## Proposed Changes
Implements the `PrettyReqwestError` to wrap a `reqwest::Error` and give nicer `Debug` formatting. It also wraps the `Url` component in a `SensitiveUrl` to avoid leaking sensitive info in logs.
### Before
```
Reqwest(reqwest::Error { kind: Request, url: Url { scheme: "http", cannot_be_a_base: false, username: "", password: None, host: Some(Domain("localhost")), port: Some(9999), path: "/eth/v1/node/version", query: None, fragment: None }, source: hyper::Error(Connect, ConnectError("tcp connect error", Os { code: 61, kind: ConnectionRefused, message: "Connection refused" })) })
```
### After
```
HttpClient(url: http://localhost:9999/, kind: request, detail: error trying to connect: tcp connect error: Connection refused (os error 61))
```
## Additional Info
I've also renamed the `Reqwest` error enum variants to `HttpClient`, to give people a better chance at knowing what's going on. Reqwest is pretty odd and looks like a typo.
I've implemented it in the `eth2` and `execution_layer` crates. This should affect most logs in the VC and EE-related ones in the BN.
I think the last crate that could benefit from the is the `beacon_node/eth1` crate. I haven't updated it in this PR since its error type is not so amenable to it (everything goes into a `String`). I don't have a whole lot of time to jig around with that at the moment and I feel that this PR as it stands is a significant enough improvement to merge on its own. Leaving it as-is is fine for the time being and we can always come back for it later (or implement in-protocol deposits!).
## Issue Addressed
Resolves#3238
## Proposed Changes
Please list or describe the changes introduced by this PR.
## Additional Info
Please provide any additional information. For example, future considerations
or information useful for reviewers.
## Proposed Changes
Remove `max-skip-slots` checks when processing blocks.
This was legacy code which was previously used in the Medalla testnet to sync to the correct fork.
With the addition of checkpoint sync which allows us to sync to any arbitrary fork, this is no longer a necessary feature, so it has been removed for simplicity.
## Additional Notes
The CLI flag and checks for attestation processing have been retained as it still may have uses in DoS protection.
Currently, the ENR of the node may not be correctly updated when specifying ipv6 fields through the CLI if an ENR exists on disk.
This remedies a bug where we were not checking for ipv6 fields when comparing whether to use an on-disk ENR or updating based on CLI configuration parameters.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#4332
## Proposed Changes
Remove the `CountUnrealized` type, defaulting unrealized justification to _on_. This fixes the #4332 issue by ensuring that importing the same block to fork choice always results in the same outcome.
Finalized sync speed may be slightly impacted by this change, but that is deemed an acceptable trade-off until the optimisation from #4118 is implemented.

## Issue Addressed
Closes#4354Closes#3987
Replaces #4305, #4283
## Proposed Changes
This switches the default slasher backend _back_ to LMDB.
If an MDBX database exists and the MDBX backend is enabled then MDBX will continue to be used. Our release binaries and Docker images will continue to include MDBX for as long as it is practical, so users of these should not notice any difference.
The main benefit is to users compiling from source and devs running tests. These users no longer have to struggle to compile MDBX and deal with the compatibility issues that arises. Similarly, devs don't need to worry about toggling feature flags in tests or risk forgetting to run the slasher tests due to backend issues.

## Proposed Changes
This change will log the value of the relay block and the local block when the relay block is more profitable.
## Additional Info
This change will help validators understand the block selection (as it looks like the execution reward sometimes is higher that the MEV-reward).
The rationale for this change is to aid operators to better understand why a relay-block was chosen over a local block.
Looking at produced blocks (at beaconcha.in for example) it sometimes looks like the builder is making a profit just from the execution reward vs the MEV-reward, and creates the nagging question: "Could i have built this block and made that extra profit?"... The answer is probably "No, not without the extra transactions included by the relay", but by logging the value of the local block-candidate, this will no longer be an issue..

## Issue Addressed
On deneb devnetv5, lighthouse keeps rate limiting peers which makes it harder to bootstrap new nodes as there are very few peers in the network. This PR adds an option to disable the inbound rate limiter for testnets.
Added an option to configure inbound rate limits as well.

