## =====
## * No uncles are handled by this pool
##
## * Impose a size limit to the bucket database. Which items would be removed?
##
## * There is a conceivable problem with the per-account optimisation. The
##   algorithm chooses an account and does not stop packing until all txs
##   of the account are packed or the block is full. In the latter case,
##   there might be some txs left unpacked from the account which might be
##   the most lucrative ones. Should this be tackled (see also next item)?
##
## * The classifier throws out all txs with negative gas tips. This implies
##   that all subsequent txs must also be suspended for this account even
##   though these following txs might be extraordinarily profitable so that
##   packing the whole account might be woth wile. Should this be considered,

##
## Transaction Pool
## ================
##
## The transaction pool collects transactions and holds them in a database.
## This database consists of the three buckets *pending*, *staged*, and
## *packed* and a *waste basket*. These database entities are discussed in
## more detail, below.
##
## At some point, there will be some transactions in the *staged* bucket.
## Upon request, the pool will pack as many of those transactions as possible
## into to *packed* bucket which will subsequently be used to generate a
## new Ethereum block.
##
## When packing transactions from *staged* into *packed* bucked, the staged
## transactions are sorted by *sender account* and *nonce*. The *sender
## account* values are ordered by a *ranking* function (highest ranking first)
## and the *nonce* values by their natural integer order. Then, transactions
## are greedily picked from the ordered set until there are enough
## transactions in the *packed* bucket. Some boundary condition applies which
## roughly says that for a given account, all the transactions packed must
## leave no gaps between nonce values when sorted.
##
## The rank function applied to the *sender account* sorting is chosen as a
## guess for higher profitability which goes with a higher rank account.
##
##
## Rank calculator
## ---------------
## Let *tx()* denote the mapping
## ::
##   tx: (account,nonce) -> tx
##
## from an index pair *(account,nonce)* to a transaction *tx*. Also, for some
## external parameter *baseFee*, let
## ::
##   maxProfit: (tx,baseFee) -> tx.effectiveGasTip(baseFee) * tx.gasLimit
##
## be the maximal tip a single transation can achieve (where unit of the
## *effectiveGasTip()* is a *price* and *gasLimit* is a *commodity value*.).
## Then the rank function
## ::
##   rank(account) = Σ maxProfit(tx(account,ν),baseFee) / Σ tx(account,ν).gasLimit
##                   ν                                    ν
##
## is a *price* estimate of the maximal avarage tip per gas unit over all
## transactions for the given account. The nonces `ν` for the summation
## run over all transactions from the *staged* and *packed* bucket.
##
##

