`.era` files and Req/Resp protocols use framed formats - aligning the
database with these makes for less recompression work overall as gossip
is sent only once while req/resp repeats (potentially) - this also
allows efficient pruning-to-era where snappy-recompression is the major
cycle thief.
Changes in nim-eth relevant to nimbus-eth2:
- Style fixes according to --styleCheck:usages (#452)
- Add discoveryv5 session metrics (#454)
- Don’t use exceptions for enr get call (#453)
- Add DiscoveryConfig to tune routing table ip limits and bitPerHops
- More --styleCheck fixes for discoveryv5 and eth/common (#473)
The added options work in opt-in fashion. If they are not specified,
the server will respond to all requests as if the CORS specification
doesn't exist. This will result in errors in CORS-enabled clients.
Please note that future versions may support more than one allowed
origin. The option names will stay the same, but the user will be
able to repeat them on the command line (similar to other options
such as --web3-url).
To be documented in the guide in a separate PR.
* Fix a resource leak introduced in https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/3279
* Don't restart the Eth1 syncing proggress from scratch in case of
monitor failures during Eth2 syncing.
* Switch to the primary operator as soon as it is back online.
* Log the web3 credentials in fewer places
Other changes:
The 'web3 test' command has been enhanced to obtain and print more
data regarding the selected provider.
* Store finalized block roots in database (3s startup)
When the chain has finalized a checkpoint, the history from that point
onwards becomes linear - this is exploited in `.era` files to allow
constant-time by-slot lookups.
In the database, we can do the same by storing finalized block roots in
a simple sparse table indexed by slot, bringing the two representations
closer to each other in terms of conceptual layout and performance.
Doing so has a number of interesting effects:
* mainnet startup time is improved 3-5x (3s on my laptop)
* the _first_ startup might take slightly longer as the new index is
being built - ~10s on the same laptop
* we no longer rely on the beacon block summaries to load the full dag -
this is a lot faster because we no longer have to look up each block by
parent root
* a collateral benefit is that we no longer need to load the full
summaries table into memory - we get the RSS benefits of #3164 without
the CPU hit.
Other random stuff:
* simplify forky block generics
* fix withManyWrites multiple evaluation
* fix validator key cache not being updated properly in chaindag
read-only mode
* drop pre-altair summaries from `kvstore`
* recreate missing summaries from altair+ blocks as well (in case
database has lost some to an involuntary restart)
* print database startup timings in chaindag load log
* avoid allocating superfluos state at startup
* use a recursive sql query to load the summaries of the unfinalized
blocks
* initial support for minification and new interchange tests. Removal of v1 and v1 migration.
* Synthetic attestations: SQLite3 requires one statement/query per prepared statement
* Fix DB import interrupted if no attestation was found
* Skip test relying on undocumented test behavior (https://github.com/eth-clients/slashing-protection-interchange-tests/pull/12#issuecomment-1011158701)
* Skip test relying on unclear minification behavior:
creating an invalid minified attestation with source > target or setting target = max(source, target)
* remove DB v1 and update submodule
* Apply suggestions from code review

* 3x speedup in snappy compression
oh, the wonders of `copyMem` in `endians2` - speeds up all kinds of
operations like database stores, sending gossip etc.
* endian usage fixes
A novel optimisation for attestation and sync committee message
validation: when batching, we look for signatures of the same message
and aggregate these before batch-validating: this results in up to 60%
fewer signature verifications on a busy server, leading to a significant
reduction in CPU usage.
* increase batch size slightly which helps finding more aggregates
* add metrics for batch verification efficiency
* use simple `blsVerify` when there is only one signature to verify in
the batch, avoiding the RNG
This updates `nim-ssz-serialization` to
`3cd8d2d6b80bde0ce7f25609cb5cb9fc37852fe2`.
Notable changes:
- Serialization of object variant (case object) to/from SSZ Union.
- int -> int64 fix in hashTreeRootCached
This updates `nim-confutils` to
`6a56d01381f434d5fbcc61b6e497b9409155bcbc`.
Notable changes:
- feature: separator text when displaying help
- feature: multiple lines long description
- feature: add ignore property in addition to hidden
- add compile time check to detect duplicate abbr and duplicate name
This updates `nim-eth` to `5655bd035cfd7319c6f2e60b7fdefef65a057939`.
Notable changes:
- db: Allow Sqlite keystores to be used in read-only mode
- net: avoid allocation in hash(ValidIpAddress)
- net: Remove hashData usage on objects
- p2p: reject WHOAREYOU packets with non-empty message
- p2p: Adjust logging when node is not reachable but enrAutoUpdate is on
- p2p: Allow a node to self resolve
- p2p: Fix logDistance for BE arch and remove toBytes for NodeId
- p2p: Export discovery routing table and its buckets nodes
- ssz: remove outdated and incorrect SSZ code
- utp: Various updates and fixes
* Add some indicators to help fixing issue.
* Bump presto to help debugging.
* Fix compilation problems in presto.
* Fix SIGSEGV.
* Bump latest changes in chronos and presto.
Fix rare cases in validator_client.
* Use proper commits for chronos and presto.
* Logging and startup improvements
Color support for released binaries!
* startup scripts no longer log to file by default - this only affects
source builds - released binaries don't support file logging
* add --log-stdout option to control logging to stdout (colors, json)
* detect tty:s vs redirected logs and log accordingly
* add option to disable log colors at runtime
* simplify several "common" logs, showing the most important information
earlier and more clearly
* remove line numbers / file information / tid - these take up space and
are of little use to end users
* still enabled in debug builds and tools
* remove `testnet_servers_image` compile-time option
* server images, released binaries and compile-from-source now offer
the same behaviour and features
* fixes https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/issues/2326
