Core db update storage root management for sub tries (#1964)
* Aristo: Re-phrase `LayerDelta` and `LayerFinal` as object references
why:
Avoids copying in some cases
* Fix copyright header
* Aristo: Verify `leafTie.root` function argument for `merge()` proc
why:
Zero root will lead to inconsistent DB entry
* Aristo: Update failure condition for hash labels compiler `hashify()`
why:
Node need not be rejected as long as links are on the schedule. In
that case, `redo[]` is to become `wff.base[]` at a later stage.
This amends an earlier fix, part of #1952 by also testing against
the target nodes of the `wff.base[]` sets.
* Aristo: Add storage root glue record to `hashify()` schedule
why:
An account leaf node might refer to a non-resolvable storage root ID.
Storage root node chains will end up at the storage root. So the link
`storage-root->account-leaf` needs an extra item in the schedule.
* Aristo: fix error code returned by `fetchPayload()`
details:
Final error code is implied by the error code form the `hikeUp()`
function.
* CoreDb: Discard `createOk` argument in API `getRoot()` function
why:
Not needed for the legacy DB. For the `Arsto` DB, a lazy approach is
implemented where a stprage root node is created on-the-fly.
* CoreDb: Prevent `$$` logging in some cases
why:
Logging the function `$$` is not useful when it is used for internal
use, i.e. retrieving an an error text for logging.
* CoreDb: Add `tryHashFn()` to API for pretty printing
why:
Pretty printing must not change the hashification status for the
`Aristo` DB. So there is an independent API wrapper for getting the
node hash which never updated the hashes.
* CoreDb: Discard `update` argument in API `hash()` function
why:
When calling the API function `hash()`, the latest state is always
wanted. For a version that uses the current state as-is without checking,
the function `tryHash()` was added to the backend.
* CoreDb: Update opaque vertex ID objects for the `Aristo` backend
why:
For `Aristo`, vID objects encapsulate a numeric `VertexID`
referencing a vertex (rather than a node hash as used on the
legacy backend.) For storage sub-tries, there might be no initial
vertex known when the descriptor is created. So opaque vertex ID
objects are supported without a valid `VertexID` which will be
initalised on-the-fly when the first item is merged.
* CoreDb: Add pretty printer for opaque vertex ID objects
* Cosmetics, printing profiling data
* CoreDb: Fix segfault in `Aristo` backend when creating MPT descriptor
why:
Missing initialisation error
* CoreDb: Allow MPT to inherit shared context on `Aristo` backend
why:
Creates descriptors with different storage roots for the same
shared `Aristo` DB descriptor.
* Cosmetics, update diagnostic message items for `Aristo` backend
* Fix Copyright year

Pre-allocate vids for branches (#2882)
Each branch node may have up to 16 sub-items - currently, these are
given VertexID based when they are first needed leading to a
mostly-random order of vertexid for each subitem.
Here, we pre-allocate all 16 vertex ids such that when a branch subitem
is filled, it already has a vertexid waiting for it. This brings several
important benefits:
* subitems are sorted and "close" in their id sequencing - this means
that when rocksdb stores them, they are likely to end up in the same
data block thus improving read efficiency
* because the ids are consequtive, we can store just the starting id and
a bitmap representing which subitems are in use - this reduces disk
space usage for branches allowing more of them fit into a single disk
read, further improving disk read and caching performance - disk usage
at block 18M is down from 84 to 78gb!
* the in-memory footprint of VertexRef reduced allowing more instances
to fit into caches and less memory to be used overall.
Because of the increased locality of reference, it turns out that we no
longer need to iterate over the entire database to efficiently generate
the hash key database because the normal computation is now faster -
this significantly benefits "live" chain processing as well where each
dirtied key must be accompanied by a read of all branch subitems next to
it - most of the performance benefit in this branch comes from this
locality-of-reference improvement.
On a sample resync, there's already ~20% improvement with later blocks
seeing increasing benefit (because the trie is deeper in later blocks
leading to more benefit from branch read perf improvements)

