+// - Execution Layer (EL): Responsible for transaction execution, state computation, receipts

+// - Normal operation: Blocks arrive via Engine API, already consensus-validated by CL
+// - We validate: BAL hash matches header commitment, computed state root matches header
+// - We trust: CL has verified proposer signatures, attestations, and finality
+//
+// This is identical to how full nodes operate - they also don't re-verify CL attestations.
+// The only difference is we apply BAL diffs instead of re-executing transactions.

+# Partial State Devnet Testing Guide
+
+This document describes how to test partial statefulness with a local devnet using 2 geth instances.
+
+## Overview
+
+Partial state nodes:
+- Sync all account data (balances, nonces, code hashes)
+- Only store storage for tracked contracts
+- Process blocks using BAL (Block Access Lists) instead of re-executing transactions
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Go 1.22+ installed
+- Two terminal windows
+- Build geth with partial state support:
+ ```bash
+ go build ./cmd/geth
+ ```
+
+## Setup
+
+### Terminal 1: Full Node (creates blocks in dev mode)
+
+```bash
+# Create fresh data directory
+rm -rf /tmp/full-node
+
+# Start full node in dev mode
+./geth --datadir /tmp/full-node \
+ --dev \
+ --dev.period 5 \
+ --port 30303 \
+ --http --http.port 8545 \
+ --http.api eth,net,web3,debug,admin \
+ --verbosity 3
+
+# Get the enode URL (run in another terminal or use geth attach)
+# geth attach /tmp/full-node/geth.ipc --exec admin.nodeInfo.enode
+```
+
+### Terminal 2: Partial State Node (receives blocks via P2P)
+
+First, get the enode from the full node:
+```bash
+ENODE=$(geth attach /tmp/full-node/geth.ipc --exec admin.nodeInfo.enode | tr -d '"')
+echo "Full node enode: $ENODE"
+```
+
+Then start the partial state node:
+```bash
+# Create fresh data directory
+rm -rf /tmp/partial-node
+
+# Start partial state node
+./geth --datadir /tmp/partial-node \
+ --port 30304 \
+ --http --http.port 8546 \
+ --http.api eth,net,web3,debug \
+ --partial-state \
+ --partial-state.contracts 0xContractAddr1,0xContractAddr2 \
+ --bootnodes "$ENODE" \
+ --networkid 1337 \
+ --verbosity 3
+```
+
+Note: Replace `0xContractAddr1,0xContractAddr2` with actual contract addresses you want to track.
+
+## Test Scenarios
+
+### 1. Block Sync Test
+
+Send a transaction on the full node and verify the partial node receives it:
+
+```bash
+# On full node (Terminal 1 or new terminal)
+geth attach /tmp/full-node/geth.ipc
+
+# In geth console, send a transaction
+> eth.sendTransaction({from: eth.coinbase, to: "0x1234567890123456789012345678901234567890", value: web3.toWei(1, "ether")})
+
+# Check block number
+> eth.blockNumber
+```
+
+Verify on partial node:
+```bash
+curl -s -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_blockNumber","params":[],"id":1}' \
+ -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8546 | jq
+```
+
+### 2. Balance Query Test
+
+Both nodes should return the same balance for any account:
+
+```bash
+# Full node
+curl -s -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBalance","params":["0x1234567890123456789012345678901234567890","latest"],"id":1}' \
+ -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8545 | jq
+
+# Partial node
+curl -s -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBalance","params":["0x1234567890123456789012345678901234567890","latest"],"id":1}' \
+ -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8546 | jq
+```
+
+### 3. Storage Query Test
+
+Deploy a contract and test storage access:
+
+```bash
+# Query tracked contract storage (should work)
+curl -s -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getStorageAt","params":["0xTrackedContractAddr","0x0","latest"],"id":1}' \
+ -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8546 | jq
+
+# Query untracked contract storage (should fail or return empty)
+curl -s -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getStorageAt","params":["0xUntrackedContractAddr","0x0","latest"],"id":1}' \
+ -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8546 | jq
+```
+
+### 4. State Root Verification
+
+Verify both nodes have the same state root:
+
+```bash
+# Get latest block from both nodes
+FULL_ROOT=$(curl -s -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBlockByNumber","params":["latest",false],"id":1}' \
+ -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8545 | jq -r '.result.stateRoot')
+
+PARTIAL_ROOT=$(curl -s -X POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBlockByNumber","params":["latest",false],"id":1}' \
+ -H "Content-Type: application/json" localhost:8546 | jq -r '.result.stateRoot')
+
+echo "Full node state root: $FULL_ROOT"
+echo "Partial node state root: $PARTIAL_ROOT"
+
+if [ "$FULL_ROOT" = "$PARTIAL_ROOT" ]; then
+ echo "State roots match!"
+else
+ echo "State roots DO NOT match!"
+fi
+```
+
+## Database Size Comparison
+
+After syncing, compare database sizes:
+
+```bash
+echo "Full node database size:"
+du -sh /tmp/full-node/geth/chaindata
+
+echo "Partial node database size:"
+du -sh /tmp/partial-node/geth/chaindata
+```
+
+The partial node should have a significantly smaller database size due to skipped storage.
+
+## Cleanup
+
+```bash
+# Stop both geth instances (Ctrl+C in each terminal)
+
+# Remove test data
+rm -rf /tmp/full-node /tmp/partial-node
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Nodes not connecting
+- Verify bootnodes enode URL is correct
+- Check that network IDs match (dev mode uses 1337)
+- Ensure ports are not blocked
+
+### State root mismatch
+- This indicates a bug in BAL processing
+- Check geth logs for errors during block processing
+- Verify the partial node received the BAL with the block
+
+### Storage queries failing
+- Verify the contract address is in the tracked contracts list
+- Check that the contract was deployed after the partial node started syncing

+# Partial Statefulness Design - Final Plan
+
+## Overview
+
+**Goal**: Enable Ethereum nodes to operate with reduced storage by keeping:
+- Full account trie (all accounts + intermediate nodes)
+- Selective storage (only configured contracts' storage)
+- BAL-based state updates (per EIP-7928)
+
+**Source**: [ethresear.ch - Partial Statefulness](https://ethresear.ch/t/the-future-of-state-part-2-beyond-the-myth-of-partial-statefulness-the-reality-of-zkevms/23396)
+
+---
+
+## Design Decisions (Confirmed)
+
+### Core Model
+| Decision | Choice | Notes |
+|----------|--------|-------|
+| Account trie | ALL accounts + ALL intermediate nodes | Full trie structure with compression |
+| Storage | Only configured contracts | User specifies which contracts in config file |
+| BAL source | Per EIP-7928 | BALs come with blocks, hash committed in header |
+| Validation | Trust BAL, apply diffs | Same trust model as light clients (signing committee) |
+| Block history | 256-1024 blocks | Support BLOCKHASH opcode, configurable BAL retention |
+
+### Storage Approach
+| Component | Size | Notes |
+|-----------|------|-------|
+| Account leaves | ~14 GB | 300M accounts × ~45 bytes (slim RLP) |
+| Intermediate nodes | ~15-25 GB | With delta encoding + bitmap compression |
+| **Total account trie** | **~30-40 GB** | |
+| Configured storage | Variable | Depends on tracked contracts |
+| BAL history | ~1-2 GB | 256-1024 blocks |
+
+### Operations
+| Operation | Approach |
+|-----------|----------|
+| Initial sync | Account trie first (snap sync), then configured storage |
+| Block processing | Apply BAL diffs → update trie → verify state root matches header |
+| Reorgs | Revert using stored BAL history; deeper reorgs request from full peers |
+| eth_getProof (accounts) | Supported for ALL accounts |
+| eth_getProof (storage) | Only for configured contracts; error otherwise |
+| Mempool validation | Fully supported (only needs account data) |
+| Serving peers | Account proofs + tracked contract storage |
+
+---
+
+## EIP-7928 BAL Integration
+
+### BAL Format (from EIP-7928)
+```
+BlockAccessList = [AccountAccess, ...]
