* Re-implemented `hexaryFollow()` in a more general fashion
details:
+ New name for re-implemented `hexaryFollow()` is `hexaryPath()`
+ Renamed `rTreeFollow()` as `hexaryPath()`
why:
Returning similarly organised structures, the results of the
`hexaryPath()` functions become comparable when running over
the persistent and the in-memory databases.
* Added traversal functionality for persistent ChainDB
* Using `Account` values as re-packed Blob
* Repack samples as compressed data files
* Produce test data
details:
+ Can force pivot state root switch after minimal coverage.
+ For emulating certain network behaviour, downloading accounts stops for
a particular pivot state root if 30% (some static number) coverage is
reached. Following accounts are downloaded for a later pivot state root.
* Bump nim-stew
why:
Need fixed interval set
* Keep track of accumulated account ranges over all state roots
* Added comments and explanations to unit tests
* typo
* Extracted functionality into sub-modules for maintainability
* Setting SST bulk load as default in `accounts_db`
details:
+ currently, the same data are stored via rocksdb if available, and
the same via embedded `storage_type` with (non-standard) prefix 200
for time comparisons
+ fallback to normal `put()` unless rocksdb is accessible
* Provided common scheduler API, applied to `full` sync
* Use hexary trie as storage for proofs_db records
also:
+ Store metadata with account for keeping track of account state
+ add iterator over accounts
* Common scheduler API applied to `snap` sync
* Prepare for accounts bulk import
details:
+ Added some ad-hoc checks for proving accounts data received from the
snap/1 (will be replaced by proper database version when ready)
+ Added code that dumps some of the received snap/1 data into a file
(turned of by default, see `worker_desc.nim`)
* Added sepolia specs
* temporarily avoid latest `master` branch from `nim-eth1`
why:
Currently does not cleanly compile after the `bearssl` split api update.
* Relocated `IntervalSets` to nim-stew repo
* Accumulate accounts on temporary kv-DB
why:
Explore the data as returned from snap/1. Will be converted to a
`eth/db` next.
details:
Verify and accumulate per/state-root accounts downloaded via snap.
also:
Some unit tests
* Replace `Table` by `TrieDatabaseRef` for accounts accumulator
* update ticker statistics
details:
mean/variance based counter update
* allow persistent db for proved accounts
* rebase, and globally activate unit test
* fix statistics
* Using `IntervalSet` type data for `LeafRange`
* Updated log ticker
* Update to `eth67`
details:
Disabled by default, use `ENABLE_LEGACY_ETH66=0` to enable
No support for `Get/NodeData` dialogue via eth, anymore
* Dissolved fetch/common.nim
details;
the log/ticker part becomes ticker.nim
the interval range management is merged into fetch.nim
* Updated account scheduler
why:
The previous scheduler fetched each account once (for different state
roots.) The updated scheduler re-calibrates after a change of the state
root and potentially (until told otherwise) fetches all possible
accounts.
* Fix `high(P)` fringe cases in `IntervalSet` handling
why:
The `high(P)` value for a point type `P` cannot be represented with
half open intervals `[a,b)` for a,b points of `P`. So this single value
needs extra treatment which was slightly wrong.
* Updated docu/comments
also:
rebased
* Update scheduler
details:
Change the `pivot` management when creating new accounts lists. It is
strictly increasing (and wrapping around) depending on last updated
accounts list.
* Use type name eth and snap (rather than snap1)
* Prettified snap/eth handler trace messages
* Regrouped sync sources
details:
Snap storage related sources are moved to common directory.
Option --new-sync renamed to --snap-sync
also:
Normalised logging for secondary/non-protocol handlers.
* Merge protocol wrapper files => protocol.nim
details:
Merge wrapper sync/protocol_ethxx.nim and sync/protocol_snapxx.nim
into single file snap/protocol.nim
* Comments cosmetics
* Similar start logic for blockchain_sync.nim and sync/snap.nim
* Renamed p2p/blockchain_sync.nim -> sync/fast.nim
* Update exception tracinig
* Use lazy JSON parser
why:
Uint246 type is not directly supported by the JSON serializer
* Json parser update for stringified UInt256 integers
why:
Now available
* update sub-module branch reference
* Prepare unit tests for running without tx-pool job queue
why:
Most of the job queue logic can be emulated. This adapts to a few
pathological test cases.
* Replace tx-pool job queue logic with in-place actions
why:
This additional execution layer is not needed, anymore which has been
learned from working with the integration/hive tests.
details:
Execution of add or deletion jobs are executed in-place. Some actions
-- as in smartHead() -- have been combined for facilitating the correct
order actions
* Update production functions, remove txpool legacy stuff
