Runtime

Types used within the runtime exclusively and pervasively.

Host Configuration

The internal-to-runtime configuration of the parachain host is kept in struct HostConfiguration. This is expected to be altered only by governance procedures or via migrations from the Polkadot-SDK codebase. The latest definition of HostConfiguration can be found in the project repo here. Each parameter has got a doc comment so for any details please refer to the code.

Some related parameters in HostConfiguration are grouped together so that they can be managed easily. These are:

• async_backing_params in struct AsyncBackingParams
• executor_params in struct ExecutorParams
• approval_voting_params in struct ApprovalVotingParams
• scheduler_params in struct SchedulerParams

Check the definitions of these structs for further details.

Configuration migrations

Modifying HostConfiguration requires a storage migration. These migrations are located in the migrations subfolder of Polkadot-SDK repo.

ParaInherentData

Inherent data passed to a runtime entry-point for the advancement of parachain consensus.

This contains 4 pieces of data:

1. Bitfields
2. BackedCandidates
3. MultiDisputeStatementSet
4. Header

#![allow(unused)]
fn main() {
struct ParaInherentData {
	bitfields: Bitfields,
	backed_candidates: BackedCandidates,
	dispute_statements: MultiDisputeStatementSet,
	parent_header: Header
}
}