+
+AccountAccess = [
+ Address,
+ StorageWrites, // map[slot] -> map[txIdx] -> value
+ StorageReads, // list of read slots
+ BalanceChanges, // map[txIdx] -> balance
+ NonceChanges, // map[txIdx] -> nonce
+ CodeChanges // map[txIdx] -> bytecode
+]
+```
+
+### Key EIP-7928 Facts
+- **Header commitment**: `block_access_list_hash = keccak256(rlp.encode(bal))`
+- **Propagation**: Via Engine API (ExecutionPayloadV4), not in block body
+- **Retention**: Full nodes must keep WSP (~5 months); partial nodes: configurable (256-1024 blocks)
+- **Validation**: Deterministic - wrong BAL = wrong header hash = invalid block
+
+### BAL Processing Flow
+```
+1. Receive block + BAL via Engine API
+2. Verify: keccak256(rlp.encode(bal)) == header.block_access_list_hash
+3. For each AccountAccess in BAL:
+ a. Load current account from trie
+ b. Apply balance/nonce changes (final values per block)
+ c. Apply storage root update (from BAL storage writes for tracked contracts)
+ d. Update account in trie
+4. Commit trie changes
+5. Verify: trie.Root() == header.stateRoot
+6. If mismatch: reject block (consensus failure elsewhere)
+```
+
+---
+
+## State Root Verification
+
+### How It Works Without Re-execution
+
+Partial nodes can verify state root because:
+
+1. **Full account trie stored**: All intermediate nodes available
+2. **BAL provides final values**: Post-block account state (not deltas)
+3. **Trie update is deterministic**: Same inputs → same output
+4. **Cross-check with header**: header.stateRoot must match computed root
+
+### Trust Model
+
+Same as beacon chain light clients:
+- Trust signing committee (attestations)
+- Verify header commitments (state root, BAL hash)
+- Detect inconsistencies via hash mismatches
+
+If BAL is incorrect:
+- State root won't match → block rejected
+- Fork choice rejects the block
+- Partial node follows canonical chain
+
+---
+
+## Snap Sync Adaptation
+
+### Current Snap Sync (Full Node)
+```
+Phase 1: Sync account ranges (GetAccountRangeMsg)
+Phase 2: Sync all storage for all contracts
+Phase 3: Sync all bytecode
+Phase 4: Healing (fill gaps)
+```
+
+### Partial Statefulness Snap Sync
+```
+Phase 1: Sync COMPLETE account trie (same as full node)
+ - All accounts
+ - All intermediate nodes
+ - ~30-40 GB
+
+Phase 2: Sync storage ONLY for configured contracts
+ - Filter: Only request storage for contracts in config
+ - Skip: All other contracts' storage
+
+Phase 3: Sync bytecode ONLY for configured contracts
+ - Same filtering as storage
+
+Phase 4: Healing (account trie only)
+ - No healing needed for skipped storage
+```
+
+### Implementation Changes Needed
+1. Add `PartialStateConfig` to ethconfig
+2. Modify `storageRequest` creation in snap syncer to check config
+3. Skip storage/bytecode tasks for non-configured contracts
+4. Track sync progress separately for account trie vs. storage
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Config Structure
+```go
+type PartialStateConfig struct {
+ Enabled bool
+ Contracts []common.Address // Tracked contracts
+ ContractsFile string // Or load from JSON file
+ BALRetention uint64 // Blocks to keep (default: 256)
+}
+```
+
+### Example Config (TOML)
+```toml
+[Eth.PartialState]
+Enabled = true
+BALRetention = 256
+Contracts = [
+ "0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2", # WETH
+ "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48", # USDC
+]
+```
+
+---
+
+## RPC Behavior
+
+| Method | Behavior |
+|--------|----------|
+| `eth_getBalance` | ✅ Works (have account data) |
+| `eth_getTransactionCount` | ✅ Works (have nonce) |
+| `eth_getCode` | ✅ For tracked contracts; ❌ error for others |
+| `eth_getStorageAt` | ✅ For tracked contracts; ❌ error for others |
+| `eth_getProof` (account) | ✅ Works for ANY account |
+| `eth_getProof` (storage) | ✅ For tracked contracts; ❌ error for others |
+| `eth_call` | ✅ If touches only tracked contracts; ❌ if touches untracked |
+| `eth_estimateGas` | Same as eth_call |
+| `eth_sendRawTransaction` | ✅ Mempool validation works (only needs account data) |
+
+---
+
+## Binary Trie (EIP-7864) Compatibility
+
+### Will This Design Work With Binary Trie?
