When BN clock is out of sync, VC sets BN status to `BrokenClock`. It is
only reset to `Offline` after restoring time sync. However, if VC fails
encounters an error while checking time, Nimbus extensions are assumed
to be unavailable and the BN is no longer checked for having a synced
clock. This means it is never reset back to `Offline` if errors start
occurring _after_ BN is already set to `BrokenClock`. This could be
because BN is changed from Nimbus to an alternative implementation,
or due to intermittent connection issues.
Ensure that BN status is reset back to `Offline` when Nimbus extensions
are disabled to ensure eventual connection recovery.

#5773 removed catching up on validator duties after lag. The `curSlot`
variable that was used originally to track catch-up progress no longer
has a use and is also no longer properly updated. Remove it.
If the initial state replays cover the finalized head, import matching
`LightClientBootstrap` into database.
This also addresses this error when light client requests bootstrap from
the genesis slot on networks that launch with Altair enabled.
```

```
Avoid marking blocks invalid when corresponding `blobSidecarsByRange`
returns an incomplete / incorrect response while syncing. The block
itself may still be valid in that scenario.
There are two conditions leading to `duplicate contribution` log.
Align the logs with the ones used for attestation aggregates,
so that the two conditions can be separated when reading logs.
The `blob_gas_used` field was not properly populated when constructing
Deneb light client data. This is due to #5026 not applying the change to
the entire codebase when the new field got introduced, and due to #5350
not catching that oversight in other modules. Also reviewed codebase and
discovered that `shortLog` for Deneb execution payloads has same bug.
To simplify supporting "am I ready for the fork" requests, add a simple
marker to the default status bar that indicates readiness by displaying
the fork's corresponding mascot. This is the same one that is also
displayed during the actual fork transition, so does not introduce
new dependencies. It also only shows in default status bar, not in logs.

In #5664, `nim-json-rpc` dependency got bumped which included a change
in behaviour when processing `null` data for heap allocated objects.
- https://github.com/status-im/nim-json-rpc/pull/176
Old behaviour was to raise an exception, while new behaviour is to set
the value to `nil` but treat it as a successful parse. Old exceptions
were similar to "Parameter [result] expected JObject but got JNull".
As part of the `nim-json-rpc` bump in #5664, `el_manager.nim` was not
updated to match the new behaviour, leading to crash whenever its logic
assumes that a successfully parsed web3 `BlockObject` (heap allocated)
may be assumed to be non-`nil`.
As a quick remedy, the `el_manager.nim` is updated to transform `nil`
responses for `BlockObject` into `ValueError`, allowing reuse of the
existing and tested exception based processing.

This requires all object types to be explicitly white-listed for

a number of similar mechanisms in eth2_rest_serialization can now
be removed.
As followup from #5654, ensure that we still keep the comment around
referring to the correct `forkchoiceUpdated` to use being driven by
the fork schedule.
* use `PayloadAttributesV3` in `nimbus_light_client` for Deneb
From Deneb onward, `forkchoiceUpdated` requires `PayloadAttributesV3`.
In `nimbus_light_client` we still used `PayloadAttributesV2`.
Also clean up two other locations that were already correctly using
`PayloadAttributesV3`, to reduce code duplication.
* fix letter case
* avoid potentially subtle template/function symbol name interactions
* use warn instead of error in getExecutionPayload codepath to ensure lack of ambiguity
When the BN exits after writing new `head` to database, but before
completing the `updateFinalizedBlocks` call, the database is slightly
inconsistent due to the partial write. We currently fail to start up
after that. Fix that by catching up on partial `updateFinalizedBlocks`
tasks on start up, and add a test for this edge case.
Simplify best `LightClientUpdate` collection by tracking only canonical
data instead of tracking the best update across all branches within the
sync committee period.
- https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3553
* reorder gossip validation checks
Doing the coverage check only after the corresponding committee index is
known allows optimization by early rejecting invalid data.
* use same helper for individual attestations as well
This PR brings down the time to send 100 attestations from ~1s to
~100ms, making it feasible to run 10k validators on a single node (which
regularly send 300 attestations / slot).
This is done by batching the slashing protection database write in a
single transaction thus avoiding a slow fsync for every signature -
effects will be more pronounced on slow drives.
The benefit applies both to beacon and client validators.
When creating new LC updates, information about the parent block's post
state must be available (cached), but information about current block's
post state is not yet required. Caching information about the current
block's post state can be delayed, simplifying the LC data collection
logic a bit and allowing more future flexibility with the cache design.
The proposed change ensures that VC validators are registered with the builder specified by the `--payload-builder-url` argument even if the beacon node has no attached validators. It also prevent such validators from being unintentionally registered with builders configured for specific attached validators by the keymanager api.
Per the current specs, the VC have no way to specify which builders the BN should use on a per-node basis, so for the time being we have to resort to using the BN fallback default builder URL for VC validators.
When new finality is reached without supermajority sync committee
support, trigger another event push on beacon-API and libp2p once
the finality gains supermajority support.

related to LC data collection with a generic logic that keeps working
when unrelated parts of Ethereum change.

