Whisk (SSLE) with Curdleproofs - rebased (#3342)
* Introduce consensus code for Whisk

* polish, simplify, clean up (~100 fewer lines)

@asn-d6: As discussed, I fixed a few bugs along the way but likely also introduced some bugs :)

* minor cleanups and fixes

* simplify is_k_commitment_unique

* Update beacon-chain.md

* Update beacon-chain.md

* Initialize `k` in `get_validator_from_deposit()`

* minor cleanups

* Update beacon-chain.md

* Create beacon-chain.md

This PR changes the Whisk tracker format to be of the form `(r * pubkey, r * BLS_GT_GENERATOR)` instead of `(r * k * BLS_G1_GENERATOR, r * BLS_G1_GENERATOR)`. This allows for non-interactive tracker registrations from validator pubkeys, removing ~50 lines the code. It also significantly reduces the amount of state overhead. This PR also removes permutation commitments, though those can be easily readded if deemed necessary.

* A couple of fixes to the no-registration simplification

@asn-d6: Readded a consistency check for `IsValidWhiskOpeningProof` (involving `pubkey` instead of `k_commitment`).

* remove unused helpers

* use Mary's suggested tracker

* Update beacon-chain.md

* Revert G_t element optimization

This needs its own ethresearch post, and some additional analysis to see if we can do the shuffle ZKP in the allowed
timeframe.

This reverts commit 8517acabfc1dbb1a35789e6170b5db0bb2c19c9a.

* Implement new shuffling strategy

Ditch the Feistel logic and instead have each shuffler pick the row they shuffle using their RANDAO reveal.

* Curdleproofs edits

* working whisk eth2spec

* working whisk dummy test

* add more boilerplate set up code

* rebase constants

* Implement even newer and simplified shuffling strategy

This commit further simplifies 0faef30fc131d1b471b63a7f16772eeeef548ef8 by removing the entire squareshuffle.

The latest version of https://eprint.iacr.org/2022/560 proposes that each shuffler picks random indices from the entire
candidate set instead of organizing validators into a square.

* Move to _features

* remove dummy test

* Run doctoc

* Change Whisk's previous fork to Capella instead of Bellatrix. Make linter happier.

* Fix lint

* Fix pylint

* Fix mypy issues

* Clean-up get_beacon_proposer_index

* Fix doc headers

* Fix capella link

* Update apply_deposit

* Rename process_shuffled_trackers

Ethereum Proof-of-Stake Consensus Specifications

Join the chat at https://discord.gg/qGpsxSA

To learn more about proof-of-stake and sharding, see the PoS documentation, sharding documentation and the research compendium.

This repository hosts the current Ethereum proof-of-stake specifications. Discussions about design rationale and proposed changes can be brought up and discussed as issues. Solidified, agreed-upon changes to the spec can be made through pull requests.

Specs

GitHub release PyPI version

Core specifications for Ethereum proof-of-stake clients can be found in specs. These are divided into features. Features are researched and developed in parallel, and then consolidated into sequential upgrades when ready.

Stable Specifications

Design goals

The following are the broad design goals for the Ethereum proof-of-stake consensus specifications:

  • to minimize complexity, even at the cost of some losses in efficiency
  • to remain live through major network partitions and when very large portions of nodes go offline
  • to select all components such that they are either quantum secure or can be easily swapped out for quantum secure counterparts when available
  • to utilize crypto and design techniques that allow for a large participation of validators in total and per unit time
  • to allow for a typical consumer laptop with O(C) resources to process/validate O(1) shards (including any system level validation such as the beacon chain)

Useful external resources
