This is a minimal set of changes to make things work with the new types
in nim-eth - this is the minimal PR that merely resolves
incompatibilities while the full change set would include more cleanup
and migration.
* Add missing leaf cache update when a leaf turns to a branch with two
leaves (on merge) and vice versa (on delete) - this could lead to stale
leaves being returned from the cache causing validation failures - it
didn't happen because the leaf caches were not being used efficiently :)
* Replace `seq` with `ArrayBuf` in `Hike` allowing it to become
allocation-free - this PR also works around an inefficiency in nim in
returning large types via a `var` parameter
* Use the leaf cache instead of `getVtxRc` to fetch recent leaves - this
makes the vertex cache more efficient at caching branches because fewer
leaf requests pass through it.
Compared to `keyed_queue`, `minilru` uses significantly less memory, in
particular for the 32-byte hash keys where `kq` stores several copies of
the key redundantly.
* pre-allocate `blobify` data and remove redundant error handling
(cannot fail on correct data)
* use threadvar for temporary storage when decoding rdb, avoiding
closure env
* speed up database walkers by avoiding many temporaries
~5% perf improvement on block import, 100x on database iteration (useful
for building analysis tooling)
* bump metrics
* Remove cruft
* Cosmetics, update some logging, noise control
* Renamed `CoreDb` function `hasKey` => `hasKeyRc` and provided `hasKey`
why:
Currently, `hasKey` returns a `Result[]` rather than a `bool` which
is what one would expect from a function prototype of this name.
This was a bit of an annoyance and cost unnecessary attention.
* Remove redundant `eth/68` message and clean up docu
details:
There is only eth/68 available at the moment
* Allow to turn on chronicles line number logging in `Makefile`
* Accept (and forget) tx hashes announcements
why:
Does no harm to just ignore it at the moment
* Bump nim-eth (rlp fix)
* Update state network to use addressHash instead of address in contract trie and contract code content keys.
* Fix path calculation bug in getParent when working with extension nodes.
* Bump portal spec tests repo.
* Finish updating tests due to portal test vector changes.
* Update Fluffy state bridge to use addressHash.
* Update Fluffy book with correct commands for running portal hive tests.
The 3 proofs can be reworked to two proofs as we can use the
BeaconBlock directly instead of BeaconBlockHeader and
BeaconBlockBody. This is possible because the HTR of the
BeaconBlock is the same as the one of the BeaconBlockHeader.
This results in 32 bytes less as an intermediate hash can be
removed. But more importantly looks more clean and compact in
structure and code.
- EpochAccumulator got renamed to EpochRecord
- MasterAccumulator is not HistoricalHashesAccumulator
- The List size for the accumulator got a different maximum which
also result in a different encoding and HTR
