The periodic sealing loop failed to reset its timer when sealBlock
returned an error, causing the timer to never fire again and effectively
halting block production in developer periodic mode after the first
failure. This is a bug because the loop relies on the timer to trigger
subsequent sealing attempts, and transient errors (e.g., pool races or
chain rewinds) should not permanently stop the loop. The change moves
timer.Reset after the sealing attempt unconditionally, ensuring the loop
continues ticking and retrying even when sealing fails, which matches
how other periodic timers in the codebase behave and preserves forward
progress.
This PR updates the `payloadVersion` function in `simulated_beacon.go`
to handle additional following forks used during development and testing
phases after Osaka.
This change ensures that the simulated beacon correctly resolves the
payload version for these forks, enabling consistent and valid execution
payload handling during local testing or simulation.
geth cmd: `geth --dev --dev.period 5`
call: `debug.setHead` to rollback several blocks.
If the `debug.setHead` call is delayed, it will trigger a panic with a
small probability, due to using the null point of
`fcResponse.PayloadID`.

this adds 2 features to improve `geth --dev` experience.
1. we don't need to use `dev_SetFeeRecipient` to set initial coinbase
address. it was a pain.
2. we don't need to unlock keystore if we don't use it. we had it
because of clique.
This adds an API method `DropTransactions` to legacy pool, blob pool and
txpool interface. This method removes all txs currently tracked in the
pools.
It modifies the simulated beacon to use the new method in `Rollback`
which removes previous hacky implementation that also erroneously reset
the gas tip to 1 gwei.

This is a redo of #29052 based on newer specs. Here we implement EIPs
scheduled for the Prague fork:
- EIP-7002: Execution layer triggerable withdrawals
- EIP-7251: Increase the MAX_EFFECTIVE_BALANCE

Reverts ethereum/go-ethereum#30495
You are free to create a proper Clear method if that's the best way. But
one that does a proper cleanup, not some hacky call to set gas which
screws up logs, metrics and everything along the way. Also doesn't work
for legacy pool local transactions.
The current code had a hack in the simulated code, now we have a hack in
live txpooling code. No, that's not acceptable. I want the live code to
be proper, meaningful API, meaningful comments, meaningful
implementation.
Here we move the method that drops all transactions by temporarily increasing the fee
into the TxPool itself. It's better to have it there because we can set it back to the
configured value afterwards. This resolves a TODO in the simulated backend.
This PR integrates witness-enabled block production, witness-creating
payload execution and stateless cross-validation into the `engine` API.
The purpose of the PR is to enable the following use-cases (for API
details, please see next section):
- Cross validating locally created blocks:
- Call `forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitness` instead of `forkchoiceUpdated` to
trigger witness creation too.
- Call `getPayload` as before to retrieve the new block and also the
above created witness.
- Call `executeStatelessPayload` against another client to
cross-validate the block.
- Cross validating locally processed blocks:
- Call `newPayloadWithWitness` instead of `newPayload` to trigger
witness creation too.
- Call `executeStatelessPayload` against another client to
cross-validate the block.
- Block production for stateless clients (local or MEV builders):
- Call `forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitness` instead of `forkchoiceUpdated` to
trigger witness creation too.
- Call `getPayload` as before to retrieve the new block and also the
above created witness.
- Propagate witnesses across the consensus libp2p network for stateless
Ethereum.
- Stateless validator validation:
- Call `executeStatelessPayload` with the propagated witness to
statelessly validate the block.
*Note, the various `WithWitness` methods could also *just be* an
additional boolean flag on the base methods, but this PR wanted to keep
the methods separate until a final consensus is reached on how to
integrate in production.*

The following `engine` API types are introduced:
```go
// StatelessPayloadStatusV1 is the result of a stateless payload execution.
type StatelessPayloadStatusV1 struct {
Status string `json:"status"`
StateRoot common.Hash `json:"stateRoot"`
ReceiptsRoot common.Hash `json:"receiptsRoot"`
ValidationError *string `json:"validationError"`
}
```
- Add `forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitnessV1,2,3` with same params and returns
as `forkchoiceUpdatedV1,2,3`, but triggering a stateless witness
building if block production is requested.
- Extend `getPayloadV2,3` to return `executionPayloadEnvelope` with an
additional `witness` field of type `bytes` iff created via
`forkchoiceUpdatedWithWitnessV2,3`.
- Add `newPayloadWithWitnessV1,2,3,4` with same params and returns as
`newPayloadV1,2,3,4`, but triggering a stateless witness creation during
payload execution to allow cross validating it.
- Extend `payloadStatusV1` with a `witness` field of type `bytes` if
returned by `newPayloadWithWitnessV1,2,3,4`.
- Add `executeStatelessPayloadV1,2,3,4` with same base params as
`newPayloadV1,2,3,4` and one more additional param (`witness`) of type
`bytes`. The method returns `statelessPayloadStatusV1`, which mirrors
`payloadStatusV1` but replaces `latestValidHash` with `stateRoot` and
`receiptRoot`.
closes#29475, replaces #29657, #30104
Fixes two issues. First is a deadlock where the txpool attempts to reorg, but can't complete because there are no readers left for the new txs subscription. Second, resolves a problem with on demand mode where txs may be left pending when there are more pending txs than block space.

This should fix an occasional test failure in ethclient/simulated.TestForkResendTx.
Inspection of logs revealed the cause of the failure to be that the txpool was not done
reorganizing by the time Fork is called.
GetPayloadVX should only return payloads which match its version. GetPayloadV2 is a special snowflake that supports v1 and v2 payloads. This change uses a a version-specific prefix within in the payload id, basically a namespace for the version number.
This PR fixes an issues in the new simulated backend. The root cause is the fact that the transaction pool has an internal reset operation that runs on a background thread.
When a new transaction is added to the pool via the RPC, the transaction is added to a non-executable queue and will be moved to its final location on a background thread. If the machine is overloaded (or simply due to timing issues), it can happen that the simulated backend will try to produce the next block, whilst the pool has not yet marked the newly added transaction executable. This will cause the block to not contain the transaction. This is an issue because we want determinism from the simulator: add a tx, mine a block. It should be in there.
The PR fixes it by adding a Sync function to the txpool, which waits for the current reset operation (if any) to finish, and then runs an entire round of reset on top. The new round is needed because resets are only triggered by new head events, so newly added transactions will not trigger the outer resets that we can wait on. The transaction pool would eventually internally do a reset even on transaction addition, but there's no easy way to wait on that and there's no meaningful reason to bubble that across everything. A clean outer reset will at worse be a small noop goroutine.
This is a rewrite of the 'simulated backend', an implementation of the ethclient interfaces
which is backed by a simulated blockchain. It was getting annoying to maintain the old
version of the simulated backend feature because there was a lot of code duplication with
the main client.
The new version is built using parts that we already have: an in-memory geth node instance
running in developer mode provides the chain, while the Go API is provided by ethclient.
A backwards-compatibility wrapper is provided, but the simulated backend has also moved to
a more sensible import path: github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/ethclient/simulated

geth --dev can be used with an existing data directory and genesis block. Since
dev mode only works with PoS, we need to verify that the merge has happened.

This is a spin-out from the EIP-4844 devnet branch, containing just the Engine API modifications
and nothing else. The newPayloadV3 endpoint won't really work in this version, but we need the
data structures for testing so I'd like to get this in early.
