This pull request improves error handling for local transaction submissions.
Specifically, if a transaction fails with a temporary error but might be
accepted later, the error will not be returned to the user; instead, the
transaction will be tracked locally for resubmission.
However, if the transaction fails with a permanent error (e.g., invalid
transaction or insufficient balance), the error will be propagated to the user.
These errors returned in the legacyPool are regarded as temporary failure:
- `ErrOutOfOrderTxFromDelegated`
- `txpool.ErrInflightTxLimitReached`
- `ErrAuthorityReserved`
- `txpool.ErrUnderpriced`
- `ErrTxPoolOverflow`
- `ErrFutureReplacePending`
Notably, InsufficientBalance is also treated as a permanent error, as
it’s highly unlikely that users will transfer funds into the sender account
after submitting the transaction. Otherwise, users may be confused—seeing
their transaction submitted but unaware that the sender lacks sufficient funds—and
continue waiting for it to be included.

This PR proposes a change to the authorizations' validation introduced
in commit cdb66c8. These changes make the expected behavior independent
of the order of admission of authorizations, improving the
predictability of the resulting state and the usability of the system
with it.
The current implementation behavior is dependent on the transaction
submission order: This issue is related to authorities and the sender of
a transaction, and can be reproduced respecting the normal nonce rules.
The issue can be reproduced by the two following cases:
**First case**
- Given an empty pool.
- Submit transaction `{ from: B, auths [ A ] }`: is accepted.
- Submit transaction `{ from: A }`: Is accepted: it becomes the one
in-flight transaction allowed.
**Second case**
- Given an empty pool.
- Submit transaction `{ from: A }`: is accepted
- Submit transaction `{ from: B, auths [ A ] }`: is rejected since there
is already a queued/pending transaction from A.
The expected behavior is that both sequences of events would lead to the
same sets of accepted and rejected transactions.
**Proposed changes**
The queued/pending transactions issued from any authority of the
transaction being validated have to be counted, allowing one transaction
from accounts submitting an authorization.
- Notice that the expected behavior was explicitly forbidden in the case
"reject-delegation-from-pending-account", I believe that this behavior
conflicts to the definition of the limitation, and it is removed in this
PR. The expected behavior is tested in
"accept-authorization-from-sender-of-one-inflight-tx".
- Replacement tests have been separated to improve readability of the
acceptance test.
- The test "allow-more-than-one-tx-from-replaced-authority" has been
extended with one extra transaction, since the system would always have
accepted one transaction (but not two).
- The test "accept-one-inflight-tx-of-delegated-account" is extended to
clean-up state, avoiding leaking the delegation used into the other
tests. Additionally, replacement check is removed to be tested in its
own test case.
**Expected behavior**
The expected behavior of the authorizations' validation shall be as
follows:
Notice that replacement shall be allowed, and behavior shall remain
coherent with the table, according to the replaced transaction.

This pull request introduces two constraints in the blobPool:
(a) If the sender has a pending authorization or delegation, only one
in-flight
executable transaction can be cached.
(b) If the authority address in a SetCode transaction is already
reserved by
the blobPool, the transaction will be rejected.
These constraints mitigate an attack where an attacker spams the pool
with
numerous blob transactions, evicts other transactions, and then cancels
all
pending blob transactions by draining the sender’s funds if they have a
delegation.
Note, because there is no exclusive lock held between different subpools
when processing transactions, it's totally possible the SetCode
transaction
and blob transactions with conflict sender and authorities are accepted
simultaneously. I think it's acceptable as it's very hard to be
exploited.

This is an alternative to #31309
With eth/68, transaction announcement must have transaction type and
size. So in announceTransactions, we need to query the transaction from
transaction pool with its hash. This creates overhead in case of blob
transaction which needs to load data from billy and RLP decode. This
commit creates a lightweight lookup from transaction hash to transaction
size and a function GetMetadata to query transaction type and
transaction size given the transaction hash.

Currently, when answering GetPooledTransaction request, txpool.Get() is
used. When the requested hash is blob transaction, blobpool.Get() is
called. This function loads the RLP-encoded transaction from limbo then
decodes and returns. Later, in answerGetPooledTransactions, we need to
RLP encode again. This decode then encode is wasteful. This commit adds
GetRLP to transaction pool interface so that answerGetPooledTransactions
can use the RLP-encoded from limbo directly.

In transaction-sending APIs such as `eth_sendRawTransaction`, a submitted transaction
failing the configured txpool validation rules (i.e. fee too low) would cause an error to be
returned, even though the transaction was successfully added into the locals tracker.
Once added there, the transaction may even be included into the chain at a later time,
when fee market conditions change.
This change improves on this by performing the validation in the locals tracker, basically
skipping some of the validation rules for local transactions. We still try to add the tx to the
main pool immediately, but an error will only be returned for transactions which are
fundamentally invalid.

