* add floodPublish test
* test delivery via control Iwant/have mechanics
* fix issues in control, and add testing
* fix possible backoff issue with pruned routine overriding it
In `async` functions, a closure environment is created for variables
that cross an await boundary - this closure environment is kept in
memory for the lifetime of the associated future - this means that
although _some_ variables are no longer used, they still take up memory
for a long time.
In Nimbus, message validation is processed in batches meaning the future
of an incoming gossip message stays around for quite a while - this
leads to memory consumption peaks of 100-200 mb when there are many
attestations in the pipeline.
To avoid excessive memory usage, it's generally better to move non-async
code into proc's such that the variables therein can be released earlier
- this includes the many hidden variables introduced by macro and
template expansion (ie chronicles that does expensive exception
handling)
* move seen table salt to floodsub, use there as well
* shorten seen table salt to size of hash
* avoid unnecessary memory allocations and copies in a few places
* factor out message scoring
* avoid reencoding outgoing message for every peer
* keep checking validators until reject (in case there's both reject and
ignore)
* `readOnce` avoids `readExactly` overhead for single-byte read
* genericAssign -> assign2
* Refactor gossipsub into multiple modules
* splitup further gossipsub
* move more mesh related stuff to behavior
* fix internal tests
* fix PubSubPeer.outbound flag, make it more reliable
* use discard rather then _
* Remove unused connections in pubsubpeer, also removed wrong usages, add a disconnect bad peers parameter
* handle exceptions in disconnectPeer
* small fix
* use the proper disconnection procedure for gossip peers
* fixes, more metrics add test about disconnection
* hot fix possible null pointers in switch
* silly isnil sugar
* Fix and test gossip directPeer connections
* salt ids in seen table
* add subscription validation callback and avoid processing topics we don't care of
* apply penalty on bad subscription
* fix IHave handling IDs
* reduce indenting, add some comments
* fix gossip randombytes generation
* do not descore unwanted topics (might happen, due to timing, needs improvements)
* cleaning up and added tests
* validate subscriptions only when subscribing
* set notice level for failed publish
* fix floodsub behavior
* add more traces, remove async from rebalance
* more traces
* avoid computng scores when weight is 0.0
* debug colocation, fix an indent in unsubpeer (minor)
* add full ValidationResult coverage
* store in cache only after validation
* gossip 1.0 fixes
* fix typo
* gossip 10 internal test fixes
* test fixing
* refactor peerstats usages
* populate tables if missing when scoring
* move gossip parameters to runtime
* internal test fixes
* add missing params
* restore const parameters are soldi base and use them in init
* more constants tuning
To break a potential read/write deadlock, gossipsub uses an unbounded
queue for writes - when peers are too slow to process this queue, it may
end up growing without bounds causing high memory usage.
Here, we introduce a maximum write queue length after which the peer is
disconnected - the queue is generous enough that any "normal" usage
should be fine - writes that are `await`:ed are not affected, only
writes that are launched in an `asyncSpawn` task or similar.
* avoid unnecessary copy of message when there are no send observers
* release message memory earlier in gossipsub
* simplify pubsubpeer logging
When messages can't be sent to peer, we try to establish a send
connection - this causes messages to stack up as more and more unsent
messages are blocked on the dial lock.
* remove dial lock
* run reconnection loop in background task
* mcache fixes
* remove timed cache - the window shifting already removes old messages
* ref -> object
* avoid unnecessary allocations with `[]` operator
* simplify init
* fix several gossipsub/floodsub issues
* floodsub, gossipsub: don't rebroadcast messages that fail validation
(!)
* floodsub, gossipsub: don't crash when unsubscribing from unknown
topics (!)
* gossipsub: don't send message to peers that are not interested in the
topic, when messages don't share topic list
* floodsub: don't repeat all messages for each message when
rebroadcasting
* floodsub: allow sending empty data
* floodsub: fix inefficient unsubscribe
* sync floodsub/gossipsub logging
* gossipsub: include incoming messages in mcache (!)
* gossipsub: don't rebroadcast already-seen messages (!)
* pubsubpeer: remove incoming/outgoing seen caches - these are already
handled in gossipsub, floodsub and will cause trouble when peers try to
resubscribe / regraft topics (because control messages will have same
digest)
* timedcache: reimplement without timers (fixes timer leaks and extreme
inefficiency due to per-message closures, futures etc)
* timedcache: ref -> obj
