Other changes:
* logtrace can now verify sync committee messages and contributions
* Many unnecessary use of pairs() have been removed for consistency
* Map 40x BN response codes to BeaconNodeStatus.Incompatible in the VC
The spec implicitly talks about the slot of a block in several places,
and keeping it readily available is useful in a number of context -
might as well put this implicitly refereneced helper in the spec code
directly
One more step on the journey to reduce `BlockRef` usage across the
codebase - this one gets rid of `StateData` whose job was to keep track
of which block was last assigned to a state - these duties have now been
taken over by `latest_block_root`, a fairly recent addition that
computes this block root from state data (at a small cost that should be
insignificant)
99% mechanical change.
* fewer deps on `BlockRef` traversal in anticipation of pruning
* allows identifying EpochRef:s by their shuffling as a first step of
* tighten error handling around missing blocks
using the zero hash for signalling "missing block" is fragile and easy
to miss - with checkpoint sync now, and pruning in the future, missing
blocks become "normal".
The new format is based on compressed CSV files in two channels:
* Detailed per-epoch data
* Aggregated "daily" summaries
The use of append-only CSV file speeds up significantly the epoch
processing speed during data generation. The use of compression
results in smaller storage requirements overall. The use of the
aggregated files has a very minor cost in both CPU and storage,
but leads to near interactive speed for report generation.
Other changes:
- Implemented support for graceful shut downs to avoid corrupting
the saved files.
- Fixed a memory leak caused by lacking `StateCache` clean up on each
iteration.
- Addressed review comments
- Moved the rewards and penalties calculation code in a separate module
Required invasive changes to existing modules:
- The `data` field of the `KeyedBlockRef` type is made public to be used
by the validator rewards monitor's Chain DAG update procedure.
- The `getForkedBlock` procedure from the `blockchain_dag.nim` module
is made public to be used by the validator rewards monitor's Chain DAG
update procedure.
This is an alternative take on https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3107
that aims for more minimal interventions in the spec modules at the expense of
duplicating more of the spec logic in ncli_db.
Time in the beacon chain is expressed relative to the genesis time -
this PR creates a `beacon_time` module that collects helpers and
utilities for dealing the time units - the new module does not deal with
actual wall time (that's remains in `beacon_clock`).
Collecting the time related stuff in one place makes it easier to find,
avoids some circular imports and allows more easily identifying the code
actually needs wall time to operate.
* move genesis-time-related functionality into `spec/beacon_time`
* avoid using `chronos.Duration` for time differences - it does not
support negative values (such as when something happens earlier than it
should)
* saturate conversions between `FAR_FUTURE_XXX`, so as to avoid
overflows
* fix delay reporting in validator client so it uses the expected
deadline of the slot, not "closest wall slot"
* simplify looping over the slots of an epoch
* `compute_start_slot_at_epoch` -> `start_slot`
* `compute_epoch_at_slot` -> `epoch`
A follow-up PR will (likely) introduce saturating arithmetic for the
time units - this is merely code moves, renames and fixing of small
bugs.
* Harden CommitteeIndex, SubnetId, SyncSubcommitteeIndex
Harden the use of `CommitteeIndex` et al to prevent future issues by
using a distinct type, then validating before use in several cases -
datatypes in spec are kept simple though so that invalid data still can
be read.
* fix invalid epoch used in REST
`/eth/v1/beacon/states/{state_id}/committees` committee length (could
return invalid data)
* normalize some variable names
* normalize committee index loops
* fix `RestAttesterDuty` to use `uint64` for `validator_committee_index`
* validate `CommitteeIndex` on ingress in REST API
* update rest rules with stricter parsing
* better REST serializers
* save lots of memory by not using `zip` ...at least a few bytes!