Gnosis uses `MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOCK_REQUESTS` = 33024, but the computed

check to allow `MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOCK_REQUESTS` above the safe minimum
and honor `config.yaml` preferences for `MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOCK_REQUESTS`.
* make `MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOB_SIDECARS_REQUESTS` configurable
Gnosis uses custom `MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOB_SIDECARS_REQUESTS` to account
for the faster slot timing, so that blobs still remain available for
roughly the same amount of real time.

In `v1.4.0-alpha.0`, the blob index validation on gossip was changed to
use `compute_subnet_for_blob_sidecar` instead of having a separate topic
for each individual blob. We updated the spec reference in #5363 without
updating the code accordingly. Fixing this now, and also adding the new
`MAX_BLOBS_PER_BLOCK` check from `v1.4.0-beta.3` as it shares the theme.
`v1.4.0-beta.4` made the Gossip rules more strict and now requires to
ignore blobs from other branches if there are equivocating blocks.
Those blobs are only requestable via Req/Resp.
Fix regression from #4808 where blobs that are already known are issued
ACCEPT verdict, propagating them to peers over and over again.
`validateBlobSidecar` contains the correct IGNORE logic. Moved it above
the expensive checks to retain the performance of the check.
Capacity should be set to theoretical limit to ensure correct hash root.
Actual length may be shorter. Only use is `ExecutionPayloadForSigning`
so it doesn't matter yet in practice, but still worth fixing.
Using trusted node sync currently requires to run two commands -
first the `trustedNodeSync` command to initialize the database,
followed by the regular startup command to continue syncing.
The `trustedNodeSync` options are now also available during regular
startup, and are used when the database is empty to simplify setting up
a new Nimbus beacon node. This also aligns behaviour closer with other
Ethereum consensus implementations.
The new logic only applies if the database has not yet been initialized;
same as before. Also, the database needs to be removed under the same
conditions as before when a fresh sync is desired.
Move KZG trusted setup initialization before `BeaconNode.init` to avoid
edge case where network message is received and processed before crypto
library has been properly initialized. Followup from #4870.
To prepare for calling trusted node sync from the main Nimbus startup
logic, extract the trusted node sync trigger into a separate function.
Further allow passing a pre-opened database, as that will be needed to
check whether trusted node sync needs to be called during regular start.

The templates for `BeaconBlock`, `BeaconBlockBody` and `BeaconState`
are the only ones using a `macro` mechanism for code generation.
This prevents using the dot-syntax style `consensusFork.BeaconFoo`
in some situations, and also tends to trigger naming conflicts,
requiring the `Type` suffix. Furthermore, the `macro` only works
for types that are re-defined in every single `ConsensusFork`.
Replacing with the simpler but more verbose approach used for other
types for consistency and to avoid the downsides of the `macro`.
Furthermore, simplify `test_fixture_sanity_blocks` to use `forks` sugar.
Directly initialize `ForkedLightClientObj` instead of separately first
setting the `kind` (initializing everything to zero) and then assigning
the forky data after that.
Cleanup of `ProveField` warnings in `slashing_protection_common` 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.
As the `case` is over `a.kind`, `ProveField` warnings for `b` have to be
suppressed using `{.push.}` / `{.pop.}` for comparison operators.
Spurious `ProveField` warning can be avoided by using `case` instead of
`if` on `metadata.genesis.kind`. Also suppress `GlobalVar` hints when
`incbinEnabled` is used, which has global `let` definitions.
`Eth2NetworkMetadata` has an `incompatible` case to hold an error string
in case the loaded file is not compatible with the compile-time config.
The same can be modeled with a `Result[Eth2NetworkMetadata, string]` and
avoids followup checks for the `incompatible` case.
We use file descriptors for validators and sockets and might run out of
either on high-validator setups - increasing the limit here is harmless
and avoids a common limiting factor in setup

