It seems there is no fully typed library implementation of an LRU cache.
So I wrote one. Method names are the same as github.com/hashicorp/golang-lru,
and the new type can be used as a drop-in replacement.
Two reasons to do this:
- It's much easier to understand what a cache is for when the types are right there.
- Performance: the new implementation is slightly faster and performs zero memory
allocations in Add when the cache is at capacity. Overall, memory usage of the cache
is much reduced because keys are values are no longer wrapped in interface.
Instead of using a limit of three nodes per message, we can pack more nodes
into each message based on ENR size. In my testing, this halves the number
of sent NODES messages, because ENR size is usually < 300 bytes.
This also adds RLP helper functions that compute the encoded size of
[]byte and string.

Noticed that lookupDistances for FINDNODE requests didn't consider 256 a valid
distance. This is actually part of the example in the comment above the
function, surprised that wasn't tested before.
This changes the CI / release builds to use the latest Go version. It also
upgrades golangci-lint to a newer version compatible with Go 1.19.
In Go 1.19, godoc has gained official support for links and lists. The
syntax for code blocks in doc comments has changed and now requires a
leading tab character. gofmt adapts comments to the new syntax
automatically, so there are a lot of comment re-formatting changes in this
PR. We need to apply the new format in order to pass the CI lint stage with
Go 1.19.
With the linter upgrade, I have decided to disable 'gosec' - it produces
too many false-positive warnings. The 'deadcode' and 'varcheck' linters
have also been removed because golangci-lint warns about them being
unmaintained. 'unused' provides similar coverage and we already have it
enabled, so we don't lose much with this change.
The p2p msgrate tracker is a thing which tries to estimate some mean round-trip times. However, it did so in a very curious way: if a node had 200 peers, it would sort their 200 respective rtt estimates, and then it would pick item number 2 as the mean. So effectively taking third fastest and calling it mean. This probably works "ok" when the number of peers are low (there are other factors too, such as ttlScaling which takes some of the edge off this) -- however when the number of peers is high, it becomes very skewed.
This PR instead bases the 'mean' on the square root of the length of the list. Still pretty harsh, but a bit more lenient.
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.
This commit replaces ioutil.TempDir with t.TempDir in tests. The
directory created by t.TempDir is automatically removed when the test
and all its subtests complete.
Prior to this commit, temporary directory created using ioutil.TempDir
had to be removed manually by calling os.RemoveAll, which is omitted in
some tests. The error handling boilerplate e.g.
defer func() {
if err := os.RemoveAll(dir); err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
}
is also tedious, but t.TempDir handles this for us nicely.

This change makes use of the new code generator rlp/rlpgen to improve the
performance of RLP encoding for Header and StateAccount. It also speeds up
encoding of ReceiptForStorage using the new rlp.EncoderBuffer API.
The change is much less transparent than I wanted it to be, because Header and
StateAccount now have an EncodeRLP method defined with pointer receiver. It
used to be possible to encode non-pointer values of these types, but the new
method prevents that and attempting to encode unadressable values (even if
part of another value) will return an error. The error can be surprising and may
pop up in places that previously didn't expect any errors.
To make things work, I also needed to update all code paths (mostly in unit tests)
that lead to encoding of non-pointer values, and pass a pointer instead.

Some benchmarks in eth/filters were not good: they weren't reproducible, relying on geth chaindata to be present.
Another one was rejected because the receipt was lacking a backing transcation.
The p2p simulation benchmark had a lot of the warnings below, due to the framework calling both
Stop() and Close(). Apparently, the simulated adapter is the only implementation which has a Close(),
and there is no need to call both Stop and Close on it.
* core: fix warning flagging the use of DeepEqual on error
* apply the same change everywhere possible
* revert change that was committed by mistake
* fix build error
* Update config.go
* revert changes to ConfigCompatError
* review feedback

This PR ensures that wiping all data associated with a node (apart from its nodekey)
will not generate already used sequence number for the ENRs, since all remote nodes
would reject them until they out-number the previously published largest one.
The big complication with this scheme is that every local update to the ENR can
potentially bump the sequence number by one. In order to ensure that local updates
do not outrun the clock, the sequence number is a millisecond-precision timestamp,
and updates are throttled to occur at most once per millisecond.

In p2p/dial.go, conn.flags was accessed without using sync/atomic.
This race is fixed by removing the access.
In p2p/enode/iter_test.go, a similar race is resolved by writing the field atomically.
