Part of #8665. Stacked on #8673 (T2).

Problem

Bootstrapping a storehouse (payloadless) register store requires indexing registers from the root block to the latest height, which takes days on a long-running execution node. ImportRegistersFromCheckpoint can seed the storehouse from a single-trie checkpoint, and compact-execution-state produces exactly that — a checkpoint at the last sealed and executed block. However, the EN's own startup import is hardwired to root.checkpoint at the sealed root height, so there was no way to seed the register store from the compacted checkpoint.

Changes

New util import-compact-execution-state-to-storehouse (cmd/util/cmd/import-compact-execution-state-to-storehouse), registered in cmd/util/cmd/root.go.

It requires the EN to be stopped and the execution state to be in the Compacted Sealed State, then:

  1. Resolves the last finalized and executed block and its state commitment C, mirroring ExecutionState.GetHighestFinalizedExecuted: the executed-block pointer capped by the finalized head, with the commit read from the commits store.
  2. Verifies the highest-numbered checkpoint in --execution-state-dir is a compacted single-trie checkpoint whose root hash equals C (wal.CheckpointHasSingleRootHash).
  3. Verifies --register-dir does not exist or is empty, and that the register store has not been bootstrapped.
  4. Imports the checkpoint registers with 16 workers via bootstrap.ImportRegistersFromCheckpoint, which sets the register store's first and latest heights to the resolved height.

After that the node starts with storehouse enabled, skips its own root-checkpoint import, and resumes execution at height + 1, indexing forward only.

Verification

  • go build ./cmd/util/cmd/..., go vet, gofmt clean.
  • Smoke test: built cmd/util and ran import-compact-execution-state-to-storehouse --help.
  • End-to-end import needs a real Compacted Sealed State, protocol DB and empty register store, so it was not run here.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds a utility command that imports registers from a validated compacted execution-state checkpoint. It resolves the last finalized and executed block, checks the checkpoint commitment, requires an empty register store, imports registers, and registers the command with the utility CLI.

Changes

Compact execution state import

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolve finalized and executed block
cmd/util/cmd/common/execution_state.go
Adds GetLastFinalizedAndExecutedBlock, which returns the capped block height, block ID, and state commitment.
Validate and import checkpoint
cmd/util/cmd/import-compact-execution-state-to-storehouse/cmd.go
Adds command flags and validates the checkpoint type and root hash. It requires an empty register store, imports checkpoint registers with the configured worker count, and sets the store heights.
Register utility command
cmd/util/cmd/root.go
Imports and registers the new command as a root utility subcommand.

The import utility can report a successful bootstrap even when the register database reports a shutdown error. Propagate that error before merging so operators can detect and recover from a failed command run.

nit: the EN performs the same import with the configurable --import-checkpoint-worker-count flag (default 10, cmd/execution_config.go:145). Hardcoding 16 diverges without explanation and gives operators no way to tune it.

nit: this re-implements the non-storehouse path of state.GetHighestFinalizedExecuted (engine/execution/state/state.go:549). Consider extracting a shared helper into cmd/util/cmd/common so a future fix to the anchor semantics cannot miss one of the copies.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Return the Pebble close error.

runE logs and discards an error from *pebble/v2.DB.Close, then returns success. The import batches and final height marker already use pebble.Sync, so a close error does not by itself prove that the imported data is incomplete or undurable. It still indicates that Pebble reported a shutdown error, which the command must propagate.

Use a named return value and join the close error with any earlier error. This follows the repository error-handling convention.

Proposed fix
-func runE(*cobra.Command, []string) error {
+func runE(*cobra.Command, []string) (retErr error) {
...
 	defer func() {
 		if closeErr := pebbleDB.Close(); closeErr != nil {
-			log.Error().Err(closeErr).Msg("cannot close register store db")
+			retErr = errors.Join(retErr, closeErr)
 		}
 	}()
