* Handle last/all node(s) proof conditions at leaf node extractor
detail:
Flag whether the maximum extracted node is the last one in database
No proof needed if the full tree was extracted
* Clean up some helpers & definitions
details:
Move entities to more plausible locations, e.g. `Account` object need
not be dealt with in the range extractor as it applies to any kind of
leaf data.
* Fix next/prev database walk fringe condition
details:
First check needed might be for a leaf node which was done too late.
* Homogenise snap/1 protocol function prototypes
why:
The range arguments `origin` and `limit` data types differed in various
function prototypes (`Hash256` vs. `openArray[byte]`.)
* Implement `GetStorageRange` handler
* Implement server timeout for leaf node retrieval
why:
This feature leaves control on the server for probably costly action
invoked by the network
* Implement maximal reply size for snap service
why:
This feature leaves control on the server for probably costly action
invoked by the network.
* Part of EIP-4895: add withdrawals processing to block processing.
* Refactoring: extracted the engine API handler bodies into procs.
Intending to implement the V2 versions next. (I need the bodies to be
in separate procs so that multiple versions can use them.)
* Working on Engine API changes for Shanghai.
* Updated nim-web3, resolved ambiguity in Hash256 type.
* Updated nim-eth3 to point to master, now that I've merged that.
* I'm confused about what's going on with engine_client.
But let's try resolving this Hash256 ambiguity.
* Still trying to fix this conflict with the Hash256 types.
* Does this work now that nimbus-eth2 has been updated?
* Corrected blockValue in getPayload responses back to UInt256.
c834f67a37
* Working on getting the withdrawals-related tests to pass.
* Fixing more of those Hash256 ambiguities.
(I'm not sure why the nim-web3 library introduced a conflicting type
named Hash256, but right now I just want to get this code to compile again.)
* Bumped a couple of libraries to fix some error messages.
* Needed to get "make fluffy-tools" to pass, too.
* Getting "make nimbus_verified_proxy" to build.
* Clean up some function prototypes
why:
Simplify polymorphic prototype variances for easier maintenance.
* Fix fringe condition crash when importing bogus RLP node
why:
Accessing non-list RLP entry as a list causes `Defect`
* Fix left boundary proof at range extractor
why:
Was insufficient. The main problem was that there was no unit test for
the validity of the generated left boundary.
* Handle incomplete left boundary proofs early
why:
Attempt to do it later leads to overly complex code in order to prevent
looping when the same peer repeats to send the same incomplete proof.
Contrary, gaps in the leaf sequence can be handled gracefully with
registering the gaps
* Implement a manual pivot setup mechanism for snap sync
why:
For a test scenario it is convenient to set the pivot to something
lower than the beacon header from the consensus layer. This does not
need rely on any RPC mechanism.
details:
The file containing the pivot specs is specified by the
`--sync-ctrl-file` option. It is regularly parsed for updates.
* Fix calculation error
why:
Prevent from calculating negative square root
* Renaming androgynous sub-object names according to where they belong
why:
These objects are not explicitly dealt with. They give meaning to
some generic wrapper objects. Naming them after their origin may
help troubleshooting.
* Redefine proof nodes list data type for `snap/1` wire protocol
why:
The current specification suffered from the fact that the basic data
type for a proof node is an RLP encoded hexary node. This slightly
confused the encoding/decoding magic.
details:
This is the second attempt, now wrapping the `seq[Blob]` into a
wrapper object of `seq[SnapProof]` for a distinct alias sequence.
In the previous attempt, `SnapProof` was a wrapper object holding the
`Blob` with magic applied to the `seq[]`. This needed the `append`
mixin to strip the outer wrapper that was applied to the `Blob` already
when it was passed as argument.
* Fix some prototype inconsistency
why:
For easy reading, `getAccountRange()` handler return code should
resemble the `accoundRange()` anruments prototype.
* Fix locked database file annoyance with unit tests on Windows
why:
Need to clean up old files first from previous session as files remain
locked despite closing of database.
* Fix initialisation order
detail:
Apparently this has no real effect as the ticker is only initialised
here but started later.
This possible bug has been in all for a while and was running with the
previous compiler and libraries.
* Better naming of data fields for sync descriptors
details:
* BuddyRef[S,W]: buddy.data -> buddy.only
* CtxRef[S]: ctx.data -> ctx.pool
* Refactoring in preparation for time-based forking.
* Timestamp-based hard-fork-transition.
