* Aristo: Provide descriptor fork based on search in transaction stack
details:
Try to find the tx that has a particular pair `(vertex-id,hash-key)`,
and by extension try filter and backend if the former fails.
* Cleanup & docu
* CoreDb+Aristo: Implement context re-position to earlier in-memory state
why:
It is a easy way to explore how there can be concurrent access to the
same backend storage DB with different view states. This one can access
an earlier state from the transaction stack.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Populate tracer stubs with real functionality
* Update `tracer.nim` to new API
why:
Legacy API does not sufficiently support `Aristo`
* Fix logging problems in tracer
details:
Debug logging turned off by default
* Fix function prototypes
* Add Copyright header
* Add tables import
why:
For older compiler versions on CI
* CoreDb+Aristo: Fix handler code
* Aristo+Kvt: Remove cruft
* Aristo+Kvt: The function `forkTop()` always provides a single transaction
why:
Previously it provided a single squashed tx only if there were any. Now
it will provide a blind one if there were none.
* Fix Copyright header
* Fix 'value out of range' RangeDefect caused by large/expensive blocks/transactions during DOS period.
* Clear witness cache in AccountCache persist.
* Revert previous fix and force clear cache after processing each block.
* Revert clear cache in process block.
* CoreDb+Ledger: Update logging
why:
Use symbol `api` rather than `ctx` because the latter will be used
as name for particular objects
* CoreDb: Remove cruft
* CoreDb: Remove `TxID` support
why:
It is nowhere used and ugly implemented. The upcoming context layer
will be a cleaner alternative to use, instead should this particular
functionality be needed.
* CoreDb: Rearrange base methods in source code for better reading
* CoreDb+Aristo: Update API closures for better reading & maintenance
* CoreDb: Implement context layer for MPT
why:
On `Aristo` the context layer allows to manage different views on
the same backend database. This is an abstraction of the legacy
hexary trie which can be localised on a particular root nose.
details:
The `ctx` context provides the state (equiv. to state root) of the
database for MPT and account descriptors.
* Fix Copyright headers
why:
Ignoring `nil` objects was handy for a while but eventually led to
lazy programming which in turn led to double destructor calls for
the rocks-db.
* Aristo+Kvt: Fix backend `dup()` function in api setup
why:
Backend object is subject to an inheritance cascade which was not
taken care of, before. Only the base object was duplicated.
* Kvt: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Adjust unit test for working with memory DB only
why:
This currently causes some memory corruption persumably in the
`libc` background layer.
* CoredDb+Kvt: Simplify API for KVT
why:
Simplified storage models (was over engineered) for better performance
and code maintenance.
* CoredDb+Aristo: Simplify API for `Aristo`
why:
Only single database state needed here. Accessing a similar state will
be implemented from outside this module using a context layer. This
gives better performance and improves code maintenance.
* Fix Copyright headers
* CoreDb: Turn off API tracking
why:
CI would ot go through. Was accidentally turned on.
* Add new RocksNamespaceRef type and remove backups and readonly support from RocksDb KvStore.
* Bump nim-rocksdb to fc2ba4a836b6b47ae1b17d1c45801c7e06585e19
* Fix tests.
* Fix copyright notice.
* Aristo: Remove cruft
* Prettifying profile statistics printing & source code cosmetics
* Aristo/Kvt: API tools update
* CoreDb: Corrections, mostly API related
* CoreDb: Changed the tracer `logDb()` result
why:
Only the key-value table is used from the logger database
* CoreDb: Update legacy tracer
why:
The `contains()` directive did not correspond to `0 < get().len`
also:
Copy `CoreDb` meta settings like `trackLegaApi`, `trackNewApi`, etc. to
overlay tracer descriptor
* CoreDb: Extend/update tracer API
why:
Get ready for accommodating `Aristo` tracer
* Fix missing import
why:
Some CI compilers might have (cached?) a different NIM patch level
* Ditto
* Aristo/Kvt: Provide function hooks APIs
why:
These APIs can be used for installing tracers, profiling functoinality,
and other niceties on the databases.
