* new: time_helper, types
* new: path_desc
* new: base_desc
* Re-organised objects inheritance
why:
Previous code used macros to instantiate opaque object references. This
has been re-implemented with OO inheritance based logic.
* Normalised trace macros
* Using distinct types for Hash256 aliases
why:
Better control of the meaning of the hashes, all or the same format
caveat:
The protocol handler DSL used by eth66.nim and snap1.nim uses the
underlying type Hash256 and cannot handle the distinct alias in
rlp and chronicles/log macros. So Hash256 is used directly (does
not change readability as the type is clear by parameter names.)
* 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
why:
Accidentally wrapped into waitFor() directive with reviving jl/sync
branch.
also:
Decorate eth/66 and snap/1 protocol trace messages with protocol
type and version
* Squashed snap-sync-preview patch
why:
Providing end results makes it easier to have an overview.
Collected patch set comments are available as nimbus/sync/ChangeLog.md
in chronological order, oldest first.
* Removed some cruft and obsolete imports, normalised logging
Allow also concurrent neighborhood gossip jobs when seeding data
into the network.
Update Grafana dashboard for two additional metrics regarding
lookups in neighborhood gossip.
* 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
new hive features introduces breaking changes we need to address:
- expose engine api port 8551 in docker script
- export enode.sh file to hive-bin folder
- add terminalTotalDifficulty to mapper.jq
- remove `waitFor` and store async result in Future[T] for future execution
instead of blocking other services from starting and running.
This also fixes very long delay Ctrl-C issue. Fixes#585
- always create sealing engine instance even though there is no
signer. other services such engine api need it.
if engine api receive forkChoiceUpdated and turn out
reorg happened, sealing engine must update txpool
head.
so in the next iteration when the txpool asked to
produce a fresh block, it will produce it in the
current 'correct' chain and abandon side chain.
* Improvements to the propagation and seeding of data
- Use a lookup for nodes selection in neighborhoodGossip
- Rework populate db code and add `propagateBlockHistoryDb` call
and portal_history__propagateBlock json-rpc call
- Small adjustment to blockwalk
* Avoid storing out-of-range data in the propagate db calls
Currently re-using http connections for the json-rpc requests
seems to slow down the requests considerably. Avoid this by
forcing a close after each requests in the blockwalk tool.
* 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
result.gasPrice = baseFee + min(result.maxPriorityFee, result.maxFee - baseFee)
cannot be simplified into
result.gasPrice = min(result.maxPriorityFee + baseFee, result.maxFee)
the expression is not commutative
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.
