## Issue Addressed
A 204 from the connected builder just indicates there's no payload available from the builder, not that there's an issue. So I don't actually think this should be a warn. During the merge transition when we are pre-finalization a 204 will actually be expected. And maybe even longer if the relay chooses to delay providing payloads for a longer period post-merge.

## Proposed Changes
There was a regression in #3244 (released in v2.4.0) which stopped pruning fork choice (see [here](https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3244#discussion_r935187485)).
This would form a very slow memory leak, using ~100mb per month. The release has been out for ~11 days, so users should not be seeing a dangerous increase in memory, *yet*.

Fixes an issue identified by @remyroy whereby we were logging a recommendation to use `--eth1-endpoints` on merge-ready setups (when the execution layer was out of sync).
## Proposed Changes
I took the opportunity to clean up the other eth1-related logs, replacing "eth1" by "deposit contract" or "execution" as appropriate.
I've downgraded the severity of the `CRIT` log to `ERRO` and removed most of the recommendation text. The reason being that users lacking an execution endpoint will be informed by the new `WARN Not merge ready` log pre-Bellatrix, or the regular errors from block verification post-Bellatrix.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
This PR will make Lighthouse return blocks with invalid payloads via the API with `execution_optimistic = true`. This seems a bit awkward, however I think it's better than returning a 404 or some other error.
Let's consider the case where the only possible head is invalid (#3370 deals with this). In such a scenario all of the duties endpoints will start failing because the head is invalid. I think it would be better if the duties endpoints continue to work, because it's likely that even though the head is invalid the duties are still based upon valid blocks and we want the VC to have them cached. There's no risk to the VC here because we won't actually produce an attestation pointing to an invalid head.
Ultimately, I don't think it's particularly important for us to distinguish between optimistic and invalid blocks on the API. Neither should be trusted and the only *real* reason that we track this is so we can try and fork around the invalid blocks.

Extends https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3062, adding pre-bellatrix block support on blinded endpoints and allowing the normal proposal flow (local payload construction) on blinded endpoints. This resulted in better fallback logic because the VC will not have to switch endpoints on failure in the BN <> Builder API, the BN can just fallback immediately and without repeating block processing that it shouldn't need to. We can also keep VC fallback from the VC<>BN API's blinded endpoint to full endpoint.
## Proposed Changes
- Pre-bellatrix blocks on blinded endpoints
- Add a new `PayloadCache` to the execution layer
- Better fallback-from-builder logic
## Todos
- [x] Remove VC transition logic
- [x] Add logic to only enable builder flow after Merge transition finalization
- [x] Tests
- [x] Fix metrics
- [x] Rustdocs

## Proposed Changes
There are scenarios where the only viable head will have an invalid execution payload, in this scenario the `get_head` function on `proto_array` will return an error. We must recover from this scenario by importing blocks from the network.
This PR stops `BeaconChain::recompute_head` from returning an error so that we can't accidentally start down-scoring peers or aborting block import just because the current head has an invalid payload.
## Reviewer Notes
The following changes are included:
1. Allow `fork_choice.get_head` to fail gracefully in `BeaconChain::process_block` when trying to update the `early_attester_cache`; simply don't add the block to the cache rather than aborting the entire process.
1. Don't return an error from `BeaconChain::recompute_head_at_current_slot` and `BeaconChain::recompute_head` to defensively prevent calling functions from aborting any process just because the fork choice function failed to run.
- This should have practically no effect, since most callers were still continuing if recomputing the head failed.
- The outlier is that the API will return 200 rather than a 500 when fork choice fails.
1. Add the `ProtoArrayForkChoice::set_all_blocks_to_optimistic` function to recover from the scenario where we've rebooted and the persisted fork choice has an invalid head.

## Proposed Changes
Returns a `ResourceUnavailable` rpc error if we are unable to serve full payloads to blocks by root and range requests because the execution layer is not synced.
## Additional Info
This PR also changes the penalties such that a `ResourceUnavailable` error is only penalized if it is an outgoing request. If we are syncing and aren't getting full block responses, then we don't have use for the peer. However, this might not be true for the incoming request case. We let the peer decide in this case if we are still useful or if we should be banned.

## Issue Addressed
As specified in the [Beacon Chain API specs](https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/blob/master/apis/node/syncing.yaml#L32-L35) we should return `is_optimistic` as part of the response to a query for the `eth/v1/node/syncing` endpoint.

## Proposed Changes
- Move the log for fee recipient checks from proposer cache insertion into block proposal so we are directly checking what we get from the EE
- Only log when there is a discrepancy with the local EE, not when using the builder API. In the `builder-api` branch there is an `info` log when there is a discrepancy, I think it is more likely there will be a difference in fee recipient with the builder api because proposer payments might be made via a transaction in the block. Not really sure what patterns will become commong.
- Upgrade the log from a `warn` to an `error` - not actually sure which we want, but I think this is worth an error because the local EE with default transaction ordering I think should pretty much always use the provided fee recipient
- add a `strict-fee-recipient` flag to the VC so we only sign blocks with matching fee recipients. Falls back from the builder API to the local API if there is a discrepancy .

## Issue Addressed
While messing with the deposit snapshot stuff, I had my proxy running and noticed the beacon node wasn't syncing the block cache continuously. There were long periods where it did nothing. I believe this was caused by a logical error introduced in #3234 that dealt with an issue that arose while syncing the block cache on Ropsten.
The problem is that when the block cache is initially syncing, it will trigger the logic that detects the cache is far behind the execution chain in time. This will trigger a batch syncing mechanism which is intended to sync further ahead than the chain would normally. But the batch syncing is actually slower than the range this function usually estimates (in this scenario).
## Proposed Changes
I believe I've fixed this function by taking the end of the range to be the maximum of (batch syncing range, usual range).
I've also renamed and restructured some things a bit. It's equivalent logic but I think it's more clear what's going on.

## Backwards Incompatible
There is a very minor breaking change with the way the API now handles requests to `beacon/blocks/{block_id}/root` and `beacon/states/{state_id}/root` when `block_id` or `state_id` is the `Root` variant of `BlockId` and `StateId` respectively.
Previously a request to a non-existent root would simply echo the root back to the requester:
```
curl "http://localhost:5052/eth/v1/beacon/states/0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa/root"
{"data":{"root":"0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"}}
```
Now it will return a `404`:
```
curl "http://localhost:5052/eth/v1/beacon/blocks/0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa/root"
{"code":404,"message":"NOT_FOUND: beacon block with root 0xaaaa…aaaa","stacktraces":[]}
```
In addition to this is the block root `0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000` previously would return the genesis block. It will now return a `404`:
```
curl "http://localhost:5052/eth/v1/beacon/blocks/0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
{"code":404,"message":"NOT_FOUND: beacon block with root 0x0000…0000","stacktraces":[]}
```
## Additional Info
- `execution_optimistic` is always set, and will return `false` pre-Bellatrix. I am also open to the idea of doing something like `#[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]`.
- The value of `execution_optimistic` is set to `false` where possible. Any computation that is reliant on the `head` will simply use the `ExecutionStatus` of the head (unless the head block is pre-Bellatrix).

- Refactor the `get_payload` routine to use the new `ForkchoiceUpdateParameters` struct rather than just the `finalized_block_hash`. I think this is a nice simplification and that the old way of computing the `finalized_block_hash` was unnecessary, but if anyone sees reason to keep that approach LMK.

There are a number of cases during block processing where we might get an `ExecutionPayloadError` but we shouldn't penalize peers.

I created a function to make it explicit when we should and should not penalize peers and I used that function in all places where this logic is needed. This way we won't make the same mistake if we add another variant of `ExecutionPayloadError` in the future.

## Proposed Changes
After some discussion in Discord with @mkalinin it was raised that it was not the intention of the engine API to have CLs validate the `latest_valid_hash` (LVH) and all ancestors.
Whilst I believe the engine API is being updated such that the LVH *must* identify a valid hash or be set to some junk value, I'm not confident that we can rely upon the LVH as being valid (at least for now) due to the confusion surrounding it.
Being able to validate blocks via the LVH is a relatively minor optimisation; if the LVH value ends up becoming our head we'll send an fcU and get the VALID status there.
Falsely marking a block as valid has serious consequences and since it's a minor optimisation to use LVH I think that we don't take the risk.
For clarity, we will still *invalidate* the *descendants* of the LVH, we just wont *validate* the *ancestors*.

## Proposed Changes
Continues from PRs by @divagant-martian to gradually remove EL redundancy (see #3284, #3257).
This PR achieves:
- Removes the `broadcast` and `first_success` methods. The functional impact is that every request to the EE will always be tried immediately, regardless of the cached `EngineState` (this resolves#3176). Previously we would check the engine state before issuing requests, this doesn't make sense in a single-EE world; there's only one EE so we might as well try it for every request.
- Runs the upcheck/watchdog routine once per slot rather than thrice. When we had multiple EEs frequent polling was useful to try and detect when the primary EE had come back online and we could switch to it. That's not as relevant now.
- Always creates logs in the `Engines::upcheck` function. Previously we would mute some logs since they could get really noisy when one EE was down but others were functioning fine. Now we only have one EE and are upcheck-ing it less, it makes sense to always produce logs.
This PR purposefully does not achieve:
- Updating all occurances of "engines" to "engine". I'm trying to keep the diff small and manageable. We can come back for this.

Build the committee cache for the new `POST /lighthouse/analysis/block_rewards` API. Due to an unusual quirk of the total active balance cache the API endpoint would sometimes fail after loading a state from disk which had a current epoch cache _but not_ a total active balance cache. This PR adds calls to build the caches immediately before they're required, and has been running smoothly with `blockdreamer` the last few days.
## Issue Addressed
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3270
## Proposed Changes
Optimize the calculation of historic beacon committees in the HTTP API.
This is achieved by allowing committee caches to be constructed for historic epochs, and constructing these committee caches on the fly in the API. This is much faster than reconstructing the state at the requested epoch, which usually takes upwards of 20s, and sometimes minutes with SPRP=8192. The depth of the `randao_mixes` array allows us to look back 64K epochs/0.8 years from a single state, which is pretty awesome!
We always use the `state_id` provided by the caller, but will return a nice 400 error if the epoch requested is out of range for the state requested, e.g.
```bash
# Prater
curl "http://localhost:5052/eth/v1/beacon/states/3170304/committees?epoch=33538"
```
```json
{"code":400,"message":"BAD_REQUEST: epoch out of bounds, try state at slot 1081344","stacktraces":[]}
```
Queries will be fastest when aligned to `slot % SPRP == 0`, so the hint suggests a slot that is 0 mod 8192.
## Overview
This rather extensive PR achieves two primary goals:
1. Uses the finalized/justified checkpoints of fork choice (FC), rather than that of the head state.
2. Refactors fork choice, block production and block processing to `async` functions.
Additionally, it achieves:
- Concurrent forkchoice updates to the EL and cache pruning after a new head is selected.
- Concurrent "block packing" (attestations, etc) and execution payload retrieval during block production.
- Concurrent per-block-processing and execution payload verification during block processing.
- The `Arc`-ification of `SignedBeaconBlock` during block processing (it's never mutated, so why not?):
- I had to do this to deal with sending blocks into spawned tasks.
- Previously we were cloning the beacon block at least 2 times during each block processing, these clones are either removed or turned into cheaper `Arc` clones.
- We were also `Box`-ing and un-`Box`-ing beacon blocks as they moved throughout the networking crate. This is not a big deal, but it's nice to avoid shifting things between the stack and heap.
- Avoids cloning *all the blocks* in *every chain segment* during sync.
- It also has the potential to clean up our code where we need to pass an *owned* block around so we can send it back in the case of an error (I didn't do much of this, my PR is already big enough 😅)
- The `BeaconChain::HeadSafetyStatus` struct was removed. It was an old relic from prior merge specs.
For motivation for this change, see https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3244#issuecomment-1160963273
## Changes to `canonical_head` and `fork_choice`
Previously, the `BeaconChain` had two separate fields:
```
canonical_head: RwLock<Snapshot>,
fork_choice: RwLock<BeaconForkChoice>
```
Now, we have grouped these values under a single struct:
```
canonical_head: CanonicalHead {
cached_head: RwLock<Arc<Snapshot>>,
fork_choice: RwLock<BeaconForkChoice>
}
```
Apart from ergonomics, the only *actual* change here is wrapping the canonical head snapshot in an `Arc`. This means that we no longer need to hold the `cached_head` (`canonical_head`, in old terms) lock when we want to pull some values from it. This was done to avoid deadlock risks by preventing functions from acquiring (and holding) the `cached_head` and `fork_choice` locks simultaneously.
## Breaking Changes
### The `state` (root) field in the `finalized_checkpoint` SSE event
Consider the scenario where epoch `n` is just finalized, but `start_slot(n)` is skipped. There are two state roots we might in the `finalized_checkpoint` SSE event:
1. The state root of the finalized block, which is `get_block(finalized_checkpoint.root).state_root`.
4. The state root at slot of `start_slot(n)`, which would be the state from (1), but "skipped forward" through any skip slots.
Previously, Lighthouse would choose (2). However, we can see that when [Teku generates that event](de2b2801c8/data/beaconrestapi/src/main/java/tech/pegasys/teku/beaconrestapi/handlers/v1/events/EventSubscriptionManager.java (L171-L182)) it uses [`getStateRootFromBlockRoot`](de2b2801c8/data/provider/src/main/java/tech/pegasys/teku/api/ChainDataProvider.java (L336-L341)) which uses (1).
I have switched Lighthouse from (2) to (1). I think it's a somewhat arbitrary choice between the two, where (1) is easier to compute and is consistent with Teku.
## Notes for Reviewers
I've renamed `BeaconChain::fork_choice` to `BeaconChain::recompute_head`. Doing this helped ensure I broke all previous uses of fork choice and I also find it more descriptive. It describes an action and can't be confused with trying to get a reference to the `ForkChoice` struct.
I've changed the ordering of SSE events when a block is received. It used to be `[block, finalized, head]` and now it's `[block, head, finalized]`. It was easier this way and I don't think we were making any promises about SSE event ordering so it's not "breaking".
I've made it so fork choice will run when it's first constructed. I did this because I wanted to have a cached version of the last call to `get_head`. Ensuring `get_head` has been run *at least once* means that the cached values doesn't need to wrapped in an `Option`. This was fairly simple, it just involved passing a `slot` to the constructor so it knows *when* it's being run. When loading a fork choice from the store and a slot clock isn't handy I've just used the `slot` that was saved in the `fork_choice_store`. That seems like it would be a faithful representation of the slot when we saved it.
I added the `genesis_time: u64` to the `BeaconChain`. It's small, constant and nice to have around.
Since we're using FC for the fin/just checkpoints, we no longer get the `0x00..00` roots at genesis. You can see I had to remove a work-around in `ef-tests` here: b56be3bc2. I can't find any reason why this would be an issue, if anything I think it'll be better since the genesis-alias has caught us out a few times (0x00..00 isn't actually a real root). Edit: I did find a case where the `network` expected the 0x00..00 alias and patched it here: 3f26ac3e2.
You'll notice a lot of changes in tests. Generally, tests should be functionally equivalent. Here are the things creating the most diff-noise in tests:
- Changing tests to be `tokio::async` tests.
- Adding `.await` to fork choice, block processing and block production functions.
- Refactor of the `canonical_head` "API" provided by the `BeaconChain`. E.g., `chain.canonical_head.cached_head()` instead of `chain.canonical_head.read()`.
- Wrapping `SignedBeaconBlock` in an `Arc`.
- In the `beacon_chain/tests/block_verification`, we can't use the `lazy_static` `CHAIN_SEGMENT` variable anymore since it's generated with an async function. We just generate it in each test, not so efficient but hopefully insignificant.
I had to disable `rayon` concurrent tests in the `fork_choice` tests. This is because the use of `rayon` and `block_on` was causing a panic.

Lays the groundwork for builder API changes by implementing the beacon-API's new `register_validator` endpoint
## Proposed Changes
- Add a routine in the VC that runs on startup (re-try until success), once per epoch or whenever `suggested_fee_recipient` is updated, signing `ValidatorRegistrationData` and sending it to the BN.
- TODO: `gas_limit` config options https://github.com/ethereum/builder-specs/issues/17
- BN only sends VC registration data to builders on demand, but VC registration data *does update* the BN's prepare proposer cache and send an updated fcU to a local EE. This is necessary for fee recipient consistency between the blinded and full block flow in the event of fallback. Having the BN only send registration data to builders on demand gives feedback directly to the VC about relay status. Also, since the BN has no ability to sign these messages anyways (so couldn't refresh them if it wanted), and validator registration is independent of the BN head, I think this approach makes sense.
- Adds upcoming consensus spec changes for this PR https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2884
- I initially applied the bit mask based on a configured application domain.. but I ended up just hard coding it here instead because that's how it's spec'd in the builder repo.
- Should application mask appear in the api?

Add a new HTTP endpoint `POST /lighthouse/analysis/block_rewards` which takes a vec of `BeaconBlock`s as input and outputs the `BlockReward`s for them.
Augment the `BlockReward` struct with the attestation data for attestations in the block, which simplifies access to this information from blockprint. Using attestation data I've been able to make blockprint up to 95% accurate across Prysm/Lighthouse/Teku/Nimbus. I hope to go even higher using a bunch of synthetic blocks produced for Prysm/Nimbus/Lodestar, which are underrepresented in the current training data.
## Issue Addressed
Fixes#1864 and a bunch of other closed but unresolved issues.
## Proposed Changes
Allows the deposit caching to recover from `NonConsecutive` deposit errors by resetting the last processed block to the last valid deposit's block number. Still not sure of the underlying cause of this error, but this should recover the cache so we don't need `--eth1-purge-cache` anymore 🎉
A huge thanks to @one-three-three-seven for reproducing the error and providing the data that helped testing out the fix 🙌
Still needs a few more tests.
## Proposed Changes
Expand the set of paths tracked by the HTTP API metrics to include all paths hit by the validator client.
These paths were only partially updated for Altair, so we were missing some of the sync committee and v2 APIs.

Deprecates the step parameter in the blocks by range request
## Proposed Changes
- Modifies the BlocksByRangeRequest type to remove the step parameter and everywhere we took it into account before
- Adds a new type to still handle coding and decoding of requests that use the parameter
## Additional Info
I went with a deprecation over the type itself so that requests received outside `lighthouse_network` don't even need to deal with this parameter. After the deprecation period just removing the Old blocks by range request should be straightforward
## Issue Addressed
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2944
## Proposed Changes
Remove snapshots from the cache during sync rather than cloning them. This reduces unnecessary cloning and memory fragmentation during sync.
## Additional Info
This PR relies on the fact that the `block_delay` cache is not populated for blocks from sync. Relying on block delay may have the side effect that a change in `block_delay` calculation could lead to: a) more clones, if block delays are added for syncing blocks or b) less clones, if blocks near the head are erroneously provided without a `block_delay`. Case (a) would be a regression to the current status quo, and (b) is low-risk given we know that the snapshot cache is current susceptible to misses (hence `tree-states`).
## Issue Addressed
#2820
## Proposed Changes
The problem is that validator_monitor_prev_epoch metrics are updated only if there is EpochSummary present in summaries map for the previous epoch and it is not the case for the offline validator. Ensure that EpochSummary is inserted into summaries map also for the offline validators.