Speed up initial MPT root computation after import (#2788)
When `nimbus import` runs, we end up with a database without MPT roots
leading to long startup times the first time one is needed.
Computing the state root is slow because the on-disk order based on
VertexID sorting does not match the trie traversal order and therefore
makes lookups inefficent.
Here we introduce a helper that speeds up this computation by traversing
the trie in on-disk order and computing the trie hashes bottom up
instead - even though this leads to some redundant reads of nodes that
we cannot yet compute, it's still a net win as leaves and "bottom"
branches make up the majority of the database.
This PR also addresses a few other sources of inefficiency largely due
to the separation of AriKey and AriVtx into their own column families.
Each column family is its own LSM tree that produces hundreds of SST
filtes - with a limit of 512 open files, rocksdb must keep closing and
opening files which leads to expensive metadata reads during random
access.
When rocksdb makes a lookup, it has to read several layers of files for
each lookup. Ribbon filters to skip over files that don't have the
requested data but when these filters are not in memory, reading them is
slow - this happens in two cases: when opening a file and when the
filter has been evicted from the LRU cache. Addressing the open file
limit solves one source of inefficiency, but we must also increase the
block cache size to deal with this problem.
* rocksdb.max_open_files increased to 2048
* per-file size limits increased so that fewer files are created
* WAL size increased to avoid partial flushes which lead to small files
* rocksdb block cache increased
All these increases of course lead to increased memory usage, but at
least performance is acceptable - in the future, we'll need to explore
options such as joining AriVtx and AriKey and/or reducing the row count
(by grouping branch layers under a single vertexid).
With this PR, the mainnet state root can be computed in ~8 hours (down
from 2-3 days) - not great, but still better.
Further, we write all keys to the database, also those that are less
than 32 bytes - because the mpt path is part of the input, it is very
rare that we actually hit a key like this (about 200k such entries on
mainnet), so the code complexity is not worth the benefit really, in the
current database layout / design.

Store keys together with node data (#2849)
Currently, computed hash keys are stored in a separate column family
with respect to the MPT data they're generated from - this has several
disadvantages:
* A lot of space is wasted because the lookup key (`RootedVertexID`) is
repeated in both tables - this is 30% of the `AriKey` content!
* rocksdb must maintain in-memory bloom filters and LRU caches for said
keys, doubling its "minimal efficient cache size"
* An extra disk traversal must be made to check for existence of cached
hash key
* Doubles the amount of files on disk due to each column family being
its own set of files
Here, the two CFs are joined such that both key and data is stored in
`AriVtx`. This means:
* we save ~30% disk space on repeated lookup keys
* we save ~2gb of memory overhead that can be used to cache data instead
of indices
* we can skip storing hash keys for MPT leaf nodes - these are trivial
to compute and waste a lot of space - previously they had to present in
the `AriKey` CF to avoid having to look in two tables on the happy path.
* There is a small increase in write amplification because when a hash
value is updated for a branch node, we must write both key and branch
data - previously we would write only the key
* There's a small shift in CPU usage - instead of performing lookups in
the database, hashes for leaf nodes are (re)-computed on the fly
* We can return to slightly smaller on-disk SST files since there's
fewer of them, which should reduce disk traffic a bit
Internally, there are also other advantages:
* when clearing keys, we no longer have to store a zero hash in memory -
instead, we deduce staleness of the cached key from the presence of an
updated VertexRef - this saves ~1gb of mem overhead during import
* hash key cache becomes dedicated to branch keys since leaf keys are no
longer stored in memory, reducing churn
* key computation is a lot faster thanks to the skipped second disk
traversal - a key computation for mainnet can be completed in 11 hours
instead of ~2 days (!) thanks to better cache usage and less read
amplification - with additional improvements to the on-disk format, we
can probably get rid of the initial full traversal method of seeding the
key cache on first start after import
All in all, this PR reduces the size of a mainnet database from 160gb to
110gb and the peak memory footprint during import by ~1-2gb.