* Workaround SideEffect issue / compiler bug for both failing locations in Portal history code

* Redefine `seq[Blob]` => `seq[SnapProof]` for `snap/1` protocol
why:
Proof nodes are traded as `Blob` type items rather than Nim objects. So
the RLP transcoder must not extra wrap proofs which are of type
seq[Blob]. Without custom encoding one would produce a
`list(blob(item1), blob(item2) ..)` instead of `list(item1, item2 ..)`.
* Limit leaf extractor by RLP size rather than number of items
why:
To be used serving `snap/1` requests, the result of function
`hexaryRangeLeafsProof()` is limited by the maximal space
needed to serialise the result which will be part of the
`snap/1` repsonse.
* Let the range extractor `hexaryRangeLeafsProof()` return RLP list sizes
why:
When collecting accounts, the size oft the accounts list when encoded
as RLP is continually updated. So the summed up value is available
anyway. For the proof nodes list, there are not many (~ 10) so summing
up is not expensive here.
* 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
* Unit tests to verify calculations based on hard coded constants
why:
Sizes of RLP encoded objects are available at run time only.
* Changed argument order for `hexaryRangeLeafsProof()` prototype
why:
Better to read as a stand-alone function (arguments were optimised
for functional pipelines)
* Run sub-range proof tests for extracted ranges
* Cosmetics
details:
+ Update doc generator
+ Fix key type representation in `hexary_desc` for debugging
+ Redefine `isImportOk()` as template for better `check()` line reporting
* Fix fringe condition when interpolating Merkle-Patricia tries
details:
Small change with profound effect fixing some pathological condition
that haunted the unit test set on large data sers. There is still one
condition left which might well be due to an incomplete data set.
* Unit test proof nodes for node range extractor
* Unit tests to run on full extraction set
why:
Left over from troubleshooting, range length was only 5
* Reduce Nim 1.6 compiler warnings/hints for Fluffy and Nimbus proxy
Mostly raises Defect removals, TaintedString removal and some
unnecessary imports.
Also updating the copyright years alongside.
* Further reduce Nim 1.6 compiler warnings/hints for Nimbus
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 5, common
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 6, db, rpc, utils
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 7, randomly collected source files
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Silence some compiler gossip -- part 8, assorted tests
details:
Mostly removing redundant imports and `Defect` tracer after switch
to nim 1.6
* Clique update
why:
More impossible exceptions (undoes temporary fix from previous PR)
* Update comments and test noise
* Fix boundary proofs
why:
Where neither used in production, nor unit tested. For production, other
methods apply to test leaf range integrity directly based of the proof
nodes.
* Added `hexary_range()`: interval range + proof extractor
details:
+ Will be used for `snap/1` protocol handler
+ Unit tests added (also for testing left boundary proof)
todo:
Need to verify completeness of proof nodes
* Reduce some nim 1.6 compiler noise
* Stop unit test gossip for ci tests
* Updated to the latest nim-eth, nim-rocksdb, nim-web3
* Bump nimbus-eth2 module and fix related issues
Temporarily disabling Portal beacon light client network as it is
a lot of copy pasted code that did not yet take into account
forks. This will require a bigger rework and was not yet tested
in an actual network anyhow.
* More nimbus fixes after module bumps

Two unresolved items currently:
- Three tests that are temporarily disabled as they fail in the
macro_assembler code, which seems to be due to an ambigious
identifier Stop (Ops and chronos ServerCommand enum).
- i386 CI disabled as it fails at Nim compilation already. Failed
tests where already ignored for this target.
why:
Clique relies on the even/odd position of an address after sorting. For
address generation, the Nim PRNG was used which seems to have changed
with Nim 1.6.11 (Linux, Windoes only.)
As a replace, the Posix.1-2001 example (two-liner calculation) generator
is used.
* Extracted RocksDB timing unit tests into separate file
why:
make space for more in main module :)
* Extracted `inspectionRunner()` unit tests into separate file
why:
make space for more in main module :)
* Extracted `storagesRunner()` unit tests into separate file
why:
make space for more in main module :)
* Extracted pivot checkpoint store/retrieval unit tests into separate file
why:
make space for more in main module :)
* Extract helper functions into separate source file
* Extracted account import unit tests into separate file
why:
make space for more in main module :)
* Rename `test_decompose()` => `test_NodeRangeDecompose()`
why:
There will be more functions with `test_NodeRange` prefix.