* Enable JWT authentication for websockets
details:
Currently, this is optional and only enabled when the jwtsecret option
is set.
There is a default mechanism to generate a JWT secret if it is not
explicitly stated. This mechanism is currently unused.
* Make JWT authentication compulsory for websockets
* Fix unit test entry point + cosmetics
* Update JSON-RPC link
* Improvements as suggested by Mamy
why:
Causes havoc in most bit fringe cases.
details:
When setting the head forward, the delta was wrongly registered from
the static "left" end (which limits the loop) rather than the moving
"right" end.
* Fix database sort order for local txs
why:
For convenience, packed txs were stored in the block sorted by
rank->nonce. Using local accounts, the greedy grabber uses the sort
order (local,non-local)->rank->nonce which leads to a wrong calculation
of the txRoot.
* Housekeeping
details:
Replaced a couple of local eip1559TxNormalization() functions by a
single public
* Support for local accounts
why:
Accounts tagged local will be packed with priority over untagged
accounts
* Added functions for queuing txs and simultaneously setting account locality
why:
Might be a popular task, in particular for unconditionally adding txs to
a local (aka prioritised account) via "xp.addLocal(tx,true)"
caveat:
Untested yet
* fix typo
* backup
* No baseFee for pre-London tx in verifier
why:
The packer would wrongly discard valid legacy txs.
* De-noisify some Clique logging
why:
Too annoying when syncing against Goerly
* Replay devnet# and kiln sessions
why:
Compiled as local program, the unit test was used for TDD.
* 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
* Activate wire protocol eth/66
and:
Disentangle protocol_eth66.nim from import sections
why:
Importing the protocol_eth66 module is not necessary. There is
no need to know too many details of the underlying wire protocol. All
that is needed will be exported by blockchain_sync.nim.
* fixes, and rebase
* Update nimbus/p2p/blockchain_sync.nim
Co-authored-by: Kim De Mey <kim.demey@gmail.com>
* Fixes and rebase
Co-authored-by: Kim De Mey <kim.demey@gmail.com>
why:
TDD data and test script that are not needed for CI are externally held.
This saves space.
also:
Added support for test-custom_networks.nim to run import Devnet5 dump.
* Rearrange/rename test_kintsugu => test_custom_network
why:
Debug, fix and test more general problems related to running
nimbus on a custom network.
* Update UInt265/Json parser for --custom-network command line option
why:
As found out with the Kintsugi configuration, block number and balance
have the same Nim type which led to misunderstandings. This patch makes
sure that UInt265 encoded string values "0x11" decodes to 17, and "b"
and "11" to 11.
* Refactored genesis.toBlock() => genesis.toBlockHeader()
why:
The function toBlock(g,db) may return different results depending on
whether the db descriptor argument is nil, or initialised. This is due
to the db.config data sub-descriptor which may give various outcomes
for the baseFee field of the genesis header.
Also, the version where db is non-nil initialised is used internally
only. So the public rewrite toBlockHeader() that replaces the toBlock()
function expects a full set of NetworkParams.
* update comments
* Rename toBlockHeader() => toGenesisHeader()
why:
Polymorphic prototype used for BaseChainDB or NetworkParams argument.
With a BaseChainDB descriptor argument, the name shall imply that the
header is generated from the config fields rather than fetched from
the database.
* Added command line option --static-peers-file
why:
Handy feature to keep peer nodes in a file, similar to the
--bootstrap-file option.
* 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:
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.
* crash test scenario
details:
Example code for inspecting nested block chain and accounts cache
database transaction framework. There seems to be a pathological
case where the system crashes after a rollback (as appeared in the
tx-pool packer code.)
* simplified crash scenario
* Workable solution (as suggested by Andri)
details:
Avoiding db.rollback() (db.commit() is OK) while vmState.stateDB is
alive.
* Rename text_txcrash => test_accounts_cache
why:
Unit tests covers part of accounts_cache handling
* comment update
Add the new [Arrow Glacier fork](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-4345).
Only the difficulty calculation is changed, but as a new fork it still affects
a number of places in the code.
To the best of my knowledge the change is only scheduled on Mainnet.
In addition:
- The fork date comments in `chain_config.nim` have been checked against the
real networks, set consistently in UTC instead of random timezones, and made
neater. Maybe we'll keep these when transferring config to a file someday.
- It's added to forkid hash tests (EIP-2124/EIP-2364), of course.

