remove unused imports in tests/ (#3713) 2022-06-07 17:05:06 +00:00

move dependent root computations to `BeaconState` / `EpochRef` (#3478)
* 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".

relax `BlockRef` database assumptions (#3472)
* remove `getForkedBlock(BlockRef)` which assumes block data exists but
doesn't support archive/backfilled blocks
* fix REST `/eth/v1/beacon/headers` request not returning
archive/backfilled blocks
* avoid re-encoding in REST block SSZ requests (using `getBlockSSZ`)

time: spring cleaning (#3262)
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.

REST cleanups (#3255)
* REST cleanups

* reject out-of-range committee requests
* 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

Fix missing checkpoint states` (#3225)
With the right sequence of events (for example a REST request or a
validation), it can happen that the first traversal across a state
checkpoint boundary is done without storing that state on disk - this
causes problens when replaying states, because now states may be missing
from the database.

Here, we simply avoid using the caches when advancing a state that will
go into the database, ensuring that the information lost during caching
always is permanently stored.

* fix recursion bug in `isProposed`

BlockId reform (#3176)
* BlockId reform

Introduce `BlockId` that helps track a root/slot pair - this prepares
the codebase for backfilling and handling out-of-dag blocks

* move block dag code to separate module
* fix finalised state root in REST event stream
* fix finalised head computation on head update, when starting from
checkpoint
* clean up chaindag init
* revert `epochAncestor` change in introduced in #3144 that would return
an epoch ancestor from the canoncial history instead of the given
history, causing `EpochRef` keys to point to the wrong block