* REST cleanups

* print all hex values as lower-case
* allow requesting state information by head state root
* turn `DomainType` into array (follow spec)
* `uint_to_bytesXX` -> `uint_to_bytes` (follow spec)
* fix wrong dependent root in `/eth/v1/validator/duties/proposer/`
* update documentation - `--subscribe-all-subnets` is no longer needed
when using the REST interface with validator clients
* more fixes
* common helpers for dependent block
* remove test rules obsoleted by more strict epoch tests
* fix trailing commas
* Update docs/the_nimbus_book/src/rest-api.md
* Update docs/the_nimbus_book/src/rest-api.md

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`.
* 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)
Similar to the existing `RewardInfo`, this PR adds the infrastructure
needed to export epoch processing information from altair+. Because
accounting is done somewhat differently, the PR uses a fork-specific
object to extrct the information in order to make the cost on the spec
side low.
* RewardInfo -> EpochInfo, ForkedEpochInfo
* use array for computing new sync committee
* avoid repeated total active balance computations in block processing
* simplify proposer index check
* simplify epoch transition tests
* pre-compute base increment and reuse in epoch processing, and a few
other small optimizations
This PR introduces the type and does the heavy lifting in terms of
refactoring - the tools that use the accounting will need separate PR:s
(as well as refinements to the exportred information)
* "official" -> "scenarios", like the submodule
* fewer test binaries - various compile hacks have been improved over
time, test suite should follow
* remove obsolete bls tests - there are better test vectors in
nim-blscurve
* remove obsolete mentions of `ssz_testing`
* remove obsolete comments about proc vs globals, unittest2 already uses
proc's
* add merge SSZ consensus object tests
* add merge attestations, attester slashing, proposer slashing, and voluntary exit test fixtures
* throw catchable exception rather than assert on invalid SingleMemberUnion selector
* hash_tree_root can assert, because it's trusted data by that point
* re-assert on writing, since also trusted data
* beta.4 update
* implement upgrade_to_merge()
* construct all unslashed, participating balances in one validator scan
* remove altair benchmarking setup for block_sim
* revert a benchmarking change from proc to func
* remove more benchmarking func/proc tweaks
* re-add asSeq, which is necessary because unsafeAddr
* ... except for the block_sim benchmark part
* approximately double altair epoch processing speed
* don't redundantly clear state balances cache
* only invalidate altair state balances cache once in process_rewards_and_penalties()
* 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

The spec imports are a mess to work with, so this branch cleans them up
a bit to ensure that we avoid generic sandwitches and that importing
stuff generally becomes easier.
* reexport crypto/digest/presets because these are part of the public
symbol set of the rest of the spec types
* don't export `merge` types from `base` - this causes circular deps
* fix circular deps in `ssz/spec_types` - this is the first step in
disentangling ssz from spec
* be explicit about phase0 vs altair - longer term, `altair` will become
the "natural" type set, then merge and so on, so no point in giving
`phase0` special preferential treatment
Simpler module name for stuff that covers forks
* check that runtime config matches database state
* also include some assorted altair cleanups
* use "standard" genesis fork in local testnet to work around missing
runtime config support
* Implement split preset/config support
This is the initial bulk refactor to introduce runtime config values in
a number of places, somewhat replacing the existing mechanism of loading
network metadata.
It still needs more work, this is the initial refactor that introduces
runtime configuration in some of the places that need it.
The PR changes the way presets and constants work, to match the spec. In
particular, a "preset" now refers to the compile-time configuration
while a "cfg" or "RuntimeConfig" is the dynamic part.
A single binary can support either mainnet or minimal, but not both.
Support for other presets has been removed completely (can be readded,
in case there's need).
There's a number of outstanding tasks:
* `SECONDS_PER_SLOT` still needs fixing
* loading custom runtime configs needs redoing
* checking constants against YAML file
* yeerongpilly support
`build/nimbus_beacon_node --network=yeerongpilly --discv5:no --log-level=DEBUG`
* load fork epoch from config
* fix fork digest sent in status
* nicer error string for request failures
* fix tools
* one more
* fixup
* fixup
* fixup
* use "standard" network definition folder in local testnet
Files are loaded from their standard locations, including genesis etc,
to conform to the format used in the `eth2-networks` repo.
