Added tests for executor and some improvements:
1. Add a dependency map during execution. This will prevent aborted tasks from being sent for execution immedaitely after failure.
2. Change the key of MVHashMap from string to a byte array. This will reduce time to convert byte slices to strings.
3. Use sync.Map to reduce the time spent in global mutex.
4. Skip applying intermediate states.
5. Estimate dependency when an execution fails without dependency information.
6. Divide execution task queue into two separate queues. One for relatively certain transactions, and the other for speculative future transactions.
7. Setting dependencies of Txs coming from the same sender before starting parallel execution.
8. Process results in their semantic order (transaction index) instead of the order when they arrive. Replace result channel with a priority queue.
This change introduces garbage collection for the light client. Historical
chain data is deleted periodically. If you want to disable the GC, use
the --light.nopruning flag.
This finally adds the error check that the documentation of StateDB.dbErr
promises to do. dbErr was added in 9e5f03b6c (June 2017), and the check was
already missing in that commit. We somehow survived without it for three years.
With this commit, core/state's access to the underlying key/value database is
mediated through an interface. Database errors are tracked in StateDB and
returned by CommitTo or the new Error method.
Motivation for this change: We can remove the light client's duplicated copy of
core/state. The light client now supports node iteration, so tracing and storage
enumeration can work with the light client (not implemented in this commit).
In `touch` operation, only `touched` filed has been changed. Therefore
in the related undo function, only `touched` field should be reverted.
In addition, whether remove this obj from dirty map should depend on
prevDirty flag.
This significantly reduces the dependency closure of ethclient, which no
longer depends on core/vm as of this change.
All uses of vm.Logs are replaced by []*types.Log. NewLog is gone too,
the constructor simply returned a literal.
This commit implements EIP158 part 1, 2, 3 & 4
1. If an account is empty it's no longer written to the trie. An empty
account is defined as (balance=0, nonce=0, storage=0, code=0).
2. Delete an empty account if it's touched
3. An empty account is redefined as either non-existent or empty.
4. Zero value calls and zero value suicides no longer consume the 25k
reation costs.
params: moved core/config to params

This commit replaces the deep-copy based state revert mechanism with a
linear complexity journal. This commit also hides several internal
StateDB methods to limit the number of ways in which calling code can
use the journal incorrectly.
As usual consultation and bug fixes to the initial implementation were
provided by @karalabe, @obscuren and @Arachnid. Thank you!
