We backported branch `extended-tracer` at commit 3078dfe80b back to v1.13.5 of Geth.
To achieve the backport, we did:
- git checkout -b extended-tracer-squashed
- git reset --hard 3078dfe80b
- git reset --mixed fc380f52ef # This was the latest merged commit not from `extended-tracer` branch
- git commit -A -m "<This message>"
- git checkout v1.13.5
- git checkout -b extended-tracer-backport-v1.13.5
- git cherry-pick extended-tracer-squashed
The Go authors updated golang/x/ext to change the function signature of the slices sort method.
It's an entire shitshow now because x/ext is not tagged, so everyone's codebase just
picked a new version that some other dep depends on, causing our code to fail building.
This PR updates the dep on our code too and does all the refactorings to follow upstream...
The state availability is checked during the creation of a state reader.
- In hash-based database, if the specified root node does not exist on disk disk, then
the state reader won't be created and an error will be returned.
- In path-based database, if the specified state layer is not available, then the
state reader won't be created and an error will be returned.
This change also contains a stricter semantics regarding the `Commit` operation: once it has been performed, the trie is no longer usable, and certain operations will return an error.
