015ab7d0a7 Optimize validator duties (#2243)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #2052

## Proposed Changes

- Refactor the attester/proposer duties endpoints in the BN
    - Performance improvements
    - Fixes some potential inconsistencies with the dependent root fields.
    - Removes `http_api::beacon_proposer_cache` and just uses the one on the `BeaconChain` instead.
    - Move the code for the proposer/attester duties endpoints into separate files, for readability.
- Refactor the `DutiesService` in the VC
    - Required to reduce the delay on broadcasting new blocks.
    - Gets rid of the `ValidatorDuty` shim struct that came about when we adopted the standard API.
    - Separate block/attestation duty tasks so that they don't block each other when one is slow.
- In the VC, use `PublicKeyBytes` to represent validators instead of `PublicKey`. `PublicKey` is a legit crypto object whilst `PublicKeyBytes` is just a byte-array, it's much faster to clone/hash `PublicKeyBytes` and this change has had a significant impact on runtimes.
    - Unfortunately this has created lots of dust changes.
 - In the BN, store `PublicKeyBytes` in the `beacon_proposer_cache` and allow access to them. The HTTP API always sends `PublicKeyBytes` over the wire and the conversion from `PublicKey` -> `PublickeyBytes` is non-trivial, especially when queries have 100s/1000s of validators (like Pyrmont).
 - Add the `state_processing::state_advance` mod which dedups a lot of the "apply `n` skip slots to the state" code.
    - This also fixes a bug with some functions which were failing to include a state root as per [this comment](072695284f/consensus/state_processing/src/state_advance.rs (L69-L74)). I couldn't find any instance of this bug that resulted in anything more severe than keying a shuffling cache by the wrong block root.
 - Swap the VC block service to use `mpsc` from `tokio` instead of `futures`. This is consistent with the rest of the code base.
    
~~This PR *reduces* the size of the codebase 🎉~~ It *used* to reduce the size of the code base before I added more comments. 

## Observations on Prymont

- Proposer duties times down from peaks of 450ms to consistent <1ms.
- Current epoch attester duties times down from >1s peaks to a consistent 20-30ms.
- Block production down from +600ms to 100-200ms.

## Additional Info

- ~~Blocked on #2241~~
- ~~Blocked on #2234~~

## TODO

- [x] ~~Refactor this into some smaller PRs?~~ Leaving this as-is for now.
- [x] Address `per_slot_processing` roots.
- [x] Investigate slow next epoch times. Not getting added to cache on block processing?
- [x] Consider [this](072695284f/beacon_node/store/src/hot_cold_store.rs (L811-L812)) in the scenario of replacing the state roots

88cc222204 Advance state to next slot after importing block (#2174)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Add an optimization to perform `per_slot_processing` from the *leading-edge* of block processing to the *trailing-edge*. Ultimately, this allows us to import the block at slot `n` faster because we used the tail-end of slot `n - 1` to perform `per_slot_processing`.

Additionally, add a "block proposer cache" which allows us to cache the block proposer for some epoch. Since we're now doing trailing-edge `per_slot_processing`, we can prime this cache with the values for the next epoch before those blocks arrive (assuming those blocks don't have some weird forking).

There were several ancillary changes required to achieve this: 

- Remove the `state_root` field  of `BeaconSnapshot`, since there's no need to know it on a `pre_state` and in all other cases we can just read it from `block.state_root()`.
    - This caused some "dust" changes of `snapshot.beacon_state_root` to `snapshot.beacon_state_root()`, where the `BeaconSnapshot::beacon_state_root()` func just reads the state root from the block.
- Rename `types::ShuffingId` to `AttestationShufflingId`. I originally did this because I added a `ProposerShufflingId` struct which turned out to be not so useful. I thought this new name was more descriptive so I kept it.
- Address https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/pull/2196
- Add a debug log when we get a block with an unknown parent. There was previously no logging around this case.
- Add a function to `BeaconState` to compute all proposers for an epoch without re-computing the active indices for each slot.

## Additional Info

- ~~Blocked on #2173~~
- ~~Blocked on #2179~~ That PR was wrapped into this PR.
- There's potentially some places where we could avoid computing the proposer indices in `per_block_processing` but I haven't done this here. These would be an optimization beyond the issue at hand (improving block propagation times) and I think this PR is already doing enough. We can come back for that later.

## TODO

- [x] Tidy, improve comments.
- [x] ~~Try avoid computing proposer index in `per_block_processing`?~~

e20f64b21a Update to tokio 1.1 (#2172)
## Issue Addressed

resolves #2129
resolves #2099 
addresses some of #1712
unblocks #2076
unblocks #2153 

## Proposed Changes

- Updates all the dependencies mentioned in #2129, except for web3. They haven't merged their tokio 1.0 update because they are waiting on some dependencies of their own. Since we only use web3 in tests, I think updating it in a separate issue is fine. If they are able to merge soon though, I can update in this PR. 

- Updates `tokio_util` to 0.6.2 and `bytes` to 1.0.1.

