The transaction spammer from Kurtosis requests the nonce value of its
account based on 'pending' tag. As we lack that implementation, go with
the next best answer from the 'latest' tag. This does not include info
about transactions from the mempool that have not yet been executed.
* Aristo: Generalise alien/guest interface for piggiback on database
* Aristo: Code cosmetics
* CoreDb+Kvt: Update transaction API
why:
Use single addressable function `forkTx(backLevel: int)` as used
in `Aristo`. So `Kvt` can be synced simultaneously to `Aristo`.
also:
Refactored `kvt_tx.nim` in a similar fashion to `Aristo`.
* Kvt: Replace `LayerDelta` object by reference
why:
Will be needed when introducing filters
* Kvt: Remodel backend filter facility similar to `Aristo`
why:
This allows to operate on several KVT instances simultaneously.
* CoreDb+Kvt: Fix on-disk storage
why:
Overlooked name change: `stow()` => `persist()` for permanent storage
* Fix copyright headers
* Add retrieval content validation to state network.
* Complete state validation tests for retrieval content.
* Improve naming functions and parameters.
* Aristo: Rename journal related sources and functions
why:
Previously, the naming was hinged on the phrases `fifo`, `filter` etc.
which reflect the inner workings of cascaded filters. This was
unfortunate for reading/understanding the source code for actions where
the focus is the journal as a whole.
* Aristo: Fix buffer overflow (path length truncating error)
* Aristo: Tighten `hikeUp()` stop check, update error code
why:
Detect dangling vertex links. These are legit with `snap` sync
processing but not with regular processing.
* Aristo: Raise assert in regular mode `merge()` at a dangling link/edge
why:
With `snap` sync processing, partial trees are ok and can be amended.
Not so in regular mode.
Previously there was only a debug message when a non-legit dangling edge
was encountered.
* Aristo: Make sure that vertices are copied before modification
why:
Otherwise vertices from lower layers might also be modified
* Aristo: Fix relaxed mode for validity checker `check()`
* Remove cruft
* Aristo: Update API for transaction handling
details:
+ Split `aristo_tx.nim` into sub-modules
+ Split `forkWith()` into `findTx()` + `forkTx()`
+ Removed `forkTop()`, `forkBase()` (now superseded by new `forkTx()`)
* CoreDb+Aristo: Fix initialiser (missing methods)
- Add post Bellatrix Beacon block proof exporting to
eth_data_exporter
- Rework the Bellatrix Beacon block proof exports to us yaml
format
- Move some common code of the two different beacon block proofs
to beacon_chain_block_proof_common module
- Move + add to yaml utils to be usable not just for the tests but
also for eth data exporter
* Aristo: Allow to define/set `FilterID` for journal filter records
why:
After some changes, the `FilterID` is isomorphic to the `BlockNumber`
scalar (well, the first 2^64 entries of a `BlockNumber`.)
The needed change for `FilterID` is that the `FilterID(0)` value is
valid part of the `FilterID` scalar. A non-valid `FilterID` entry is
represented by `none(FilterID)`.
* Aristo: Split off function `persist()` as persistent version of `stow()`
why:
In production, `stow(persistent=false,..)` is currently unused. So,
using `persist()` rather than `stow(persistent=true,..)` improves
readability and is better to maintain.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Store block numbers in journal records
why:
This makes journal records searchable by block numbers
* Aristo: Rename some journal related functions
why:
The name *journal* is more appropriate to api functions than something
with *fifo* or *filter*.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Update last/oldest journal state retrieval
* CoreDb+Aristo: Register block number with state root in journal
why:
No need anymore for extra lookup table `stRootToBlockNum` which maps
a storage root -> block number.
* Aristo: Remove unused function `getFilUbe()` from api
* CoreDb: Remove now unused virtual table `stRootToBlockNum`
why:
Was used to map a state root to a block number. This functionality
is now embedded into the recovery journal backend.
* Turn of API tracking (will fail on `fluffy`)
* Aristo: Code cosmetics, e.g. update some CamelCase names
* CoreDb+Aristo: Provide oldest known state root implied
details:
The Aristo journal allows to recover earlier but not all state roots.
* Aristo: Fix journal backward index operator, e.g. `[^1]`
* Aristo: Fix journal updater
why:
The `fifosStore()` store function slightly misinterpreted the update
instructions when translation is to database `put()` functions. The
effect was that the journal was ever growing due to stale entries which
were never deleted.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Provide utils for purging stale data from the KVT
details:
See earlier patch, not all state roots are available. This patch
provides a mapping from some state root to a block number and allows to
remove all KVT data related to a particular block number
* Aristo+Kvt: Implement a clean up schedule for expired data in KVT
why:
For a single state ledger like `Aristo`, there is only a limited
backlog of states. So KVT data (i.e. headers etc.) are cleaned up
regularly
* Fix copyright year
* Remove references to CoreDb in Fluffy code.
* Add missing import.
* Remove coredb imports and use dynamic server port in tests.
* Fix formatting using nph.
