From 4207b127f925e49f7e1e9cd0d4bb18790440ca78 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jacek Sieka Date: Wed, 23 Mar 2022 09:58:17 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] era: load blocks and states (#3394) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit * 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 --- .github/workflows/ci.yml | 21 +- beacon_chain/beacon_chain_db.nim | 2 +- beacon_chain/conf.nim | 4 + .../block_clearance.nim | 11 +- .../block_pools_types.nim | 20 +- .../consensus_object_pools/blockchain_dag.nim | 118 ++++++- beacon_chain/era_db.nim | 290 ++++++++++++++++++ beacon_chain/fork_choice/fork_choice.nim | 2 + beacon_chain/nimbus_beacon_node.nim | 9 +- beacon_chain/spec/beacon_time.nim | 2 +- beacon_chain/sync/sync_manager.nim | 4 +- docs/e2store.md | 20 +- ncli/e2store.nim | 44 ++- ncli/ncli_db.nim | 28 +- 14 files changed, 524 insertions(+), 51 deletions(-) create mode 100644 beacon_chain/era_db.nim diff --git a/.github/workflows/ci.yml b/.github/workflows/ci.yml index 8158a83c7..500fe37e6 100644 --- a/.github/workflows/ci.yml +++ b/.github/workflows/ci.yml @@ -211,17 +211,32 @@ jobs: -

The state transition function in ethereum does 3 things: slot processing, epoch processing and block processing, in that order. In particular, the slot and epoch processing is done for every slot and epoch, but the block processing may be skipped. When epoch processing is done, all the epoch-related fields in the state have been written, and a new epoch can begin - it's thus reasonable to say that the epoch processing is the last thing that happens in an epoch and the block processing happens in the context of the new epoch. -Storing the "canonical state" without the block applied means that any block from the new epoch can be applied to it - if two histories exist, one that skips the first block in the epoch and one that includes it, one can use the same canonical state in both cases. +Storing the "era state" without the block applied means that any block from the new epoch can be applied to it - if two histories exist, one that skips the first block in the epoch and one that includes it, one can use the same era state in both cases. +One downside is that future blocks will store the state root of the "era state" with the block applied, making it slightly harder to verify that the state in a given era file is part of a particular history. + +TODO: consider workarounds for the above point - one can state-transition to find the right state root, but that increases verification requirements significantly. diff --git a/ncli/e2store.nim b/ncli/e2store.nim index 917e6ee19..c2fe272a7 100644 --- a/ncli/e2store.nim +++ b/ncli/e2store.nim @@ -4,9 +4,14 @@ import std/strformat, stew/[arrayops, endians2, io2, results], snappy, snappy/framing, - ../beacon_chain/spec/forks, + ../beacon_chain/spec/[beacon_time, forks], ../beacon_chain/spec/eth2_ssz_serialization +export io2 + +type + Era* = distinct uint64 # Time unit, similar to slot + const E2Version* = [byte 0x65, 0x32] E2Index* = [byte 0x69, 0x32] @@ -18,7 +23,10 @@ const LengthFieldLen = 6 HeaderFieldLen = TypeFieldLen + LengthFieldLen + FAR_FUTURE_ERA* = Era(not 0'u64) + type + Type* = array[2, byte] Header* = object @@ -33,19 +41,32 @@ type startSlot*: Slot offsets*: seq[int64] # Absolute positions in file +ethTimeUnit Era + +func era*(s: Slot): Era = + if s == FAR_FUTURE_SLOT: FAR_FUTURE_ERA + else: Era(s div SLOTS_PER_HISTORICAL_ROOT) + +func start_slot*(e: Era): Slot = + const maxEra = Era(FAR_FUTURE_SLOT div SLOTS_PER_HISTORICAL_ROOT) + if e >= maxEra: FAR_FUTURE_SLOT + else: Slot(e.uint64 * SLOTS_PER_HISTORICAL_ROOT) + proc toString(v: IoErrorCode): string = try: ioErrorMsg(v) except Exception as e: raiseAssert e.msg -func eraFileName*(cfg: RuntimeConfig, state: ForkyBeaconState, era: uint64): string = +func eraFileName*( + cfg: RuntimeConfig, genesis_validators_root: Eth2Digest, + historical_roots: openArray[Eth2Digest], era: Era): string = try: let historicalRoot = - if era == 0: state.genesis_validators_root - elif era > state.historical_roots.lenu64(): Eth2Digest() - else: state.historical_roots.asSeq()[era - 1] + if era == Era(0): genesis_validators_root + elif era > historical_roots.lenu64(): Eth2Digest() + else: historical_roots[int(uint64(era)) - 1] - &"{cfg.name()}-{era.int:05}-{1:05}-{shortLog(historicalRoot)}.era" + &"{cfg.name()}-{era.uint64:05}-{1:05}-{shortLog(historicalRoot)}.era" except ValueError as exc: raiseAssert exc.msg @@ -186,10 +207,13 @@ proc readIndex*(f: IoHandle): Result[Index, string] = for i in 0.. fileSize: return err("Invalid offset") offsets[i] = absolute diff --git a/ncli/ncli_db.nim b/ncli/ncli_db.nim index 5c1247a0c..9190f5ed4 100644 --- a/ncli/ncli_db.nim +++ b/ncli/ncli_db.nim @@ -423,11 +423,11 @@ proc cmdRewindState(conf: DbConf, cfg: RuntimeConfig) = dump("./", state) do: raiseAssert "withUpdatedState failed" -func atCanonicalSlot(blck: BlockRef, slot: Slot): BlockSlot = +func atCanonicalSlot(dag: ChainDAGRef, bid: BlockId, slot: Slot): Opt[BlockSlotId] = if slot == 0: - blck.atSlot(slot) + ok dag.genesis.atSlot() else: - blck.atSlot(slot - 1).blck.atSlot(slot) + ok BlockSlotId.init((?
