Storage Class Strategy +The `multisig_governance` contract stores all configuration state (admin address, target contract, version, proposal count) and in-flight proposal data (`PendingTransfer` structure under `KEY_PENDING`) in **Instance Storage**. + +In Soroban, instance storage has a specific Time-To-Live (TTL) that is checked and decremented on every ledger close. If instance storage is not accessed or explicitly bumped for a duration exceeding its TTL, it gets archived by the host. Once archived, any contract execution that tries to read or write instance storage (including admin verification via `read_admin`, loading target contract, or voting/approving) will fail. + +To prevent this: +- We introduce a centralized helper function `bump_instance_ttl` that calls `env.storage().instance().extend_ttl(...)` using pre-calculated safe bounds. +- This helper is integrated across all state-modifying entrypoints (write paths) and all read-only views (read paths). By executing a TTL extension on every contract invocation, we ensure that as long as there is active interest (either querying or writing), the contract state is kept alive automatically. + +--- + +## 2. TTL Rationale & Parameters + +The Soroban SDK functions require two parameters for TTL management: +1. `threshold`: The minimum number of ledgers remaining before a bump is triggered. +2. `bump_to`: The target ledger lifetime to extend to if the threshold is breached. + +We define these as: +```rust +const INSTANCE_TTL_THRESHOLD: u32 = 17280; // ~1 day (assuming 5-second ledgers) +const INSTANCE_TTL_BUMP: u32 = 518400; // ~30 days (assuming 5-second ledgers) +``` + +### Rationale +- **Quorum / Timelock Lifetime**: A proposal must remain pending for a minimum timelock delay of 24 hours (`MIN_TIMELOCK_SECONDS = 86_400`) and expires after a maximum of 7 days (`PROPOSAL_TTL_SECONDS = 604_800`). +- **Safety Window**: To prevent a proposal from being archived while in-flight (waiting for the timelock to expire or gathering approvals), the instance storage TTL must comfortably exceed the maximum potential proposal lifetime (7 days + 1 day delay = 8 days). +- **Threshold (1 Day)**: Setting the threshold to 17,280 ledgers (~1 day) ensures that any interaction within a day of potential expiry triggers the extension. +- **Bump (30 Days)**: Setting the bump to 518,400 ledgers (~30 days) guarantees that the contract instance remains active for a full month on any interaction. This safely accommodates the 7-day proposal TTL + timelock and provides a significant safety margin. + +--- + +## 3. Integration Points +The `bump_instance_ttl` helper is called in the following functions: +- `initialize`: Bumps TTL immediately upon contract creation. +- `version`: Bumps TTL on read. +- `upgrade`: Bumps TTL before upgrading contract code. +- `propose_admin_transfer`: Extends TTL on proposal creation. +- `approve_transfer`: Extends TTL on approval/voting. +- `finalize_admin_transfer`: Extends TTL before finalization. +- `cancel_admin_transfer`: Extends TTL on cancellation. +- `emergency_cancel_proposal`: Extends TTL on emergency actions. +- `expire_proposal`: Extends TTL when marking a proposal as expired. +- All view functions (`get_target`, `get_pending_transfer`, `get_pending`, `has_pending_transfer`, `get_approval_count`, `get_timelock_remaining`) and the private `read_admin` helper. + +--- + +## 4. Verification Test +In `test.rs`, we added the integration test `test_proposal_ttl_extension_keeps_proposal_active_and_finalizable`. +This test simulates the full lifecycle of a multi-sig admin transfer proposal: +1. Propose transfer with a 24-hour timelock delay. +2. Approve from the first signer. +3. Advance the ledger sequence number by `100,000` blocks (~5.8 days) and timestamp by `200,000` seconds. This simulates a long period of inactivity during the voting window. +4. Approve from the second signer (this reads and modifies instance storage successfully, showing it was not archived). +5. Advance beyond the 24-hour timelock. +6. Finalize the proposal successfully. + +This test demonstrates that the governance instance storage remains active, finalizeable, and resilient to ledger sequence advancement. diff --git a/multisig_governance/src/lib.rs b/multisig_governance/src/lib.rs index 889a3ac..3791b51 100644 --- a/multisig_governance/src/lib.rs +++ b/multisig_governance/src/lib.rs @@ -129,6 +129,15 @@ pub struct GovernanceContract;