* PoW wrapper for verification & mining
why:
It eases data management of per-Epoch lookup tables. Also some unit
tests show limits of usefulness on non-specialised machines for
mining besides developing tests.
details:
For PoW verification, this patch provides a pretty wrapper hiding the
details of the ethash/Hashimoto lookup cache management.
For mining on my development system without special hardware, the
underlying ethash functions are prohibitively slow. It takes
* ~20 minutes to prepare the full ethash/Hashimoto lookup dataset
* a second to run ~25k nonce tests (in the mining loop)
The mining part might be of some use for generating test data for
the tx-pool, though.
* Using PowRef as replacement for EpochHashCache + hashimotoLight()
* Fix typo (CI failed)
why:
was below log level when testing locally
* fix canonical naming
previously, every time the VMState was created, it will also create
new stateDB, and this action will nullify the advantages of cached accounts.
the new changes will conserve the accounts cache if the executed blocks
are contiguous. if not the stateDB need to be reinited.
this changes also allow rpcCallEvm and rpcEstimateGas executed properly
using current stateDB instead of creating new one each time they are called.
EIP-2718:
- chainID: Long! of Query
- chainID: Long of Transaction
EIP-1559:
- baseFeePerGas: BigInt of Block
- effectiveGasPrice: BigInt of Transaction
- maxFeePerGas: BigInt of Transaction
- maxPriorityFeePerGas: BigInt of Transaction
this is a preparation for migration to confutils based config
although there is still some getConfiguration usage in tests code
it will be removed after new config arrived
although they are technically different, but in reality,
many networks are using the same id for ChainId dan NetworkId.
in this commit, we set networkid from config file's chainId.
- allow clique period and epoch to be configured via config file
- this also activate poaEngine mode
- remove clique period configuration from cli to reduce confusion
- fix#786
Add these to the list of specially disabled tests during `make test`,
as they are exceptionally slow.

