## Issue Addressed
This PR fixes the unnecessary `WARN Single block lookup failed` messages described here:
https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2866#issuecomment-1008442640
## Proposed Changes
Add a new cache to the `BeaconChain` that tracks the block roots of blocks from before finalization. These could be blocks from the canonical chain (which might need to be read from disk), or old pre-finalization blocks that have been forked out.
The cache also stores a set of block roots for in-progress single block lookups, which duplicates some of the information from sync's `single_block_lookups` hashmap:
a836e180f9/beacon_node/network/src/sync/manager.rs (L192-L196)
On a live node you can confirm that the cache is working by grepping logs for the message: `Rejected attestation to finalized block`.
#2923
Which issue # does this PR address?
There's a redundant field on the BeaconChain called disabled_forks that was once part of our fork-aware networking (#953) but which is no longer used and could be deleted. so Removed all references to disabled_forks so that the code compiles and git grep disabled_forks returns no results.
## Proposed Changes
Please list or describe the changes introduced by this PR.

## Proposed Changes
Change the canonical fork name for the merge to Bellatrix. Keep other merge naming the same to avoid churn.
I've also fixed and enabled the `fork` and `transition` tests for Bellatrix, and the v1.1.7 fork choice tests.
Additionally, the `BellatrixPreset` has been added with tests. It gets served via the `/config/spec` API endpoint along with the other presets.

## Proposed Changes
In https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2832 we made some changes to the `SnapshotCache` to help deal with the one-block reorgs seen on mainnet (and testnets).
I believe the change in #2832 is good and we should keep it, but I think that in its present form it is causing the `SnapshotCache` to hold onto states that it doesn't need anymore. For example, a skip slot will result in one more `BeaconSnapshot` being stored in the cache.
This PR adds a new type of pruning that happens after a block is inserted to the cache. We will remove any snapshot from the cache that is a *grandparent* of the block being imported. Since we know the grandparent has two valid blocks built atop it, it is not at risk from a one-block re-org.

## Proposed Changes
We have observed occasions were under-resourced nodes will receive messages that were valid *at the time*, but later become invalidated due to long waits for a `BeaconProcessor` worker.
In this PR, we will check to see if the message was valid *at the time of receipt*. If it was initially valid but invalid now, we just ignore the message without penalizing the peer.

## Proposed Changes
Introduces a cache to attestation to produce atop blocks which will become the head, but are not fully imported (e.g., not inserted into the database).
Whilst attesting to a block before it's imported is rather easy, if we're going to produce that attestation then we also need to be able to:
1. Verify that attestation.
1. Respond to RPC requests for the `beacon_block_root`.
Attestation verification (1) is *partially* covered. Since we prime the shuffling cache before we insert the block into the early attester cache, we should be fine for all typical use-cases. However, it is possible that the cache is washed out before we've managed to insert the state into the database and then attestation verification will fail with a "missing beacon state"-type error.
Providing the block via RPC (2) is also partially covered, since we'll check the database *and* the early attester cache when responding a blocks-by-root request. However, we'll still omit the block from blocks-by-range requests (until the block lands in the DB). I *think* this is fine, since there's no guarantee that we return all blocks for those responses.
Another important consideration is whether or not the *parent* of the early attester block is available in the databse. If it were not, we might fail to respond to blocks-by-root request that are iterating backwards to collect a chain of blocks. I argue that *we will always have the parent of the early attester block in the database.* This is because we are holding the fork-choice write-lock when inserting the block into the early attester cache and we do not drop that until the block is in the database.

