This PR changes the API so that uint64 is used for fork timestamps.
It's a good choice because types.Header also uses uint64 for time.

This fixes a regression where the flag did not accept values without
the 0x prefix anymore. What's worse, if an invalid value was passed,
the client would just log an INFO level message and continue.
This change introduces a breaking change to miner.etherbase is configured.
Previously, users did not need to explicitly set the etherbase address via flag, since 'first' local account was used as etherbase automatically. This change removes the "default first account" feature.
In Proof-of-stake world, the fee recipient address is provided by CL, and not configured in Geth any more - meaning that miner.etherbase is mostly for legacy networks(pow, clique networks etc).
--syncTarget is a feature for development purpose in post-merge world. Previously
it's added into eth.Config. But it turns out that's a stupid idea.
- syncTarget is a block object, which is hard to be put in config file(large)
- syncTarget is just a dev feature, doesn't make too much sense to add it in config file
So I remove it from the eth config object. And it also fixes the #26328
This PR drops the legacy receipt types, the freezer-migrate command and the startup check. The previous attempt #22852 at this failed because there were users who still had legacy receipts in their db, so it had to be reverted #23247. Since then we added a command to migrate legacy dbs #24028.
As of the last hardforks all users either must have done the migration, or used the --ignore-legacy-receipts flag which will stop working now.
This PR adds a parameter to startup, --synctarget. The synctarget flag is a developer-flag, that can be useful in some scenarios as a replacement for a CL node. It defines a fixed block sync target:
geth --syncmode=full --synctarget=./block_15816882.hex_rlp
The --synctarget is only made available during syncmode=full
This PR fixes a regression causing snapshots not to be generated in "geth --import" mode. It also fixes the geth export command to be truly readonly, and adds a new test for geth export.
This update resolves an issue where StringSliceFlag would not be
rendered correctly in help output + mention that -H can be used multiple times

This PR makes it possible to set custom headers, in particular for two scenarios:
- geth attach
- geth commands which can use --remotedb, e..g geth db inspect
The ability to use custom headers is typically useful for connecting to cloud-apis, e.g. providing an infura- or alchemy key, or for that matter access-keys for environments behind cloudflare.

`geth dumpgenesis` currently does not respect the content of the data directory. Instead, it outputs the genesis block created by command-line flags. This PR fixes it to read the genesis from the database, if the database already exists.

This PR cleans up the configurations for pruner and snapshotter by passing a config struct.
And also, this PR disables the snapshot background generation if the chain is opened in "read-only" mode. The read-only mode is necessary in some cases. For example, we have a list of commands to open the etheruem node in "read-only" mode, like export-chain. In these cases, the snapshot background generation is non expected and should be banned explicitly.
This adds a cache for block logs which is shared by all filters. The cache
size of is configurable using the `--cache.blocklogs` flag.

This change updates our urfave/cli dependency to the v2 branch of the library.
There are some Go API changes in cli v2:
- Flag values can now be accessed using the methods ctx.Bool,
ctx.Int, ctx.String, ... regardless of whether the flag is 'local' or
'global'.
- v2 has built-in support for flag categories. Our home-grown category
system is removed and the categories of flags are assigned as part of
the flag definition.
For users, there is only one observable difference with cli v2: flags must now
strictly appear before regular arguments. For example, the following command is
now invalid:
geth account import mykey.json --password file.txt
Instead, the command must be invoked as follows:
geth account import --password file.txt mykey.json
This enables the following linters
- typecheck
- unused
- staticcheck
- bidichk
- durationcheck
- exportloopref
- gosec
WIth a few exceptions.
- We use a deprecated protobuf in trezor. I didn't want to mess with that, since I cannot meaningfully test any changes there.
- The deprecated TypeMux is used in a few places still, so the warning for it is silenced for now.
- Using string type in context.WithValue is apparently wrong, one should use a custom type, to prevent collisions between different places in the hierarchy of callers. That should be fixed at some point, but may require some attention.
- The warnings for using weak random generator are squashed, since we use a lot of random without need for cryptographic guarantees.
In #24028 we flagged a warning when finding legacy receipts in the freezer. This PR nudges users a bit more strongly by preventing geth from starting in this case until receipts have been migrated.
It also adds a flag --ignore-legacy-receipts which when present allows geth to start normally.
* ethdb/remotedb, cmd: add support for remote (readonly) databases
* ethdb/remotedb: minor changes
* ethdb/remotedb: close the conn
* cmd, ethdb: add rpc accessor for ancient data
* internal/ethapi: license
* ethdb/remotedb: linter fixes
This PR groups all built-in network flags together and list them in the command as a whole.
And all database path flags(datadir, ancient) are also grouped, since usually these two are
used together.
