Protocol Upgrade Voting
This release contains a protocol upgrade. Voting for upgrading to protocol version 64 will start on Monday 2024-03-11 18:00:00 UTC.

Managing Resharding

This protocol upgrade includes resharding of shard 3. Which means that after protocol upgrade we will have 5 shards. New shard split is defined by these border accounts vec!["aurora", "aurora-0", "kkuuue2akv_1630967379.near", "tge-lockup.sweat"]

Important points:

Resharding will happen in the epoch RIGHT AFTER protocol voting epoch (and RIGHT BEFORE actual protocol upgrade).
If your node fails to reshard before protocol upgrade, it will not be able to continue being a part of the chain. If that happens, you should restart from a Pagoda provided backup.
Resharding creates a database snapshot that is deleted right after resharding is finished.During resharding, though, you may notice progressive increase of data folder size (around 150GB).
To monitor resharding you can use metrics near_resharding_status, near_resharding_batch_size, and near_resharding_batch_prepare_time_bucket. You can read more here https://github.com/near/nearcore/blob/master/docs/architecture/how/resharding.md#monitoring.
If you observe problems with block production or resharding performance, you can adjust resharding throttling configuration. Read more here https://github.com/near/nearcore/blob/master/docs/architecture/how/resharding.md#monitoring.
RAM usage during resharding is around 8-10GB.
Full resharding doc can be found here https://github.com/near/nearcore/blob/master/docs/architecture/how/resharding.md.

Protocol Changes

Resharding v2 - new implementation for resharding and a new shard layout for production networks. near/nearcore#10303, NEP-0508
Restrict the creation of non-implicit top-level accounts that are longer than 32 bytes. Only the registrar account can create them. near/nearcore#9589
Adjust the number of block producers and chunk producers on testnet to facilitate testing of chunk-only producers near/nearcore#9563

Non-protocol Changes

Add prometheus metrics for the internal state of the doomslug. near/nearcore#9458
Fix EXPERIMENTAL_protocol_config to apply overrides from EpochConfig. near/nearcore#9692
Add config option tx_routing_height_horizon to configure how many chunk producers are notified about the tx. near/nearcore#10251

Known issues

[This item includes the mitigations] State snapshot compaction may cause stack overflow. To avoid this issue, make sure that fields store.state_snapshot_config.compaction_enabled and store.state_snapshot_compaction_enabled are set to false in config.
[This one does not] A bug in network tracing spans management may lead to stack overflow. This issue will be fixed in 1.37.1 release that we plan to make after the protocol upgrade.