* Provide PoA voting header generator
why:
Handy for hive/smoke test
details:
Header generator is a re-implementation of the generator previously
used for the canonical reference tests.
* try fixing ci out-of-mem condition
why:
for some reason, the ci began behaving like a real win7/i386 machine
where gcc is limited to 64k optimiser space
* fix comments, typos ..
* Provide API
details:
API is bundled via clique.nim.
* Set extraValidation as default for PoA chains
why:
This triggers consensus verification and an update of the list
of authorised signers. These signers are integral part of the
PoA block chain.
todo:
Option argument to control validation for the nimbus binary.
* Fix snapshot state block number
why:
Using sub-sequence here, so the len() function was wrong.
* Optional start where block verification begins
why:
Can speed up time building loading initial parts of block chain. For
PoA, this allows to prove & test that authorised signers can be
(correctly) calculated starting at any point on the block chain.
todo:
On Goerli around blocks #193537..#197568, processing time increases
disproportionally -- needs to be understand
* For Clique test, get old grouping back (7 transactions per log entry)
why:
Forgot to change back after troubleshooting
* Fix field/function/module-name misunderstanding
why:
Make compilation work
* Use eth_types.blockHash() rather than utils.hash() in Clique modules
why:
Prefer lib module
* Dissolve snapshot_misc.nim
details:
.. into clique_verify.nim (the other source file clique_unused.nim
is inactive)
* Hide unused AsyncLock in Clique descriptor
details:
Unused here but was part of the Go reference implementation
* Remove fakeDiff flag from Clique descriptor
details:
This flag was a kludge in the Go reference implementation used for the
canonical tests. The tests have been adapted so there is no need for
the fakeDiff flag and its implementation.
* Not observing minimum distance from epoch sync point
why:
For compiling PoA state, the go implementation will walk back to the
epoch header with at least 90000 blocks apart from the current header
in the absence of other synchronisation points.
Here just the nearest epoch header is used. The assumption is that all
the checkpoints before have been vetted already regardless of the
current branch.
details:
The behaviour of using the nearest vs the minimum distance epoch is
controlled by a flag and can be changed at run time.
* Analysing processing time (patch adds some debugging/visualisation support)
why:
At the first half million blocks of the Goerli replay, blocks on the
interval #194854..#196224 take exceptionally long to process, but not
due to PoA processing.
details:
It turns out that much time is spent in p2p/excecutor.processBlock()
where the elapsed transaction execution time is significantly greater
for many of these blocks.
Between the 1371 blocks #194854..#196224 there are 223 blocks with more
than 1/2 seconds execution time whereas there are only 4 such blocks
before and 13 such after this range up to #504192.
* fix debugging symbol in clique_desc (causes CI failing)
* Fixing canonical reference tests
why:
Two errors were introduced earlier but ovelooked:
1. "Remove fakeDiff flag .." patch was incomplete
2. "Not observing minimum distance .." introduced problem w/tests 23/24
details:
Fixing 2. needed to revert the behaviour by setting the
applySnapsMinBacklog flag for the Clique descriptor. Also a new
test was added to lock the new behaviour.
* Remove cruft
why:
Clique/PoA processing was intended to take place somewhere in
executor/process_block.processBlock() but was decided later to run
from chain/persist_block.persistBlock() instead.
* Update API comment
* ditto

