* Code cosmetics * Re-org `aristo_merge`, internally split into sub-modules why: Became a burden for maintenance because it hosts two different functionalities under the same merge paradigm: account/data merge and snap proof merge where the latter produces a partial trie. * Fix CoreDb tracer * Ledger: fix potential account vs. storage tree sync problems * Remove bound on the size of removable whole storage trees * Activate `test_tracer_json`
Core database replacement wrapper object
This wrapper replaces the TrieDatabaseRef and its derivatives by the new object CoreDbRef.
Relations to current TrieDatabaseRef implementation
Here are some incomplete translations for objects and constructors.
Object types:
| Legacy notation | CoreDbRef based replacement |
|---|---|
| ChainDB | (don't use/avoid) |
| ChainDbRef | CoreDbRef |
| TrieDatabaseRef | CoreDbKvtRef |
| HexaryTrie | CoreDbMptRef |
| SecureHexaryTrie | CoreDbPhkRef |
| DbTransaction | CoreDbTxRef |
| TransactionID | CoreDbTxID |
Constructors:
| Legacy notation | CoreDbRef based replacement |
|---|---|
| trieDB newChainDB("..") | newCoreDbRef(LegacyDbPersistent,"..") |
| newMemoryDB() | newCoreDbRef(LegacyDbMemory) |
| -- | |
| initHexaryTrie(db,..) | db.mpt(..) (no pruning) |
| db.mptPrune(..) (w/pruning true/false) | |
| -- | |
| initSecureHexaryTrie(db,..) | db.phk(..) (no pruning) |
| db.phkPrune(..) (w/pruning true/false) | |
| -- | |
| newCaptureDB(db,memDB) | db.capture() (see below) |
Usage of the replacement wrapper
Objects pedigree:
CoreDbRef -- base descriptor
| | |
| | +--- CoreDbCtxRef -- MPT context descriptor
| | | |
| | | +-- CoreDbMptRef -- hexary trie instance
| | | | : :
| | | +-- CoreDbMptRef -- hexary trie instance
| | |
| | |
| | +---- CoreDbPhkRef -- pre-hashed key hexary trie instance
| | | : :
| | +---- CoreDbPhkRef -- pre-hashed key hexary trie instance
| |
| |
| +------ CoreDbKvtRef -- single static key-value table
|
|
+-------- CoreDbCaptRef -- tracer support descriptor
Instantiating legacy standard database object descriptors works as follows:
let
db = newCoreDbRef(..) # new base descriptor
mpt = db.mpt(..) # hexary trie/Merkle Patricia Tree
phk = db.phk(..) # pre-hashed key hexary trie/MPT
kvt = db.kvt # key-value table
Tracer support setup by hiding the current CoreDbRef behind a replacement:
let
capture = db.capture()
db = capture.recorder # use the recorder in place of db
...
for key,value in capture.recorder.kvt:
... # process recorded data