## Issue Addressed
Fixes a timing issue that results in spurious fork choice notifier failures:
```
WARN Error signalling fork choice waiter slot: 3962270, error: ForkChoiceSignalOutOfOrder { current: Slot(3962271), latest: Slot(3962270) }, service: beacon
```
There’s a fork choice run that is scheduled to run at the start of every slot by the `timer`, which creates a 12s interval timer when the beacon node starts up. The problem is that if there’s a bit of clock drift that gets corrected via NTP (or a leap second for that matter) then these 12s intervals will cease to line up with the start of the slot. This then creates the mismatch in slot number that we see above.
Lighthouse also runs fork choice 500ms before the slot begins, and these runs are what is conflicting with the start-of-slot runs. This means that the warning in current versions of Lighthouse is mostly cosmetic because fork choice is up to date with all but the most recent 500ms of attestations (which usually isn’t many).
## Proposed Changes
Fix the per-slot timer so that it continually re-calculates the duration to the start of the next slot and waits for that.
A side-effect of this change is that we may skip slots if the per-slot task takes >12s to run, but I think this is an unlikely scenario and an acceptable compromise.
## Issue Addressed
Reduces the effect of late blocks on overall node buildup
## Proposed Changes
change the capacity of the channels used to send work for reprocessing in the beacon processor, and to send back to the main processor task, to be 75% of the capacity of the channel for receiving new events
## Additional Info
The issues we've seen suggest we should still evaluate node performance under stress, with late blocks being a big factor.
Other changes that could help:
1. right now we have a cap for queued attestations for reprocessing that applies to the sum of aggregated and unaggregated attestations. We could consider adding a separate cap that favors aggregated ones.
2. solving #2848
## Issue Addressed
Fix for the eth1 cache sync issue observed on Ropsten.
## Proposed Changes
Ropsten blocks are so infrequent that they broke our algorithm for downloading eth1 blocks. We currently try to download forwards from the last block in our cache to the block with block number [`remote_highest_block - FOLLOW_DISTANCE + FOLLOW_DISTANCE / ETH1_BLOCK_TIME_TOLERANCE_FACTOR`](6f732986f1/beacon_node/eth1/src/service.rs (L489-L492)). With the tolerance set to 4 this is insufficient because we lag by 1536 blocks, which is more like ~14 hours on Ropsten. This results in us having an incomplete eth1 cache, because we should cache all blocks between -16h and -8h. Even if we were to set the tolerance to 2 for the largest allowance, we would only look back 1024 blocks which is still more than 8 hours.
For example consider this block https://ropsten.etherscan.io/block/12321390. The block from 1536 blocks earlier is 14 hours and 20 minutes before it: https://ropsten.etherscan.io/block/12319854. The block from 1024 blocks earlier is https://ropsten.etherscan.io/block/12320366, 8 hours and 48 minutes before.
- This PR introduces a new CLI flag called `--eth1-cache-follow-distance` which can be used to set the distance manually.
- A new dynamic catchup mechanism is added which detects when the cache is lagging the true eth1 chain and tries to download more blocks within the follow distance in order to catch up.

Emit a `WARN` log whenever the value of `fee_recipient` as returned from the EE is different from the value of `suggested_fee_recipient` as set on the BN, for example by the `--suggested-fee-recipient` CLI flag.
## Additional Info
I have set the log level to `WARN` since it is legal behaviour (meaning it isn't really an error but is important to know when it is occurring).
If we feel like this behaviour is almost always undesired (caused by a misconfiguration or malicious EE) then an `ERRO` log would be more appropriate. Happy to change it in that case.

## Proposed Changes
Move chain segments coming from back-fill syncing from highest priority to lowest
## Additional Info
If this does not solve the issue, next steps would be lowering the batch size for back-fill sync, and as last resort throttling the processing of these chain segments
## Issue Addressed
Fixes an issue that @paulhauner found with the v2.3.0 release candidate whereby the fork choice runs introduced by #3168 tripped over each other during sync:
```
May 24 23:06:40.542 WARN Error signalling fork choice waiter slot: 3884129, error: ForkChoiceSignalOutOfOrder { current: Slot(3884131), latest: Slot(3884129) }, service: beacon
```
This can occur because fork choice is called from the state advance _and_ the per-slot task. When one of these runs takes a long time it can end up finishing after a run from a later slot, tripping the error above. The problem is resolved by not running either of these fork choice calls during sync.
Additionally, these parallel fork choice runs were causing issues in the database:
```
May 24 07:49:05.098 WARN Found a chain that should already have been pruned, head_slot: 92925, head_block_root: 0xa76c7bf1b98e54ed4b0d8686efcfdf853484e6c2a4c67e91cbf19e5ad1f96b17, service: beacon
May 24 07:49:05.101 WARN Database migration failed error: HotColdDBError(FreezeSlotError { current_split_slot: Slot(92608), proposed_split_slot: Slot(92576) }), service: beacon
```
In this case, two fork choice calls triggering the finalization processing were being processed out of order due to differences in their processing time, causing the background migrator to try to advance finalization _backwards_ 😳. Removing the parallel fork choice runs from sync effectively addresses the issue, because these runs are most likely to have different finalized checkpoints (because of the speed at which fork choice advances during sync). In theory it's still possible to process updates out of order if any other fork choice runs end up completing out of order, but this should be much less common. Fixing out of order fork choice runs in general is difficult as it requires architectural changes like serialising fork choice updates through a single thread, or locking fork choice along with the head when it is mutated (https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3175).
## Proposed Changes
* Don't run per-slot fork choice during sync (if head is older than 4 slots)
* Don't run state-advance fork choice during sync (if head is older than 4 slots)
* Check for monotonic finalization updates in the background migrator. This is a good defensive check to have, and I'm not sure why we didn't have it before (we may have had it and wrongly removed it).
*This PR was adapted from @pawanjay176's work in #3197.*

https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3168 added calls to `fork_choice` in `BeaconChain::per_slot_task` function. This leads to a panic as `per_slot_task` is called from an async context which calls fork choice, which then calls `block_on`.

## Issue Addressed
This fixes the low-hanging Clippy lints introduced in Rust 1.61 (due any hour now). It _ignores_ one lint, because fixing it requires a structural refactor of the validator client that needs to be done delicately. I've started on that refactor and will create another PR that can be reviewed in more depth in the coming days. I think we should merge this PR in the meantime to unblock CI.
## Issue Addressed
Upcoming spec change https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2878
## Proposed Changes
1. Run fork choice at the start of every slot, and wait for this run to complete before proposing a block.
2. As an optimisation, also run fork choice 3/4 of the way through the slot (at 9s), _dequeueing attestations for the next slot_.
3. Remove the fork choice run from the state advance timer that occurred before advancing the state.
## Additional Info
### Block Proposal Accuracy
This change makes us more likely to propose on top of the correct head in the presence of re-orgs with proposer boost in play. The main scenario that this change is designed to address is described in the linked spec issue.
### Attestation Accuracy
This change _also_ makes us more likely to attest to the correct head. Currently in the case of a skipped slot at `slot` we only run fork choice 9s into `slot - 1`. This means the attestations from `slot - 1` aren't taken into consideration, and any boost applied to the block from `slot - 1` is not removed (it should be). In the language of the linked spec issue, this means we are liable to attest to C, even when the majority voting weight has already caused a re-org to B.
### Why remove the call before the state advance?
If we've run fork choice at the start of the slot then it has already dequeued all the attestations from the previous slot, which are the only ones eligible to influence the head in the current slot. Running fork choice again is unnecessary (unless we run it for the next slot and try to pre-empt a re-org, but I don't currently think this is a great idea).
### Performance
Based on Prater testing this adds about 5-25ms of runtime to block proposal times, which are 500-1000ms on average (and spike to 5s+ sometimes due to state handling issues 😢 ). I believe this is a small enough penalty to enable it by default, with the option to disable it via the new flag `--fork-choice-before-proposal-timeout 0`. Upcoming work on block packing and state representation will also reduce block production times in general, while removing the spikes.
### Implementation
Fork choice gets invoked at the start of the slot via the `per_slot_task` function called from the slot timer. It then uses a condition variable to signal to block production that fork choice has been updated. This is a bit funky, but it seems to work. One downside of the timer-based approach is that it doesn't happen automatically in most of the tests. The test added by this PR has to trigger the run manually.

# Description
Since the `TaskExecutor` currently requires a `Weak<Runtime>`, it's impossible to use it in an async test where the `Runtime` is created outside our scope. Whilst we *could* create a new `Runtime` instance inside the async test, dropping that `Runtime` would cause a panic (you can't drop a `Runtime` in an async context).
To address this issue, this PR creates the `enum Handle`, which supports either:
- A `Weak<Runtime>` (for use in our production code)
- A `Handle` to a runtime (for use in testing)
In theory, there should be no change to the behaviour of our production code (beyond some slightly different descriptions in HTTP 500 errors), or even our tests. If there is no change, you might ask *"why bother?"*. There are two PRs (#3070 and #3175) that are waiting on these fixes to introduce some new tests. Since we've added the EL to the `BeaconChain` (for the merge), we are now doing more async stuff in tests.
I've also added a `RuntimeExecutor` to the `BeaconChainTestHarness`. Whilst that's not immediately useful, it will become useful in the near future with all the new async testing.
Code simplifications using `Option`/`Result` combinators to make pattern-matches a tad simpler.
Opinions on these loosely held, happy to adjust in review.

## Proposed Changes
Reduce post-merge disk usage by not storing finalized execution payloads in Lighthouse's database.
⚠️ **This is achieved in a backwards-incompatible way for networks that have already merged** ⚠️. Kiln users and shadow fork enjoyers will be unable to downgrade after running the code from this PR. The upgrade migration may take several minutes to run, and can't be aborted after it begins.
The main changes are:
- New column in the database called `ExecPayload`, keyed by beacon block root.
- The `BeaconBlock` column now stores blinded blocks only.
- Lots of places that previously used full blocks now use blinded blocks, e.g. analytics APIs, block replay in the DB, etc.
- On finalization:
- `prune_abanonded_forks` deletes non-canonical payloads whilst deleting non-canonical blocks.
- `migrate_db` deletes finalized canonical payloads whilst deleting finalized states.
- Conversions between blinded and full blocks are implemented in a compositional way, duplicating some work from Sean's PR #3134.
- The execution layer has a new `get_payload_by_block_hash` method that reconstructs a payload using the EE's `eth_getBlockByHash` call.
- I've tested manually that it works on Kiln, using Geth and Nethermind.
- This isn't necessarily the most efficient method, and new engine APIs are being discussed to improve this: https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/pull/146.
- We're depending on the `ethers` master branch, due to lots of recent changes. We're also using a workaround for https://github.com/gakonst/ethers-rs/issues/1134.
- Payload reconstruction is used in the HTTP API via `BeaconChain::get_block`, which is now `async`. Due to the `async` fn, the `blocking_json` wrapper has been removed.
- Payload reconstruction is used in network RPC to serve blocks-by-{root,range} responses. Here the `async` adjustment is messier, although I think I've managed to come up with a reasonable compromise: the handlers take the `SendOnDrop` by value so that they can drop it on _task completion_ (after the `fn` returns). Still, this is introducing disk reads onto core executor threads, which may have a negative performance impact (thoughts appreciated).
## Additional Info
- [x] For performance it would be great to remove the cloning of full blocks when converting them to blinded blocks to write to disk. I'm going to experiment with a `put_block` API that takes the block by value, breaks it into a blinded block and a payload, stores the blinded block, and then re-assembles the full block for the caller.
- [x] We should measure the latency of blocks-by-root and blocks-by-range responses.
- [x] We should add integration tests that stress the payload reconstruction (basic tests done, issue for more extensive tests: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3159)
- [x] We should (manually) test the schema v9 migration from several prior versions, particularly as blocks have changed on disk and some migrations rely on being able to load blocks.

## Issue Addressed
Fix a panic due to misuse of the Tokio executor when processing a forkchoiceUpdated response. We were previously calling `process_invalid_execution_payload` from the async function `update_execution_engine_forkchoice_async`, which resulted in a panic because `process_invalid_execution_payload` contains a call to fork choice, which ultimately calls `block_on`.
An example backtrace can be found here: https://gist.github.com/michaelsproul/ac5da03e203d6ffac672423eaf52fb20
## Proposed Changes
Wrap the call to `process_invalid_execution_payload` in a `spawn_blocking` so that `block_on` is no longer called from an async context.
## Additional Info
- I've been thinking about how to catch bugs like this with static analysis (a new Clippy lint).
- The payload validation tests have been re-worked to support distinct responses from the mock EE for newPayload and forkchoiceUpdated. Three new tests have been added covering the `Invalid`, `InvalidBlockHash` and `InvalidTerminalBlock` cases.
- I think we need a bunch more tests of different legal and illegal variations

I also needed something that could produce attestations to optimistic blocks in order to simulate scenarios where the justified checkpoint is determined invalid (if no one would attest to an optimistic block, we could never justify it and then flip it to invalid).

In very rare occasions we've seen most if not all our peers in a chain with which we don't agree. Purging these peers can take a very long time: number of retries of the chain. Meanwhile sync is caught in a loop trying the chain again and again. This makes it so that we fast track purging peers via registering the failed chain to prevent retrying for some time (30 seconds). Longer times could be dangerous since a chain can fail if a batch fails to download for example. In this case, I think it's still acceptable to fast track purging peers since they are nor providing the required info anyway

## Proposed Changes
https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3133 changed the rpc type limits to be fork aware i.e. if our current fork based on wall clock slot is Altair, then we apply only altair rpc type limits. This is a bug because phase0 blocks can still be sent over rpc and phase 0 block minimum size is smaller than altair block minimum size. So a phase0 block with `size < SIGNED_BEACON_BLOCK_ALTAIR_MIN` will return an `InvalidData` error as it doesn't pass the rpc types bound check.
This error can be seen when we try syncing pre-altair blocks with size smaller than `SIGNED_BEACON_BLOCK_ALTAIR_MIN`.
This PR fixes the issue by also accounting for forks earlier than current_fork in the rpc limits calculation in the `rpc_block_limits_by_fork` function. I decided to hardcode the limits in the function because that seemed simpler than calculating previous forks based on current fork and doing a min across forks. Adding a new fork variant is simple and can the limits can be easily checked in a review.
Adds unit tests and modifies the syncing simulator to check the syncing from across fork boundaries.
The syncing simulator's block 1 would always be of phase 0 minimum size (404 bytes) which is smaller than altair min block size (since block 1 contains no attestations).

I also updated the clippy lints for the imminent release of Rust 1.60, although LH v2.2.0 will continue to compile using Rust 1.58 (our MSRV).
## Proposed Changes
I did some gardening 🌳 in our dependency tree:
- Remove duplicate versions of `warp` (git vs patch)
- Remove duplicate versions of lots of small deps: `cpufeatures`, `ethabi`, `ethereum-types`, `bitvec`, `nix`, `libsecp256k1`.
- Update MDBX (should resolve#3028). I tested and Lighthouse compiles on Windows 11 now.
- Restore `psutil` back to upstream
- Make some progress updating everything to rand 0.8. There are a few crates stuck on 0.7.
Hopefully this puts us on a better footing for future `cargo audit` issues, and improves compile times slightly.
## Additional Info
Some crates are held back by issues with `zeroize`. libp2p-noise depends on [`chacha20poly1305`](https://crates.io/crates/chacha20poly1305) which depends on zeroize < v1.5, and we can only have one version of zeroize because it's post 1.0 (see https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/6584). The latest version of `zeroize` is v1.5.4, which is used by the new versions of many other crates (e.g. `num-bigint-dig`). Once a new version of chacha20poly1305 is released we can update libp2p-noise and upgrade everything to the latest `zeroize` version.
I've also opened a PR to `blst` related to zeroize: https://github.com/supranational/blst/pull/111

## Proposed Changes
Fix the upper bound for blocks by root responses to be equal to the max merge block size instead of altair.
Further make the rpc response limits fork aware.
## Proposed Changes
Increase the default `--slots-per-restore-point` to 8192 for a 4x reduction in freezer DB disk usage.
Existing nodes that use the previous default of 2048 will be left unchanged. Newly synced nodes (with or without checkpoint sync) will use the new 8192 default.
Long-term we could do away with the freezer DB entirely for validator-only nodes, but this change is much simpler and grants us some extra space in the short term. We can also roll it out gradually across our nodes by purging databases one by one, while keeping the Ansible config the same.
## Additional Info
We ignore a change from 2048 to 8192 if the user hasn't set the 8192 explicitly. We fire a debug log in the case where we do ignore:
```
DEBG Ignoring slots-per-restore-point config in favour of on-disk value, on_disk: 2048, config: 8192
```
## Proposed Changes
Add a `lighthouse db` command with three initial subcommands:
- `lighthouse db version`: print the database schema version.
- `lighthouse db migrate --to N`: manually upgrade (or downgrade!) the database to a different version.
- `lighthouse db inspect --column C`: log the key and size in bytes of every value in a given `DBColumn`.
This PR lays the groundwork for other changes, namely:
- Mark's fast-deposit sync (https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2915), for which I think we should implement a database downgrade (from v9 to v8).
- My `tree-states` work, which already implements a downgrade (v10 to v8).
- Standalone purge commands like `lighthouse db purge-dht` per https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2824.
## Additional Info
I updated the `strum` crate to 0.24.0, which necessitated some changes in the network code to remove calls to deprecated methods.
Thanks to @winksaville for the motivation, and implementation work that I used as a source of inspiration (https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2685).

## Proposed Changes
- Update the JSON-RPC id field for both our request and response objects to be a `serde_json::Value` rather than a `u32`. This field could be a string or a number according to the JSON-RPC 2.0 spec. We only ever set it to a number, but if, for example, we get a response that wraps this number in quotes, we would fail to deserialize it. I think because we're not doing any validation around this id otherwise, we should be less strict with it in this regard.

## Proposed Changes
In the first Goerli shadow-fork, Lighthouse was getting timeouts from Geth which prevented the LH+Geth pair from progressing.
There's not a whole lot of information I can use to set these timeouts. The most interesting pieces of information I have are quotes from Marius from Geth:
- *"Fcu also needs to construct the block which can take 2sec"* ([Discord](https://discord.com/channels/595666850260713488/910910348922589184/958006487052066836))
- *"2 sec should be ok for new payload, weird that it times out"* ([Discord](https://discord.com/channels/595666850260713488/910910348922589184/958006487052066836))
I don't think we should be so worried about getting these timeouts correct now. No one really knows how long the various EEs are going to take, it's a bit too early in development. With these changes I'm giving some headroom so that we don't fail just because EEs are quite optimized enough. I've set the value to 6s (half a mainnet slot), since I think anything beyond 6s is an interesting problem that we want to know about sooner rather than later.

