Problem
The account hash cache data file contains a header with the number of entries in the file. The count itself is a usize. Since we are writing this to disk, we annotate the struct with
repr(C)
, butusize
does not have a fixed binary size. If somehow we tried to mix a 32-bit and 64-bit system, the header's count would be interpreted wrong.Summary of Changes
Add a static assert that the size of the header is 8 bytes.
This is an easy fix to ensure binary compatibility is not broken, and doesn't require refactoring types more broadly (which can still be done in a subsequent PR).