Store keys together with node data (#2849)
Currently, computed hash keys are stored in a separate column family
with respect to the MPT data they're generated from - this has several
disadvantages:
* A lot of space is wasted because the lookup key (`RootedVertexID`) is
repeated in both tables - this is 30% of the `AriKey` content!
* rocksdb must maintain in-memory bloom filters and LRU caches for said
keys, doubling its "minimal efficient cache size"
* An extra disk traversal must be made to check for existence of cached
hash key
* Doubles the amount of files on disk due to each column family being
its own set of files
Here, the two CFs are joined such that both key and data is stored in
`AriVtx`. This means:
* we save ~30% disk space on repeated lookup keys
* we save ~2gb of memory overhead that can be used to cache data instead
of indices
* we can skip storing hash keys for MPT leaf nodes - these are trivial
to compute and waste a lot of space - previously they had to present in
the `AriKey` CF to avoid having to look in two tables on the happy path.
* There is a small increase in write amplification because when a hash
value is updated for a branch node, we must write both key and branch
data - previously we would write only the key
* There's a small shift in CPU usage - instead of performing lookups in
the database, hashes for leaf nodes are (re)-computed on the fly
* We can return to slightly smaller on-disk SST files since there's
fewer of them, which should reduce disk traffic a bit
Internally, there are also other advantages:
* when clearing keys, we no longer have to store a zero hash in memory -
instead, we deduce staleness of the cached key from the presence of an
updated VertexRef - this saves ~1gb of mem overhead during import
* hash key cache becomes dedicated to branch keys since leaf keys are no
longer stored in memory, reducing churn
* key computation is a lot faster thanks to the skipped second disk
traversal - a key computation for mainnet can be completed in 11 hours
instead of ~2 days (!) thanks to better cache usage and less read
amplification - with additional improvements to the on-disk format, we
can probably get rid of the initial full traversal method of seeding the
key cache on first start after import
All in all, this PR reduces the size of a mainnet database from 160gb to
110gb and the peak memory footprint during import by ~1-2gb.

Speed up initial MPT root computation after import (#2788)
When `nimbus import` runs, we end up with a database without MPT roots
leading to long startup times the first time one is needed.
Computing the state root is slow because the on-disk order based on
VertexID sorting does not match the trie traversal order and therefore
makes lookups inefficent.
Here we introduce a helper that speeds up this computation by traversing
the trie in on-disk order and computing the trie hashes bottom up
instead - even though this leads to some redundant reads of nodes that
we cannot yet compute, it's still a net win as leaves and "bottom"
branches make up the majority of the database.
This PR also addresses a few other sources of inefficiency largely due
to the separation of AriKey and AriVtx into their own column families.
Each column family is its own LSM tree that produces hundreds of SST
filtes - with a limit of 512 open files, rocksdb must keep closing and
opening files which leads to expensive metadata reads during random
access.
When rocksdb makes a lookup, it has to read several layers of files for
each lookup. Ribbon filters to skip over files that don't have the
requested data but when these filters are not in memory, reading them is
slow - this happens in two cases: when opening a file and when the
filter has been evicted from the LRU cache. Addressing the open file
limit solves one source of inefficiency, but we must also increase the
block cache size to deal with this problem.
* rocksdb.max_open_files increased to 2048
* per-file size limits increased so that fewer files are created
* WAL size increased to avoid partial flushes which lead to small files
* rocksdb block cache increased
All these increases of course lead to increased memory usage, but at
least performance is acceptable - in the future, we'll need to explore
options such as joining AriVtx and AriKey and/or reducing the row count
(by grouping branch layers under a single vertexid).
With this PR, the mainnet state root can be computed in ~8 hours (down
from 2-3 days) - not great, but still better.
Further, we write all keys to the database, also those that are less
than 32 bytes - because the mpt path is part of the input, it is very
rare that we actually hit a key like this (about 200k such entries on
mainnet), so the code complexity is not worth the benefit really, in the
current database layout / design.

Pre-allocate vids for branches (#2882)
Each branch node may have up to 16 sub-items - currently, these are
given VertexID based when they are first needed leading to a
mostly-random order of vertexid for each subitem.
Here, we pre-allocate all 16 vertex ids such that when a branch subitem
is filled, it already has a vertexid waiting for it. This brings several
important benefits:
* subitems are sorted and "close" in their id sequencing - this means
that when rocksdb stores them, they are likely to end up in the same
data block thus improving read efficiency
* because the ids are consequtive, we can store just the starting id and
a bitmap representing which subitems are in use - this reduces disk
space usage for branches allowing more of them fit into a single disk
read, further improving disk read and caching performance - disk usage
at block 18M is down from 84 to 78gb!
* the in-memory footprint of VertexRef reduced allowing more instances
to fit into caches and less memory to be used overall.
Because of the increased locality of reference, it turns out that we no
longer need to iterate over the entire database to efficiently generate
the hash key database because the normal computation is now faster -
this significantly benefits "live" chain processing as well where each
dirtied key must be accompanied by a read of all branch subitems next to
it - most of the performance benefit in this branch comes from this
locality-of-reference improvement.
On a sample resync, there's already ~20% improvement with later blocks
seeing increasing benefit (because the trie is deeper in later blocks
leading to more benefit from branch read perf improvements)

