The reverse slot hash mechanism causes quite a bit of database traffic
but is broadly not useful except for iterating the storage of an
account, something that a validator never does (it's used by the
tracers).
This flag adds one more thing that is not stored in the database, to be
explored more comprehensively when designing full, validator and archive
modes with different pruning options in the future.
`ldb` says this is 60gb of data (!):
```
ldb --db=. --ignore_unknown_options --column_family=KvtGen approxsize
--hex --from=0x05
--to=0x05ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
66488353954
```
* remove some redundant EH
* avoid pessimising move (introduces a copy in this case!)
* shift less data around when reading era files (reduces stack usage)
* Rename `newKvt()` -> `ctx.getKvt()`
why:
Clean up legacy shortcut. Also, the `KVT` returned is not instantiated
but refers to the shared `KVT` that resides in a context which is a
generalisation of an in-memory database fork. The function `ctx`
retrieves the default context.
* Rename `newTransaction()` -> `ctx.newTransaction()`
why:
Clean up legacy shortcut. The transaction is applied to a context as a
generalisation of an in-memory database fork. The function `ctx`
retrieves the default context.
* Rename `getColumn(CtGeneric)` -> `getGeneric()`
why:
No more a list of well known sub-tries needed, a single one is enough.
In fact, `getColumn()` did only support a single sub-tree by now.
* Reduce TODO list
This significantly speeds up block import at the cost of less protection
against invalid data, potentially resulting in an invalid database
getting stored.
The risk is small given that import is used only for validated data -
evaluating the right level of of validation vs performance is left for a
future PR.
A side effect of this approach is that there is no cached stated root in
the database - computing it currently requires a lot of memory since the
intermediate roots get cached in memory in full while the computation is
ongoing - a future PR will need to address this deficiency, for example
by streaming the already-computed hashes directly to the database.
* avoid costly hike memory allocations for operations that don't need to
re-traverse it
* avoid unnecessary state checks (which might trigger unwanted state
root computations)
* disable optimize-for-hits due to the MPT no longer being complete at
all times
* Use simpler schema when writing transactions, receipts, and withdrawals
Using MPT not only slow but also take up more spaces than needed.
Aristo will remove older tries and only keep the last block tries.
Using simpler schema will avoid those problems.
* Rename getTransaction to getTransactionByIndex
* ForkedChain implementation
- revamp test_blockchain_json using ForkedChain
- re-enable previously failing test cases.
* Remove excess error handling
* Avoid reloading parent header
* Do not force base update
* Write baggage to database
* Add findActiveChain to finalizedSegment
* Create new stagingTx in addBlock
* Check last stateRoot existence in test_blockchain_json
* Resolve rebase conflict
* More precise nomenclature for block import cursor
* Ensure bad block nor imported and good block not rejected
* finalizeSegment become forkChoice and align with engine API forkChoice spec
* Display reason when good block rejected
* Fix comments
* Put BaseDistance into CalculateNewBase equation
* Separate finalizedHash from baseHash
* Add more doAssert constraint
* Add push raises: []
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
* Bump nim-eth, nim-web3, nimbus-eth2
- Replace std.Option with results.Opt
- Fields name changes
* More fixes
* Fix Portal stream async raises and portal testnet Opt usage

* 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.
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)

* Cleanup unneeded stateless and block witness code. Keeping MultiKeys which is used in the eth_getProofsByBlockNumber RPC endpoint which is needed for the Fluffy state network bridge.
* Rename generateWitness flag to collectWitnessData to better describe what the flag does. We only collect the keys of the touched accounts and storage slots but no block witness generation is supported for now.
* Move remaining stateless code into nimbus directory.
* Add vmstate parameter to ChainRef to fix test.