* Renamed source file clique_utils => clique_helpers
why:
New name is more in line with other modules where local libraries
are named similarly.
* re-implemented PoA verification module as clique_verify.nim
details:
The verification code was ported from the go sources and provisionally
stored in the clique_misc.nim source file.
todo:
Bring it to life.
* re-design Snapshot descriptor as: ref object
why:
Avoids some copying descriptor objects
details:
The snapshot management in clique_snapshot.nim has been cleaned up.
todo:
There is a lot of unnecessary copying & sub-list manipulation of
seq[BlockHeader] lists which needs to be simplified by managing
index intervals.
* optimised sequence handling for Clique/PoA
why:
To much ado about nothing
details:
* Working with shallow sequences inside PoA processing avoids
unnecessary copying.
* Using degenerate lists in the cliqueVerify() batch where only the
parent (and no other ancestor) is needed.
todo:
Expose only functions that are needed, shallow sequences should be
handles with care.
* fix var-parameter function argument
* Activate PoA engine -- currently proof of concept
details:
PoA engine is activated with newChain(extraValidation = true) applied
to a PoA network.
status and todo:
The extraValidation flag on the Chain object can be set at a later
state which allows to pre-load parts of the block chain without
verification. Setting it later will only go back the block chain to
the latest epoch checkpoint. This is inherent to the Clique protocol,
needs testing though.
PoA engine works in fine weather mode on Goerli replay. With the
canonical eip-225 tests, there are quite a few fringe conditions
that fail. These can easily fudged over to make things work but need
some more work to understand and correct properly.
* Make the last offending verification header available
why:
Makes some fringe case tests work.
details:
Within a failed transaction comprising several blocks, this
feature help to identify the offending block if there was a
PoA verification error.
* Make PoA header verifier store the final snapshot
why:
The last snapshot needed by the verifier is the one of the parent but
the list of authorised signer is derived from the current snapshot. So
updating to the latest snapshot provides the latest signers list.
details:
Also, PoA processing has been implemented as transaction in
persistBlocks() with Clique state rollback.
Clique tests succeed now.
* Avoiding double yields in iterator => replaced by template
why:
Tanks to Andri who observed it (see #762)
* Calibrate logging interval and fix logging event detection
why:
Logging interval as copied from Go implementation was too large and
needed re-calibration. Elapsed time calculation was bonkers, negative
the wrong way round.
* re-shuffled Clique functions
why:
Due to the port from the go-sources, the interface logic is not optimal
for nimbus. The main visible function is currently snapshot() and most
of the _procurement_ of this function result has been moved to a
sub-directory.
* run eip-225 Clique test against p2p/chain.persistBlocks()
why:
Previously, loading the test block chains was fugdged with the purpose
only to fill the database. As it is now clear how nimbus works on
Goerli, the same can be achieved with a more realistic scenario.
details:
Eventually these tests will be pre-cursor to the reply tests for the
Goerli chain supporting TDD approach with more simple cases.
* fix exception annotations for executor module
why:
needed for exception tracking
details:
main annoyance are vmState methods (in state.nim) which potentially
throw a base level Exception (a proc would only throws CatchableError)
* split p2p/chain into sub-modules and fix exception annotations
why:
make space for implementing PoA stuff
* provide over-loadable Clique PRNG
why:
There is a PRNG provided for generating reproducible number sequences.
The functions which employ the PRNG to generate time slots were ported
ported from the go-implementation. They are currently unused.
* implement trusted signer assembly in p2p/chain.persistBlocks()
details:
* PoA processing moved there at the end of a transaction. Currently,
there is no action (eg. transaction rollback) if this fails.
* The unit tests with staged blocks work ok. In particular, there should
be tests with to-be-rejected blocks.
* TODO: 1.Optimise throughput/cache handling; 2.Verify headers
* fix statement cast in pool.nim
* added table features to LRU cache
why:
Clique uses the LRU cache using a mixture of volatile online items
from the LRU cache and database checkpoints for hard synchronisation.
For performance, Clique needs more table like features.
details:
First, last, and query key added, as well as efficient random delete
added. Also key-item pair iterator added for debugging.
* re-factored LRU snapshot caching
why:
Caching was sub-optimal (aka. bonkers) in that it skipped over memory
caches in many cases and so mostly rebuild the snapshot from the
last on-disk checkpoint.
details;
The LRU snapshot toValue() handler has been moved into the module
clique_snapshot. This is for the fact that toValue() is not supposed
to see the whole LRU cache database. So there must be a higher layer
working with the the whole LRU cache and the on-disk checkpoint
database.
also:
some clean up
todo:
The code still assumes that the block headers are valid in itself. This
is particular important when an epoch header (aka re-sync header) is
processed as it must contain the PoA result of all previous headers.
So blocks need to be verified when they come in before used for PoA
processing.
* fix some snapshot cache fringe cases
why:
Must not index empty sequences in clique_snapshot module
* extract unused clique/mining support into separate file
why:
mining is currently unsupported by nimbus
* Replay first 51840 transactions from Goerli block chain
why:
Currently Goerli is loaded but the block headers are not verified.
Replaying allows real data PoA development.
details:
Simple stupid gzipped dump/undump layer for debugging based on
the zlib module (no nim-faststream support.)
This is a replay running against p2p/chain.persistBlocks() where
the data were captured from.
* prepare stubs for PoA engine
* split executor source into sup-modules
why:
make room for updates, clique integration should go into
executor/update_poastate.nim
* Simplify p2p/executor.processBlock() function prototype
why:
vmState argument always wraps basicChainDB
* split processBlock() into sub-functions
why:
isolate the part where it will support clique/poa
* provided additional processTransaction() function prototype without _fork_ argument
why:
with the exception of some tests, the _fork_ argument is always derived
from the other prototype argument _vmState_
details:
similar situation with makeReceipt()
* provide new processBlock() version explicitly supporting PoA
details:
The new processBlock() version supporting PoA is the general one also
supporting non-PoA networks, it needs an additional _Clique_ descriptor
function argument for PoA state (if any.)
The old processBlock() function without the _Clique_ descriptor argument
retorns an error on PoA networgs (e.g. Goerli.)
* re-implemented Clique descriptor as _ref object_
why:
gives more flexibility when moving around the descriptor object
details:
also cleaned up a bit the clique sources
* comments for clarifying handling of Clique/PoA state descriptor
* continue importing rlp blocks
why:
a chain of blocks to be imported might have legit blocks
after rejected blocks
details:
import loop only stops if the import list is exhausted or if there
was a decoding error. this adds another four to the count of successful
no-hive tests.
* verify DAO marked extra data field in block header
why:
was ignored, scores another two no-hive tests
* verify minimum required difficulty in header validator
why:
two more nohive tests to succeed
details:
* subsumed extended header tests under validateKinship() and renamed it
more appropriately validateHeaderAndKinship()
* enhanced readability of p2p/chain.nim
* cleaned up test_blockchain_json.nim
* verify positive gasUsed unless no transactions
why:
solves another to nohive tests
details:
straightened test_blockchain_json chech so there is no unconditional
rejection anymore (based on the input test scenario)
why:
some handy features were intended to support the unit test from
the clique/clique_test.go source (the other one is from
clique/snapshot_test.go.)
as this test cannot realistically be implemented without the full
api (includes mining support), it is left as that
The precompile fixture tests (`test_precompiles.nim`) are now incompatible with
ENABLE_EVMC=1, because `noTransfer` does not work with the new EVMC path.
This will start working again after the host/EVM context rework (needed for
other reasons anyway), but for now disable these tests so that other work can
continue.

