* aristo: fork support via layers/txframes
This change reorganises how the database is accessed: instead holding a
"current frame" in the database object, a dag of frames is created based
on the "base frame" held in `AristoDbRef` and all database access
happens through this frame, which can be thought of as a consistent
point-in-time snapshot of the database based on a particular fork of the
chain.
In the code, "frame", "transaction" and "layer" is used to denote more
or less the same thing: a dag of stacked changes backed by the on-disk
database.
Although this is not a requirement, in practice each frame holds the
change set of a single block - as such, the frame and its ancestors
leading up to the on-disk state represents the state of the database
after that block has been applied.
"committing" means merging the changes to its parent frame so that the
difference between them is lost and only the cumulative changes remain -
this facility enables frames to be combined arbitrarily wherever they
are in the dag.
In particular, it becomes possible to consolidate a set of changes near
the base of the dag and commit those to disk without having to re-do the
in-memory frames built on top of them - this is useful for "flattening"
a set of changes during a base update and sending those to storage
without having to perform a block replay on top.
Looking at abstractions, a side effect of this change is that the KVT
and Aristo are brought closer together by considering them to be part of
the "same" atomic transaction set - the way the code gets organised,
applying a block and saving it to the kvt happens in the same "logical"
frame - therefore, discarding the frame discards both the aristo and kvt
changes at the same time - likewise, they are persisted to disk together
- this makes reasoning about the database somewhat easier but has the
downside of increased memory usage, something that perhaps will need
addressing in the future.
Because the code reasons more strictly about frames and the state of the
persisted database, it also makes it more visible where ForkedChain
should be used and where it is still missing - in particular, frames
represent a single branch of history while forkedchain manages multiple
parallel forks - user-facing services such as the RPC should use the
latter, ie until it has been finalized, a getBlock request should
consider all forks and not just the blocks in the canonical head branch.
Another advantage of this approach is that `AristoDbRef` conceptually
becomes more simple - removing its tracking of the "current" transaction
stack simplifies reasoning about what can go wrong since this state now
has to be passed around in the form of `AristoTxRef` - as such, many of
the tests and facilities in the code that were dealing with "stack
inconsistency" are now structurally prevented from happening. The test
suite will need significant refactoring after this change.
Once this change has been merged, there are several follow-ups to do:
* there's no mechanism for keeping frames up to date as they get
committed or rolled back - TODO
* naming is confused - many names for the same thing for legacy reason
* forkedchain support is still missing in lots of code
* clean up redundant logic based on previous designs - in particular the
debug and introspection code no longer makes sense
* the way change sets are stored will probably need revisiting - because
it's a stack of changes where each frame must be interrogated to find an
on-disk value, with a base distance of 128 we'll at minimum have to
perform 128 frame lookups for *every* database interaction - regardless,
the "dag-like" nature will stay
* dispose and commit are poorly defined and perhaps redundant - in
theory, one could simply let the GC collect abandoned frames etc, though
it's likely an explicit mechanism will remain useful, so they stay for
now
More about the changes:
* `AristoDbRef` gains a `txRef` field (todo: rename) that "more or less"
corresponds to the old `balancer` field
* `AristoDbRef.stack` is gone - instead, there's a chain of
`AristoTxRef` objects that hold their respective "layer" which has the
actual changes
* No more reasoning about "top" and "stack" - instead, each
`AristoTxRef` can be a "head" that "more or less" corresponds to the old
single-history `top` notion and its stack
* `level` still represents "distance to base" - it's computed from the
parent chain instead of being stored
* one has to be careful not to use frames where forkedchain was intended
- layers are only for a single branch of history!

Thanks to @holiman of goevmlab for his fuzzer.
Similar with Blake2b precompile regression #2919.
When error, the precompile should not return any output.
In block processing, depending on the complexity of a transaction and
hotness of caches etc, signature checking can actually make up the
majority of time needed to process a transaction (60% observed in some
randomly sampled block ranges).
Fortunately, this is a task that trivially can be offloaded to a task
pool similar to how nimbus-eth2 does it.
This PR introduces taskpools in the most simple way possible, by
performing signature checking concurrently with other TX processing,
assigning a taskpool task per TX effectively.
With this little trick, we're in gigagas land 🎉 on my laptop!
```
INF 2024-12-10 21:05:35.170+01:00 Imported blocks
blockNumber=3874817 b... mgps=1222.707 ...
```
Tests don't use the taskpool for now because it needs manual cleanup and
we don't have a good mechanism in place. Future PR:s should address this
by creating a common shutdown sequence that also closes and cleans up
other resources like the DB.

* Inline gas cost/instruction fetching
These make up 5:ish % of EVM execution time - even though they're
trivial they end up not being inlined - this little change gives a
practically free perf boost ;)
Also unify the style of creating the output to `setLen`..
* avoid a few more unnecessary seq allocations
* Fixes related to Prague execution requests
Turn out the specs are changed:
- WITHDRAWAL_REQUEST_ADDRESS -> WITHDRAWAL_QUEUE_ADDRESS
- CONSOLIDATION_REQUEST_ADDRESS -> CONSOLIDATION_QUEUE_ADDRESS
- DEPOSIT_CONTRACT_ADDRESS -> only mainnet
- depositContractAddress can be configurable
Also fix bugs related to t8n tool
* Fix for evmc
* switch to Nim v2.0.12
* fix LruCache capitalization for styleCheck
* KzgProof/KzgCommitment for styleCheck
* TxEip4844 for styleCheck
* styleCheck issues in nimbus/beacon/payload_conv.nim
* ENode for styleCheck
* isOk for styleCheck
* some more styleCheck fixes
* more styleCheck fixes

* prefer the spec-derived name where possible
* don't pass stateRoot to LedgerRef and friends (it doesn't do anything)
* add deprecation warning in graphql - it needs updating to use
forkedchain instead
* partial commit
* fixes
* remove converters too
* revert changes on nimbus_verified_proxy
* revert changes in converter
* revert changes(re-xport) in rpc_types
* update copyright year
* replace types in other binaries
* chain config bug
* fix rebase conflict imcomplete buffer
* fix more rebase buffers
* remove ditto types and converters
* fix the tests
* update copyright year
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.
* init style for Hash256
https://github.com/status-im/nim-eth/pull/733 updates `Hash256` to
become an array instead of an object - unfortunately, nim does not allow
constructing arrays with `name()`, so this PR changes it to `default`
which works with both.
* lint
* Use block number or timestamp to determine fork rules
Avoid confusion raised by `forkGTE` usage where block informations are present.
* Get rid of forkGTE
* Simplify txpool baseFeeGet
- Avoid using toEVMFork because we are not in EVM
- Rename `isLondon` to `isLondonOrLater`
* Remove timestamp from isLondonOrLater
