submits the tx anyway, we just want the replay protection for Alice.

If we want to move off the extension approach completely, we could do the nonce check and inc without the extension even, just run the frame_system::Account mutation inside the extrinsic, but the signed payload would need to include the nonce. Maybe it's too complicated, just a thought.

Clippy CI check fails on the file that is not edited by this PR. I will wait for the #3685 to be updated from master, to update this branch, which should address the issue.

Currently version of this branch compiles, tests pass.

jasl · 2024-10-27T16:48:54Z

Kindly ping.
Since Token Extension has merged, can it push Meta Transaction forward?

muharem · 2024-10-28T11:54:45Z

@jasl I am working on it
