We have several modules that import `nim-eth` for the sole purpose of
its `keys.newRng` function. This function is meanwhile a simple wrapper
around `nim-bearssl`'s `HmacDrbgContext.new()`, so the import doesn't
really serve a use anymore. Replace `keys.newRng` with the direct call
to reduce `nim-eth` imports.
`produceSyncAggregate` is called in new slot when block is produced,
while the other functions in `sync_committee_msg_pool` are called in
previous slot. So, need to subtract 1 slot when producing sync aggregate
to accept the signatures using the old digest during fork transition.
`SyncCommitteeMsgPool` grouped messages by their `beacon_block_root`.
This is problematic around sync committee period boundaries and forks.
Around sync committee period boundaries, members from both the current
and next sync committee may sign the same `beacon_block_root`; mixing
the signatures from both committees together is a mistake. Likewise,
around fork transitions, the `signing_root` changes, so those messages
also need to be segregated.
* correctly report ignored contributions in metrics
* avoid counting subset contributions in vmon (bring in line with
attestation aggregates)
* avoid signature checks for subset attestations
A being a non-strict subset is a sufficient condition to ignore.
Some upstream repos still need fixes, but this gets us close enough that
style hints can be enabled by default.
In general, "canonical" spellings are preferred even if they violate
nep-1 - this applies in particular to spec-related stuff like
`genesis_validators_root` which appears throughout the codebase.
* batch-verify sync messages for a small perf boost
Generally reuses the same structure as attestation and aggregate
verification
* normalize `signatures` and `signature_batch` to use the same pattern
of verification
* normalize parameter names, order etc for signature stuff in general
* avoid calling `blsSign` directly - instead, go through `signatures`
consistently
Renames and cleanups split out from the validator monitoring branch, so
as to reduce conflict area vs other PR:s
* add constants for expected message timing
* name validators after the messages they validate, mostly, to make
grepping easier
* unify field naming of EpochInfo across forks to make cross-fork code
easier
* `SyncCommitteeIndex` -> `SyncSubcommitteeIndex`
* `syncCommitteePeriod` -> `sync_committee_period` (spec spelling)
* tighten period comparisons
* fix assert when validating committee message with non-altair state in
REST api
In tests, the private key was put into the validator deposit's withdraw
credentials so that it can be recovered later. This leads to problems
when creating the validators through other means that do not put the key
there. In general, mock private keys only depend on the validator index,
though, and because it is clear what the index of a validator is, it is
not actually needed to put the key into the credentials.
