The existing vmState tracing is plugged into chronicles, at the TRACE
level, to facilitate state test debugging.
Some useful chronicles defines are added to "tests/nim.cfg" to simplify
the compile-and-run command for individual tests.
- skipped the tests in allowedFailInCurrentBuild()
- replaced doAssert() with check() in testFixtureIndexes() so we can see
both hash values on failure
- checking filename extension for JSON tests to avoid editor swap files
- replaced the duplicated block values in the main net's ChainConfig
with values from forkBlocks
- allowed overriding the current fork in computations, because the old
strategy of only looking at the block number doesn't work with JSON tests
where the block number is usually 1
- explicitly pass the fork to gasCosts() and use it for conditional cost
calculation
- fixed a logic error in the CREATE opcode
- fixed VM selection based on current fork in updateOpcodeExec()
- single point of control for supported forks in tests (just one fork, at the
moment)
- 44 new test failures (that were probably passing for the wrong reasons)
Also implements transactional block persistence. Two issues
in the transaction processing code have been discovered that
might affect other usages such as the CALL instruction.
The main fix gets us past block 49000.
You may need to clean up your database.
* checkpoint where refactoring and calling from GST runner doesn't break anything
* 14 new GSTs pass by refactoring contract creation out of p2p/chain and using from GST test runner
* 2 of 14 new tests fail in 32-bit builds
* switch from CREATE_CONTRACT_ADDRESS to isContractCreation
* switch another CREATE_CONTRACT_ADDRESS to isContactCreation
* partly fix state_db getCode to get 20 new working GeneralStateTests; remove 2 functions which existed as workarounds; switch all remaining setBalance calls in GeneralStateTestRunner to subBalance (addBalance calls already changed)
* two of the 20 new tests don't work in 32-bit builds
* fix 32-bit issue in AppVeyor
* allow another dozen or so GeneralStateTest fixtures which work on 64-bit, but not on 32-bit platforms, to safely-fail, but demarcate them separately to facilitate debugging
* steal fa672600eb from @coffeepots fix-int32-high-zero branch
