System contract

The system contract tracks a variable (total_activated_stake) to determine the first moment when 15% of all stake has voted so that it can trigger full activation of the system's features. After activation occurs, this variable is no longer needed. In previous releases, this variable continued to be updated even though it no longer had a purpose or even a well-defined meaning after activation. Furthermore, checks within the code that enable full functionality still referred to this variable. Since manipulation of this variable could potentially have adverse effects on the operation of the system contract, this release prevents further updates to the variable after activation and avoids depending on its value in the logic of the code after activation (#398).

Dependencies

This release depends on eosio.cdt v1.6.x and eosio v1.8.x. To compile the contracts in this release, first build and install eosio.cdt v1.6.3 and eosio v1.8.6. The eosio.bios and eosio.system contracts in particular also require that the PREACTIVATE_FEATURE consensus protocol upgrade has been activated on the EOSIO blockchain before they can be deployed.
