* 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
* Aristo+RocksDB: Update backend drivers
why:
RocksDB update allows use some of the newly provided methods which
were previously implemented by using the very C backend (for the lack
of NIM methods.)
* Aristo+RocksDB: Simplify drivers wrapper
* Kvt: Update backend drivers and wrappers similar to `Aristo`
* Aristo+Kvm: Use column families for RocksDB
* Aristo+MemoryDB: Code cosmetics
* Aristo: Provide guest column family for export
why:
So `Kvt` can piggyback on `Aristo` so there avoiding to run a second
DBMS system in parallel.
* Kvt: Provide import mechanism for RoksDB guest column family
why:
So `Kvt` can piggyback on `Aristo` so there avoiding to run a second
DBMS system in parallel.
* CoreDb+Aristo: Run persistent `Kvt` DB piggybacked on `Aristo`
why:
Avoiding to run two DBMS systems in parallel.
* Fix copyright year
* Ditto
* Aristo+Kvt: Fix backend `dup()` function in api setup
why:
Backend object is subject to an inheritance cascade which was not
taken care of, before. Only the base object was duplicated.
* Kvt: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Simplify DB clone/peers management
* Aristo: Adjust unit test for working with memory DB only
why:
This currently causes some memory corruption persumably in the
`libc` background layer.
* CoredDb+Kvt: Simplify API for KVT
why:
Simplified storage models (was over engineered) for better performance
and code maintenance.
* CoredDb+Aristo: Simplify API for `Aristo`
why:
Only single database state needed here. Accessing a similar state will
be implemented from outside this module using a context layer. This
gives better performance and improves code maintenance.
* Fix Copyright headers
* CoreDb: Turn off API tracking
why:
CI would ot go through. Was accidentally turned on.
* Aristo/Kvt: Provide function hooks APIs
why:
These APIs can be used for installing tracers, profiling functoinality,
and other niceties on the databases.
* Aristo: Provide optional API profiling
details:
It basically is a re-implementation of the `CoreDb` profiling
implementation
* Kvt: Provide optional API profiling similar to `Aristo`
* CoreDb: Re-implementing profiling using `aristo_profile`
* Ledger: Re-implementing profiling using `aristo_profile`
* CoreDb: Update unit tests for maintainability
* update copyright dates
* Fix debug noise in `hashify()` for perfectly normal situation
why:
Was previously considered a fixable error
* Fix test sample file names
why:
The larger test file `goerli68161.txt.gz` is already in the local
archive. So there is no need to use the smaller one from the external
repo.
* Activate `accounts_cache` module from `db/ledger`
why:
A copy of the original `accounts_cache.nim` source to be integrated
into the `Ledger` module wrapper which allows to switch between
different `accounts_cache` implementations unser tha same API.
details:
At a later state, the `db/accounts_cache.nim` wrapper will be
removed so that there is only one access to that module via
`db/ledger/accounts_cache.nim`.
* Fix copyright headers in source code
* Rewrite remaining `AristoError` return code into `Result[void,AristoError]`
why:
Better code maintenance
* Update import sections
* Update Aristo DB paths
why:
More systematic so directory can be shared with other DB types
* More cosmetcs
* Update unit tests runners
why:
Proper handling of persistent and mem-only DB. The latter can be
consistently triggered by an empty DB path.
* Set scheduler state as part of the backend descriptor
details:
Moved type definitions `QidLayoutRef` and `QidSchedRef` to
`desc_structural.nim` so that it shares the same folder as
`desc_backend.nim`
* Automatic filter queue table initialisation in backend
details:
Scheduler can be tweaked or completely disabled
* Updated backend unit tests
details:
+ some code clean up/beautification, reads better now
+ disabled persistent filters so that there is no automated filter
management which will be implemented next
* Prettify/update unit tests source code
details:
Mostly replacing the `check()` paradigm by `xCheck()`
* Somewhat simplified backend type management
why:
Backend objects are labelled with a `BackendType` symbol where the
`BackendVoid` label is implicitly assumed for a `nil` backend object
reference.
To make it easier, a `kind()` function is used now applicable to
`nil` references as well.
* Fix DB storage layout for filter objects
why:
Need to store the filter ID with the object
* Implement reverse [] index on fifo
why:
An integer index argument on `[]` retrieves the QueueID (label) of the
fifo item while a QueueID argument on `[]` retrieves the index (so
it is inverse to the former variant).
* Provide iterator over filters as fifo
why:
This iterator goes along the cascased fifo structure (i.e. in
historical order)
* Rename FilterID => QueueID
why:
The current usage does not identify a particular filter but uses it as
storage tag to manage it on the database (to be organised in a set of
FIFOs or queues.)
* Split `aristo_filter` source into sub-files
why:
Make space for filter management API
* Store filter queue IDs in pairs on the backend
why:
Any pair will will describe a FIFO accessed by bottom/top IDs
* Reorg some source file names
why:
The "aristo_" prefix for make local/private files is tedious to
use, so removed.
* Implement filter slot scheduler
details:
Filters will be stored on the database on cascaded FIFOs. When a FIFO
queue is full, some filter items are bundled together and stored on the
next FIFO.
