This PR provides the infrastructure for the pov-reclaim mechanism discussed in #209. The goal is to provide the current proof size to the runtime so it can be used to reclaim storage weight. ## New Host Function - A new host function is provided [here](https://github.com/skunert/polkadot-sdk/blob/5b317fda3be205f4136f10d4490387ccd4f9765d/cumulus/primitives/pov-reclaim/src/lib.rs#L23). It returns the size of the current proof size to the runtime. If recording is not enabled, it returns 0. ## Implementation Overview - Implement option to enable proof recording during import in the client. This is currently enabled for `polkadot-parachain`, `parachain-template` and the cumulus test node. - Make the proof recorder ready for no-std. It was previously only enabled for std environments, but we need to record the proof size in `validate_block` too. - Provide a recorder implementation that only the records the size of incoming nodes and does not store the nodes itself. - Fix benchmarks that were broken by async backing changes - Provide new externalities extension that is registered by default if proof recording is enabled. - I think we should discuss the naming, pov-reclaim was more intuitive to me, but we could also go with clawback like in the issue. ## Impact of proof recording during import With proof recording: 6.3058 Kelem/s Without proof recording: 6.3427 Kelem/s The measured impact on the importing performance is quite low on my machine using the block import benchmark. With proof recording I am seeing a performance hit of 0.585%. --------- Co-authored-by: command-bot <> Co-authored-by: Davide Galassi <davxy@datawok.net> Co-authored-by: Bastian Köcher <git@kchr.de>
NOTE: We have recently made significant changes to our repository structure. In order to streamline our development process and foster better contributions, we have merged three separate repositories Cumulus, Substrate and Polkadot into this repository. Read more about the changes here.
Polkadot SDK
The Polkadot SDK repository provides all the resources needed to start building on the Polkadot network, a multi-chain blockchain platform that enables different blockchains to interoperate and share information in a secure and scalable way. The Polkadot SDK comprises three main pieces of software:
Polkadot
Implementation of a node for the https://polkadot.network in Rust, using the Substrate framework. This directory
currently contains runtimes for the Polkadot, Kusama, Westend, and Rococo networks. In the future, these will be
relocated to the runtimes repository.
Substrate
Substrate is the primary blockchain SDK used by developers to create the parachains that make up the Polkadot network. Additionally, it allows for the development of self-sovereign blockchains that operate completely independently of Polkadot.
Cumulus
Cumulus is a set of tools for writing Substrate-based Polkadot parachains.