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
* Attempt to roll back stateless mode implementation in a single PR
why:
+ Stateless mode is not fully working and in the way
+ Single PR should make it feasible to investigate for a possible
re-implementation
* Fix copyright year
* Fix annotation for exception (evmc mode)
* Aristo: Allow to define/set `FilterID` for journal filter records
why:
After some changes, the `FilterID` is isomorphic to the `BlockNumber`
scalar (well, the first 2^64 entries of a `BlockNumber`.)
The needed change for `FilterID` is that the `FilterID(0)` value is
valid part of the `FilterID` scalar. A non-valid `FilterID` entry is
represented by `none(FilterID)`.
* Aristo: Split off function `persist()` as persistent version of `stow()`
why:
In production, `stow(persistent=false,..)` is currently unused. So,
using `persist()` rather than `stow(persistent=true,..)` improves
readability and is better to maintain.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Store block numbers in journal records
why:
This makes journal records searchable by block numbers
* Aristo: Rename some journal related functions
why:
The name *journal* is more appropriate to api functions than something
with *fifo* or *filter*.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Update last/oldest journal state retrieval
* CoreDb+Aristo: Register block number with state root in journal
why:
No need anymore for extra lookup table `stRootToBlockNum` which maps
a storage root -> block number.
* Aristo: Remove unused function `getFilUbe()` from api
* CoreDb: Remove now unused virtual table `stRootToBlockNum`
why:
Was used to map a state root to a block number. This functionality
is now embedded into the recovery journal backend.
* Turn of API tracking (will fail on `fluffy`)
* Aristo: Code cosmetics, e.g. update some CamelCase names
* CoreDb+Aristo: Provide oldest known state root implied
details:
The Aristo journal allows to recover earlier but not all state roots.
* Aristo: Fix journal backward index operator, e.g. `[^1]`
* Aristo: Fix journal updater
why:
The `fifosStore()` store function slightly misinterpreted the update
instructions when translation is to database `put()` functions. The
effect was that the journal was ever growing due to stale entries which
were never deleted.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Provide utils for purging stale data from the KVT
details:
See earlier patch, not all state roots are available. This patch
provides a mapping from some state root to a block number and allows to
remove all KVT data related to a particular block number
* Aristo+Kvt: Implement a clean up schedule for expired data in KVT
why:
For a single state ledger like `Aristo`, there is only a limited
backlog of states. So KVT data (i.e. headers etc.) are cleaned up
regularly
* Fix copyright year
* Code cosmetics
* Aristo+Kvt: Fix api wrappers
why:
Api setup killed the backend descriptor when backend mapping was
disabled.
* Aristo: Implement masked profiling entries
why:
Database backend should be listed but not counted in tally
* CoreDb: Simplify backend() methods
why:
DBMS backend access Was provided very early and over engineered. Now
there are only two backend machines, one for `Kvt` and the other one
for an `Mpt` available only via new API.
* CoreDb: Code cleanup regarding descriptor types
* CoreDb: Refactor/redefine `persistent()` methods
why:
There were `persistent()` methods for any type of caching storage
facilities `Kvt`, `Mpt`, `Phk`, and `Acc`. Now there is only a single
`persistent()` method storing all facilities in tandem (similar to
how transactions work.)
For non shared `Kvt` tables, there is now an extra storage method
`saveOffSite()`.
* CoreDb lingo update: `trie` becomes `column`
why:
Notion of a `trie` is pretty much hidden by the new `CoreDb` api.
Revealed are sort of database columns for accounts an storage data,
any of which have an internal state represented by a Keccack hash.
So a `trie` or `MPT` becomes a `column` and a `rootHash` becomes a
column state.
* Aristo: rename backend filed `filters` => `journal`
* Update full sync logging
details:
+ Disable eth handler noise while syncing
+ Log journal depth (if available)
* Fix copyright year
* Fix cruft and unwanted imports
* Remove cruft
* Docu/code cosmetics
* Aristo: Update `forkBase()`
why:
Was not up to the job
* Update/correct tracer for running against `Aristo`
details:
This patch makes sure that before creating a new `BaseVMState` the
`CoreDb` context is adjusted to accommodate for the state root that
is passed to the `BaseVMState` constructor.
* CpreDb+legacy: Always return current context with `ctxFromTx()`
why:
There was an experimental setting trying to find the node with the
proper setting in the KVT (not the hexary tie layer) which currently
does not work reliable, probably due to `Ledger` caching effects.
* 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
* 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.
* Activate `LedgerRef` wrapper for `AccountsCache`
details:
`accounts_cache.nim` methods are indirectly processed by the wrapper
methods from `ledger.nim`.
This works for all sources except `test_state_db.nim` where the source
`accounts_cache.nim` is included (rather than imported) in order to
access objects privy to the very source.
* Provide facility to switch to a preselected `LedgerRef` type
details:
Can be set as suggestion when initialising `CommonRef`
* Update `CoreDb` test suite for better time tracking
details:
+ Allow time logging by pre-defined block intervals
+ Print `CoreDb`/`Ledger`profiling results (if enabled)
* 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)
previously, the withdrawal validation is in process_block only,
but the one in persist block, which is also used in synchronizer
is not validated properly.
* Update sync scheduler pool mode
why:
The pool mode allows to loop over active peers one after another. This
is ideal for soft re-starting peers. As this is a two tier experience
(start/stop, setup/release) the loop must be run twice. This is
controlled by a more rigid re-definition of how to use the `poolMode`
flag.
* Mitigate RLP serialiser deficiency
why:
Currently, serialising the `BlockBody` in not conevrtible and need
to be checked in the `eth` module. Currently a local fix for the
wire protocol applies. Unit tests will stay (after this local solution
will have been removed.)
* Code cosmetics and massage
details:
Main part is `types.toStr()` as a unified function for logging block
numbers.
* Allow to use a logical genesis replacement (start of history)
why:
Snap sync will set up an arbitrary pivot at a block number different
from zero. In fact, the higher the block number the better.
details:
A non-genesis start of history will currently only affect the score
values which were derived from the difficulty.
* Provide function to store the snap pivot block header in chain db
why:
Together with the start of history facility, this allows to proceed
with full syncing once snap has finished.
details:
Snap db storage was switched from a sub-tables to the flat chain db.
* Provide database completeness and sanity checker
details:
For debugging on smaller databases, only
* Implement snap -> full sync switch
* 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
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 1, tx_pool
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 2, clique
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 3, misc core
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 4, sync
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Clique update
why:
Missing exception annotation
* Rename and update dismantle => hexaryEnvelopeDecompose()
why:
+ As for naming, a positive connotation is prefered
+ The unit tests were really insufficient
+ The function result was wrong on a few boundry conditions
detail:
+ Extracted the function from `hexary_paths.nim` and re-implemented
it together with other envelope functions => `hexary_envelope.nim`
+ Re-wrote docu for `hexaryEnvelopeDecompose()`
* Relaxed right condition for `hexaryEnvelopeDecompose()` range argument
why;
Previously, the right point of the argument interval had to be a path
to an allocated leaf node. While this is typically a given for accounts,
it is easier to require an arbitrary range of paths (or keys) with
the requirement of a `boundary proof` for left and right (i.e. enough
nodes in the database to find the end points.)
also:
Bug fixes for related functions (typos, missing conditions etc.)
* Add missing unit tests include file
