Whisper's expire and broadcast loops happen in two separate go routines. Whenever an envelope is being expired it's removed from the set of envelopes and it looses all information about the envelope, including the "known hash". After the envelope has been removed it can be re-accepted by a broadcasting peer putting back the envelope in the set of envelopes. Since the envelope broadcast loop is separate of the expire loop expired messages may be broadcast to other peer, resulting in messages **never** being dropped. This PR includes an expire check before adding new messages to the set of envelopes.

Automated development builds
The following builds are build automatically by our build servers after each push to the develop branch.
Building the source
For prerequisites and detailed build instructions please read the Installation Instructions on the wiki.
Building geth requires two external dependencies, Go and GMP. You can install them using your favourite package manager. Once the dependencies are installed, run
make geth
Executables
Go Ethereum comes with several wrappers/executables found in
the cmd directory:
| Command | |
|---|---|
geth |
Ethereum CLI (ethereum command line interface client) |
bootnode |
runs a bootstrap node for the Discovery Protocol |
ethtest |
test tool which runs with the tests suite: /path/to/test.json > ethtest --test BlockTests --stdin. |
evm |
is a generic Ethereum Virtual Machine: evm -code 60ff60ff -gas 10000 -price 0 -dump. See -h for a detailed description. |
disasm |
disassembles EVM code: `echo "6001" |
rlpdump |
prints RLP structures |
Command line options
geth can be configured via command line options, environment variables and config files.
To get the options available:
geth help
For further details on options, see the wiki