##
## The three columns *Batch queue*, *State bucket*, and *Terminal state*
## represent three different accounting (or database) systems. The pool
## database is continuosly updated while new transactions are added.
## Transactions are bundled with meta data which holds the full datanbase
## state in addition to other cached information like the sender account.
##
##
## New transactions
## ----------------
## When entering the pool, new transactions are bundled with meta data and
## appended to the batch queue. These bundles are called *items* which are
## forwarded to one of the following entites:
##
## * the *staged* bucket if the transaction is valid and match some constraints
##   on expected minimum mining fees (or a semblance of that for *non-PoW*
##   networks)
## * the *pending* bucket if the transaction is valid but is not subject to be
##   held in the *staged* bucket
## * the *waste basket* if the transaction is invalid
##
## If a valid transaction item supersedes an existing one, the existing
## item is moved to the waste basket and the new transaction replaces the
## existing one in the current bucket if the gas price of the transaction is
## at least `priceBump` per cent higher (see adjustable parameters, below.)
##
## Status buckets
## --------------
## The term *bucket* is a nickname for a set of *items* (i.e. transactions
## bundled with meta data as mentioned earlier) all labelled with the same
## `status` symbol and not marked  *waste*. In particular, bucket membership
## for an item is encoded as
##
## * the `status` field indicates the particular *bucket* membership
## * the `reject` field is reset/unset and has zero-equivalent value
##
## The following boundary conditions hold for the union of all buckets:
##
## * *Unique index:*
##    Let **T** be the union of all buckets and **Q** be the
##    set of *(sender,nonce)* pairs derived from the items of **T**. Then
##    **T** and **Q** are isomorphic, i.e. for each pair *(sender,nonce)*
##    from **Q** there is exactly one item from **T**, and vice versa.
##
## * *Consecutive nonces:*
##     For each *(sender0,nonce0)* of **Q**, either
##     *(sender0,nonce0-1)* is in  **Q** or *nonce0* is the current nonce as
##     registered with the *sender account* (implied by the block chain),
##
## The *consecutive nonces* requirement involves the *sender account*
## which depends on the current state of the block chain as represented by the
## internally cached head (i.e. insertion point where a new block is to be
## appended.)
##
## The following notation describes sets of *(sender,nonce)* pairs for
## per-bucket items. It will be used for boundary conditions similar to the
## ones above.
##
## * **Pending** denotes the set of *(sender,nonce)* pairs for the
##   *pending* bucket
##
## * **Staged** denotes the set of *(sender,nonce)* pairs for the
##   *staged* bucket
##
## * **Packed** denotes the set of *(sender,nonce)* pairs for the
##   *packed* bucket
##
## The pending bucket
## ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
## Items in this bucket hold valid transactions that are not in any of the
## other buckets. All itmes might be promoted form here into other buckets if
## the current state of the block chain as represented by the internally cached
## head changes.
##
## The staged bucket
## ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
## Items in this bucket are ready to be added to a new block. They typycally
## imply some expected minimum reward when mined on PoW networks. Some
## boundary condition holds:
##
## * *Consecutive nonces:*
##     For any *(sender0,nonce0)* pair from **Staged**, the pair
##     *(sender0,nonce0-1)* is not in **Pending**.
##
## Considering the respective boundary condition on the union of buckets
## **T**, this condition here implies that a *staged* per sender nonce has a
## predecessor in the *staged* or *packed* bucket or is a nonce as registered
## with the *sender account*.
##
## The packed bucket
## ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
## All items from this bucket have been selected from the *staged* bucket, the
## transactions of which (i.e. unwrapped items) can go right away into a new
## ethernet block. How these items are selected was described at the beginning
## of this chapter. The following boundary conditions holds:
##
## * *Consecutive nonces:*
##     For any *(sender0,nonce0)* pair from **Packed**, the pair
##     *(sender0,nonce0-1)* is neither in **Pending**, nor in **Staged**.
##
## Considering the respective boundary condition on the union of buckets
## **T**, this condition here implies that a *packed* per-sender nonce has a
## predecessor in the very *packed* bucket or is a nonce as registered with the
## *sender account*.
##
##
## Terminal state
## --------------
## After use, items are disposed into a waste basket *FIFO* queue which has a
## maximal length. If the length is exceeded, the oldest items are deleted.
## The waste basket is used as a cache for discarded transactions that need to
## re-enter the system. Recovering from the waste basket saves the effort of
## recovering the sender account from the signature. An item is identified
## *waste* if
##
## * the `reject` field is explicitely set and has a value different
##   from a zero-equivalent.
##
## So a *waste* item is clearly distinguishable from any active one as a
## member of one of the *status buckets*.
##
##
##
## Pool coding
## ===========
## A piece of code using this pool architecture could look like as follows:
## ::
##    # see also unit test examples, e.g. "Block packer tests"
##    var db: CoreDbRef                      # to be initialised
##    var txs: seq[Transaction]              # to be initialised
##
##    proc mineThatBlock(blk: EthBlock)      # external function
##
##    ..
##
##    var xq = TxPoolRef.new(db)             # initialise tx-pool
##    ..
##
##    xq.add(txs)                            # add transactions ..
##    ..                                     # .. into the buckets
##
##    let newBlock = xq.assembleBlock        # fetch current mining block
##
##    ..
##    mineThatBlock(newBlock) ...            # external mining & signing process
##    ..
##
##    xp.smartHead(newBlock.header)          # update pool, new insertion point
##
##
## Discussion of example
## ---------------------
## In the example, transactions are processed into buckets via `add()`.
##
## The `ethBlock()` directive assembles and retrieves a new block for mining
## derived from the current pool state. It invokes the block packer which
## accumulates txs from the `pending` buscket into the `packed` bucket which
## then go into the block.
##
## Then mining and signing takes place ...