Currently, passing `0xc00000...` proof seems to pass `verifyProofs`.
Unsure why such a check is not necessary in spec, and also unsure
whether it is correct to reject proof at infinity, or if it could
occur, e.g., for a blob containing all 0 bytes. Weird overall...
* proper fix
We currently compute `justified_total_active_balance` inside
`calculateProposerBoost`, despite that sum already being known
in the `EpochRef` cache. Tracking `justified_total_active_balance`
whenever the justified checkpoint updates allows replacing the
repeated computation with a lookup, at minimal memory cost.
Currently we always request duties for current and next sync period.
As sync periods are quite long (~27 hrs on Mainnet), having access to
the duties so early doesn't help too much. To avoid running into errors
when the BN does not have the duties available around period boundary,
delay requesting them until the current period is close to finish.
`SYNC_COMMITTEE_SUBNET_COUNT` epochs are what the spec says should be
the lookahead timing of starting to subscribe to sync committee gossip.
Reusing the constant here for consistency.
This fixes these warning messages in the first slot of a new period.

```
Sync committee duties are performed by the sync committee as determined
by slot + 1. We did it correctly for individual messages, but selected
the incorrect participants for aggregate contributions for the very
first slot per period (roughly 1 per ~27 hrs on Mainnet). The faulty
participants selection code was originally introduced in #2925.
To allow testing https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/issues/3466
add support for selecting fork choice version at launch. This means we
can deploy a different logic when `DENEB_FORK_EPOCH != FAR_FUTURE_EPOCH`
that won't be used on Mainnet.
In `Slot end`, sync duties are reported one slot too late,
because sync committee duties are determined by the next slot
instead of the current one. Address that by taking account of this.

The `is_next_sync_committee_known` helper allocates a fresh
`SyncCommittee` in the caller and `nimZeroMem`s it on each use.
Use `static` to compare against a compile-time zeroed copy instead.
This also should help reduce stack size far enough to link with Nim 2.0.
Nim 2.0 gets confused when compiling `all_tests`:
```
Error: undeclared identifier: 'maxLen'
candidates (edit distance, scope distance); see '--spellSuggest':
(3, 7): 'Table'
(3, 7): 'len'
(3, 7): 'max'
```
Renaming the generic parameter `U` to `maxLen` fixes this somehow.
It also increases readability to use the same name consistently.
In Nim 2.0, attempting to use `Taskpool.spawn` inside `{.async.}` `proc`
leads to `Error: cannot generate destructor for generic type: Isolated`.
Add an intermediate wrapper `proc` that performs the `spawn` operation
to workaround the problem.
From old interop tests, a mock `eth1BlockHash` was defined in `base`.
To avoid accidental use by Nimbus, move to `tests` and rename it to
`mockEth1BlockHash`.
This PR renames the existing `validator_duties` to `beacon_validators`
and in doing so, names validators running inside the beacon node process
"beacon validators" while those running the VC can be referred to as
"client validators" to disambiguate the two.
The existing `validator_duties` instead takes on a new responsibility:
as a home for logic shared between beacon and client validators - ie
code that provides consistency in implementation and behavior between
the two modes of operation.
Not only does this simplify reasoning about where to put code -it also
reduces the number of dependencies the validator client has from ~5000
to ~3000 modules (!) according to `nim genDepend` significantly reducing
compile times.
- Remove unnecessary `Defect` references
- Remove spurious `SerializationError` references
- Remove duplicate `writeValue` template in `keystore.nim`;
same implementation already exists a bit further above in same file.
Add separate log topic for `block_processor` messages.
Topic named similar to the other `_processor` modules:
- `eth2_processor` --> `gossip_eth2`
- `light_client_processor` --> `gossip_lc`
- `optimistic_processor` --> `gossip_opt`
In #4465, a regression was introduced by deleting the periodic call to
`engine_exchangeTransitionConfiguration` in the Nimbus light client.
This led to the light client never treating the EL as online and,
subsequently, not sending `engine_newPayload` requests for new blocks.
Strangely, `engine_forkchoiceUpdated` requests still make it through :)
Geth still requires both `engine_newPayload` and `fcU` to be called.
By restoring the `exchangeTransitionConfiguration` loop, `newPayload`
requests are once more issued to the EL.
When a block is introduced to the system both via REST and gossip at the
same time, we will call `storeBlock` from two locations leading to a
dupliace check race condition as we wait for the EL.
This issue may manifest in particular when using an external block
builder that itself publishes the block onto the gossip network.
* refactor enqueue flow
* simplify calling `addBlock`
* complete request manager verifier future for blobless blocks
* re-verify parent conditions before adding block
among other things, it might have gone stale or finalized between one
call and the other
