Any transaction where tx.sender has a CODEHASH != EMPTYCODEHASH MUST
be rejected as invalid, where EMPTYCODEHASH =
0xc5d2460186f7233c927e7db2dcc703c0e500b653ca82273b7bfad8045d85a470.
The invalid transaction MUST be rejected by the client and not be included
in a block. A block containing such a transaction MUST be considered invalid.
because EIP-4399 override mixDigest validation rule,
there is no need to check mixDigest == ZERO_HASH
`mixDigest` will carry POS block randomness value
* Improve the tests of the local testnet
The local testnet test was rather flaky and would occasionally
fail. It has been made more robust by adding the ENRs directly
to the routing table instead of doing some random lookups.
Additionally, the amount of nodes were increased (=64), ip limits
configuration was added, and the bits-per-hop value was set to 1
in order to make the lookups more likely to hit the network
instead of only the local routing table.
Failure is obviously still possible to happen when sufficient
packets get lost. If this turns out to be the case with the current
amount of nodes, we might have to revise the testing strategy here.
* Disable lookup test for State network
Disable lookup test for State network due to issue with custom
distance function causing the lookup to not always converging
towards the target.
* Kludge needed for setting up custom network
why:
Some non-features in the persistent hexary trie DB produce an assert
error when initiating the Kinsugi network.
details:
This fix should be temporary, only.
* Fix OS detection
why:
directive detectOs() bails out on Windows if checking for Ubuntu
* test environment for studying crash of hexary trie
why:
the persistent test case will crash unless in genesis.toBlock():
+ pruneTrie is set false, or
+ the directive "tdb.put(emptyRlpHash.data,emptyRlp)" is added right
before the "for k, v in account.storage:" loop
* different tests for OS variants
Includes a simple test harness for the merge interop M1 milestone
This aims to enable connecting nimbus-eth2 to nimbus-eth1 within
the testing protocol described here:
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/blob/amphora-merge-interop/docs/interop_merge.md
To execute the work-in-progress test, please run:
In terminal 1:
tests/amphora/launch-nimbus.sh
In terminal 2:
tests/amphora/check-merge-test-vectors.sh
details:
For documentation, see comments in the file tx_pool.nim.
For prettified manual pages run 'make docs' in the nimbus directory and
point your web browser to the newly created 'docs' directory.
why:
Some helper file will not be generated by the nim document gereator,
so they have been stashed from a later nim version to be provided when
missing.
This problem was known with an earlier nim version (see here
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/8952) but was reported solved.
Maybe we need a second look into that.
why:
Previously, the function 'snapshot_desc.loadSnapshot()' contained the
equivalent of 'eth.decode(@[],SnapshotData)' for some type 'SnapshotData'
which should result in an exception of type 'RlpTypeMismatch'.
Before mid October, this worked for all systems on the Github CI. Since
then, a segfault message in the Github CI can be reproduced on all 64bit
Windows wuns when running 'build/all_tests <id-of-test_txpool>' after the
failed 'make test' directive (the latter one needs to be extended by
'|| true'.) This error cannot be reproduced on my local Win7/64 system
with the same MSYS2 and gcc 11.2.0 compiler.
The fix is, rather than catching an exception, to explicitly check the
first argument of 'eth.decode(@[],SnapshotData)' and act if it is empty.
also:
removed some obsolete {.inline.} annotations.
why:
Previous version was based on lru_cache which is ugly. This module is
based on the stew/keyed_queue library module.
other:
There are still some other modules rely on lru_cache which should be
removed.
* Redesign of BaseVMState descriptor
why:
BaseVMState provides an environment for executing transactions. The
current descriptor also provides data that cannot generally be known
within the execution environment, e.g. the total gasUsed which is
available not before after all transactions have finished.
Also, the BaseVMState constructor has been replaced by a constructor
that does not need pre-initialised input of the account database.
also:
Previous constructor and some fields are provided with a deprecated
annotation (producing a lot of noise.)
* Replace legacy directives in production sources
* Replace legacy directives in unit test sources
* fix CI (missing premix update)
* Remove legacy directives
* chase CI problem
* rebased
* Re-introduce 'AccountsCache' constructor optimisation for 'BaseVmState' re-initialisation
why:
Constructing a new 'AccountsCache' descriptor can be avoided sometimes
when the current state root is properly positioned already. Such a
feature existed already as the update function 'initStateDB()' for the
'BaseChanDB' where the accounts cache was linked into this desctiptor.
The function 'initStateDB()' was removed and re-implemented into the
'BaseVmState' constructor without optimisation. The old version was of
restricted use as a wrong accounts cache state would unconditionally
throw an exception rather than conceptually ask for a remedy.
The optimised 'BaseVmState' re-initialisation has been implemented for
the 'persistBlocks()' function.
also:
moved some test helpers to 'test/replay' folder
* Remove unused & undocumented fields from Chain descriptor
why:
Reduces attack surface in general & improves reading the code.
details:
1. The check for cumulativeGasUsed + tx.gasLimit <= header.gasLimit
makes neither sense nor is it part of the Eip1559 specs. Nevertheless
a check tx.gasLimit <= header.gasLimit is added to satisfy some
unit test (see comments in validateTransaction() body.)
2. As a replacement check for the one removed in 1, a check for
cumulativeGasUsed + gasBurned <= header.gasLimit has been added
(see comments in processTransactionImpl() body.)
3. Prototypes for processTransaction() variants have been cleaned up and
commented.
why:
Detail 1. in particular produces an error for tightly packed blocks when
the last tx in the list has a generous gasLimit.
- Allow access to contentDB from portal wire protocol
- Use this to do the db.get in `handleFindContent` directly
- Use this to check the `contentKeys` list in `handleOffer`
* Change History content key to us SSZ Union and adjust tests
* Change slot to byteBE instead of LE
This is currently not specified in the Portal network
specifications, but we are using already BE for the actual content
key, so change it also here to remain consistent.
