type level_proof = {

hash : Sc_rollup_inbox_merkelized_payload_hashes_repr.Hash.t;
level : Raw_level_repr.t;

}

type history_proof = (level_proof, Hash.t) Skip_list.cell

A history_proof is a Skip_list.cell that stores multiple hashes. Skip_list.content history_proof gives the hash of this cell, while Skip_list.back_pointers history_proof is an array of hashes of earlier history_proofs in the inbox.

On the one hand, we think of this type as representing the whole Merkle structure of an inbox at a given level---it is the part of t above that can actually be used to prove things (it cannot be forged by a malicious node because it much match the hash stored by the L1).

On the other hand, we think of this type as representing a single proof-step back through the history of the inbox; given a hash that appears at some point later in the inbox this type proves that that hash points to this particular combination of a witness and further back-pointers.

In terms of size, this type is a small set of hashes; one for the current witness and `O(log2(ix))` in the back-pointers, where ix is the index of the cell in the skip list. That is, ix is the number of non-empty levels between now and the origination level of the rollup.

type t = {

level : Raw_level_repr.t;
old_levels_messages : history_proof;

}

The type of the inbox for a smart-contract rollup as stored by the protocol in the context. Values that inhabit this type only act as fingerprint for inboxes and contain:

level : the inbox level ;
old_levels_messages : a witness of the inbox history.

val pp : Tezos_protocol_environment_alpha.Format.formatter -> t -> unit

val equal : t -> t -> bool

val hash : t -> Hash.t

val encoding : t Tezos_protocol_environment_alpha.Data_encoding.t

val inbox_level : t -> Raw_level_repr.t

inbox_level inbox returns the maximum level of message insertion in inbox or its initial level.

module History : 
  Bounded_history_repr.S with type key = Hash.t and type value = history_proof

A History.t is basically a lookup table of history_proofs. We need this if we want to produce inbox proofs because it allows us to dereference the 'pointer' hashes in any of the history_proofs. This deref function is passed to Skip_list.back_path or Skip_list.search to allow these functions to construct valid paths back through the skip list.

val pp_history_proof : 
  Tezos_protocol_environment_alpha.Format.formatter ->
  history_proof ->
  unit

val history_proof_encoding : 
  history_proof Tezos_protocol_environment_alpha.Data_encoding.t

val equal_history_proof : history_proof -> history_proof -> bool

val old_levels_messages : t -> history_proof

old_levels_messages inbox returns the latest skip list cell of the inbox history that is not up to change (i.e. not the current witness).

val current_witness : 
  t ->
  Sc_rollup_inbox_merkelized_payload_hashes_repr.Hash.t

current_witness inbox returns the current witness of the inbox, i.e. the merkelized payload hash.
