## Introduction
|
|
|
|
This document is the beacon chain fork choice spec for part of Ethereum 2.0 Phase 1.
|
|
|
|
## Fork choice
|
|
|
|
Due to the changes in the structure of `IndexedAttestation` in Phase 1, `on_attestation` must be re-specified to handle this. The bulk of `on_attestation` has been moved out into a few helpers to reduce code duplication where possible.
|
|
|
|
The rest of the fork choice remains stable.
|
|
|
|
### Handlers
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
def on_attestation(store: Store, attestation: Attestation) -> None:
|
|
"""
|
|
Run ``on_attestation`` upon receiving a new ``attestation`` from either within a block or directly on the wire.
|
|
|
|
An ``attestation`` that is asserted as invalid may be valid at a later time,
|
|
consider scheduling it for later processing in such case.
|
|
"""
|
|
validate_on_attestation(store, attestation)
|
|
store_target_checkpoint_state(store, attestation.data.target)
|
|
|
|
# Get state at the `target` to fully validate attestation
|
|
target_state = store.checkpoint_states[attestation.data.target]
|
|
indexed_attestation = get_indexed_attestation(target_state, attestation)
|
|
assert is_valid_indexed_attestation(target_state, indexed_attestation)
|
|
|
|
# Update latest messages for attesting indices
|
|
attesting_indices = [
|
|
index for i, index in enumerate(indexed_attestation.committee)
|
|
if attestation.aggregation_bits[i]
|
|
]
|
|
update_latest_messages(store, attesting_indices, attestation)
|
|
``` |
