* check blob versioned hashes when no EL is connected
When no EL is conencted, we have to at the very least ensure that the
data in the beacon block is consistent with the execution payload.
We already do this for the block hash, but also have to do it for the
`blob_kzg_commitments`. To validate that they are linked with the
execution payload, we have to RLP decode all EIP-4844 blob transactions
and compare their blob versioned hashes with the hashed commitments.
* simplify loop in case where `blob_versioned_hashes` doesn't exist
* skip blob transaction parsing pre Deneb
To avoid "forked" types creeping into `BlobSidecar`, move the reduction
to `BlobSidecarInfoObject` to the sole caller. The info object is fork
agnostic, so does not need "forked" if `BlobSidecar` ever updates.
When no EL is connected, it is still required to validate the block hash
of `ExecutionPayload` to prevent attacks that trick us into attesting to
a circular chain with invalid in-between block hashes. This is already
done through Deneb but was still missing in Electra to be rectified now.
* extend light client protocol for Electra
Add missing Electra support for light client protocol:
- https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3811
Tested against PR consensus-spec-tests, the test runner automatically
picks up the new tests once available.
* workaround `version-2-0`: `Error: cannot instantiate: 'SomeUnsignedInt'`
* fix initialization when Electra not scheduled
* try reduce stack size in test
* put correct sync committee branch version into DB
* adjust fork schedule in light client data tests
* further reduce stack size
* split function into multiple parts
* rename variable
* regenerate test reports to cover new Electra tests
* add Nim bug reference
Bellatrix light client data does not contain the EL block hash, so we
had to follow blocks gossip to learn the EL `block_hash` of such blocks.
Now that Bellatrix is obsolete, we can simplify EL syncing logic under
light client scenarios. Bellatrix light client data can still be used
to advance the light client sync itself, but will no longer result in
`engine_forkchoiceUpdated` calls until the sync reaches Capella. This
also frees up some memory as we no longer have to retain blocks.
In nim-web3 all std.Option are replaced by results.Opt. The same goes in nim-eth, with additional fields name changes and GasInt changed from int64 to uint64.
* Beacon node side implementation.
* Validator client side implementation.
* Address review comments and fix the test.
* Only 400 errors could be IndexedErrorMessage, 500 errors are always ErrorMessage.
* Remove VC shutdown functionality.
* Remove magic constants.
* Make arguments more visible and disable default values.
* Address review comments.
* electra attestation updates
In Electra, we have two attestation formats: on-chain and on-network -
the former combines all committees of a slot in a single committee bit
list.
This PR makes a number of cleanups to move towards fixing this -
attestation packing however still needs to be fixed as it currently
creates attestations with a single committee only which is very
inefficient.
* more attestations in the blocks
* signing and aggregation fixes
* tool fix
* test, import
In split view situation, the canonical chain may only be served by a
tiny amount of peers, and branches may span long durations. Minority
branches may still have a large weight from attestations and should
be discovered. To assist with that, add a branch discovery module that
assists in such a situation by specifically targeting peers with unknown
histories and downloading from them, in addition to sync manager work
which handles popular branches.
When quarantining a block from block processor, we should also keep a
copy of its blobs. Otherwise, this involves more network roundtrips
to obtain information we already have. This is in line with how blobs
arrive from gossip and request manager sources. The existing flow does
not work when applying blocks from quarantine, which is addressed here.