## Proposed Changes
This is a light refactor of the execution layer's block hash calculation logic making it easier to use externally. e.g. in `eleel` (https://github.com/sigp/eleel/pull/18).
A static method is preferable to a method because the calculation doesn't actually need any data from `self`, and callers may want to compute block hashes without constructing an `ExecutionLayer` (`eleel` only constructs a simpler `Engine` struct).
This PR address the following spec change: https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3312
Instead of subscribing to a long-lived subnet for every attached validator to a beacon node, all beacon nodes will subscribe to `SUBNETS_PER_NODE` long-lived subnets. This is currently set to 2 for mainnet.
This PR does not include any scoring or advanced discovery mechanisms. A future PR will improve discovery and we can implement scoring after the next hard fork when we expect all client teams and all implementations to respect this spec change.
This will be a significant change in the subnet network structure for consensus clients and we will likely have to monitor and tweak our peer management logic.
This PR adds the ability to read the Lighthouse logs from the HTTP API for both the BN and the VC.
This is done in such a way to as minimize any kind of performance hit by adding this feature.
The current design creates a tokio broadcast channel and mixes is into a form of slog drain that combines with our main global logger drain, only if the http api is enabled.
The drain gets the logs, checks the log level and drops them if they are below INFO. If they are INFO or higher, it sends them via a broadcast channel only if there are users subscribed to the HTTP API channel. If not, it drops the logs.
If there are more than one subscriber, the channel clones the log records and converts them to json in their independent HTTP API tasks.

## Proposed Changes
Adds metrics to track validators that are submitting equivocating (but not slashable) sync messages. This follows on from some research we've been doing in a separate fork of LH.
## Additional Info
@jimmygchen and @michaelsproul have already run their eyes over this so it should be easy to get into v4.2.0, IMO.
## Issue Addressed
#4281
## Proposed Changes
- Change `ShufflingCache` implementation from using `LruCache` to a custom cache that removes entry with lowest epoch instead of oldest insertion time.
- Protect the "enshrined" head shufflings when inserting new committee cache entries. The shuffling ids matching the head's previous, current, and future epochs will never be ejected from the cache during `Self::insert_cache_item`.
## Additional Info
There is a bonus point on shuffling preferences in the issue description that hasn't been implemented yet, as I haven't figured out a good way to do this:
> However I'm not convinced since there are some complexities around tie-breaking when two entries have the same epoch. Perhaps preferring entries in the canonical chain is best?
We should be able to check if a block is on the canonical chain by:
```rust
canonical_head
.fork_choice_read_lock()
.contains_block(root)
```
However we need to interleave the shuffling and fork choice locks, which may cause deadlocks if we're not careful (mentioned by @paulhauner). Alternatively, we could use the `state.block_roots` field of the `chain.canonical_head.snapshot.beacon_state`, which avoids deadlock but requires more work.
I'd like to get some feedback on review & testing before I dig deeper into the preferences stuff, as having the canonical head preference may already be quite useful in preventing the issue raised.

