* Re-model persistent database access
why:
Storage slots healing just run on the wrong sub-trie (i.e. the wrong
key mapping). So get/put and bulk functions now use the definitions
in `snapdb_desc` (earlier there were some shortcuts for `get()`.)
* Fixes: missing return code, typo, redundant imports etc.
* Remove obsolete debugging directives from `worker_desc` module
* Correct failing unit tests for storage slots trie inspection
why:
Some pathological cases for the extended tests do not produce any
hexary trie data. This is rightly detected by the trie inspection
and the result checks needed to adjusted.
* For snap sync, publish `EthWireRef` in sync descriptor
why:
currently used for noise control
* Detect and reuse existing storage slots
* Provide healing module for storage slots
* Update statistic ticker (adding range factor for unprocessed storage)
* Complete mere function for work item ranges
why:
Merging interval into existing partial item was missing
* Show av storage queue lengths in ticker
detail;
Previous attempt shows average completeness which did not tell much
* Correct the meaning of the storage counter (per pivot)
detail:
Is the # accounts that have a storage saved
* Rename `LeafRange` => `NodeTagRange`
* Replacing storage slot partition point by interval
why:
The partition point only allows to describe slots `[point,high(Uint256)]`
for fetching interval slot ranges. This has been generalised for any
interval.
* Replacing `SnapAccountRanges` by `SnapTrieRangeBatch`
why:
Generalised healing status for accounts, and later for storage slots.
* Improve accounts healing loop
* Split `snap_db` into accounts and storage modules
why:
It is cleaner to have separate session descriptors for accounts and
storage slots (based on a common base descriptor.)
Also, persistent storage handling might be changed in future which
requires the storage slot implementation disentangled from the accounts
handling.
* Re-model worker queues for storage slots
why:
There is a dynamic list of storage sub-tries, each one has to be
treated similar to the accounts database. This applied to slot
interval downloads as well as to healing
* Compress some return value report lists for snapdb methods
why:
No need to report all handling details for work items that are filteres
out and discarded, anyway.
* Remove inner loop frame from healing function
why:
The healing function runs as a loop body already.
* Split fetch accounts into sub-modules
details:
There will be separated modules for accounts snapshot, storage snapshot,
and healing for either.
* Allow to rebase pivot before negotiated header
why:
Peers seem to have not too many snapshots available. By setting back the
pivot block header slightly, the chances might be higher to find more
peers to serve this pivot. Experiment on mainnet showed that setting back
too much (tested with 1024), the chances to find matching snapshot peers
seem to decrease.
* Add accounts healing
* Update variable/field naming in `worker_desc` for readability
* Handle leaf nodes in accounts healing
why:
There is no need to fetch accounts when they had been added by the
healing process. On the flip side, these accounts must be checked for
storage data and the batch queue updated, accordingly.
* Reorganising accounts hash ranges batch queue
why:
The aim is to formally cover as many accounts as possible for different
pivot state root environments. Formerly, this was tried by starting the
accounts batch queue at a random value for each pivot (and wrapping
around.)
Now, each pivot environment starts with an interval set mutually
disjunct from any interval set retrieved with other pivot state roots.
also:
Stop fishing for more pivots in `worker` if 100% download is reached
* Reorganise/update accounts healing
why:
Error handling was wrong and the (math. complexity of) whole process
could be better managed.
details:
Much of the algorithm is now documented at the top of the file
`heal_accounts.nim`
* Miscellaneous updates TBC
* Disentangled pivot2 module from snap
why:
Wrote as template on top of sync so it can be shared by fast and snap
sync.
* Renamed and relocated pivot sources
* Integrated `best_pivot` module into full and snap sync
why:
Full sync used an older version of `best_pivot`
* isolating download module from full sync
why;
might be shared with snap sync at a later stage
* Added inspect module
why:
Find dangling references for trie healing support.
details:
+ This patch set provides only the inspect module and some unit tests.
+ There are also extensive unit tests which need bulk data from the
`nimbus-eth1-blob` module.
* Alternative pivot finder
why:
Attempt to be faster on start up. Also tying to decouple pivot finder
somehow by providing different mechanisms (this one runs in `single`
mode.)
* Use inspect module for healing
details:
+ After some progress with account and storage data, the inspect facility
is used to find dangling links in the database to be filled nose-wise.
+ This is a crude attempt to cobble together functional elements. The
set up needs to be honed.
* fix scheduler to avoid starting dead peers
why:
Some peers drop out while in `sleepAsync()`. So extra `if` clauses
make sure that this event is detected early.
* Bug fixes causing crashes
details:
+ prettify.toPC():
int/intToStr() numeric range over/underflow
+ hexary_inspect.hexaryInspectPath():
take care of half initialised step with branch but missing index into
branch array
* improve handling of dropped peers in alternaive pivot finder
why:
Strange things may happen while querying data from the network.
Additional checks make sure that the state of other peers is updated
immediately.
* Update trace messages
* reorganise snap fetch & store schedule
* Re-implemented `hexaryFollow()` in a more general fashion
details:
+ New name for re-implemented `hexaryFollow()` is `hexaryPath()`
+ Renamed `rTreeFollow()` as `hexaryPath()`
why:
Returning similarly organised structures, the results of the
`hexaryPath()` functions become comparable when running over
the persistent and the in-memory databases.
* Added traversal functionality for persistent ChainDB
* Using `Account` values as re-packed Blob
* Repack samples as compressed data files
* Produce test data
details:
+ Can force pivot state root switch after minimal coverage.
+ For emulating certain network behaviour, downloading accounts stops for
a particular pivot state root if 30% (some static number) coverage is
reached. Following accounts are downloaded for a later pivot state root.
* Extracted functionality into sub-modules for maintainability
* Setting SST bulk load as default in `accounts_db`
details:
+ currently, the same data are stored via rocksdb if available, and
the same via embedded `storage_type` with (non-standard) prefix 200
for time comparisons
+ fallback to normal `put()` unless rocksdb is accessible