+
+**Yes**, with minimal changes:
+
+| Aspect | MPT | Binary Trie | Compatibility |
+|--------|-----|-------------|---------------|
+| Account data | StateAccount struct | Same struct | ✅ Compatible |
+| Trie interface | `Trie` interface | Same interface | ✅ Compatible |
+| BAL format | Per EIP-7928 | Same format | ✅ Compatible |
+| Selective storage | Skip storage tries | Skip stem suffixes | ✅ Compatible |
+| Proof generation | Merkle proofs | Path proofs | ✅ Use interface |
+
+### Adaptation Needed
+Only the storage size estimates change:
+- Binary Trie total: ~48 GB (vs. MPT ~30-40 GB with compression)
+- Binary Trie has simpler structure, no compression needed
+
+**Recommendation**: Use go-ethereum's `Trie` interface which abstracts over both.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Phases
+
+### Phase 1: Configuration & Infrastructure
+- Add `PartialStateConfig` to `eth/ethconfig/config.go`
+- Create `core/state/partial/` package with `ContractFilter` interface
+- Add CLI flags for partial state mode
+
+### Phase 2: Snap Sync Modifications
+- Modify `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go` for selective storage sync
+- Add filter checks in `processAccountResponse` and `processStorageResponse`
+- Track separate progress for account trie vs. storage
+
+### Phase 3: BAL Processing
+- Implement BAL diff application in block import pipeline
+- Modify `core/blockchain.go` to use BAL for state updates
+- Add state root verification without re-execution
+
+### Phase 4: RPC & Operations
+- Modify `internal/ethapi/api.go` for partial state awareness
+- Add appropriate errors for untracked contract queries
+- Implement BAL history management and reorg handling
+
+---
+
+## Key Files to Modify
+
+| File | Changes |
+|------|---------|
+| `eth/ethconfig/config.go` | Add `PartialStateConfig` |
+| `core/state/partial/filter.go` | New: `ContractFilter` interface |
+| `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go` | Filter storage sync by config |
+| `core/blockchain.go` | BAL-based state updates |
+| `internal/ethapi/api.go` | Partial state RPC handling |
+| `cmd/utils/flags.go` | CLI flags for partial state |
+
+---
+
+## Open Items for Implementation
+
+1. **BLOCKHASH opcode**: Verify 256 blocks of history is sufficient; check if other opcodes need block history
+
+2. **Storage root verification**: When applying BAL storage diffs for tracked contracts, verify computed storage root matches account's storageRoot field
+
+3. **Compression implementation**: Implement delta encoding + bitmap optimization for intermediate nodes (existing pathdb patterns can be adapted)
+
+4. **Selective snap sync protocol**: Research if snap protocol needs extension or if filtering can be done client-side
+
+---
+
+## Verification Checklist
+
+After implementation, verify:
+- [ ] Can sync account trie completely via snap sync
+- [ ] Can sync only configured contracts' storage
+- [ ] BAL diffs apply correctly, state root matches header
+- [ ] eth_getProof works for any account (proof generation)
+- [ ] eth_getProof returns error for untracked storage
+- [ ] Mempool accepts/validates transactions correctly
+- [ ] Reorgs up to BAL retention depth work
+- [ ] Deeper reorgs trigger recovery from full peers
+- [ ] Total storage matches estimates (~30-40 GB + configured storage)
+

+
+---
+
+## SPEC 1: Snap Sync Refactoring for Selective Storage
+
+### Overview
+
+The snap sync protocol in go-ethereum downloads account data and contract storage in parallel. For partial statefulness, we need to:
+1. Download ALL accounts (unchanged behavior)
+2. Download storage ONLY for configured contracts (new filtering)
+3. Download bytecode ONLY for configured contracts (new filtering)
+
+**Design Principle**: Keep original `Syncer` implementation untouched. Create a separate syncer implementation using a strategy/interface pattern that allows selection at runtime.
+
+### Architecture: Strategy Pattern
+
+```
+ ┌─────────────────────┐
+ │ SyncStrategy │ (interface)
+ │ interface │
+ └─────────┬───────────┘
+ │
+ ┌───────────────┼───────────────┐
+ │ │ │
+ ┌─────────▼─────┐ ┌──────▼──────┐ ┌─────▼───────┐
+ │ FullSyncer │ │PartialSyncer│ │ (future) │
+ │ (wraps orig) │ │(new impl) │ │ │
+ └───────────────┘ └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘
+```
+
+### Key Files
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go` | **UNCHANGED** - Original Syncer |
+| `eth/protocols/snap/strategy.go` | **NEW** - SyncStrategy interface |
+| `eth/protocols/snap/partial_sync.go` | **NEW** - PartialSyncer implementation |
+| `core/state/partial/filter.go` | **NEW** - ContractFilter interface |
+| `eth/downloader/downloader.go` | **MODIFIED** - Strategy selection |
+
+---
+
+## SPEC 2: Compression + Root Recomputation
+
+### Overview
+
+For partial statefulness, we store the full account trie (~300M accounts + intermediate nodes) but need efficient storage. This spec covers:
+1. **REUSE** existing delta encoding infrastructure from pathdb
+2. State root recomputation from BAL diffs
+
+### Existing Compression Infrastructure (REUSE - DO NOT REIMPLEMENT)
+
+**Location**: `triedb/pathdb/nodes.go` (lines 431-691)
+
+go-ethereum **already has production-grade compression** we must reuse:
+
+| Function | Purpose | Status |
+|----------|---------|--------|
+| `encodeNodeCompressed()` | Delta encoding with bitmap | **REUSE** |
+| `decodeNodeCompressed()` | Decode compressed format | **REUSE** |
+| `encodeNodeFull()` | Full-value encoding | **REUSE** |
+| `encodeNodeHistory()` | Checkpoint + delta chains | **REUSE** |
+
+---
+
+## SPEC 3: BAL Processing Pipeline
+
+### Overview
+
+Block Access Lists (BALs) per EIP-7928 provide state diffs that allow partial nodes to update state without re-executing transactions.
+
+### Existing BAL Implementation (Already in Geth)
+
+**Location**: `core/types/bal/`
+
+BAL types are already implemented in go-ethereum master:
+
+| File | Contents |
+|------|----------|
+| `bal.go` | `ConstructionBlockAccessList`, `ConstructionAccountAccess`, builder methods |
+| `bal_encoding.go` | `BlockAccessList`, `AccountAccess`, RLP encoding, hash computation |
+| `bal_encoding_rlp_generated.go` | Generated RLP encoder/decoder |
+
+---
+
+## SPEC 4: RPC Modifications
+
+### Overview
+
+Partial state nodes can answer some RPC queries but not others. This spec defines the behavior.
+
+### Error Codes
+
+```go
+var (
+ ErrStorageNotTracked = errors.New("storage not tracked for this contract")
+ ErrCodeNotTracked = errors.New("code not tracked for this contract")
+)
+
+const (
+ ErrCodeStorageNotTracked = -32001
+ ErrCodeNotTracked = -32002
+)
+```
+
+---
+
+## SPEC 5: Configuration System
+
+### CLI Flags
+
+```go
+var (
+ PartialStateFlag = &cli.BoolFlag{
+ Name: "partial-state",
+ Usage: "Enable partial statefulness mode (reduced storage)",
+ Category: flags.EthCategory,
+ }
+
+ PartialStateContractsFlag = &cli.StringSliceFlag{
+ Name: "partial-state.contracts",
+ Usage: "Contracts to track storage for (comma-separated addresses)",
+ Category: flags.EthCategory,
+ }
+
+ PartialStateContractsFileFlag = &cli.StringFlag{
+ Name: "partial-state.contracts-file",
+ Usage: "JSON file containing contracts to track",
+ Category: flags.EthCategory,
+ }
+
+ PartialStateBALRetentionFlag = &cli.Uint64Flag{
+ Name: "partial-state.bal-retention",
+ Usage: "Number of blocks to retain BAL history (default: 256)",
+ Value: 256,
+ Category: flags.EthCategory,

+- **S** = Small (few hours)
+- **M** = Medium (1-2 days)
+- **L** = Large (3-5 days)
+
+---
+
+## Critical Path
+
+The critical path for minimum viable partial statefulness:
+
+1. **Phase 1**: Configuration infrastructure
+2. **Phase 2**: Selective snap sync via strategy pattern (accounts + filtered storage)
+3. **Phase 3**: BAL processing (state updates without re-execution, using existing BAL types)
+4. **Phase 4**: RPC modifications (proper error handling)
+5. **Phase 5**: End-to-end test
+
+This enables a working partial stateful node. Compression and full reorg handling can be added incrementally.
