Block execution contains the time it takes to fetch state sync data from heimdall, which sometimes returns data with long latency (> 1s). When the latency is significant, the chain execution time will be affected and become inaccurate. This PR isolate the time of heimdall requests from block execution.
This pull request fixes the broken feature where the entire storage set is overridden.
Originally, the storage set override was achieved by marking the associated account
as deleted, preventing access to the storage slot on disk. However, since #29520, this
flag is also checked when accessing the account, rendering the account unreachable.
A fix has been applied in this pull request, which re-creates a new state object with all
account metadata inherited.

This pull request skips the state snapshot update if the base layer is
not existent, eliminating the numerous warning logs after an unclean
shutdown.
Specifically, Geth will rewind its chain head to a historical block
after unclean shutdown and state snapshot will be remained as unchanged
waiting for recovery. During this period of time, the snapshot is unusable
and all state updates should be ignored/skipped for state snapshot update.
#29995 has been reverted due to an unexpected flaw in the state snapshot
process.
Specifically, it attempts to stop the state snapshot generation, which
could potentially
cause the system to halt if the generation is not currently running.
This pull request ports the changes made in #29995 and fixes the flaw.
This pull request replaces the field pointer in journal entry with the
field itself, specifically the address of mutated account.
While it will introduce the extra allocation cost, but it's easier for
code reading. Let's measure the overhead overall to see if the change is
acceptable or not.
This pull request introduces a state.Reader interface for state
accessing.
The interface could be implemented in various ways. It can be pure trie
only reader, or the combination of trie and state snapshot. What's more,
this interface allows us to have more flexibility in the future, e.g.
the
archive reader (for accessing archive state).
Additionally, this pull request removes the following metrics
- `chain/snapshot/account/reads`
- `chain/snapshot/storage/reads`
This pull request fixes a flaw in prefetcher.
In verkle tree world, both accounts and storage slots are committed into
a single tree instance for state hashing. If the prefetcher is activated, we will
try to pull the trie for the prefetcher for performance speedup.
However, we had a special logic to skip pulling storage trie if the
storage root is empty. While it's true for merkle as we have nothing to
do with an empty storage trie, it's totally wrong for verkle. The consequences
for skipping pulling is the storage changes are committed into trie A, while the
account changes are committed into trie B (pulled from the prefetcher), boom.
This PR implements changes related to
[EIP-6800](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-6800) and
[EIP-4762](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-4762) spec updates.
A TL;DR of the changes is that `Version`, `Balance`, `Nonce` and
`CodeSize` are encoded in a single leaf named `BasicData`. For more
details, see the [_Header Values_ table in
EIP-6800](https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-6800#header-values).
The motivation for this was simplifying access event patterns, reducing
code complexity, and, as a side effect, saving gas since fewer leaf
nodes must be accessed.

This PR adds the bulk verkle witness+proof production at the end of block
production. It reads all data from the tree in one swoop and produces
a verkle proof.

This is a follow-up to #29520, and a preparatory PR to a more thorough
change in the journalling system.
### API methods instead of `append` operations
This PR hides the journal-implementation details away, so that the
statedb invokes methods like `JournalCreate`, instead of explicitly
appending journal-events in a list. This means that it's up to the
journal whether to implement it as a sequence of events or
aggregate/merge events.
### Snapshot-management inside the journal
This PR also makes it so that management of valid snapshots is moved
inside the journal, exposed via the methods `Snapshot() int` and
`RevertToSnapshot(revid int, s *StateDB)`.
### SetCode
JournalSetCode journals the setting of code: it is implicit that the
previous values were "no code" and emptyCodeHash. Therefore, we can
simplify the setCode journal.
### Selfdestruct
The self-destruct journalling is a bit strange: we allow the
selfdestruct operation to be journalled several times. This makes it so
that we also are forced to store whether the account was already
destructed.
What we can do instead, is to only journal the first destruction, and
after that only journal balance-changes, but not journal the
selfdestruct itself.
This simplifies the journalling, so that internals about state
management does not leak into the journal-API.
### Preimages
Preimages were, for some reason, integrated into the journal management,
despite not being a consensus-critical data structure. This PR undoes
that.

This pull request adds a few more performance metrics, specifically:
- The average time cost of an account read
- The average time cost of a storage read
- The rate of account reads
- The rate of storage reads
This pull request fixes the broken feature where the entire storage set is overridden.
Originally, the storage set override was achieved by marking the associated account
as deleted, preventing access to the storage slot on disk. However, since #29520, this
flag is also checked when accessing the account, rendering the account unreachable.
A fix has been applied in this pull request, which re-creates a new state object with all
account metadata inherited.
This pull request adds an additional error check after statedb.IntermediateRoot,
ensuring that no errors occur during this call. This step is essential, as the call might
encounter database errors.
Originally, these metrics were added to track the largest storage wiping.
Since account self-destruction was deprecated with the Cancun fork,
these metrics have become meaningless.
* all: add stateless verifications
* all: simplify witness and integrate it into live geth
