This pull request refactors the genesis setup function, the major
changes are highlighted here:
**(a) Triedb is opened in verkle mode if `EnableVerkleAtGenesis` is
configured in chainConfig or the database has been initialized previously with
`EnableVerkleAtGenesis` configured**.
A new config field `EnableVerkleAtGenesis` has been added in the
chainConfig. This field must be configured with True if Geth wants to initialize
the genesis in Verkle mode.
In the verkle devnet-7, the verkle transition is activated at genesis.
Therefore, the verkle rules should be used since the genesis. In production
networks (mainnet and public testnets), verkle activation always occurs after
the genesis block. Therefore, this flag is only made for devnet and should be
deprecated later. Besides, verkle transition at non-genesis block hasn't been
implemented yet, it should be done in the following PRs.
**(b) The genesis initialization condition has been simplified**
There is a special mode supported by the Geth is that: Geth can be
initialized with an existing chain segment, which can fasten the node sync
process by retaining the chain freezer folder.
Originally, if the triedb is regarded as uninitialized and the genesis block can
be found in the chain freezer, the genesis block along with genesis state will be
committed. This condition has been simplified to checking the presence of chain
config in key-value store. The existence of chain config can represent the genesis
has been committed.
This pull request ports some changes from the main state snapshot
integration one, specifically introducing the flat state tracking in
pathdb.
Note, the tracked flat state changes are only held in memory and won't
be persisted in the disk. Meanwhile, the correspoding state retrieval in
persistent state is also not supported yet. The states management in
disk is more complicated and will be implemented in a separate pull
request.
Part 1: https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/pull/30752
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`
Add read locking of db lock around access to dirties cache in hashdb.Database to prevent
data race versus hashdb.Database.dereference which can modify the dirities map by deleting
an item.
Fixes#28541

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.
The clean trie cache is persisted periodically, therefore Geth can
quickly warmup the cache in next restart.
However it will reduce the robustness of system. The assumption is
held in Geth that if the parent trie node is present, then the entire
sub-trie associated with the parent are all prensent.
Imagine the scenario that Geth rewinds itself to a past block and
restart, but Geth finds the root node of "future state" in clean
cache then regard this state is present in disk, while is not in fact.
Another example is offline pruning tool. Whenever an offline pruning
is performed, the clean cache file has to be removed to aviod hitting
the root node of "deleted states" in clean cache.
All in all, compare with the minor performance gain, system robustness
is something we care more.

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.
