    • Completely remove all dapps struct from rpc
    • Remove unused pub use
    • Remove dapp policy/permission func in ethcore
    • Remove all dapps settings from rpc
    • Fix rpc tests

    • Address grumbles
    • Address grumbles
    • Fix tests
  • Check if synced when using eth_getWork (#9193) (#9210)
    • Check if synced when using eth_getWork (#9193)
    • Don't use fn syncing
    • Fix identation
    • Fix typo
    • Don't check for warping
    • rpc: avoid calling queue_info twice on eth_getWork
    • Fix potential as_usize overflow when casting from U256 in miner (#9221)
    • Allow old blocks from peers with lower difficulty (#9226)
    • Previously we only allow downloading of old blocks if the peer difficulty was greater than our syncing difficulty. This change allows downloading of blocks from peers where the difficulty is greater then the last downloaded old block.
  • Update Dockerfile (#9242)
    • Update Dockerfile
    • fix Docker build
  • fix dockerfile paths: parity -> parity-ethereum (#9248)
  • Propagate transactions for next 4 blocks. (#9265)
    • Closes #9255
    • This PR also removes the limit of max 64 transactions per packet, currently we only attempt to prevent the packet size to go over 8MB. This will only be the case for super-large transactions or high-block-gas-limit chains.
    • Patching this is important only for chains that have blocks that can fit more than 4k transactions (over 86M block gas limit)
    • For mainnet, we should actually see a tiny bit faster propagation since instead of computing 4k pending set, we only need 4 * 8M / 21k = 1523 transactions.
  • Update tobalaba.json (#9313)
  • Fix load share (#9321)
    • fix(light_sync): calculate load_share properly

  • Light client Provide default nonce in transactions when it´s missing (#9370)
    • Provide default_nonce in tx`s when it´s missing
    • When nonce is missing in a EthTransaction will cause it to fall in these cases provide default_nonce value instead!

  • Better support for eth_getLogs in light mode (#9186)
    • Light client on-demand request for headers range.
    • Cache headers in HeaderWithAncestors response.
    • Also fulfills request locally if all headers are in cache.
    • LightFetch::logs fetches missing headers on demand.
    • LightFetch::logs limit the number of headers requested at a time.
    • LightFetch::logs refactor header fetching logic.