## Issue Addressed
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/4291, part of #3613.
## Proposed Changes
- Implement the `el_offline` field on `/eth/v1/node/syncing`. We set `el_offline=true` if:
- The EL's internal status is `Offline` or `AuthFailed`, _or_
- The most recent call to `newPayload` resulted in an error (more on this in a moment).
- Use the `el_offline` field in the VC to mark nodes with offline ELs as _unsynced_. These nodes will still be used, but only after synced nodes.
- Overhaul the usage of `RequireSynced` so that `::No` is used almost everywhere. The `--allow-unsynced` flag was broken and had the opposite effect to intended, so it has been deprecated.
- Add tests for the EL being offline on the upcheck call, and being offline due to the newPayload check.
## Why track `newPayload` errors?
Tracking the EL's online/offline status is too coarse-grained to be useful in practice, because:
- If the EL is timing out to some calls, it's unlikely to timeout on the `upcheck` call, which is _just_ `eth_syncing`. Every failed call is followed by an upcheck [here](693886b941/beacon_node/execution_layer/src/engines.rs (L372-L380)), which would have the effect of masking the failure and keeping the status _online_.
- The `newPayload` call is the most likely to time out. It's the call in which ELs tend to do most of their work (often 1-2 seconds), with `forkchoiceUpdated` usually returning much faster (<50ms).
- If `newPayload` is failing consistently (e.g. timing out) then this is a good indication that either the node's EL is in trouble, or the network as a whole is. In the first case validator clients _should_ prefer other BNs if they have one available. In the second case, all of their BNs will likely report `el_offline` and they'll just have to proceed with trying to use them.
## Additional Changes
- Add utility method `ForkName::latest` which is quite convenient for test writing, but probably other things too.
- Delete some stale comments from when we used to support multiple execution nodes.
## Issue Addressed
#2335
## Proposed Changes
- Remove the `lighthouse-network::tests::gossipsub_tests` module
- Remove dead code from the `lighthouse-network::tests::common` helper module (`build_full_mesh`)
## Additional Info
After discussion with both @divagant-martian and @AgeManning, these tests seem to have two main issues in that they are:
- Redundant, in that they don't test anything meaningful (due to our handling of duplicate messages)
- Out-of-place, in that it doesn't really test Lighthouse-specific functionality (rather libp2p functionality)
As such, this PR supersedes #4286.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
Adds an additional check to a feature introduced in #4179 to prevent us from re-queuing already-known blocks that could be rejected immediately.
## Additional Info
Ideally this would have been included in v4.1.0, however we came across it too late to release it safely. We decided that the safest path forward is to release *without* this check and then patch it in the next version. The lack of this check should only result in a very minor performance impact (the impact is totally negligible in my assessment).
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
Adds a flag to store invalid blocks on disk for teh debugz. Only *some* invalid blocks are stored, those which:
- Were received via gossip (rather than RPC, for instance)
- This keeps things simple to start with and should capture most blocks.
- Passed gossip verification
- This reduces the ability for random people to fill up our disk. A proposer signature is required to write something to disk.
## Additional Info
It's possible that we'll store blocks that aren't necessarily invalid, but we had an internal error during verification. Those blocks seem like they might be useful sometimes.

## Limit Backfill Sync
This PR transitions Lighthouse from syncing all the way back to genesis to only syncing back to the weak subjectivity point (~ 5 months) when syncing via a checkpoint sync.
There are a number of important points to note with this PR:
- Firstly and most importantly, this PR fundamentally shifts the default security guarantees of checkpoint syncing in Lighthouse. Prior to this PR, Lighthouse could verify the checkpoint of any given chain by ensuring the chain eventually terminates at the corresponding genesis. This guarantee can still be employed via the new CLI flag --genesis-backfill which will prompt lighthouse to the old behaviour of downloading all blocks back to genesis. The new behaviour only checks the proposer signatures for the last 5 months of blocks but cannot guarantee the chain matches the genesis chain.
- I have not modified any of the peer scoring or RPC responses. Clients syncing from gensis, will downscore new Lighthouse peers that do not possess blocks prior to the WSP. This is by design, as Lighthouse nodes of this form, need a mechanism to sort through peers in order to find useful peers in order to complete their genesis sync. We therefore do not discriminate between empty/error responses for blocks prior or post the local WSP. If we request a block that a peer does not posses, then fundamentally that peer is less useful to us than other peers.
- This will make a radical shift in that the majority of nodes will no longer store the full history of the chain. In the future we could add a pruning mechanism to remove old blocks from the db also.

## Issue Addressed
This PR un-deprecates some commonly used test util functions, e.g. `extend_chain`. Most of these were deprecated in 2020 but some of us still found them quite convenient and they're still being used a lot. If there's no issue with using them, I think we should remove the "Deprecated" comment to avoid confusion.
## Issue Addressed
#4150
## Proposed Changes
Maintain trusted peers in the pruning logic. ~~In principle the changes here are not necessary as a trusted peer has a max score (100) and all other peers can have at most 0 (because we don't implement positive scores). This means that we should never prune trusted peers unless we have more trusted peers than the target peer count.~~
This change shifts this logic to explicitly never prune trusted peers which I expect is the intuitive behaviour.
~~I suspect the issue in #4150 arises when a trusted peer disconnects from us for one reason or another and then we remove that peer from our peerdb as it becomes stale. When it re-connects at some large time later, it is no longer a trusted peer.~~
Currently we do disconnect trusted peers, and this PR corrects this to maintain trusted peers in the pruning logic.
As suggested in #4150 we maintain trusted peers in the db and thus we remember them even if they disconnect from us.