every attestation is processed with a new wall time so we end up
iterating over all attestations for every attestation we queue - this is
4% of cpu time on a subscribe-all-subnets node
* remove redundant zero checks - block root must be an existing block
and therefore cannot be zero
* simplify "hasn't-voted" check to root only (isZeroMemory is dubiously
implemented for objects)
* Add support for POST /eth/v2/beacon/blocks
* More descriptive errors
* Address review feedback
* Return 500 (not 400) for a missing implementation case
We know the aggregate publickey of a fully participating sync committee.
Because participation is typically very high (>95%), it is faster to
start from that aggregate publickey and subtract the individual keys of
non-participants, than summing up all the participating pubkeys.
To obtain the correct `transactions_root` and `withdrawals_root`,
it is necessary to process execution block header. Light client updates
don't contain the correct MPT roots.
Using `create` with objects containing managed objects is broken:
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/22341
Switch to a safer pattern based on `new+GC_ref`/`GC_unref` instead.
* async batch verification
When batch verification is done, the main thread is blocked reducing
concurrency.
With this PR, the new thread signalling primitive in chronos is used to
offload the full batch verification process to a separate thread
allowing the main threads to continue async operations while the other
threads verify signatures.
Similar to previous behavior, the number of ongoing batch verifications
is capped to prevent runaway resource usage.
In addition to the asynchronous processing, 3 addition changes help
drive throughput:
* A loop is used for batch accumulation: this prevents a stampede of
small batches in eager mode where both the eager and the scheduled batch
runner would pick batches off the queue, prematurely picking "fresh"
batches off the queue
* An additional small wait is introduced for small batches - this helps
create slightly larger batches which make better used of the increased
concurrency
* Up to 2 batches are scheduled to the threadpool during high pressure,
reducing startup latency for the threads
Together, these changes increase attestation verification throughput
under load up to 30%.
* fixup
* Update submodules
* fix blst build issues (and a PIC warning)
* bump

Split up the `ShufflingRef` acceleration logic into generically usable
parts and attester shuffling specific parts. The generic parts could be
used to accelerate other purposes, e.g., REST `/states/xxx/randao` API.
When producing a local block and `runProposalForkchoiceUpdated` was
missed, `getPayloadFromSingleEL` adds additional ~500ms of latency.
Quick fix to avoid missing blocks to that.
We currently call `onSlotEnd` whenever all in-BN validator duties are
completed. VC validator duties are not awaited. When `onSlotEnd` is
processed close to the slot start, a VC may therefore miss duties.
Adding a delay before `onSlotEnd` improves this situation.
The logic can be optimized further if `ActionTracker` would track
`knownValidators` from REST separately from in-process ones.
To enable additional use cases, e.g., `/states/###/randao` beacon API,
`ShufflingRef` acceleration logic needs to be able to operate on parts
of the DAG that do not have `BlockRef`. Changing `commonAncestor` to
act on `BlockId` instead of `BlockRef` is a step toward that and also
simplifies the logic some more.

Post-merge blocks contain all information to directly obtain RANDAO
without having to load any additional info. Take advantage of that to
further accelerate `ShufflingRef` computation. Note that it is still
necessary to verify that `blck` / `state` share a sufficiently recent
ancestor for the purpose of computing attester shufflings.

- old: 251.33s, 234.29s, 249.28s, 237.03s, 236.78s
Current RANDAO recovery logic is quite complex as it optimizes for the
minimum amount of database reads. Loading blocks isn't the bottleneck
though, so rather make the implementation more concise by avoiding the
complex strategy planning step. Note that this also prepares for an even
faster implementation for post-merge blocks in the future that extracts
RANDAO from `ExecutionPayload` directly if available, so even in cases
where efficiency is slightly lower, only historical data is affected.

* Perform block pre-check before validating execution
When syncing, blocks have not been gossip-validated and are therefore
prone to trivial faults like being known-unviable, duplicate or missing
their parent.
In addition, the duplicate-block check in BlockProcessor was not
considering the quarantine flow and would therefore cause
recently-quarantined blocks to be silenty dropped when their parent
appears delaying the sync end-game and thus causing longer startup
resync time.
This PR verifies trivial conditions before performing execution
validation thus avoiding duplicates and missing parents alike.
It also ensures that the fast-sync EL mode is used for finalized blocks
even if the EL is timing out / slow to respond - this allows the CL to
complete its sync faster and switch to "normal" lock-step at the head of
the chain more quickly, thus also allowing the EL to access the latest
consensensus information earlier.
* oops
