AccumulateRewards credits the coinbase of the given block with the mining reward.

CalcDifficulty is the difficulty adjustment algorithm.

MakeCache generates a new ethash cache and optionally stores it to disk.

MakeDataset generates a new ethash dataset and optionally stores it to disk.

New creates a full sized ethash PoW scheme.

NewFakeDelayer creates a ethash consensus engine with a fake PoW scheme that accepts all blocks as valid, but delays verifications by some time, though they still have to conform to the Ethereum consensus rules.

NewFakeFailer creates a ethash consensus engine with a fake PoW scheme that accepts all blocks as valid apart from the single one specified, though they still have to conform to the Ethereum consensus rules.

NewFaker creates a ethash consensus engine with a fake PoW scheme that accepts all blocks' seal as valid, though they still have to conform to the Ethereum consensus rules.

NewFullFaker creates an ethash consensus engine with a full fake scheme that accepts all blocks as valid, without checking any consensus rules whatsoever.

NewShared creates a full sized ethash PoW shared between all requesters running in the same process.

NewTester creates a small sized ethash PoW scheme useful only for testing purposes.

SeedHash is the seed to use for generating a verification cache and the mining dataset.

Ethash is a consensus engine based on proot-of-work implementing the ethash algorithm.