* Aristo: Provide optional API profiling
details:
It basically is a re-implementation of the `CoreDb` profiling
implementation
* Kvt: Provide optional API profiling similar to `Aristo`
* CoreDb: Re-implementing profiling using `aristo_profile`
* Ledger: Re-implementing profiling using `aristo_profile`
* CoreDb: Update unit tests for maintainability
* update copyright dates
* CoreDb: Provide default db backend symbols
why:
Handy for running `Aristo` against standard tests
note:
These defaults are currently set to legacy DB types. The must be
enabled manually in `db/core_db.nim`.
* Provide `Aristo` for macro assembler related tests
caveat:
Some tests use `initStorageTrie()` which lets `Aristo` bail out. The
test need to run on `distinct_ledgers` (or something like) rather than
`distinct_tries`.
* Tests: Misc modules that can run on `Aristo` as well
* NoHive: Module that can run on `Aristo` as well
* Fix copyright year
* ditto
* Aristo: Reorg `hashify()` using different schedule algorithm
why:
Directly calculating the search tree top down from the roots turns
out to be faster than using the cached structures left over by `merge()`
and `delete()`.
Time gains is short of 20%
* Aristo: Remove `lTab[]` leaf entry object type
why:
Not used anymore. It was previously needed to build the schedule for
`hashify()`.
* Aristo: Avoid unnecessary re-org of the vertex ID recycling list
why:
This list can become quite large so a heuristic is employed whether
it makes sense to re-org.
Also, re-org check is only done by `delete()` functions.
* Aristo: Remove key/reverse lookup table from tx layers
why:
It is ignored except for handling proof nodes and costs unnecessary
run time resources.
This feature was originally needed to accommodate the mental transition
from the legacy MPT to the `Aristo` trie :).
* Fix copyright year
* CoreDb: update test suite
* Aristo: Simplify reverse key map
why:
The reverse key map `pAmk: (root,key) -> {vid,..}` as been simplified to
`pAmk: key -> {vid,..}` as the state `root` domain argument is not used,
anymore
* Aristo: Remove `HashLabel` object type and replace it by `HashKey`
why:
The `HashLabel` object attaches a root hash to a hash key. This is
nowhere used, anymore.
* Fix copyright
* Aristo: Update schedule runner for `hashify()`
why:
Width-first schedule walker overlooked resolvable vertex and ended in
a deadlock situation
* CoreDb+Aristo: Update error code for fringe condition
* Ledger: Remove redundant extra MPT hashing statements
why:
These statement were used for troubleshooting
* CoreDb: Couch medicine for legacy DB backend
why:
MPT will occasionally enter inconsistent states after deletion, some
dirty fix is randomly added to mitgate that.
* Added procs to get and store block witness in db and add generate-witness cli flag.
* Completed initial implementation of block witness storage.
* Added test to verify witness is persisted to db after call to persistBlock.
* Update getBlockWitness to return witness using Result type.
* Make generate witness parameter hidden.
* CoreDb: Test module with additional sample selector cmd line options
* Aristo: Do not automatically remove a storage trie with the account
why:
This is an unnecessary side effect. Rather than using an automatism, a
a storage root must be deleted manually.
* Aristo: Can handle stale storage root vertex IDs as empty IDs.
why:
This is currently needed for the ledger API supporting both, a legacy
and the `Aristo` database backend.
This feature can be disabled at compile time by re-setting the
`LOOSE_STORAGE_TRIE_COUPLING` flag in the `aristo_constants` module.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Flush/delete storage trie when deleting account
why:
On either backend, a deleted account leave a dangling storage trie on
the database.
For consistency nn the legacy backend, storage tries must not be
deleted as they might be shared by several accounts whereas on `Aristo`
they are always unique.
* Update experimental rpc test to do further validation on proof responses.