the trie in on-disk order and computing the trie hashes bottom up
instead - even though this leads to some redundant reads of nodes that
we cannot yet compute, it's still a net win as leaves and "bottom"
branches make up the majority of the database.
This PR also addresses a few other sources of inefficiency largely due
to the separation of AriKey and AriVtx into their own column families.
Each column family is its own LSM tree that produces hundreds of SST
filtes - with a limit of 512 open files, rocksdb must keep closing and
opening files which leads to expensive metadata reads during random
access.
When rocksdb makes a lookup, it has to read several layers of files for
each lookup. Ribbon filters to skip over files that don't have the
requested data but when these filters are not in memory, reading them is
slow - this happens in two cases: when opening a file and when the
filter has been evicted from the LRU cache. Addressing the open file
limit solves one source of inefficiency, but we must also increase the
block cache size to deal with this problem.
* rocksdb.max_open_files increased to 2048
* per-file size limits increased so that fewer files are created
* WAL size increased to avoid partial flushes which lead to small files
* rocksdb block cache increased
All these increases of course lead to increased memory usage, but at
least performance is acceptable - in the future, we'll need to explore
options such as joining AriVtx and AriKey and/or reducing the row count
(by grouping branch layers under a single vertexid).
With this PR, the mainnet state root can be computed in ~8 hours (down
from 2-3 days) - not great, but still better.
Further, we write all keys to the database, also those that are less
than 32 bytes - because the mpt path is part of the input, it is very
rare that we actually hit a key like this (about 200k such entries on
mainnet), so the code complexity is not worth the benefit really, in the
current database layout / design.

Pre-allocate vids for branches (#2882)
Each branch node may have up to 16 sub-items - currently, these are
given VertexID based when they are first needed leading to a
mostly-random order of vertexid for each subitem.
Here, we pre-allocate all 16 vertex ids such that when a branch subitem
is filled, it already has a vertexid waiting for it. This brings several
important benefits:
* subitems are sorted and "close" in their id sequencing - this means
that when rocksdb stores them, they are likely to end up in the same
data block thus improving read efficiency
* because the ids are consequtive, we can store just the starting id and
a bitmap representing which subitems are in use - this reduces disk
space usage for branches allowing more of them fit into a single disk
read, further improving disk read and caching performance - disk usage
at block 18M is down from 84 to 78gb!
* the in-memory footprint of VertexRef reduced allowing more instances
to fit into caches and less memory to be used overall.
Because of the increased locality of reference, it turns out that we no
longer need to iterate over the entire database to efficiently generate
the hash key database because the normal computation is now faster -
this significantly benefits "live" chain processing as well where each
dirtied key must be accompanied by a read of all branch subitems next to
it - most of the performance benefit in this branch comes from this
locality-of-reference improvement.
On a sample resync, there's already ~20% improvement with later blocks
seeing increasing benefit (because the trie is deeper in later blocks
leading to more benefit from branch read perf improvements)

read, further improving disk read and caching performance - disk usage
at block 18M is down from 84 to 78gb!
* the in-memory footprint of VertexRef reduced allowing more instances
to fit into caches and less memory to be used overall.
Because of the increased locality of reference, it turns out that we no
longer need to iterate over the entire database to efficiently generate
the hash key database because the normal computation is now faster -
this significantly benefits "live" chain processing as well where each
dirtied key must be accompanied by a read of all branch subitems next to
it - most of the performance benefit in this branch comes from this
locality-of-reference improvement.
On a sample resync, there's already ~20% improvement with later blocks
seeing increasing benefit (because the trie is deeper in later blocks
leading to more benefit from branch read perf improvements)

