* Local sim impovements
* Added support for running Capella and EIP-4844 simulations
by downloading the correct version of Geth.
* Added support for using Nimbus remote signer and Web3Signer.
Use 2 out of 3 threshold signing configuration in the mainnet
configuration and regular remote signing in the minimal one.
* The local testnet simulation can now use a payload builder.
This is currently not activated in CI due to lack of automated
procedures for installing third-party relays or builders.
You are adviced to use mergemock for now, but for most realistic
results, we can create a simple builder based on the nimbus-eth1
codebase that will be able to propose transactions from the regular
network mempool.
* Start the simulation from a merged state. This would allow us
to start removing pre-merge functionality such as the gossip
subsciption logic. The commit also removes the merge-forcing
hack installed after the TTD removal.
* Consolidate all the tools used in the local simulation into a
single `ncli_testnet` binary.
Other changes:
Renamed the `EIP_4844_FORK_*` config constants to `DENEB_FORK_*` as
this matches the latest spec and it's already used in the official
Sepolia config.
* Fix getStateRoot() and getBlockRoot() API functions which should obtain `execution_optimistic` field.
Fix sync committee service to check `execution_optimistic` field of getBlockRoot() response.
* 2nd part.
* Remove presets usage.
* clean up some Nim 1.2 workarounds
* re-add notes about JS backend
* another proc/noSideEffect -> func
* revert ncli/ncli_common.nim changes; 19969 evidently wasn't backported to 1.6
* debug log upon sidecar validation failure
* Fill in signature catch upon SignedBeaconBlockAndBlobsSidecar deser
* Always fill blobssidecar slot and root
* Skip lastFCU when eth1monitor is nil
* fix
* Use cached root
* combine common implementation of LC helpers
Combine replicated helper code from Altair/Capella/EIP4844 into single
`Forky` based implementation. Also convert `template` to `func` to avoid
selection of incorrect overload.
* fix
* eip4844 beacon block proposals
* Don't fetch blobs under minimal preset
@tersec's summary of the issue:
BlobsBundleV1 in the execution API spec assumes a mainnet preset blob
size, where the EIP4844 consensus spec defines
FIELD_ELEMENTS_PER_BLOB: 4 under the minimal preset, which leads to a
Blob having a length of 4 * 32, not 4096 * 32 which BlobsBundleV1
requires.
* Revert unintentional script change
* exit/validatorchange pool includes BLS to execution messages; REST
support for new pool
* catch failed individual futures
* increase BLS changes bound and keep BLS seen consistent with subpool
* deque capacities should be powers of 2
* Refactor block/blobs types
Use type system to enforce invariant that a pre-4844 block cannot have
a sidecar.
* Update beacon_chain/nimbus_beacon_node.nim

When running `nimbus_light_client`, we persist the latest header from
`LightClientStore.finalized_header` in a database across restarts.
Because the data format is derived from the latest `LightClientStore`,
this could lead to data being persisted in pre-release formats.
To enable us to test later `LightClientStore` versions on devnets,
transition to a `ForkedLightClientStore` internally that is only
migrated to newer forks on-demand (instead of starting at latest).
Distinguish between those code locations that need to be updated on each
light client data format change, and those others that should generally
be fine, as long as a valid light client object is processed.
The former are tagged with static assert for `LightClientDataFork.high`.
The latter are changed to `lcDataFork > LightClientDataFork.None` to
indicate that they depend only on presence of any valid object.
Also bundled a few minor cleanups and fixes.
Also add `Forky` type for `LightClientStore` and minor fixes / cleanups.
The light client data structures were changed to accommodate additional
fields in future forks (e.g., to also hold execution data).
There is a minor change to the JSON serialization, where the `header`
properties are now nested inside a `LightClientHeader`.
The SSZ serialization remains compatible.
See https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3190
and https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/287
In a future fork, light client data will be extended with execution info
to support more use cases. To anticipate such an upgrade, introduce
`Forky` and `Forked` types, and ready the database schema.
Because the mapping of sync committee periods to fork versions is not
necessarily unique (fork schedule not in sync with period boundaries),
an additional column is added to `period` -> `LightClientUpdate` table.
Introduce (optional) pruning of historical data - a pruned node will
continue to answer queries for historical data up to
`MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOCK_REQUESTS` epochs, or roughly 5 months, capping
typical database usage at around 60-70gb.
To enable pruning, add `--history=prune` to the command line - on the
first start, old data will be cleared (which may take a while) - after
that, data is pruned continuously.
When pruning an existing database, the database will not shrink -
instead, the freed space is recycled as the node continues to run - to
free up space, perform a trusted node sync with a fresh database.
When switching on archive mode in a pruned node, history is retained
from that point onwards.
History pruning is scheduled to be enabled by default in a future
release.
In this PR, `minimal` mode from #4419 is not implemented meaning
retention periods for states and blocks are always the same - depending
on user demand, a future PR may implement `minimal` as well.
When not backfilling all the way to genesis (#4421), it becomes more
useful to start rebuilding the historical indices from an arbitrary
starting point.
To rebuild the index from non-genesis, a state and an unbroken block
history is needed - here, we allow loading the state from an era file
and recreating the history from there onwards.
* speed up partial era state loading
* 60% state replay speedup
* don't use HashList for epoch participation - in addition to the code
currently clearing the caches several times redundantly, clearing has to
be done each block nullifying the benefit (35%)
* introduce active balance cache - computing it is slow due to cache
unfriendliness in the random access pattern and bounds checking and we
do it for every block - this cache follows the same update pattern as
the active validator index cache (20%)
* avoid recomputing base reward several times per attestation (5%)
Applying 1024 blocks goes from 20s to ~8s on my laptop - these kinds of
requests happen on historical REST queries but also whenever there's a
reorg.
* fix test and diffs
* consolidate consensus spec transition test fixtures
* include capella
* consoliate fork test fixtures
* note change in EIP-4844 process_block in alpha.2
Other changes:
* More optimal search for TTD block.
* Add timeouts to all REST requests during trusted node sync.
Fixes#4037
* Removed support for storing a deposit snapshot in the network
metadata.
* Types and scaffolding for EIP-4844
This commit adds the EIP-4844 spec types, and fills in
scaffolding/boilerplate for the use of these types across the repo.
None of the actual EIP-4844 logic is introduced yet.
This follows the pattern used by @tersec when introducing Capella (#4276).
* use eth2-networks fork
* review feedback: add static check EIP4844_FORK_EPOCH == FAR_FUTURE_EPOCH
* review feedback: remove EIP4844 from /eth/v1/config/spec response
* Cleanup / review feedback
* Fix REST test
