tracker(benchmark): Porting extra benchmark tests

[LouisTsai-Csie]

Summary

Porting additional test cases for benchmark.

Test Cases

• AccessList 2930: EIP-2930 introduces a new tx type which has a bunch of cornercases - test: add max block size test using access lists execution-spec-tests#1932
• Branch prediction: Tests that try to attack the CPU’s branch prediction
• Additional create/create2 operation: -
  • Create + Selfdestruct loops
  • Create(Create(Create(…)))
  • Creation by Selfdestruct reads contract + balance
  • Call + Selfdestruct touches two accounts
• DeriveSHA: Root computation for TxRoot, Requests etc
• Journaling attacks: Clients use journaling to be able to revert operations
• Prefetching/Parallelization attacks: Trick parallelization techniques
• Receipt Size: Receipts might go over the 10MB limit per network package
• Refund bombs: How much more gas can a block have with max refunds?
• Request Benchmarks: Prague introduced Requests for Consolidations, Withdrawals and Deposits
• State growth: With increasing gas limit, the state growth per block will increase
• State root computation: The more changes we accumulate per block, the costlier it is to compute the stateroot
• Trie Degeneration: Attacks like Trie Node Splitting to increase the depth/breath of the trie

Hey @LouisTsai-Csie !

Wondering if there are any details on State Growth point. In BloatNet project we're working on obtaining all these, and then coding them with EELS so that we can benchmark them later.

Any way we can collab to avoid duplicating work?

Hi @CPerezz, We are currently working on a place to coordinate the discussion. please see this issue.

One interesting state scenario for besu is a case with a lot of reads of non existing values. This is because it needs to go through the different layers looking for the key to end up with no existing value.
There is also an existing issue in RocksDB, the database implementation we're using in besu : facebook/rocksdb#13049 (comment)