* fix launch scripts, allow unknown config values
* fix base config of rest test
* cleanups
* bundle mainnet config using common loader
* fix spec links and names
* only include supported preset in binary
* drop yeerongpilly, add altair-devnet-0, support boot_enr.yaml
* remove false OnBlockAdded dependency on phase.HashedBeaconState
* introduce altair data types into block_clearance; update some alpha.6 spec refs to alpha.7; add get_active_validator_indices_len ForkedHashedBeaconState wrapper
* switch many modules from using datatypes (with phase0 states/blocks) to datatypes/base (fork-independent); update spec refs from alpha.6 to alpha.7 and remove rm'd G2_POINT_AT_INFINITY
* switch more modules from using datatypes (with phase0 states/blocks) to datatypes/base (fork-independent); update spec refs from alpha.6 to alpha.7
* remove unnecessary phase0-only wrapper of get_attesting_indices(); allow signatures_batch to process either fork; remove O(n^2) nested loop in process_inactivity_updates(); add altair support to getAttestationsforTestBlock()
* add Altair versions of asSigVerified(), asTrusted(), and makeBeaconBlock()
* fix spec URL to be Altair for Altair makeBeaconBlock()
* update to Altair as of v1.1.0-alpha.7
* introduce Altair types into attestation pool
* avoid allocating/copying pubkeys excessively in get_next_sync_committee()
* use ForkedHashedBeaconState in StateData
* fix FAR_FUTURE_EPOCH -> slot overflow; almost always use assign()
* avoid stack allocation in maybeUpgradeStateToAltair()
* create and use dispatch functions for check_attester_slashing(), check_proposer_slashing(), and check_voluntary_exit()
* use getStateRoot() instead of various state.data.hbsPhase0.root
* remove withStateVars.hashedState(), which doesn't work as a design anymore
* introduce spec/datatypes/altair into beacon_chain_db
* fix inefficient codegen for getStateField(largeStateField)
* state_transition_slots() doesn't either need/use blocks or runtime presets
* combine process_slots(HBS)/state_transition_slots(HBS) which differ only in last-slot htr optimization
* getStateField(StateData, ...) was replaced by getStateField(ForkedHashedBeaconState, ...)
* fix rollback
* switch some state_transition(), process_slots, makeTestBlocks(), etc to use ForkedHashedBeaconState
* remove state_transition(phase0.HashedBeaconState)
* remove process_slots(phase0.HashedBeaconState)

* remove unused callWithBS(); separate case expression from if statement
* switch back from nested-ref-object construction to (ref Foo)(Bar())
Instead of keeping a validator key list per EpochRef, this PR introduces
a single shared validator key list in ChainDAG, and cleans up some other
ChainDAG and key-related issues.
The PR does not introduce the validator key list in the state transition
- this is because we batch-check all signatures before entering the spec
code, thus the spec code never hits the cache.
A future refactor should _probably_ remove the threadvar altogether.
There's a few other small fixes in here that make the flow easier to
read:
* fix `var ChainDAGRef` -> `ChainDAGRef`
* fix `var QuarantineRef` -> `QuarantineRef`
* consistent `dag` variable name
* avoid using threadvar pubkey cache in most cases
* better error messages in batch signature checking
* proposed structure for hf1
* refactor datatypes.nim into datatypes/{base, phase0, hf1}.nim
* hf1 is Altair
* some syncing with alpha 2
* adjust epoch processing to disambiguate access to RewardFlags
* relocate StateData to stay consistent with meaning phase 0 StateData
* passes v1.1.0 alpha 5 SSZ consensus object tests
* Altair block header test fixtures work
* fix slash_validator() so that Altair attester slashings, proposer slashings, and voluntary exit textures work
* deposit operation Altair test fixtures work
* slot sanity and all but a couple epoch transition tests switched to Altair
* attestation Altair test fixtures work
* Altair block sanity test fixtures work
* add working altair sync committee tests
* improve workarounds for sum-types-across-modules Nim bug; incorporate SignedBeaconBlock root reconstuction to SSZ byte reader
* use StateData in place of BeaconState outside state transition code
* propagate more StateData usage
* remove withStateVars().state
* wrap get_beacon_committee(BeaconState, ...) as gbc(StateData, ...)