## Proposed Changes
Set the engine state to `EngineState::Offline` if the engine api call fails during broadcast. This caused issues while pausing sync when the execution engine is offline because `EngineState` always returned `Synced`.
## Proposed Changes
Allow Lighthouse to speculatively create blocks via the `/eth/v1/validators/blocks` endpoint by optionally skipping the RANDAO verification that we introduced in #2740. When `verify_randao=false` is passed as a query parameter the `randao_reveal` is not required to be present, and if present will only be lightly checked (must be a valid BLS sig). If `verify_randao` is omitted it defaults to true and Lighthouse behaves exactly as it did previously, hence this PR is backwards-compatible.
I'd like to get this change into `unstable` pretty soon as I've got 3 projects building on top of it:
- [`blockdreamer`](https://github.com/michaelsproul/blockdreamer), which mocks block production every slot in order to fingerprint clients
- analysis of Lighthouse's block packing _optimality_, which uses `blockdreamer` to extract interesting instances of the attestation packing problem
- analysis of Lighthouse's block packing _performance_ (as in speed) on the `tree-states` branch
## Additional Info
Having tested `blockdreamer` with Prysm, Nimbus and Teku I noticed that none of them verify the randao signature on `/eth/v1/validator/blocks`. I plan to open a PR to the `beacon-APIs` repo anyway so that this parameter can be standardised in case the other clients add RANDAO verification by default in future.

## Issue Addressed
#3103
## Proposed Changes
Parse `http-address` and `metrics-address` as `IpAddr` for both the beacon node and validator client to support IPv6 addresses.
Also adjusts parsing of CORS origins to allow for IPv6 addresses.
## Usage
You can now set `http-address` and/or `metrics-address` flags to IPv6 addresses.
For example, the following:
`lighthouse bn --http --http-address :: --metrics --metrics-address ::1`
will expose the beacon node HTTP server on `[::]` (equivalent of `0.0.0.0` in IPv4) and the metrics HTTP server on `localhost` (the equivalent of `127.0.0.1` in IPv4)
The beacon node API can then be accessed by:
`curl "http://[server-ipv6-address]:5052/eth/v1/some_endpoint"`
And the metrics server api can be accessed by:
`curl "http://localhost:5054/metrics"` or by `curl "http://[::1]:5054/metrics"`
## Additional Info
On most Linux distributions the `v6only` flag is set to `false` by default (see the section for the `IPV6_V6ONLY` flag in https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man7/ipv6.7.html) which means IPv4 connections will continue to function on a IPv6 address (providing it is appropriately mapped). This means that even if the Lighthouse API is running on `::` it is also possible to accept IPv4 connections.
However on Windows, this is not the case. The `v6only` flag is set to `true` so binding to `::` will only allow IPv6 connections.

## Proposed Changes

- Run `cargo update`
## Additional Info
I think this release should be published around the 15th of March.
Presently `blocked` for testing on our infrastructure.
## Issue Addressed
This address an issue which was preventing checkpoint-sync.
When the node starts from checkpoint sync, the head block and the finalized block are the same value. We did not respect this when sending a `forkchoiceUpdated` (fcU) call to the EL and were expecting fork choice to hold the *finalized ancestor of the head* and returning an error when it didn't.
This PR uses *only fork choice* for sending fcU updates. This is actually quite nice and avoids some atomicity issues between `chain.canonical_head` and `chain.fork_choice`. Now, whenever `chain.fork_choice.get_head` returns a value we also cache the values required for the next fcU call.
## TODO
- [x] ~~Blocked on #3043~~
- [x] Ensure there isn't a warn message at startup.
## Issue Addressed
Don't send an fcU message at startup if it's pre-genesis. The startup fcU message is not critical, not required by the spec, so it's fine to avoid it for networks that start post-Bellatrix fork.
## Issue Addressed
Resolves#2936
## Proposed Changes
Adds functionality for calling [`validator/prepare_beacon_proposer`](https://ethereum.github.io/beacon-APIs/?urls.primaryName=dev#/Validator/prepareBeaconProposer) in advance.
There is a `BeaconChain::prepare_beacon_proposer` method which, which called, computes the proposer for the next slot. If that proposer has been registered via the `validator/prepare_beacon_proposer` API method, then the `beacon_chain.execution_layer` will be provided the `PayloadAttributes` for us in all future forkchoiceUpdated calls. An artificial forkchoiceUpdated call will be created 4s before each slot, when the head updates and when a validator updates their information.
Additionally, I added strict ordering for calls from the `BeaconChain` to the `ExecutionLayer`. I'm not certain the `ExecutionLayer` will always maintain this ordering, but it's a good start to have consistency from the `BeaconChain`. There are some deadlock opportunities introduced, they are documented in the code.

## Issue Addressed
As discussed on last-night's consensus call, the testnets next week will target the [Kiln Spec v2](https://hackmd.io/@n0ble/kiln-spec).
Presently, we support Kiln V1. V2 is backwards compatible, except for renaming `random` to `prev_randao` in:
- https://github.com/ethereum/execution-apis/pull/180
- https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/pull/2835
With this PR we'll no longer be compatible with the existing Kintsugi and Kiln testnets, however we'll be ready for the testnets next week. I raised this breaking change in the call last night, we are all keen to move forward and break things.
We now target the [`merge-kiln-v2`](https://github.com/MariusVanDerWijden/go-ethereum/tree/merge-kiln-v2) branch for interop with Geth. This required adding the `--http.aauthport` to the tester to avoid a port conflict at startup.
### Changes to exec integration tests
There's some change in the `merge-kiln-v2` version of Geth that means it can't compile on a vanilla Github runner. Bumping the `go` version on the runner solved this issue.
Whilst addressing this, I refactored the `testing/execution_integration` crate to be a *binary* rather than a *library* with tests. This means that we don't need to run the `build.rs` and build Geth whenever someone runs `make lint` or `make test-release`. This is nice for everyday users, but it's also nice for CI so that we can have a specific runner for these tests and we don't need to ensure *all* runners support everything required to build all execution clients.
## More Info
- [x] ~~EF tests are failing since the rename has broken some tests that reference the old field name. I have been told there will be new tests released in the coming days (25/02/22 or 26/02/22).~~
## Issue Addressed
#3006
## Proposed Changes
This PR changes the default behaviour of lighthouse to ignore discovered IPs that are not globally routable. It adds a CLI flag, --enable-local-discovery to permit the non-global IPs in discovery.
NOTE: We should take care in merging this as I will break current set-ups that rely on local IP discovery. I made this the non-default behaviour because we dont really want to be wasting resources attempting to connect to non-routable addresses and we dont want to propagate these to others (on the chance we can connect to one of these local nodes), improving discoveries efficiency.
## Description
This PR adds a single, trivial commit (f5d2b27d78349d5a675a2615eba42cc9ae708094) atop #2986 to resolve a tests compile error. The original author (@ethDreamer) is AFK so I'm getting this one merged ☺️

## Proposed Changes
Adds the functionality to allow blocks to be validated/invalidated after their import as per the [optimistic sync spec](https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/dev/sync/optimistic.md#how-to-optimistically-import-blocks). This means:
- Updating `ProtoArray` to allow flipping the `execution_status` of ancestors/descendants based on payload validity updates.
- Creating separation between `execution_layer` and the `beacon_chain` by creating a `PayloadStatus` struct.
- Refactoring how the `execution_layer` selects a `PayloadStatus` from the multiple statuses returned from multiple EEs.
- Adding testing framework for optimistic imports.
- Add `ExecutionBlockHash(Hash256)` new-type struct to avoid confusion between *beacon block roots* and *execution payload hashes*.
- Add `merge` to [`FORKS`](c3a793fd73/Makefile (L17)) in the `Makefile` to ensure we test the beacon chain with merge settings.
- Fix some tests here that were failing due to a missing execution layer.

## Additional Info
This is notably different to the existing lcli code:
- Uses `BlockReplayer` #2863 and as such runs significantly faster than the previous method.
- Corrects the off-by-one #2878
- Removes the `offline` validators component. This was only a "best guess" and simply was used as a way to determine an estimate of the "true" packing efficiency and was generally not helpful in terms of direct comparisons between different packing methods. As such it has been removed from the API and any future estimates of "offline" validators would be better suited in a separate/more targeted API or as part of 'beacon watch': #2873
- Includes `prior_skip_slots`.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#2880
## Proposed Changes
Support requests to the next epoch in proposer_duties api.
## Additional Info
Implemented with skipping proposer cache for this case because the cache for the future epoch will be missed every new slot as dependent_root is changed and we don't want to "wash it out" by saving additional values.
## Issue Addressed
I noticed in some logs some excess and unecessary discovery queries. What was happening was we were pruning our peers down to our outbound target and having some disconnect. When we are below this threshold we try to find more peers (even if we are at our peer limit). The request becomes futile because we have no more peer slots.
This PR corrects this issue and advances the pruning mechanism to favour subnet peers.
An overview the new logic added is:
- We prune peers down to a target outbound peer count which is higher than the minimum outbound peer count.
- We only search for more peers if there is room to do so, and we are below the minimum outbound peer count not the target. So this gives us some buffer for peers to disconnect. The buffer is currently 10%
The modified pruning logic is documented in the code but for reference it should do the following:
- Prune peers with bad scores first
- If we need to prune more peers, then prune peers that are subscribed to a long-lived subnet
- If we still need to prune peers, the prune peers that we have a higher density of on any given subnet which should drive for uniform peers across all subnets.
This will need a bit of testing as it modifies some significant peer management behaviours in lighthouse.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
This PR extends #3018 to address my review comments there and add automated integration tests with Geth (and other implementations, in the future).
I've also de-duplicated the "unused port" logic by creating an `common/unused_port` crate.
## Additional Info
I'm not sure if we want to merge this PR, or update #3018 and merge that. I don't mind, I'm primarily opening this PR to make sure CI works.

## Issue Addressed
Closes#3014
## Proposed Changes
- Rename `receipt_root` to `receipts_root`

- This is slightly weird since we modify everything except the actual HTTP call to the engine API. That change is expected to be implemented in #2985 (cc @ethDreamer)
- Enable "random" tests for Bellatrix.
## Notes
This will break *partially* compatibility with Kintusgi testnets in order to gain compatibility with [Kiln](https://hackmd.io/@n0ble/kiln-spec) testnets. I think it will only break the BN APIs due to the `receipts_root` change, however it might have some other effects too.

## Issue Addressed
On a network with few nodes, it is possible that the same node can be found from a subnet discovery and a normal peer discovery at the same time.
The network behaviour loads these peers into events and processes them when it has the chance. It can happen that the same peer can enter the event queue more than once and then attempt to be dialed twice.
This PR shifts the registration of nodes in the peerdb as being dialed before they enter the NetworkBehaviour queue, preventing multiple attempts of the same peer being entered into the queue and avoiding the race condition.

## Proposed Changes
Adds `STRICT_LATE_MESSAGE_PENALTIES: bool` which allows for toggling penalties for late sync/attn messages.
`STRICT_LATE_MESSAGE_PENALTIES` is set to `false`, since we're seeing a lot of late messages on the network which are causing peer drops. We can toggle the bool during testing to try and figure out what/who is the cause of these late messages.
In effect, this PR *relaxes* peer downscoring for late attns and sync committee messages.
## Additional Info
- ~~Blocked on #2974~~
The gossipsub history was increased to a good portion of a slot from 2.1 seconds in the last release.
Although it shouldn't cause too much issue, it could be related to recieving later messages than usual and interacting with our scoring system penalizing peers. For consistency, this PR reduces the time we gossip messages back to the same values of the previous release.
It also adjusts the gossipsub heartbeat time for testing purposes with a developer flag but this should not effect end users.
## 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`.
## Issue Addressed
N/A
## Proposed Changes
Add a HTTP API which can be used to compute the attestation performances of a validator (or all validators) over a discrete range of epochs.
Performances can be computed for a single validator, or for the global validator set.
## Usage
### Request
The API can be used as follows:
```
curl "http://localhost:5052/lighthouse/analysis/attestation_performance/{validator_index}?start_epoch=57730&end_epoch=57732"
```
Alternatively, to compute performances for the global validator set:
```
curl "http://localhost:5052/lighthouse/analysis/attestation_performance/global?start_epoch=57730&end_epoch=57732"
```
### Response
The response is JSON formatted as follows:
```

"epochs": {
"57730": {
"active": true,
"head": false,
"target": false,

}
}
]
```
> Note that the `"epochs"` are not guaranteed to be in ascending order.
## Additional Info
- This API is intended to be used in our upcoming validator analysis tooling (#2873) and will likely not be very useful for regular users. Some advanced users or block explorers may find this API useful however.
- The request range is limited to 100 epochs (since the range is inclusive and it also computes the `end_epoch` it's actually 101 epochs) to prevent Lighthouse using exceptionally large amounts of memory.
Checking how to priorize the polling of the network I moved most of the service code to functions. This change I think it's worth on it's own for code quality since inside the `tokio::select` many tools don't work (cargo fmt, sometimes clippy, and sometimes even the compiler's errors get wack). This is functionally equivalent to the previous code, just better organized
## Proposed Changes
Initially the idea was to remove hashing of blocks in backfill sync. After considering it more, we conclude that we need to do it in both (forward and backfill) anyway. But since we forgot why we were doing it in the first place, this PR documents this logic.

We emit a warning to verify that all peer connection state information is consistent. A warning is given under one edge case;
We try to dial a peer with peer-id X and multiaddr Y. The peer responds to multiaddr Y with a different peer-id, Z. The dialing to the peer fails, but libp2p injects the failed attempt as peer-id Z.
In this instance, our PeerDB tries to add a new peer in the disconnected state under a previously unknown peer-id. This is harmless and so this PR permits this behaviour without logging a warning.
## Issues Addressed
Closes#2739Closes#2812
## Proposed Changes
Support the deserialization of query strings containing duplicate keys into their corresponding types.
As `warp` does not support this feature natively (as discussed in #2739), it relies on the external library [`serde_array_query`](https://github.com/sigp/serde_array_query) (written by @michaelsproul)
This is backwards compatible meaning that both of the following requests will produce the same output:
```
curl "http://localhost:5052/eth/v1/events?topics=head,block"
```
```
curl "http://localhost:5052/eth/v1/events?topics=head&topics=block"
```
## Additional Info
Certain error messages have changed slightly. This only affects endpoints which accept multiple values.
For example:
```
{"code":400,"message":"BAD_REQUEST: invalid query: Invalid query string","stacktraces":[]}
```
is now
```
{"code":400,"message":"BAD_REQUEST: unable to parse query","stacktraces":[]}
```
The serve order of the endpoints `get_beacon_state_validators` and `get_beacon_state_validators_id` have flipped:
```rust
.or(get_beacon_state_validators_id.boxed())
.or(get_beacon_state_validators.boxed())
```
This is to ensure proper error messages when filter fallback occurs due to the use of the `and_then` filter.
## Future Work
- Cleanup / remove filter fallback behaviour by substituting `and_then` with `then` where appropriate.
- Add regression tests for HTTP API error messages.
## Credits
- @mooori for doing the ground work of investigating possible solutions within the existing Rust ecosystem.
- @michaelsproul for writing [`serde_array_query`](https://github.com/sigp/serde_array_query) and for helping debug the behaviour of the `warp` filter fallback leading to incorrect error messages.
## 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.
## Additional Info

## Proposed Changes
Allocate less memory in sync by hashing the `SignedBeaconBlock`s in a batch directly, rather than going via SSZ bytes.
Credit to @paulhauner for finding this source of temporary allocations.
## Issue Addressed
The PeerDB was getting out of sync with the number of disconnected peers compared to the actual count. As this value determines how many we store in our cache, over time the cache was depleting and we were removing peers immediately resulting in errors that manifest as unknown peers for some operations.
The error occurs when dialing a peer fails, we were not correctly updating the peerdb counter because the increment to the counter was placed in the wrong order and was therefore not incrementing the count.
This PR corrects this.
There is a pretty significant tradeoff between bandwidth and speed of gossipsub messages.
We can reduce our bandwidth usage considerably at the cost of minimally delaying gossipsub messages. The impact of delaying messages has not been analyzed thoroughly yet, however this PR in conjunction with some gossipsub updates show considerable bandwidth reduction.
This PR allows the user to set a CLI value (`network-load`) which is an integer in the range of 1 of 5 depending on their bandwidth appetite. 1 represents the least bandwidth but slowest message recieving and 5 represents the most bandwidth and fastest received message time.
For low-bandwidth users it is likely to be more efficient to use a lower value. The default is set to 3, which currently represents a reduced bandwidth usage compared to previous version of this PR. The previous lighthouse versions are equivalent to setting the `network-load` CLI to 4.
This PR is awaiting a few gossipsub updates before we can get it into lighthouse.
## Issue Addressed
- Resolves https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2902
## Proposed Changes
As documented in https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2902, there are some cases where we will score peers very harshly for sending attestations to an unknown head.
This PR removes the penalty when an attestation for an unknown head is received, queued for block look-up, then popped from the queue without the head block being known. This prevents peers from being penalized for an unknown block when that peer was never actually asked for the block.
Peer penalties should still be applied to the peers who *do* get the request for the block and fail to respond with a valid block. As such, peers who send us attestations to non-existent heads should eventually be booted.
## Additional Info
- [ ] Need to confirm that a timeout for a bbroot request will incur a penalty.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## 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.
## Additional Info
NA
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
I've observed some Prater nodes (and potentially some mainnet nodes) banning peers due to validator pubkey cache lock timeouts. For the `BeaconChainError`-type of errors, they're caused by internal faults and we can't necessarily tell if the peer is bad or not. I think this is causing us to ban peers unnecessarily when running on under-resourced machines.

