Description

On the 15 Mar 2020, around 9pm UTC the following param-change proposal was submitted:

{
  "title": "Rwd Change",
  "description": "This is tansaction to test a parameter-change for rewards.",
  "changes": [
    {
      "subspace": "distribution",
      "key": "baseproposerreward",
      "value": "0.999000000000000000"
    }
  ],
  "deposit": [
    {
      "denom": "uscrt",
      "amount": "10000000"
    }
  ]
}

At around 3am UTC of the following night the proposal got accepted, and as a result the network halted, with following error:

Mar 16 05:36:48 ip-172-31-44-28 enigmad[20612]: E[2020-03-16|05:36:48.402] Stopping peer for error                      module=p2p peer="Peer{MConn{149.248.55.89:60440} 842822b88cb5762ba99cee50a37156c6d0a6c452 in}" err="pong timeout"

When the vote passed, the distribution module parameters changed to:

community_tax: "0.020000000000000000"
base_proposer_reward: "0.999000000000000000"
bonus_proposer_reward: "0.040000000000000000"
withdraw_addr_enabled: true

The problem occurred because the sum of baseproposerreward and bonusproposerreward can't be grater than 1 i.e. 0.999 + 0.04 > 1. This results in miscalculations of the rewards and fees.
The cause is a bug in Cosmos SDK in the parameter value validation, causing the proposal to pass despite being invalid. More on that here: https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/5808

Additional Notes

Another invalid proposal was on voting period, and by itself would have caused the network to halt as well:

"changes": [
  {
    "subspace": "distribution",
    "key": "bonusproposerreward",
    "value": "\"0.999000000000000000\""
  }
]

Recovery Process

Logged in to the testnet bootstrap machine.
Exported state from the last "rounded" block height:

enigmad export --for-zero-height --height=170000 > state_export.json

Removed all references to proposal ids 4 and 5 in:

"gov":{
    "deposits":[...],
    "proposals":[...],
    "votes":[...],
    ...
}

Made sure the distribution parameters still make sense:

"distribution":{
    "params":{
            "base_proposer_reward":"0.010000000000000000",
            "bonus_proposer_reward":"0.040000000000000000",
            "community_tax":"0.020000000000000000",
            "withdraw_addr_enabled":true
    },
    ...
}

Erased the coins in possession of the gov ModuleAccount:

"auth":{
    "accounts":[
        {
            "type":"cosmos-sdk/ModuleAccount",
                "value":{
                  "coins": [
                    <subtracted amount here>
                  ]
                  "name":"gov"
                }
        }, ...
}, ...

"Refund" coins to the account that deposited to these proposals on the first place i.e. added to account's balance in:

"app_state":{
  "auth":{
     "accounts":[
        {
           "value":{
              "coins":[
                 {
                    "amount":"<added to this amount>"
                 }
              ]
           }
        }
     ]
  }
}

A problem occurred with staking, described at: https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/5818 Changed the following:

"distribution":{
  "delegator_starting_infos":[
    {
      ...,
      "starting_info":{
        "...,
        "stake":"999990000.000000000000000000"
      },
      ...
    },
    ...
  ],
  ...
}

To this:

"distribution":{
  "delegator_starting_infos":[
    {
      ...,
      "starting_info":{
        "...,
        "stake":"990000000.000000000000000000"
      },
      ...
    },
    ...
  ],
  ...
}

Then a problem occured with the compute module:

panic: create wasm contract failed: Wasm Error: Filesystem error: File exists (os error 17)

This one got fixed when deleted the .enigmad/.compute directory.

Reset state:

enigmad unsafe-reset-all

Restarted the node.
