## Introduction
|
|
|
|
This document describes the extensions made to the Phase 0 design of The Beacon Chain to support data sharding,
|
|
based on the ideas [here](https://hackmd.io/G-Iy5jqyT7CXWEz8Ssos8g) and more broadly [here](https://arxiv.org/abs/1809.09044),
|
|
using KZG10 commitments to commit to data to remove any need for fraud proofs (and hence, safety-critical synchrony assumptions) in the design.
|
|
|
|
### Glossary
|
|
|
|
- **Data**: A list of KZG points, to translate a byte string into
|
|
- **Blob**: Data with commitments and meta-data, like a flattened bundle of L2 transactions.
|
|
- **Builder**: Independent actor that builds blobs and bids for proposal slots via fee-paying blob-headers, responsible for availability.
|
|
- **Shard proposer**: Validator taking bids from blob builders for shard data opportunity, co-signs with builder to propose the blob.
|
|
|
|
## Custom types

|
|
|
We define the following Python custom types for type hinting and readability:

|
|
|
|

## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Note: Some preset variables may become run-time configurable for testnets, but default to a preset while the spec is unstable.
|
|
E.g. `INITIAL_ACTIVE_SHARDS`, `MAX_SAMPLES_PER_BLOB` and `TARGET_SAMPLES_PER_BLOB`.
|
|
|
|
## Updated containers
|
|
|
|
The following containers have updated definitions to support Sharding.
|
|
|
|
### `AttestationData`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class AttestationData(Container):
|
|
slot: Slot
|
|
index: CommitteeIndex
|
|
# LMD GHOST vote
|
|
beacon_block_root: Root
|
|
# FFG vote
|
|
source: Checkpoint
|
|
target: Checkpoint
|
|
# Hash-tree-root of ShardBlob
|
|
shard_blob_root: Root # [New in Sharding]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `BeaconBlockBody`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class BeaconBlockBody(merge.BeaconBlockBody): # [extends The Merge block body]
|
|
shard_proposer_slashings: List[ShardProposerSlashing, MAX_SHARD_PROPOSER_SLASHINGS]
|
|
shard_headers: List[SignedShardBlobHeader, MAX_SHARDS * MAX_SHARD_HEADERS_PER_SHARD]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `BeaconState`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class BeaconState(merge.BeaconState):
|
|
# Blob builder registry.
|
|
blob_builders: List[Builder, BLOB_BUILDER_REGISTRY_LIMIT]
|
|
blob_builder_balances: List[Gwei, BLOB_BUILDER_REGISTRY_LIMIT]
|
|
# A ring buffer of the latest slots, with information per active shard.
|
|
shard_buffer: Vector[List[ShardWork, MAX_SHARDS], SHARD_STATE_MEMORY_SLOTS]
|
|
shard_sample_price: uint64
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## New containers
|
|
|
|
### `Builder`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class Builder(Container):
|
|
pubkey: BLSPubkey
|
|
# TODO: fields for either an expiry mechanism (refunding execution account with remaining balance)
|
|
# and/or a builder-transaction mechanism.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `DataCommitment`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class DataCommitment(Container):
|
|
# KZG10 commitment to the data
|
|
point: BLSCommitment
|
|
# Length of the data in samples
|
|
samples_count: uint64
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `AttestedDataCommitment`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class AttestedDataCommitment(Container):
|
|
# KZG10 commitment to the data, and length
|
|
commitment: DataCommitment
|
|
# hash_tree_root of the ShardBlobHeader (stored so that attestations can be checked against it)
|
|
root: Root
|
|
# The proposer who included the shard-header
|
|
includer_index: ValidatorIndex
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `ShardBlobBody`
|
|
|
|
Unsigned shard data, bundled by a shard-builder.
|
|
Unique, signing different bodies as shard proposer for the same `(slot, shard)` is slashable.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class ShardBlobBody(Container):
|
|
# The actual data commitment
|
|
commitment: DataCommitment
|
|
# Proof that the degree < commitment.samples_count * POINTS_PER_SAMPLE
|
|
degree_proof: BLSCommitment
|
|
# The actual data. Should match the commitment and degree proof.
|
|
data: List[BLSPoint, POINTS_PER_SAMPLE * MAX_SAMPLES_PER_BLOB]
|
|
# Latest block root of the Beacon Chain, before shard_blob.slot
|
|
beacon_block_root: Root
|
|
# fee payment fields (EIP 1559 like)
|
|
# TODO: express in MWei instead?
|
|
max_priority_fee_per_sample: Gwei
|
|
max_fee_per_sample: Gwei
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `ShardBlobBodySummary`
|
|
|
|
Summary version of the `ShardBlobBody`, omitting the data payload, while preserving the data-commitments.
|
|
|
|
The commitments are not further collapsed to a single hash,
|
|
