remove attestation/aggregate queue (#2519)
With the introduction of batching and lazy attestation aggregation, it
no longer makes sense to enqueue attestations between the signature
check and adding them to the attestation pool - this only takes up
valuable CPU without any real benefit.

* add successfully validated attestations to attestion pool directly
* avoid copying participant list around for single-vote attestations,
pass single validator index instead
* release decompressed gossip memory earlier, specially during async
message validation
* use cooked signatures in a few more places to avoid reloads and errors
* remove some Defect-raising versions of signature-loading
* release decompressed data memory before validating message

Jacek Sieka 4ed2e34a9e Revamp attestation pool
This is a revamp of the attestation pool that cleans up several aspects
of attestation processing as the network grows larger and block space
becomes more precious.

The aim is to better exploit the divide between attestation subnets and
aggregations by keeping the two kinds separate until it's time to either
produce a block or aggregate. This means we're no longer eagerly
combining single-vote attestations, but rather wait until the last
moment, and then try to add singles to all aggregates, including those
coming from the network.

Importantly, the branch improves on poor aggregate quality and poor
attestation packing in cases where block space is running out.

A basic greed scoring mechanism is used to select attestations for
blocks - attestations are added based on how much many new votes they
bring to the table.

* Collect single-vote attestations separately and store these until it's
time to make aggregates
* Create aggregates based on single-vote attestations
* Select _best_ aggregate rather than _first_ aggregate when on
aggregation duty
* Top up all aggregates with singles when it's time make the attestation
cut, thus improving the chances of grabbing the best aggregates out
there
* Improve aggregation test coverage
* Improve bitseq operations
* Simplify aggregate signature creation
* Make attestation cache temporary instead of storing it in attestation
pool - most of the time, blocks are not being produced, no need to keep
the data around
* Remove redundant aggregate storage that was used only for RPC
* Use tables to avoid some linear seeks when looking up attestation data
* Fix long cleanup on large slot jumps
* Avoid some pointers
* Speed up iterating all attestations for a slot (fixes #2490)

performance fixes (#2259)
* 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.

avoid unnecessary seq allocations (#1573)

2020-08-27 08:32:51 +02:00
Jacek Sieka 46c94a18ba rework epoch cache referencing
* collect all epochrefs in specific blocks to make them easier to find
and to avoid lots of small seqs
* reuse validator key databases more aggressively by comparing keys
* make state cache available from within `withState`
* make epochRef available from within onBlockAdded callback
* integrate getEpochInfo into block resolution and epoch ref logic such
that epochrefs are created when blocks are added to pool or lazily when
needed by a getEpochRef
* fill state cache better from EpochRef, speeding up replay and
validation
* store epochRef in specific blocks to make them easier to find and
reuse
* fix database corruption when state is saved while replaying quarantine
* replay slots fully from block pool before processing state
* compare bls values more smartly
* store epoch state without block applied in database - it's recommended
to resync the node!

this branch will drastically speed up processing in times of long
non-finality, as well as cut memory usage by 10x during the recent
medalla madness.
