* 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)
* Kvt: Implemented multi-descriptor access on the same backend
why:
This behaviour mirrors the one of Aristo and can be used for
simultaneous transactions on Aristo + Kvt
* Kvt: Update database iterators
why:
Forgot to run on the top layer first
* Kvt: Misc fixes
* Aristo, use `openArray[byte]` rather than `Blob` in prototype
* Aristo, by default hashify right after cloning descriptor
why:
Typically, a completed descriptor is expected after cloning. Hashing
can be suppressed by argument flag.
* Aristo provides `replicate()` iterator, similar to legacy `replicate()`
* Aristo API fixes and updates
* CoreDB: Rename `legacy_persistent` => `legacy_rocksdb`
why:
More systematic, will be in line with Aristo DB which might have
more than one persistent backends
* CoreDB: Prettify API sources
why:
Better to read and maintain
details:
Annotating with custom pragmas which cleans up the prototypes
* CoreDB: Update MPT/put() prototype allowing `CatchableError`
why:
Will be needed for Aristo API (legacy is OK with `RlpError`)
* Nimbus folder environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `nimbus` sub-folder.
* The `nimbus` program does not compile yet as it needs the updates
in the parallel `stateless` sub-folder.
* Stateless environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `stateless` sub-folder.
* The `nimbus` program compiles now.
* Premix environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `premix` sub-folder.
* Fluffy environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `fluffy` sub-folder.
* Tools environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `tools` sub-folder.
* Nodocker environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the
`hive_integration/nodocker` sub-folder.
* Tests environment update
details:
* Integrated `CoreDbRef` for the sources in the `tests` sub-folder.
* The unit tests compile and run cleanly now.
* Generalise `CoreDbRef` to any `select_backend` supported database
why:
Generalisation was just missed due to overcoming some compiler oddity
which was tied to rocksdb for testing.
* Suppress compiler warning for `newChainDB()`
why:
Warning was added to this function which must be wrapped so that
any `CatchableError` is re-raised as `Defect`.
* Split off persistent `CoreDbRef` constructor into separate file
why:
This allows to compile a memory only database version without linking
the backend library.
* Use memory `CoreDbRef` database by default
detail:
Persistent DB constructor needs to import `db/core_db/persistent
why:
Most tests use memory DB anyway. This avoids linking `-lrocksdb` or
any other backend by default.
* fix `toLegacyBackend()` availability check
why:
got garbled after memory/persistent split.
* Clarify raw access to MPT for snap sync handler
why:
Logically, `kvt` is not the raw access for the hexary trie (although
this holds for the legacy database)
* Part of EIP-4895: add withdrawals processing to block processing.
* Refactoring: extracted the engine API handler bodies into procs.
Intending to implement the V2 versions next. (I need the bodies to be
in separate procs so that multiple versions can use them.)
* Working on Engine API changes for Shanghai.
* Updated nim-web3, resolved ambiguity in Hash256 type.
* Updated nim-eth3 to point to master, now that I've merged that.
* I'm confused about what's going on with engine_client.
But let's try resolving this Hash256 ambiguity.
* Still trying to fix this conflict with the Hash256 types.
* Does this work now that nimbus-eth2 has been updated?
* Corrected blockValue in getPayload responses back to UInt256.
c834f67a37
* Working on getting the withdrawals-related tests to pass.
* Fixing more of those Hash256 ambiguities.
(I'm not sure why the nim-web3 library introduced a conflicting type
named Hash256, but right now I just want to get this code to compile again.)
* Bumped a couple of libraries to fix some error messages.
* Needed to get "make fluffy-tools" to pass, too.
* Getting "make nimbus_verified_proxy" to build.
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 5, common
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 6, db, rpc, utils
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 7, randomly collected source files
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 8, assorted tests
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Clique update
why:
More impossible exceptions (undoes temporary fix from previous PR)
