P2P message format

This page details the structure and layout of messages used by the Tezos P2P layer.

The elementary types used for message or header fields are documented in the Data_encoding module, for example:

• unsigned 8-bit integer

• unsigned 16-bit integer

• signed 32-bit integer

• signed 64-bit integer

Additionally, the type unsigned 30-bit integer is used to denote the subset of positive integers of type signed 31-bit integers.

Note

31-bit integers: The internal representation of integers in OCaml reserves one bit for GC tagging. The remaining bits encode a signed integer. For compatibility with 32-bit machines, we restrict these native integers to the 31-bit range.

N.t

A variable-length sequence of bytes encoding a Zarith natural number. Each byte has a running unary size bit: the most significant bit of each byte indicates whether this is the last byte in the sequence (0) or whether the sequence continues (1). Size bits ignored, the data is the binary representation of the number in little-endian order.