* remove unused constant
When the requestmanager is busy fetching blocks, the queue might get
filled with multiple entries of the same root - since there is no
deduplication, requests containing the same root multiple times will be
sent out.
Also, because the items sit in the queue for a long time potentially,
the request might be stale by the time that the manager is ready with
the previous request.
This PR removes the queue and directly fetches the blocks to download
from the quarantine which solves both problems (the quarantine already
de-duplicates and is clean of stale information).
Removing the queue for blobs is left for a future PR.

The helper function to compute delay until next light client sync task
can be useful from more general purpose contexts. Move to helpers, and
change it to return `Duration` instead of `BeaconTime` for flexibility.
- When syncing `LightClientUpdatesByRange`, and peer replies with
fewer periods than requested, no need to delay next request.
- When `FinalityUpdate` / `OptimisticUpdate` sync fails,
no need to retry immediately.
The `UpdatesByRange` API takes `startPeriod / count`, but is internally
called by `Slice`. Move the logic that converts from the `Slice` to the
caller to reduce complexity inside the used `doRequest` function.
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.
* require sync committee supermajority in CI
To better catch problems with sync committee messages in CI, extend

`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.

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.

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`

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

* use syntax that works if passed to multiple args of call
When using trusted node sync with `--trusted-block-root`, the remote
server is only trusted for data availability, not for correctness.
As a downloaded genesis state cannot be validated for correctness,
require it to be passed via the network metadata `genesis.ssz` file
for `--trusted-block-root` mode. Network metadata is considered trusted
as it is provided by the user and not by the remote server.
Further adds a check for consistent `genesis_time` when using `StateId`
based trusted node sync. This is just a sanity check to avoid spreading
blatantly incorrect data, similar to existing `genesis_validators_root`
checks.

* also pack attestations where LMD vote is orphaned
When `attestation.data.beacon_block_root` gets orphaned, attestations
with a good `attestation.data.target.root` may still be valuable.
The LMD GHOST vote is not relevant for attestation rewards.
Switch to use the FFG vote (`attestation.data.target.root`) instead,
gossip validation ensures it is an ancestor of `beacon_block_root`.

When doing sync for blocks older than
MIN_EPOCHS_FOR_BLOB_SIDECARS_REQUESTS, we skip the blobs by range
request, but we then pass en empty blob sequence to
validation, which then fails.
To fix this: Use an Option[Blobsidecars] to allow expressing the
distinction between "empty blob sequence" and "blobs unavailable". Use
the latter for "old" blocks, and don't attempt to run blob validation.
`SyncCommitteeMsgPool` grouped messages by their `beacon_block_root`.
This is problematic around sync committee period boundaries and forks.
Around sync committee period boundaries, members from both the current
and next sync committee may sign the same `beacon_block_root`; mixing
the signatures from both committees together is a mistake. Likewise,
around fork transitions, the `signing_root` changes, so those messages
also need to be segregated.
The validator beacon APIs `getAttesterDuties`, `getProposerDuties`, and
`getSyncCommitteeDuties`, have reported the `execution_optimistic`
state for the current head block. This can lead to a race if duties are
requested around the slot start, if a new head block is currently being
processed by the EL, during which the BN head may be briefly optimistic.
`execution_optimistic` is documented in beacon APIs as:
> True if the response references an unverified execution payload.
> Optimistic information may be invalidated at a later time.
> If the field is not present, assume the False value.
As the duty endpoints reference the shuffling dependent root instead of
the currently selected head block, `execution_optimistic` is now fetched
based on that shuffling dependent block root. As this dependent block is
in the past it doesn't usually become optimistic when adding new blocks.
Note that the endpoints requested 4/8 seconds into the slot that perform
the actual duties instead of just querying for duty schedule, still
report `execution_optimistic` based on the BN head block.
When fetching historical `getSyncCommitteeDuties` for the very first
sync committee period, the case must be handled where Altair may not
have been scheduled on a sync committee period boundary.
When an uncached `ShufflingRef` is requested, we currently replay state
which can take several seconds. Acceleration is possible by:
1. Start from any state with locked-in `get_active_validator_indices`.
Any blocks / slots applied to such a state can only affect that
result for future epochs, so are viable for querying target epoch.
`compute_activation_exit_epoch(state.slot.epoch) > target.epoch`
2. Determine highest common ancestor among `state` and `target.blck`.