## 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.
## Issue Addressed
The fee-recipient argument of the beacon node does not allow a value to be specified:
> $ lighthouse beacon_node --merge --fee-recipient "0x332E43696A505EF45b9319973785F837ce5267b9"
> error: Found argument '0x332E43696A505EF45b9319973785F837ce5267b9' which wasn't expected, or isn't valid in this context
>
> USAGE:
> lighthouse beacon_node --fee-recipient --merge
>
> For more information try --help
## Proposed Changes
Allow specifying a value for the fee-recipient argument in beacon_node/src/cli.rs
## Additional Info
I've added .takes_value(true) and successfully proposed a block in the kintsugi testnet with my own fee-recipient address instead of the hardcoded default. I think that was just missed as the argument does not make sense without a value :)

## 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
N/A
## 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

## 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).

## Proposed Changes
Not counting dialing peers while deciding if we have reached the target peers in case of outbound peers.
## Additional Info
Checked this running in nodes and bandwidth looks normal, peer count looks normal too
## 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

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:
```

## Issue Addressed
Users are experiencing `Status'd peer not found` errors
## Proposed Changes
Although I cannot reproduce this error, this is only one connection state change that is not addressed in the peer manager (that I could see). The error occurs because the number of disconnected peers in the peerdb becomes out of sync with the actual number of disconnected peers. From what I can tell almost all possible connection state changes are handled, except for the case when a disconnected peer changes to be disconnecting. This can potentially happen at the peer connection limit, where a previously connected peer switches to disconnecting.
This PR decrements the disconnected counter when this event occurs and from what I can tell, covers all possible disconnection state changes in the peer manager.
We were batch removing chains when purging, and then updating the status of the collection for each of those. This makes the range status be out of sync with the real status. This represented no harm to the global sync status, but I've changed it to comply with a correct debug assertion that I got triggered while doing some testing.
Also added tests and improved code quality as per @paulhauner 's suggestions.

## Proposed Changes
1. Don't disconnect peer from dht on connection limit errors
2. Bump up `PRIORITY_PEER_EXCESS` to allow for dialing upto 60 peers by default.
Co-authored-by: Diva M <divma@protonmail.com>
I had this change but it seems to have been lost in chaos of network upgrades.
The swarm dialing event seems to miss some cases where we dial via the behaviour. This causes an error to be logged as the peer manager doesn't know about some dialing events.
This shifts the logic to the behaviour to inform the peer manager.
## Issue Addressed
Part of a bigger effort to make the network globals read only. This moves all writes to the `PeerDB` to the `eth2_libp2p` crate. Limiting writes to the peer manager is a slightly more complicated issue for a next PR, to keep things reviewable.
## Proposed Changes
- Make the peers field in the globals a private field.
- Allow mutable access to the peers field to `eth2_libp2p` for now.
- Add a new network message to update the sync state.

## Issue Addressed
Running a beacon node I triggered a sync debug panic. And so finally the time to create tests for sync arrived. Fortunately, te bug was not in the sync algorithm itself but a wrong assertion
## Proposed Changes
- Split Range's impl from the BeaconChain via a trait. This is needed for testing. The TestingRig/Harness is way bigger than needed and does not provide the modification functionalities that are needed to test sync. I find this simpler, tho some could disagree.
- Add a regression test for sync that fails before the changes.
- Fix the wrong assertion.

This PR is to investigate and correct the issue.
~~My current thoughts are that for some reason we are not closing the streams correctly, or fast enough, or the executor is not registering the closes and waking up.~~ - Pretty sure this is not the case, see message below for a more accurate reason.
~~I've currently added a timeout to stream closures in an attempt to force streams to close and the future to always complete.~~ I removed this
## 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.
This simply moves some functions that were "swarm notifications" to a network behaviour implementation.
Notes
------
- We could disconnect from the peer manager but we would lose the rpc shutdown message
- We still notify from the swarm since this is the most reliable way to get some events. Ugly but best for now
- Events need to be pushed with "add event" to wake the waker

## Issue Addressed
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2112
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/1861
## Proposed Changes
Collect attestations by validator index in the slasher, and use the magic of reference counting to automatically discard redundant attestations. This results in us storing only 1-2% of the attestations observed when subscribed to all subnets, which carries over to a 50-100x reduction in data stored 🎉
## Additional Info
There's some nuance to the configuration of the `slot-offset`. It has a profound effect on the effictiveness of de-duplication, see the docs added to the book for an explanation: 5442e695e5/book/src/slasher.md (slot-offset)
## Issue Addressed
I've done this change in a couple of WIPs already so I might as well submit it on its own. This changes no functionality but reduces coupling in a 0.0001%. It also helps new people who need to work in the peer manager to better understand what it actually needs from the outside
## Proposed Changes
Add a config to the peer manager
## Issue Addressed
The computation of metrics in the network service can be expensive. This disables the computation unless the cli flag `metrics` is set.
## Additional Info
Metrics in other parts of the network are still updated, since most are simple metrics and checking if metrics are enabled each time each metric is updated doesn't seem like a gain.
## 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`.

## 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.

This is a pre-cursor to the next libp2p upgrade.
It is currently being used for staging a number of PR upgrades which are contingent on the latest libp2p.
## Issue Addressed
The [p2p-interface section of the `altair` spec](https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/dev/specs/altair/p2p-interface.md#transitioning-the-gossip) says you should subscribe to the topics for a fork "In advance of the fork" and unsubscribe from old topics `2 Epochs` after the new fork is activated. We've chosen to subscribe to new fork topics `2 slots` before the fork is initiated.
This function is supposed to return the required fork digests at any given time but as it was currently written, it doesn't return the fork digest for a previous fork if you've switched to the current fork less than 2 epoch's ago. Also this function required modification for every new fork we add.
## Proposed Changes
Make this function fork-agnostic and correctly handle the previous fork topic digests when you've only just switched to the new fork.
## Issue Addressed
Resolves#2611
## Proposed Changes
Adds a duplicate block root cache to the `BeaconProcessor`. Adds the block root to the cache before calling `process_gossip_block` and `process_rpc_block`. Since `process_rpc_block` is called only for single block lookups, we don't have to worry about batched block imports.
The block is imported from the source(gossip/rpc) that arrives first. The block that arrives second is not imported to avoid the db access issue.
There are 2 cases:
1. Block that arrives second is from rpc: In this case, we return an optimistic `BlockError::BlockIsAlreadyKnown` to sync.
2. Block that arrives second is from gossip: In this case, we only do gossip verification and forwarding but don't import the block into the the beacon chain.
## Additional info
Splits up `process_gossip_block` function to `process_gossip_unverified_block` and `process_gossip_verified_block`.
## Proposed Changes
* Add the `Eth-Consensus-Version` header to the HTTP API for the block and state endpoints. This is part of the v2.1.0 API that was recently released: https://github.com/ethereum/beacon-APIs/pull/170
* Add tests for the above. I refactored the `eth2` crate's helper functions to make this more straight-forward, and introduced some new mixin traits that I think greatly improve readability and flexibility.
* Add a new `map_with_fork!` macro which is useful for decoding a superstruct type without naming all its variants. It is now used for SSZ-decoding `BeaconBlock` and `BeaconState`, and for JSON-decoding `SignedBeaconBlock` in the API.
## Additional Info
The `map_with_fork!` changes will conflict with the Merge changes, but when resolving the conflict the changes from this branch should be preferred (it is no longer necessary to enumerate every fork). The merge fork _will_ need to be added to `map_fork_name_with`.
## Issue Addressed
Currently, if you launch the beacon node with the `--purge-db` flag and the `beacon` directory exists, but one (or both) of the `chain_db` or `freezer-db` directories are missing, it will error unnecessarily with:
```
Failed to remove chain_db: No such file or directory (os error 2)
```
This is an edge case which can occur in cases of manual intervention (a user deleted the directory) or if you had previously run with the `--purge-db` flag and Lighthouse errored before it could initialize the db directories.
## Proposed Changes
Check if the `chain_db`/`freezer_db` exists before attempting to remove them. This prevents unnecessary errors.
## Issue Addressed
Attempts to fix#2701 but I doubt this is the reason behind that.
## Proposed Changes
maintain a waker in the rpc handler and call it if an event is received
## Issue Addressed
In the backfill sync the state was maintained twice, once locally and also in the globals. This makes it so that it's maintained only once.
The only behavioral change is that when backfill sync in paused, the global backfill state is updated. I asked @AgeManning about this and he deemed it a bug, so this solves it.

```
This warning is completely harmless, but will be visible to users compiling Lighthouse v2.0.1 (or earlier) with Rust 1.56.0 (to be released October 21st). It is **completely safe** to ignore this warning, it's just a superficial change to Rust's syntax.
## Proposed Changes

## Issue Addressed
Mitigates #1096
## Proposed Changes
Add a flag to the beacon node called `--disable-lock-timeouts` which allows opting out of lock timeouts.
The lock timeouts serve a dual purpose:
1. They prevent any single operation from hogging the lock for too long. When a timeout occurs it logs a nasty error which indicates that there's suboptimal lock use occurring, which we can then act on.
2. They allow deadlock detection. We're fairly sure there are no deadlocks left in Lighthouse anymore but the timeout locks offer a safeguard against that.
However, timeouts on locks are not without downsides:
They allow for the possibility of livelock, particularly on slower hardware. If lock timeouts keep failing spuriously the node can be prevented from making any progress, even if it would be able to make progress slowly without the timeout. One particularly concerning scenario which could occur would be if a DoS attack succeeded in slowing block signature verification times across the network, and all Lighthouse nodes got livelocked because they timed out repeatedly. This could also occur on just a subset of nodes (e.g. dual core VPSs or Raspberri Pis).
By making the behaviour runtime configurable this PR allows us to choose the behaviour we want depending on circumstance. I suspect that long term we could make the timeout-free approach the default (#2381 moves in this direction) and just enable the timeouts on our testnet nodes for debugging purposes. This PR conservatively leaves the default as-is so we can gain some more experience before switching the default.
## Description
The `eth2_libp2p` crate was originally named and designed to incorporate a simple libp2p integration into lighthouse. Since its origins the crates purpose has expanded dramatically. It now houses a lot more sophistication that is specific to lighthouse and no longer just a libp2p integration.
As of this writing it currently houses the following high-level lighthouse-specific logic:
- Lighthouse's implementation of the eth2 RPC protocol and specific encodings/decodings
- Integration and handling of ENRs with respect to libp2p and eth2
- Lighthouse's discovery logic, its integration with discv5 and logic about searching and handling peers.
- Lighthouse's peer manager - This is a large module handling various aspects of Lighthouse's network, such as peer scoring, handling pings and metadata, connection maintenance and recording, etc.
- Lighthouse's peer database - This is a collection of information stored for each individual peer which is specific to lighthouse. We store connection state, sync state, last seen ips and scores etc. The data stored for each peer is designed for various elements of the lighthouse code base such as syncing and the http api.
- Gossipsub scoring - This stores a collection of gossipsub 1.1 scoring mechanisms that are continuously analyssed and updated based on the ethereum 2 networks and how Lighthouse performs on these networks.
- Lighthouse specific types for managing gossipsub topics, sync status and ENR fields
- Lighthouse's network HTTP API metrics - A collection of metrics for lighthouse network monitoring
- Lighthouse's custom configuration of all networking protocols, RPC, gossipsub, discovery, identify and libp2p.
Therefore it makes sense to rename the crate to be more akin to its current purposes, simply that it manages the majority of Lighthouse's network stack. This PR renames this crate to `lighthouse_network`

## Proposed Changes
Clone the proposer pubkeys during backfill signature verification to reduce the time that the pubkey cache lock is held for. Cloning such a small number of pubkeys has negligible impact on the total running time, but greatly reduces lock contention.
On a Ryzen 5950X, the setup step seems to take around 180us regardless of whether the key is cloned or not, while the verification takes 7ms. When Lighthouse is limited to 10% of one core using `sudo cpulimit --pid <pid> --limit 10` the total time jumps up to 800ms, but the setup step remains only 250us. This means that under heavy load this PR could cut the time the lock is held for from 800ms to 250us, which is a huge saving of 99.97%!

## Additional Info
NA
Currently, the beacon node has no ability to serve the HTTP API over TLS.
Adding this functionality would be helpful for certain use cases, such as when you need a validator client to connect to a backup beacon node which is outside your local network, and the use of an SSH tunnel or reverse proxy would be inappropriate.
## Proposed Changes
- Add three new CLI flags to the beacon node
- `--http-enable-tls`: enables TLS
- `--http-tls-cert`: to specify the path to the certificate file
- `--http-tls-key`: to specify the path to the key file
- Update the HTTP API to optionally use `warp`'s [`TlsServer`](https://docs.rs/warp/0.3.1/warp/struct.TlsServer.html) depending on the presence of the `--http-enable-tls` flag
- Update tests and docs
- Use a custom branch for `warp` to ensure proper error handling
## Additional Info
Serving the API over TLS should currently be considered experimental. The reason for this is that it uses code from an [unmerged PR](https://github.com/seanmonstar/warp/pull/717). This commit provides the `try_bind_with_graceful_shutdown` method to `warp`, which is helpful for controlling error flow when the TLS configuration is invalid (cert/key files don't exist, incorrect permissions, etc).
I've implemented the same code in my [branch here](https://github.com/macladson/warp/tree/tls).
Once the code has been reviewed and merged upstream into `warp`, we can remove the dependency on my branch and the feature can be considered more stable.
Currently, the private key file must not be password-protected in order to be read into Lighthouse.
## Proposed Changes
This is a refactor of the PeerDB and PeerManager. A number of bugs have been surfacing around the connection state of peers and their interaction with the score state.
This refactor tightens the mutability properties of peers such that only specific modules are able to modify the state of peer information preventing inadvertant state changes that can lead to our local peer manager db being out of sync with libp2p.
Further, the logic around connection and scoring was quite convoluted and the distinction between the PeerManager and Peerdb was not well defined. Although these issues are not fully resolved, this PR is step to cleaning up this logic. The peerdb solely manages most mutability operations of peers leaving high-order logic to the peer manager.
A single `update_connection_state()` function has been added to the peer-db making it solely responsible for modifying the peer's connection state. The way the peer's scores can be modified have been reduced to three simple functions (`update_scores()`, `update_gossipsub_scores()` and `report_peer()`). This prevents any add-hoc modifications of scores and only natural processes of score modification is allowed which simplifies the reasoning of score and state changes.
## Issue Addressed
Fix `cargo audit` failures on `unstable`
Closes#2698
## Proposed Changes
The main culprit is `nix`, which is vulnerable for versions below v0.23.0. We can't get by with a straight-forward `cargo update` because `psutil` depends on an old version of `nix` (cf. https://github.com/rust-psutil/rust-psutil/pull/93). Hence I've temporarily forked `psutil` under the `sigp` org, where I've included the update to `nix` v0.23.0.
Additionally, I took the chance to update the `time` dependency to v0.3, which removed a bunch of stale deps including `stdweb` which is no longer maintained. Lighthouse only uses the `time` crate in the notifier to do some pretty printing, and so wasn't affected by any of the breaking changes in v0.3 ([changelog here](https://github.com/time-rs/time/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#030-2021-07-30)).

## Issue Addressed
This PR addresses an issue found by @YorickDowne during testing of v2.0.0-rc.0.
Due to a lack of atomic database writes on checkpoint sync start-up, it was possible for the database to get into an inconsistent state from which it couldn't recover without `--purge-db`. The core of the issue was that the store's anchor info was being stored _before_ the `PersistedBeaconChain`. If a crash occured so that anchor info was stored but _not_ the `PersistedBeaconChain`, then on restart Lighthouse would think the database was unitialized and attempt to compare-and-swap a `None` value, but would actually find the stale info from the previous run.
## Proposed Changes
The issue is fixed by writing the anchor info, the split point, and the `PersistedBeaconChain` atomically on start-up. Some type-hinting ugliness was required, which could possibly be cleaned up in future refactors.

When peers switching to a disconnecting state, decrement the disconnected peers counter. This also downgrades some crit logs to errors.

## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
- Add `BlockTimesCache` to provide block timing information to `BeaconChain`. This allows additional metrics to be calculated for blocks that are set as head too late.
- Thread the `seen_timestamp` of blocks received from RPC responses (except blocks from syncing) through to the sync manager, similar to what is done for blocks from gossip.
## Additional Info
This provides the following additional metrics:
- `BEACON_BLOCK_OBSERVED_SLOT_START_DELAY_TIME`
- The delay between the start of the slot and when the block was first observed.
- `BEACON_BLOCK_IMPORTED_OBSERVED_DELAY_TIME`
- The delay between when the block was first observed and when the block was imported.
- `BEACON_BLOCK_HEAD_IMPORTED_DELAY_TIME`
- The delay between when the block was imported and when the block was set as head.
The metric `BEACON_BLOCK_IMPORTED_SLOT_START_DELAY_TIME` was removed.
A log is produced when a block is set as head too late, e.g.:
```

```
## Issue Addressed
Resolves#2552
## Proposed Changes
Offers some improvement in inclusion distance calculation in the validator monitor.
When registering an attestation from a block, instead of doing `block.slot() - attesstation.data.slot()` to get the inclusion distance, we now pass the parent block slot from the beacon chain and do `parent_slot.saturating_sub(attestation.data.slot())`. This allows us to give best effort inclusion distance in scenarios where the attestation was included right after a skip slot. Note that this does not give accurate results in scenarios where the attestation was included few blocks after the skip slot.
In this case, if the attestation slot was `b1` and was included in block `b2` with a skip slot in between, we would get the inclusion delay as 0 (by ignoring the skip slot) which is the best effort inclusion delay.
```
b1 <- missed <- b2
```
Here, if the attestation slot was `b1` and was included in block `b3` with a skip slot and valid block `b2` in between, then we would get the inclusion delay as 2 instead of 1 (by ignoring the skip slot).
```
b1 <- missed <- b2 <- b3
```
A solution for the scenario 2 would be to count number of slots between included slot and attestation slot ignoring the skip slots in the beacon chain and pass the value to the validator monitor. But I'm concerned that it could potentially lead to db accesses for older blocks in extreme cases.
This PR also uses the validator monitor data for logging per epoch inclusion distance. This is useful as we won't get inclusion data in post-altair summaries.