Replaces #29297, descendant from #27535
---------
This PR removes `locals` as a concept from transaction pools. Therefore,
the pool now acts as very a good simulation/approximation of how our
peers' pools behave. What this PR does instead, is implement a
locals-tracker, which basically is a little thing which, from time to
time, asks the pool "did you forget this transaction?". If it did, the
tracker resubmits it.
If the txpool _had_ forgotten it, chances are that the peers had also
forgotten it. It will be propagated again.
Doing this change means that we can simplify the pool internals, quite a
lot.
### The semantics of `local`
Historically, there has been two features, or usecases, that has been
combined into the concept of `locals`.
1. "I want my local node to remember this transaction indefinitely, and
resubmit to the network occasionally"
2. "I want this (valid) transaction included to be top-prio for my
miner"
This PR splits these features up, let's call it `1: local` and `2:
prio`. The `prio` is not actually individual transaction, but rather a
set of `address`es to prioritize.
The attribute `local` means it will be tracked, and `prio` means it will
be prioritized by miner.
For `local`: anything transaction received via the RPC is marked as
`local`, and tracked by the tracker.
For `prio`: any transactions from this sender is included first, when
building a block. The existing commandline-flag `--txpool.locals` sets
the set of `prio` addresses.

This PR upgrades `golangci-lint` to v1.63.4 and fixes a warn message
which is reported by v1.63.4:
```text
WARN [config_reader] The configuration option `run.skip-dirs-use-default` is deprecated, please use `issues.exclude-dirs-use-default`.
```
Also fixes 2 warnings which are reported by v1.63.4:
```text
core/txpool/blobpool/blobpool.go:1754:12: S1005: unnecessary assignment to the blank identifier (gosimple)

core/txpool/legacypool/legacypool.go:1989:19: S1005: unnecessary assignment to the blank identifier (gosimple)
for localSender, _ := range pool.locals.accounts {

```
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 PR fixes some issues with benchmarks
- [x] Removes log output from a log-test
- [x] Avoids a `nil`-defer in `triedb/pathdb`
- [x] Fixes some crashes re tracers
- [x] Refactors a very resource-expensive benchmark for blobpol.
**NOTE**: this rewrite touches live production code (a little bit), as
it makes the validator-function used by the blobpool configurable.
- [x] Switch some benches over to use pebble over leveldb
- [x] reduce mem overhead in the setup-phase of some tests
- [x] Marks some tests with a long setup-phase to be skipped if `-short`
is specified (where long is on the order of tens of seconds). Ideally,
in my opinion, one should be able to run with `-benchtime 10ms -short`
and sanity-check all tests very quickly.
- [x] Drops some metrics-bechmark which times the speed of `copy`.

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 does not change the behavior here as the nonce in the argument is
tx.Nonce(). This commit helps to make the function easier to read and avoid
capturing the tx in the function.

This change makes the legacy transaction pool use of `uint256.Int` instead of `big.Int`. The changes are made primarily only on the internal functions of legacypool.

This change makes use of uin256 to represent balance in state. It touches primarily upon statedb, stateobject and state processing, trying to avoid changes in transaction pools, core types, rpc and tracers.
This PR removes the newly added txpool.Transaction wrapper type, and instead adds a way
of keeping the blob sidecar within types.Transaction. It's better this way because most
code in go-ethereum does not care about blob transactions, and probably never will. This
will start mattering especially on the client side of RPC, where all APIs are based on
types.Transaction. Users need to be able to use the same signing flows they already
have.
However, since blobs are only allowed in some places but not others, we will now need to
add checks to avoid creating invalid blocks. I'm still trying to figure out the best place
to do some of these. The way I have it currently is as follows:
- In block validation (import), txs are verified not to have a blob sidecar.
- In miner, we strip off the sidecar when committing the transaction into the block.
- In TxPool validation, txs must have a sidecar to be added into the blobpool.
- Note there is a special case here: when transactions are re-added because of a chain
reorg, we cannot use the transactions gathered from the old chain blocks as-is,
because they will be missing their blobs. This was previously handled by storing the
blobs into the 'blobpool limbo'. The code has now changed to store the full
transaction in the limbo instead, but it might be confusing for code readers why we're
not simply adding the types.Transaction we already have.
Code changes summary:
- txpool.Transaction removed and all uses replaced by types.Transaction again
- blobpool now stores types.Transaction instead of defining its own blobTx format for storage
- the blobpool limbo now stores types.Transaction instead of storing only the blobs
- checks to validate the presence/absence of the blob sidecar added in certain critical places
