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
Other fixes:
* Fix bit rot in the `make prater-dev-deposit` target.
* Correct content-type in the responses of the Nimbus signing node
* Invalid JSON payload was being sent in the web3signer requests
Updated outdated presets / configs / REST config to v1.1.10 specs.
- `TERMINAL_BLOCK_HASH_ACTIVATION_EPOCH` and `PROPOSER_SCORE_BOOST` are
not yet used in `eth2-networks`, added configurability as TODOs.
- `MIN_ANCHOR_POW_BLOCK_DIFFICULTY` is no longer needed, put on ignore
list as some Altair devnets still reference it.
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.
* clean up / document init
* drop `immutable_validators` data (pre-altair)
* document versions where data is first added
* avoid needlessly loading genesis block data on startup
* add a few more internal database consistency checks
* remove duplicate state root lookup on state load
* comment
With these changes, we can backfill about 400-500 slots/sec, which means
a full backfill of mainnet takes about 2-3h.
However, the CPU is not saturated - neither in server nor in client
meaning that somewhere, there's an artificial inefficiency in the
communication - 16 parallel downloads *should* saturate the CPU.
One plasible cause would be "too many async event loop iterations" per
block request, which would introduce multiple "sleep-like" delays along
the way.
I can push the speed up to 800 slots/sec by increasing parallel
downloads even further, but going after the root cause of the slowness
would be better.
* avoid some unnecessary block copies
* double parallel requests
* Initial commit.
* Fix current test suite.
* Fix keymanager api test.
* Fix wss_sim.
* Add more keystore_management tests.
* Recover deleted isEmptyDir().
* Add `HttpHostUri` distinct type.
Move keymanager calls away from rest_beacon_calls to rest_keymanager_calls.
Add REST serialization of RemoteKeystore and Keystore object.
Add tests for Remote Keystore management API.
Add tests for Keystore management API (Add keystore).
Fix serialzation issues.
* Fix test to use HttpHostUri instead of Uri.
* Add links to specification in comments.
* Remove debugging echoes.
Using the wrong type here causes requests to fail due to the overly
zealous parameter validation - the failure is harmless in the current
duty subscription model, but would have caused more serious failures
down the line.
* Trusted node sync
Trusted node sync, aka checkpoint sync, allows syncing tyhe chain from a
trusted node instead of relying on a full sync from genesis.
Features include:
* sync from any slot, including the latest finalized slot
* backfill blocks either from the REST api (default) or p2p (#3263)
Future improvements:
* top up blocks between head in database and some other node - this
makes for an efficient backup tool
* recreate historical state to enable historical queries
* fixes
* load genesis from network metadata
* check checkpoint block root against state
* fix invalid block root in rest json decoding
* odds and ends
* retry looking for epoch-boundary checkpoint blocks
* Harden CommitteeIndex, SubnetId, SyncSubcommitteeIndex
Harden the use of `CommitteeIndex` et al to prevent future issues by
using a distinct type, then validating before use in several cases -
datatypes in spec are kept simple though so that invalid data still can
be read.
* fix invalid epoch used in REST
`/eth/v1/beacon/states/{state_id}/committees` committee length (could
return invalid data)
* normalize some variable names
* normalize committee index loops
* fix `RestAttesterDuty` to use `uint64` for `validator_committee_index`
* validate `CommitteeIndex` on ingress in REST API
* update rest rules with stricter parsing
* better REST serializers
* save lots of memory by not using `zip` ...at least a few bytes!
* 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

