This commit introduces a new Subscription type, which is synonymous with
ethereum.Subscription. It also adds a couple of utilities that make
working with Subscriptions easier. The mot complex utility is Feed, a
synchronisation device that implements broadcast subscriptions. Feed is
slightly faster than TypeMux and will replace uses of TypeMux across the
go-ethereum codebase in the future.
The Subscription type is gone, all uses are replaced by
*TypeMuxSubscription. This change is prep-work for the
introduction of the new Subscription type in a later commit.
gorename -from '"github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/event"::Event' -to TypeMuxEvent
gorename -from '"github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/event"::muxsub' -to TypeMuxSubscription
gofmt -w -r 'Subscription -> *TypeMuxSubscription' ./event/*.go
find . -name '*.go' -and -not -regex '\./vendor/.*' \| xargs gofmt -w -r 'event.Subscription -> *event.TypeMuxSubscription'
This fixes an issue where the following would lead to a panic due to a
channel being closed twice:
* Start mux
* Stop mux
* Sub to mux
* Unsub
This is fixed by setting the subscriptions status to closed resulting in
the Unsubscribe to ignore the request when called.
Moved the filtering system from `event` to `eth/filters` package and
removed the `core.Filter` object. The `filters.Filter` object now
requires a `common.Database` rather than a `eth.Backend` and invokes the
`core.GetBlockByX` directly rather than thru a "manager".