- We haven't made a discv5 release since merging tokio 1.0 updates so I'm using a commit rather than release atm. **Edit:** I think we should merge an update of `tokio_util` to 0.6.2 into discv5 before this release because it has panic fixes in `DelayQueue`  --> PR in discv5:  https://github.com/sigp/discv5/pull/58

## Additional Info

tokio 1.0 changes that required some changes in lighthouse:

- `interval.next().await.is_some()` -> `interval.tick().await`
- `sleep` future is now `!Unpin` -> https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/3028
- `try_recv` has been temporarily removed from `mpsc` -> https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/3350
- stream features have moved to `tokio-stream` and `broadcast::Receiver::into_stream()` has been temporarily removed -> `https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/issues/2870
- I've copied over the `BroadcastStream` wrapper from this PR, but can update to use `tokio-stream` once it's merged https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/pull/3384

d8cda2d86e Fix new clippy lints (#2036)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Fixes new clippy lints in the whole project (mainly [manual_strip](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#manual_strip) and [unnecessary_lazy_evaluations](https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#unnecessary_lazy_evaluations)). Furthermore, removes `to_string()` calls on literals when used with the `?`-operator.

f157d61cc7 Address clippy lints, panic in ssz_derive on overflow (#1714)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Panic or return error if we overflow `usize` in SSZ decoding/encoding derive macros.
  - I claim that the panics can only be triggered by a faulty type definition in lighthouse, they cannot be triggered externally on a validly defined struct.
- Use `Ordering` instead of some `if` statements, as demanded by clippy.
- Remove some old clippy `allow` that seem to no longer be required.
- Add comments to interesting clippy statements that we're going to continue to ignore.
- Create #1713

703c33bdc7 Fix head tracker concurrency bugs (#1771)
## Issue Addressed

Closes #1557

## Proposed Changes

Modify the pruning algorithm so that it mutates the head-tracker _before_ committing the database transaction to disk, and _only if_ all the heads to be removed are still present in the head-tracker (i.e. no concurrent mutations).

In the process of writing and testing this I also had to make a few other changes:

* Use internal mutability for all `BeaconChainHarness` functions (namely the RNG and the graffiti), in order to enable parallel calls (see testing section below).
* Disable logging in harness tests unless the `test_logger` feature is turned on

And chose to make some clean-ups:

* Delete the `NullMigrator`
* Remove type-based configuration for the migrator in favour of runtime config (simpler, less duplicated code)
* Use the non-blocking migrator unless the blocking migrator is required. In the store tests we need the blocking migrator because some tests make asserts about the state of the DB after the migration has run.
* Rename `validators_keypairs` -> `validator_keypairs` in the `BeaconChainHarness`

## Testing

To confirm that the fix worked, I wrote a test using [Hiatus](https://crates.io/crates/hiatus), which can be found here:

https://github.com/michaelsproul/lighthouse/tree/hiatus-issue-1557

That test can't be merged because it inserts random breakpoints everywhere, but if you check out that branch you can run the test with:

```
$ cd beacon_node/beacon_chain
$ cargo test --release --test parallel_tests --features test_logger
```

It should pass, and the log output should show:

```
WARN Pruning deferred because of a concurrent mutation, message: this is expected only very rarely!
```

## Additional Info

This is a backwards-compatible change with no impact on consensus.

Weak subjectivity start from genesis (#1675)
This commit was edited by Paul H when rebasing from master to
v0.3.0-staging.

Solution 2 proposed here: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/1435#issuecomment-692317639

- Adds an optional `--wss-checkpoint` flag that takes a string `root:epoch`
- Verify that the given checkpoint exists in the chain, or that the the chain syncs through this checkpoint. If not, shutdown and prompt the user to purge state before restarting.

Implement standard eth2.0 API (#1569)
- Resolves #1550
- Resolves #824
- Resolves #825
- Resolves #1131
- Resolves #1411
- Resolves #1256
- Resolve #1177

- Includes the `ShufflingId` struct initially defined in #1492. That PR is now closed and the changes are included here, with significant bug fixes.
- Implement the https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs in a new `http_api` crate using `warp`. This replaces the `rest_api` crate.
- Add a new `common/eth2` crate which provides a wrapper around `reqwest`, providing the HTTP client that is used by the validator client and for testing. This replaces the `common/remote_beacon_node` crate.
- Create a `http_metrics` crate which is a dedicated server for Prometheus metrics (they are no longer served on the same port as the REST API). We now have flags for `--metrics`, `--metrics-address`, etc.
- Allow the `subnet_id` to be an optional parameter for `VerifiedUnaggregatedAttestation::verify`. This means it does not need to be provided unnecessarily by the validator client.
- Move `fn map_attestation_committee` in `mod beacon_chain::attestation_verification` to a new `fn with_committee_cache` on the `BeaconChain` so the same cache can be used for obtaining validator duties.
- Add some other helpers to `BeaconChain` to assist with common API duties (e.g., `block_root_at_slot`, `head_beacon_block_root`).
- Change the `NaiveAggregationPool` so it can index attestations by `hash_tree_root(attestation.data)`. This is a requirement of the API.
- Add functions to `BeaconChainHarness` to allow it to create slashings and exits.
- Allow for `eth1::Eth1NetworkId` to go to/from a `String`.
- Add functions to the `OperationPool` to allow getting all objects in the pool.
- Add function to `BeaconState` to check if a committee cache is initialized.
- Fix bug where `seconds_per_eth1_block` was not transferring over from `YamlConfig` to `ChainSpec`.
- Add the `deposit_contract_address` to `YamlConfig` and `ChainSpec`. We needed to be able to return it in an API response.
- Change some uses of serde `serialize_with` and `deserialize_with` to a single use of `with` (code quality).
- Impl `Display` and `FromStr` for several BLS fields.
- Check for clock discrepancy when VC polls BN for sync state (with +/- 1 slot tolerance). This is not intended to be comprehensive, it was just easy to do.

