e2store: add era format (#2382) Era files contain 8192 blocks and a state corresponding to the length of the array holding block roots in the state, meaning that each block is verifiable using the pubkeys and block roots from the state. Of course, one would need to know the root of the state as well, which is available in the first block of the _next_ file - or known from outside. This PR also adds an implementation to write e2s, e2i and era files, as well as a python script to inspect them. All in all, the format is very similar to what goes on in the network requests meaning it can trivially serve as a backing format for serving said requests. Mainnet, up to the first 671k slots, take up 3.5gb - in each era file, the BeaconState contributes about 9mb at current validator set sizes, up from ~3mb in the early blocks, for a grand total of ~558mb for the 82 eras tested - this overhead could potentially be calculated but one would lose the ability to verify individual blocks (eras could still be verified using historical roots). ``` -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 16 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000000-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 1,8M 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000000-00000001.e2s -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 65K 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000001-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 18M 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000001-00000001.e2s ... -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 65K 5 mar 11.52 ethereum2-mainnet-00000051-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 68M 5 mar 11.52 ethereum2-mainnet-00000051-00000001.e2s -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 61K 5 mar 11.11 ethereum2-mainnet-00000052-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 62M 5 mar 11.11 ethereum2-mainnet-00000052-00000001.e2s ```

era: load blocks and states (#3394) * era: load blocks and states Era files contain finalized history and can be thought of as an alternative source for block and state data that allows clients to avoid syncing this information from the P2P network - the P2P network is then used to "top up" the client with the most recent data. They can be freely shared in the community via whatever means (http, torrent, etc) and serve as a permanent cold store of consensus data (and, after the merge, execution data) for history buffs and bean counters alike. This PR gently introduces support for loading blocks and states in two cases: block requests from rest/p2p and frontfilling when doing checkpoint sync. The era files are used as a secondary source if the information is not found in the database - compared to the database, there are a few key differences: * the database stores the block indexed by block root while the era file indexes by slot - the former is used only in rest, while the latter is used both by p2p and rest. * when loading blocks from era files, the root is no longer trivially available - if it is needed, it must either be computed (slow) or cached (messy) - the good news is that for p2p requests, it is not needed * in era files, "framed" snappy encoding is used while in the database we store unframed snappy - for p2p2 requests, the latter requires recompression while the former could avoid it * front-filling is the process of using era files to replace backfilling - in theory this front-filling could happen from any block and front-fills with gaps could also be entertained, but our backfilling algorithm cannot take advantage of this because there's no (simple) way to tell it to "skip" a range. * front-filling, as implemented, is a bit slow (10s to load mainnet): we load the full BeaconState for every era to grab the roots of the blocks - it would be better to partially load the state - as such, it would also be good to be able to partially decompress snappy blobs * lookups from REST via root are served by first looking up a block summary in the database, then using the slot to load the block data from the era file - however, there needs to be an option to create the summary table from era files to fully support historical queries To test this, `ncli_db` has an era file exporter: the files it creates should be placed in an `era` folder next to `db` in the data directory. What's interesting in particular about this setup is that `db` remains as the source of truth for security purposes - it stores the latest synced head root which in turn determines where a node "starts" its consensus participation - the era directory however can be freely shared between nodes / people without any (significant) security implications, assuming the era files are consistent / not broken. There's lots of future improvements to be had: * we can drop the in-memory `BlockRef` index almost entirely - at this point, resident memory usage of Nimbus should drop to a cool 500-600 mb * we could serve era files via REST trivially: this would drop backfill times to whatever time it takes to download the files - unlike the current implementation that downloads block by block, downloading an era at a time almost entirely cuts out request overhead * we can "reasonably" recreate detailed state history from almost any point in time, turning an O(slot) process into O(1) effectively - we'll still need caches and indices to do this with sufficient efficiency for the rest api, but at least it cuts the whole process down to minutes instead of hours, for arbitrary points in time * CI: ignore failures with Nim-1.6 (temporary) * test fixes Co-authored-by: Ștefan Talpalaru <stefantalpalaru@yahoo.com>