* Aristo+Kvt: Better RocksDB profiling
why:
Providing more detailed information, mainly for `Aristo`
* Aristo: Renamed journal `stats()` to `capacity()`
why:
`Stats()` was a misnomer
* Aristo: Provide backend read caches for key and vertex IDs
why:
Dedicated LRU caching for particular types gives a throughput advantage.
The sizes of the LRU queues used for caching are currently constant
but might be adjusted at a later time.
* Fix copyright year
Use the same scheme as for the nimbus.guide.
Two differences however:
- Set the dark scheme as default, considering the new nimbus.team
website also has dark as default.
- Remove the orange/amber for the light scheme, considering the
light version of nimbus.team has no more orange.
* Code cosmetics
* Aristo+Kvt: Fix api wrappers
why:
Api setup killed the backend descriptor when backend mapping was
disabled.
* Aristo: Implement masked profiling entries
why:
Database backend should be listed but not counted in tally
* CoreDb: Simplify backend() methods
why:
DBMS backend access Was provided very early and over engineered. Now
there are only two backend machines, one for `Kvt` and the other one
for an `Mpt` available only via new API.
* CoreDb: Code cleanup regarding descriptor types
* CoreDb: Refactor/redefine `persistent()` methods
why:
There were `persistent()` methods for any type of caching storage
facilities `Kvt`, `Mpt`, `Phk`, and `Acc`. Now there is only a single
`persistent()` method storing all facilities in tandem (similar to
how transactions work.)
For non shared `Kvt` tables, there is now an extra storage method
`saveOffSite()`.
* CoreDb lingo update: `trie` becomes `column`
why:
Notion of a `trie` is pretty much hidden by the new `CoreDb` api.
Revealed are sort of database columns for accounts an storage data,
any of which have an internal state represented by a Keccack hash.
So a `trie` or `MPT` becomes a `column` and a `rootHash` becomes a
column state.
* Aristo: rename backend filed `filters` => `journal`
* Update full sync logging
details:
+ Disable eth handler noise while syncing
+ Log journal depth (if available)
* Fix copyright year
* Fix cruft and unwanted imports
* Update README
* Nimbus-main: replaced `PruneMode` options by `ChainDbMode` options
details:
For the legacy database, this changes the phrase
- `conf.pruneMode == PruneMode.Full` to the expression
+ `conf.chainDbMode == ChainDbMode.Prune`.
* Fix issues moaned about by NIM compiler
* Fix copyright year
* Aristo+RocksDB: Update backend drivers
why:
RocksDB update allows use some of the newly provided methods which
were previously implemented by using the very C backend (for the lack
of NIM methods.)
* Aristo+RocksDB: Simplify drivers wrapper
* Kvt: Update backend drivers and wrappers similar to `Aristo`
* Aristo+Kvm: Use column families for RocksDB
* Aristo+MemoryDB: Code cosmetics
* Aristo: Provide guest column family for export
why:
So `Kvt` can piggyback on `Aristo` so there avoiding to run a second
DBMS system in parallel.
* Kvt: Provide import mechanism for RoksDB guest column family
why:
So `Kvt` can piggyback on `Aristo` so there avoiding to run a second
DBMS system in parallel.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Run persistent `Kvt` DB piggybacked on `Aristo`
why:
Avoiding to run two DBMS systems in parallel.
* Fix copyright year
* Ditto
* Suspend `snap` sync tests
why:
Snap needs to be updated. While this is not done, tests are obsolete
and eat up memory resources only
* Suspend rocks DB timing tests
why:
Currently of no use for general test suite.
* Mothballed unused evm code for opportunistic DB handling
why:
Needs to be refactored anyway. Uses hard coded protocol dependencies.
* Update `eth` protocol configuration
why:
+ new upcoming version `eth68`
+ prepare for eth-multi protocol stack support
* Strip the `legacy_` prefix from eth66 compiler flag variable
why:
Being it is an oddity having `eth67_enabled`, `eth68_enabled`, and
`legacy_eth_66_enabled`.
* Providing eth68 stubs
* Fix copyright year
* Fix eth68 stub method name
* Kvt: Update API hooks
* Aristo: Generalised merging snap proofs, now for multiple state roots
why:
This accommodates pre-loading partial tries for unit tests
* Aristo: Update some unit tests
* CoreDb+Aristo: Re-factor tracer
why:
Was bonkers anyway. The main change is that the trace journal is now
kept in a way similar to a transaction layer so that it can predictably
interact with DB transactions.
* Ledger: Debugging helper
* Update tracer unit test applicable for `Aristo`
* Fix copyright year
* Disable `dump()` function as compile time default
why:
This needs to pull in the `rocks_db` library at compile time.
* Static link rocksdb into Nimbus.
* Link in additional compression libraries.
* Support static linking for MacOS.
* Add flag to support disabling rocksdb static linking.
* Static linking is disabled by default. Build nimbus with static linking using: make nimbus_rocksdb_static
* Update nim-rocksdb to latest.