Speed up initial MPT root computation after import (#2788)
When `nimbus import` runs, we end up with a database without MPT roots
leading to long startup times the first time one is needed.
Computing the state root is slow because the on-disk order based on
VertexID sorting does not match the trie traversal order and therefore
makes lookups inefficent.
Here we introduce a helper that speeds up this computation by traversing
the trie in on-disk order and computing the trie hashes bottom up
instead - even though this leads to some redundant reads of nodes that
we cannot yet compute, it's still a net win as leaves and "bottom"
branches make up the majority of the database.
This PR also addresses a few other sources of inefficiency largely due
to the separation of AriKey and AriVtx into their own column families.
Each column family is its own LSM tree that produces hundreds of SST
filtes - with a limit of 512 open files, rocksdb must keep closing and
opening files which leads to expensive metadata reads during random
access.
When rocksdb makes a lookup, it has to read several layers of files for
each lookup. Ribbon filters to skip over files that don't have the
requested data but when these filters are not in memory, reading them is
slow - this happens in two cases: when opening a file and when the
filter has been evicted from the LRU cache. Addressing the open file
limit solves one source of inefficiency, but we must also increase the
block cache size to deal with this problem.
* rocksdb.max_open_files increased to 2048
* per-file size limits increased so that fewer files are created
* WAL size increased to avoid partial flushes which lead to small files
* rocksdb block cache increased
All these increases of course lead to increased memory usage, but at
least performance is acceptable - in the future, we'll need to explore
options such as joining AriVtx and AriKey and/or reducing the row count
(by grouping branch layers under a single vertexid).
With this PR, the mainnet state root can be computed in ~8 hours (down
from 2-3 days) - not great, but still better.
Further, we write all keys to the database, also those that are less
than 32 bytes - because the mpt path is part of the input, it is very
rare that we actually hit a key like this (about 200k such entries on
mainnet), so the code complexity is not worth the benefit really, in the
current database layout / design.

Store keys together with node data (#2849)
Currently, computed hash keys are stored in a separate column family
with respect to the MPT data they're generated from - this has several
disadvantages:
* A lot of space is wasted because the lookup key (`RootedVertexID`) is
repeated in both tables - this is 30% of the `AriKey` content!
* rocksdb must maintain in-memory bloom filters and LRU caches for said
keys, doubling its "minimal efficient cache size"
* An extra disk traversal must be made to check for existence of cached
hash key
* Doubles the amount of files on disk due to each column family being
its own set of files
Here, the two CFs are joined such that both key and data is stored in
`AriVtx`. This means:
* we save ~30% disk space on repeated lookup keys
* we save ~2gb of memory overhead that can be used to cache data instead
of indices
* we can skip storing hash keys for MPT leaf nodes - these are trivial
to compute and waste a lot of space - previously they had to present in
the `AriKey` CF to avoid having to look in two tables on the happy path.
* There is a small increase in write amplification because when a hash
value is updated for a branch node, we must write both key and branch
data - previously we would write only the key
* There's a small shift in CPU usage - instead of performing lookups in
the database, hashes for leaf nodes are (re)-computed on the fly
* We can return to slightly smaller on-disk SST files since there's
fewer of them, which should reduce disk traffic a bit
Internally, there are also other advantages:
* when clearing keys, we no longer have to store a zero hash in memory -
instead, we deduce staleness of the cached key from the presence of an
updated VertexRef - this saves ~1gb of mem overhead during import
* hash key cache becomes dedicated to branch keys since leaf keys are no
longer stored in memory, reducing churn
* key computation is a lot faster thanks to the skipped second disk
traversal - a key computation for mainnet can be completed in 11 hours
instead of ~2 days (!) thanks to better cache usage and less read
amplification - with additional improvements to the on-disk format, we
can probably get rid of the initial full traversal method of seeding the
key cache on first start after import
All in all, this PR reduces the size of a mainnet database from 160gb to
110gb and the peak memory footprint during import by ~1-2gb.