* support downloading blocks / states via JSON in addition to SSZ -
slow, but needed for infura support - SSZ is still used when server
supports it
* use common forked block/state reader in REST API
* fix stack overflows in REST JSON decoder
* fix invalid serialization of `justification_bits` in
`/eth/v1/debug/beacon/states` and `/eth/v2/debug/beacon/states`
* fix REST client to use `/eth/...` instead of `/api/eth/...`, update
"default" urls to expose REST api via `/eth` as well as this is what the
standard says - `/api` was added early on based on an example "base url"
in the spec that has been removed since
* expose Nimbus REST extensions via `/nimbus` in addition to
`/api/nimbus` to stay consistent with `/eth`
* fix invalid state root when reading states via REST
* fix recursive imports in `spec/ssz_codec`
* remove usages of `serialization.useCustomSerialization` - fickle
* Fix REST some rest call signatures and implement a simple API benchmark tool
* Implement #3129 (Optimized history traversals in the REST API)
Other notable changes:
The `updateStateData` procedure in the `blockchain_dag.nim` module is
optimized to not rewind down to the last snapshot state saved in the
database if the supplied input state can be used as a starting point
instead.
* Disallow await in withStateForBlockSlot
* 3x speedup in snappy compression
oh, the wonders of `copyMem` in `endians2` - speeds up all kinds of
operations like database stores, sending gossip etc.
* endian usage fixes
This PR fixes two issues with block publishing:
* Gossip-valid blocks are published before integrating them into the
chain, giving broadcasting a head start, both for rest block and
* Outright invalid blocks from the API that could lead to the descoring
of the node are no longer broadcast
Bonus:
* remove undocumented and duplicated `post_v1_validator_block` JSON-RPC
call
* Support starting from altair
* hide `finalized-checkpoint-` - they are incomplete and usage may cause
crashes
* remove genesis detection code (broken, obsolete)
* enable starting ChainDAG from altair checkpoints - this is a
prerequisite for checkpoint sync (TODO: backfill)
* tighten checkpoint state conditions
* show error when starting from checkpoint with existing database (not
supported)
* print rest-compatible JSON in ncli/state_sim
* altair/merge support in ncli
* more altair/merge support in ncli_db
* pre-load header to speed up loading
* fix forked block decoding
* Address review comments in #3057
* reorder imports in rest_utils
maybe this will help with the mysterious serialization issues

According to the spec, this call should return the positions of
the specified validators within the sync committee. The existing
code was instead returning the indices of the sync sub-committees
where the validator is a member.
* fix stack overflow crash in REST/debug/getStateV2
* introduce `ForkyXxx` for generic type matching of `Xxx` across
branches (SomeHashedBeaconState -> ForkyHashedBeaconState et al) -
`Some` is already used for other types of type classes
* consolidate function naming in BeaconChainDB, use some generics
* import `forks.nim` from other spec modules and move `Forked*` helpers
around to resolve circular imports
* remove `ForkedBeaconState`, use `ForkedHashedBeaconState` throughout
(less data shuffling between the types)
* fix several cases of states being stored on stack in tests, causing
random failures on some platforms
* remove reading json support from ncli - this should be ported to the
rest json reading instead (doesn't currently work because stack sizes)
The sync committee period used to be a plain `uint64`. With the light
client sync relying more heavily on them, it makes sense to introduce
a proper type for them, similar to how they are already used for `Slot`
and `Epoch`. This introduces such a `SyncCommitteePeriod` type.
Furthermore, some usage code dealing with those periods is cleaned up.
So far, the REST config response did not include all spec constants.
The spec for `/eth/v1/config/spec` defines that the response should
include constants for all hard forks known by the beacon node. This
patch extends the corresponding response to include more constants.
* Add `child_id` field.
* Fix json-rpc api call and bump chronos.
* Bump chronos master and fix compilation warnings.
* One more bump of `chronos`.
* add random import
* export rest_utils a bit more

The validator client was only able to connect to beacon nodes exposing
the exact same set of spec constants that are locally known via their
config/spec REST API. However, that set of spec constants is dynamic.
As the validator client only requires a subset of relevant constants,
this may lead to compatible specs being rejected. This patch widens the
allowed specs by only verifying that the required set of constants are
present in the spec response, ignoring any spec constants that are not
locally known, and ignoring missing spec constants that are locally
known but not included by the remote beacon node when not relevant for
operation of the validator client.
* `SyncCommitteeIndex` -> `SyncSubcommitteeIndex`
* `syncCommitteePeriod` -> `sync_committee_period` (spec spelling)
* tighten period comparisons
* fix assert when validating committee message with non-altair state in
REST api
