enhancements:
- scalar `Float` now have proper validation
- seqs are not copied anymore in some places, but using system.move
bugfixes:
- `removeWhitespaces` in test_common no longer eat white spaces
from quoted string.

new features:
- add custom instrument infrastructure
- add Query Complexity instrumen
trying Jacek suggestion in #591, I added nat setting to
nimbus-eth1 hive shell script. visible difference after adding
this flag is the nat library not complaining about
"the gateway does not support nat-pmp" anymore.
but the slow startup time described in #591 is yet to be measured
again, although I already see improvement when executing
ethereum/consensus category in hive.
- enhancements:
- response stream reform:
- allow for more response stream implementation easily
- features:
- add NodeRespStream:
- return AST produced by execution engine instead of serialize
it into json or something else
- add store flag to parseSchema and parseQuery family:
- with this additional flag, both query and schema can be marked
with stored flag
- purge also become selective when purging queries
- dog fooding the introspection schema loader using this flag
bugfixes:
- next fields will continue execution if there is error:
- if one field failed, it will not terminate subsequent fields
execution, but errors are kept.
- propagate inner field error to it's parent
- Since Non-Null type fields cannot be null, field errors are propagated to be
handled by the parent field. If the parent field may be null then it resolves
to null, otherwise if it is a Non-Null type, the field error is further
propagated to it’s parent field.
- If a List type wraps a Non-Null type, and one of the elements of that list
resolves to null, then the entire list must resolve to null. If the List type
is also wrapped in a Non-Null, the field error continues to propagate upwards.
- If all fields from the root of the request to the source of the field error
return Non-Null types, then the "data" entry in the response should be null.
although this is not part of EIP 1767
but the hive test cases derived from besu
test cases contains this.
we add this now to pass more test hive.graphql cases
Move the EVM setup and call in precompile tests to `fixtureCallEvm` in
`call_evm`. Extra return values needed for testing are returned specially, and
the convention for reporting gas used is changed to match `asmCallEvm`.
Although the precompile tests used `execPrecompiles` before, `executeOpcodes`
does perfectly well as a substitute, allowing `fixtureCallEvm` to be shared.
_Significantly, this patch also makes `Computation` more or less an internal
type of the EVM now._
Nothing outside the EVM (except `call_evm`) needs access any more to
`Computation`, `execComputation`, `executeOpcodes` or `execPrecompiles`.
Many imports can be trimmed, some files removed, and EVMC is much closer.
(As a bonus, the functions in `call_evm` reveal what capabilities parts of the
program have needed over time, makes certain bugs and inconsistencies clearer,
and suggests how to refactor into a more useful shared entry point.)

Allow the fork to be specified consistently through an `option[Fork]` instead
of varying inconsistencies depending on which call. When fork is not
specified, the `BaseVMState` code picks the correct fork by default for the
block number and chain.
This change actually deletes code, because a number of functions (RPC etc) had
redundant code to pick the fork, which always resolved to same as default.

Move the EVM setup and call in fixtures "vm json tests" to new function
`fixtureCallEvm` in `call_evm`. Extra return values needed for testing are
returned specially.
This entry point is different from all other `..CallEvm` type functions,
because it uses `executeOpcodes` instead of `execComputation`, so it doesn't
update the account balance or nonce on entry and exit from the EVM.
The new code is a bit redundant and simplistic intentionally, as the purpose is
to move functionality to `call_evm` with high confidence nothing really
changed. The calls will be jointly refactored afterwards to merge differences.

not from `tx.getSender`. or in ohter situation when the tx is
an unsigned tx, without `r,s,v` fields to calculate sender.

The point of the `call_vm` exercise is to allow `Computation` to become an
internal type of the EVM, not used as API by the rest of the program. So
`rpcSetupComputation` should be private. It was left exported by mistake.

Split out and move the EVM setup and call in `processTransaction` to
`call_evm`. This is the last part of the main program which calls the EVM
to be moved. (There's still test code.)
While we're here, move the EIP2929 access list setup too, as the similarity
to `rpcInitialAccessListEIP2929` is obvious.

It's possible for `tx.value` in the transaction to have a deliberately
constructed large 256-bit value, such that adding `gasLimit * gasPrice` to it
overflows to a small value.
Prior to this patch, the code would allow such a transaction to pass
validation, even though such a large transfer cannot be valid.

Change `rpcEstimateGas` to setup and execute a computation directly, in a
similar way to `rpcDoCall` and `rpcMakeCall`, instead of constructing a fake
transaction and then validating it.
This patch does not (or should not) change any behaviour.
Although this looks a bit messy as it duplicates parts of `validateTransaction`
and `processTransaction`, proc names have been used to hopefully keep the
meanings clear, and it's just a stepping stone as those transaction functions
will be changed next. Also the behaviour of RPC `estimateGas` may not be
correct (although this patch is careful not to change it), so it's good to make
it explicit so we can see how it differs from other RPCs.
Doing this change exposed some interesting behaviour differences between the
`call` RPC and `estimateGas` RPC, which may be bugs, or may be intentional.
These differences are now obvious and explicit.
The unclear areas are not well documented by any of the clients, even Infura
which says a bit more than the others. So to find out if they are intended,
we'll have to run tests against other Ethereum services.
Guessing, on the face of it, it looks likely that RPC `call` should:
- Setup EIP2929 access lists
- Account for intrinsic gas (maybe not because zero-gas transactions are ok)
And it looks likely that RPC `estimateGas` should:
- Not return zero when an account has insufficient balance
- Maybe use a different gas cost estimate when one isn't supplied in the RPC
Signed-off-by: Jamie Lokier <jamie@shareable.org>
The RPC `estimateGas` behaves differently from RPC `call` in a number of ways.
These differences may be bugs due to `rpcEstimateGas` calling the EVM in a very
different way than `rpcDoCall`, or they may be intentional. To be sure, we'll
need to test behaviour with Geth, Infura etc to find out (their documentation
isn't enough.) For now, though, we'll keep the same behaviour as we always had.
`rpcEstimateGas` cannot use `rpcSetupComputation` as it is, because
`estimateGas` accounts for "intrinsic gas", and `call` does not.
This patch changes `rpcSetupComputation` to accomodate both behaviours.

`makeCall` used by GraphQL is another way to setup and call the EVM.

`estimateGas` used by JSON-RPC is another way to setup and call the EVM,
also used by GraphQL. Move it to `transaction/call_evm`.
This function has too much direct knowledge of details that shouldn't be used
outside transaction handling code, details we need to change when changing the
db and transaction memory layer.
Moving this one exposed quite a bit of abstraction leakage, as it calls
directly to the hexary trie db around `processTransaction`.
It looks like the _intended_ functionality of `estimateGas` is similar to
`rpcDoCall` with the only real difference being to not store the final state.
It looks like the extra stuff in `estimateGas` compared with `doCall` is a
messy workaround for computation not exposing the right API ("don't save final
state") for RPC to use.

Start gathering the functions that call the EVM into one place,
`transaction/call_evm.nim`.
This is first of a series of changes to gather all ways the EVM is called to
one place. Duplicate, slightly different setup functions have accumulated over
time, each with some knowledge of EVM internals. When they are brought
together, these methods will be changed to use a single entry point to the EVM,
allowing the entry point to be refactored, EVMC to be completed, and async
concurrency to be implemented on top. This also simplifies the callers.
First, a helper function used by RPC and GraphQL to make EVM calls without
permanently modifying the account state. `setupComputation` ->
`rpcSetupComputation`.
