Way back we've added `common.math.BigMin` and `common.math.BigMax`.
These were kind of cute helpers, but unfortunate ones, because package
all over out codebase added dependencies to this package just to avoid
having to write out 3 lines of code.
Because of this, we've also started having package name clashes with the
stdlib `math`, which got solves even more badly by moving some helpers
over ***from*** the stdlib into our custom lib (e.g. MaxUint64). The
latter ones were nuked out in a previous PR and this PR nukes out BigMin
and BigMax, inlining them at all call sites.
As we're transitioning to uint256, if need be, we can add a min and max
to that.
Since Decimal is defined as unsiged `uint64`, we should use `strconv.ParseUint` instead of `strconv.ParseInt` during unmarshalling.

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 PR moves our fuzzers from tests/fuzzers into whatever their respective 'native' package is.
The historical reason why they were placed in an external location, is that when they were based on go-fuzz, they could not be "hidden" via the _test.go prefix. So in order to shove them away from the go-ethereum "production code", they were put aside.
But now we've rewritten them to be based on golang testing, and thus can be brought back. I've left (in tests/) the ones that are not production (bls128381), require non-standard imports (secp requires btcec, bn256 requires gnark/google/cloudflare deps).
This PR also adds a fuzzer for precompiled contracts, because why not.
This PR utilizes a newly rewritten replacement for go-118-fuzz-build, namely gofuzz-shim, which utilises the inputs from the fuzzing engine better.
This change addresses an issue in snap sync, specifically when the entire sync process can be halted due to an encountered empty storage range.
Currently, on the snap sync client side, the response to an empty (partial) storage range is discarded as a non-delivery. However, this response can be a valid response, when the particular range requested does not contain any slots.
For instance, consider a large contract where the entire key space is divided into 16 chunks, and there are no available slots in the last chunk [0xf] -> [end]. When the node receives a request for this particular range, the response includes:
The proof with origin [0xf]
A nil storage slot set
If we simply discard this response, the finalization of the last range will be skipped, halting the entire sync process indefinitely. The test case TestSyncWithUnevenStorage can reproduce the scenario described above.
In addition, this change also defines the common variables MaxAddress and MaxHash.
The Go authors updated golang/x/ext to change the function signature of the slices sort method.
It's an entire shitshow now because x/ext is not tagged, so everyone's codebase just
picked a new version that some other dep depends on, causing our code to fail building.
This PR updates the dep on our code too and does all the refactorings to follow upstream...
This PR is a (superior) alternative to https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/pull/26708, it handles deprecation, primarily two specific cases.
`rand.Seed` is typically used in two ways
- `rand.Seed(time.Now().UnixNano())` -- we seed it, just to be sure to get some random, and not always get the same thing on every run. This is not needed, with global seeding, so those are just removed.
- `rand.Seed(1)` this is typically done to ensure we have a stable test. If we rely on this, we need to fix up the tests to use a deterministic prng-source. A few occurrences like this has been replaced with a proper custom source.
`rand.Read` has been replaced by `crypto/rand`.`Read` in this PR.

Alarm is a timer utility that simplifies code where a timer needs to be rescheduled over
and over. Doing this can be tricky with time.Timer or time.AfterFunc because the channel
requires draining in some cases.
Alarm is optimized for use cases where items are tracked in a heap according to their expiry
time, and a goroutine with a for/select loop wants to be woken up whenever the next item expires.
In this application, the timer needs to be rescheduled when an item is added or removed
from the heap. Using a timer naively, these updates will always require synchronization
with the global runtime timer datastructure to update the timer using Reset. Alarm avoids
this by tracking the next expiry time and only modifies the timer if it would need to fire earlier
than already scheduled.
As an example use, I have converted p2p.dialScheduler to use Alarm instead of AfterFunc.
It seems there is no fully typed library implementation of an LRU cache.
So I wrote one. Method names are the same as github.com/hashicorp/golang-lru,
and the new type can be used as a drop-in replacement.
Two reasons to do this:
- It's much easier to understand what a cache is for when the types are right there.
- Performance: the new implementation is slightly faster and performs zero memory
allocations in Add when the cache is at capacity. Overall, memory usage of the cache
is much reduced because keys are values are no longer wrapped in interface.
This fixes a problem in the SizeConstrainedLRU. The SCLRU uses an underlying simple lru which is not thread safe.
During the Get operation, the recentness of the accessed item is updated, so it is not a pure read-operation. Therefore, the mutex we need is a full mutex, not RLock.
This PR changes the mutex to be a regular Mutex, instead of RWMutex, so a reviewer can at a glance see that all affected locations are fixed.
Many of the other types have a function to convert the type to a big.Int,
but Address was missing this function.
It is useful to be able to turn an Address into a big.Int when doing
EVM-like computations natively in Go. Sometimes a Solidity address
type is casted to a uint256 and having a Big method on the Address
type makes this easy.

This changes the CI / release builds to use the latest Go version. It also
upgrades golangci-lint to a newer version compatible with Go 1.19.
In Go 1.19, godoc has gained official support for links and lists. The
syntax for code blocks in doc comments has changed and now requires a
leading tab character. gofmt adapts comments to the new syntax
automatically, so there are a lot of comment re-formatting changes in this
PR. We need to apply the new format in order to pass the CI lint stage with
Go 1.19.
With the linter upgrade, I have decided to disable 'gosec' - it produces
too many false-positive warnings. The 'deadcode' and 'varcheck' linters
have also been removed because golangci-lint warns about them being
unmaintained. 'unused' provides similar coverage and we already have it
enabled, so we don't lose much with this change.