- See #1434 for a per-endpoint overview.
- Seeking clarity here: https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs/issues/75

- [x] Follow up on this #1177

bd39cc8e26 Apply hotfix for inconsistent head (#1639)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #1616

## Proposed Changes

If we look at the function which persists fork choice and the canonical head to disk:

1db8daae0c/beacon_node/beacon_chain/src/beacon_chain.rs (L234-L280)

There is a race-condition which might cause the canonical head and fork choice values to be out-of-sync.

I believe this is the cause of #1616. I managed to recreate the issue and produce a database that was unable to sync under the `master` branch but able to sync with this branch.

These new changes solve the issue by ignoring the persisted `canonical_head_block_root` value and instead getting fork choice to generate it. This ensures that the canonical head is in-sync with fork choice.

## Additional Info

This is hotfix method that leaves some crusty code hanging around. Once this PR is merged (to satisfy the v0.2.x users) we should later update and merge #1638 so we can have a clean fix for the v0.3.x versions.

a17f74896a Fix bad assumption when checking finalized descendant (#1629)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #1616

## Proposed Changes

Fixes a bug where we are unable to read the finalized block from fork choice.

## Detail

I had made an assumption that the finalized block always has a parent root of `None`:

e5fc6bab48/consensus/fork_choice/src/fork_choice.rs (L749-L752)

This was a faulty assumption, we don't set parent *roots* to `None`. Instead we *sometimes* set parent *indices* to `None`, depending if this pruning condition is satisfied: 

e5fc6bab48/consensus/proto_array/src/proto_array.rs (L229-L232) 

The bug manifested itself like this:

1. We attempt to get the finalized block from fork choice
1. We try to check that the block is descendant of the finalized block (note: they're the same block).
1. We expect the parent root to be `None`, but it's actually the parent root of the finalized root.
1. We therefore end up checking if the parent of the finalized root is a descendant of itself. (note: it's an *ancestor* not a *descendant*).
1. We therefore declare that the finalized block is not a descendant of (or eq to) the finalized block. Bad.

## Additional Info

In reflection, I made a poor assumption in the quest to obtain a probably negligible performance gain. The performance gain wasn't worth the risk and we got burnt.

d9f4819fe0 Alternative (to BeaconChainHarness) BeaconChain testing API (#1380)
The PR:

* Adds the ability to generate a crucial test scenario that isn't possible with `BeaconChainHarness` (i.e. two blocks occupying the same slot; previously forks necessitated skipping slots):

![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/165678/88195404-4bce3580-cc40-11ea-8c08-b48d2e1d5959.png)

* New testing API: Instead of repeatedly calling add_block(), you generate a sorted `Vec<Slot>` and leave it up to the framework to generate blocks at those slots.
* Jumping backwards to an earlier epoch is a hard error, so that tests necessarily generate blocks in a epoch-by-epoch manner.
* Configures the test logger so that output is printed on the console in case a test fails.  The logger also plays well with `--nocapture`, contrary to the existing testing framework
* Rewrites existing fork pruning tests to use the new API
* Adds a tests that triggers finalization at a non epoch boundary slot
* Renamed `BeaconChainYoke` to `BeaconChainTestingRig` because the former has been too confusing
* Fixed multiple tests (e.g. `block_production_different_shuffling_long`, `delete_blocks_and_states`, `shuffling_compatible_simple_fork`) that relied on a weird (and accidental) feature of the old `BeaconChainHarness` that attestations aren't produced for epochs earlier than the current one, thus masking potential bugs in test cases.

619ad106cf Restrict fork choice getters to finalized blocks (#1475)
## Issue Addressed

- Resolves #1451

## Proposed Changes

- Restricts the `contains_block` and `contains_block` so they only indicate a block is present if it descends from the finalized root. This helps to ensure that fork choice never points to a block that has been pruned from the database.
- Resolves #1451
- Before importing a block, double-check that its parent is known and a descendant of the finalized root.
- Split a big, monolithic block verification test into smaller tests. 

## Additional Notes

I suspect there would be a craftier way to do the `is_descendant_of_finalized` check, but we're a bit tight on time now and we can optimize later if it starts showing in benches.
