* 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)
on windows, using "localhost" for rpc test is very slow.
both pyspec_sim and engine_sim will need more than one hour.
while on linux and macos only few minutes.
* Unit tests update, code cosmetics
* Fix segfault with zombie handling
why:
In order to save memory, the data records of zombie entries are removed
and only the key (aka peer node) is kept. Consequently, logging these
zombies can only be done by the key.
* Allow to accept V2 payload without `shanghaiTime` set while syncing
why:
Currently, `shanghaiTime` is missing (alt least) while snap syncing. So
beacon node headers can be processed regardless. Normal (aka strict)
processing will be automatically restored when leaving snap sync mode.
* Recreating some of the speculative-execution code.
Not really using it yet. Also there's some new inefficiency in
memory.nim, but it's fixable - just haven't gotten around to it yet.
The big thing introduced here is the idea of "cells" for stack,
memory, and storage values. A cell is basically just a Future (though
there's also the option of making it an Identity - just a simple
distinct wrapper around a value - if you want to turn off the
asynchrony).
* Bumped nim-eth.
* Cleaned up a few comments.
* Bumped nim-secp256k1.
* Oops.
* Fixing a few compiler errors that show up with EVMC enabled.
- Remove failing on withdrawalsRoot to allow Shanghai BlockHeader.
Still need to add real checks in block header / body validation.
- Add withdrawals array to Block object for JSON-RPC API
* 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.
* Refactoring in preparation for time-based forking.
* Timestamp-based hard-fork-transition.
* Workaround SideEffect issue / compiler bug for both failing locations in Portal history code

* Removed some Windows specific unit test annoyances
details:
+ Short put()/get() cycles on persistent database have a race condition
with vendor rocksdb. On a specific (and slow) qemu/win7 a 50ms `sleep()`
in between will mostly do the job (i.e. unless heavy CPU load.) This
issue was not observed on github/ci.
+ Removed annoyances when qemu/Win7 keeps the rocksdb database files
locked even after closing the db. The problem is solved by strictly
using fresh names for each test. No assumption made to be able to
properly clean up. This issue was not observed on github/ci.
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 7, misc/non(sync or graphql)
details:
Adding some missing exception annotation
* Reduce Nim 1.6 compiler warnings/hints for Fluffy and Nimbus proxy
Mostly raises Defect removals, TaintedString removal and some
unnecessary imports.
Also updating the copyright years alongside.
* Further reduce Nim 1.6 compiler warnings/hints for Nimbus
* 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)
* Simplify pivot update
why:
No need to fetch the pivot header from the network when it can be
be made available in the ivot cache
also:
Keep `txPool` update disabled while syncing
* Cosmetics, tune down some logging noise
* Support `snap/1` without `eth/6?`
why:
Eth is not needed here.
* Snap is an (optional) extension of `eth`
so:
It it must be supported somehow. Nevertheless it will be currently
unused in the snap syncer.
* Register external beacon stream header
why:
This will be used to sync the peers against.
* Update total coverage book-keeping for 100% roll-over
details:
Provide commonly available/used function
* Replace best pivot by beacon stream tracker
details:
Beacon stream header cache will be updated by external chain monitor via
RPC. This cached header will then be used to sync the pivot.
* Squashed snap-sync-preview patch
why:
Providing end results makes it easier to have an overview.
Collected patch set comments are available as nimbus/sync/ChangeLog.md
in chronological order, oldest first.
* Removed some cruft and obsolete imports, normalised logging
* Prepare unit tests for running without tx-pool job queue
why:
Most of the job queue logic can be emulated. This adapts to a few
pathological test cases.
* Replace tx-pool job queue logic with in-place actions
why:
This additional execution layer is not needed, anymore which has been
learned from working with the integration/hive tests.
details:
Execution of add or deletion jobs are executed in-place. Some actions
-- as in smartHead() -- have been combined for facilitating the correct
order actions
* Update production functions, remove txpool legacy stuff
* Enable JWT authentication for websockets
details:
Currently, this is optional and only enabled when the jwtsecret option
is set.
There is a default mechanism to generate a JWT secret if it is not
explicitly stated. This mechanism is currently unused.
* Make JWT authentication compulsory for websockets
* Fix unit test entry point + cosmetics
* Update JSON-RPC link
* Improvements as suggested by Mamy
Includes a simple test harness for the merge interop M1 milestone
This aims to enable connecting nimbus-eth2 to nimbus-eth1 within
the testing protocol described here:
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/blob/amphora-merge-interop/docs/interop_merge.md
To execute the work-in-progress test, please run:
In terminal 1:
tests/amphora/launch-nimbus.sh
In terminal 2:
tests/amphora/check-merge-test-vectors.sh
previously, every time the VMState was created, it will also create
new stateDB, and this action will nullify the advantages of cached accounts.
the new changes will conserve the accounts cache if the executed blocks
are contiguous. if not the stateDB need to be reinited.
this changes also allow rpcCallEvm and rpcEstimateGas executed properly
using current stateDB instead of creating new one each time they are called.
