Conversation
blst (https://github.com/supranational/blst) is the BLS12-381 backend of the upcoming src/dashbls update. The package runs blst's own build.sh and installs libblst.a plus bindings/blst.h and blst_aux.h into the depends prefix. __BLST_PORTABLE__ selects runtime CPU dispatch so the build does not depend on the builder's CPU flags.
src/dashbls is no longer a configure sub-project. Its library, the vendored mimalloc secure allocator and its Catch2 test binary are built by the new src/Makefile.dashbls.include as libtool convenience libraries, the same way crc32c and leveldb are, and dashbls/runtest (including the relic reference vectors) is part of `make check`. The BLS12-381 backend blst is detected by configure and linked from depends (or the system). The library's PrivateKey::Serialize no longer takes a scheme flag, so CBLSWrapper dispatches on the implementation type; the secure allocator pool is sized for the largest blst object; the relic macro workarounds in bls/bls.h are gone.

run the index generator from src/dashbls.
In `@src/dashbls/binds/python/pythonbindings.cpp`:
- Line 504: Restore the Python bindings for G1Element multiplication with
PrivateKey by defining both __mul__ and the reverse operator, delegating to the
existing C++ G1Element and PrivateKey overloads so expressions such as g1 * sk1
and sk1 * g1 work again.
In `@src/dashbls/binds/python/samples/hd_keys.py`:
- Line 11: Update the module docstring near the HD key derivation sample to
distinguish EIP-2333 private-key derivation from the library’s public-key-based
unhardened derivation, identifying the latter as a library extension.
In `@src/dashbls/CMakeLists.txt`:
- Line 49: Update the Sodium conditional to use the existing BUILD_SODIUM option
defined earlier, ensuring -DBUILD_SODIUM=1 enables the intended branch instead
of checking the unrelated Sodium variable.
- Line 63: Update BLST_GIT_TAG in the CMake configuration to reference the
official blst v0.3.17 tag or its full release commit, matching the version
selected by the depends package.
In `@src/dashbls/include/dashbls/util.hpp`:
- Line 76: Update Util::md_hmac to allocate ipad with Util::SecAlloc<uint8_t>
and release it using Util::SecFree. Before every return, securely wipe the
sensitive _key and opad buffers with a non-elidable cleansing function,
preserving the existing HMAC behavior.
In `@src/dashbls/README.md`:
- Line 53: Update the dashbls installation instruction to avoid untrusted
candidate selection from multiple indexes: replace the extra-index-url command
with a direct, versioned, hash-pinned distribution URL for the intended
GitHub-hosted package, or otherwise use the protected PyPI project as specified.
In `@src/dashbls/src/CMakeLists.txt`:
- Around line 42-43: Update the blst header installation directives in the CMake
configuration to install the required binding headers from
${blst_SOURCE_DIR}/bindings, explicitly including blst.h, instead of referencing
the nonexistent source and binary include directories.
In `@src/dashbls/src/elements.cpp`:
- Around line 270-275: Define the missing G1Element::Copy() method in
elements.cpp beside G2Element::Copy(), matching the declared G1Element API and
existing copy behavior so callers link successfully.
- Around line 724-729: Update GTElement::Unity() to return the GTElement
produced by FromNative(blst_fp12_one()) rather than discarding that factory
result and returning the uninitialized local object. Preserve the Unity
factory’s existing API and ensure the Python-exposed GTElement.unity() receives
the initialized identity element.
In `@src/dashbls/src/test.cpp`:
- Around line 1712-1715: Replace the function-address source buffers in the
point_native initialization with a deterministic invalid representation or an
existing known-invalid test vector. Update the memcpy calls around
point_native.x, point_native.y, and point_native.z while preserving the test’s
intent to exercise invalid point data.
In `@src/dashbls/tools/fuzzgen.cpp`:
- Around line 80-82: Validate the numeric arguments in the fuzz generator before
deriving the seed or entering the loop: check conversion end pointers and range
errors for strtoull and strtol, reject invalid or negative values, and require
iters to be greater than zero. Update the argument-parsing flow around s0, s1,
and iters so invalid input exits with failure instead of silently performing no
iterations.

Add the missing G1Element::Copy() definition.
G1Element::Copy() is declared in src/dashbls/include/dashbls/elements.hpp:60, but src/dashbls/src/elements.cpp defines only G2Element::Copy(). A caller of G1Element::Copy() can fail at link time. Add the definition beside G2Element::Copy().

Return the factory result from GTElement::Unity().
GTElement::FromNative returns a new GTElement, but Unity() discards it and returns ele with an uninitialized r member. The Python binding exposes this as GTElement.unity(), so calls to it and comparisons using its result can produce incorrect behavior.

Do not read bytes from function addresses.
These memcpy calls treat executable function storage as an object buffer. This operation has undefined and platform-dependent behavior. A test can fault before it constructs the invalid point.
Initialize point_native with a deterministic invalid representation or derive it from a known invalid test vector.
Example deterministic construction
- // copy some probably invalid data into the point
- memcpy(&(point_native.x), (void*)memcpy, sizeof(point_native.x));
- memcpy(&(point_native.y), (void*)memset, sizeof(point_native.y));

Reject invalid numeric arguments.
strtoull and strtol conversion failures are not checked. For example, an invalid or negative iteration argument performs zero iterations and returns success. This result can make a validation job pass without fuzzing.

