* Make sure that storage tries are not pruned (by default) on the new Ledger API
why:
Pruning might kill some unwanted entries from storage tries ending up with an unstable database
leading to crashes.
* Implement `CoreDb` and `LedgerRef` API tracing
details:
+ Locally enabled at compile time via constants `ProvideCoreDbLegacyAPI`
and `EnableApiTracking` in either `base.nim` source
+ If enabled it can be selectively turned on/off via public switches in
the `CoreDb` descriptor.
* Allow suppressing opportunistic `ifNecessaryGetXxx()` functions
why:
Better troubleshooting when the system crashes (assertions will then
most probably happen outside an `async` function.)
This would lead to sending an AcceptMessage with a zeroed out
connection id but still potentially bits set in the bitlist.
Requesting nodes could try to open up an uTP connection that
would never be accepted on the responder side.
* Provide TDD/debug facility for inspecting `persistBlocks()` working
detail:
+ Make sure that the last block of a test sample is the first batch
item in `persistBlocks()`.
+ Additionally, allow `AccountsCache` API tracing by setting the flag
`extraTraceMessages = true` in the file `accounts_cache.nim`
* Overload AccountsCache by abstraction wrapper
details:
Can facilitate CoreDb API switch, details in `ledger/README.md`.
details:
Persistent pruning would not restore the `emptyRlp` value for the
root node when the database becomes empty. This effects to an
assertion exception next time the DB is accessed.
As most unit tests run on the memory DB, this case slipped through
unnoticed for a while (see also issue #9.)
* CoreDB: Re-org API
details:
Legacy API internally uses vertex ID for root node abstraction
* Cosmetics: Move some unit test helpers to common sub-directory
* Extract constant from `accouns_cache.nim` => `constants.nim`
* Fix tracer methods
why:
Logger dump data were wrongly dumped from the production database. This
caused an assert exception when iterating over the persistent database
(instead of the memory logger.) This event in turn was enabled after
fixing another inconsistency which just set up an empty iterator. Unit
tests failed to detect that.
- Adjust beacon lc db to avoid requirement of pruning optimistic
and finality updates
- Enable Portal config for beacon chain network to apply IP limits
configs on routing table
