This is a minimal set of changes to make things work with the new types
in nim-eth - this is the minimal PR that merely resolves
incompatibilities while the full change set would include more cleanup
and migration.
It is common for many accounts to share the same code - at the database
level, code is stored by hash meaning only one copy exists per unique
program but when loaded in memory, a copy is made for each account.
Further, every time we execute the code, it must be scanned for invalid
jump destinations which slows down EVM exeuction.
Finally, the extcodesize call causes code to be loaded even if only the
size is needed.
This PR improves on all these points by introducing a shared
CodeBytesRef type whose code section is immutable and that can be shared
between accounts. Further, a dedicated `len` API call is added so that
the EXTCODESIZE opcode can operate without polluting the GC and code
cache, for cases where only the size is requested - rocksdb will in this
case cache the code itself in the row cache meaning that lookup of the
code itself remains fast when length is asked for first.
With 16k code entries, there's a 90% hit rate which goes up to 99%
during the 2.3M attack - the cache significantly lowers memory
consumption and execution time not only during this event but across the
board.
`initTable` is obsolete since nim 0.19 and can introduce significant
memory overhead while providing no benefit (since the table will be
grown to the default initial size on first use anyway).
In particular, aristo layers will not necessarily use all tables they
initialize, for exampe when many empty accounts are being created.
* Activate `LedgerRef` wrapper for `AccountsCache`
details:
`accounts_cache.nim` methods are indirectly processed by the wrapper
methods from `ledger.nim`.
This works for all sources except `test_state_db.nim` where the source
`accounts_cache.nim` is included (rather than imported) in order to
access objects privy to the very source.
* Provide facility to switch to a preselected `LedgerRef` type
details:
Can be set as suggestion when initialising `CommonRef`
* Update `CoreDb` test suite for better time tracking
details:
+ Allow time logging by pre-defined block intervals
+ Print `CoreDb`/`Ledger`profiling results (if enabled)
* Disable `TransactionID` related functions from `state_db.nim`
why:
Functions `getCommittedStorage()` and `updateOriginalRoot()` from
the `state_db` module are nowhere used. The emulation of a legacy
`TransactionID` type functionality is administratively expensive to
provide by `Aristo` (the legacy DB version is only partially
implemented, anyway).
As there is no other place where `TransactionID`s are used, they will
not be provided by the `Aristo` variant of the `CoreDb`. For the
legacy DB API, nothing will change.
* Fix copyright headers in source code
* Get rid of compiler warning
* Update Aristo code, remove unused `merge()` variant, export `hashify()`
why:
Adapt to upcoming `CoreDb` wrapper
* Remove synced tx feature from `Aristo`
why:
+ This feature allowed to synchronise transaction methods like begin,
commit, and rollback for a group of descriptors.
+ The feature is over engineered and not needed for `CoreDb`, neither
is it complete (some convergence features missing.)
* Add debugging helpers to `Kvt`
also:
Update database iterator, add count variable yield argument similar
to `Aristo`.
* Provide optional destructors for `CoreDb` API
why;
For the upcoming Aristo wrapper, this allows to control when certain
smart destruction and update can take place. The auto destructor works
fine in general when the storage/cache strategy is known and acceptable
when creating descriptors.
* Add update option for `CoreDb` API function `hash()`
why;
The hash function is typically used to get the state root of the MPT.
Due to lazy hashing, this might be not available on the `Aristo` DB.
So the `update` function asks for re-hashing the gurrent state changes
if needed.
* Update API tracking log mode: `info` => `debug
* Use shared `Kvt` descriptor in new Ledger API
why:
No need to create a new descriptor all the time
simplify EVM and delegete those things to accounts cache.
also no more manual state clearing, accounts cache will be
responsible for both collecting touched account and perform
state clearing.
Two unresolved items currently:
- Three tests that are temporarily disabled as they fail in the
macro_assembler code, which seems to be due to an ambigious
identifier Stop (Ops and chronos ServerCommand enum).
- i386 CI disabled as it fails at Nim compilation already. Failed
tests where already ignored for this target.
* 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.
File `vm_types2` is obsolete. Remove this file and divert all imports to the
common forks list outside the EVM, or in some cases they don't need it anyway.

The conditions mentioned in the old TODO comment have been checked. All
fixtures have either 40 hex digits or empty string for "to". There is a test
with all-zeros, and it means send to that account, not contract creation.
Empty string means contract creation.
This patch does not change the relaxed parsing where fewer than 40 digits is
accepted. We should probably be stricter about this.

when a skipped test case not in the skip list
but skipped using `testStatusIMPL`, the generated
markdown file list it as failed.
now that bug is fixed.
The "new block chain json tests" were being skipped on Linux, but silently so
that CI didn't notice. These are a significant part of the Ethereum test suite.
See the missing output from `make test`, also visible in CI logs for Linux
targets (prior to this commit):
[OK] tests/fixtures/eth_tests/TransactionTests/ttGasPrice/TransactionWithGasPriceOverflow.json
[OK] tests/fixtures/eth_tests/TransactionTests/ttGasPrice/TransactionWithHighGasPrice.json
[Suite] new block chain json tests
<-- nothing here
[Suite] Fork ID tests
[OK] MainNet
[OK] RopstenNet
Commit 3d468a7 (`fixes path pointing to eth_tests`) renamed the JSON fixture
source directoryf in the witness-builder tests but not the regular blockchain
tests. As a result, searching for JSON test files yielded zero results. To
make this less likely in future, zero results is now an error.
