- Extend the `Flattenable` trait to include a `size` method that returns the number of `Target`s the type requires. This is used in the table to figure out the max length of an array that must fit all entry types.
- Move the circuit methods to precalculate hash states and do hashes started from a precomputed state to a new module
- Introduce `MuxTableTarget` which allows easy multiplexing of tables where each sub-table may have entries of different lengths. The table access is done via hashing + unhashing automatically (via use of a generator)
- Use the `MuxTableTarget` to access merkle tree claims and custom predicate verification, which where previously in different tables and accessed with independent random accesses each
- Move the public key derivation for the PublicKeyOf operation check to the same multiplexed table. Now we can choose how many of those operations a circuit supports.

Resolve https://github.com/0xPARC/pod2/issues/361
Support arrays up to 256 elements (hardcoded maximum just to avoid abuse) by combining multiple random_accesses.
The index is now split into low and high parts. It's a bit more inconvenient than using a single Target but this allows avoiding bit decomposition.
Add the missing gates and generator in the serializer that were added
with the PublicKeyOf operation.
Add a test for CircuitData serialization+deserialization to avoid these
kind of bugs in the future.

Skip the circuits that verify operation checks other than None, Copy or

statements are created by copying private statements, so we never use
the other operation checks in those slots.

- Bump rust version to `nightly-2025-07-02` because some of the nightly features we were using have been stabilized.
- Introduce feature `disk_cache` which enables caching to disk. Each time an artifact is retrieved from the cache it will be read and deserialized. On a cache miss the artifact will be created, serialized and stored to disk.
- Introduce feature `mem_cache` which enables caching to memory. All cached artifacts are kept in memory after they are created. The mem cache implementation avoids cloning of artifacts by extending their lifetime to `'static`. This is `unsafe` code, but I argue that this usage is safe.
- Add a `build.rs`
- When the feature `disk_cache` is enabled, the `build.rs` will inject env variables to the process with the git commit information, which is used to index the cached artifacts
- Replace all previous cached artifacts from `LazyStatic` methods that call the cache API
- Derive `Serialize, Deserialize` for all `*Target` types so that they can be serialized for caching to disk
- Add finer level of caching: now we cache the `CircuitData` and `VerifierData` independently. The reason for this is that `CircuitData` is a very big artifact which is not needed for verification. So by only accessing `VerifierData` in verification we don't pay a big overhead for reading from disk and deserializing
- Add missing artifacts to the cache: like the `CircuitData` for the `MainPod` indexed by `Params`
- Add helper types to serialize and deserialize `CircuitData`, `CommonData` and `VerifierData` with the set of gates and generators used in the recursive MainPod circuit
- Tweak the ids of our custom gates so that they remain unique when their generic parameters change
- Bugfix: several tests were using the standard `vd_set` but were using MainPod circuits with non-default parameters. This was working before because there was a bug: the MainPod circuit was reporting that the used verifier data was the standard one instead of picking the one corresponding to it's own Params.
Summary of breaking changes:
- One and only one of the features `mem_cache` or `disk_cache` need to be enabled. By default it's `mem_cache`
- To enable the `disk_cache` you need to disable the default features like this: `--no-default-features --features=backend_plonky2,zk,disk_cache`
- Removed `DEFAULT_PARAMS`, instead use `Params::default()`
- Removed `STANDARD_REC_MAIN_POD_CIRCUIT_DATA`, instead use `cache_get_standard_rec_main_pod_common_circuit_data`
- The library is now using `nightly-2025-07-02`. Some rust language features are unstable in previous versions.
* implement merkletree insert & insert-proof-verification
* add merkletree circuit to verify insertion proof
wip
* fix merkletree's GraphViz generation for cases with empty siblings
* implement tree insert-verif circuit siblings checks
Note: I've implemented also an alternative version which instead of
inputting a witness value 'divergence_level' it inputs a bitmask. Both
approaches (divergence_level and divergence_bitmask) take the same
amount of constraints (336 constraints for a tree of 32 levels, and for
an hybrid approach it takes 331 constraints but the code gets a bit less
readable). So I've kept with the current implementation (using
divergence_level) which is more easy to follow.
* [tree] modify the strategy for the insert-proof (out-circuit)
* re-implement insert-proof verification circuit
* add pending checks and polish
* add tests for disabled(&enabled) cases that should fail
* update typos.toml config
* Add test with tampering
* add check 5.3, to prevent tampering (at insertion proof circuit)
* move old_leaf_hash computation outside the loop, simplify check 5.3 booleans
* apply @ed255 review suggestions