+
+## Key Design Decisions Summary
+
+| Decision | Approach | Rationale |

+# Phase 2: Snap Sync Modifications for Partial Statefulness
+
+## Pre-Execution Tasks
+
+Before implementing Phase 2, complete these preparatory tasks:
+
+### Task 0.1: Commit Phase 1 Changes
+Commit all existing Phase 1 work (configuration, filters, BAL infrastructure):
+```bash
+git add cmd/geth/chaincmd.go cmd/geth/main.go cmd/utils/flags.go \
+ core/rawdb/schema.go core/rawdb/accessors_bal.go \
+ eth/ethconfig/config.go eth/ethconfig/gen_config.go \
+ core/state/partial/
+git commit -m "eth: add partial statefulness foundation (Phase 1)
+
+Implements EIP-7928 BAL-based partial statefulness infrastructure:
+
+- Add PartialStateConfig to eth/ethconfig with CLI flags
+- Add ContractFilter interface in core/state/partial/
+- Add BAL history database accessors in core/rawdb/
+- Add PartialState and BALHistory managers
+
+This enables nodes to track only configured contracts' storage
+while maintaining full account trie integrity."
+```
+
+### Task 0.2: Save Plan Documentation
+Create a reference document in the repo (not to be committed):
+```bash
+mkdir -p docs/partial-state
+# Copy plan content to docs/partial-state/PHASE2_PLAN.md
+```
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+This plan modifies go-ethereum's snap sync to support **partial statefulness**: downloading ALL accounts but only storage/bytecode for **configured contracts**. This enables nodes to operate with ~30-40GB instead of ~1TB+ while maintaining full account trie integrity.
+
+---
+
+## Snap Sync Protocol Overview
+
+Based on comprehensive analysis of 10 different aspects of the snap sync implementation:
+
+### Current Architecture
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Syncer.Sync() │
+│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
+│ │ PHASE 1: Snap Download │ │
+│ │ 1. assignAccountTasks() → Download account ranges │ │
+│ │ 2. processAccountResponse() → Analyze each account: │ │
+│ │ • CodeHash != Empty → Add to codeTasks │ │
+│ │ • Root != Empty → Add to stateTasks │ │
+│ │ 3. assignBytecodeTasks() → Download bytecodes │ │
+│ │ 4. assignStorageTasks() → Download storage slots │ │
+│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
+│ ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │
+│ │ PHASE 2: Healing │ │
+│ │ • Fill gaps in trie structure │ │
+│ │ • Download missing intermediate nodes │ │
+│ └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+### Key Decision Points for Filtering
+
+| Location | Function | Decision |
+| ------------------- | -------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `sync.go:1908-1928` | `processAccountResponse()` | Checks `CodeHash != EmptyCodeHash` → adds to `codeTasks` |
+| `sync.go:1930-1969` | `processAccountResponse()` | Checks `Root != EmptyRootHash` → adds to `stateTasks` |
+| `sync.go:1117-1215` | `assignBytecodeTasks()` | Iterates `codeTasks` map |
+| `sync.go:1220-1373` | `assignStorageTasks()` | Iterates `stateTasks` map |
+
+### Key Data Structures
+
+```go
+type accountTask struct {
+ needCode []bool // Which accounts need bytecode
+ needState []bool // Which accounts need storage
+ needHeal []bool // Which accounts need healing
+ codeTasks map[common.Hash]struct{} // Pending bytecode hashes
+ stateTasks map[common.Hash]common.Hash // Account hash → storage root
+ stateCompleted map[common.Hash]struct{} // Completed storage syncs
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Design: Minimal-Invasion Approach
+
+Instead of creating a separate `PartialSyncer`, we'll add **filter checks at decision points** within the existing Syncer. This is less invasive and easier to maintain.
+
+### Changes Overview
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ eth/protocols/snap/sync.go │
+│ • Add filter field to Syncer struct │
+│ • Modify processAccountResponse() to check filter │
+│ • Add skip markers for intentionally skipped storage │
+│ • Modify healing to skip intentionally-skipped accounts │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ eth/protocols/snap/sync_partial.go (NEW) │
+│ • PartialSyncConfig struct │
+│ • Skip marker database functions │
+│ • Helper functions for filter integration │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ eth/downloader/downloader.go │
+│ • Pass PartialStateConfig to snap.Syncer │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```

+
+## Detailed Implementation Plan
+
+### Task 2.1: Add Filter to Syncer Struct
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go`
+
+Add filter field to Syncer:
+```go
+type Syncer struct {
+ // ... existing fields ...
+
+ // Partial state filter (nil = sync everything)
+ filter partial.ContractFilter
+}
+```
+
+Modify `NewSyncer()`:
+```go
+func NewSyncer(db ethdb.KeyValueStore, scheme string, filter partial.ContractFilter) *Syncer {
+ return &Syncer{
+ db: db,
+ scheme: scheme,
+ filter: filter, // May be nil for full sync
+ // ... rest unchanged
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~10 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.2: Create sync_partial.go Helper File
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync_partial.go` (NEW)
+
+```go
+package snap
+
+import (
+ "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/common"
+ "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/core/rawdb"
+ "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/core/state/partial"
+ "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/ethdb"
+)
+
+// Database key prefix for tracking intentionally skipped storage
+var skippedStoragePrefix = []byte("SnapSkipped")
+
+// skippedStorageKey returns the database key for a skipped storage marker
+func skippedStorageKey(accountHash common.Hash) []byte {
+ return append(skippedStoragePrefix, accountHash.Bytes()...)