disentangle eth2 types from the ssz library (#2785) * reorganize ssz dependencies This PR continues the work in https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2646, https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2779 as well as past issues with serialization and type, to disentangle SSZ from eth2 and at the same time simplify imports and exports with a structured approach. The principal idea here is that when a library wants to introduce SSZ support, they do so via 3 files: * `ssz_codecs` which imports and reexports `codecs` - this covers the basic byte conversions and ensures no overloads get lost * `xxx_merkleization` imports and exports `merkleization` to specialize and get access to `hash_tree_root` and friends * `xxx_ssz_serialization` imports and exports `ssz_serialization` to specialize ssz for a specific library Those that need to interact with SSZ always import the `xxx_` versions of the modules and never `ssz` itself so as to keep imports simple and safe. This is similar to how the REST / JSON-RPC serializers are structured in that someone wanting to serialize spec types to REST-JSON will import `eth2_rest_serialization` and nothing else. * split up ssz into a core library that is independendent of eth2 types * rename `bytes_reader` to `codec` to highlight that it contains coding and decoding of bytes and native ssz types * remove tricky List init overload that causes compile issues * get rid of top-level ssz import * reenable merkleization tests * move some "standard" json serializers to spec * remove `ValidatorIndex` serialization for now * remove test_ssz_merkleization * add tests for over/underlong byte sequences * fix broken seq[byte] test - seq[byte] is not an SSZ type There are a few things this PR doesn't solve: * like #2646 this PR is weak on how to handle root and other dontSerialize fields that "sometimes" should be computed - the same problem appears in REST / JSON-RPC etc * Fix a build problem on macOS * Another way to fix the macOS builds Co-authored-by: Zahary Karadjov <zahary@gmail.com>

The era files are used as a secondary source if the information is not found in the database - compared to the database, there are a few key differences: * the database stores the block indexed by block root while the era file indexes by slot - the former is used only in rest, while the latter is used both by p2p and rest. * when loading blocks from era files, the root is no longer trivially available - if it is needed, it must either be computed (slow) or cached (messy) - the good news is that for p2p requests, it is not needed * in era files, "framed" snappy encoding is used while in the database we store unframed snappy - for p2p2 requests, the latter requires recompression while the former could avoid it * front-filling is the process of using era files to replace backfilling - in theory this front-filling could happen from any block and front-fills with gaps could also be entertained, but our backfilling algorithm cannot take advantage of this because there's no (simple) way to tell it to "skip" a range. * front-filling, as implemented, is a bit slow (10s to load mainnet): we load the full BeaconState for every era to grab the roots of the blocks - it would be better to partially load the state - as such, it would also be good to be able to partially decompress snappy blobs * lookups from REST via root are served by first looking up a block summary in the database, then using the slot to load the block data from the era file - however, there needs to be an option to create the summary table from era files to fully support historical queries To test this, `ncli_db` has an era file exporter: the files it creates should be placed in an `era` folder next to `db` in the data directory. What's interesting in particular about this setup is that `db` remains as the source of truth for security purposes - it stores the latest synced head root which in turn determines where a node "starts" its consensus participation - the era directory however can be freely shared between nodes / people without any (significant) security implications, assuming the era files are consistent / not broken. There's lots of future improvements to be had: * we can drop the in-memory `BlockRef` index almost entirely - at this point, resident memory usage of Nimbus should drop to a cool 500-600 mb * we could serve era files via REST trivially: this would drop backfill times to whatever time it takes to download the files - unlike the current implementation that downloads block by block, downloading an era at a time almost entirely cuts out request overhead * we can "reasonably" recreate detailed state history from almost any point in time, turning an O(slot) process into O(1) effectively - we'll still need caches and indices to do this with sufficient efficiency for the rest api, but at least it cuts the whole process down to minutes instead of hours, for arbitrary points in time * CI: ignore failures with Nim-1.6 (temporary) * test fixes Co-authored-by: Ștefan Talpalaru <stefantalpalaru@yahoo.com>

e2store: add era format (#2382) Era files contain 8192 blocks and a state corresponding to the length of the array holding block roots in the state, meaning that each block is verifiable using the pubkeys and block roots from the state. Of course, one would need to know the root of the state as well, which is available in the first block of the _next_ file - or known from outside. This PR also adds an implementation to write e2s, e2i and era files, as well as a python script to inspect them. All in all, the format is very similar to what goes on in the network requests meaning it can trivially serve as a backing format for serving said requests. Mainnet, up to the first 671k slots, take up 3.5gb - in each era file, the BeaconState contributes about 9mb at current validator set sizes, up from ~3mb in the early blocks, for a grand total of ~558mb for the 82 eras tested - this overhead could potentially be calculated but one would lose the ability to verify individual blocks (eras could still be verified using historical roots). ``` -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 16 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000000-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 1,8M 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000000-00000001.e2s -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 65K 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000001-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 18M 5 mar 11.47 ethereum2-mainnet-00000001-00000001.e2s ... -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 65K 5 mar 11.52 ethereum2-mainnet-00000051-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 68M 5 mar 11.52 ethereum2-mainnet-00000051-00000001.e2s -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 61K 5 mar 11.11 ethereum2-mainnet-00000052-00000001.e2i -rw-rw-r--. 1 arnetheduck arnetheduck 62M 5 mar 11.11 ethereum2-mainnet-00000052-00000001.e2s ```