## Proposed Changes
Implements the "union" type from the SSZ spec for `ssz`, `ssz_derive`, `tree_hash` and `tree_hash_derive` so it may be derived for `enums`:
https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/blob/v1.1.0-beta.3/ssz/simple-serialize.md#union
The union type is required for the merge, since the `Transaction` type is defined as a single-variant union `Union[OpaqueTransaction]`.
### Crate Updates
This PR will (hopefully) cause CI to publish new versions for the following crates:
- `eth2_ssz_derive`: `0.2.1` -> `0.3.0`
- `eth2_ssz`: `0.3.0` -> `0.4.0`
- `eth2_ssz_types`: `0.2.0` -> `0.2.1`
- `tree_hash`: `0.3.0` -> `0.4.0`
- `tree_hash_derive`: `0.3.0` -> `0.4.0`
These these crates depend on each other, I've had to add a workspace-level `[patch]` for these crates. A follow-up PR will need to remove this patch, ones the new versions are published.
### Union Behaviors
We already had SSZ `Encode` and `TreeHash` derive for enums, however it just did a "transparent" pass-through of the inner value. Since the "union" decoding from the spec is in conflict with the transparent method, I've required that all `enum` have exactly one of the following enum-level attributes:
#### SSZ
- `#[ssz(enum_behaviour = "union")]`
- matches the spec used for the merge
- `#[ssz(enum_behaviour = "transparent")]`
- maintains existing functionality
- not supported for `Decode` (never was)
#### TreeHash
- `#[tree_hash(enum_behaviour = "union")]`
- matches the spec used for the merge
- `#[tree_hash(enum_behaviour = "transparent")]`
- maintains existing functionality
This means that we can maintain the existing transparent behaviour, but all existing users will get a compile-time error until they explicitly opt-in to being transparent.
### Legacy Option Encoding
Before this PR, we already had a union-esque encoding for `Option<T>`. However, this was with the *old* SSZ spec where the union selector was 4 bytes. During merge specification, the spec was changed to use 1 byte for the selector.
Whilst the 4-byte `Option` encoding was never used in the spec, we used it in our database. Writing a migrate script for all occurrences of `Option` in the database would be painful, especially since it's used in the `CommitteeCache`. To avoid the migrate script, I added a serde-esque `#[ssz(with = "module")]` field-level attribute to `ssz_derive` so that we can opt into the 4-byte encoding on a field-by-field basis.
The `ssz::legacy::four_byte_impl!` macro allows a one-liner to define the module required for the `#[ssz(with = "module")]` for some `Option<T> where T: Encode + Decode`.
Notably, **I have removed `Encode` and `Decode` impls for `Option`**. I've done this to force a break on downstream users. Like I mentioned, `Option` isn't used in the spec so I don't think it'll be *that* annoying. I think it's nicer than quietly having two different union implementations or quietly breaking the existing `Option` impl.
### Crate Publish Ordering
I've modified the order in which CI publishes crates to ensure that we don't publish a crate without ensuring we already published a crate that it depends upon.
## TODO
- [ ] Queue a follow-up `[patch]`-removing PR.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
Adds the ability to verify batches of aggregated/unaggregated attestations from the network.
When the `BeaconProcessor` finds there are messages in the aggregated or unaggregated attestation queues, it will first check the length of the queue:
- `== 1` verify the attestation individually.
- `>= 2` take up to 64 of those attestations and verify them in a batch.
Notably, we only perform batch verification if the queue has a backlog. We don't apply any artificial delays to attestations to try and force them into batches.
### Batching Details
To assist with implementing batches we modify `beacon_chain::attestation_verification` to have two distinct categories for attestations:
- *Indexed* attestations: those which have passed initial validation and were valid enough for us to derive an `IndexedAttestation`.
- *Verified* attestations: those attestations which were indexed *and also* passed signature verification. These are well-formed, interesting messages which were signed by validators.
The batching functions accept `n` attestations and then return `n` attestation verification `Result`s, where those `Result`s can be any combination of `Ok` or `Err`. In other words, we attempt to verify as many attestations as possible and return specific per-attestation results so peer scores can be updated, if required.
When we batch verify attestations, we first try to map all those attestations to *indexed* attestations. If any of those attestations were able to be indexed, we then perform batch BLS verification on those indexed attestations. If the batch verification succeeds, we convert them into *verified* attestations, disabling individual signature checking. If the batch fails, we convert to verified attestations with individual signature checking enabled.
Ultimately, we optimistically try to do a batch verification of attestation signatures and fall-back to individual verification if it fails. This opens an attach vector for "poisoning" the attestations and causing us to waste a batch verification. I argue that peer scoring should do a good-enough job of defending against this and the typical-case gains massively outweigh the worst-case losses.
## Additional Info
Before this PR, attestation verification took the attestations by value (instead of by reference). It turns out that this was unnecessary and, in my opinion, resulted in some undesirable ergonomics (e.g., we had to pass the attestation back in the `Err` variant to avoid clones). In this PR I've modified attestation verification so that it now takes a reference.
I refactored the `beacon_chain/tests/attestation_verification.rs` tests so they use a builder-esque "tester" struct instead of a weird macro. It made it easier for me to test individual/batch with the same set of tests and I think it was a nice tidy-up. Notably, I did this last to try and make sure my new refactors to *actual* production code would pass under the existing test suite.

In previous network updates we have made our libp2p connections more lean by limiting the maximum number of connections a lighthouse node will accept before libp2p rejects new connections.
However, we still maintain the logic that at maximum connections, we try to dial extra peers if they are needed by a validator client to publish messages on a specific subnet. The dials typically result in failures due the libp2p connection limits.
This PR adds an extra factor, `PRIORITY_PEER_EXCESS` which sets aside a new allocation of peers we are able to dial in case we need these peers for the VC client. This allocation sits along side the excess peer (which allows extra incoming peers on top of our target peer limit).
The drawback here, is that libp2p now allows extra peers to connect to us (beyond the standard peer limit) which the peer manager should subsequently reject.
This PR in general improves the handling around peer banning.
Specifically there were issues when multiple peers under a single IP connected to us after we banned the IP for poor behaviour.
This PR should now handle these peers gracefully as well as make some improvements around how we previously disconnected and banned peers.
The logic now goes as follows:
- Once a peer gets banned, its gets registered with its known IP addresses
- Once enough banned peers exist under a single IP that IP is banned
- We retain connections with existing peers under this IP
- Any new connections under this IP are rejected

# Description
A few changes have been made to discovery. In particular a custom re-write of an LRU cache which previously was read/write O(N) for all our sessions ~5k, to a more reasonable hashmap-style O(1).
Further there has been reported issues in the current discv5, so added error handling to help identify the issue has been added.
The identify network debug logs can get quite noisy and are unnecessary to print on every request/response.
This PR reduces debug noise by only printing messages for identify messages that offer some new information.
## Proposed Changes
Cache the total active balance for the current epoch in the `BeaconState`. Computing this value takes around 1ms, and this was negatively impacting block processing times on Prater, particularly when reconstructing states.
With a large number of attestations in each block, I saw the `process_attestations` function taking 150ms, which means that reconstructing hot states can take up to 4.65s (31 * 150ms), and reconstructing freezer states can take up to 307s (2047 * 150ms).
I opted to add the cache to the beacon state rather than computing the total active balance at the start of state processing and threading it through. Although this would be simpler in a way, it would waste time, particularly during block replay, as the total active balance doesn't change for the duration of an epoch. So we save ~32ms for hot states, and up to 8.1s for freezer states (using `--slots-per-restore-point 8192`).

## Proposed Changes
Missed head votes on attestations is a well-known issue. The primary cause is a block getting set as the head *after* the attestation deadline.
This PR aims to shorten the overall time between "block received" and "block set as head" by:
1. Persisting the head and fork choice *after* setting the canonical head
- Informal measurements show this takes ~200ms
1. Pruning the op pool *after* setting the canonical head.
1. No longer persisting the op pool to disk during `BeaconChain::fork_choice`
- Informal measurements show this can take up to 1.2s.
I also add some metrics to help measure the effect of these changes.
Persistence changes like this run the risk of breaking assumptions downstream. However, I have considered these risks and I think we're fine here. I will describe my reasoning for each change.
## Reasoning
### Change 1: Persisting the head and fork choice *after* setting the canonical head
For (1), although the function is called `persist_head_and_fork_choice`, it only persists:
- Fork choice
- Head tracker
- Genesis block root
Since `BeaconChain::fork_choice_internal` does not modify these values between the original time we were persisting it and the current time, I assert that the change I've made is non-substantial in terms of what ends up on-disk. There's the possibility that some *other* thread has modified fork choice in the extra time we've given it, but that's totally fine.
Since the only time we *read* those values from disk is during startup, I assert that this has no impact during runtime.
### Change 2: Pruning the op pool after setting the canonical head
Similar to the argument above, we don't modify the op pool during `BeaconChain::fork_choice_internal` so it shouldn't matter when we prune. This change should be non-substantial.
### Change 3: No longer persisting the op pool to disk during `BeaconChain::fork_choice`
This change *is* substantial. With the proposed changes, we'll only be persisting the op pool to disk when we shut down cleanly (i.e., the `BeaconChain` gets dropped). This means we'll save disk IO and time during usual operation, but a `kill -9` or similar "crash" will probably result in an out-of-date op pool when we reboot. An out-of-date op pool can only have an impact when producing blocks or aggregate attestations/sync committees.
I think it's pretty reasonable that a crash might result in an out-of-date op pool, since:
- Crashes are fairly rare. Practically the only time I see LH suffer a full crash is when the OOM killer shows up, and that's a very serious event.
- It's generally quite rare to produce a block/aggregate immediately after a reboot. Just a few slots of runtime is probably enough to have a decent-enough op pool again.

If the head block fails to decode on start up, do two things:
1. Revert all blocks between the head and the most recent hard fork (to `fork_slot - 1`).
2. Reset fork choice so that it contains the new head, and all blocks back to the new head's finalized checkpoint.

I tweaked some of the beacon chain test harness stuff in order to make it generic enough to test with a non-zero slot clock on start-up. In the process I consolidated all the various `new_` methods into a single generic one which will hopefully serve all future uses 🤞

I tested these changes against the examples in the original issue and noticed some interesting behavior on my machine. When running `lighthouse bn --network pyrmont |& tee -a pyrmont_bn.log` or `lighthouse bn --network pyrmont 2>&1 | tee -a pyrmont_bn.log` none of the above signals are sent to the lighthouse program in a way I was able to observe.
The only time it seems that the signal gets sent to the lighthouse program is if there is no redirection of stderr to stdout. I'm not as familiar with the details of how unix signals work in linux with a redirect like that so I'm not sure if this is a bug in the program or expected behavior.
Signals are correctly received without the redirection and if the above signals are sent directly to the program with something like `kill`.

Logs a message once in every invocation of `Eth1Service::update` method if the primary endpoint is unavailable for some reason.
e.g.
```log
Aug 03 00:09:53.517 WARN Error connecting to eth1 node endpoint action: trying fallbacks, endpoint: http://localhost:8545/, service: eth1_rpc
Aug 03 00:09:56.959 INFO Fetched data from fallback fallback_number: 1, service: eth1_rpc
```
The main aim of this PR is to have an accompanying message to the "action: trying fallbacks" error message that is returned when checking the endpoint for liveness. This is mainly to indicate to the user that the fallback was live and reachable.
## Additional info
This PR is not meant to be a catch all for all cases where the primary endpoint failed. For instance, this won't log anything if the primary node was working fine during endpoint liveness checking and failed during deposit/block fetching. This is done intentionally to reduce number of logs while initial deposit/block sync and to avoid more complicated logic.

## Proposed Changes
This PR expands the time that entries exist in the gossip-sub duplicate cache. Recent investigations found that this cache is one slot (12s) shorter than the period for which an attestation is permitted to propagate on the gossip network.
Before #2540, this was causing peers to be unnecessarily down-scored for sending old attestations. Although that issue has been fixed, the duplicate cache time is increased here to avoid such messages from getting any further up the networking stack then required.

## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
A Discord user presented logs which indicated a drop in their peer count caused by a variety of peers sending attestations where we'd already seen an attestation for that validator. It's presently unclear how this case came about, but during our investigation I noticed that we are down-voting peers for sending such attestations.
There are three scenarios where we may receive duplicate unagg. attestations from the same validator:
1. The validator is committing a slashable offense.
2. The gossipsub message-deduping functionality is not working as expected.
3. We received the message via the HTTP prior to seeing it via gossip.
Scenario (1) would be so costly for an attacker that I don't think we need to add DoS protection for it.
Scenario (2) seems feasible. Our "seen message" caches in gossipsub might fill up/expire and let through these duplicates. There are also cases involving message ID mismatches with the other peers. In both these cases, I don't think we should be doing 1 attestation == -1 point down-voting.
Scenario (3) is not necessarily a fault of the peer and we shouldn't down-score them for it.

Also removes `GroupedQueryType` struct and use `QueryType` for all queuing and processing of discovery requests.

## Proposed Changes
When testing our (not-yet-released) Doppelganger implementation, I noticed that we aren't detecting attestations included in blocks (only those on the gossip network).
This is because during [block processing](e8c0d1f19b/beacon_node/beacon_chain/src/beacon_chain.rs (L2168)) we only update the `observed_attestations` cache with each attestation, but not the `observed_attesters` cache. This is the correct behaviour when we consider the [p2p spec](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.0.1/specs/phase0/p2p-interface.md):
> [IGNORE] There has been no other valid attestation seen on an attestation subnet that has an identical attestation.data.target.epoch and participating validator index.
We're doing the right thing here and still allowing attestations on gossip that we've seen in a block. However, this doesn't work so nicely for Doppelganger.
To resolve this, I've taken the following steps:
- Add a `observed_block_attesters` cache.
- Rename `observed_attesters` to `observed_gossip_attesters`.
## TODO
- [x] Add a test to ensure a validator that's been seen in a block attestation (but not a gossip attestation) returns `true` for `BeaconChain::validator_seen_at_epoch`.
- [x] Add a test to ensure `observed_block_attesters` isn't polluted via gossip attestations and vice versa.

## Issue Addressed
Resolves#2069
## Proposed Changes
- Adds a `--doppelganger-detection` flag
- Adds a `lighthouse/seen_validators` endpoint, which will make it so the lighthouse VC is not interopable with other client beacon nodes if the `--doppelganger-detection` flag is used, but hopefully this will become standardized. Relevant Eth2 API repo issue: https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-APIs/issues/64
- If the `--doppelganger-detection` flag is used, the VC will wait until the beacon node is synced, and then wait an additional 2 epochs. The reason for this is to make sure the beacon node is able to subscribe to the subnets our validators should be attesting on. I think an alternative would be to have the beacon node subscribe to all subnets for 2+ epochs on startup by default.
## Additional Info
I'd like to add tests and would appreciate feedback.

Adds the `AttesterCache` to allow validators to produce attestations for older slots.

## Proposed Changes
Add the `sync_aggregate` from `BeaconBlock` to the bulk signature verifier for blocks. This necessitates a new signature set constructor for the sync aggregate, which is different from the others due to the use of [`eth2_fast_aggregate_verify`](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.1.0-alpha.7/specs/altair/bls.md#eth2_fast_aggregate_verify) for sync aggregates, per [`process_sync_aggregate`](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.1.0-alpha.7/specs/altair/beacon-chain.md#sync-aggregate-processing). I made the choice to return an optional signature set, with `None` representing the case where the signature is valid on account of being the point at infinity (requires no further checking).
To "dogfood" the changes and prevent duplication, the consensus logic now uses the signature set approach as well whenever it is required to verify signatures (which should only be in testing AFAIK). The EF tests pass with the code as it exists currently, but failed before I adapted the `eth2_fast_aggregate_verify` changes (which is good).
As a result of this change Altair block processing should be a little faster, and importantly, we will no longer accidentally verify signatures when replaying blocks, e.g. when replaying blocks from the database.

## Proposed Changes
This PR addresses two things:
1. Allows the `ValidatorMonitor` to work with Altair states.
1. Optimizes `altair::process_epoch` (see [code](https://github.com/paulhauner/lighthouse/blob/participation-cache/consensus/state_processing/src/per_epoch_processing/altair/participation_cache.rs) for description)
## Breaking Changes
The breaking changes in this PR revolve around one premise:
*After the Altair fork, it's not longer possible (given only a `BeaconState`) to identify if a validator had *any* attestation included during some epoch. The best we can do is see if that validator made the "timely" source/target/head flags.*
Whilst this seems annoying, it's not actually too bad. Finalization is based upon "timely target" attestations, so that's really the most important thing. Although there's *some* value in knowing if a validator had *any* attestation included, it's far more important to know about "timely target" participation, since this is what affects finality and justification.
For simplicity and consistency, I've also removed the ability to determine if *any* attestation was included from metrics and API endpoints. Now, all Altair and non-Altair states will simply report on the head/target attestations.
The following section details where we've removed fields and provides replacement values.
### Breaking Changes: Prometheus Metrics
Some participation metrics have been removed and replaced. Some were removed since they are no longer relevant to Altair (e.g., total attesting balance) and others replaced with gwei values instead of pre-computed values. This provides more flexibility at display-time (e.g., Grafana).
The following metrics were added as replacements:
- `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_head_attesting_gwei_total`
- `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_target_attesting_gwei_total`
- `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_source_attesting_gwei_total`
- `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_active_gwei_total`
The following metrics were removed:
- `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_attester`
- instead use `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_source_attesting_gwei_total / beacon_participation_prev_epoch_active_gwei_total`.
- `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_target_attester`
- instead use `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_target_attesting_gwei_total / beacon_participation_prev_epoch_active_gwei_total`.
- `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_head_attester`
- instead use `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_head_attesting_gwei_total / beacon_participation_prev_epoch_active_gwei_total`.
The `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_attester` endpoint has been removed. Users should instead use the pre-existing `beacon_participation_prev_epoch_target_attester`.
### Breaking Changes: HTTP API
The `/lighthouse/validator_inclusion/{epoch}/{validator_id}` endpoint loses the following fields:
- `current_epoch_attesting_gwei` (use `current_epoch_target_attesting_gwei` instead)
- `previous_epoch_attesting_gwei` (use `previous_epoch_target_attesting_gwei` instead)
The `/lighthouse/validator_inclusion/{epoch}/{validator_id}` endpoint lose the following fields:
- `is_current_epoch_attester` (use `is_current_epoch_target_attester` instead)
- `is_previous_epoch_attester` (use `is_previous_epoch_target_attester` instead)
- `is_active_in_current_epoch` becomes `is_active_unslashed_in_current_epoch`.
- `is_active_in_previous_epoch` becomes `is_active_unslashed_in_previous_epoch`.

## Proposed Changes
Update to the latest version of the Altair spec, which includes new tests and a tweak to the target sync aggregators.
## Additional Info
This change is _not_ required for the imminent Altair devnet, and is waiting on the merge of #2321 to unstable.
Co-authored-by: Paul Hauner <paul@paulhauner.com>
## Proposed Changes
Remove the remaining Altair `FIXME`s from consensus land.
1. Implement tree hash caching for the participation lists. This required some light type manipulation, including removing the `TreeHash` bound from `CachedTreeHash` which was purely descriptive.
2. Plumb the proposer index through Altair attestation processing, to avoid calculating it for _every_ attestation (potentially 128ms on large networks). This duplicates some work from #2431, but with the aim of getting it in sooner, particularly for the Altair devnets.
3. Removes two FIXMEs related to `superstruct` and cloning, which are unlikely to be particularly detrimental and will be tracked here instead: https://github.com/sigp/superstruct/issues/5
* Adjust beacon node timeouts for validator client HTTP requests (#2352)
Resolves#2313
Provide `BeaconNodeHttpClient` with a dedicated `Timeouts` struct.
This will allow granular adjustment of the timeout duration for different calls made from the VC to the BN. These can either be a constant value, or as a ratio of the slot duration.
Improve timeout performance by using these adjusted timeout duration's only whenever a fallback endpoint is available.
Add a CLI flag called `use-long-timeouts` to revert to the old behavior.
Additionally set the default `BeaconNodeHttpClient` timeouts to the be the slot duration of the network, rather than a constant 12 seconds. This will allow it to adjust to different network specifications.

