why:
Not used anymore, the tree is dirty by default.
* Rename `aristo_hashify` -> `aristo_compute`
* Remove cruft, update comments, cosmetics, etc.
* Simplify `SavedState` object
why:
The key chaining have become obsolete after extra lazy hashing. There

wip: on-demand mpt construction
Given that actual data is stored in the `Vertex` structure, it's useful
to think of the MPT as a cache for computing roots rather than being a
functional requirement on its own.
This PR engenders this line of thinking by incrementally computing the
MPT only when it's needed, ie when a state (or similar) root is needed.
This has the effect of siginficantly reducing memory usage as well as
improving performance:
* no need for dirty-mpt-node book-keeping
* no need to build complex forest of upcoming hashing work
* only hashes that are functionally needed are ever computed -
intermediate nodes whose MTP root is not observed are never computed /
processed
* Unit test hot fixes
* Unit test hot fixes cont.

* Normalised storage tree addressing in function prototypes
detail:
Argument list is always `<db> <account-path> <slot-path> ..` with
both path arguments as `openArray[]`
* Remove cruft
* CoreDb internally Use full account paths rather than addresses
* Update API logging
* Use hashed account address only in prototypes
why:
This avoids unnecessary repeated hashing of the same account address.
The burden of doing that is upon the application. In the case here,
the ledger caches all kinds of stuff anyway so it is common sense to
exploit that for account address hashes.
caveat:
Using `openArray[byte]` argument types for hashed accounts is inherently
fragile. In non-release mode, a length verification `doAssert` is
enabled by default.
* No accPath in data record (use `AristoAccount` as `CoreDbAccount`)
* Remove now unused `eAddr` field from ledger `AccountRef` type
why:
Is duplicate of lookup key
* Avoid merging the account record/statement in the ledger twice.
* Tighten `CoreDb` API for accounts
why:
Apart from cruft, the way to fetch the accounts state root via a
`CoreDbColRef` record was unnecessarily complicated.
* Extend `CoreDb` API for accounts to cover storage tries
why:
In future, this will make the notion of column objects obsolete. Storage
trees will then be indexed by the account address rather than the vertex
ID equivalent like a `CoreDbColRef`.
* Apply new/extended accounts API to ledger and tests
details:
This makes the `distinct_ledger` module obsolete
* Remove column object constructors
why:
They were needed as an abstraction of MPT sub-trees including storage
trees. Now, storage trees are handled by the account (e.g. via address)
they belong to and all other trees can be identified by a constant well
known vertex ID. So there is no need for column objects anymore.
Still there are some left-over column object methods wnich will be
removed next.
* Remove `serialise()` and `PayloadRef` from default Aristo API
why:
Not needed. `PayloadRef` was used for unstructured/unknown payload
formats (account or blob) and `serialise()` was used for decodng
`PayloadRef`. Now it is known in advance what the payload looks
like.
* Added query function `hasStorageData()` whether a storage area exists
why:
Useful for supporting `slotStateEmpty()` of the `CoreDb` API
* In the `Ledger` replace `storage.stateEmpty()` by `slotStateEmpty()`
* On Aristo, hide the storage root/vertex ID in the `PayloadRef`
why:
The storage vertex ID is fully controlled by Aristo while the
`AristoAccount` object is controlled by the application. With the
storage root part of the `AristoAccount` object, there was a useless
administrative burden to keep that storage root field up to date.
* Remove cruft, update comments etc.
* Update changed MPT access paradigms
why:
Fixes verified proxy tests
* Fluffy cosmetics
* Simplify txpool baseFeeGet
- Avoid using toEVMFork because we are not in EVM
- Rename `isLondon` to `isLondonOrLater`
* Remove timestamp from isLondonOrLater
* ForkedChain implementation
- revamp test_blockchain_json using ForkedChain
- re-enable previously failing test cases.

