* make the validating guide self-contained
Instead of having links to the three separate how-to guides,
now everything is under one umbrella.
* fix all now-broken links

We have several modules that import `nim-eth` for the sole purpose of
its `keys.newRng` function. This function is meanwhile a simple wrapper
around `nim-bearssl`'s `HmacDrbgContext.new()`, so the import doesn't
really serve a use anymore. Replace `keys.newRng` with the direct call
to reduce `nim-eth` imports.
* bump `nim-zlib` to `f34ca261efd90f118dc1647beefd2f7a69b05d93`
- ignore *.exe
- nim 1.6 adjustment
- update github action to v3
- use Nim 2.0 in CI
- test both refc and ORC in post-1.6 Nim versions
- remove Nim 1.2 and 1.4 support
* bump `nim-websock` for compatibility
`nim-websock` `fea05cde8b123b38d1a0a8524b77efbc84daa848` is needed
- reduce compiler warnings
- readFieldIMPL workaround when orc enabled
- remove nimble.lock
- remove nim 1.2 and nim 1.4 from ci
- remove Defect raises from makeFieldReadersTable
- another attempt to reduce compiler warnings
- More fix to exception tracking and generic_suite
- bump version to 0.2.0
- avoid implicit synthesis of `CaseTransition`
- make nimble file consistent with test matrix
- workaround for `NimYAML` issue
* require sync committee supermajority in CI
To better catch problems with sync committee messages in CI, extend
local testnet simulation to also verify that each block is signed
by a supermajority of the sync committee.
Requires #5083 and #5084
* lint
`produceSyncAggregate` is called in new slot when block is produced,
while the other functions in `sync_committee_msg_pool` are called in
previous slot. So, need to subtract 1 slot when producing sync aggregate
to accept the signatures using the old digest during fork transition.
Override default Json parsing for keystore case objects to avoid
`CaseTransition` logic to be emitted. When parsing the discriminator,
reinitialize the entire object instead of implicitly changing it,
to avoid UB and also possible oversights when extending the object.
See https://github.com/status-im/nim-serialization/pull/59
Before assigning to `genesisData` or returning `cfg`, have to check that
metadata is not `incompatible` to avoid `ProveField` warning.
The way how we use it was already correct (`incompatible` unreachable).
Use `case` syntax to silence the warning, and add comments referring to
the existing checks that make `incompatible` unreachable.
* ensure sync duties for next epoch are registered in time
For attestations, VC queries duties for current and next epoch.
For sync messages, VC queries for current and next period (if soon).
This means that for sync messages we don't actually have the duties for
next epoch in all situations, leading to situation where VC may miss
sync duties in the final slot of an epoch when using. As duties remain
same within a sync committee period, simply copy them over to next epoch
to avoid this situation without adding network latency.
* Update beacon_chain/validator_client/duties_service.nim

VC currently misses sync committee duties for first slot of most epochs
because the 1 slot offset is not taken into account. Duties for the next
slot must be used during any given current slot. We use the correct slot
for processing the duty, but do not use the correct slot for fetching.
`nim-serialization` is tagged with `{.raises:[SerializationError].}` so
it is no longer sufficient to catch `SszError` in some situations.
`SszError` inherits from `SerializationError`, so broadening the caught
exception types can be done now, to enable bumping `nim-serialization`.
https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/5043#issuecomment-1584227993#5061 is also needed to bump `nim-serialization`.
Cleanup for `ProveField` warnings in `keystore` module.
Note that `ProveField` is disabled by default in makefile, but sometimes
these pop up when doing a regular `nim c`, and cleaning these may allow
enabling the warning in some future.
* split file loading from parsing in helpers
In `readSszForkedHashedBeaconState` and `readRuntimeConfig`, split the
part that loads the file from the part that parses the file. The parsing
portion can be reused with that, e.g., when loading from the network.
* add missing export marker
* Refactor api.nim to provide more informative failure reasons.
Distinct between unexpected data and unexpected code.
Deprecate Option[T] usage.
* Fix 400 for produceBlindedBlock().
Get proper string conversion for strategy.
* Fix SSZ encoded versions of ProduceBlockResponseV2, ProduceBlockResponseV2 can be received and decoded.
Fix done() warnings.
Bump presto.
* Fix compilation error with new presto.
Use TcpNoDelay option for Web3Signer.
* Fix produceBlockV2() should provide SSZ responses too.
* Address block encoding issue.
* Fix signing test.
* Bump presto.
* Address review comments.
It occurs sometimes that a submodule is bumped to a PR commit instead of
the corresponding canonical branch (as registered in `.gitmodules`).
Because we typically use `squash`, that PR commit can subsequently
become unreachable, randomly breaking the build of `nimbus-eth2`.
Prevent these accidents by only allowing submodule bumps to commits
on the branch registered in `.gitmodules`. On private branches, simply
update `.gitmodules` to match the personal dev branch.
Use separate functions per format when parsing LC data from REST.
This allows to process events from the eventstream more directly,
as they are always JSON not SSZ. And also makes the code cleaner.
Assigning to fields of `var` case objects emits `ProveField` warnings.
We disable them in `make` based builds but they may pop up when building
manually with `nim c`. Suppress them for the `keyGen` function, as we
assign to `result.value` separately from `result.ok` to avoid copying.
* `ProveField` cleanups in `forks`
Some more cleanup for `ProveField` warnings in `forks` module.
Note that `ProveField` is disabled by default in makefile, but sometimes
these pop up when doing a regular `nim c`, and cleaning these may allow
enabling the warning in some future.
* use syntax that works if passed to multiple args of call