* Use read_recursive locks in database (#2417)
Closes#2245
Replace all calls to `RwLock::read` in the `store` crate with `RwLock::read_recursive`.
* Unfortunately we can't run the deadlock detector on CI because it's pinned to an old Rust 1.51.0 nightly which cannot compile Lighthouse (one of our deps uses `ptr::addr_of!` which is too new). A fun side-project at some point might be to update the deadlock detector.
* The reason I think we haven't seen this deadlock (at all?) in practice is that _writes_ to the database's split point are quite infrequent, and a concurrent write is required to trigger the deadlock. The split point is only written when finalization advances, which is once per epoch (every ~6 minutes), and state reads are also quite sporadic. Perhaps we've just been incredibly lucky, or there's something about the timing of state reads vs database migration that protects us.
* I wrote a few small programs to demo the deadlock, and the effectiveness of the `read_recursive` fix: https://github.com/michaelsproul/relock_deadlock_mvp
* [The docs for `read_recursive`](https://docs.rs/lock_api/0.4.2/lock_api/struct.RwLock.html#method.read_recursive) warn of starvation for writers. I think in order for starvation to occur the database would have to be spammed with so many state reads that it's unable to ever clear them all and find time for a write, in which case migration of states to the freezer would cease. If an attack could be performed to trigger this starvation then it would likely trigger a deadlock in the current code, and I think ceasing migration is preferable to deadlocking in this extreme situation. In practice neither should occur due to protection from spammy peers at the network layer. Nevertheless, it would be prudent to run this change on the testnet nodes to check that it doesn't cause accidental starvation.
* Return more detail when invalid data is found in the DB during startup (#2445)
- Resolves#2444
Adds some more detail to the error message returned when the `BeaconChainBuilder` is unable to access or decode block/state objects during startup.
NA
* Use hardware acceleration for SHA256 (#2426)
Modify the SHA256 implementation in `eth2_hashing` so that it switches between `ring` and `sha2` to take advantage of [x86_64 SHA extensions](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_SHA_extensions). The extensions are available on modern Intel and AMD CPUs, and seem to provide a considerable speed-up: on my Ryzen 5950X it dropped state tree hashing times by about 30% from 35ms to 25ms (on Prater).
The extensions became available in the `sha2` crate [last year](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/hf2vcx/ann_rustcryptos_sha1_and_sha2_now_support/), and are not available in Ring, which uses a [pure Rust implementation of sha2](https://github.com/briansmith/ring/blob/main/src/digest/sha2.rs). Ring is faster on CPUs that lack the extensions so I've implemented a runtime switch to use `sha2` only when the extensions are available. The runtime switching seems to impose a miniscule penalty (see the benchmarks linked below).
* Start a release checklist (#2270)
NA
Add a checklist to the release draft created by CI. I know @michaelsproul was also working on this and I suspect @realbigsean also might have useful input.
NA
* Serious banning
* fmt

## Proposed Changes
Implement the consensus changes necessary for the upcoming Altair hard fork.
## Additional Info
This is quite a heavy refactor, with pivotal types like the `BeaconState` and `BeaconBlock` changing from structs to enums. This ripples through the whole codebase with field accesses changing to methods, e.g. `state.slot` => `state.slot()`.

## Issue Addressed
#2377
## Proposed Changes
Implement the same code used for block root lookups (from #2376) to state root lookups in order to improve performance and reduce associated memory spikes (e.g. from certain HTTP API requests).
## Additional Changes
- Tests using `rev_iter_state_roots` and `rev_iter_block_roots` have been refactored to use their `forwards` versions instead.
- The `rev_iter_state_roots` and `rev_iter_block_roots` functions are now unused and have been removed.
- The `state_at_slot` function has been changed to use the `forwards` iterator.
## Additional Info
- Some tests still need to be refactored to use their `forwards_iter` versions. These tests start their iteration from a specific beacon state and thus use the `rev_iter_state_roots_from` and `rev_iter_block_roots_from` functions. If they can be refactored, those functions can also be removed.
This updates some older dependencies to address a few cargo audit warnings.
The majority of warnings come from network dependencies which will be addressed in #2389.

## Proposed Changes
A user on Discord (`@ChewsMacRibs`) reported that the validator monitor was logging `WARN Attested to an incorrect head` for their validator while it was awaiting activation.
This PR modifies the monitor so that it ignores inactive validators, by the logic that they are either awaiting activation, or have already exited. Either way, there's no way for an inactive validator to have their attestations included on chain, so no need for the monitor to report on them.
## Additional Info
To reproduce the bug requires registering validator keys manually with `--validator-monitor-pubkeys`. I don't think the bug will present itself with `--validator-monitor-auto`.
## Issue Addressed
#2293
## Proposed Changes
- Modify the handler for the `eth_chainId` RPC (i.e., `get_chain_id`) to explicitly match against the Geth error string returned for pre-EIP-155 synced Geth nodes
- ~~Add a new helper function, `rpc_error_msg`, to aid in the above point~~
- Refactor `response_result` into `response_result_or_error` and patch reliant RPC handlers accordingly (thanks to @pawanjay176)
## Additional Info
Geth, as of Pangaea Expanse (v1.10.0), returns an explicit error when it is not synced past the EIP-155 block (2675000). Previously, Geth simply returned a chain ID of 0 (which was obviously much easier to handle on Lighthouse's part).

## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
I am starting to see a lot of slog-async overflows (i.e., too many logs) on Prater whenever we see attestations for an unknown block. Since these logs are identical (except for peer id) and we expose volume/count of these errors via `metrics::GOSSIP_ATTESTATION_ERRORS_PER_TYPE`, I took the following actions to remove them from `DEBUG` logs:
- Push the "Attestation for unknown block" log to trace.
- Add a debug log in `search_for_block`. In effect, this should serve as a de-duped version of the previous, downgraded log.

## Additional Info
This is not exactly the v1.4.0 release described in [Lighthouse Update #36](https://lighthouse.sigmaprime.io/update-36.html).
Whilst it contains:
- Beta Windows support
- A reduction in Eth1 queries
- A reduction in memory footprint
It does not contain:
- Altair
- Doppelganger Protection
- The remote signer
We have decided to release some features early. This is primarily due to the desire to allow users to benefit from the memory saving improvements as soon as possible.

## Proposed Changes
When observing `jemallocator` heap profiles and Grafana, it became clear that Lighthouse is spending significant RAM/CPU on processing blocks from the RPC. On investigation, it seems that we are loading the parent of the block *before* we check to see if the block is already known. This is a big waste of resources.
This PR adds an additional `check_block_relevancy` call as the first thing we do when we try to process a `SignedBeaconBlock` via the RPC (or other similar methods). Ultimately, `check_block_relevancy` will be called again later in the block processing flow. It's a very light function and I don't think trying to optimize it out is worth the risk of a bad block slipping through.
Also adds a `New RPC block received` info log when we process a new RPC block. This seems like interesting and infrequent info.
## Additional Info

## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Return a very specific error when at attestation reads shuffling from a frozen `BeaconState`. Previously, this was returning `MissingBeaconState` which indicates a much more serious issue.

## Proposed Changes
Whilst investigating #2372, I [learned](https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2372#issuecomment-851725049) that the error message returned from some failed Eth1 requests are always `NotReachable`. This makes debugging quite painful.
This PR adds more detail to these errors. For example:
- Bad infura key: `ERRO Failed to update eth1 cache error: Failed to update Eth1 service: "All fallback errored: https://mainnet.infura.io/ => EndpointError(RequestFailed(\"Response HTTP status was not 200 OK: 401 Unauthorized.\"))", retry_millis: 60000, service: eth1_rpc`
- Unreachable server: `ERRO Failed to update eth1 cache error: Failed to update Eth1 service: "All fallback errored: http://127.0.0.1:8545/ => EndpointError(RequestFailed(\"Request failed: reqwest::Error { kind: Request, url: Url { scheme: \\\"http\\\", cannot_be_a_base: false, username: \\\"\\\", password: None, host: Some(Ipv4(127.0.0.1)), port: Some(8545), path: \\\"/\\\", query: None, fragment: None }, source: hyper::Error(Connect, ConnectError(\\\"tcp connect error\\\", Os { code: 111, kind: ConnectionRefused, message: \\\"Connection refused\\\" })) }\"))", retry_millis: 60000, service: eth1_rpc`
- Bad server: `ERRO Failed to update eth1 cache error: Failed to update Eth1 service: "All fallback errored: http://127.0.0.1:8545/ => EndpointError(RequestFailed(\"Response HTTP status was not 200 OK: 501 Not Implemented.\"))", retry_millis: 60000, service: eth1_rpc`
## Additional Info

## Primary Change
When investigating memory usage, I noticed that retrieving a block from an early slot (e.g., slot 900) would cause a sharp increase in the memory footprint (from 400mb to 800mb+) which seemed to be ever-lasting.
After some investigation, I found that the reverse iteration from the head back to that slot was the likely culprit. To counter this, I've switched the `BeaconChain::block_root_at_slot` to use the forwards iterator, instead of the reverse one.
I also noticed that the networking stack is using `BeaconChain::root_at_slot` to check if a peer is relevant (`check_peer_relevance`). Perhaps the steep, seemingly-random-but-consistent increases in memory usage are caused by the use of this function.
Using the forwards iterator with the HTTP API alleviated the sharp increases in memory usage. It also made the response much faster (before it felt like to took 1-2s, now it feels instant).
## Additional Changes
In the process I also noticed that we have two functions for getting block roots:
- `BeaconChain::block_root_at_slot`: returns `None` for a skip slot.
- `BeaconChain::root_at_slot`: returns the previous root for a skip slot.
I unified these two functions into `block_root_at_slot` and added the `WhenSlotSkipped` enum. Now, the caller must be explicit about the skip-slot behaviour when requesting a root.
Additionally, I replaced `vec![]` with `Vec::with_capacity` in `store::chunked_vector::range_query`. I stumbled across this whilst debugging and made this modification to see what effect it would have (not much). It seems like a decent change to keep around, but I'm not concerned either way.
Also, `BeaconChain::get_ancestor_block_root` is unused, so I got rid of it 🗑️.
## Additional Info
I haven't also done the same for state roots here. Whilst it's possible and a good idea, it's more work since the fwds iterators are presently block-roots-specific.
Whilst there's a few places a reverse iteration of state roots could be triggered (e.g., attestation production, HTTP API), they're no where near as common as the `check_peer_relevance` call. As such, I think we should get this PR merged first, then come back for the state root iters. I made an issue here https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2377.
## Issue Addressed
#2325
## Proposed Changes
This pull request changes the behavior of the Peer Manager by including a minimum outbound-only peers requirement. The peer manager will continue querying for peers if this outbound-only target number hasn't been met. Additionally, when peers are being removed, an outbound-only peer will not be disconnected if doing so brings us below the minimum.
## Additional Info
Unit test for heartbeat function tests that disconnection behavior is correct. Continual querying for peers if outbound-only hasn't been met is not directly tested, but indirectly through unit testing of the helper function that counts the number of outbound-only peers.
EDIT: Am concerned about the behavior of ```update_peer_scores```. If we have connected to a peer with a score below the disconnection threshold (-20), then its connection status will remain connected, while its score state will change to disconnected.
```rust
let previous_state = info.score_state();
// Update scores
info.score_update();
Self::handle_score_transitions(
previous_state,
peer_id,
info,
&mut to_ban_peers,
&mut to_unban_peers,
&mut self.events,
&self.log,
);
```
```previous_state``` will be set to Disconnected, and then because ```handle_score_transitions``` only changes connection status for a peer if the state changed, the peer remains connected. Then in the heartbeat code, because we only disconnect healthy peers if we have too many peers, these peers don't get disconnected. I'm not sure realistically how often this scenario would occur, but it might be better to adjust the logic to account for scenarios where the score state implies a connection status different from the current connection status.

## Issue Addressed
#2282
## Proposed Changes
Reduce the outbound requests made to eth1 endpoints by caching the results from `eth_chainId` and `net_version`.
Further reduce the overall request count by increasing `auto_update_interval_millis` from `7_000` (7 seconds) to `60_000` (1 minute).
This will result in a reduction from ~2000 requests per hour to 360 requests per hour (during normal operation). A reduction of 82%.
## Additional Info
If an endpoint fails, its state is dropped from the cache and the `eth_chainId` and `net_version` calls will be made for that endpoint again during the regular update cycle (once per minute) until it is back online.

The ordering of adding new peers to the peerdb and deciding when to dial them was not considered in a previous update.
This adds the condition that if a peer is not in the peer-db then it is an acceptable peer to dial.
This makes #2374 obsolete.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Modify the configuration of [GNU malloc](https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/The-GNU-Allocator.html) to reduce memory footprint.
- Set `M_ARENA_MAX` to 4.
- This reduces memory fragmentation at the cost of contention between threads.
- Set `M_MMAP_THRESHOLD` to 2mb
- This means that any allocation >= 2mb is allocated via an anonymous mmap, instead of on the heap/arena. This reduces memory fragmentation since we don't need to keep growing the heap to find big contiguous slabs of free memory.
- ~~Run `malloc_trim` every 60 seconds.~~
- ~~This shaves unused memory from the top of the heap, preventing the heap from constantly growing.~~
- Removed, see: https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/2299#issuecomment-825322646
*Note: this only provides memory savings on the Linux (glibc) platform.*
## Additional Info
I'm going to close#2288 in favor of this for the following reasons:
- I've managed to get the memory footprint *smaller* here than with jemalloc.
- This PR seems to be less of a dramatic change than bringing in the jemalloc dep.
- The changes in this PR are strictly runtime changes, so we can create CLI flags which disable them completely. Since this change is wide-reaching and complex, it's nice to have an easy "escape hatch" if there are undesired consequences.
## TODO
- [x] Allow configuration via CLI flags
- [x] Test on Mac
- [x] Test on RasPi.
- [x] Determine if GNU malloc is present?
- I'm not quite sure how to detect for glibc.. This issue suggests we can't really: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/33244
- [x] Make a clear argument regarding the affect of this on CPU utilization.
- [x] Test with higher `M_ARENA_MAX` values.
- [x] Test with longer trim intervals
- [x] Add some stats about memory savings
- [x] Remove `malloc_trim` calls & code
## Issue Addressed
Windows incompatibility.
## Proposed Changes
On windows, lighthouse needs to default to STDIN as tty doesn't exist. Also Windows uses ACLs for file permissions. So to mirror chmod 600, we will remove every entry in a file's ACL and add only a single SID that is an alias for the file owner.
Beyond that, there were several changes made to different unit tests because windows has slightly different error messages as well as frustrating nuances around killing a process :/
## Additional Info
Tested on my Windows VM and it appears to work, also compiled & tested on Linux with these changes. Permissions look correct on both platforms now. Just waiting for my validator to activate on Prater so I can test running full validator client on windows.

## Additional Info
This is a minor release (not patch) due to the very slight change introduced by #2291.
## Proposed Changes
Use two instances of max cover when packing attestations into blocks: one for the previous epoch, and one for the current epoch. This reduces the amount of computation done by roughly half due to the `O(n^2)` running time of max cover (`2 * (n/2)^2 = n^2/2`). This should help alleviate some load on block proposal, particularly on Prater.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
- Adds a specific log and metric for when a block is enshrined as head with a delay that will caused bad attestations
- We *technically* already expose this information, but it's a little tricky to determine during debugging. This makes it nice and explicit.
- Fixes a minor reporting bug with the validator monitor where it was expecting agg. attestations too early (at half-slot rather than two-thirds-slot).
## Additional Info

## Proposed Changes
- Ensure that the [target consistency check](b356f52c5c) is always performed on aggregates.
- Add a regression test.

This is a small PR that cleans up compiler warnings.
The most controversial change is removing the `data_dir` field from the `BeaconChainBuilder`.

## Proposed Changes
Avoids cloning the `BeaconState` each time Prometheus scrapes our metrics (generally every 5s 😱).
I think the original motivation behind this was *"don't hold the lock on the head whilst we do computation on it"*, however I think is flawed since our computation here is so small that it'll be quicker than the clone.
The primary motivation here is to maintain a small memory footprint by holding less in memory (i.e., the cloned `BeaconState`) and to avoid the fragmentation-creep that occurs when cloning the big contiguous slabs of memory in the `BeaconState`.
I also collapsed the active/slashed/withdrawn counters into a single loop to increase efficiency.

## Proposed Changes
I noticed the following error on one of our nodes:
```
Mar 18 00:03:35 ip-xxxx lighthouse-bn[333503]: Mar 18 00:03:35.103 ERRO Unable to validate aggregate error: ObservedAttestersError(EpochTooLow { epoch: Epoch(23961), lowest_permissible_epoch: Epoch(23962) }), peer_id: 16Uiu2HAm5GL5KzPLhvfg9MBBFSpBqTVGRFSiTg285oezzWcZzwEv
```
The slot during this log was 766,815 (the last slot of the epoch). I believe this is due to an off-by-one error in `observed_attesters` where we were failing to provide enough capacity to store observations from the previous, current and next epochs. See code comments for further reasoning.

## Proposed Changes
* Modify the `YamlConfig` to collect unknown fields into an `extra_fields` map, instead of failing hard.
* Log a debug message if there are extra fields returned to the VC from one of its BNs.
This restores Lighthouse's compatibility with Teku beacon nodes (and therefore Infura)
## 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

## 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

While investigating an incorrect head + target vote for the epoch boundary block 708544, I noticed that the state advance failed to prime the proposer cache, as per these logs:

```
The reason for this is that the condition was backwards, so that whole block of code was unreachable.
Looking at the attestations for the block included in the block after, we can see that lots of validators missed it. Some of them may be Lighthouse v1.1.1-v1.2.0-rc.0, but it's probable that they would have missed even with the proposer cache primed, given how late the block 708544 arrived (the cache miss occurred 3.787s after the slot start): https://beaconcha.in/block/708545#attestations
This is a small PR which prevents unwanted bootnodes from being added to the DHT and being dialed when the `--disable-discovery` flag is set.
The main reason one would want to disable discovery is to connect to a fix set of peers. Currently, regardless of what the user does, Lighthouse will populate its DHT with previously known peers and also fill it with the spec's bootnodes. It will then dial the bootnodes that are capable of being dialed. This prevents testing with a fixed peer list.
This PR prevents these excess nodes from being added and dialed if the user has set `--disable-discovery`.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
- Use the pre-states from #2174 during block production.
- Running this on Pyrmont shows block production times dropping from ~550ms to ~150ms.
- Create `crit` and `warn` logs when a block is published to the API later than we expect.
- On mainnet we are issuing a warn if the block is published more than 1s later than the slot start and a crit for more than 3s.
- Rename some methods on the `SnapshotCache` for clarity.
- Add the ability to pass the state root to `BeaconChain::produce_block_on_state` to avoid computing a state root. This is a very common LH optimization.
- Add a metric that tracks how late we broadcast blocks received from the HTTP API. This is *technically* a duplicate of a `ValidatorMonitor` log, but I wanted to have it for the case where we aren't monitoring validators too.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#1787
## Proposed Changes
* Abstract the `ValidatorPubkeyCache` over a "backing" which is either a file (legacy), or the database.
* Implement a migration from schema v2 to schema v3, whereby the contents of the cache file are copied to the DB, and then the file is deleted. The next release to include this change must be a minor version bump, and we will need to warn users of the inability to downgrade (this is our first DB schema change since mainnet genesis).
* Move the schema migration code from the `store` crate into the `beacon_chain` crate so that it can access the datadir and the `ValidatorPubkeyCache`, etc. It gets injected back into the `store` via a closure (similar to what we do in fork choice).
## Issue Addressed