It is a well-known fact that IP addresses for beacon nodes used by specific validators can be de-anonymized. There is an assumed risk that a malicious user may attempt to DOS validators when producing blocks to prevent chain growth/liveness.
Although there are a number of ideas put forward to address this, there a few simple approaches we can take to mitigate this risk.
Currently, a Lighthouse user is able to set a number of beacon-nodes that their validator client can connect to. If one beacon node is taken offline, it can fallback to another. Different beacon nodes can use VPNs or rotate IPs in order to mask their IPs.
This PR provides an additional setup option which further mitigates attacks of this kind.
This PR introduces a CLI flag --proposer-only to the beacon node. Setting this flag will configure the beacon node to run with minimal peers and crucially will not subscribe to subnets or sync committees. Therefore nodes of this kind should not be identified as nodes connected to validators of any kind.
It also introduces a CLI flag --proposer-nodes to the validator client. Users can then provide a number of beacon nodes (which may or may not run the --proposer-only flag) that the Validator client will use for block production and propagation only. If these nodes fail, the validator client will fallback to the default list of beacon nodes.
Users are then able to set up a number of beacon nodes dedicated to block proposals (which are unlikely to be identified as validator nodes) and point their validator clients to produce blocks on these nodes and attest on other beacon nodes. An attack attempting to prevent liveness on the eth2 network would then need to preemptively find and attack the proposer nodes which is significantly more difficult than the default setup.
This is a follow on from: #3328

Avoids reprocessing loops introduced in #4179. (Also somewhat related to #4192).
Breaks the re-queue loop by only re-queuing when an RPC block is received before the attestation creation deadline.

## Proposed Changes
Builds on #4028 to use the new payload bodies methods in the HTTP API as well.
## Caveats
The payloads by range method only works for the finalized chain, so it can't be used in the execution engine integration tests because we try to reconstruct unfinalized payloads there.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
Apply two changes to code introduced in #4179:
1. Remove the `ERRO` log for when we error on `proposer_has_been_observed()`. We were seeing a lot of this in our logs for finalized blocks and it's a bit noisy.
1. Use `false` rather than `true` for `proposal_already_known` when there is an error. If a block raises an error in `proposer_has_been_observed()` then the block must be invalid, so we should process (and reject) it now rather than queuing it.
For reference, here is one of the offending `ERRO` logs:
```
ERRO Failed to check observed proposers block_root: 0x5845…878e, source: rpc, error: FinalizedBlock { slot: Slot(5410983), finalized_slot: Slot(5411232) }
```

## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Similar to #4181 but without the version bump and a more nuanced fix.
Patches the high CPU usage seen after the Capella fork which was caused by processing exits when there are skip slots.
## Additional Info
~~This is an imperfect solution that will cause us to drop some exits at the fork boundary. This is tracked at #4184.~~
## Proposed Changes
We already make some attempts to avoid processing RPC blocks when a block from the same proposer is already being processed through gossip. This PR strengthens that guarantee by using the existing cache for `observed_block_producers` to inform whether an RPC block's processing should be delayed.
## Proposed Changes
This change attempts to prevent failed re-orgs by:
1. Lowering the re-org cutoff from 2s to 1s. This is informed by a failed re-org attempted by @yorickdowne's node. The failed block was requested in the 1.5-2s window due to a Vouch failure, and failed to propagate to the majority of the network before the attestation deadline at 4s.
2. Allow users to adjust their re-org cutoff depending on observed network conditions and their risk profile. The static 2 second cutoff was too rigid.
3. Add a `--proposer-reorg-disallowed-offsets` flag which can be used to prohibit reorgs at certain slots. This is intended to help workaround an issue whereby reorging blocks at slot 1 are currently taking ~1.6s to propagate on gossip rather than ~500ms. This is suspected to be due to a cache miss in current versions of Prysm, which should be fixed in their next release.
## Additional Info
I'm of two minds about removing the `shuffling_stable` check which checks for blocks at slot 0 in the epoch. If we removed it users would be able to configure Lighthouse to try reorging at slot 0, which likely wouldn't work very well due to interactions with the proposer index cache. I think we could leave it for now and revisit it later.