Pre-allocate vids for branches (#2882)
Each branch node may have up to 16 sub-items - currently, these are
given VertexID based when they are first needed leading to a
mostly-random order of vertexid for each subitem.
Here, we pre-allocate all 16 vertex ids such that when a branch subitem
is filled, it already has a vertexid waiting for it. This brings several
important benefits:
* subitems are sorted and "close" in their id sequencing - this means
that when rocksdb stores them, they are likely to end up in the same
data block thus improving read efficiency
* because the ids are consequtive, we can store just the starting id and
a bitmap representing which subitems are in use - this reduces disk
space usage for branches allowing more of them fit into a single disk
read, further improving disk read and caching performance - disk usage
at block 18M is down from 84 to 78gb!
* the in-memory footprint of VertexRef reduced allowing more instances
to fit into caches and less memory to be used overall.
Because of the increased locality of reference, it turns out that we no
longer need to iterate over the entire database to efficiently generate
the hash key database because the normal computation is now faster -
this significantly benefits "live" chain processing as well where each
dirtied key must be accompanied by a read of all branch subitems next to

* rocksdb.max_open_files increased to 2048
* per-file size limits increased so that fewer files are created
* WAL size increased to avoid partial flushes which lead to small files
* rocksdb block cache increased
All these increases of course lead to increased memory usage, but at
least performance is acceptable - in the future, we'll need to explore
options such as joining AriVtx and AriKey and/or reducing the row count
(by grouping branch layers under a single vertexid).
With this PR, the mainnet state root can be computed in ~8 hours (down
from 2-3 days) - not great, but still better.
Further, we write all keys to the database, also those that are less
than 32 bytes - because the mpt path is part of the input, it is very
rare that we actually hit a key like this (about 200k such entries on
mainnet), so the code complexity is not worth the benefit really, in the
current database layout / design.

Speed up initial MPT root computation after import (#2788)
When `nimbus import` runs, we end up with a database without MPT roots
leading to long startup times the first time one is needed.
Computing the state root is slow because the on-disk order based on
VertexID sorting does not match the trie traversal order and therefore
makes lookups inefficent.
Here we introduce a helper that speeds up this computation by traversing
the trie in on-disk order and computing the trie hashes bottom up
instead - even though this leads to some redundant reads of nodes that
we cannot yet compute, it's still a net win as leaves and "bottom"
branches make up the majority of the database.
This PR also addresses a few other sources of inefficiency largely due
to the separation of AriKey and AriVtx into their own column families.
Each column family is its own LSM tree that produces hundreds of SST
filtes - with a limit of 512 open files, rocksdb must keep closing and
opening files which leads to expensive metadata reads during random
access.
When rocksdb makes a lookup, it has to read several layers of files for
each lookup. Ribbon filters to skip over files that don't have the
requested data but when these filters are not in memory, reading them is
slow - this happens in two cases: when opening a file and when the
filter has been evicted from the LRU cache. Addressing the open file
limit solves one source of inefficiency, but we must also increase the
block cache size to deal with this problem.
* rocksdb.max_open_files increased to 2048
* per-file size limits increased so that fewer files are created
* WAL size increased to avoid partial flushes which lead to small files

Pre-allocate vids for branches (#2882)
Each branch node may have up to 16 sub-items - currently, these are
given VertexID based when they are first needed leading to a
mostly-random order of vertexid for each subitem.
Here, we pre-allocate all 16 vertex ids such that when a branch subitem
is filled, it already has a vertexid waiting for it. This brings several
important benefits:
* subitems are sorted and "close" in their id sequencing - this means
that when rocksdb stores them, they are likely to end up in the same
data block thus improving read efficiency
* because the ids are consequtive, we can store just the starting id and
a bitmap representing which subitems are in use - this reduces disk
space usage for branches allowing more of them fit into a single disk
read, further improving disk read and caching performance - disk usage
at block 18M is down from 84 to 78gb!
* the in-memory footprint of VertexRef reduced allowing more instances
to fit into caches and less memory to be used overall.
Because of the increased locality of reference, it turns out that we no
longer need to iterate over the entire database to efficiently generate
the hash key database because the normal computation is now faster -
this significantly benefits "live" chain processing as well where each
dirtied key must be accompanied by a read of all branch subitems next to
it - most of the performance benefit in this branch comes from this
locality-of-reference improvement.
On a sample resync, there's already ~20% improvement with later blocks
seeing increasing benefit (because the trie is deeper in later blocks
leading to more benefit from branch read perf improvements)