+}
+
+// markStorageSkipped records that storage was intentionally skipped for an account
+func markStorageSkipped(db ethdb.KeyValueWriter, accountHash common.Hash, storageRoot common.Hash) {
+ db.Put(skippedStorageKey(accountHash), storageRoot.Bytes())
+}
+
+// isStorageSkipped checks if storage was intentionally skipped for an account
+func isStorageSkipped(db ethdb.KeyValueReader, accountHash common.Hash) bool {
+ has, _ := db.Has(skippedStorageKey(accountHash))
+ return has
+}
+
+// deleteStorageSkipped removes the skip marker (used during cleanup)
+func deleteStorageSkipped(db ethdb.KeyValueWriter, accountHash common.Hash) {
+ db.Delete(skippedStorageKey(accountHash))
+}
+
+// shouldSyncStorage returns true if storage should be synced for this address
+func (s *Syncer) shouldSyncStorage(addr common.Address) bool {
+ if s.filter == nil {
+ return true // No filter = sync everything
+ }
+ return s.filter.ShouldSyncStorage(addr)
+}
+
+// shouldSyncCode returns true if bytecode should be synced for this address
+func (s *Syncer) shouldSyncCode(addr common.Address) bool {
+ if s.filter == nil {
+ return true // No filter = sync everything
+ }
+ return s.filter.ShouldSyncCode(addr)
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~50 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.3: Modify processAccountResponse() for Filtering
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go`
+
+**Current code (lines 1908-1969):**
+```go
+// Check if the account is a contract with an unknown code
+if !bytes.Equal(account.CodeHash, types.EmptyCodeHash.Bytes()) {
+ if !rawdb.HasCodeWithPrefix(s.db, common.BytesToHash(account.CodeHash)) {
+ res.task.codeTasks[common.BytesToHash(account.CodeHash)] = struct{}{}
+ res.task.needCode[i] = true
+ res.task.pend++
+ }
+}
+// Check if the account is a contract with an unknown storage trie
+if account.Root != types.EmptyRootHash {
+ // ... adds to stateTasks
+}
+```
+
+**Modified code:**
+```go
+// Derive address from account hash for filter check
+// Note: We have the hash, need to track address mapping
+addr := s.hashToAddress(res.hashes[i]) // New helper needed
+
+// Check if the account is a contract with an unknown code
+if !bytes.Equal(account.CodeHash, types.EmptyCodeHash.Bytes()) {
+ if !rawdb.HasCodeWithPrefix(s.db, common.BytesToHash(account.CodeHash)) {
+ // NEW: Check filter before adding to codeTasks
+ if s.shouldSyncCode(addr) {
+ res.task.codeTasks[common.BytesToHash(account.CodeHash)] = struct{}{}
+ res.task.needCode[i] = true
+ res.task.pend++
+ }
+ // If filtered out, bytecode just won't be fetched
+ }
+}
+
+// Check if the account is a contract with an unknown storage trie
+if account.Root != types.EmptyRootHash {
+ // NEW: Check filter before adding to stateTasks
+ if s.shouldSyncStorage(addr) {
+ // ... existing logic to add to stateTasks
+ } else {
+ // Mark as intentionally skipped for healing phase
+ markStorageSkipped(s.db, res.hashes[i], account.Root)
+ res.task.stateCompleted[res.hashes[i]] = struct{}{}
+ // Don't increment pend - we're not waiting for this storage
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Challenge:** We have account hashes but need addresses for filter checks.
+
+**Solution:** The filter operates on addresses, but snap sync uses hashes. Two options:
+1. Store hash→address mapping during sync (memory overhead)
+2. Modify filter to work with hashes (requires pre-computing hashes of configured addresses)
+
+**Recommended: Option 2** - Pre-compute hashes in filter:
+```go
+type ConfiguredFilter struct {
+ contracts map[common.Address]struct{}
+ contractHashes map[common.Hash]struct{} // Pre-computed: keccak256(address)
+}
+
+func (f *ConfiguredFilter) ShouldSyncStorageByHash(hash common.Hash) bool {
+ _, ok := f.contractHashes[hash]
+ return ok
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~40 lines in sync.go, ~20 lines in filter.go
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.4: Modify Healing to Skip Storage for Non-Tracked Contracts
+
+**Important Clarification:** We **NEVER skip accounts** - ALL accounts are always synced (this is the core value proposition). We only skip **storage and bytecode** for contracts not in the configured filter.
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go`
+
+In `onHealState()` callback (lines 3071-3092), add check for **storage leaves only**:
+```go
+func (s *Syncer) onHealState(paths [][]byte, value []byte) error {
+ if len(paths) == 1 {
+ // Account trie leaf - ALWAYS process (never skip accounts)
+ var account types.StateAccount
+ if err := rlp.DecodeBytes(value, &account); err != nil {
+ return nil
+ }
+ blob := types.SlimAccountRLP(account)
+ rawdb.WriteAccountSnapshot(s.stateWriter, common.BytesToHash(paths[0]), blob)
+ s.accountHealed += 1
+ // ... rest unchanged
+ }
+ if len(paths) == 2 {
+ // Storage trie leaf
+ accountHash := common.BytesToHash(paths[0])
+
+ // NEW: Skip STORAGE healing for non-tracked contracts
+ // (accounts themselves are always synced/healed)
+ if isStorageSkipped(s.db, accountHash) {
+ return nil // Don't heal storage we intentionally skipped
+ }
+
+ // ... existing storage handling
+ rawdb.WriteStorageSnapshot(s.stateWriter, accountHash, ...)
+ }
+ return nil
+}
+```
+
+Also modify healing task creation to avoid requesting storage trie nodes for non-tracked contracts.
+
+**Key principle:** Account healing always proceeds. Only storage trie node requests are filtered.
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~30 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.5: Update Downloader to Pass Filter
+
+**File:** `eth/downloader/downloader.go`
+
+Modify `New()` to accept and pass filter:
+```go
+func New(stateDb ethdb.Database, mode ethconfig.SyncMode, ...,
+ partialConfig *ethconfig.PartialStateConfig) *Downloader {
+
+ var filter partial.ContractFilter
+ if partialConfig != nil && partialConfig.Enabled {
+ filter = partial.NewConfiguredFilter(partialConfig.Contracts)
+ }
+
+ dl := &Downloader{
+ // ... existing fields
+ SnapSyncer: snap.NewSyncer(stateDb, chain.TrieDB().Scheme(), filter),
+ }
+ // ...
