We shouldn't use StoragePrice from Blockchain because its dao doesn't
contain the whole set of changes from previouse transactions in the
current block. Instead, we should use an updated storage price for
each transaction and retrieve the price from cached DAO.
The usage of the Blockchain's one leads to the same ExecFeeFactor within
a single block. What we need is to update ExecFeeFactor after each
transaction invocation, thus, cached DAO should be used as it contains
all relevant changes.
Most of the time we don't need locking on the higher-level stores and we drop
them after Persist, so that's what private MemCachedStore is for.
It doesn't improve things in any noticeable way, some ~1% can be observed in
neo-bench under various loads and even less than that in chain processing. But
it seems to be a bit better anyway (less allocations, less locks).
They're misleading now that we have variable number of committee
members/validators. The standby list can be seen in the configuration and the
appropriate numbers can be received from it also.
Oracle responses must use the same set of signers as oracle requests even
though the transaction itself is signed by oracle nodes/contract.
We can probably improve interop.Context by removing Tx field completely and
adding more functionality to Container, but it's not very convenient for
VerifyWitness and will require adding more stub-like methods for Block, so Tx
is used for now (and we do have it in every relevant case).
Functions are usually immediately replaced (and it's OK for them to be nil,
searching through an array with length of zero is fine), Notifications are
usually appended to (and are absolutely useless in verification contexts).
1. `System.Contract.CallNative` expects version on stack.
2. Actual method is determined based on current
instruction pointer.
3. Native hashes don't longer depend on NEF checksum.
We have additional logic for getting BaseExecFee policy value. This
logic should be moved to interop context instead of being in Policer,
because Policer is just an interface over Policy contract.
After moving this logic to interop context, we need to use it to define
BaseExecFee instead of (Policer).BaseExecFee. Thus, moving
(*Blockchain).GetPrice to (*Context).GetPrice is necessary.
Prices are defined in as a coefficients to `BaseExecFee` which
is defined by Policy contract (TBD later).
Native method prices are defined without need to multiply.
`interop.Contex.AddMethod` sets `Safe` flag for native
contracts. This allows not to forget to change manifest
when changing call flags.
Also fixed invalid `Safe` flags for `Notary` and `Designate` contracts.
This was done in https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/1693
for native calls. `OnPersist` script still uses `DROP` though
as value is pushed via `CheckReturn` logic for regular calls.