* Display reason when good block rejected
* Fix comments
* Put BaseDistance into CalculateNewBase equation
* Separate finalizedHash from baseHash
* Add more doAssert constraint
* Add push raises: []
* creating a seq from a table that holds lots of changes means copying
all data into the table - this can be several GB of data while syncing
blocks
* nim fails to optimize the moving of the `WidthFirstForest` - the real
solution is to not construct a `wff` to begin with, but this PR provides
relief while that is being worked on
This spike fix allows us to bump the rocksdb cache by another 2 GB and
still have a significantly lower peak memory usage during sync.
When processing long ranges of blocks, the account cache grows unbounded
which cause huge memory spikes.
Here, we move the cache to a second-level cache after each block - the
second-level cache is cleared on the next block after that which creates
a simple LRU effect.
There's a small performance cost of course, though overall the freed-up
memory can now be reassigned to the rocksdb row cache which not only
makes up for the loss but overall leads to a performance increase.
The bump to 2gb of rocksdb row cache here needs more testing but is
slightly less and loosely basedy on the savings from this PR and the
circular ref fix in #2408 - another way to phrase this is that it's
better to give rocksdb more breathing room than let the memory sit
unused until circular ref collection happens ;)
An instance of `CoreDbMptRef` is created for and stored in every account
- when we are processing blocks and have many accounts in memory, this
closure environment takes up hundreds of mb of memory (around block 5M,
it is the 4:th largest memory consumer!) - incidentally, this also
removes a circular reference in the setup that causes the
`AristoCodeDbMptRef` to linger in memory much longer than it
has to which is the core reason why it takes so much.
The real solution here is to remove the methods indirection entirely,
but this PR provides relief until that has been done.
Similar treatment is given to some of the other core api functions to
avoid circulars there too.
This buffer eleminates a large part of allocations during MPT traversal,
reducing overall memory usage and GC pressure.
Ideally, we would use it throughout in the API instead of
`openArray[byte]` since the built-in length limit appropriately exposes
the natural 64-nibble depth constraint that `openArray` fails to
capture.
It is common for many accounts to share the same code - at the database
level, code is stored by hash meaning only one copy exists per unique
program but when loaded in memory, a copy is made for each account.
Further, every time we execute the code, it must be scanned for invalid
jump destinations which slows down EVM exeuction.
Finally, the extcodesize call causes code to be loaded even if only the
size is needed.
This PR improves on all these points by introducing a shared
CodeBytesRef type whose code section is immutable and that can be shared
between accounts. Further, a dedicated `len` API call is added so that
the EXTCODESIZE opcode can operate without polluting the GC and code
cache, for cases where only the size is requested - rocksdb will in this
case cache the code itself in the row cache meaning that lookup of the
code itself remains fast when length is asked for first.
With 16k code entries, there's a 90% hit rate which goes up to 99%
during the 2.3M attack - the cache significantly lowers memory
consumption and execution time not only during this event but across the
board.
* CoreDb: remove PHK tries
why:
There is no general use anymore for an MPT with a pre-hashed key. It
was used to resemble the `SecureHexaryTrie` logic from the legacy DB.
The only pace where this is needed is the `Leger` which uses a
a distinct MPT version anyway (see `distinct_ledgers.nim`.)
* Rename `CoreDx*` -> `CoreDb*`
why:
The naming `CoreDx*` was used to differentiate the new CoreDb API from
the legacy API which had descriptors named `CoreDb*`.
* Provide dedicated functions for fetching accounts and storage trees
why:
Different prototypes for each class `account`, `generic` and
`storage`.
* Remove `fetchPayload()` and other cruft from API, `aristo_fetch`, etc.
* Fix typos, debugging left overs, comments
For the block cache to be shared between column families, the options
instance must be shared between the various column families being
created. This also ensures that there is only one source of truth for
configuration options instead of having two different sets depending on
how the tables were initialized.
This PR also removes the re-opening mechanism which can double startup
time - every time the database is opened, the log is replayed - a large
log file will take a long time to open.
Finally, several options got correclty implemented as column family
options, including an one that puts a hash index in the SST files.
* Provide dedicated functions for deleteing accounts and storage trees
why:
Storage trees are always linked to an account, so there is no need
for an application to fiddle about (e.g. re-cycling, unlinking)
storage tree vertex IDs.
* Remove `delete()` and other cruft from API, `aristo_delete`, etc.
* clean up delete functions
details:
The delete implementations `deleteImpl()` and `delTreeImpl()` do not
need to be super generic anymore as all the edge cases are covered by
the specialised `deleteAccountPayload()`, `deleteGenericData()`, etc.
* Avoid unnecessary re-calculations of account keys
why:
The function `registerAccountForUpdate()` did extract the storage ID
(if any) and automatically marked the Merkle keys along the account
path for re-hashing.
This would also apply if there was later detected that the account
or the storage tree did not need to be updated.
So the `registerAccountForUpdate()` function was split into a part
which retrieved the storage ID, and another one which marked the
Merkle keys for re-calculation to be applied only when needed.
* Remove unused `merge*()` functions (for production)
details:
Some functionality moved to test suite
* Make sure that only `AccountData` leaf type is exactly used on VertexID(1)
* clean up payload type
* Provide dedicated functions for merging accounts and storage trees
why:
Storage trees are always linked to an account, so there is no need
for an application to fiddle about (e.e. creating, re-cycling) with
storage tree vertex IDs.
* CoreDb: Disable tracer functionality
why:
Must be updated to accommodate new/changed `Aristo` functions.
* CoreDb: Use new `mergeXXX()` functions
why:
Makes explicit vertex ID management obsolete for creating new
storage trees.
* Remove `mergePayload()` and other cruft from API, `aristo_merge`, etc.
* clean up merge functions
details:
The merge implementation `mergePayloadImpl()` does not need to be super
generic anymore as all the edge cases are covered by the specialised
functions `mergeAccountPayload()`, `mergeGenericData()`, and
`mergeStorageData()`.
* No tracer available at the moment, so disable offending tests
The state root computation here is one of the major hotspots in block
processing - in the cases the code only needs to know if it's empty or
not, it can be done a lot faster.
Adding a separate function for this looks fragile and should probably be
revisited.
Broadly, when importing blocks we don't need a transaction / frame per
block because we can simply abort the whole update and try again with a
smaller range if we find a faulty block.
Of course, this applies mainly to semi-trusted blocks where we're not
expected to fail in applying them - this could be blocks either from
files or header-verified blocks as given by consensus.
* Remove AccountStateDB
AccountStateDB should no longer be used.
It's usage have been reduce to read only operations.
Replace it with LedgerRef to reduce maintenance burden.
* remove extra spaces