## Problem this PR addresses
There's an issue where Lighthouse is banning a lot of peers due to the following sequence of events:
1. Gossip block 0xabc arrives ~200ms early
- It is propagated across the network, with respect to [`MAXIMUM_GOSSIP_CLOCK_DISPARITY`](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.0.0/specs/phase0/p2p-interface.md#why-is-there-maximum_gossip_clock_disparity-when-validating-slot-ranges-of-messages-in-gossip-subnets).
- However, it is not imported to our database since the block is early.
2. Attestations for 0xabc arrive, but the block was not imported.
- The peer that sent the attestation is down-voted.
- Each unknown-block attestation causes a score loss of 1, the peer is banned at -100.
- When the peer is on an attestation subnet there can be hundreds of attestations, so the peer is banned quickly (before the missed block can be obtained via rpc).
## Potential solutions
I can think of three solutions to this:
1. Wait for attestation-queuing (#635) to arrive and solve this.
- Easy
- Not immediate fix.
- Whilst this would work, I don't think it's a perfect solution for this particular issue, rather (3) is better.
1. Allow importing blocks with a tolerance of `MAXIMUM_GOSSIP_CLOCK_DISPARITY`.
- Easy
- ~~I have implemented this, for now.~~
1. If a block is verified for gossip propagation (i.e., signature verified) and it's within `MAXIMUM_GOSSIP_CLOCK_DISPARITY`, then queue it to be processed at the start of the appropriate slot.
- More difficult
- Feels like the best solution, I will try to implement this.
**This PR takes approach (3).**
## Changes included
- Implement the `block_delay_queue`, based upon a [`DelayQueue`](https://docs.rs/tokio-util/0.6.3/tokio_util/time/delay_queue/struct.DelayQueue.html) which can store blocks until it's time to import them.
- Add a new `DelayedImportBlock` variant to the `beacon_processor::WorkEvent` enum to handle this new event.
- In the `BeaconProcessor`, refactor a `tokio::select!` to a struct with an explicit `Stream` implementation. I experienced some issues with `tokio::select!` in the block delay queue and I also found it hard to debug. I think this explicit implementation is nicer and functionally equivalent (apart from the fact that `tokio::select!` randomly chooses futures to poll, whereas now we're deterministic).
- Add a testing framework to the `beacon_processor` module that tests this new block delay logic. I also tested a handful of other operations in the beacon processor (attns, slashings, exits) since it was super easy to copy-pasta the code from the `http_api` tester.
- To implement these tests I added the concept of an optional `work_journal_tx` to the `BeaconProcessor` which will spit out a log of events. I used this in the tests to ensure that things were happening as I expect.
- The tests are a little racey, but it's hard to avoid that when testing timing-based code. If we see CI failures I can revise. I haven't observed *any* failures due to races on my machine or on CI yet.
- To assist with testing I allowed for directly setting the time on the `ManualSlotClock`.
- I gave the `beacon_processor::Worker` a `Toolbox` for two reasons; (a) it avoids changing tons of function sigs when you want to pass a new object to the worker and (b) it seemed cute.
## Issue Addressed
- Resolves#2215
## Proposed Changes
Addresses a potential loop when the majority of peers indicate that we are contactable via an IPv6 address.
See https://github.com/sigp/discv5/pull/62 for further rationale.
## Additional Info
The alternative to this PR is to use `--disable-enr-auto-update` and then manually supply an `--enr-address` and `--enr-upd-port`. However, that requires the user to know their IP addresses in order for discovery to work properly. This might not be practical/achievable for some users, hence this hotfix.
The current implementation assumes the range offset of slots downloaded on a batch to equal zero. This conflicts with the condition to consider this chain as sync. For finalized sync, it results in one extra batch being downloaded which can't be processed.

## 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`?~~

## 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

## Proposed Changes
Fixes a bug that I missed during a review in #2163. I found this bug by observing that nodes were receiving far less attestations (~1/2 of previous).
I'm not certain on *exactly* how this mistake manifested in a reduction in attestations, but the mistake touches so much code that I think it's reasonable to declare that this it the cause of the observed issue (drop in attestations).

## Issue Addressed
The non-finality period on Pyrmont between epochs [`9114`](https://pyrmont.beaconcha.in/epoch/9114) and [`9182`](https://pyrmont.beaconcha.in/epoch/9182) was contributed to by all the `lighthouse_team` validators going down. The nodes saw excessive CPU and RAM usage, resulting in the system to kill the `lighthouse bn` process. The `Restart=on-failure` directive for `systemd` caused the process to bounce in ~10-30m intervals.
Diagnosis with `heaptrack` showed that the `BeaconChain::produce_unaggregated_attestation` function was calling `store::beacon_state::get_full_state` and sometimes resulting in a tree hash cache allocation. These allocations were approximately the size of the hosts physical memory and still allocated when `lighthouse bn` was killed by the OS.
There was no CPU analysis (e.g., `perf`), but the `BeaconChain::produce_unaggregated_attestation` is very CPU-heavy so it is reasonable to assume it is the cause of the excessive CPU usage, too.
## Proposed Changes
`BeaconChain::produce_unaggregated_attestation` has two paths:
1. Fast path: attesting to the head slot or later.
2. Slow path: attesting to a slot earlier than the head block.
Path (2) is the only path that calls `store::beacon_state::get_full_state`, therefore it is the path causing this excessive CPU/RAM usage.
This PR removes the current functionality of path (2) and replaces it with a static error (`BeaconChainError::AttestingPriorToHead`).
This change reduces the generality of `BeaconChain::produce_unaggregated_attestation` (and therefore [`/eth/v1/validator/attestation_data`](https://ethereum.github.io/eth2.0-APIs/#/Validator/produceAttestationData)), but I argue that this functionality is an edge-case and arguably a violation of the [Honest Validator spec](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/dev/specs/phase0/validator.md).
It's possible that a validator goes back to a prior slot to "catch up" and submit some missed attestations. This change would prevent such behaviour, returning an error. My concerns with this catch-up behaviour is that it is:
- Not specified as "honest validator" attesting behaviour.
- Is behaviour that is risky for slashing (although, all validator clients *should* have slashing protection and will eventually fail if they do not).
- It disguises clock-sync issues between a BN and VC.
## Additional Info
It's likely feasible to implement path (2) if we implement some sort of caching mechanism. This would be a multi-week task and this PR gets the issue patched in the short term. I haven't created an issue to add path (2), instead I think we should implement it if we get user-demand.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes

## Proposed Changes
`@potuz` on the Eth R&D Discord observed that Lighthouse blocks on Pyrmont were always arriving at other nodes after at least 1 second. Part of this could be due to processing and slow propagation, but metrics also revealed that the Lighthouse nodes were usually taking 400-600ms to even just produce a block before broadcasting it.
I tracked the slowness down to the lack of a pre-built tree hash cache (THC) on the states being used for block production. This was due to using the head state for block production, which lacks a THC in order to keep fork choice fast (cloning a THC takes at least 30ms for 100k validators). This PR modifies block production to clone a state from the snapshot cache rather than the head, which speeds things up by 200-400ms by avoiding the tree hash cache rebuild. In practice this seems to have cut block production time down to 300ms or less. Ideally we could _remove_ the snapshot from the cache (and save the 30ms), but it is required for when we re-process the block after signing it with the validator client.
## Alternatives
I experimented with 2 alternatives to this approach, before deciding on it:
* Alternative 1: ensure the `head` has a tree hash cache. This is too slow, as it imposes a +30ms hit on fork choice, which currently takes ~5ms (with occasional spikes).
* Alternative 2: use `Arc<BeaconSnapshot>` in the snapshot cache and share snapshots between the cache and the `head`. This made fork choice blazing fast (1ms), and block production the same as in this PR, but had a negative impact on block processing which I don't think is worth it. It ended up being necessary to clone the full state from the snapshot cache during block production, imposing the +30ms penalty there _as well_ as in block production.
In contract, the approach in this PR should only impact block production, and it improves it! Yay for pareto improvements 🎉
## Additional Info
This commit (ac59dfa) is currently running on all the Lighthouse Pyrmont nodes, and I've added a dashboard to the Pyrmont grafana instance with the metrics.
In future work we should optimise the attestation packing, which consumes around 30-60ms and is now a substantial contributor to the total.

This follows on from @blacktemplar's work in #2018.
- Allows the VC to connect to multiple BN for redundancy.
- Update the simulator so some nodes always need to rely on their fallback.
- Adds some extra deprecation warnings for `--eth1-endpoint`
- Pass `SignatureBytes` as a reference instead of by value.

## Proposed Changes
* Broadcast slashings when the `--slasher-broadcast` flag is provided.
* In the process of implementing this I refactored the slasher service into its own crate so that it could access the network code without creating a circular dependency. I moved the responsibility for putting slashings into the op pool into the service as well, as it makes sense for it to handle the whole slashing lifecycle.

There seemed to be confusion among discord users on the eth1 fallback logging
```
WARN Error connecting to eth1 node. Trying fallback ..., endpoint: http://127.0.0.1:8545/, service: eth1_rpc
```
The assumption users seem to be making here is that it is trying the fallback and fallback=endpoint in the log.
This PR improves the logging to be like
```
WARN Error connecting to eth1 node endpoint, endpoint: http://127.0.0.1:8545/, action: trying fallbacks, service: eth1_rpc
```
I think this is a bit more clear that the endpoint that failed is the one in the log.

## Issue Addressed
Users are reporting errors for sending attestations to peers. If the clock sync is a little out or we receive attestations before blocks, peers are being too harshly penalized. They can get scored many times per missing block and we typically need these peers on subnets.
## Proposed Changes
This removes the penalization for missing blocks with attestations. The penalty should be handled when #635 gets built as it will allow us to group attestations per missing block and penalize once.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#2028
Replaces #2059
## Proposed Changes
If writing to the database fails while importing a block, revert fork choice to the last version stored on disk. This prevents fork choice from being ahead of the blocks on disk. Having fork choice ahead is particularly bad if it is later successfully written to disk, because it renders the database corrupt (see #2028).
## Additional Info
* This mitigation might fail if the head+fork choice haven't been persisted yet, which can only happen at first startup (see #2067)
* This relies on it being OK for the head tracker to be ahead of fork choice. I figure this is tolerable because blocks only get added to the head tracker after successfully being written on disk _and_ to fork choice, so even if fork choice reverts a little bit, when the pruning algorithm runs, those blocks will still be on disk and OK to prune. The pruning algorithm also doesn't rely on heads being unique, technically it's OK for multiple blocks from the same linear chain segment to be present in the head tracker. This begs the question of #1785 (i.e. things would be simpler with the head tracker out of the way). Alternatively, this PR could just revert the head tracker as well (I'll look into this tomorrow).
## Issue Addressed
Closes#1264
## Proposed Changes
* Milagro BLS: tweak the feature flags so that Milagro doesn't get compiled if we're using BLST. Profiling showed that it was consuming about 1 minute of CPU time out of 60 minutes of CPU time (real time ~15 mins). A 1.6% saving.
* Reduce monomorphization: compiling for 3 different `EthSpec` types causes a heck of a lot of generic functions to be instantiated (monomorphized). Removing 2 of 3 cuts the LLVM+linking step from around 250 seconds to 180 seconds, a saving of 70 seconds (real time!). This applies only to `make` and not the CI build, because we test with the minimal spec on CI.
* Update `web3` crate to v0.13. This is perhaps the most controversial change, because it requires axing some deposit contract tools from `lcli`. I suspect these tools weren't used much anyway, and could be maintained separately, but I'm also happy to revert this change. However, it does save us a lot of compile time. With #1839, we now have 3 versions of Tokio (and all of Tokio's deps). This change brings us down to 2 versions, but 1 should be achievable once web3 (and reqwest) move to Tokio 0.3.
* Remove `lcli` from the Docker image. It's a dev tool and can be built from the repo if required.
## Issue Addressed
#2046
## Proposed Changes
The log was originally intended to verify the correct logic and ordering of events when scoring peers. The queued tasks can be structured in such a way that peers can be banned after they are disconnected. Therefore the error log is now downgraded to debug log.
## Issue Addressed
#1992 and #1987, and also to be considered a continuation of #1751
## Proposed Changes
many changed files but most are renaming to align the code with the semantics of `--network`
- remove the `--network` default value (in clap) and instead set it after checking the `network` and `testnet-dir` flags
- move `eth2_testnet_config` crate to `eth2_network_config`
- move `Eth2TestnetConfig` to `Eth2NetworkConfig`
- move `DEFAULT_HARDCODED_TESTNET` to `DEFAULT_HARDCODED_NETWORK`
- `beacon_node`s `get_eth2_testnet_config` loads the `DEFAULT_HARDCODED_NETWORK` if there is no network nor testnet provided
- `boot_node`s config loads the config same as the `beacon_node`, it was using the configuration only for preconfigured networks (That code is ~1year old so I asume it was not intended)
- removed a one year old comment stating we should try to emulate `https://github.com/eth2-clients/eth2-testnets/tree/master/nimbus/testnet1` it looks outdated (?)
- remove `lighthouse`s `load_testnet_config` in favor of `get_eth2_network_config` to centralize that logic (It had differences)
- some spelling
## Additional Info
Both the command of #1992 and the scripts of #1987 seem to work fine, same as `bn` and `vc`

## Proposed Changes
This was mostly done to find the reason why LH was dropping peers from Nimbus. It proved to be useful so I think it's worth it. But there is also some functional stuff here
- Add metrics for rpc errors per client, error type and direction
- Add metrics for downscoring events per source type, client and penalty type
- Add metrics for gossip validation results per client for non-accepted messages
- Make the RPC handler return errors and requests/responses in the order we see them
- Allow a small burst for the Ping rate limit, from 1 every 5 seconds to 2 every 10 seconds
- Send rate limiting errors with a particular code and use that same code to identify them. I picked something different to 128 since that is most likely what other clients are using for their own errors
- Remove some unused code in the `PeerAction` and the rpc handler
- Remove the unused variant `RateLimited`. tTis was never produced directly, since the only way to get the request's protocol is via de handler. The handler upon receiving from LH a response with an error (rate limited in this case) emits this event with the missing info (It was always like this, just pointing out that we do downscore rate limiting errors regardless of the change)
Metrics for Nimbus looked like this:
Downscoring events: `increase(libp2p_peer_actions_per_client{client="Nimbus"}[5m])`
RPC Errors: `increase(libp2p_rpc_errors_per_client{client="Nimbus"}[5m])`
Unaccepted gossip message: `increase(gossipsub_unaccepted_messages_per_client{client="Nimbus"}[5m])`

## Issue Addressed
Closes#2042
## Proposed Changes
Pass blocks that fail gossip verification to the slasher. Blocks that are successfully verified are not passed immediately, but will be passed as part of full block verification.
## Issue
Some eth1 clients are missing deposit logs on mainnet for multiple reasons (not fully synced, eth1 client issues) because of which we are getting `FailedToInsertDeposit` errors.
Ideally, LH should pick up where it left off after pointing it to a nice eth1 client endpoint (which has all deposits).
However, I have seen instances where LH keeps getting `FailedToInsertDeposit` even after switching to a good endpoint. Only deleting the beacon directory (which also wipes the eth1 cache) and resyncing the eth1 caches seems to be the solution. This wouldn't be great for mainnet if you have to sync your beacon node again as well.
## Proposed Changes
Add a `--purge-eth1-db` option which just wipes the eth1 cache and doesn't touch the rest of the beacon db.
Still need to investigate if and why LH isn't picking up where it left off for the deposit logs sync, but I think it would be good to have an option to just delete eth1 caches regardless.

Fixes a couple of low hanging fruits.
- Fixes#2037
- `validators-dir` and `secrets-dir` flags don't really need to depend upon each other
- Fixes#2006 and Fixes#1995
Adds a `--privacy` CLI flag to the beacon node that users may opt into.

- Removes client identifying information from the identify libp2p protocol
- Changes the default graffiti to "" if no graffiti is set.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
- Log about eth1 whilst waiting for genesis.
- For the block and deposit caches, update them after each download instead of when *all* downloads are complete.
- This prevents the case where a single timeout error can cause us to drop *all* previously download blocks/deposits.
- Set `max_log_requests_per_update` to avoid timeouts due to very large log counts in a response.
- Set `max_blocks_per_update` to prevent a single update of the block cache to download an unreasonable number of blocks.
- This shouldn't have any affect in normal use, it's just a safe-guard against bugs.
- Increase the timeout for eth1 calls from 15s to 60s, as per @pawanjay176's experience with Infura.

Update lighthouse to version `v1.0.2`.
There are two major updates in this version:
- Updates to the task executor to tokio 0.3 and all sub-dependencies relying on core execution, including libp2p
- Update BLST
## Description
This PR updates Lighthouse to tokio 0.3. It includes a number of dependency updates and some structural changes as to how we create and spawn tasks.
This also brings with it a number of various improvements:
- Discv5 update
- Libp2p update
- Fix for recompilation issues
- Improved UPnP port mapping handling
- Futures dependency update
- Log downgrade to traces for rejecting peers when we've reached our max

## Issue Addressed
part of #1883
## Proposed Changes
Adds a new cli argument `--eth1-endpoints` that can be used instead of `--eth1-endpoint` to specify a comma-separated list of endpoints. If the first endpoint returns an error for some request the other endpoints are tried in the given order.
## Additional Info
Currently if the first endpoint fails the fallbacks are used silently (except for `try_fallback_test_endpoint` that is used in `do_update` which logs a `WARN` for each endpoint that is not reachable). A question is if we should add more logs so that the user gets warned if his main endpoint is for example just slow and sometimes hits timeouts.
## Proposed Changes
A user on Discord reported build issues when trying to compile Lighthouse checked out to a path with spaces in it. I've fixed the issue upstream in `leveldb-sys` (https://github.com/skade/leveldb-sys/pull/22), but rather than waiting for a new release of the `leveldb` crate, we can also work around the issue by disabling Snappy in LevelDB, which we weren't using anyway.
This may also have the side-effect of slightly improving compilation times, as LevelDB+Snappy was found to be a substantial contributor to build time (although I'm not sure how much was LevelDB and how much was Snappy).
## Issue Addressed
- Add metrics to keep track of peer counts by sync type
- Add metric to keep track of the number of syncing chains in range
## Proposed Changes
Plugin to the network metrics update interval and update too the counts for peers wrt to their sync status with us
## Additional Info
For the peer counts
- By the way it is implemented the numbers won't always match to the total peer count in the `libp2p` metric.
- Updating the gauge with every change is messy because it requires to be updated on connection (in the `eth2_libp2p` crate, while metrics are defined in the `network` crate) on Goodbye sent (for an `IrrelevantPeer`) either in the `beacon_processor` or the `peer_manager`, and on disconnection. Since this is not a critical metric I think counting once every second is enough. If you think more accuracy is needed we can do it too, but it would be harder to maintain)
ATM those look like this
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
- Adds a HTTP server to the VC which provides Prometheus metrics.
- Moves the health metrics into the `lighthouse_metrics` crate so it can be shared between BN/VC.
- Sprinkle some metrics around the VC.

