* unify `staterunner` and `blockrunner` CLI flags, especially around
tracing
* added support for struct logger or json logging (although having issue
#30658)
* new --cross-check flag to validate the stateless witness collection
/ execution matches stateful
* adds support for tracing the stateless execution when a tracer is set
(to more easily debug differences)
* --human for more readable test summary
* directory or file input, so if you pass tests/spec-tests/fixtures/blockchain_tests it will execute all
blockchain tests
This PR moves the logging/tracing-facilities out of `*state.StateDB`,
in to a wrapping struct which implements `vm.StateDB` instead.
In most places, it is a pretty straight-forward change:
- First, hoisting the invocations from state objects up to the statedb.
- Then making the mutation-methods simply return the previous value, so
that the external logging layer could log everything.
Some internal code uses the direct object-accessors to mutate the state,
particularly in testing and in setting up state overrides, which means
that these changes are unobservable for the hooked layer. Thus, configuring
the overrides are not necessarily part of the API we want to publish.
The trickiest part about the layering is that when the selfdestructs are
finally deleted during `Finalise`, there's the possibility that someone
sent some ether to it, which is burnt at that point, and thus needs to
be logged. The hooked layer reaches into the inner layer to figure out
these events.
In package `vm`, the conversion from `state.StateDB + hooks` into a
hooked `vm.StateDB` is performed where needed.

~~Opening this as a draft to have a discussion.~~ Pressed the wrong
button
I had [a previous PR
](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/pull/24616)a long time ago
which reduced the peak memory used during reorgs by not accumulating all
transactions and logs.
This PR reduces the peak memory further by not storing the blocks in
memory.
However this means we need to pull the blocks back up from storage
multiple times during the reorg.
I collected the following numbers on peak memory usage:
// Master: BenchmarkReorg-8 10000 899591 ns/op 820154 B/op 1440
allocs/op 1549443072 bytes of heap used
// WithoutOldChain: BenchmarkReorg-8 10000 1147281 ns/op 943163 B/op
1564 allocs/op 1163870208 bytes of heap used
// WithoutNewChain: BenchmarkReorg-8 10000 1018922 ns/op 943580 B/op
1564 allocs/op 1171890176 bytes of heap used
Each block contains a transaction with ~50k bytes and we're doing a 10k
block reorg, so the chain should be ~500MB in size

This PR integrates witness-enabled block production, witness-creating
payload execution and stateless cross-validation into the `engine` API.
The purpose of the PR is to enable the following use-cases (for API
details, please see next section):
- Cross validating locally created blocks:
- Call `forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitness` instead of `forkchoiceUpdated` to
trigger witness creation too.
- Call `getPayload` as before to retrieve the new block and also the
above created witness.
- Call `executeStatelessPayload` against another client to
cross-validate the block.
- Cross validating locally processed blocks:
- Call `newPayloadWithWitness` instead of `newPayload` to trigger
witness creation too.
- Call `executeStatelessPayload` against another client to
cross-validate the block.
- Block production for stateless clients (local or MEV builders):
- Call `forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitness` instead of `forkchoiceUpdated` to
trigger witness creation too.
- Call `getPayload` as before to retrieve the new block and also the
above created witness.
- Propagate witnesses across the consensus libp2p network for stateless
Ethereum.
- Stateless validator validation:
- Call `executeStatelessPayload` with the propagated witness to
statelessly validate the block.
*Note, the various `WithWitness` methods could also *just be* an
additional boolean flag on the base methods, but this PR wanted to keep
the methods separate until a final consensus is reached on how to
integrate in production.*
---
The following `engine` API types are introduced:
```go
// StatelessPayloadStatusV1 is the result of a stateless payload execution.
type StatelessPayloadStatusV1 struct {
Status string `json:"status"`
StateRoot common.Hash `json:"stateRoot"`
ReceiptsRoot common.Hash `json:"receiptsRoot"`
ValidationError *string `json:"validationError"`
}
```
- Add `forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitnessV1,2,3` with same params and returns
as `forkchoiceUpdatedV1,2,3`, but triggering a stateless witness
building if block production is requested.
- Extend `getPayloadV2,3` to return `executionPayloadEnvelope` with an
additional `witness` field of type `bytes` iff created via
`forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitnessV2,3`.
- Add `newPayloadWithWitnessV1,2,3,4` with same params and returns as
`newPayloadV1,2,3,4`, but triggering a stateless witness creation during
payload execution to allow cross validating it.
- Extend `payloadStatusV1` with a `witness` field of type `bytes` if
returned by `newPayloadWithWitnessV1,2,3,4`.
- Add `executeStatelessPayloadV1,2,3,4` with same base params as
`newPayloadV1,2,3,4` and one more additional param (`witness`) of type
`bytes`. The method returns `statelessPayloadStatusV1`, which mirrors
`payloadStatusV1` but replaces `latestValidHash` with `stateRoot` and
`receiptRoot`.
This pull request introduces a state.Reader interface for state
accessing.
The interface could be implemented in various ways. It can be pure trie
only reader, or the combination of trie and state snapshot. What's more,
this interface allows us to have more flexibility in the future, e.g.
the
archive reader (for accessing archive state).
Additionally, this pull request removes the following metrics
- `chain/snapshot/account/reads`
- `chain/snapshot/storage/reads`
This PR changes how sidechains are handled.
Before the merge, it was possible to import a chain with lower td and not set it as canonical. After the merge, we expect every chain that we get via InsertChain to be canonical. Non-canonical blocks can still be inserted
with InsertBlockWIthoutSetHead.
If during the InsertChain, the existing chain is not canonical anymore, we mark it as a sidechain and send the SideChainEvents normally.
This pull request adds a few more performance metrics, specifically:
- The average time cost of an account read
- The average time cost of a storage read
- The rate of account reads
- The rate of storage reads
* all: add stateless verifications
* all: simplify witness and integrate it into live geth