+}
+```
+
+**File:** `eth/handler.go`
+
+Pass config through handler:
+```go
+h.downloader = downloader.New(config.Database, config.Sync, h.eventMux,
+ h.chain, h.removePeer, h.enableSyncedFeatures,
+ &config.Eth.PartialState)
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~20 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.6: Add Hash-Based Filter Methods
+
+**File:** `core/state/partial/filter.go`
+
+Extend ConfiguredFilter:
+```go
+type ConfiguredFilter struct {
+ contracts map[common.Address]struct{}
+ contractHashes map[common.Hash]struct{} // NEW: Pre-computed hashes
+}
+
+func NewConfiguredFilter(addresses []common.Address) *ConfiguredFilter {
+ m := make(map[common.Address]struct{}, len(addresses))
+ h := make(map[common.Hash]struct{}, len(addresses))
+ for _, addr := range addresses {
+ m[addr] = struct{}{}
+ h[crypto.Keccak256Hash(addr.Bytes())] = struct{}{} // Pre-compute hash
+ }
+ return &ConfiguredFilter{contracts: m, contractHashes: h}
+}
+
+// NEW: Hash-based filter for snap sync (which works with hashes, not addresses)
+func (f *ConfiguredFilter) ShouldSyncStorageByHash(hash common.Hash) bool {
+ _, ok := f.contractHashes[hash]
+ return ok
+}
+
+func (f *ConfiguredFilter) ShouldSyncCodeByHash(hash common.Hash) bool {
+ _, ok := f.contractHashes[hash]
+ return ok
+}
+```
+
+Update ContractFilter interface:
+```go
+type ContractFilter interface {
+ ShouldSyncStorage(address common.Address) bool
+ ShouldSyncCode(address common.Address) bool
+ IsTracked(address common.Address) bool
+
+ // Hash-based methods for snap sync
+ ShouldSyncStorageByHash(hash common.Hash) bool
+ ShouldSyncCodeByHash(hash common.Hash) bool
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~30 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.7: Persist Skip Markers for Resumption
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go`
+
+In `saveSyncStatus()`, ensure skip markers are preserved (they're already in DB, just verify):
+```go
+func (s *Syncer) saveSyncStatus() {
+ // ... existing serialization
+
+ // Skip markers are already in DB (written during processAccountResponse)
+ // They persist across restarts automatically
+}
+```
+
+In `loadSyncStatus()`, log skipped storage count for visibility:
+```go
+func (s *Syncer) loadSyncStatus() {
+ // ... existing deserialization
+
+ if s.filter != nil {
+ log.Info("Partial state sync active",
+ "trackedContracts", len(s.filter.Contracts()))
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~10 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.8: Add Metrics for Partial Sync
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync.go`
+
+Add counters:
+```go
+var (
+ storageSkippedGauge = metrics.NewRegisteredGauge("snap/sync/storage/skipped", nil)
+ bytecodeSkippedGauge = metrics.NewRegisteredGauge("snap/sync/bytecode/skipped", nil)
+)
+```
+
+Increment in processAccountResponse:
+```go
+if !s.shouldSyncStorage(addr) {
+ storageSkippedGauge.Inc(1)
+ // ...
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~15 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.9: Unit Tests
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync_partial_test.go` (NEW)
+
+```go
+package snap
+
+import (
+ "testing"
+ "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/common"
+ "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/core/state/partial"
+)
+
+func TestPartialSyncFilterStorage(t *testing.T) {
+ // Create filter with specific contracts
+ tracked := []common.Address{
+ common.HexToAddress("0x1234..."),
+ }
+ filter := partial.NewConfiguredFilter(tracked)
+
+ // Verify tracked contracts pass filter
+ if !filter.ShouldSyncStorage(tracked[0]) {
+ t.Error("Tracked contract should pass filter")
+ }
+
+ // Verify untracked contracts are filtered
+ untracked := common.HexToAddress("0xABCD...")
+ if filter.ShouldSyncStorage(untracked) {
+ t.Error("Untracked contract should be filtered")
+ }
+
+ // Verify hash-based filter works
+ trackedHash := crypto.Keccak256Hash(tracked[0].Bytes())
+ if !filter.ShouldSyncStorageByHash(trackedHash) {
+ t.Error("Tracked contract hash should pass filter")
+ }
+}
+
+func TestSkipMarkerPersistence(t *testing.T) {
+ db := rawdb.NewMemoryDatabase()
+ accountHash := common.HexToHash("0x1234...")
+ storageRoot := common.HexToHash("0xABCD...")
+
+ // Mark as skipped
+ markStorageSkipped(db, accountHash, storageRoot)
+
+ // Verify marker persists
+ if !isStorageSkipped(db, accountHash) {
+ t.Error("Skip marker should persist")
+ }
+
+ // Delete and verify
+ deleteStorageSkipped(db, accountHash)
+ if isStorageSkipped(db, accountHash) {
+ t.Error("Skip marker should be deleted")
+ }
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~100 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 2.10: Integration Test
+
+**File:** `eth/protocols/snap/sync_partial_integration_test.go` (NEW)
+
+Create end-to-end test that:
+1. Sets up a mock state with multiple contracts
+2. Configures partial sync with subset of contracts
+3. Runs sync
+4. Verifies:
+ - All accounts synced
+ - Only configured contracts have storage
+ - Skip markers present for non-configured contracts
+ - Healing doesn't try to heal skipped storage
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~200 lines
+
+---
+
+## Local Testing Strategy
+
+### 1. Unit Test Execution
+```bash
+cd eth/protocols/snap
+go test -v -run TestPartialSync
+go test -v -run TestSkipMarker
+```
+
+### 2. Build Verification
+```bash
+go build ./...
+go build ./cmd/geth
+```
+
+### 3. Simulated Network Test
+
+Create a test script that:
+```bash
+# Terminal 1: Start full node (serves as peer)
+./geth --datadir /tmp/full-node --syncmode snap --port 30303
+
+# Terminal 2: Start partial node
+./geth --datadir /tmp/partial-node --syncmode snap --port 30304 \
+ --partial-state \
+ --partial-state.contracts 0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2 \
+ --bootnodes "enode://..."
+```
+
+### 4. Verification Checks
+
+After sync completes:
+```bash
+# Check database size (should be significantly smaller)
+du -sh /tmp/partial-node/geth/chaindata
+
+# Query RPC to verify:
+# - Account balance works for any address
+curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+ --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getBalance","params":["0x...", "latest"],"id":1}' \
+ http://localhost:8545
+
+# - Storage works for tracked contracts
+curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+ --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getStorageAt","params":["0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2", "0x0", "latest"],"id":1}' \
+ http://localhost:8545
+
+# - Storage fails for untracked contracts (once RPC phase implemented)
+```
+
+### 5. Devnet Testing
+
+For full integration testing:
+1. Use a local devnet with known state
+2. Configure partial sync with specific test contracts
+3. Verify sync completion and state correctness
+4. Test reorg handling with BAL history

+
+## Critical Design Decisions
+
+1. **Minimal Invasion**: Modify existing Syncer rather than creating parallel implementation
+2. **Hash-Based Filtering**: Pre-compute address hashes for efficient snap sync filtering
+3. **Skip Markers in DB**: Persist skip decisions for healing phase and resumption
+4. **Healing Awareness**: Healing phase must respect skip markers to avoid errors
+
+---
+
+## Verification Checklist
+
+After implementation:
+- [ ] **ALL accounts synced** (complete account trie - this is critical)
+- [ ] **Account trie fully intact** - eth_getProof works for ANY account
+- [ ] Only configured contracts have storage synced
+- [ ] Only configured contracts have bytecode synced
+- [ ] Skip markers present for non-tracked contract storage
+- [ ] Healing completes successfully (doesn't try to heal skipped storage)
+- [ ] Sync can resume after restart (skip markers persist)
+- [ ] Database size significantly reduced (~30-40GB vs ~1TB+)
+- [ ] eth_getBalance works for ANY account (not just tracked)
+- [ ] eth_getTransactionCount works for ANY account
+- [ ] eth_getStorageAt works for tracked contracts
+- [ ] Metrics show skipped storage/bytecode counts
+
+**Critical Invariant:** The account trie must be 100% complete. Only storage tries for non-tracked contracts are skipped.