In this commit I remove all `*Gadget` types and instead implement the naming convention defined here https://github.com/0xPARC/pod2/issues/181#issuecomment-3051954321
The biggest changes can be summarized by:
- a) Removal of `*Gadget` types and their `eval_*` methods in favour of `verb_object_circuit` functions.
- b) The above functions don't create targets that need to be witness-assigned later. Instead they receive those as arguments. This clearly shows what's the circuit input and output.
I'm specially happy about the changes from b), I think they make the flow of data in the circuit more clear.
Missing things that I did not address in this PR
- The RecursiveCircuit still uses some old naming conventions like `build`.
- We have some `*Target` types that have methods that define constraints. I think we can keep those as they are convenient and I don't see them as strongly breaking the new convention: I see them as the object-oriented way to apply the convention. In those cases the `object` can be omitted from the method when it's implied by the type name, and the `_circuit` suffix doesn't appear because it's implied by the fact that the type is a `*Target`. Examples are: `SignatureTarget::verify -> BoolTarget`, `StatementTarget::has_native_type -> BoolTarget` or `OperationTypeTarget::as_custom -> (BoolTarget, HashOutTarget, Target)`.
The PodSigner trait was taking `&mut self` in the `sign` method, but the
signer doesn't need mutation in the Shcnorr implementation. Remove the
`mut`.
Previously the PodProver trait was also taking `&mut self` in the
`prove` method, and we had many tests creating a `mut Prover/mut
MockProver`. Remove all those `mut`.
Breaking change: `PodSigner` trait method `sign` replaces `&mut self` by
`&self`
* change Hash (and RawValue) hex-string representation to show the least-significant field element as big-endian hex string
The motivation is that since some commits ago, the hex representation
was changed from little-endian to big-endian, and when cropping the long
strings of hex (hex representation of byte-arrays), the small values
(224 bits or less) were being represented by `0x00000000...`, which is
indistinguishable from the `0` value.
This commit updates this cropped representation to print the last
characters of the string (the less signifcant bytes of the big-endian
representation), so that for example for the integer `5` the
representation would be `0x...00000005`.
- serialize the signer in base58 both as Value and as the signer embedded
in the SignedPod json data field.
- Implement serialization/deserialization for Signature
* add zk config, enabled by a feature (on by default)
* Update src/backends/plonky2/recursion/circuit.rs

The examples show:
- Building a Signed Pod with different types of values
- Building a MainPod
- Input SignedPod to MainPod
- Input MainPod to MainPod
- Using MainPod or MockMainPod
- Using custom predicates
- Update the `RecursivePod` trait to return `vd_set` instead of `vds_root`
- A native verifier requires the entire set to reason about the circuits that have been used in the recursive tree
- Implement serialization/deserialization for `VDSet`
- Remove `DynError` and use `BackendError` instead for middleware functions that wrap or define trait functions implemented in the backend. This is based on the fact that we will only have a single backend enabled at a time, so there's no need for a `dyn Error`
- Move the implementations of `_verify` functions to `verify` and similarly for `_prove`
- Complete the verification of a MockMainPod: the verification of input pods was missing. The inclusion of these input pods in the serialization was also missing. With this change a `MockMainPod` will grow after each recursion. This was expected from the design but was not the case because of the missing recursive native verification implementation.
* apply feedback from @arnaucube
This PR is a continuation of the work done in #276
- Fix PodType in MainPod (we were using `MockMain` instead of `Main`)
- Update anchored keys in statement template arguments to only support wildcards in the origin and literal keys as the key.
- Update the pest grammar accordingly
- Update the parser accordingly
- Rewrite the eth_dos example in a recursive manner so that we use one recursive pod for every distance increment of 1.
- I've also used the podlang to define the eth_dos custom predicates. Currently all predicates are in a single batch (previously `eth_friend` was in a different batch). With #286 we could define `eth_friend` in a different batch again.
- I was feeling a bit creative and used a format macro to pass `Value`s from rust to the podlang code.
- The eth_dos is now written using literals. This resolves https://github.com/0xPARC/pod2/issues/255
- Remove `StatementArg::WildcardValue` in favor of `StatementArg::Literal`. The `WildcardValue` was just a way to have some kind of typing for values that would be used as arguments in custom predicates. Now that we can have literals in any statement this value can be anything, so I just removed the `WildcardValue` and use `Literal` instead. On the backend it was already the case that both cases were treated the same way (after all, `WildcardValue` and `Literal` were 4 fields in the backend).
- Added a new type for Value: `PodId` so that we can use it for custom predicates that take a pod id to be used in a wildcard
- Add a mock vd_set that is empty for tests that don't use plonky2; this allows running those tests individually without paying for the expensive work of calculating the vd for various circuits.
- rename StatementTmplArg::WildcardValue to StatementTmplArg::Wildcard
