@@ -99,3 +99,20 @@ After updating the Parachain runtime, a Parachain needs to wait a certain amount | |||||
The WASM blob update not only contains the Parachain runtime, but also the `validate_block` | ||||||
function provided by Cumulus. So, updating a Parachain runtime on the relay chain involves a | ||||||
complete update of the validation WASM blob. | ||||||
|
||||||
## Register Parachain | ||||||
|
||||||
To start a node and connect to a network the chain spec has to be passed. Chain spec is a configuration | ||||||
for a node to bootstrap itself, define extensions like rocksdb, setup the network, etc | ||||||
([ChainSpec trait](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/blob/4b7911607b48a5ca7ebf1d655f12d91cdd241866/client/chain-spec/src/lib.rs#L223)). | ||||||
For Collator nodes the spec additionally contains wasm runtime of a parachain and genesis config used | ||||||
to set an initial state of a chain and build a genesis block. The chain spec has two different formats, | ||||||
raw and human readable. Raw spec has genesis data encoded in hex format ([chain spec examples](https://github.com/paritytech/cumulus/tree/master/parachains/chain-specs)). | ||||||
|
||||||
Registering a new Parachain requires executing a register call on the Relay Chain. Genesis head (or genesis block) | ||||||
and validation code (or wasm runtime) are two parameters of that call that must be built from | ||||||
the same genesis information used to spin up the collators. Both are stored on the Relay Chain. | ||||||
The Genesis block is used as a parachain’s genesis block on the Relay Chain. And the validation code | ||||||

is used as a Parachain Validation Function (PVF) to validate all Proof-of-Verification | ||||||
(PoV) blocks sent by Collators. The parameters of the register call can be obtained from the chain spec | ||||||
with cumulus client commands, export-genesis-state and export-genesis-wasm. | ||||||