The `BlockHeader` structure in `nim-eth` was updated with support for
EIP-4844 (danksharding). To enable the `nim-eth` bump, the ingress of
`BlockHeader` structures has been hardened to reject headers that have
the new `excessDataGas` field until proper EIP4844 support exists.
https://github.com/status-im/nim-eth/pull/570
* 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
* Add quick hexary trie inspector, called `dismantle()`
why:
+ Full hexary trie perusal is slow if running down leaf nodes
+ For known range of leaf nodes, work out the UInt126-complement of
partial sub-trie paths (for existing nodes). The result should cover
no (or only a few) sub-tries with leaf nodes.
* Extract common healing methods => `sub_tries_helper.nim`
details:
Also apply quick hexary trie inspection tool `dismantle()`
Replace `inspectAccountsTrie()` wrapper by `hexaryInspectTrie()`
* Re-arrange task dispatching in main peer worker
* Refactor accounts and storage slots downloaders
* Rename `HexaryDbError` => `HexaryError`
The `BlockHeader` structure in `nim-eth` was updated with support for
EIP-4895 (withdrawals). To enable the `nim-eth` bump, the ingress of
`BlockHeader` structures has been hardened to reject headers that have
the new `withdrawalsRoot` field until proper withdrawals support exists.
https://github.com/status-im/nim-eth/pull/562
* Stop negotiating pivot if peer repeatedly replies w/usesless answers
why:
There is some fringe condition where a peer replies with legit but
useless empty headers repetely. This goes on until somebody stops.
We stop now.
* Rename `missingNodes` => `sickSubTries`
why:
These (probably missing) nodes represent in reality fully or partially
missing sub-tries. The top nodes may even exist, e.g. as a shallow
sub-trie.
also:
Keep track of account healing on/of by bool variable `accountsHealing`
controlled in `pivot_helper.execSnapSyncAction()`
* Add `nimbus` option argument `snapCtx` for starting snap recovery (if any)
also:
+ Trigger the recovery (or similar) process from inside the global peer
worker initialisation `worker.setup()` and not by the `snap.start()`
function.
+ Have `runPool()` returned a `bool` code to indicate early stop to
scheduler.
* Can import partial snap sync checkpoint at start
details:
+ Modified what is stored with the checkpoint in `snapdb_pivot.nim`
+ Will be loaded within `runDaemon()` if activated
* Forgot to import total coverage range
why:
Only the top (or latest) pivot needs coverage but the total coverage
is the list of all ranges for all pivots -- simply forgotten.
* Piecemeal trie inspection
details:
Trie inspection will stop after maximum number of nodes visited.
The inspection can be resumed using the returned state from the
last session.
why:
This feature allows for task switch between `piecemeal` sessions.
* Extract pivot helper code from `worker.nim` => `pivot_helper.nim`
* Accounts import will now return dangling paths from `proof` nodes
why:
With proper bookkeeping, this can be used to start healing without
analysing the the probably full trie.
* Update `unprocessed` account range handling
why:
More generally, the API of a pairs of unprocessed intervals favours
the first set and not before that is exhausted the second set comes
into play.
This was unfortunately implemented which caused the ranges to be
unnecessarily fractioned. Now the number of range interval typically
remains in the lower single digit numbers.
* Save sync state after end of downloading some accounts
details:
restore/resume to be implemented later
* Update log ticker, using time interval rather than ticker count
why:
Counting and logging ticker occurrences is inherently imprecise. So
time intervals are used.
* Use separate storage tables for snap sync data
* Left boundary proof update
why:
Was not properly implemented, yet.
* Capture pivot in peer worker (aka buddy) tasks
why:
The pivot environment is linked to the `buddy` descriptor. While
there is a task switch, the pivot may change. So it is passed on as
function argument `env` rather than retrieved from the buddy at
the start of a sub-function.
* Split queues `fetchStorage` into `fetchStorageFull` and `fetchStoragePart`
* Remove obsolete account range returned from `GetAccountRange` message
why:
Handler returned the wrong right value of the range. This range was
for convenience, only.
* Prioritise storage slots if the queue becomes large
why:
Currently, accounts processing is prioritised up until all accounts
are downloaded. The new prioritisation has two thresholds for
+ start processing storage slots with a new worker
+ stop account processing and switch to storage processing
also:
Provide api for `SnapTodoRanges` pair of range sets in `worker_desc.nim`
* Generalise left boundary proof for accounts or storage slots.
why:
Detailed explanation how this works is documented with
`snapdb_accounts.importAccounts()`.