+
+
+# After implemenmtation:
+★ Insight ─────────────────────────────────────
+ Phase 2 Implementation Complete:
+ The key architectural change is that snap sync now supports partial statefulness through a filter mechanism. The filter is passed through
+ the entire stack:
+ 1. ethconfig.PartialStateConfig → CLI configuration
+ 2. partial.ConfiguredFilter → Pre-computes keccak256 hashes for efficient lookup
+ 3. snap.Syncer.filter → Makes filtering decisions during sync
+ 4. markStorageSkipped() / isStorageSkipped() → Persists skip decisions for healing phase
+
+ This allows a node to sync ~30-40GB (all accounts) instead of ~1TB+ (all accounts + all storage).

+# Phase 3: BAL Processing & State Updates for Partial Statefulness
+
+## Overview
+
+**Goal**: Enable partial state nodes to process blocks using Block Access Lists (BALs) instead of re-executing transactions. This allows state updates without needing full contract storage.
+
+**Key principle**: BALs (per EIP-7928) provide state diffs that allow computing the new state root by applying changes directly to the trie, without transaction execution.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Phase 1 (Configuration & Infrastructure): ✓ Complete
+- Phase 2 (Snap Sync Modifications): ✓ Complete
+- EIP-7928 BAL types already exist in `core/types/bal/`
+
+---
+
+## Design Overview
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Block Processing Flow │
+│ │
+│ Full Node: Block → Execute TXs → Compute State Root │
+│ │
+│ Partial Node: Block + BAL → Apply BAL Diffs → Verify Root │
+│ │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ BAL Application Flow │
+│ │
+│ 1. Receive block + BAL (via Engine API) │
+│ 2. Verify: keccak256(rlp(BAL)) == header.BlockAccessListHash │
+│ 3. For each AccountAccess in BAL: │
+│ a. Load account from trie │
+│ b. Apply balance/nonce changes (final values) │
+│ c. Apply storage changes (tracked contracts only) │
+│ d. Update account in trie │
+│ 4. Commit trie → Verify root matches header.stateRoot │
+│ 5. Store BAL for reorg handling │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```

+
+## Existing Infrastructure (ALREADY EXISTS - REUSE!)
+
+Based on agent exploration, the following infrastructure **already exists and is production-ready**:
+
+| Component | Location | Status |
+|-----------|----------|--------|
+| BAL Types | `core/types/bal/bal.go` | ✅ Complete - `ConstructionBlockAccessList`, `BlockAccessList` |
+| BAL Encoding | `core/types/bal/bal_encoding.go` | ✅ Complete - RLP, Hash(), Validate() |
+| DB Schema | `core/rawdb/schema.go:172` | ✅ Complete - prefix `"p"` |
+| DB Accessors | `core/rawdb/accessors_bal.go` | ✅ Complete - Read/Write/Delete/Prune |
+| BALHistory | `core/state/partial/history.go` | ✅ Complete - wrapper over rawdb |
+| PartialState | `core/state/partial/state.go` | ⚠️ Skeleton - needs `ApplyBALAndComputeRoot()` |
+| ContractFilter | `core/state/partial/filter.go` | ✅ Complete - ConfiguredFilter, AllowAllFilter |
+| Trie Interface | `trie/trie.go` | ✅ Standard trie operations |
+
+**What this means:** Tasks 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 are already done! We only need to implement:
+- `ApplyBALAndComputeRoot()` in PartialState
+- `ProcessBlockWithBAL()` in BlockChain
+- Reorg handling
+- Tests
+
+---
+
+## Detailed Implementation Plan
+
+### Task 3.1: Review/Extend Existing PartialState Struct
+
+**File:** `core/state/partial/state.go` (ALREADY EXISTS!)
+
+**Agent Finding:** PartialState skeleton already exists with correct structure:
+```go
+type PartialState struct {
+ db ethdb.Database
+ trieDB *triedb.Database
+ filter ContractFilter
+ history *BALHistory // Already includes history!
+ stateRoot common.Hash
+}
+```
+
+**Current methods (already implemented):**
+- `NewPartialState()` - Constructor ✅
+- `Filter()` - Filter access ✅
+- `Root()` / `SetRoot()` - Root management ✅
+- `History()` - BAL history access ✅
+
+**Key patterns from StateDB (confirmed by agent):**
+- PartialState does NOT need `stateObjects` caching (applies BAL directly to trie)
+- PartialState does NOT need journal/revert (BAL diffs are immutable)
+- PartialState does NOT need prefetcher (not executing contracts)
+- Error handling: return errors immediately (no memoization)
+
+**What needs to be added:**
+- `ApplyBALAndComputeRoot()` method (Task 3.5)
+- Optional metrics fields for monitoring
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~10 lines (mostly just adding ApplyBALAndComputeRoot)
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.2: ✅ ALREADY EXISTS - BAL History Database Schema
+
+**File:** `core/rawdb/schema.go` line 172
+
+**Agent confirmed:** Schema already exists!
+```go
+balHistoryPrefix = []byte("p") // balHistoryPrefix + num (uint64 big endian) -> RLP(bal.BlockAccessList)
+```
+
+**Key format:** `"p" + blockNumber(8 bytes, big-endian)` → RLP-encoded BlockAccessList
+
+**Estimated changes:** 0 lines (already exists)
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.3: ✅ ALREADY EXISTS - BAL History Accessors
+
+**File:** `core/rawdb/accessors_bal.go`
+
+**Agent confirmed:** All accessors already implemented!
+- `ReadBALHistory(db, blockNum)` ✅
+- `WriteBALHistory(db, blockNum, accessList)` ✅
+- `DeleteBALHistory(db, blockNum)` ✅
+- `HasBALHistory(db, blockNum)` ✅
+- `PruneBALHistory(db, beforeBlock)` ✅ (with safe range iteration)
+
+**Estimated changes:** 0 lines (already exists)
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.4: ✅ ALREADY EXISTS - BALHistory Wrapper
+
+**File:** `core/state/partial/history.go`
+
+**Agent confirmed:** BALHistory wrapper already implemented!
+```go
+type BALHistory struct {
+ db ethdb.Database
+ retention uint64
+}
+
+// Methods: Store(), Get(), Delete(), Prune(), Retention()
+```
+
+**Design note:** We have BOTH:
+1. BALHistory in `partial/history.go` - for explicit BAL storage/retrieval
+2. Blocks contain BALs - can also access via block
+
+For reorgs, we'll use BALHistory since it's already built and tested.