* switch makeAttestation() to use StateData
* use StateData wrapper/dispatcher for get_committee_count_per_slot()
* convert AttestationCache.init(), weak subjectivity functions, and updateValidatorMetrics()
* add get_shuffled_active_validator_indices(StateData) and get_block_root_at_slot(StateData)
* switch makeAttestationData() to StateData
* sync AllTests-mainnet.md after rebase
* Revert "Revert "Upgrade database schema" (#2570)"
This reverts commit 6057c2ffb4.
* ssz: fix loading empty lists into existing instances
Not a problem earlier because we didn't reuse instances
* bump nim-eth
* bump nim-web3
The `kvstore` design we're using now turns out to not be the best way to
use `sqlite` - in particular, there are some significant benefits to
using rowid in certain situations and to keep data in separate tables.
With this branch, there are massive improvements in startup time
(seconds instead of minutes) and state/block storage and pruning times
(milliseconds instead of seconds) - these improvements can in particular
be seen on slow drives and translate directly into better attestation
performance.
* update kvstore to new keyspace design
* remove `DirStoreRef` and the hidden `--state-db-kind` option - this
was an experiment to store large blobs in files, but with the new
kvstore, there's no compelling reason to do so
* remove `DbMap` - unused and would need updating for new keyspace
design
* introduce separate tables for each data type (blocks, states etc)
* remove "WITHOUT ROWID" pessimization for tables with large blobs
* close DbSeq statements explicitly (and earlier)
* store beacon block summaries in separate table, without SSZ
compression and load them all with single query on startup
* stop storing backwards compat full states
* mark genesis beacon block as trusted
* avoid faststreams when loading SSZ data
* remove `DisagreementBehavior` (unused)
* avoid creating indexed attestation just to check signatures - above
all, don't create it when not checking signatures ;)
* avoid pointer op when adding attestation to pool
* better iterator for yielding attestations
* add metric / log for attestation packing time
* Reset cached indices when resetting cache on SSZ read
When deserializing into an existing structure, the cache should be
cleared - goes for json also. Also improve error messages.
* use IntSet rather than HashSet[ValidatorIndex]
* add bounds check before uint64 -> int conversion
* use intsets in block transitions
* remove superfluous Nim issue explanation/reference
* performance fixes
* don't mark tree cache as dirty on read-only List accesses
* store only blob in memory for keys and signatures, parse blob lazily
* compare public keys by blob instead of parsing / converting to raw
* compare Eth2Digest using non-constant-time comparison
* avoid some unnecessary validator copying
This branch will in particular speed up deposit processing which has
been slowing down block replay.

Validators exiting is normal, no need to scream about it
* avoid reallocating seq on big exit queue
* avoid fetching state cache when updating head (it's rarely needed)
* remove incorrectly implemented live validator counts (avoids memory
allocs)
Calculating rewards/penalties is slow due to how we compute sets of
attestations validators then use the sets for inclusion checks, to see
who attested. The dominant function during validated block processing /
epoch processing is hash set building and lookup.
This PR inverts the flow by removing the sets and creating a single
large validator status list, then applying all relevant state
attestations, then updating rewards and penalties.
This provides a 10x speedup to epoch processing which in turn speeds up
both empty slot and block processing - for example, on startup, we
replay all non-finalized blocks to prime fork choice - the same when
validating attestations or replaying states on reorg.
