* Error return in `persistBlocks()` on initial `VmState` roblem
why:
previously threw an exception
* Updated sync mode option
why:
using enum rather than bool => space for more
* Added sync mode `full`, re-factued legacy sync
also:
rebased
* Fix typo (crashes `pesistBlocks()` otherwise)
also:
rebase to master
* Reduce log ticker noise by suppressing duplicate messages
* Clarify staged queue overflow handling
why:
backtrack/re-org mode in `stageItem()` should be detected by both,
the global indicator or the work item where it might have moved into.
also:
rebased
* Remove unused import of config to avoid select_backend db import
- Importing nimbus-eth1 config.nim causes import of select_backend
which will default cause an import of kvstore_rocksdb and thus a
require rocksdb. Remove unused one to avoid rocksdb dependency
for Fluffy.
- Remove some whitespace in bridge_client (to make fluffy CI
trigger for sure).
* Use specific cache keys for fluffy CI workflow
* Disable Fluffy CI reproducibility test
why:
Testing against a replay unit test for Devnet4 made it necessary to
adjust the TTD handling. Without updated, importing fails at block #5646
which is the parent of the terminal PoW block. Similar considerations
apply for Devnet5 and Kiln.
* Redesign of BaseVMState descriptor
why:
BaseVMState provides an environment for executing transactions. The
current descriptor also provides data that cannot generally be known
within the execution environment, e.g. the total gasUsed which is
available not before after all transactions have finished.
Also, the BaseVMState constructor has been replaced by a constructor
that does not need pre-initialised input of the account database.
also:
Previous constructor and some fields are provided with a deprecated
annotation (producing a lot of noise.)
* Replace legacy directives in production sources
* Replace legacy directives in unit test sources
* fix CI (missing premix update)
* Remove legacy directives
* chase CI problem
* rebased
* Re-introduce 'AccountsCache' constructor optimisation for 'BaseVmState' re-initialisation
why:
Constructing a new 'AccountsCache' descriptor can be avoided sometimes
when the current state root is properly positioned already. Such a
feature existed already as the update function 'initStateDB()' for the
'BaseChanDB' where the accounts cache was linked into this desctiptor.
The function 'initStateDB()' was removed and re-implemented into the
'BaseVmState' constructor without optimisation. The old version was of
restricted use as a wrong accounts cache state would unconditionally
throw an exception rather than conceptually ask for a remedy.
The optimised 'BaseVmState' re-initialisation has been implemented for
the 'persistBlocks()' function.
also:
moved some test helpers to 'test/replay' folder
* Remove unused & undocumented fields from Chain descriptor
why:
Reduces attack surface in general & improves reading the code.
previously, every time the VMState was created, it will also create
new stateDB, and this action will nullify the advantages of cached accounts.
the new changes will conserve the accounts cache if the executed blocks
are contiguous. if not the stateDB need to be reinited.
this changes also allow rpcCallEvm and rpcEstimateGas executed properly
using current stateDB instead of creating new one each time they are called.
The rationale in EIP-6[1] for changing names to `selfDestruct` applies to code
as much as it does to specs. Also, Ethereum uses the new names consistently,
so it's useful for our code to match the terms used in later EIP specs and
testsuite entries.
This change is straightforward, and is a prerequisite for patches to come that
do things with the `selfDestruct` fields.

why:
the v2 prefix of the file name was used as a visual aid when
comparing vm2 against vm sources
details:
all renamed v2*.nim sources compile locally with the -d:kludge:1 flag
set or without (some work with either)
only sources not renamed yet: v2state_transactions.nim
why:
these files provide part of the externally accessible interface
provided by vm_state*.nim. so the new filename indicates that the
source code belongs to vm2 (rather than vm).
why:
these files provide part of the externally accessible interface
provided by vm_types*.nim. so the new filename indicates that the
source code belongs to vm2 (rather than vm).
why:
making sure that deep links into vm2 sources are configured properly. it
is intended that only the vm_*.nim interface headers are allowed to
source files in vm2. the sentinels just protect from coding errors.
why:
vm2 enabled by ENABLE_VM2=1 behaves as vm without ENABLE_EVMC=1 until
it doesn't in some future fatch set. this leaves some wiggle room
to work on a vm copy without degrading the original implementation.
details:
+ additional make flag ENABLE_VM2=1 (or ENABLE_VM2=0 to explicitely disable)
+ when both flags ENABLE_EVMC=1 and ENABLE_VM2=1 are present, the former
flag ENABLE_EVMC=1 takes precedence, this is implemented at the NIM
compiler level for -d:evmc_enabled and -d:vm2_enabled