When performing block import, we can batch state root verifications and
header checks, doing them only once per chunk of blocks, assuming that
the other blocks in the batch are valid by extension.
When we're not generating receipts, we can also skip per-transaction
state root computation pre-byzantium, which is what provides a ~20%
speedup in this PR, at least on those early blocks :)
We also stop storing transactions, receipts and uncles redundantly when
importing from era1 - there is no need to waste database storage on this
when we can load it from the era1 file (eventually).
State lookups potentially trigger expensive re-hashings - this is the
first of several steps to remove the unnecessary ones from the general
flow of block processing
* avoid re-reading parent block header from database when it's already
in memory
* Fix initialiser
why:
Possible crash (app profiling, tracer etc.)
* Update column family options processing
why:
Same for kvt as for aristo
* Move `AristoDbDualRocks` backend type to the test suite
why:
So it is not available for production
* Fix typos in API jump table
why:
Used for tracing and app profiling only. Needed some update
* Purged CoreDb legacy API
why:
Not needed anymore, was transitionary and disabled.
* Rename `flush` argument to `eradicate` in a DB close context
why:
The word `eradicate` leaves no doubt what is meant
* Rename `stoFlush()` -> `stoDelete()`
* Rename `core_apps_newapi` -> `core_apps` (not so new anymore)
* Bump nim-eth, nim-web3, nimbus-eth2

* bump rockdb
* Rename `KVT` objects related to filters according to `Aristo` naming
details:
filter* => delta*
roFilter => balancer
* Compulsory error handling if `persistent()` fails
* Add return code to `reCentre()`
why:
Might eventually fail if re-centring is blocked. Some logic will be
added in subsequent patch sets.
* Add column families from earlier session to rocksdb in opening procedure
why:
All previously used CFs must be declared when re-opening an existing
database.
* Update `init()` and add rocksdb `reinit()` methods for changing parameters
why:
Opening a set column families (with different open options) must span
at least the ones that are already on disk.
* Provide write-trigger-event interface into `Aristo` backend
why:
This allows to save data from a guest application (think `KVT`) to
get synced with the write cycle so the guest and `Aristo` save all
atomically.
* Use `KVT` with new column family interface from `Aristo`
* Remove obsolete guest interface
* Implement `KVT` piggyback on `Aristo` backend
* CoreDb: Add separate `KVT`/`Aristo` backend mode for debugging
* Remove `rocks_db` import from `persist()` function
why:
Some systems (i.p `fluffy` and friends) use the `Aristo` memory
backend emulation and do not link against rocksdb when building the
application. So this should fix that problem.
These options, inspired by Nethermind and general internet wisdom, bring
the database size down to 2/3 without affecting throughput. In theory,
they should also bring down memory usage and/or make more efficient use
of whatever memory is already assigned to rocksdb but this needs
verification in a longer test at synced-mainnet sizes.
In the meantime, they make testing easier by removing some noise that
the profiler says are bad, such as excessive SkipList access (countered
by bloom filters).
* Use RocksDb column families instead of a prefixed single column
why:
Better performance
* Use structural objects `VertexRef` and `HashKey` in LRU cache for RocksDb
why:
Avoids repeated de/serialisation
`initTable` is obsolete since nim 0.19 and can introduce significant
memory overhead while providing no benefit (since the table will be
grown to the default initial size on first use anyway).
In particular, aristo layers will not necessarily use all tables they
initialize, for exampe when many empty accounts are being created.
This PR consolidates the split header-body sequences into a single EthBlock
sequence and cleans up the fallout from that which significantly reduces
block processing overhead during import thanks to less garbage collection
and fewer copies of things all around.
Notably, since the number of headers must always match the number of bodies,
we also get rid of a pointless degree of freedom that in the future could
introduce unnecessary bugs.
* only read header and body from era file
* avoid several unnecessary copies along the block processing way
* simplify signatures, cleaning up unused arguemnts and returns
* use `stew/assign2` in a few strategic places where the generated
nim assignent is slow and add a few `move` to work around poor
analysis in nim 1.6 (will need to be revisited for 2.0)