* misc memory and perf fixes
* use EpochRef for attestation aggregation
* compress effective balances in memory (medalla unfinalized: 4gb ->
1gb)
* avoid hitting db when rewinding to head or clearance state
* avoid hitting db when blocks can be applied to in-memory state -
speeds up startup considerably
* avoid storing epochref in fork choice
* simplify and speed up beacon block creation flow - avoids state reload
thanks to head rewind optimization
* iterator-based committee and attestation participation help avoid lots
of small memory allocations throughout epoch transition (40% speedup on
epoch processing, for example during startup)
* add constant for threshold
* evaluate block attestations under the epochref of the block - this is
what the state transition function does
* avoid copying attestation seq unnecessarily
* avoid unnecessary hashset for unslashed indices
* Lazy loading of crypto objects
* Try to fix incorrect field access by hiding fields but no luck. SSZ/Chronicles/macro bug?
* Fix incorrect blsValue access. was "aggregate" not "chronicles"
* Fix tests that rely on the internal BLSValue representation
* limit attestations kept in attestation pool
With fork choice updated, the attestation pool only needs to keep track
of attestations that will eventually end up in blocks - we can thus
limit the horizon of attestations that we keep more aggressively.
To get here, we expose getEpochRef which gets metadata about a
particular epochref, and make sure to populate it when a block is added
- this ensures that state rewinds during block addition are minimized.
In addition, we'll use the target root/epoch when validating
attestations - this helps minimize the number of different states that
we need to rewind to, in general.
* remove CandidateChains.justifiedState
unused
* remove BlockPools.Head object
* avoid quadratic quarantine loop
* fix
* add helper for beacon committee length (used for quickly validating
attestations)
* refactor some attestation checks to do cheap checks early
* validate attestation epoch before computing active validator set
* clean up documentation / comments
* fill state cache on demand
* avoid converting from uint64 to int, and where most feasible, int type conversion at all
* .len.uint64 -> .len64
* fix 32-bit compilation
* try keeping state_sim loop variable/bounds as int for 32-bit Azure
* len64 -> lenu64
* cache beacon committee size calculation
this fixes a bug in get_validator_churn_limit as well
* fix
* make committee counts consistently uint64
mixing feels like the worst of the two worlds
hash_tree_root was turning up when running beacon_node, turns out to be
repeated hash_tree_root invocations - this pr brings them back down to
normal.
this PR caches the root of a block in the SignedBeaconBlock object -
this has the potential downside that even invalid blocks will be hashed
(as part of deserialization) - later, one could imagine delaying this
until checks have passed
there's also some cleanup of the `cat=` logs which were applied randomly
and haphazardly, and to a large degree are duplicated by other
information in the log statements - in particular, topics fulfill the
same role
* restore EpochRef and flush statecaches on epoch transitions
* more targeted cache invalidation
* remove get_empty_per_epoch_cache(); implement simpler but still faster get_beacon_proposer_index()/compute_proposer_index() approach; add some abstraction layer for accessing the shuffled validator indices cache
* reduce integer type conversions
* remove most of rest of integer type conversion in compute_proposer_index()
This also assigns precise types to the constants in the minimal
and mainnet presets in order to reduce the chance of compilation
errors when custom presets are used (previously, only the custom
presets have precisely assigned types for the constants).
* update most of the remaining non-fork-choice spec refs, updating code where necessary
* revert presumably harmless compute_signing_root() change, but this way, keep things really unchanged outside inspector
* Dual headed fork choice
* fix finalizedEpoch not moving
* reduce fork choice verbosity
* Add failing tests due to pruning
* Properly handle duplicate blocks in sync
* test_block_pool also add a test for duplicate blocks
* comments addressing review
* Fix fork choice v2, was missing integrating block proposed
* remove a spurious debug writeStackTrace
* update block_sim
* Use OrderedTable to ensure that we always load parents before children in fork choice
* Load the DAG data in fork choice at init if there is some (can sync witti)
* Cluster of quarantined blocks were not properly added to the fork choice
* Workaround async gcsafe warnings
* Update blockpoool tests
* Do the callback before clearing the quarantine
* Revert OrderedTable, implement topological sort of DAG, allow forkChoice to be initialized from arbitrary finalized heads
* Make it work with latest devel - Altona readyness
* Add a recovery mechanism when forkchoice desyncs with blockpool
* add the current problematic node to the stack
* Fix rebase indentation bug (but still producing invalid block)
* Fix cache at epoch boundaries and lateBlock addition
* adopt Result[void, string] in place of some bool return signatures
* string -> cstring to reduce memory allocations; ensure all err() strings are constants, with contextual information from higher-level callers
* logScope usage fixes
* homogenize err() reporting convention
* invalid signature in deposit isn't an error
* cleanups
* fix ncli state root check flag
* add block dump to ncli_db
* limit ncli_db benchmark length
* tone down finalization logs
* introduce trusted blocks
We only store blocks whose signature we've verified in the database - as
such, there's no need to check it again, and most importantly, no need
to deserialize the signature when loading from database.