## Proposed Changes
Ensures full roots are printed, rather than shortened versions like `0x935b…d376`.
For example, it would be nice if we could do API queries based upon the roots shown in the `Beacon chain re-org` event:
```
Jan 05 12:36:52.224 WARN Beacon chain re-org reorg_distance: 2, new_slot: 2073184, new_head: 0x8a97…2dec, new_head_parent: 0xa985…7688, previous_slot: 2073183, previous_head: 0x935b…d376, service: beacon
Jan 05 13:35:05.832 WARN Beacon chain re-org reorg_distance: 1, new_slot: 2073475, new_head: 0x9207…c6b9, new_head_parent: 0xb2ce…839b, previous_slot: 2073474, previous_head: 0x8066…92f7, service: beacon
```
## Additional Info
We should eventually fix this project-wide, however this is a short-term patch.
## Proposed Changes
Update `superstruct` to bring in @realbigsean's fixes necessary for MEV-compatible private beacon block types (a la #2795).
The refactoring is due to another change in superstruct that allows partial getters to be auto-generated.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
We are currently treating errors from the EL on `engine_executePayload` as `PayloadVerificationStatus::NotVerified`. This adds the block as a candidate head block in fork choice even if the EL explicitly rejected the block as invalid.
`PayloadVerificationStatus::NotVerified` should be only returned when the EL explicitly returns "syncing" imo. This PR propagates an error instead of returning `NotVerified` on EL all EL errors.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#2286Closes#2538Closes#2342
## Proposed Changes
Part II of major slasher optimisations after #2767
These changes will be backwards-incompatible due to the move to MDBX (and the schema change) 😱
* [x] Shrink attester keys from 16 bytes to 7 bytes.
* [x] Shrink attester records from 64 bytes to 6 bytes.
* [x] Separate `DiskConfig` from regular `Config`.
* [x] Add configuration for the LRU cache size.
* [x] Add a "migration" that deletes any legacy LMDB database.
## Issue Addressed
Successor to #2431
## Proposed Changes
* Add a `BlockReplayer` struct to abstract over the intricacies of calling `per_slot_processing` and `per_block_processing` while avoiding unnecessary tree hashing.
* Add a variant of the forwards state root iterator that does not require an `end_state`.
* Use the `BlockReplayer` when reconstructing states in the database. Use the efficient forwards iterator for frozen states.
* Refactor the iterators to remove `Arc<HotColdDB>` (this seems to be neater than making _everything_ an `Arc<HotColdDB>` as I did in #2431).
Supplying the state roots allow us to avoid building a tree hash cache at all when reconstructing historic states, which saves around 1 second flat (regardless of `slots-per-restore-point`). This is a small percentage of worst-case state load times with 200K validators and SPRP=2048 (~15s vs ~16s) but a significant speed-up for more frequent restore points: state loads with SPRP=32 should be now consistently <500ms instead of 1.5s (a ~3x speedup).
## Additional Info
Required by https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2628
## Proposed Changes
Remove the `is_first_block_in_epoch` logic from the balances cache update logic, as it was incorrect in the case of skipped slots. The updated code is simpler because regardless of whether the block is the first in the epoch we can check if an entry for the epoch boundary root already exists in the cache, and update the cache accordingly.
Additionally, to assist with flip-flopping justified epochs, move to cloning the balance cache rather than moving it. This should still be very fast in practice because the balances cache is a ~1.6MB `Vec`, and this operation is expected to only occur infrequently.
## Issue Addressed
Resolves: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2741
Includes: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2853 so that we can get ssz static tests passing here on v1.1.6. If we want to merge that first, we can make this diff slightly smaller
## Proposed Changes
- Changes the `justified_epoch` and `finalized_epoch` in the `ProtoArrayNode` each to an `Option<Checkpoint>`. The `Option` is necessary only for the migration, so not ideal. But does allow us to add a default logic to `None` on these fields during the database migration.
- Adds a database migration from a legacy fork choice struct to the new one, search for all necessary block roots in fork choice by iterating through blocks in the db.
- updates related to https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2727
- We will have to update the persisted forkchoice to make sure the justified checkpoint stored is correct according to the updated fork choice logic. This boils down to setting the forkchoice store's justified checkpoint to the justified checkpoint of the block that advanced the finalized checkpoint to the current one.
- AFAICT there's no migration steps necessary for the update to allow applying attestations from prior blocks, but would appreciate confirmation on that
- I updated the consensus spec tests to v1.1.6 here, but they will fail until we also implement the proposer score boost updates. I confirmed that the previously failing scenario `new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor` will now pass after the boost updates, but haven't confirmed _all_ tests will pass because I just quickly stubbed out the proposer boost test scenario formatting.
- This PR now also includes proposer boosting https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2730
## Additional Info
I realized checking justified and finalized roots in fork choice makes it more likely that we trigger this bug: https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2727
It's possible the combination of justified checkpoint and finalized checkpoint in the forkchoice store is different from in any block in fork choice. So when trying to startup our store's justified checkpoint seems invalid to the rest of fork choice (but it should be valid). When this happens we get an `InvalidBestNode` error and fail to start up. So I'm including that bugfix in this branch.
Todo:
- [x] Fix fork choice tests
- [x] Self review
- [x] Add fix for https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2727
- [x] Rebase onto Kintusgi
- [x] Fix `num_active_validators` calculation as @michaelsproul pointed out
- [x] Clean up db migrations

## Proposed Changes
Changes required for the `merge-devnet-3`. Added some more non substantive renames on top of @realbigsean 's commit.
Note: this doesn't include the proposer boosting changes in kintsugi v3.
This devnet isn't running with the proposer boosting fork choice changes so if we are looking to merge https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2822 into `unstable`, then I think we should just maintain this branch for the devnet temporarily.

