This PR moves the logging/tracing-facilities out of `*state.StateDB`,
in to a wrapping struct which implements `vm.StateDB` instead.
In most places, it is a pretty straight-forward change:
- First, hoisting the invocations from state objects up to the statedb.
- Then making the mutation-methods simply return the previous value, so
that the external logging layer could log everything.
Some internal code uses the direct object-accessors to mutate the state,
particularly in testing and in setting up state overrides, which means
that these changes are unobservable for the hooked layer. Thus, configuring
the overrides are not necessarily part of the API we want to publish.
The trickiest part about the layering is that when the selfdestructs are
finally deleted during `Finalise`, there's the possibility that someone
sent some ether to it, which is burnt at that point, and thus needs to
be logged. The hooked layer reaches into the inner layer to figure out
these events.
In package `vm`, the conversion from `state.StateDB + hooks` into a
hooked `vm.StateDB` is performed where needed.

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 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 PR fixes some flaws with the existing tests.
The randomized testing (TestSnapshotRandom) executes a series of steps which modify the state and create journal-events. Later on, we compare the forward-going-states against the backwards-unrolling-journal-states, and check that they are identical.
The "identical" check is performed using various accessors. It turned out that we failed to check some things:
- the accesslist contents
- the transient storage contents
- the 'newContract' flag
- the dirty storage map
This change adds these new checks
Currently our state journal tracks each storage update to a contract, having the ability to revert those changes to the previously set value.
For the very first modification however, it behaves a bit wonky. Reverting the update doesn't actually remove the dirty-ness of the slot, rather leaves it as "change this slot to it's original value". This can cause issues down the line with for example write witnesses needing to gather an unneeded proof.
This PR modifies the storageChange journal entry to not only track the previous value of a slot, but also whether there was any previous value at all set in the current execution context. In essence, the PR changes the semantic of storageChange so it does not simply track storage changes, rather it tracks dirty storage changes, an important distinction for being able to cleanly revert the journal item.
This addresses an edge-case (detailed in the code comment) where the computation of the intermediate trie root would force the unnecessary resolution of a hash node. The change makes it so that when we process changes from a block, we first process trie-updates and afterwards process trie-deletions.
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 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 change allows the creation of a genesis block for verkle testnets. This makes for a chunk of code that is easier to review and still touches many discussion points.

This change makes the StateDB track the state key value diff of a block transition.
We already tracked current account and storage values for the purpose of updating
the state snapshot. With this PR, we now also track the original (pre-transition) values
of accounts and storage slots.

Continuing with a series of PRs to make the Trie interface more generic, this PR moves
the RLP encoding of storage slots inside the StateTrie and light.Trie implementations,
as other types of tries don't use RLP.
This change renames StateTrie methods to remove the Try* prefix.
We added the Trie methods with prefix 'Try' a long time ago, working
around the problem that most existing methods of Trie did not return the
database error. This weird naming convention has persisted until now.

This changes the Trie interface to add the plain account address as a
parameter to all storage-related methods.
After the introduction of the TryAccount* functions, TryGet, TryUpdate and
TryDelete are now only meant to read an account's storage. In their current
form, they assume that an account storage is stored in a separate trie, and
that the hashing of the slot is independent of its account's address.
The proposed structure for a stateless storage breaks these two
assumptions: the hashing of a slot key requires the address and all slots
and accounts are stored in a single trie.
This PR therefore adds an address parameter to the interface. It is ignored
in the MPT version, so this change has no functional impact, however it
will reduce the diff size when merging verkle trees.
The EmptyRootHash and EmptyCodeHash are defined everywhere in the codebase, this PR replaces all of them with unified one defined in core/types package, and also defines constants for TxRoot, WithdrawalsRoot and UncleRoot
This PR removes the notion of fakeStorage from the state objects, and instead, for any state modifications that are needed, it simply makes the changes.
This changes moves the tracking of "deleted in this block" out from snap-only domain, so that it happens regardless of whether the execution is snapshot-backed or trie-backed.
This changes the StorageTrie method to return an error when the trie
is not available. It used to return an 'empty trie' in this case, but that's
not possible anymore under PBSS.
This PR ports a few changes from PBSS:
- Fix the snapshot generator waiter in case the generation is not even initialized
- Refactor db inspector for ancient store