so it's useful for our code to match the terms used in later EIP specs and
testsuite entries.
This change is straightforward, and is a prerequisite for patches to come that
do things with the `selfDestruct` fields.

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.

why:
previously, table data were stored with the table iterator. while
loading a table with permuted entries will always reconstruct equivalent
tables (in the sense of `==`), serialisation data are not comparable.
this patch produces always the same serialised data for equivalent
tables.
why:
source-local unit tests would hardly be triggered by github CI as rightly
criticised with the last patch.
details:
source-local unit tests have been moved to tests folder.
this version also contains rlp serialisation code so rlp encode/decode
will apply tranparently. this is not needed in p2p/validate but will be
useful with the clique protocol.
after EIP2718/EIP2930, we have additional fields:
type AccessTuple {
address: Address!
storageKeys : [Bytes32!]
}
type Transaction {
r: BigInt!
s: BigInt!
v: BigInt!
# Envelope transaction support
type: Int
accessList: [AccessTuple!]
}
close#606
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.
now test_blockchain_json is using block validation code
from p2p/executor.nim instead of using it's own
block validation code.
this will reduce maintenance cost and fixes#592.
instead of using it's own blockNumber to Fork calculation,
we switch to ChainConfig to Fork to ensure smooth transition
when using common block validator.
instead of using stdlib/json, now we switch to json_serialization
the result is much tidier code and more robust when parsing
optional fields.
fixes#635
Move the EVM setup and call in precompile tests to `fixtureCallEvm` in
`call_evm`. Extra return values needed for testing are returned specially, and
the convention for reporting gas used is changed to match `asmCallEvm`.
Although the precompile tests used `execPrecompiles` before, `executeOpcodes`
does perfectly well as a substitute, allowing `fixtureCallEvm` to be shared.
_Significantly, this patch also makes `Computation` more or less an internal
type of the EVM now._
Nothing outside the EVM (except `call_evm`) needs access any more to
`Computation`, `execComputation`, `executeOpcodes` or `execPrecompiles`.
Many imports can be trimmed, some files removed, and EVMC is much closer.
(As a bonus, the functions in `call_evm` reveal what capabilities parts of the
program have needed over time, makes certain bugs and inconsistencies clearer,
and suggests how to refactor into a more useful shared entry point.)

Move the EVM setup and call in fixtures "vm json tests" to new function
`fixtureCallEvm` in `call_evm`. Extra return values needed for testing are
returned specially.
This entry point is different from all other `..CallEvm` type functions,
because it uses `executeOpcodes` instead of `execComputation`, so it doesn't
update the account balance or nonce on entry and exit from the EVM.
The new code is a bit redundant and simplistic intentionally, as the purpose is
to move functionality to `call_evm` with high confidence nothing really
changed. The calls will be jointly refactored afterwards to merge differences.

In the `text_vm_json` ("fixtures") test code, there is another variant of
`rpcSetupComputation` and `txSetupComputation` with slightly different
paremeters. The similarity is obvious.
It is a special setup for testing, though, as it requires slightly different
parameters.

usually, there is always a sender around `getRecipient` call.
no need to recalculate sender. and more important, in some of
JSON-RPC/GraphQL call, the sender is come from `rpcCallData`,
not from `tx.getSender`. or in ohter situation when the tx is
an unsigned tx, without `r,s,v` fields to calculate sender.
Move the EVM setup and call in `macro_assembler` (`runVM`) entirely to new
function `asmCallEvm` in `call_evm`. Extra return values needed for
testing are returned specially from `asmCallEvm`.

The second `asmSetupComputation looks up state by block number and preceding
block number, modifies the first transaction with code for testing, and uses
some parts of that transaction to setup an an EVM test.

In the `macro_assembler` test code, `initComputation` is another variant of
`rpcSetupComputation` and `txSetupComputation` with slightly different
paremeters. The similarity is obvious.
It is a special setup for testing, though, as it requires a contract-creation
transaction for parameters, but sets up a `CALL` execution not `CREATE`.
Gather this into `call_evm`: `initComputation` -> `asmSetupComputation`.

disableParamFiltering() is called in test_all, so its ok when
called via test_all. but when test_generalstate_json or
test_blockchain_json is called independently, and we are using
command line switch, the default param handler from std/unittest
will interfere. hence need to disable it.
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.

In `vm_forks.nim`, `FkBerlin`'s value is (lowercase) `"berlin"`.
Another example of using lowercase in similar code:
`constantinople` in `test_op_bit.nim`