Final validation — Phase 2 only (queue backlog)
The blst migration contains five in-scope blocking defects: a typed signing-helper mismatch, broken standalone header installation, missing Python multiplication operators, an uninitialized GT identity result, and an unsafe documented multi-index installation command. Additional standalone-build and API integration issues affect workflow discovery, CMake options/version consistency, and the public G1 copy API. Two lower-priority valid findings were omitted to remain within the ten-finding budget.

In `src/dashbls/src/privatekey.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/dashbls/src/privatekey.cpp:303: Use the G2 signing primitive for G2 points
`pt` is a `blst_p2` populated by `blst_hash_to_g2`, but the code passes it to `blst_sign_pk_in_g1`. blst exposes distinct typed G1 and G2 signing helpers, so this call is incompatible with the object being signed and prevents compilation or produces the wrong signing operation. The normal Basic, Augmented, and PoP signing paths reach this function.
In `src/dashbls/src/CMakeLists.txt`:
- [BLOCKING] src/dashbls/src/CMakeLists.txt:42-43: Install the blst headers from the bindings directory
The fetched blst source provides `blst.h` and `blst_aux.h` under `bindings/`, not the `${blst_SOURCE_DIR}/include/` and `${blst_BINARY_DIR}/include/` directories named here. Consequently, the standalone CMake installation cannot install the declared directories and installed Dash BLS headers will lack the blst headers they include.
In `src/dashbls/binds/python/pythonbindings.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/dashbls/binds/python/pythonbindings.cpp:501-504: Restore Python multiplication of G1 elements by private keys
The migrated binding defines no `G1Element.__mul__` or `G1Element.__rmul__`, while `binds/python/test_unit.py` still evaluates both `g1 * sk` and `sk * g1`. Those expressions raise `TypeError`, so the Python binding tests and the corresponding public API behavior fail. Expose the existing C++ overloads through pybind11.
In `src/dashbls/src/elements.cpp`:
- [BLOCKING] src/dashbls/src/elements.cpp:724-729: Return the initialized GT identity element
`GTElement::Unity()` calls `FromNative(blst_fp12_one())` but discards the returned object, then returns the default-constructed local `ele`. The private constructor does not initialize `r`, so the Python-exposed identity element contains an uninitialized value and comparisons or arithmetic using it are invalid.
- [SUGGESTION] src/dashbls/src/elements.cpp:270: Define the declared G1Element::Copy method
`G1Element::Copy()` remains declared in `elements.hpp`, but this migration removed its definition. Any consumer that calls the public method will fail to link, while the analogous `G2Element::Copy()` remains defined. Restore the G1 definition beside the other conversion methods.
In `src/dashbls/README.md`:
- [BLOCKING] src/dashbls/README.md:52-54: Avoid untrusted extra-index package resolution
The documented command combines PyPI with the GitHub Pages index using `--extra-index-url`. pip treats both indexes as one candidate pool, so a future or malicious higher-version `dashbls` package on PyPI can be selected instead of the intended GitHub-hosted distribution and execute package installation code. Use a protected single index or a direct, versioned, hash-pinned distribution URL.
In `src/dashbls/CMakeLists.txt`:
- [SUGGESTION] src/dashbls/CMakeLists.txt:49: Honor the BUILD_SODIUM option
The file declares the cache option `BUILD_SODIUM`, but the conditional tests the unrelated `Sodium` variable. Setting `-DBUILD_SODIUM=1` therefore does not enable the advertised sodium dependency path.
- [SUGGESTION] src/dashbls/CMakeLists.txt:63: Use the same blst 0.3.17 revision in CMake and depends
The depends build selects the official `v0.3.17` release, whereas the standalone CMake path pins commit `a8cd361c9f671577aeab3f074098443af92a53fc`. These paths can therefore compile different blst sources under the same documented dependency version, weakening reproducibility and making the two supported build paths inconsistent.
In `src/dashbls/.github/workflows/build-binds.yml`:
- [SUGGESTION] src/dashbls/.github/workflows/build-binds.yml:23-42: Place binding workflows where GitHub Actions can discover them
GitHub Actions discovers repository workflows only under the repository-root `.github/workflows` directory. These orchestrator and reusable workflow files are under `src/dashbls/.github/workflows`, so they are not loaded and their local reusable-workflow references cannot run. The binding build, test, and publishing automation introduced by this PR is therefore inactive.

Blst library has 2x better performance compare to relic for bls signatures.
See dashpay/bls-signatures#132 for details.
Note for reviewers:
This PR could be merged as it without dashpay/bls-signatures#132 being merged so far as bls-signatures's the only consumer is Dash Core and further changes here will dissolve relevant files from bls-signatures to this dash core repo. Though, I expect review for dashpay/bls-signatures#132 in that repo rather than here.
What was done?
Migrated dash core repo to use blst library [over chia's framework v2]. Changes kept minimal as possible while everything still works.
There's futher PRs that do:
How Has This Been Tested?
Dash Core re-synced mainnet from genesis successfully.
There's extra validity tests that had been done inside bls-signatures.
By block-reconsider ~1000blocks measured performance impact for blocks validation:
Beside pure faster block validation time, it's expected lower CPU usage for nodes and especially masternodes; it's expected faster performance for instant-send locks, higher throughtput for instant-send locks, faster forming of chainlocks.
Breaking Changes
blst 0.3.17is a new dependency for Dash Core, no other changes in behaviour beside performance is expected.Please note that build process for bls-signatures is updated. It's no more has own 'config.status' and other autoconf's files, but directly integrated to dash core's build.
