Whether new blocks/attestations/etc are produced internally or received
via REST, their journey through the node is the same - to ensure that
they get the same treatment (logging, metrics, processing), this PR
moves the routing to a dedicated module and fixes several small
differences that existed before.
* `xxxValidator` -> `processMessageName` - the processor also was adding
messages to pools, so we want the name to reflect that action
* add missing "sent" metrics for some messages
* document ignore policy better - already-seen messages are not actaully
rebroadcast by libp2p
* skip redundant signature checks for internal validators consistently
* Initial commit
* Make `events` API spec compliant.
* Add `Eth-Consensus-Version` in responses.
* Bump chronos to get redirect with headers working.
* Add `is_optimistic` field and handling to syncing RestSyncInfo.
* adopt LC REST API with v0 suffix (without proofs)
Adopts the light client data REST API used by Lodestar as defined in
https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/181 with a v0 suffix.
Requests:
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/bootstrap/{block_root}`
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/updates?start_period={start_period}&count={count}`
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/finality_update`
- `/eth/v0/beacon/light_client/optimistic_update`
HTTP Server-Sent Events (SSE):
- `light_client_finality_update_v0`
- `light_client_optimistic_update_v0`
More work is needed to adopt the proofs endpoint, it is not included.
* initialize event queues
* register event topics
When launched with `--light-client-enable` the latest blocks are fetched
and optimistic candidate blocks are passed to a callback (log for now).
This helps accelerate syncing in the future (optimistic sync).
Adds a `LightClient` instance to the beacon node as preparation to
accelerate syncing in the future (optimistic sync).
- `--light-client-enable` turns on the feature
- `--light-client-trusted-block-root` configures block to start from
If no block root is configured, light client tracks DAG `finalizedHead`.
Introduces a new library for syncing using libp2p based light client
sync protocol, and adds a new `nimbus_light_client` executable that uses
this library for syncing. The new executable emits log messages when
new beacon block headers are received, and is integrated into testing.
* remove deprecated JSON-RPC server
* keep the command-line options around as no-ops, temporarily
* service -> server; JSON-RPC is still used elsewhere
Incorporates the latest changes to the light client sync protocol based
on Devconnect AMS feedback. Note that this breaks compatibility with the
previous prototype, due to changes to data structures and endpoints.
See https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2802
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.
These use a separate flow, and were previously only registered from the
network
* don't log successes in totals mode (TMI)
* remove `attestation-sent` event which is unused
Backfilling is the process of downloading historical blocks via P2P that
are required to fulfill `GetBlocksByRange` duties - this happens during
both trusted node and finalized checkpoint syncs.
In particular, backfilling happens after syncing to head, such that
attestation work can start as soon as possible.
* Fix SyncQueue initialization procedure.
Remove usage of `awaitne`.
Add cancellation support.
Remove unneeded `sleepAsync()` if peer's head is older than needed.
Add `direction` field to all logs.
Fix syncmanager wedge issue.
Add proper resource cleaning procedure on backward sync finish.

* 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
Validator monitoring based on and mostly compatible with the
implementation in Lighthouse - tracks additional logs and metrics for
specified validators so as to stay on top on performance.
The implementation works more or less the following way:
* Validator pubkeys are singled out for monitoring - these can be
running on the node or not
* For every action that the validator takes, we record steps in the
process such as messages being seen on the network or published in the
API
* When the dust settles at the end of an epoch, we report the
information from one epoch before that, which coincides with the
balances being updated - this is a tradeoff between being correct
(waiting for finalization) and providing relevant information in a
timely manner)
* move quarantine outside of chaindag
The quarantine has been part of the ChainDAG for the longest time, but
this design has a few issues:
* the function in which blocks are verified and added to the dag becomes
reentrant and therefore difficult to reason about - we're currently
using a stateful flag to work around it
* quarantined blocks bypass the processing queue leading to a processing
stampede
* the quarantine flow is unsuitable for orphaned attestations - these
should also should be quarantined eventually
Instead of processing the quarantine inside ChainDAG, this PR moves
re-queueing to `block_processor` which already is responsible for
dealing with follow-up work when a block is added to the dag
This sets the stage for keeping attestations in the quarantine as well.
Also:
* make `BlockError` `{.pure.}`
* avoid use of `ValidationResult` in block clearance (that's for gossip)
* Add exponential rewind on MissingParent.
* Try to avoid peers which are useless for syncing.
Fix forward sync restart at proper point.
Fix getLocalWallSlot() to not return slots from the future.
* Fix incorrect logs.
* Fix logging.
Enable peer's status messages log on DEBUG level.
* Fix watch task to monitor operation progress, but not local head progress.
* Add more logging information.
Remove recurring failures detection mechanism.
* Concentrate all sensitive writeFile/createPath calls in one place.
Fix eth2_network_simulation for Windows.
* Remove artifacts.
* fix import

* Fix continuous sync queue rewinds on slow PCs.
Fix recurring disconnects on low peer score.
* Calculate average syncing speed, not the current one.
Move speed calculation to different task.
* Address review comments.
Calculating rewards/penalties is slow due to how we compute sets of
attestations validators then use the sets for inclusion checks, to see
who attested. The dominant function during validated block processing /
epoch processing is hash set building and lookup.
This PR inverts the flow by removing the sets and creating a single
large validator status list, then applying all relevant state
attestations, then updating rewards and penalties.
This provides a 10x speedup to epoch processing which in turn speeds up
both empty slot and block processing - for example, on startup, we
replay all non-finalized blocks to prime fork choice - the same when
validating attestations or replaying states on reorg.
