* Added procs to get and store block witness in db and add generate-witness cli flag.
* Completed initial implementation of block witness storage.

* Update getBlockWitness to return witness using Result type.
* Make generate witness parameter hidden.
* Update experimental rpc test to do further validation on proof responses.

* 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.

* Fix copyright and remove incorrect depth check during witness building in writeShortRlp assertion.
* Add premix persist tool to Makefile to build as separate binary.
* Fix rootBytes.len > 0 assertion defect in HexaryTrie by adding call to com.db.compensateLegacySetup().
* Run hardForkTransition before executing transactions in getBlockWitness.
* Improve logging and add help message.
* Retry requests for block data.
* Return slots when verifying witness regardless of code length.
* Prevent AccountCache WitnessData codeTouched from being reset.
* Default to using {wfNoFlag} for witness flags in tests to allow running with data from before EIP170.
* Add additional json files to experimental JSON RPC test.
* Use HTTP RPC server in tests.
* Add test to check that block witness contains bytecode.
* Completed draft implementation of witness JSON-RPC endpoints for portal network bridge.
* Updated Nimbus RPC configuration to support enabling experimental endpoints.
* Moved witness verification tests.
* Added json test for getProof.
* Added main procs to new tests to fix test suite.
* Added getBlockWitness test to blockchain json test suite.
* Added tests for experimental RPC endpoints and improved the API to support returning state proofs from before or after block execution.
* Correctly rollback transaction in getBlockWitness proc.
* Initial implementation of eth_getProof endpoint.
* Implemented generation of account and storage proofs.
* Minor fixes and additional tests.
* Refactor getBranch code into a separate file.
* Improve usage of test data.
* Fix copyright year.
* Return zero hash for codeHash and storageHash if account doesn't exist.
* Update copyright notice and moved trie key hashing to inside getBranch proc.
Both types are not safe and require validation/conversion
from rpc implementer.
This PR change it to safer types and delegate the conversion
and validation to the rpc library.
* 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.
