[PATCH v3] daemon: encrypted communication (version 3)

Oct 27 - Oct 27, 2015

  • In a communication between Rusty and Pierre, there is mention of handling unknown protobuf fields in a protocol.

The protocol includes the initial Authenticate packet. The handling of these unknown fields is based on whether they are odd or even numbered. Odd numbered fields are optional and backwards compatible, while even numbered fields are required and will result in an abort if received. Pierre is seeking clarification on this matter.
