This PR reduces the amount of work we do when answering header queries, e.g. when a peer
is syncing from us.
For some items, e.g block bodies, when we read the rlp-data from database, we plug it
directly into the response package. We didn't do that for headers, but instead read
headers-rlp, decode to types.Header, and re-encode to rlp. This PR changes that to keep it
in RLP-form as much as possible. When a node is syncing from us, it typically requests 192
contiguous headers. On master it has the following effect:
- For headers not in ancient: 2 db lookups. One for translating hash->number (even though
the request is by number), and another for reading by hash (this latter one is sometimes
cached).
- For headers in ancient: 1 file lookup/syscall for translating hash->number (even though
the request is by number), and another for reading the header itself. After this, it
also performes a hashing of the header, to ensure that the hash is what it expected. In
this PR, I instead move the logic for "give me a sequence of blocks" into the lower
layers, where the database can determine how and what to read from leveldb and/or
ancients.
There are basically four types of requests; three of them are improved this way. The
fourth, by hash going backwards, is more tricky to optimize. However, since we know that
the gap is 0, we can look up by the parentHash, and stlil shave off all the number->hash
lookups.
The gapped collection can be optimized similarly, as a follow-up, at least in three out of
four cases.

This PR fixes a special corner case in transaction indexing.
When the chain is rewound by SetHead to a historical point which is even lower than the transaction indexes tail, then system will report Failed to decode block body error all the time, because the relevant blocks are already deleted.
In order to avoid this "non-critical-but-annoying" issue, we can recap the indexing target to head+1(to is excluded, so it means indexing transactions from 0 to head).

This PR offers two more database sub commands for exporting and importing data.
Two exporters are implemented: preimage and snapshot data respectively.
The import command is generic, it can take any data export and import into leveldb.
The data format has a 'magic' for disambiguation, and a version field for future compatibility.
We had been assuming that the `item` returned from batch.commit()
was the item committed, but it's actually the next item to be added
to the freezer, and multiple items can be committed in a single batch.
This commit finds the smallest item in the freezer and iterates from
that to the number returned by commit(), passing any tracked blocks
in that range to plugins.
This PR adds a new accessor method to the freezer database. This new view offers a consistent interface, guaranteeing that all individual tables (headers, bodies etc) are all on the same number, and that this number is not changes (added/truncated) while the operation is performing.
This commit adds a ModifyAncients hook that plugins can implement
to more accurately track what Geth is doing under the hood. We
still support the old AppendAncients interface as best we can,
though internal changes may make it so that it does not behave
as it once did.
Notes: the AppendAncient plugin hook is broken by this commit.
This adds CaptureEnter() and CaptureExit() as no-ops for interface
compliance, but these capabilities should be added for plugin tracers
soon.
* core/types: rm extranous check in test
* core/rawdb: add lightweight types for block logs
* core/rawdb,eth: use lightweight accessor for log filtering
* core/rawdb: add bench for decoding into rlpLogs
This change is a rewrite of the freezer code.
When writing ancient chain data to the freezer, the previous version first encoded each
individual item to a temporary buffer, then wrote the buffer. For small item sizes (for
example, in the block hash freezer table), this strategy causes a lot of system calls for
writing tiny chunks of data. It also allocated a lot of temporary []byte buffers.
In the new version, we instead encode multiple items into a re-useable batch buffer, which
is then written to the file all at once. This avoids performing a system call for every
inserted item.
To make the internal batching work, the ancient database API had to be changed. While
integrating this new API in BlockChain.InsertReceiptChain, additional optimizations were
also added there.

The Append / truncate operations were racy. When a datafile reaches 2Gb, a new file is needed. For this operation, we require a writelock, which is not needed in the 99.99% of all cases where the data does fit in the current head-file.
This transition from readlock to writelock was incorrect, and as the readlock was released, a truncate operation could slip in between, and truncate the data. This would have been fine, however, the Append operation continued writing as if no truncation had occurred, e.g writing item 5 where item 0 should reside.
This PR changes the behaviour, so that if when we run into the situation that a new file is needed, it aborts, and retries, this time with a writelock.
The outcome of the situation described above, running on this PR, would instead be that the Append operation exits with a failure.
This PR introduces:
- db.put to put a value into the database
- db.get to read a value from the database
- db.delete to delete a value from the database
- db.stats to check compaction info from the database
- db.compact to trigger a db compaction
It also moves inspectdb to db.inspect.
This PR implements the following modifications
- Don't shortcut check if block is present, thus avoid disk lookup
- Don't check hash ancestry in early-check (it's still done in parallel checker)
- Don't check time.Now for every single header
Charts and background info can be found here: https://github.com/holiman/headerimport/blob/main/README.md
With these changes, writing 1M headers goes down to from 80s to 62s.
This commit splits the eth package, separating the handling of eth and snap protocols. It also includes the capability to run snap sync (https://github.com/ethereum/devp2p/blob/master/caps/snap.md) , but does not enable it by default.

This PR implements unclean shutdown marker. Every time geth boots, it adds a timestamp to a list of timestamps in the database. This list is capped at 10. At a clean shutdown, the timestamp is removed again.
Thus, when geth exits unclean, the marker remains, and at boot up we show the most recent unclean shutdowns to the user, which makes it easier to diagnose root-causes to certain problems.
