* core/types: make Signer derive address instead of public key
There are two reasons to do this now: The upcoming ethclient signer
doesn't know the public key, just the address. EIP 208 will introduce a
new signer which derives the 'entry point' address for transactions with
zero signature. The entry point has no public key.
Other changes to the interface ease the path make to moving signature
crypto out of core/types later.
* ethclient, mobile: add TransactionSender
The new method can get the right signer without any crypto, and without
knowledge of the signature scheme that was used when the transaction was
included.
When implementing the new bloombits based filter, I've accidentally broke null
topics by removing the special casing of common.Hash{} filter rules, which
acted as the wildcard topic until now.
This PR fixes the regression, but instead of using the magic hash
common.Hash{} as the null wildcard, the PR reworks the code to handle nil
topics during parsing, converting a JSON null into nil []common.Hash topic.
This patch fixes the following issues:
* The contract executes send() when it does not have enough balance.
* The contract always sends a total amount of zero.
This commit introduces a network simulation framework which
can be used to run simulated networks of devp2p nodes. The
intention is to use this for testing protocols, performing
benchmarks and visualising emergent network behaviour.
* params: Updated finalized gascosts for ECMUL/MODEXP
* core,tests: Updates pending new tests
* tests: Updated with new tests
* core: revert state transition bugfix
* tests: Add expected failures due to #15119
* ethdb: add Putter interface and Has method
* ethdb: improve docs and add IdealBatchSize
* ethdb: remove memory batch lock
Batches are not safe for concurrent use.
* core: use ethdb.Putter for Write* functions
This covers the easy cases.
* core/state: simplify StateSync
* trie: optimize local node check
* ethdb: add ValueSize to Batch
* core: optimize HasHeader check
This avoids one random database read get the block number. For many uses
of HasHeader, the expectation is that it's actually there. Using Has
avoids a load + decode of the value.
* core: write fast sync block data in batches
Collect writes into batches up to the ideal size instead of issuing many
small, concurrent writes.
* eth/downloader: commit larger state batches
Collect nodes into a batch up to the ideal size instead of committing
whenever a node is received.
* core: optimize HasBlock check
This avoids a random database read to get the number.
* core: use numberCache in HasHeader
numberCache has higher capacity, increasing the odds of finding the
header without a database lookup.
* core: write imported block data using a batch
Restore batch writes of state and add blocks, tx entries, receipts to
the same batch. The change also simplifies the miner.
This commit also removes posting of logs when a forked block is imported.
* core: fix DB write error handling
* ethdb: use RLock for Has
* core: fix HasBlock comment