* Enable zero value storage slots in the witness cache data so that proofs will be returned when a storage slot is updated to zero. Refactor and simplify implementation of getProofs endpoint.
* Improve test validation.
* Minor fixes and added test to track the changes introduced in every block using a local state.
* Refactor and cleanup test.
* Comments added to test and account cache fixes applied to account ledger.
* Return updated storage slots even when storage is empty and add test to build.
* Fix copyright and remove incorrect depth check during witness building in writeShortRlp assertion.
* Aristo: Update error return code
why:
Failing of `Aristo` function `delete()` might fail because there is
no such data item on the db. This must return a single error code
as is done with `fetch()`.
* Ledger: Better error handling
why:
The `expect()` clauses have been replaced by raising asserts indicating
the error from the database backend.
Also, `delete()` failures are legitimate if the item to delete does not
exist.
* Aristo: Delete function must always leave a label on DB for `hashify()`
why:
The `hashify()` uses the labels left bu `merge()` and `delete()` to
compile (and optimise) a scheduler for subsequent hashing.
Originally, the labels were not used for deleted entries and `delete()`
still had some edge case where the deletion label was not properly
handled.
* Aristo: Update `hashify()` scheduler, remove buggy optimisation
why:
Was left over from version without virtual state roots which did not
know about account payload leaf vertices referring to storage roots.
* Aristo: Label storage trie account in `delete()` similar to `merge()`
details;
The `delete()` function applied to a non-static state root (assumed
to be a storage root) will check the payload of an accounts leaf
and mark its Merkle keys to be re-checked when runninh `hashify()`
* Aristo: Clean up and re-org recycled vertex IDs in `hashify()`
why:
Re-organising the recycled vertex IDs list intends to reduce the size of the
list.
This list is organised as a LIFO (or stack.) By reorganising it in a way
so that the least vertex ID numbers are on top, the list will be kept
smaller as observed on some examples (less than 30%.)
* CoreDb: Accept storage trie deletion requests in non-initialised state
why:
Due to lazy initialisation, the root vertex ID might not yet exist. So
the `Aristo` database handlers would reject this call with an error and
this condition needs to be handled by the API (which realises the lazy
feature.)
* Cosmetics & code massage, prettify logging
* fix missing import
* CoreDb: Improve API and API tracking
why:
Now logs state roots where appropriate
* CoreDb: re-implement `CoreDbVidRef` => `CoreDbTrieRef`
why:
Instead of a root vertex ID wrapper, the purpose of this object type
has been upgrades to a sub-trie prototype.
caveat:
`Aristo` backend not fully functional, yet.
* CoreDb: Update `Aristo` backend
why:
Supports virtual sub-tries
* CoreDb: Account address tracking for `StorageTrie` virtual tries
details:
Supported with API tracking/logging
* CoreDb: Keep account address in payload object
why:
No need to provide extra address argument for `merge()`, also
provides tracking possibility for account debugging.
* Ledger: Update new API for `Aristo` specific storage trie handling
* CoreDb+Ledger: Update unit tests
* Fix copyright headers
* Aristo: Update unit test suite
* Aristo/Kvt: Fix iterators
why:
Generic iterators were not properly updated after backend change
* Aristo: Add sub-trie deletion functionality
why:
For storage tries linked to an account payload vertex ID, a the
whole storage trie needs to be deleted with the account.
* Aristo: Reserve vertex ID numbers for static custom state roots
why:
Static custom state roots may be controlled by an application,
e.g. for a receipt or a transaction root. The `Aristo` functions
are agnostic of what the static state roots are when different
from the internal tree vertex ID 1.
details;
The `merge()` function applied to a non-static state root (assumed
to be a storage root) will check the payload of an accounts leaf
and mark its Merkle keys to be re-checked.
* Aristo: Correct error code symbol
* Aristo: Update error code symbols
* Aristo: Code cosmetics/comments
* Aristo: Fix hashify schedule calculator
why:
Had a tendency to stop early leaving an incomplete job