Here we add a Go API for running tracing plugins within the main block import process.
As an advanced user of geth, you can now create a Go file in eth/tracers/live/, and within
that file register your custom tracer implementation. Then recompile geth and select your tracer
on the command line. Hooks defined in the tracer will run whenever a block is processed.
The hook system is defined in package core/tracing. It uses a struct with callbacks, instead of
requiring an interface, for several reasons:
- We plan to keep this API stable long-term. The core/tracing hook API does not depend on
on deep geth internals.
- There are a lot of hooks, and tracers will only need some of them. Using a struct allows you
to implement only the hooks you want to actually use.
All existing tracers in eth/tracers/native have been rewritten to use the new hook system.
This change breaks compatibility with the vm.EVMLogger interface that we used to have.
If you are a user of vm.EVMLogger, please migrate to core/tracing, and sorry for breaking
your stuff. But we just couldn't have both the old and new tracing APIs coexist in the EVM.

This change simplifies the logic for indexing transactions and enhances the UX when transaction is not found by returning more information to users.
Transaction indexing is now considered as a part of the initial sync, and `eth.syncing` will thus be `true` if transaction indexing is not yet finished. API consumers can use the syncing status to determine if the node is ready to serve users.
This chang creates a GaugeInfo metrics type for registering informational (textual) metrics, e.g. geth version number. It also improves the testing for backend-exporters, and uses a shared subpackage in 'internal' to provide sample datasets and ordered registry.
Implements #21783

Currently, we trigger the logic to (un)index transactions when the node receives a new
block. However, in some cases the node may not receive new blocks (eg, when the Geth node
is configured without peer discovery, or when it acts as an RPC node for historical-only
data).
In these situations, the Geth node user may not have previously configured txlookuplimit
(i.e. the default of around one year), but later realizes they need to index all
historical blocks. However, adding txlookuplimit=0 and restarting geth has no effect. This
change makes it check for required indexing work once, on startup, to fix the issue.

This PR removes the newly added txpool.Transaction wrapper type, and instead adds a way
of keeping the blob sidecar within types.Transaction. It's better this way because most
code in go-ethereum does not care about blob transactions, and probably never will. This
will start mattering especially on the client side of RPC, where all APIs are based on
types.Transaction. Users need to be able to use the same signing flows they already
have.
However, since blobs are only allowed in some places but not others, we will now need to
add checks to avoid creating invalid blocks. I'm still trying to figure out the best place
to do some of these. The way I have it currently is as follows:
- In block validation (import), txs are verified not to have a blob sidecar.
- In miner, we strip off the sidecar when committing the transaction into the block.
- In TxPool validation, txs must have a sidecar to be added into the blobpool.
- Note there is a special case here: when transactions are re-added because of a chain
reorg, we cannot use the transactions gathered from the old chain blocks as-is,
because they will be missing their blobs. This was previously handled by storing the
blobs into the 'blobpool limbo'. The code has now changed to store the full
transaction in the limbo instead, but it might be confusing for code readers why we're
not simply adding the types.Transaction we already have.
Code changes summary:
- txpool.Transaction removed and all uses replaced by types.Transaction again
- blobpool now stores types.Transaction instead of defining its own blobTx format for storage
- the blobpool limbo now stores types.Transaction instead of storing only the blobs
- checks to validate the presence/absence of the blob sidecar added in certain critical places
The Go authors updated golang/x/ext to change the function signature of the slices sort method.
It's an entire shitshow now because x/ext is not tagged, so everyone's codebase just
picked a new version that some other dep depends on, causing our code to fail building.
This PR updates the dep on our code too and does all the refactorings to follow upstream...
