From 09bd6fc0ecbb2ab741fd6399578b807cbeec9ca9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Csaba Kiraly Date: Sat, 9 May 2026 08:50:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] eth/txtracker: pivot collectFinalization to iterate t.txs MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Instead of walking every newly-finalized block from disk, iterate the tracker's existing per-tx state (which already records BlockNum and BlockHash at inclusion time) and confirm canonicality with one cheap GetCanonicalHash lookup per unique BlockNum. The walk-by-block design was the dominant cost during catch-up after a restart: the chain's recent-block LRU does not cover blocks that finalized 32+ blocks ago, so each iteration paid a full RLP decode plus fresh tx.Hash() and types.Sender() against cache-cold *Transaction instances. With ~150 txs/block × ~100µs ECDSA × N blocks of finality to catch up, that scales to seconds-to-minutes of CPU on long restarts — and the per-tx work was waste, since most decoded txs are not tracked. The pivot keeps the same correctness guarantee. Each TxInfo's BlockHash is what we recorded at inclusion; comparing it to the canonical hash at that height confirms the tx really is on the canonical chain (an orphan-block reference would not match). When the recorded hash and canonical hash agree, transition the entry to StatusFinalized; when they disagree, skip — the tx's recorded inclusion was reorged out and the entry will see a fresh inclusion or eviction signal through the normal head/reorg path. Adds GetCanonicalHash to the Chain interface; *core.BlockChain already satisfies it. The mock in the unit tests gains a tiny stub.