Instead of enforcing a left boundary proof (which is still the default),
the importer functions return a list of `holes` (aka node paths) found in
the argument ranges of leaf nodes. This in turn is used by the book
keeping software for data download.
* Forgot to pass on variable in function wrapper
also:
+ Start healing not before 99% accounts covered (previously 95%)
+ Logging updated/prettified
* Added basic async capabilities for vm2.
This is a whole new Git branch, not the same one as last time
(https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1/pull/1250) - there wasn't
much worth salvaging. Main differences:
I didn't do the "each opcode has to specify an async handler" junk
that I put in last time. Instead, in oph_memory.nim you can see
sloadOp calling asyncChainTo and passing in an async operation.
That async operation is then run by the execCallOrCreate (or
asyncExecCallOrCreate) code in interpreter_dispatch.nim.
In the test code, the (previously existing) macro called "assembler"
now allows you to add a section called "initialStorage", specifying
fake data to be used by the EVM computation run by that test. (In
the long run we'll obviously want to write tests that for-real use
the JSON-RPC API to asynchronously fetch data; for now, this was
just an expedient way to write a basic unit test that exercises the
async-EVM code pathway.)
There's also a new macro called "concurrentAssemblers" that allows
you to write a test that runs multiple assemblers concurrently (and
then waits for them all to finish). There's one example test using
this, in test_op_memory_lazy.nim, though you can't actually see it
doing so unless you uncomment some echo statements in
async_operations.nim (in which case you can see the two concurrently
running EVM computations each printing out what they're doing, and
you'll see that they interleave).
A question: is it possible to make EVMC work asynchronously? (For
now, this code compiles and "make test" passes even if ENABLE_EVMC
is turned on, but it doesn't actually work asynchronously, it just
falls back on doing the usual synchronous EVMC thing. See
FIXME-asyncAndEvmc.)
* Moved the AsyncOperationFactory to the BaseVMState object.
* Made the AsyncOperationFactory into a table of fn pointers.
Also ditched the plain-data Vm2AsyncOperation type; it wasn't
really serving much purpose. Instead, the pendingAsyncOperation
field directly contains the Future.
* Removed the hasStorage idea.
It's not the right solution to the "how do we know whether we
still need to fetch the storage value or not?" problem. I
haven't implemented the right solution yet, but at least
we're better off not putting in a wrong one.
* Added/modified/removed some comments.
(Based on feedback on the PR.)
* Removed the waitFor from execCallOrCreate.
There was some back-and-forth in the PR regarding whether nested
waitFor calls are acceptable:
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth1/pull/1260#discussion_r998587449
The eventual decision was to just change the waitFor to a doAssert
(since we probably won't want this extra functionality when running
synchronously anyway) to make sure that the Future is already
finished.
* Re-arrange fetching storage slots in batch module
why;
Previously, fetching partial slot ranges first has a chance of
terminating the worker peer 9due to network error) while there were
many inheritable storage slots on the queue.
Now, inheritance is checked first, then full slot ranges and finally
partial ranges.
* Update logging
* Bundled node information for healing into single object `NodeSpecs`
why:
Previously, partial paths and node keys were kept in separate variables.
This approach was error prone due to copying/reassembling function
argument objects.
As all partial paths, keys, and node data types are more or less handled
as `Blob`s over the network (using Eth/6x, or Snap/1) it makes sense to
hold these `Blob`s as named field in a single object (even if not all
fields are active for the current purpose.)
* For good housekeeping, using `NodeKey` type only for account keys
why:
previously, a mixture of `NodeKey` and `Hash256` was used. Now, only
state or storage root keys use the `Hash256` type.
* Always accept latest pivot (and not a slightly older one)
why;
For testing it was tried to use a slightly older pivot state root than
available. Some anecdotal tests seemed to suggest an advantage so that
more peers are willing to serve on that older pivot. But this could not
be confirmed in subsequent tests (still anecdotal, though.)
As a side note, the distance of the latest pivot to its predecessor is
at least 128 (or whatever the constant `minPivotBlockDistance` is
assigned to.)
* Reshuffle name components for some file and function names
why:
Clarifies purpose:
"storages" becomes: "storage slots"
"store" becomes: "range fetch"
* Stash away currently unused modules in sub-folder named "notused"
* 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.