Various Changes to Conform Closer to Merge Spec
## Issue Addressed
Closes#1996
## Proposed Changes
Run a second `Logger` via `sloggers` which logs to a file in the background with:
- separate `debug-level` for background and terminal logging
- the ability to limit log size
- rotation through a customizable number of log files
- an option to compress old log files (`.gz` format)
Add the following new CLI flags:
- `--logfile-debug-level`: The debug level of the log files
- `--logfile-max-size`: The maximum size of each log file
- `--logfile-max-number`: The number of old log files to store
- `--logfile-compress`: Whether to compress old log files
By default background logging uses the `debug` log level and saves logfiles to:
- Beacon Node: `$HOME/.lighthouse/$network/beacon/logs/beacon.log`
- Validator Client: `$HOME/.lighthouse/$network/validators/logs/validator.log`
Or, when using the `--datadir` flag:
`$datadir/beacon/logs/beacon.log` and `$datadir/validators/logs/validator.log`
Once rotated, old logs are stored like so: `beacon.log.1`, `beacon.log.2` etc.
> Note: `beacon.log.1` is always newer than `beacon.log.2`.
## Additional Info
Currently the default value of `--logfile-max-size` is 200 (MB) and `--logfile-max-number` is 5.
This means that the maximum storage space that the logs will take up by default is 1.2GB.
(200MB x 5 from old log files + <200MB the current logfile being written to)
Happy to adjust these default values to whatever people think is appropriate.
It's also worth noting that when logging to a file, we lose our custom `slog` formatting. This means the logfile logs look like this:
```
Oct 27 16:02:50.305 INFO Lighthouse started, version: Lighthouse/v2.0.1-8edd9d4+, module: lighthouse:413
Oct 27 16:02:50.305 INFO Configured for network, name: prater, module: lighthouse:414
```
## Issue Addressed
Resolves#2545
## Proposed Changes
Adds the long-overdue EF tests for fork choice. Although we had pretty good coverage via other implementations that closely followed our approach, it is nonetheless important for us to implement these tests too.
During testing I found that we were using a hard-coded `SAFE_SLOTS_TO_UPDATE_JUSTIFIED` value rather than one from the `ChainSpec`. This caused a failure during a minimal preset test. This doesn't represent a risk to mainnet or testnets, since the hard-coded value matched the mainnet preset.
## Failing Cases
There is one failing case which is presently marked as `SkippedKnownFailure`:
```
case 4 ("new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor") from /home/paul/development/lighthouse/testing/ef_tests/consensus-spec-tests/tests/minimal/phase0/fork_choice/on_block/pyspec_tests/new_finalized_slot_is_justified_checkpoint_ancestor failed with NotEqual:
head check failed: Got Head { slot: Slot(40), root: 0x9183dbaed4191a862bd307d476e687277fc08469fc38618699863333487703e7 } | Expected Head { slot: Slot(24), root: 0x105b49b51bf7103c182aa58860b039550a89c05a4675992e2af703bd02c84570 }
```
This failure is due to #2741. It's not a particularly high priority issue at the moment, so we fix it after merging this PR.
## Issue Addressed
@paulhauner noticed that when we send head events, we use the block root from `new_head` in `fork_choice_internal`, but calculate `dependent_root` and `previous_dependent_root` using the `canonical_head`. This is normally fine because `new_head` updates the `canonical_head` in `fork_choice_internal`, but it's possible we have a reorg updating `canonical_head` before our head events are sent. So this PR ensures `dependent_root` and `previous_dependent_root` are always derived from the state associated with `new_head`.

## Issue Addressed
Resolves#2612
## Proposed Changes
Implements both the checks mentioned in the original issue.
1. Verifies the `randao_reveal` in the beacon node
2. Cross checks the proposer index after getting back the block from the beacon node.
## Additional info
The block production time increases by ~10x because of the signature verification on the beacon node (based on the `beacon_block_production_process_seconds` metric) when running on a local testnet.
## Proposed Changes
Add several metrics for the number of attestations in the op pool. These give us a way to observe the number of valid, non-trivial attestations during block packing rather than just the size of the entire op pool.