At the ancestor slot, same rules re `get_active_validator_indices`.
`compute_activation_exit_epoch(ancestorSlot.epoch) > target.epoch`
3. We now have a `state` that shares history with `target.blck` up
through a common ancestor slot. Any blocks / slots that the `state`
contains, which are not part of the `target.blck` history, affect
`get_active_validator_indices` at epochs _after_ `target.epoch`.
4. Select `state.randao_mixes[N]` that is closest to common ancestor.
Either direction is fine (above / below ancestor).
5. From that RANDAO mix, mix in / out all RANDAO reveals from blocks
in-between. This is just an XOR operation, so fully reversible.
`mix = mix xor SHA256(blck.message.body.randao_reveal)`
6. Compute the attester dependent slot from `target.epoch`.
`if epoch >= 2: (target.epoch - 1).start_slot - 1 else: GENESIS_SLOT`
7. Trace back from `target.blck` to the attester dependent slot.
We now have the destination for which we want to obtain RANDAO.
8. Mix in all RANDAO reveals from blocks up through the `dependentBlck`.
Same method, no special handling necessary for epoch transitions.
9. Combine `get_active_validator_indices` from `state` at `target.epoch`
with the recovered RANDAO value at `dependentBlck` to obtain the
requested shuffling, and construct the `ShufflingRef` without replay.

In `produceBlindedBlock`, we sent the `ForkedBlindedBeaconBlock` when

Note: We do not use SSZ format in our VC for this endpoint at this time,
which explains why we haven't noticed earlier.

When turning on pruning the first time the current pruning algorithm

The `SignedContributionAndProof: invalid contribution signature` check

To avoid failing CI, revert this isntance to a plain `errReject` until

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`.
Updates gossip validation spec references to v1.3.0 and fixes an

Note: Some test networks still define the constant, ignoring the config
constant for now until it is no longer used.
Only comment changes:
- Bump refs to final v1.3.0 spec
- Align documentation style in various `BeaconState` structures
- Add `justification_bits` / `historical_roots` comment from spec
- Remove `previous_justified_checkpoint` from non-phase0 (same as spec)
- Cleanup some `Modified` tags
Fail local testnets on any gossip REJECT, instead of just asserting some

https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/pull/2904#discussion_r719603935
Add compatibility with https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/290
to the beacon node. Behaviour when configured with multiple ELs is not
specified; intention suggests to indicate whether all ELs are offline.
When using trusted node sync with light client (`--trusted-block-root`),
the trust assumption on the server is reduced to solely be responsible
for data availability, but not data correctness. This means that we must
check block proposer signatures against the downloaded checkpoint, as
they are not covered by the block root.
Note that this lowers the backfill speed when using LC based CP sync
due to the extra checks, by about 60% for me.
Post-Capella, historical roots are computed from historical summaries
instead of being directly stored in the beacon state.
Slightly messy to pass both lists around - this is done to avoid
computing the historical root unnecessarily.
* low attestations during epoch should instafail in CI; dbg -> warn level on newPayload log
* improve newPayload warning message when no valid EL connected
* reduce potential spam; make log spelling more consistent; use fatal/quit
Post-Deneb, when the request manager receives a missing block from a
peer, it needs to check if the corresponding blobs are available, and
if so pass them along. If they aren't available, the newly-fetched
block must be put in blobless quarantine (while the blobs are
retrieved, coming in next commit).
The consensus-spec-tests already cover the scenarios of our custom test
runner, so the custom tests can be removed. Also cleans up unused config
flags and related unreachable logic.

The 'peek' name was incorrect as it was actually removing from the
table. It was consequently used incorrectly in block processing: the
blobless block wasn't returned to the table when it should be.
* Simplify block quarantine blobless
The quarantine blobless table was initially keyed off of (Eth2Digest,
ValidatorSig). This was modelled off the orphan table. The presence of
the signature in the key is necessary for orphans, because we can't
verify the signature for an orphan. That is not the case for a
blobless block, where the signature can be verified.
So this PR changes the blobless block table to be keyed off a
Eth2Digest only. This simplifies the retrieval and handling of
blobless blocks.
* review feedback
* allow trusted node sync based on LC trusted block root
Extends `trustedNodeSync` with a new `--trusted-block-root` option that
allows initializing a light client. No `--state-id` must be provided.
The beacon node will then use this light client to obtain the latest
finalized state from the remote server in a trust-minimized fashion.
Note that the provided `--trusted-block-root` should be somewhat recent,
and that security precautions such as comparing the state root against
block explorers is still recommended.