It is possible that when we go to ban a peer, there is already an unbanned message in the queue. It could lead to the case that we ban and immediately unban a peer leaving us in a state where a should-be banned peer is unbanned.
If this banned peer connects to us in this faulty state, we currently do not attempt to re-ban it. This PR does correct this also, so if we do see this error, it will now self-correct (although we shouldn't see the error in the first place).
I have also incremented the severity of not supporting protocols as I see peers ultimately get banned in a few steps and it seems to make sense to just ban them outright, rather than have them linger.
## Issue Addressed
#3212
## Proposed Changes
- Introduce a new `rate_limiting_backfill_queue` - any new inbound backfill work events gets immediately sent to this FIFO queue **without any processing**
- Spawn a `backfill_scheduler` routine that pops a backfill event from the FIFO queue at specified intervals (currently halfway through a slot, or at 6s after slot start for 12s slots) and sends the event to `BeaconProcessor` via a `scheduled_backfill_work_tx` channel
- This channel gets polled last in the `InboundEvents`, and work event received is wrapped in a `InboundEvent::ScheduledBackfillWork` enum variant, which gets processed immediately or queued by the `BeaconProcessor` (existing logic applies from here)
Diagram comparing backfill processing with / without rate-limiting:
https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3212#issuecomment-1386249922
See this comment for @paulhauner's explanation and solution: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3212#issuecomment-1384674956
## Additional Info
I've compared this branch (with backfill processing rate limited to to 1 and 3 batches per slot) against the latest stable version. The CPU usage during backfill sync is reduced by ~5% - 20%, more details on this page:
https://hackmd.io/@jimmygchen/SJuVpJL3j
The above testing is done on Goerli (as I don't currently have hardware for Mainnet), I'm guessing the differences are likely to be bigger on mainnet due to block size.
### TODOs
- [x] Experiment with processing multiple batches per slot. (need to think about how to do this for different slot durations)
- [x] Add option to disable rate-limiting, enabed by default.
- [x] (No longer required now we're reusing the reprocessing queue) Complete the `backfill_scheduler` task when backfill sync is completed or not required

## Proposed Changes
- Implements https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/3290/
- Bumps `ef-tests` to [v1.3.0-rc.4](https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-spec-tests/releases/tag/v1.3.0-rc.4).
The `CountRealizedFull` concept has been removed and the `--count-unrealized-full` and `--count-unrealized` BN flags now do nothing but log a `WARN` when used.
## Database Migration Debt
This PR removes the `best_justified_checkpoint` from fork choice. This field is persisted on-disk and the correct way to go about this would be to make a DB migration to remove the field. However, in this PR I've simply stubbed out the value with a junk value. I've taken this approach because if we're going to do a DB migration I'd love to remove the `Option`s around the justified and finalized checkpoints on `ProtoNode` whilst we're at it. Those options were added in #2822 which was included in Lighthouse v2.1.0. The options were only put there to handle the migration and they've been set to `Some` ever since v2.1.0. There's no reason to keep them as options anymore.
I started adding the DB migration to this branch but I started to feel like I was bloating this rather critical PR with nice-to-haves. I've kept the partially-complete migration [over in my repo](https://github.com/paulhauner/lighthouse/tree/fc-pr-18-migration) so we can pick it up after this PR is merged.

## Proposed Changes
Replaces #4058 to attempt to reduce `ERRO Failed to send scheduled attestation` spam and provide more information for diagnosis. With this PR we achieve:
- When dequeuing attestations after a block is received, send only one log which reports `n` failures (rather than `n` logs reporting `n` failures).
- Make a distinction in logs between two separate attestation dequeuing events.
- Add more information to both log events to help assist with troubleshooting.

