During sync, sometimes the same block gets encountered and added to
quarantine multiple times. If its parent is already known, quarantine
incorrectly registers it as missing, leading to re-download. This can
be fixed by registering the parent's deepest missing parent recursively.
Also increase the stickiness of `missing`. We only perform 4 attempts
within ~16 seconds before giving up. Very frequently, this is not enough
and there is no progress until sync manager kicks in even on holesky.
When restarting beacon node, orphaned blocks remain in the database but
on startup, only the canonical chain as selected by fork choice loads.
When a new block is discovered that builds on top of an orphaned block,
the orphaned block is re-downloaded using sync/request manager, despite
it already being present on disk. Such queries can be answered locally
to improve discovery speed of alternate forks.
During lag spike, e.g., from state replays, peer count can temporarily
drop significantly. Should not have to wait another 60 minutes in that
situation just to be back where one started.
The `clearanceState` points to the latest resolved block, regardless of
whether that block is canonical according to fork choice. If chain is
stalled and we want to prepare for resuming validator duties, we need
a recent state according to fork choice to avoid lag spikes and missing
slot timings.
Nimbus currently stops performing validator duties if the blockchain
does not progress for `node.config.syncHorizon` slots. This means that
the chain won't recover because no new blocks are proposed. To fix that,
continue performing validator duties if no progress is registered for a
long time, and none of our peers is indicating any progress.
#6087 introduced a subtle change to `nim-web3` resulting in `Gwei` to be
serialized differently than before. Using a `distinct` type for `Gwei`
improves type safety and avoids such problems in the future.
On Goerli there are some instances of long streaks of empty epochs due
to different branches being built in parallel. They sometimes lead to
`Request for pruned historical state` logs requiring a BN restart to
resolve. Avoid that by trying to restore states from the entire non-
finalized history, to avoid losing sync in such situtions.
When a config defines a different `INACTIVITY_SCORE_RECOVERY_RATE` than
the default, `process_inactivity_updates` uses an incorrect rate ever
since #2710 when `INACTIVITY_SCORE_RECOVERY_RATE` became configurable.
- default `MultiAddress` param for `newStandardSwitch` does not raise
- clean up triple lookup and avoid `KeyError` when adding muxer
- `{.async: (raises).}` for `relay/utils.nim`
- `{.async: (raises).}` annotations for `protocols/secure`
- avoid pointless exception raising in `dcutr/server`
When there are long periods of non-finality, `nodeIsViableForHead` has
been observed to consume significant time as it repeatedly walks the
non-finalized check graph as part of determining what heads are eligible
for fork choice. Caching the result resolves that.
Overall, it may still be better to prune fork choice more aggressively
when finality advances, to fully avoid the case specced out using the
linear scan. The current implementation is very close to spec, though,
so such a change should not be introduced without thorough testing.
The simple cache should allow significantly better performance on Goerli
while the network is still supported (Mid April).
In `block_dag` there is a max depth of 100 years configured to detect
internal inconsistencies, e.g., circular references. As `BlockRef` was
changed long ago to only reflect the non-finalized chain segment, the
theoretically supported max depth can be reduced and simplified.
We don't need the `cfg` right now, but it makes sense to have the object
passed to the clock so that the API doesn't break if we want to support
configurable `SECONDS_PER_SLOT`. As the `libnimbus_lc` library is not
yet widely used, better to add the argument now than later.
The `syncHorizon` describes the number of empty slots before the beacon
node considers itself to be out of sync. There are two places where we
currently set this to 50 slots, but it makes more sense to base it on
wall time, e.g., the 10 minutes that the default 50 are derived from.
