* fix warnings by switching from deprecated chronos API addTimer(...) to setTimer(...) and removing especially some unnecessary chronicles and extras imports from test suite modules
* update a couple v0.10.1 spec references to v0.11.1
* crypto: cleanup
* fix several Defect-on-user-input
* make crypto interface more similar to secp
* use `crypto.nim` in all of nbc
* digest: raises
* fix
* vendor
* remove all but one UnusedImport warning
* bump a few more spec version references from v0.10.1 to v0.11.1
* more v0.10.1 spec reference updates/removals
* yet more v0.10.1 spec reference updates
* refactor and fix merkle proof construction in test suite and thereby remove most remaining skipMerkleValidation flags, now unnecessary
* a few non-semantic comment update/removals
* initial attestation aggregation
* fix usage of committee index, vs index in committee; uniformly set trailing/following distance; document how the only-broadcast-if mechanism works better and what aggregation already happens, not otherwise sufficiently clear; use correct BlockSlot across epoch boundaries
* address inconsistent notion of which slot in past to target for aggregate broadcast; follow 0.11.x aggregate broadcast p2p interface topic
* Fix get_slot_signature(...) call after get_domain(...) change required genesis_validators_root
* mark all spec references which aren't dealt with in other PRs as v0.11.1
* update two more spec refs to v0.11.1
* 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
* complete (except for get_domain(...)) 0.11.0 beacon chain spec update
* mark compute_start_slot_at_epoch(...), is_active_validator(...), compute_signing_root(...), and get_seed(...) as 0.11.0
* Initial implementation of runtime bls skipping.
Add libnfuzz skipBLSValidation handling, check that it propagates.
* Rename skipBLSValidation -> skipBlsValidation, start skipStateRootValidation
* Replace skipValidation flags with more granular flags.
Also added skipBlockParentRootValidation flag
Mainly replaced with skipBlsValidation but also StateRoot or
BlockParentRootValidation flags where appropriate.
* Adjust interop test to pass when skipping merkle validation.
* Stop skipping validation for mainchain_monitor.
* Remove comment.
* Also skipMerkleValidation for test_beacon_chain_db.
* beacon node code cleanup
* rudimentary error checking on mainnet monitor
* start client even when sending deposit
* work around missing block number exception
* connect to testnet with web3 url
* pretty-print digests in json
* update to 0.10.1
* SSZ Generic and nbench uses the v0.10.1 fixtures
* Tests + spec links: v0.10.0 -> v0.10.1
* Add v0.10.1 TODO in get_latest_attesting_balance (forkchoice)
* SSZ Bytes are now ByteList
* Remove nim-result submodules that was leftover/added by mistake in the branch
The loader has been tested with the presets published by Lighthouse.
You can try connecting to one of their testnets by running:
cd nim-beacon-chain
./connect-to-testnet lighthouse/testnet0
* simplify data storage to key-value, tries are not relevant for NBC
* locked-down version of lmdb dependency
* easier to build / maintain on various platforms
* nbench PoC
* Remove the yaml files from the example scenarios
* update README with current status
* Add an alternative implementation that uses defer
* Forgot to add the old proc body
* slots-processing
* allow benching state_transition failures
* Add Attestations processing (workaround confutils bug:
- https://github.com/status-im/nim-confutils/issues/10
- https://github.com/status-im/nim-confutils/issues/11
- https://github.com/status-im/nim-confutils/issues/12
* Add CLI command in the readme
* Filter report and add notes about CPU cycles
* Report averages
* Add debugecho style time/cycle print
* Report when we skip BLS and state root verification
* Update to 0.9.3
* Generalize scenario parsing
* Support all block processing scenarios
* parallel bench runner PoC
* gitBetter load issues reporting (the load issues were invalid signature and expected to fail)
