* dist: precompiled binaries and Docker images
The builds are reproducible, the binaries are portable and statically link librocksdb.
This took some patching. Upstream PR: https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9752
32-bit ARM is missing as a target because two different GCC versions
fail with an ICE when trying to cross-compile RocksDB. Using Clang
instead is too much trouble for a platform that nobody should be using
anyway.
(Clang doesn't come with its own target headers and libraries, can't be
easily convinced to use the ones from GCC, so it needs an fs image from
a 32-bit ARM distro - at which point I stopped caring).
* CI: disable reproducibility test
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
why:
* easy browsing of prototype docs, allows to follow links with
a web browser on the local file system
* some md & png files may contain additional documentation
overview:
* separate nimbus/makefile, try "make -C nimbus" for instructions
* running "make -C nimbus docs" will do the job
* x-ref file in nimbus/docs/theindex.html
* additional md and png files in nimbus/docs/ex/.. subdirectory
details:
* a newer nim compiler provides better referencing when available, in
particular the back link to the indices are not provided by the 1.2.10
nim compiler (automatically handled by makefile)
* make patterns are used to update files only when the timestamp changes
* should provide "discount" markdown generator, otherwise fallback
to <pre/> encapsulated text file
- moved "nimbus/api" to "wrappers"
- renamed files
- replaced the build scripts with Makefile targets
- set the rpath relative to the test binary's location so it can look
for libnimbus.so there at runtime
- libnimbus.so.0 required on Linux, apparently
- compiled all the Nimbus code with `--app:lib`, not just one file (this
required skipping a proc in "nimbus/config.nim" because it uses an API
that's unavailable in libraries)
- removed static linking from the Go wrapper. It doesn't make sense at a
global level, when using a shared Nimbus library. To selectively link
static libraries, we should probably be specifying them as *.a. I did
build a static libnimbus.a, as a test, but it insisted on dlopen-ing a
shared version of itself which looked too ugly to continue.
* dummy c lib
* go stuffz
* Compile secp
* Compile as shared library
* Build with debug info
* Prelude exposed fns with setupForeignThreadGc() (naive)
To avoid GC/thread issues causing segmentation fault when running from Go.
* Add logging, fix lib path and gomaxprocs to make debuggable
* lock to os thread
* Address basic feedback and mark TODOs
* Use normal secp (shared lib flow now)
* api: cleanup, move to api folder
- build all tools using the Makefile and place them in ./build
- add copyright header to Makefile
- premix/readme.md edited to fix some errors, improve descriptions and
document Makefile usage
- link the Premix documentation in the main README.md
- also build `hunter` in the nimble tests
- refactored the file and directory search so all debugging tools can be run
from the top-level dir like this: `./build/<tool> ...`
- write all JSON debugging data in the current directory
- add JSON files generated in the top-level dir to .gitignore
- Nimbus now exits with an exception after dumping debug data and
running `premix` on it
- isolate dependencies (both Git repos and ".nimble" dir) in "vendor"
- ensure that everything is compiled using our version of Nim with
something as simple as "make"
- pull the latest changes with "make update"
- re-create Nimble's package dir and re-build the Nim compiler automatically when needed
- "env.sh" script that can be used to prefix any command that needs to use
"nim" or "nimble" from our Nim repo
- move the top level nim.cfg to nimbus/nim.cfg so it doesn't apply to
deps
- "fetch-dlls" `make` target for Windows to get precompiled Snappy, RocksDB and SQLite DLLs
