This PR removes a few hundred thousand temporary seq allocations during
state transition - in particular, the flag seq was allocated per
validator while committees are computed per attestation.
We already updated the field order in the actual `ExecutionPayload`,
but in init code and tests / logs etc we still used the old order.
Update those occurrences to also match the field order in the struct.
Furthermore, add `excess_data_gas` to last entry in `test_eth1_monitor`.
* Local sim impovements
* Added support for running Capella and EIP-4844 simulations
by downloading the correct version of Geth.
* Added support for using Nimbus remote signer and Web3Signer.
Use 2 out of 3 threshold signing configuration in the mainnet
configuration and regular remote signing in the minimal one.
* The local testnet simulation can now use a payload builder.
This is currently not activated in CI due to lack of automated
procedures for installing third-party relays or builders.
You are adviced to use mergemock for now, but for most realistic
results, we can create a simple builder based on the nimbus-eth1
codebase that will be able to propose transactions from the regular
network mempool.
* Start the simulation from a merged state. This would allow us
to start removing pre-merge functionality such as the gossip
subsciption logic. The commit also removes the merge-forcing
hack installed after the TTD removal.
* Consolidate all the tools used in the local simulation into a
single `ncli_testnet` binary.
Other changes:
Renamed the `EIP_4844_FORK_*` config constants to `DENEB_FORK_*` as
this matches the latest spec and it's already used in the official
Sepolia config.
* 60% state replay speedup
* don't use HashList for epoch participation - in addition to the code
currently clearing the caches several times redundantly, clearing has to
be done each block nullifying the benefit (35%)
* introduce active balance cache - computing it is slow due to cache
unfriendliness in the random access pattern and bounds checking and we
do it for every block - this cache follows the same update pattern as
the active validator index cache (20%)
* avoid recomputing base reward several times per attestation (5%)
Applying 1024 blocks goes from 20s to ~8s on my laptop - these kinds of
requests happen on historical REST queries but also whenever there's a
reorg.
* fix test and diffs
This PR removes a bunch of code to make TNS aware of era files, avoiding
a duplicated backfill when era files are available.
* reuse chaindag for loading backfill state, replacing the TNS homebrew
* fix era block iteration to skip empty slots
* add tests for `can_advance_slots`
The justified and finalized `Checkpoint` are frequently passed around
together. This introduces a new `FinalityCheckpoint` data structure that
combines them into one.
Due to the large usage of this structure in fork choice, also took this
opportunity to update fork choice tests to the latest v1.2.0-rc.1 spec.
Many additional tests enabled, some need more work, e.g. EL mock blocks.
Also implemented `discard_equivocations` which was skipped in #3661,
and improved code reuse across fork choice logic while at it.
* SSZ `[]` -> `mitem`
* `[]` -> `item`
immutable access via mutable instance cannot rely on template
overloading, and `[]` cannot be a `func` because of special seq handling
in compiler.
* document static vs dynamic range checking requirements
* add `vindices` iterator to iterate over valid validator indices in a
state
* clean up spec comments in general
* fixup

Other changes:
* logtrace can now verify sync committee messages and contributions
* Many unnecessary use of pairs() have been removed for consistency
* Map 40x BN response codes to BeaconNodeStatus.Incompatible in the VC
The spec implicitly talks about the slot of a block in several places,
and keeping it readily available is useful in a number of context -
might as well put this implicitly refereneced helper in the spec code
directly
One more step on the journey to reduce `BlockRef` usage across the
codebase - this one gets rid of `StateData` whose job was to keep track
of which block was last assigned to a state - these duties have now been
taken over by `latest_block_root`, a fairly recent addition that
computes this block root from state data (at a small cost that should be
insignificant)
99% mechanical change.
* 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".