50x startup time improvement, 200x block load time improvement.
* fix rewinding when deposits have invalid signature
* speed up ancestor iteration by avoiding copy
* avoid deserializing signatures for trusted data
* load blocks lazily when rewinding (less memory used)
* chronicles workarounds
* document trustedbeaconblock
* collect signature production and verificaiton in one place
Signatures are made over data and domain - here we collect all such
activities in one place.
Also:
* security: fix cast-before-range-check
* log block/attestation verification consistently
* run block verification based on `getProposer` in its own history
* clean up some unused stuff
* import
* missing raises
* random fixes
* create dump dir on startup
* don't crash on failure to write dump
* fix a few `uint64` instances being used when indexing arrays - this
should be a compile error but isn't due to compiler bugs
* fix standalone test_block_pool compilation
* add signed block processing in ncli
* reuse cache entry instead of allocating a new one
* allow for small clock disparities when validating blocks
* reorder ssz
* split into hash_trees and ssz_serialization, roughly, for hashing and
IO
* move bitseqs into ssz (from stew)
* clean up imports
* docs, imports
* sync fixes
* fix Status message finalized info
* work around sync starting before initial status exchange
* don't fail block on deposit signature check failure (fixes#989)
* print ForkDigest and Version nicely
* dump incoming blocks
* fix crash when libp2p peer connection is closed
* update chunk size to 16 to work around missing blocks when syncing
* bump libp2p
* bump libp2p
* better deposit skip message
* fix some warnings related to beacon_node splitting; reimplement finalization verification more robustly; improve attestation pool block selection logic
* re-add missing import
* whitelist allowed state transition flags and make rollback/restore naming more consistent
* restore usage of update flags passed into skipAndUpdateState(...) in addition to the potential verifyFinalization flag
* switch rest of rollback -> restore
* remove near-duplicate code paths: process_slot(), process_slots(), and state_transition() for BeaconState are now wrappers around the HashedBeaconState versions
* convert tests/test_state_transition.nim to use HashedBeaconState
* convert mocking infrastructure and spec_block/epoch_processing tests to use HashedBeaconBlock, and remove thus unused process_slot*(state: var BeaconState)
* add another check for inconsistent aggregation and committee length, since ncli_transition bypasses process_attestation(...)/check_attestation(...) and calls almost directly into process_epoch(...)
* bump validator functions to v0.11.1 spec references
* bump some spec references to v0.11.1
* poke
* initial extended validation setup
* flesh out all TODO items for attestation and beaconblock verification
* fix finalization and add chronicles debugging messages
* directly use blockPool.headState rather than pointlessly updating it and document this constraint
* fix logic relating to first-attestation checking; support validating blocks across multiple forks
* initial 0.11.1 spec commit; no test regressions and finalizes in eth2_network_simulation
* with BLS 0.10/0.11 available, stop skipping attester slashing, proposer slashing, and voluntary exist operations fixture tests
* switch param orders to group state.{fork, genesis_validators_root}; bump spec/datatypes spec version for network purposes
* mark attestation construction and broadcast and some minimal/mainnet constants as 0.11.1-compatible; remove phase 1 sharding constants from minimal which don't exist in that preset
