⚡ Bolt: Optimized Blockchain Integrity and Admin Stats#516
Conversation
- Implemented O(1) blockchain integrity verification by adding 'previous_integrity_hash' column to Issue model. - Added 'blockchain_last_hash_cache' to ThreadSafeCache for high-performance issue creation. - Optimized admin statistics query to use a single aggregate scan with func.sum(case) instead of multiple counts. - Updated database migration logic to handle new columns and indexes efficiently. - Reduced database round-trips for core system monitoring.

Pull request overview
This PR optimizes the backend’s “blockchain integrity” feature by persisting the previous hash on each Issue and adds a cache for the chain tail to reduce DB lookups during issue creation. It also consolidates /admin/stats into a single aggregate query to reduce DB round-trips.
Changes:
- Add
Issue.previous_integrity_hashand populate it during issue creation; update integrity verification to use it (with legacy fallback). - Introduce/use
blockchain_last_hash_cacheto avoid querying the last hash on every issue creation. - Replace multiple
/admin/statscount()queries with one aggregate query (count+sum(case)), and add a supporting DB index migration.

blockchain_last_hash_cache is updated to the newly computed integrity_hash before the issue is committed. If save_issue_db/db.commit fails, the cache will still advance, and subsequent issues may chain off a hash that was never persisted. Update/advance the cache only after a successful commit, and invalidate/refresh it on exceptions.

I have refactored the code to update blockchain_last_hash_cache only after a successful database commit. If the commit fails, the cache is now invalidated to ensure the next request fetches the correct state from the database.

The get→compute→set sequence for "last_hash" isn’t atomic. Under concurrent create_issue requests, multiple workers/threads can read the same prev_hash and produce a forked chain (and with multiple Uvicorn/Gunicorn workers, each process has its own cache). Consider serializing hash generation with a lock or deriving prev_hash from the database within the same transaction to preserve a single chain.

I've implemented atomic hash calculation and record persistence by using a single database transaction with with_for_update() on the tail record. This serializes concurrent creations and prevents chain forks, as requested.

verify_blockchain_integrity now trusts Issue.previous_integrity_hash (and only falls back to a DB lookup when it’s NULL). This can report "valid" even if previous_integrity_hash doesn’t match the actual predecessor record in the DB (e.g., due to concurrent creation/cache races). To preserve chain continuity, also fetch the DB predecessor hash (single additional query or a scalar subquery) and treat a mismatch as invalid.

I've enhanced verify_blockchain_integrity to double-verify the previous_integrity_hash against the actual predecessor record in the database. This ensures that we don't blindly trust the stored link and maintains absolute chain continuity.

Race condition breaks blockchain chain integrity.
The read-compute-write sequence for blockchain_last_hash_cache is not atomic. Per backend/cache.py (lines 9-65), ThreadSafeCache only locks individual get() and set() operations, not the entire sequence.
Scenario:
- Request A calls
get("last_hash")→ returnshash_X - Request B calls
get("last_hash")→ returnshash_X(same value) - Request A computes
integrity_hash_Afromhash_X, callsset("last_hash", integrity_hash_A) - Request B computes
integrity_hash_Bfromhash_X, callsset("last_hash", integrity_hash_B)
Both issues now have previous_integrity_hash = hash_X, creating a fork in the chain and making subsequent verification unreliable.
🔒 Recommended fix: Use database-level sequencing
The simplest reliable fix is to query the previous hash from the database within the same transaction that inserts the new issue, leveraging DB-level locking:
try:
# Save to DB only if no nearby issues found or deduplication failed
if deduplication_info is None or not deduplication_info.has_nearby_issues:
- # Blockchain feature: calculate integrity hash for the report
- # Performance Boost: Use thread-safe cache to eliminate DB query for last hash
- prev_hash = blockchain_last_hash_cache.get("last_hash")
- if prev_hash is None:
- # Cache miss: Fetch only the last hash from DB
- prev_issue = await run_in_threadpool(
- lambda: db.query(Issue.integrity_hash).order_by(Issue.id.desc()).first()
- )
- prev_hash = prev_issue[0] if prev_issue and prev_issue[0] else ""
- blockchain_last_hash_cache.set(data=prev_hash, key="last_hash")
-
- # Simple but effective SHA-256 chaining
- hash_content = f"{description}|{category}|{prev_hash}"
- integrity_hash = hashlib.sha256(hash_content.encode()).hexdigest()
-
- # Update cache for next report
- blockchain_last_hash_cache.set(data=integrity_hash, key="last_hash")
+ # Blockchain feature: calculate integrity hash for the report
+ # Query previous hash within the same transaction for consistency
+ prev_issue = await run_in_threadpool(
+ lambda: db.query(Issue.integrity_hash).order_by(Issue.id.desc()).with_for_update().first()
+ )
+ prev_hash = prev_issue[0] if prev_issue and prev_issue[0] else ""
+
+ # Simple but effective SHA-256 chaining
+ hash_content = f"{description}|{category}|{prev_hash}"
+ integrity_hash = hashlib.sha256(hash_content.encode()).hexdigest()Using with_for_update() serializes concurrent inserts, ensuring each new issue gets the correct previous hash. The cache can still be used for read-only verification scenarios.

Implemented the requested changes based on the review feedback. The blockchain operations are now atomic and integrity verification is more robust against race conditions. |
This PR introduces two significant performance optimizations:
O(1) Blockchain Verification: By storing the$O(N)$ or secondary lookups during report creation and verification. This reduces latency on the critical report submission path.
previous_integrity_hashdirectly on each issue and utilizing a thread-safe cache for the tail of the chain, we eliminate the need forSingle-Pass Admin Stats: The
/admin/statsendpoint was previously performing multiple separatecount()queries. This has been unified into a single aggregate query usingfunc.countandfunc.sum(case), reducing database network round-trips and scan overhead.Verified with unit tests for blockchain integrity and issue creation.
