Used during initial development of the spec, `nbench` has fallen behind
and by and large been superceded by `block_sim`, `state_sim` and
`ncli_db bench`.
Some `LightClientUpdate` documentation of the spec is meant to span
multiple fields but was attached to a single, incorrect field in Nimbus.
This patch moves affected documentation to correct locations.
Turning uncompressed pubkeys into cooked ones is fast, but unnecessary -
this should avoid a little work for every signature validation we do by
pre-loading them at startup.
Renames and cleanups split out from the validator monitoring branch, so
as to reduce conflict area vs other PR:s
* add constants for expected message timing
* name validators after the messages they validate, mostly, to make
grepping easier
* unify field naming of EpochInfo across forks to make cross-fork code
easier
* ncli_db: add putState, putBlock
These tools allow modifying an existing nimbus database for the purpose
of recovery or reorg, moving the head, tail and genesis to arbitrary
points.
* remove potentially expensive `putState` in `BeaconStateDB`
* introduce `latest_block_root` which computes the root of the latest
applied block from the `latest_block_header` field (instead of passing
it in separately)
* avoid some unnecessary BeaconState copies during init
* discover https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/19094
* prefer `HashedBeaconState` in a few places to avoid recomputing state
root
* fetch latest block root from state when creating blocks
* harden `get_beacon_proposer_index` against invalid slots and document
* move random spec function tests to `test_spec.nim`
* avoid unnecessary state root computation before block proposal
* Support starting from altair
* hide `finalized-checkpoint-` - they are incomplete and usage may cause
crashes
* remove genesis detection code (broken, obsolete)
* enable starting ChainDAG from altair checkpoints - this is a
prerequisite for checkpoint sync (TODO: backfill)
* tighten checkpoint state conditions
* show error when starting from checkpoint with existing database (not
supported)
* print rest-compatible JSON in ncli/state_sim
* altair/merge support in ncli
* more altair/merge support in ncli_db
* pre-load header to speed up loading
* fix forked block decoding
* Address review comments in #3057
* reorder imports in rest_utils
maybe this will help with the mysterious serialization issues

According to the spec, this call should return the positions of
the specified validators within the sync committee. The existing
code was instead returning the indices of the sync sub-committees
where the validator is a member.
* fix stack overflow crash in REST/debug/getStateV2
* introduce `ForkyXxx` for generic type matching of `Xxx` across
branches (SomeHashedBeaconState -> ForkyHashedBeaconState et al) -
`Some` is already used for other types of type classes
* consolidate function naming in BeaconChainDB, use some generics
* import `forks.nim` from other spec modules and move `Forked*` helpers
around to resolve circular imports
* remove `ForkedBeaconState`, use `ForkedHashedBeaconState` throughout
(less data shuffling between the types)
* fix several cases of states being stored on stack in tests, causing
random failures on some platforms
* remove reading json support from ncli - this should be ported to the
rest json reading instead (doesn't currently work because stack sizes)
The sync committee period used to be a plain `uint64`. With the light
client sync relying more heavily on them, it makes sense to introduce
a proper type for them, similar to how they are already used for `Slot`
and `Epoch`. This introduces such a `SyncCommitteePeriod` type.
Furthermore, some usage code dealing with those periods is cleaned up.
So far, the REST config response did not include all spec constants.
The spec for `/eth/v1/config/spec` defines that the response should
include constants for all hard forks known by the beacon node. This
patch extends the corresponding response to include more constants.
* Add `child_id` field.
* Fix json-rpc api call and bump chronos.
* Bump chronos master and fix compilation warnings.
* One more bump of `chronos`.
* add random import
* export rest_utils a bit more

Spec constants currently use `uint16` instead of `GeneralizedIndex` to
define generalized indices in a merkle tree. Adjusted to use the latter
instead to avoid problems when adjusting `GeneralizedIndex`'s bit width.
* auto-bump nim-libp2p
* Remove peer info for other peers
Not definitive, just to test the libp2p's unstable branch
* finish up Remove peer info for other peers
* getKey -> getPublicKey
* bump libp2p
* libp2p bump

The validator client was only able to connect to beacon nodes exposing
the exact same set of spec constants that are locally known via their
config/spec REST API. However, that set of spec constants is dynamic.
As the validator client only requires a subset of relevant constants,
this may lead to compatible specs being rejected. This patch widens the
allowed specs by only verifying that the required set of constants are
present in the spec response, ignoring any spec constants that are not
locally known, and ignoring missing spec constants that are locally
known but not included by the remote beacon node when not relevant for
operation of the validator client.
* `SyncCommitteeIndex` -> `SyncSubcommitteeIndex`
* `syncCommitteePeriod` -> `sync_committee_period` (spec spelling)
* tighten period comparisons
* fix assert when validating committee message with non-altair state in
REST api