+
+**Estimated changes:** 0 lines (already exists)
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.5: Implement ApplyBALAndComputeRoot
+
+**File:** `core/state/partial/state.go` (extend)
+
+**Key implementation requirements (from code review and agent research):**
+
+1. **BAL field names**: Use `Accesses` (not `Writes`) and `ValueAfter` (not `Value`) per `core/types/bal/bal_encoding.go`
+2. **Commit ordering**: Storage tries → update account.Root → account trie (critical for correct state root)
+3. **Account origin tracking**: Track `existed` flag to prevent incorrect EIP-161 deletion
+4. **Code handling**: Update CodeHash for ALL accounts, store code bytes only for tracked contracts
+5. **PathDB StateSet**: Must construct proper `triedb.StateSet` for `trieDB.Update()` call
+
+**PathDB StateSet construction (from agent research on `core/state/statedb.go`):**
+
+The `trieDB.Update()` signature is:
+```go
+func (db *Database) Update(root, parent common.Hash, block uint64, nodes *trienode.MergedNodeSet, states *StateSet) error
+```
+
+The `StateSet` structure requires:
+```go
+type StateSet struct {
+ Accounts map[common.Hash][]byte // Mutated accounts in 'slim RLP' encoding
+ AccountsOrigin map[common.Address][]byte // Original account values (for PathDB)
+ Storages map[common.Hash]map[common.Hash][]byte // Storage: accountHash → slotHash → value
+ StoragesOrigin map[common.Address]map[common.Hash][]byte // Original storage values
+ RawStorageKey bool // false = use hashed keys
+}
+```
+
+**Key encoding requirements:**
+- Accounts: Use `types.SlimAccountRLP(account)` for encoding
+- Storage values: Use prefix-zero-trimmed RLP (`rlp.EncodeToBytes(common.TrimLeftZeroes(val[:]))`)
+- Storage keys: Must be hashed (`crypto.Keccak256Hash(rawKey[:])`)
+- Nil values indicate deletion
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~250 lines (includes PathDB StateSet construction)
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.6: Implement ProcessBlockWithBAL
+
+**File:** `core/blockchain_partial.go` (NEW)
+
+**Trust Model:** Blocks via Engine API are pre-attested by the Consensus Layer. The function documents this trust model clearly in its comments, explaining why no additional attestation verification is needed (same as full nodes).
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~100 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.7: Implement Reorg Handling
+
+**File:** `core/blockchain_partial.go` (extend)
+
+**DESIGN:** Reorg handling accesses blocks directly (which contain BALs), NOT a separate BALHistory. This mirrors how full nodes handle reorgs.
+
+**Key differences from full node reorg:**
+- Full node: re-executes transactions on new chain
+- Partial node: applies BALs from new chain blocks
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~50 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.8: Wire PartialState into BlockChain
+
+**File:** `core/blockchain.go` (modify)
+
+**Agent findings on BlockChain state patterns:**
+
+**Existing state fields (lines 311-366):**
+```go
+type BlockChain struct {
+ db ethdb.Database // Low-level persistent database
+ snaps *snapshot.Tree // Snapshot tree for fast trie leaf access
+ triedb *triedb.Database // TrieDB handler for maintaining trie nodes
+ statedb *state.CachingDB // State database (reused between imports)
+ // ... caches, processor, validator, etc.
+}
+```
+
+**Add partialState alongside existing fields:**
+```go
+type BlockChain struct {
+ // ... existing fields ...
+
+ // Partial state management (nil if full node)
+ partialState *partial.PartialState
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~40 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.9: Add Unit Tests
+
+**File:** `core/state/partial/state_test.go` (NEW)
+
+```go
+func TestApplyBALAndComputeRoot(t *testing.T) {
+ // Test that BAL application produces correct state root
+}
+
+func TestApplyStorageChanges(t *testing.T) {
+ // Test storage updates for tracked contracts
+}
+
+func TestApplyBalanceChanges(t *testing.T) {
+ // Test balance updates from BAL
+}
+
+func TestFilteredStorageChanges(t *testing.T) {
+ // Test that untracked contract storage is not applied
+}
+```
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~100 lines
+
+---
+
+### Task 3.10: Integration Test
+
+**File:** `core/blockchain_partial_test.go` (NEW)
+
+Test end-to-end BAL processing:
+1. Create a chain with known state
+2. Generate BALs for blocks
+3. Process blocks with `ProcessBlockWithBAL`
+4. Verify state roots match
+5. Test reorg handling
+
+**Estimated changes:** ~200 lines
+
+---

+

+
+## Local Testing Strategy
+
+### 1. Unit Test Execution
+```bash
+go test ./core/state/partial/... -v
+go test ./core/rawdb/... -run TestBAL -v
+```
+
+### 2. Build Verification
+```bash
+go build ./...
+go build ./cmd/geth
+```
+
+### 3. Integration Test
+```bash
+go test ./core/... -run TestPartialBlock -v -timeout 5m
+```
+
+---
+
+## Open Items
+
+1. **Engine API Integration**: BAL delivery is **already standardized** via extended Engine API methods:
+ - `engine_newPayloadV5`: Validates computed access lists match provided BAL
+ - `engine_getPayloadV6`: Returns `ExecutionPayloadV4` containing RLP-encoded BAL
+ - `engine_getPayloadBodiesByHashV2` / `engine_getPayloadBodiesByRangeV2`: Retrieve historical BALs
+ - **Status**: No additional design needed - use existing Engine API
+
+---
+
+## Critical Invariants
+
+1. **State root must match**: Computed root from BAL application MUST match header's stateRoot
+2. **BAL hash verification**: Always verify BAL hash before processing
+3. **Account trie complete**: All account changes apply (balance, nonce, codeHash); only storage/code bytes are filtered for untracked
+4. **No execution required**: Block processing uses only BAL data, never re-executes transactions
+5. **Commit ordering**: Storage tries MUST be committed BEFORE account trie (storage roots needed first)
+6. **EIP-161 compliance**: Only delete accounts that were modified AND are now empty AND previously existed
+7. **BAL field names**: Use `Accesses` (not `Writes`) and `ValueAfter` (not `Value`) per `core/types/bal/bal_encoding.go`
+8. **PathDB StateSet**: Must construct proper `triedb.StateSet` with accounts/storage and their origins for `trieDB.Update()`
+
+## Design Decisions
+
+1. **SELFDESTRUCT is tracked**: Per EIP-7928, "Accounts destroyed within a transaction MUST be included in AccountChanges without nonce or code changes." Self-destructed accounts appear in BAL with balance changes but no nonce/code changes.
+
+2. **Code handling for tracked vs untracked contracts**:
+ - **All accounts**: Update `CodeHash` in account trie (required for correct state root)
+ - **Tracked contracts only**: Store actual code bytes via `rawdb.WriteCode()`
+ - **Untracked contracts**: Skip storing code bytes (saves storage, code not needed for partial state)
+
+3. **Block attestation trust model** (Post-Merge architecture):
+ - **CL responsibility**: Proposer signatures, sync committee attestations (2/3+ threshold), finality proofs, consensus rules
+ - **EL responsibility**: Transaction execution, state root computation, receipt validation
+ - **Trust boundary**: Blocks via Engine API (`engine_newPayloadV5`) are pre-attested by CL; EL trusts CL for consensus
+ - **Partial state nodes**: Receive blocks via Engine API, so attestations are already verified
+ - **Light client sync** (future): If blocks come from untrusted sources, use `beacon/light/CommitteeChain.VerifySignedHeader()`
