Since these types were written, we've gained an executable spec:
https://github.com/ethereum/execution-specs
This PR aligns some of the types we use with this spec to simplify
comparisons and cross-referencing.
Using a `distinct` type is a tradeoff between nim ergonomics, type
safety and the ability to work around nim quirks and stdlib weaknesses.
In particular, it allows us to overload common functions such as `hash`
with correct and performant versions as well as maintain control over
string conversions etc at the cost of a little bit of ceremony when
instantiating them.
Apart from distinct byte types, `Hash32`, is introduced in lieu of the
existing `Hash256`, again aligning this commonly used type with the spec
which picks bytes rather than bits in the name.
* Refactor p2pProtocol internals
* Attempt to fix rlp crash with Nim v2 (#658)
* Attempt to fix rlp crash with Nim v2
* Fix test_ecies for nim v2
* Reduce compiler warnings
* Resolve ambiquity in testutils
* Disable nim devel continue-on-error
Nim devel brach(1.7.1) introduce gc=orc as default mode.
Because the p2p protocol using unsafe pointer operations
for it's ProtocolInfo and using global variables scattered
around, the orc mistakenly(or maybe correctly) crash the protocol.
* Move NetworkId type to common eth_types
NetworkId is after all a common type and this way it avoid an
application that requires it to also import all devp2p related
network types.
RLP related calls are moved to eth_types_rlp, this means that p2p
protocols that send NetworkId over the wire need to import this
too. Or just common in general.
* Remove # in front of multiline comment end bracket
These seem to be interpreted wrongly by the GitHub code browser.
`eth_types` is being imported from many projects and ends up causing
long build times due to its extensive import lists - this PR starts
cleaning some of that up by moving the chain DB and RLP to their own
modules.
this PR also moves `keccakHash` to its own module and uses it in many
places.
The new sync code wants to start without waiting. We can `discard` the async
result but there is no need for a background task polling and running a timer
for no clear benefit.