to avoid an extra network roundtrip between proposer and builder, to include the header on-chain more quickly.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class ShardBlobBodySummary(Container):
|
|
# The actual data commitment
|
|
commitment: DataCommitment
|
|
# Proof that the degree < commitment.samples_count * POINTS_PER_SAMPLE
|
|
degree_proof: BLSCommitment
|
|
# Hash-tree-root as summary of the data field
|
|
data_root: Root
|
|
# Latest block root of the Beacon Chain, before shard_blob.slot
|
|
beacon_block_root: Root
|
|
# fee payment fields (EIP 1559 like)
|
|
# TODO: express in MWei instead?
|
|
max_priority_fee_per_sample: Gwei
|
|
max_fee_per_sample: Gwei
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `ShardBlob`
|
|
|
|
`ShardBlobBody` wrapped with the header data that is unique to the shard blob proposal.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class ShardBlob(Container):
|
|
slot: Slot
|
|
shard: Shard
|
|
# Builder of the data, pays data-fee to proposer
|
|
builder_index: BuilderIndex
|
|
# Proposer of the shard-blob
|
|
proposer_index: ValidatorIndex
|
|
# Blob contents
|
|
body: ShardBlobBody
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `ShardBlobHeader`
|
|
|
|
Header version of `ShardBlob`.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class ShardBlobHeader(Container):
|
|
slot: Slot
|
|
shard: Shard
|
|
# Builder of the data, pays data-fee to proposer
|
|
builder_index: BuilderIndex
|
|
# Proposer of the shard-blob
|
|
proposer_index: ValidatorIndex
|
|
# Blob contents, without the full data
|
|
body_summary: ShardBlobBodySummary
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `SignedShardBlob`
|
|
|
|
Full blob data, signed by the shard builder (ensuring fee payment) and shard proposer (ensuring a single proposal).
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class SignedShardBlob(Container):
|
|
message: ShardBlob
|
|
signature: BLSSignature
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `SignedShardBlobHeader`
|
|
|
|
Header of the blob, the signature is equally applicable to `SignedShardBlob`.
|
|
Shard proposers can accept `SignedShardBlobHeader` as a data-transaction by co-signing the header.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class SignedShardBlobHeader(Container):
|
|
message: ShardBlobHeader
|
|
# Signature by builder.
|
|
# Once accepted by proposer, the signatures is the aggregate of both.
|
|
signature: BLSSignature
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `PendingShardHeader`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class PendingShardHeader(Container):
|
|
# The commitment that is attested
|
|
attested: AttestedDataCommitment
|
|
# Who voted for the header
|
|
votes: Bitlist[MAX_VALIDATORS_PER_COMMITTEE]
|
|
# Sum of effective balances of votes
|
|
weight: Gwei
|
|
# When the header was last updated, as reference for weight accuracy
|
|
update_slot: Slot
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `ShardBlobReference`
|
|
|
|
Reference version of `ShardBlobHeader`, substituting the body for just a hash-tree-root.
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class ShardBlobReference(Container):
|
|
slot: Slot
|
|
shard: Shard
|
|
# Builder of the data
|
|
builder_index: BuilderIndex
|
|
# Proposer of the shard-blob
|
|
proposer_index: ValidatorIndex
|
|
# Blob hash-tree-root for slashing reference
|
|
body_root: Root
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `ShardProposerSlashing`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class ShardProposerSlashing(Container):
|
|
slot: Slot
|
|
shard: Shard
|
|
proposer_index: ValidatorIndex
|
|
builder_index_1: BuilderIndex
|
|
builder_index_2: BuilderIndex
|
|
body_root_1: Root
|
|
body_root_2: Root
|
|
signature_1: BLSSignature
|
|
signature_2: BLSSignature
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### `ShardWork`
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
class ShardWork(Container):
|
|
# Upon confirmation the data is reduced to just the commitment.
|
|
status: Union[ # See Shard Work Status enum
|
|
None, # SHARD_WORK_UNCONFIRMED
|
|
AttestedDataCommitment, # SHARD_WORK_CONFIRMED
|
|
List[PendingShardHeader, MAX_SHARD_HEADERS_PER_SHARD] # SHARD_WORK_PENDING
|
|
]
|

The degree proof works as follows. For a block `B` with length `l` (so `l` values in `[0...l - 1]`, seen as a polynomial `B(X)` which takes these values),
|
|
the length proof is the commitment to the polynomial `B(X) * X**(MAX_DEGREE + 1 - l)`,
|
|
where `MAX_DEGREE` is the maximum power of `s` available in the setup, which is `MAX_DEGREE = len(G2_SETUP) - 1`.
|
|
The goal is to ensure that a proof can only be constructed if `deg(B) < l` (there are not hidden higher-order terms in the polynomial, which would thwart reconstruction).
