Portal beacon LC sync can be started now from a provided trusted
block root or, in case it has been running before, from a
previously verified and stored LC bootstrap.
This required altering the the beacon db on how the bootstraps
are stored.
These create only confusion as if they are actual different types
and it is within their usage already clear what they are about
because of the name of the variable or the function.
They are also nowhere aliased like this in any of the Portal
specification.
* Create separate portal rpc handlers for each sub-network.
* Remove random gossip from history and state networks.
* Move shared portal rpc endpoints into common handler.
* Use enum instead of network string.
* bump nimbus-build-system to use Nim v2.0.10
* 2.0.10 fixes
* fluffy linting
* make trivial change which should trigger whole-nimbus+fluffy rebuild/ci
* Nim v2.0.10 chronicles.error/macros.error ambiguity workaround
* another contentType enum specifier
* fluffy linting
* Fix eth/common & web3 related deprecation warnings for fluffy
This commit uses the new types in the new eth/common/ structure
to remove deprecation warnings.
It is however more than just a mass replace as also all places
where eth/common or eth/common/eth_types or eth/common/eth_types_rlp
got imported have been revised and adjusted to a better per submodule
based import.
There are still a bunch of toMDigest deprecation warnings but that
convertor is not needed for fluffy code anymore so in theory it
should not be used (bug?). It seems to still get imported via export
leaks ffrom imported nimbus code I think.
* Address review comments
* Remove two more unused eth/common imports
* fix: rpc can't serve blocks in db
* shift db access to forkedchainref
* cleanup
* kurtosis test fix, should fail + eth_getTransactionReceipt
* remove kurtosis not + cleanup
* alter CI check to pass
* optimize impl
* cleanup
* fix loop case
* Rename `base` -> `coupler`, `B` -> `C`
why:
Glossary: The jargon `base` is used for the `base state` block number
which can be smaller than what is now the `coupler`.
* Rename `global state` -> `base`, `T` -> `B`
why:
See glossary
* Rename `final` -> `end`, `F` -> `E`
why:
See glossary. Previously, `final` denoted some finalised block but not
`the finalised` block from the glossary (which is maximal.)
* Properly name finalised block as such, rename `Z` -> `F`
why:
See glossary
* Rename `least` -> `dangling`, `L` -> `D`
* Metrics update (variables not covered yet)
* Docu update and corrections
* Logger updates
* Remove obsolete `skeleton*Key` kvt columns from `storage_types` module
* Remove `--sync-mode` option from nimbus config
why:
Currently there is only one sync mode available.
* Rename `flare` -> `beacon`, but not base module folder and nim source
why:
The name `flare` was used do designate an alternative `beacon` mode that.
Leaving the base folder and source as-is for a moment, makes it easier
to read change diffs.
* Rename `flare` base module folder and nim source: `flare` -> `beacon`
* Dissolve legacy `sync/types.nim` into `*/eth/eth_types.nim`
* Flare sync: Simplify scheduler and remove `runSingle()` method
why:
`runSingle()` is not used anymore (main purpose was for negotiating
best headers in legacy full sync.)
Also, `runMulti()` was renamed `runPeer()`
* Flare sync: Move `chain` field from `sync_desc` -> `worker_desc`
* Flare sync: Remove handler descriptor lateral reference
why:
Not used anymore. It enabled to turn on/off eth handler activity with
regards to the sync state, i.e.from with in the sync worker.
* Flare sync: Update `Hash256` and other deprecated `std/eth` symbols
* Protocols: Update `Hash256` and other deprecated `std/eth` symbols
* Eth handler: Update `Hash256` and other deprecated `std/eth` symbols
* Update flare TODO
* Remove redundant `sync/type` import
why:
The import module `type` has been removed
* Remove duplicate implementation
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.
