* Fix debug noise in `hashify()` for perfectly normal situation
why:
Was previously considered a fixable error
* Fix test sample file names
why:
The larger test file `goerli68161.txt.gz` is already in the local
archive. So there is no need to use the smaller one from the external
repo.
* Activate `accounts_cache` module from `db/ledger`
why:
A copy of the original `accounts_cache.nim` source to be integrated
into the `Ledger` module wrapper which allows to switch between
different `accounts_cache` implementations unser tha same API.
details:
At a later state, the `db/accounts_cache.nim` wrapper will be
removed so that there is only one access to that module via
`db/ledger/accounts_cache.nim`.
* Fix copyright headers in source code
* Aristo: Provide key-value list signature calculator
detail:
Simple wrappers around `Aristo` core functionality
* Update new API for `CoreDb`
details:
+ Renamed new API functions `contains()` => `hasKey()` or `hasPath()`
which disables the `in` operator on non-boolean `contains()` functions
+ The functions `get()` and `fetch()` always return a not-found error if
there is no item, available. The new functions `getOrEmpty()` and
`mergeOrEmpty()` return an an empty `Blob` if there is no such key
found.
* Rewrite `core_apps.nim` using new API from `CoreDb`
* Use `Aristo` functionality for calculating Merkle signatures
details:
For debugging, the `VerifyAristoForMerkleRootCalc` can be set so
that `Aristo` results will be verified against the legacy versions.
* Provide general interface for Merkle signing key-value tables
details:
Export `Aristo` wrappers
* Activate `CoreDb` tests
why:
Now, API seems to be stable enough for general tests.
* Update `toHex()` usage
why:
Byteutils' `toHex()` is superior to `toSeq.mapIt(it.toHex(2)).join`
* Split `aristo_transcode` => `aristo_serialise` + `aristo_blobify`
why:
+ Different modules for different purposes
+ `aristo_serialise`: RLP encoding/decoding
+ `aristo_blobify`: Aristo database encoding/decoding
* Compacted representation of small nodes' links instead of Keccak hashes
why:
Ethereum MPTs use Keccak hashes as node links if the size of an RLP
encoded node is at least 32 bytes. Otherwise, the RLP encoded node
value is used as a pseudo node link (rather than a hash.) Such a node
is nor stored on key-value database. Rather the RLP encoded node value
is stored instead of a lode link in a parent node instead. Only for
the root hash, the top level node is always referred to by the hash.
This feature needed an abstraction of the `HashKey` object which is now
either a hash or a blob of length at most 31 bytes. This leaves two
ways of representing an empty/void `HashKey` type, either as an empty
blob of zero length, or the hash of an empty blob.
* Update `CoreDb` interface (mainly reducing logger noise)
* Fix copyright years (to make `Lint` happy)
* Rename FilterID => QueueID
why:
The current usage does not identify a particular filter but uses it as
storage tag to manage it on the database (to be organised in a set of
FIFOs or queues.)
* Split `aristo_filter` source into sub-files
why:
Make space for filter management API
* Store filter queue IDs in pairs on the backend
why:
Any pair will will describe a FIFO accessed by bottom/top IDs
* Reorg some source file names
why:
The "aristo_" prefix for make local/private files is tedious to
use, so removed.
* Implement filter slot scheduler
details:
Filters will be stored on the database on cascaded FIFOs. When a FIFO
queue is full, some filter items are bundled together and stored on the
next FIFO.
* Misc fixes
detail:
* Fix de-serialisation for account leafs
* Update node recovery from unit tests
* Remove `LegacyAccount` from `PayloadRef` object
why:
Legacy accounts use a hash key as storage root which is detrimental
to the working of the Aristo database which uses a vertex ID.
* Dissolve `hashify_helper` into `aristo_utils` and `aristo_transcode`
why:
Functions are of general interest so they should live in first level
code files.
* Added left/right iterators over leaf nodes
* Some helper/wrapper functions that might be useful
why:
For the main tree with root vertex ID 1, the leaf nodes hold the
account data. These accounts may link to sub trees the storage root
node ID of which must be registered here. There is no reverse key
lookup on the backend.
note:
These definitions are experimental. Also, there are some tests missing
for validating Payload data conversions.
* Fix vertex ID generator state handling for rocksdb backend
why:
* Key error in walk iterator
* Needs to be loaded when opening the database
* Use non-zero sub-table prefixes for rocksdb
why:
Handy for debugging
* Fix error code for missing key on rocksdb backend
why:
Previously returned `VOID_HASH_KEY` rather than `GetKeyNotFound`
* Explicitly copy vertex data between internal table and function/result argument
why:
Function argument or return reference may still refer to the same data
object.
* Updated error symbols
why:
Error symbol names for the hike module now start with the prefix `Hike`.
* Write back modified branch node into local top layer cache
why:
With the backend available, the source of the branch node references
might not be the top layer cache. So any change must be explicitely
recorded.
* Fix include
why:
Eth67 not default yet so that got missed
* Rename `LeafKey` => `LeafTie`
why:
Name is a pen picture of what this object is for. Also, it avoids the
ubiquitous term `key`.
* Provided `getOrVoid()` wrapper for `getOrDefault()`
also:
Provide `isValid()` syntactic sugar for `.isNil.not`, `!= 0` etc.
Reorg descriptor source, split into sub-sources
* Bundled `NodeKey` objects with root ID and called it `HashLabel`
why:
`NodeKey` (aka repurposed Hash265) objects are unique only within a
particular sub-trie (e.g. storage slots) which are kept separated
(i.e non-interleaved) by design. This is not applied to the backend
as the map VertexID->NodeKey labelling the nodes needs not be injective.
For the in-memory database (transaction) layers, the injective map
VertexID->(VertexID,NodeKey) is used where the first field of the image
tuple is the root ID of the sub-trie the `NodeKey` object is valid. So
identical storage tries for different accounts can be represented.
* Cosmetics, renamed fields (eVtx, bVtx) -> (eVid, bVid)
* Multilayered delta architecture for Aristo DB
details:
Any VertexID or data retrieval needs to go down the rabbit hole and
fetch/get/manipulate the bottom layer -- even without explicit
backend.
* Direct reference to backend from top-level layer
why:
Some services as the vid management needs to be synchronised among all
layers. So access is optimised.