This PR enables the user to adjust the shuffling cache size.
This is useful for some HTTP API requests which require re-computing old shufflings. This PR currently optimizes the
beacon/states/{state_id}/committees HTTP API by first checking the cache before re-building shuffling.
If the shuffling is set to a non-default value, then the HTTP API request will also fill the cache when as it constructs new shufflings.
If the CLI flag is not present or the value is set to the default of 16 the default behaviour is observed.

Currently Lighthouse will remain uncontactable if users port forward a port that is not the same as the one they are listening on.
For example, if Lighthouse runs with port 9000 TCP/UDP locally but a router is configured to pass 9010 externally to the lighthouse node on 9000, other nodes on the network will not be able to reach the lighthouse node.
This occurs because Lighthouse does not update its ENR TCP port on external socket discovery. The intention was always that users should use `--enr-tcp-port` to customise this, but this is non-intuitive.
The difficulty arises because we have no discovery mechanism to find our external TCP port. If we discovery a new external UDP port, we must guess what our external TCP port might be. This PR assumes the external TCP port is the same as the external UDP port (which may not be the case) and thus updates the TCP port along with the UDP port if the `--enr-tcp-port` flag is not set.
Along with this PR, will be added documentation to the Lighthouse book so users can correctly understand and configure their ENR to maximize Lighthouse's connectivity.
This relies on https://github.com/sigp/discv5/pull/166 and we should wait for a new release in discv5 before adding this PR.
If a node is also a bootnode it can try to add itself to its own local routing table which will emit an error.
The error is entirely harmless but we would prefer to avoid emitting the error.
This PR does not attempt to add a boot node ENR if that ENR corresponds to our local peer-id/node-id.

## Proposed Changes
When producing a block from a builder, there are two points where we could consider the block "broadcast":
1. When the blinded block is published to the builder.
2. When the un-blinded block is published to the P2P network (this is always *after* the previous step).
Our logging for late block broadcasts was using (2) for builder-blocks, which was creating a lot of false-positive logs. This is because the builder publishes the block on the P2P network themselves before returning it to us and we perform (2). For clarity, the logs were false-positives because we claim that the block was published late by us when it was actually published earlier by the builder.
This PR changes our logging behavior so we do our logging at (1) instead. It also updates our metrics for block broadcast to distinguish between local and builder blocks. I believe the metrics change will be natively compatible with existing Grafana dashboards.
## Additional Info
One could argue that the builder *should* return the block to us faster, however that's not the case. I think it's more important that we don't desensitize users with false-positives.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#3814, replaces #3818.
## Proposed Changes
* Add a WARN log for the case where we are attempting to sync chain segments but can't process them because they're building on an invalid parent. The most common case where we see this is when the execution node database is corrupt, causing sync to stall mysteriously (because we're currently logging the failure only at debug level).
* Additionally I've bumped up the logging for invalid execution payloads to `WARN`. This may result in some duplicate logs as we log errors from the `beacon_chain` and then again from the beacon processor. Invalid payloads and corrupt DBs _should_ be rare enough that this doesn't produce overwhelming log volume.
There is a race condition which occurs when multiple discovery queries return at almost the exact same time and they independently contain a useful peer we would like to connect to.
The condition can occur that we can add the same peer to the dial queue, before we get a chance to process the queue.
This ends up displaying an error to the user:
```
ERRO Dialing an already dialing peer
```
Although this error is harmless it's not ideal.
There are two solutions to resolving this:
1. As we decide to dial the peer, we change the state in the peer-db to dialing (before we add it to the queue) which would prevent other requests from adding to the queue.
2. We prevent duplicates in the dial queue
This PR has opted for 2. because 1. will complicate the code in that we are changing states in non-intuitive places. Although this technically adds a very slight performance cost, its probably a cleaner solution as we can keep the state-changing logic in one place.
* update docs
* introduce a temp enum to model an adjusted `BlockWrapper` and fix blob coupling
* fix compilation issue
* fix blob coupling in the network context

