traceBlockParallel replays transactions from the parent state to build per-tx prestate for tracers. In the previous flow, Prague's parent-hash system contract processing was not applied before replay, so the prepared state could diverge from canonical block execution semantics.
This commit keeps the parallel tracing path consistent with block processing rules by applying ProcessParentBlockHash before tx replay when Prague is active.
The regression test TestTraceBlockParallelPragueParentHashSystemCall is strengthened to assert the actual EIP-2935 history slot value (ring-buffer key for block-1) equals block.ParentHash(), instead of relying on an indirect EXTCODESIZE side effect. This makes the test deterministic and directly tied to the bug.
Validation: go test ./eth/tracers -run TestTraceBlockParallelPragueParentHashSystemCall
Breaking changes:
- The ChainConfig was exposed to tracers via VMContext passed in
`OnTxStart`. This is unnecessary specially looking through the lens of
live tracers as chain config remains the same throughout the lifetime of
the program. It was there so that native API-invoked tracers could
access it. So instead we moved it to the constructor of API tracers.
Non-breaking:
- Change the default config of the tracers to be `{}` instead of nil.
This way an extra nil check can be avoided.
Refactoring:
- Rename `supply` struct to `supplyTracer`.
- Un-export some hook definitions.

Here we add a Go API for running tracing plugins within the main block import process.
As an advanced user of geth, you can now create a Go file in eth/tracers/live/, and within
that file register your custom tracer implementation. Then recompile geth and select your tracer
on the command line. Hooks defined in the tracer will run whenever a block is processed.
The hook system is defined in package core/tracing. It uses a struct with callbacks, instead of
requiring an interface, for several reasons:
- We plan to keep this API stable long-term. The core/tracing hook API does not depend on
on deep geth internals.
- There are a lot of hooks, and tracers will only need some of them. Using a struct allows you
to implement only the hooks you want to actually use.
All existing tracers in eth/tracers/native have been rewritten to use the new hook system.
This change breaks compatibility with the vm.EVMLogger interface that we used to have.
If you are a user of vm.EVMLogger, please migrate to core/tracing, and sorry for breaking
your stuff. But we just couldn't have both the old and new tracing APIs coexist in the EVM.

This PR modifies the interface for the results of `debug_traceBlock` and `debug_traceCall` by adding the `txHash`, allowing users to identify which transaction's trace result corresponds to.

Adds support for a native call tracer with the Parity format, which outputs call frames
in a flat array. This tracer accepts the following options:
- `convertParityErrors: true` will convert error messages to match those of Parity
- `includePrecompiles: true` will report all calls to precompiles. The default
matches Parity's behavior where CALL and STATICCALLs to precompiles are excluded
Incompatibilities with Parity include:
- Parity removes the result object in case of failure. This behavior is maintained
with the exception of reverts. Revert output usually contains useful information,
i.e. Solidity revert reason.
- The `gasUsed` field accounts for intrinsic gas (e.g. 21000 for simple transfers)
and refunds unlike Parity
- Block rewards are not reported

This makes non-JS tracers execute all block txs on a single goroutine.
In the previous implementation, we used to prepare every tx pre-state
on one goroutine, and then run the transactions again with tracing enabled.
Native tracers are usually faster, so it is faster overall to use their output as
the pre-state for tracing the next transaction.

This ensures that RPC method handlers will react to a timeout or
cancelled request soon after the event occurs.

Currently calling `debug_TraceTransaction` with a transaction hash that doesn't exist returns a confusing error: `genesis is not traceable`. This PR changes the behaviour to instead return an error message saying `transaction not found`

This PR introduces a new mechanism in chain tracer for preventing creating too many trace states.
The workflow of chain tracer can be divided into several parts:
- state creator generates trace state in a thread
- state tracer retrieves the trace state and applies the tracing on top in another thread
- state collector gathers all result from state tracer and stream to users
It's basically a producer-consumer model here, while if we imagine that the state producer generates states too fast, then it will lead to accumulate lots of unused states in memory. Even worse, in path-based state scheme it will only keep the latest 128 states in memory, and the newly generated state will invalidate the oldest one by marking it as stale.
The solution for fixing it is to limit the speed of state generation. If there are over 128 states un-consumed in memory, then the creation will be paused until the states are be consumed properly.
