When new block is imported, there is no need to commit the current
work, even the new imported block is offturn and itself is inturn.
That is because when offturn block is received, the inturn block is
already later to broadcast block, deliver the later block will cause
many reorg, which is not reasonable.
And also make sure all useless work can be discarded, to avoid goroutine leak.
Currently, validator only try once to get transactions from TxPool to produce the block.
However, new transactions could arrive while the validator is committing transaction.
Validator should be allowed to add these new arrived transactions as long as
Header.Timestamp is not reached
This commit will:
** commitTransactions return with error code
** drop current mining block on new block imported
** try fillTransactions several times for the best
not use append mode to follow the GasPrice rule.
** check if there is enough time for another fillTransactions.
Right now, DelayLeftOver is used to reserve time for block finalize, not block
broadcast. And the code does not work as expected.
The general block generation could be described as:
|- fillTransactions -|- finalize a block -|- wait until the period(3s) reached -|- broadcast -|
* consensus: use the maxGasLimit constant to check the header.GasLimit to avoid creating new variables repeatedly
* consensus: check the header.GasLimit by the public constant MaxGasLimit
* consensus: check the header.GasLimit by the constant MaxGasLimit
This is the initial implementation of EIP-1559 in packages core/types and core.
Mining, RPC, etc. will be added in subsequent commits.

This change adds the --catalyst flag, enabling an RPC API for eth2 integration.
In this initial version, catalyst mode also disables all peer-to-peer networking.

The PR makes use of the stacktrie, which is is more lenient on resource consumption, than the regular trie, in cases where we only need it for DeriveSha
This PR implements the following modifications
- Don't shortcut check if block is present, thus avoid disk lookup
- Don't check hash ancestry in early-check (it's still done in parallel checker)
- Don't check time.Now for every single header
Charts and background info can be found here: https://github.com/holiman/headerimport/blob/main/README.md
With these changes, writing 1M headers goes down to from 80s to 62s.
This PR adds re-written difficulty calculators, which are based on uint256. It also adds a fuzzer + oss-fuzz integration for the new fuzzer. It does differential fuzzing between the new and old calculators.
Note: this PR does not actually enable the new calculators.
* miner: commit state which is relative with sealing result
* consensus, core, miner, mobile: introduce sealHash interface
* miner: evict pending task with threshold
* miner: go fmt
* consensus/ethash: add maxEpoch constant
* consensus/ethash: improve cache/dataset handling
There are two fixes in this commit:
Unmap the memory through a finalizer like the libethash wrapper did. The
release logic was incorrect and freed the memory while it was being
used, leading to crashes like in #14495 or #14943.
Track caches and datasets using simplelru instead of reinventing LRU
logic. This should make it easier to see whether it's correct.
* consensus/ethash: restore 'future item' logic in lru
* consensus/ethash: use mmap even in test mode
This makes it possible to shorten the time taken for TestCacheFileEvict.
* consensus/ethash: shuffle func calc*Size comments around
* consensus/ethash: ensure future cache/dataset is in the lru cache
* consensus/ethash: add issue link to the new test
* consensus/ethash: fix vet
* consensus/ethash: fix test
* consensus: tiny issue + nitpick fixes