## Issue Addressed
#3938
## Proposed Changes
- `network::Processor` is deleted and all it's logic is moved to `network::Router`.
- The `network::Router` module is moved to a single file.
- The following functions are deleted: `on_disconnect` `send_status` `on_status_response` `on_blocks_by_root_request` `on_lightclient_bootstrap` `on_blocks_by_range_request` `on_block_gossip` `on_unaggregated_attestation_gossip` `on_aggregated_attestation_gossip` `on_voluntary_exit_gossip` `on_proposer_slashing_gossip` `on_attester_slashing_gossip` `on_sync_committee_signature_gossip` `on_sync_committee_contribution_gossip` `on_light_client_finality_update_gossip` `on_light_client_optimistic_update_gossip`. This deletions are possible because the updated `Router` allows the underlying methods to be called directly.
## Issue Addressed
- Add a complete match for `Protocol` here.
- The incomplete match was causing us not to append context bytes to the light client protocols
- This is the relevant part of the spec and it looks like context bytes are defined https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/dev/specs/altair/light-client/p2p-interface.md#getlightclientbootstrap
Disclaimer: I have no idea if people are using it but it shouldn't have been working so not sure why it wasn't caught

## Issue Addressed
In #4027 I forgot to add the `parent_block_number` to the payload attributes SSE.
## Proposed Changes
Compute the parent block number while computing the pre-payload attributes. Pass it on to the SSE stream.
## Additional Info
Not essential for v3.5.1 as I suspect most builders don't need the `parent_block_root`. I would like to use it for my dummy no-op builder however.
## Issue Addressed
Add support for ipv6 and dual stack in lighthouse.
## Proposed Changes
From an user perspective, now setting an ipv6 address, optionally configuring the ports should feel exactly the same as using an ipv4 address. If listening over both ipv4 and ipv6 then the user needs to:
- use the `--listen-address` two times (ipv4 and ipv6 addresses)
- `--port6` becomes then required
- `--discovery-port6` can now be used to additionally configure the ipv6 udp port
### Rough list of code changes
- Discovery:
- Table filter and ip mode set to match the listening config.
- Ipv6 address, tcp port and udp port set in the ENR builder
- Reported addresses now check which tcp port to give to libp2p
- LH Network Service:
- Can listen over Ipv6, Ipv4, or both. This uses two sockets. Using mapped addresses is disabled from libp2p and it's the most compatible option.
- NetworkGlobals:
- No longer stores udp port since was not used at all. Instead, stores the Ipv4 and Ipv6 TCP ports.
- NetworkConfig:
- Update names to make it clear that previous udp and tcp ports in ENR were Ipv4
- Add fields to configure Ipv6 udp and tcp ports in the ENR
- Include advertised enr Ipv6 address.
- Add type to model Listening address that's either Ipv4, Ipv6 or both. A listening address includes the ip, udp port and tcp port.
- UPnP:
- Kept only for ipv4
- Cli flags:
- `--listen-addresses` now can take up to two values
- `--port` will apply to ipv4 or ipv6 if only one listening address is given. If two listening addresses are given it will apply only to Ipv4.
- `--port6` New flag required when listening over ipv4 and ipv6 that applies exclusively to Ipv6.
- `--discovery-port` will now apply to ipv4 and ipv6 if only one listening address is given.
- `--discovery-port6` New flag to configure the individual udp port of ipv6 if listening over both ipv4 and ipv6.
- `--enr-udp-port` Updated docs to specify that it only applies to ipv4. This is an old behaviour.
- `--enr-udp6-port` Added to configure the enr udp6 field.
- `--enr-tcp-port` Updated docs to specify that it only applies to ipv4. This is an old behaviour.
- `--enr-tcp6-port` Added to configure the enr tcp6 field.
- `--enr-addresses` now can take two values.
- `--enr-match` updated behaviour.
- Common:
- rename `unused_port` functions to specify that they are over ipv4.
- add functions to get unused ports over ipv6.
- Testing binaries
- Updated code to reflect network config changes and unused_port changes.
## Additional Info
TODOs:
- use two sockets in discovery. I'll get back to this and it's on https://github.com/sigp/discv5/pull/160
- lcli allow listening over two sockets in generate_bootnodes_enr
- add at least one smoke flag for ipv6 (I have tested this and works for me)
- update the book