These options are there mainly to drive experiments, and are therefore

One thing that this PR brings in is an initial set of caches and buffers for rocksdb - the set that I've been using during various performance tests to get to a viable baseline performance level.
The `rocksdb` version shipped with distributions is typically old and
therefore often lacks features we use - it also doesn't match the one
assumed by nim-rocksdb leading to ABI mismatch risks.
Instead of depending on the system rocksdb, we'll now use the rocksdb
version assumed by nim-rocksdb and locked in its vendor folder by always
building it together with nimbus.
This avoids the problem of unknown rocksdb versions at a (small) cost to
build time.
CI caching and full windows support for building from source [remains

So it is directly comparable to `kMap[$1]`
* Moved `vGen[]` field from `LayerFinalRef` to `LayerDeltaRef`
why:
Then a separate `FilterRef` type is not needed, anymore
* Rename `roFilter` field in `AristoDbRef` => `balancer`
why:
New name more appropriate.
* Replace `FilterRef` by `LayerDeltaRef` type
why:
This allows to avoid copying into the `balancer` (see next patch set)
most of the time. Typically, only one instance is running on the backend
and the `balancer` is only used as a stage before saving data.
* Refactor way how to store data persistently
why:
Avoid useless copy when staging `top` layer for persistently saving to
backend.
* Fix copyright header?
`persist` is a hotspot when processing blocks because it is run at least
once per transaction and loops over the entire account cache every time.
Here, we introduce an extra `dirty` map that keeps track of all accounts
that need checking during `persist` which fixes the immediate
inefficiency, though probably this could benefit from a more thorough
review - we also get rid of the unused clearCache flag - we start with
a fresh cache on every fresh vmState.
* avoid unnecessary code hash comparisons
* avoid unnecessary copies when iterating
* use EMPTY_CODE_HASH throughout for code hash comparison
The current implementation cannot be used practically since it causes
several full reallocations of the whole free list per deletion - it
needs to be reimplemented, or the chain cannot practically progress
beyond ~2.5M blocks where a lot of removals happen.

This PR extends the `nimbus import` command to also allow reading from
era files - this command allows creating or topping up an existing
database with data coming from era files instead of network sync.
* add `--era1-dir` and `--max-blocks` options to command line
* make `persistBlocks` report basic stats like transactions and gas
* improve error reporting in several API
* allow importing multiple RLP files in one go
* clean up logging options to match nimbus-eth2
* make sure database is closed properly on shutdown
* Update TDD suite logger output format choices
why:
New format is not practical for TDD as it just dumps data across a wide
range (considerably larder than 80 columns.)
So the new format can be turned on by function argument.
* Update unit tests samples configuration
why:
Slightly changed the way to find the `era1` directory
* Remove compiler warnings (fix deprecated expressions and phrases)
* Update `Aristo` debugging tools
* Always update the `storageID` field of account leaf vertices
why:
Storage tries are weekly linked to an account leaf object in that
the `storageID` field is updated by the application.
Previously, `Aristo` verified that leaf objects make sense when passed
to the database. As a consequence
* the database was inconsistent for a short while
* the burden for correctness was all on the application which led
to delayed error handling which is hard to debug.
So `Aristo` will internally update the account leaf objects so that
there are no race conditions due to the storage trie handling
* Aristo: Let `stow()`/`persist()` bail out unless there is a `VertexID(1)`
why:
The journal and filter logic depends on the hash of the `VertexID(1)`
which is commonly known as the state root. This implies that all
changes to the database are somehow related to that.
* Make sure that a `Ledger` account does not overwrite the storage trie reference
why:
Due to the abstraction of a sub-trie (now referred to as column with a
hash describing its state) there was a weakness in the `Aristo` handler
where an account leaf could be overwritten though changing the validity
of the database. This has been changed and the database will now reject
such changes.
This patch fixes the behaviour on the application layer. In particular,
the column handle returned by the `CoreDb` needs to be updated by
the `Aristo` database state. This mitigates the problem that a storage
trie might have vanished or re-apperaed with a different vertex ID.
* Fix sub-trie deletion test
why:
Was originally hinged on `VertexID(1)` which cannot be wholesale
deleted anymore after the last Aristo update. Also, running with
`VertexID(2)` needs an artificial `VertexID(1)` for making `stow()`
or `persist()` work.
* Cosmetics

* Temporarily `deactivate test_tracer_json`