##
## After mining and signing, the view of the block chain as seen by the pool
## must be updated to be ready for a new mining process. In the best case, the
## canonical head is just moved to the currently mined block which would imply
## just to discard the contents of the *packed* bucket with some additional
## transactions from the *staged* bucket. A more general block chain state
## head update would be more complex, though.
##
## In the most complex case, the newly mined block was added to some block
## chain branch which has become an uncle to the new canonical head retrieved
## by `getCanonicalHead()`. In order to update the pool to the very state
## one would have arrived if worked on the retrieved canonical head branch
## in the first place, the directive `smartHead()` calculates the actions of
## what is needed to get just there from the locally cached head state of the
## pool. These actions are applied by `smartHead()` after the internal head
## position was moved.
##
## The *setter* behind the internal head position adjustment also caches
## updated internal parameters as base fee, state, fork, etc.
##
##
## Adjustable Parameters
## ---------------------
##
## flags
##   The `flags` parameter holds a set of strategy symbols for how to process
##   items and buckets.
##
##   *stageItems1559MinFee*
##     Stage tx items with `tx.maxFee` at least `minFeePrice`. Other items are
##     left or set pending. This symbol affects post-London tx items, only.
##
##   *stageItems1559MinTip*
##     Stage tx items with `tx.effectiveGasTip(baseFee)` at least
##     `minTipPrice`. Other items are considered underpriced and left or set
##     pending. This symbol affects post-London tx items, only.
##
##   *stageItemsPlMinPrice*
##     Stage tx items with `tx.gasPrice` at least `minPreLondonGasPrice`.
##     Other items are considered underpriced and left or set pending. This
##     symbol affects pre-London tx items, only.
##
##   *packItemsMaxGasLimit*
##     It set, the *packer* will execute and collect additional items from
##     the `staged` bucket while accumulating `gasUsed` as long as
##     `maxGasLimit` is not exceeded. If `packItemsTryHarder` flag is also
##     set, the *packer* will not stop until at least `hwmGasLimit` is
##     reached.
##
##     Otherwise the *packer* will accumulate up until `trgGasLimit` is
##     not exceeded, and not stop until at least `lwmGasLimit` is reached
##     in case `packItemsTryHarder` is also set,
##
##   *packItemsTryHarder*
##     It set, the *packer* will *not* stop accumulaing transactions up until
##     the `lwmGasLimit` or `hwmGasLimit` is reached, depending on whether
##     the `packItemsMaxGasLimit` is set. Otherwise, accumulating stops
##     immediately before the next transaction exceeds `trgGasLimit`, or
##     `maxGasLimit` depending on `packItemsMaxGasLimit`.
##
##   *autoUpdateBucketsDB*
##     Automatically update the state buckets after running batch jobs if the
##     `dirtyBuckets` flag is also set.
##
##   *autoZombifyUnpacked*
##     Automatically dispose *pending* or *staged* tx items that were added to
##     the state buckets database at least `lifeTime` ago.
##
##   *autoZombifyPacked*
##     Automatically dispose *packed* tx itemss that were added to
##     the state buckets database at least `lifeTime` ago.
##
##   *..there might be more strategy symbols..*
##
## hwmTrgPercent
##   This parameter implies the size of `hwmGasLimit` which is calculated
##   as `max(trgGasLimit, maxGasLimit * lwmTrgPercent  / 100)`.
##
## lifeTime
##   Txs that stay longer in one of the buckets will be  moved to a waste
##   basket. From there they will be eventually deleted oldest first when
##   the maximum size would be exceeded.
##
## lwmMaxPercent
##   This parameter implies the size of `lwmGasLimit` which is calculated
##   as `max(minGasLimit, trgGasLimit * lwmTrgPercent  / 100)`.
##
## minFeePrice
##   Applies no EIP-1559 txs only. Txs are packed if `maxFee` is at least
##   that value.
##
## minTipPrice
##   For EIP-1559, txs are packed if the expected tip (see `estimatedGasTip()`)
##   is at least that value. In compatibility mode for legacy txs, this
##   degenerates to `gasPrice - baseFee`.
##
## minPreLondonGasPrice
##   For pre-London or legacy txs, this parameter has precedence over
##   `minTipPrice`. Txs are packed if the `gasPrice` is at least that value.
##
## priceBump
##   There can be only one transaction in the database for the same `sender`
##   account and `nonce` value. When adding a transaction with the same
##   (`sender`, `nonce`) pair, the new transaction will replace the current one
##   if it has a gas price which is at least `priceBump` per cent higher.
##
##
## Read-Only Parameters
## --------------------
##
## baseFee
##   This parameter is derived from the internally cached block chain state.
##   The base fee parameter modifies/determines the expected gain when packing
##   a new block (is set to *zero* for *pre-London* blocks.)
##
## dirtyBuckets
##   If `true`, the state buckets database is ready for re-org if the
##   `autoUpdateBucketsDB` flag is also set.
##
## gasLimit
##   Taken or derived from the current block chain head, incoming txs that
##   exceed this gas limit are stored into the *pending* bucket (maybe
##   eligible for staging at the next cycle when the internally cached block
##   chain state is updated.)
##
## head
##   Cached block chain insertion point, not necessarily the same header as
##   retrieved by the `getCanonicalHead()`. This insertion point can be
##   adjusted with the `smartHead()` function.
##
## hwmGasLimit
##   This parameter is at least `trgGasLimit` and does not exceed
##   `maxGasLimit` and can be adjusted by means of setting `hwmMaxPercent`. It
##   is used by the packer as a minimum block size if both flags
##   `packItemsTryHarder` and `packItemsMaxGasLimit` are set.
##
## lwmGasLimit
##   This parameter is at least `minGasLimit` and does not exceed
##   `trgGasLimit` and can be adjusted by means of setting `lwmTrgPercent`. It
##   is used by the packer as a minimum block size if the flag
##   `packItemsTryHarder` is set and `packItemsMaxGasLimit` is unset.
##
## maxGasLimit
##   This parameter is at least `hwmGasLimit`. It is calculated considering
##   the current state of the block chain as represented by the internally
##   cached head. This parameter is used by the *packer* as a size limit if
##   `packItemsMaxGasLimit` is set.
##
## minGasLimit
##   This parameter is calculated considering the current state of the block
##   chain as represented by the internally cached head. It can be used for
##   verifying that a generated block does not underflow minimum size.
##   Underflow can only be happen if there are not enough transaction available
##   in the pool.
##
## trgGasLimit
##   This parameter is at least `lwmGasLimit` and does not exceed
##   `maxGasLimit`. It is calculated considering the current state of the block
##   chain as represented by the internally cached head. This parameter is
##   used by the *packer* as a size limit if `packItemsMaxGasLimit` is unset.