- Shifts the "waiting for genesis" logic later in the `ProductionValidatorClient::new_from_cli`
- This is worth attention during the review.

## Issue Addressed
Resolves#1890
## Proposed Changes
Change the slasher database schema to key indexed attestations by `(target_epoch, indexed_attestation_root)` instead of just `indexed_attestation_root`. This allows more straight-forward pruning (linear scan), that is also "re-entrant". By re-entrant, we mean that a pruning pass that gets stuck because of a `MapFull` error can attempt to commit midway, and be resumed later without issue. The previous pruning strategy for indexed attestations did not have this property. There was also a flaw in the previous pruning that could leave "zombie" indexed attestations in the database (ones not referenced by any attester record), which could build up and contribute to bloat (although in practice I think they occur quite infrequently).
## Additional Info
During testing I noticed that a `MapFull` error can still occur during the commit of the transaction itself, which is irritating, but not unbearable. This PR should at least reduce the frequency with which users need to manually resize their DB, and if the `MapFull` on commit rears its ugly head too often we could use a dynamic strategy (temporarily increase the size of the map until the transaction commits).
The extra bytes for the epoch make the database a bit heavier, so the size estimate docs have been updated to reflect this. This is also a breaking schema change, so anyone using a v0 database from a few hours ago will need to drop it and update 😅
This is an implementation of a slasher that lives inside the BN and can be enabled via `lighthouse bn --slasher`.
Features included in this PR:
- [x] Detection of attester slashing conditions (double votes, surrounds existing, surrounded by existing)
- [x] Integration into Lighthouse's attestation verification flow
- [x] Detection of proposer slashing conditions
- [x] Extraction of attestations from blocks as they are verified
- [x] Compression of chunks
- [x] Configurable history length
- [x] Pruning of old attestations and blocks
- [x] More tests
Future work:
* Focus on a slice of history separate from the most recent N epochs (e.g. epochs `current - K` to `current - M`)
* Run out-of-process
* Ingest attestations from the chain without a resync

## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Add a `GET lighthouse/staking` that returns 200 if the node is ready to stake (i.e., `--eth1` flag is present) or a 404 otherwise.

## Proposed Changes
Adds the `--import-all-attestations` flag which tells the `network::AttestationService` to import/aggregate all attestations after verification (instead of only ones for subnets that are relevant to local validators).
This is useful for testing/debugging and also for creating back-up nodes that should be all cached up and ready for any validator.

## Proposed Changes
- Caches later blocks than is required by `ETH1_FOLLOW_DISTANCE`.
- Adds logging to `warn` if the eth1 cache is insufficiently primed.
- Use `max_by_key` instead of `max_by` in `BeaconChain::Eth1Chain` since it's simpler.
- Rename `voting_period_start_timestamp` to `voting_target_timestamp` for accuracy.
## Additional Info
The reason for eating into the `ETH1_FOLLOW_DISTANCE` and caching blocks that are closer to the head is due to possibility for `SECONDS_PER_ETH1_BLOCK` to be incorrect (as is the case for the Pyrmont testnet on Goerli).
If `SECONDS_PER_ETH1_BLOCK` is too short, we'll skip back too far from the head and skip over blocks that would be valid [`is_candidate_block`](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/v1.0.0/specs/phase0/validator.md#eth1-data) blocks. This was the case on the Pyrmont testnet and resulted in Lighthouse choosing blocks that were about 30 minutes older than is ideal.
## Issue Addressed

## Issue Addressed
`BlocksByRange` requests were the main culprit of a series of timeouts to peer's requests in general because they produce build up in the router's processor. Those were moved to the blocking executor but a task is being spawned for each; also not ideal since the amount of resources we give to those is not controlled
## Proposed Changes
- Move `BlocksByRange` and `BlocksByRoots` to the `beacon_processor`. The processor crafts the responses and sends them.
- Move too the processing of `StatusMessage`s from other peers. This is a fast operation but it can also build up and won't scale if we keep it in the router (processing one at the time). These don't need to send an answer, so there is no harm in processing them "later" if that were to happen. Sending responses to status requests is still in the router, so we answer as soon as we see them.
- Some "extras" that are basically clean up:
- Split the `Worker` logic in sync methods (chain processing and rpc blocks), gossip methods (the majority of methods) and rpc methods (the new ones)
- Move the `status_message` function previously provided by the router's processor to a more central place since it is used by the router, sync, network_context and beacon_processor
- Some spelling
## Additional Info
What's left to decide/test more thoroughly is the length of the queues and the priority rules. @paulhauner suggested at some point to put status above attestations, and @AgeManning had described an importance of "protecting gossipsub" so my solution is leaving status requests in the router and RPC methods below attestations. Slashings and Exits are at the end.
## Issue Addressed
Catching up on a few eth2 spec updates:
## Proposed Changes
- adding query params to the `GET pool/attestations` endpoint

## Proposed Changes
Removes most of the temporary string initializations in network metrics and replaces them by directly using `&str`. This further improves on PR https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/1895.
For the subnet id handling the current approach uses a build script to create a static map. This has the disadvantage that the build script hardcodes the number of subnets. If we want to use more than 64 subnets we need to adjust this in the build script.
## Additional Info
We still have some string initializations for the enum `PeerKind`. To also replace that by `&str` I created a PR in the libp2p dependency: https://github.com/sigp/rust-libp2p/pull/91. Either we wait with merging until this dependency PR is merged (and all conflicts with the newest libp2p version are resolved) or we just merge as is and I will create another PR when the dependency is ready.

## Proposed Changes
Stops the `BackgroupMigrator` rx channel from backing up with big `BeaconState` messages.
Looking at some logs from my Medalla node, we can see a discrepancy between the head finalized epoch and the migrator finalized epoch:
```

I believe this indicates that the migrator rx has a backed-up queue of `MigrationNotification` items which each contain a `BeaconState`.
## TODO
- [x] Remove finalized state requirement for op-pool
## Proposed Changes
In an attempt to fix OOM issues and database consistency issues observed by some users after the introduction of compaction in v0.3.4, this PR makes the following changes:
* Run compaction less often: roughly every 1024 epochs, including after long periods of non-finality. I think the division check proposed by Paul is pretty solid, and ensures we don't miss any events where we should be compacting. LevelDB lacks an easy way to check the size of the DB, which would be another good trigger.
* Make it possible to disable the compaction on finalization using `--auto-compact-db=false`
* Make it possible to trigger a manual, single-threaded foreground compaction on start-up using `--compact-db`
* Downgrade the pruning log to `DEBUG`, as it's particularly noisy during sync
I would like to ship these changes to affected users ASAP, and will document them further in the Advanced Database section of the book if they prove effective.
## Issue Addressed
A peer might send a lot of requests that comply to the rate limit and the disconnect, this humongous pr makes sure we don't process them if the peer is not connected
This PR adds a number of improvements:
- Downgrade a warning log when we ignore blocks for gossipsub processing
- Revert a a correction to improve logging of peer score changes
- Shift syncing DB reads off the core-executor allowing parallel processing of large sync messages
- Correct the timeout logic of RPC chunk sends, giving more time before timing out RPC outbound messages.
## Issue Addressed
- RPC Errors were being logged twice: first in the peer manager and then again in the router, so leave just the peer manager's one
- The "reduce peer count" warn message gets thrown to the user for every missed chunk, so instead print it when the request times out and also do not include there info that is not relevant to the user
- The processor didn't have the service tag so add it
- Impl `KV` for status message
- Do not downscore peers if we are the ones that timed out
Other small improvements
## Issue Addressed

## Issue Addressed
#1856
## Proposed Changes
- For clarity, the router's processor now only decides if a peer is compatible and it disconnects it or sends it to sync accordingly. No logic here regarding how useful is the peer.
- Update peer_sync_info's rules
- Add an `IrrelevantPeer` sync status to account for incompatible peers (maybe this should be "IncompatiblePeer" now that I think about it?) this state is update upon receiving an internal goodbye in the peer manager
- Misc code cleanups
- Reduce the need to create `StatusMessage`s (and thus, `Arc` accesses )
- Add missing calls to update the global sync state
The overall effect should be:
- More peers recognized as Behind, and less as Unknown
- Peers identified as incompatible
## Issue Addressed
- Asymmetric pings - Currently with symmetric ping intervals, lighthouse nodes race each other to ping often ending in simultaneous ping connections. This shifts the ping interval to be asymmetric based on inbound/outbound connections
- Correct inbound/outbound peer-db registering - It appears we were accounting inbound as outbound and vice versa in the peerdb, this has been corrected
- Improved logging
There is likely more to come - I'll leave this open as we investigate further testnets
## Issue Addressed
Using `heaptrack` I could see that ~75% of Lighthouse temporary allocations are caused by temporary string allocations here.
## Proposed Changes
Reduces temporary `String` allocations when updating metrics in the `network` crate. The solution isn't perfect since we rebuild our caches with each call, but it's a significant improvement.

## Proposed Changes
Increases the target peers for a subnet, so that subnet queries are executed until we have at least the minimum required peers for a mesh (`MESH_N_LOW`). We keep the limit of `6` target peers for aggregated subnet discovery queries, therefore the size (and the time needed) for a query doesn't change.
## Issue Addressed
#1606
## Proposed Changes
Uses dynamic gossipsub scoring parameters depending on the number of active validators as specified in https://gist.github.com/blacktemplar/5c1862cb3f0e32a1a7fb0b25e79e6e2c.
## Additional Info
Although the parameters got tested on Medalla, extensive testing using simulations on larger networks is still to be done and we expect that we need to change the parameters, although this might only affect constants within the dynamic parameter framework.

## Issue Addressed
Closes#1866
## Proposed Changes
* Compact the database on finalization. This removes the deleted states from disk completely. Because it happens in the background migrator, it doesn't block other database operations while it runs. On my Medalla node it took about 1 minute and shrank the database from 90GB to 9GB.
* Fix an inefficiency in the pruning algorithm where it would always use the genesis checkpoint as the `old_finalized_checkpoint` when running for the first time after start-up. This would result in loading lots of states one-at-a-time back to genesis, and storing a lot of block roots in memory. The new code stores the old finalized checkpoint on disk and only uses genesis if no checkpoint is already stored. This makes it both backwards compatible _and_ forwards compatible -- no schema change required!
* Introduce two new `INFO` logs to indicate when pruning has started and completed. Users seem to want to know this information without enabling debug logs!
Updates libp2p to the latest version.
This adds tokio 0.3 support and brings back yamux support.
This also updates some discv5 configuration parameters for leaner discovery queries
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
Lets the networking behavior ignore messages of peers that are not connected. Furthermore, old peers are not removed from the peerdb based on score anymore but based on the disconnection time.
## Issue Addressed
- Related to #1691
## Proposed Changes
Adds the following API endpoints:
- `GET lighthouse/eth1/syncing`: status about how synced we are with Eth1.
- `GET lighthouse/eth1/block_cache`: all locally cached eth1 blocks.
- `GET lighthouse/eth1/deposit_cache`: all locally cached eth1 deposits.
Additionally:
- Moves some types from the `beacon_node/eth1` to the `common/eth2` crate, so they can be used in the API without duplication.
- Allow `update_deposit_cache` and `update_block_cache` to take an optional head block number to avoid duplicate requests.
## Additional Info

## Issue Addressed
Fixes head syncing
## Proposed Changes
- Get back to statusing peers after removing chain segments and making the peer manager deal with status according to the Sync status, preventing an old known deadlock

## Issue Addressed
Sync edge case when we get an empty optimistic batch that passes validation and is inside the download buffer. Eventually the chain would reach the batch and treat it as an ugly state.
## Proposed Changes
- Handle the edge case advancing the chain's target + code clarification
- Some largey changes for readability + ergonomics since rust has try ops
- Better handling of bad batch and chain states
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Currently a banned peer will remain banned indefinitely as long as update is called on the score struct regularly. This fixes this bug and the score decay starts after `BANNED_BEFORE_DECAY` seconds after banning.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#1504Closes#1505
Replaces #1703Closes#1707
## Proposed Changes
* Update BLST and Milagro to versions compatible with BLSv4 spec
* Update Lighthouse to spec v1.0.0-rc.0, and update EF test vectors
* Use the v1.0.0 constants for `MainnetEthSpec`.
* Rename `InteropEthSpec` -> `V012LegacyEthSpec`
* Change all constants to suit the mainnet `v0.12.3` specification (i.e., Medalla).
* Deprecate the `--spec` flag for the `lighthouse` binary
* This value is now obtained from the `config_name` field of the `YamlConfig`.
* Built in testnet YAML files have been updated.
* Ignore the `--spec` value, if supplied, log a warning that it will be deprecated
* `lcli` still has the spec flag, that's fine because it's dev tooling.
* Remove the `E: EthSpec` from `YamlConfig`
* This means we need to deser the genesis `BeaconState` on-demand, but this is fine.
* Swap the old "minimal", "mainnet" strings over to the new `EthSpecId` enum.
* Always require a `CONFIG_NAME` field in `YamlConfig` (it used to have a default).

Since we penalize more blocks by range requests that have large steps, it is possible to get requests that will never be processed.

- Change from compressing the whole testnet directory, to only compressing the genesis state file. This is the only file we need to compress and *not* compressing the others makes them work nicely with git.
- We can modify the boot nodes, configs, etc. without incurring an eternal binary-blob cost on our git history.
- This change is backwards compatible (i.e., non-breaking).

## Issue Addressed
Further testing revealed another edge case where we attempt to unban a peer that can be in a disconnected start. Although this causes no real issue, it does log an error to the user.
This PR adds a check to prevent this edge case and prevents the error being logged to the user.
This PR prevents a user-facing error.
It prevents optimistically unbanning a peer and instead checks the state of the peer before requesting the peers state to be unbanned.
As @AgeManning mentioned the newest libp2p version had some problems and got downgraded again on lighthouse master. This is an intermediate version that makes no problems and only adds a small change of allowing only one topic per message.
## Description
This downgrades the recent libp2p upgrade.
There were issues with the RPC which prevented syncing of the chain and this upgrade needs to be further investigated.
## Overview
This updates lighthouse to discovery v5.1
Note: This makes lighthouse's discovery not compatible with any previous version. Lighthouse cannot discover peers or send/receive ENR's from any previous version. This is a breaking change.
This resolves#1605
## Description
This increases the logging of the underlying UPnP tasks to inform the user of UPnP error/success.
This also decreases the batch syncing size to two epochs per batch.
## Description
Updates to the latest libp2p and includes gossipsub updates.
Of particular note is the limitation of a single topic per gossipsub message.

## Issue Addressed
Closes#800Closes#1713
## Proposed Changes
Implement the temporary state storage algorithm described in #800. Specifically:
* Add `DBColumn::BeaconStateTemporary`, for storing 0-length temporary marker values.
* Store intermediate states immediately as they are created, marked temporary. Delete the temporary flag if the block is processed successfully.
* Add a garbage collection process to delete leftover temporary states on start-up.
* Bump the database schema version to 2 so that a DB with temporary states can't accidentally be used with older versions of the software. The auto-migration is a no-op, but puts in place some infra that we can use for future migrations (e.g. #1784)
## Additional Info
There are two known race conditions, one potentially causing permanent faults (hopefully rare), and the other insignificant.
### Race 1: Permanent state marked temporary
EDIT: this has been fixed by the addition of a lock around the relevant critical section
There are 2 threads that are trying to store 2 different blocks that share some intermediate states (e.g. they both skip some slots from the current head). Consider this sequence of events:
1. Thread 1 checks if state `s` already exists, and seeing that it doesn't, prepares an atomic commit of `(s, s_temporary_flag)`.
2. Thread 2 does the same, but also gets as far as committing the state txn, finishing the processing of its block, and _deleting_ the temporary flag.
3. Thread 1 is (finally) scheduled again, and marks `s` as temporary with its transaction.
4.
a) The process is killed, or thread 1's block fails verification and the temp flag is not deleted. This is a permanent failure! Any attempt to load state `s` will fail... hope it isn't on the main chain! Alternatively (4b) happens...
b) Thread 1 finishes, and re-deletes the temporary flag. In this case the failure is transient, state `s` will disappear temporarily, but will come back once thread 1 finishes running.
I _hope_ that steps 1-3 only happen very rarely, and 4a even more rarely. It's hard to know
This once again begs the question of why we're using LevelDB (#483), when it clearly doesn't care about atomicity! A ham-fisted fix would be to wrap the hot and cold DBs in locks, which would bring us closer to how other DBs handle read-write transactions. E.g. [LMDB only allows one R/W transaction at a time](https://docs.rs/lmdb/0.8.0/lmdb/struct.Environment.html#method.begin_rw_txn).
### Race 2: Temporary state returned from `get_state`
I don't think this race really matters, but in `load_hot_state`, if another thread stores a state between when we call `load_state_temporary_flag` and when we call `load_hot_state_summary`, then we could end up returning that state even though it's only a temporary state. I can't think of any case where this would be relevant, and I suspect if it did come up, it would be safe/recoverable (having data is safer than _not_ having data).
This could be fixed by using a LevelDB read snapshot, but that would require substantial changes to how we read all our values, so I don't think it's worth it right now.
## Issue Addressed
Potentially resolves#1647 and sync stalls.
## Proposed Changes
The handling of the state of banned peers was inadequate for the complex peerdb data structure. We store a limited number of disconnected and banned peers in the db. We were not tracking intermediate "disconnecting" states and the in some circumstances we were updating the peer state without informing the peerdb. This lead to a number of inconsistencies in the peer state.
Further, the peer manager could ban a peer changing a peer's state from being connected to banned. In this circumstance, if the peer then disconnected, we didn't inform the application layer, which lead to applications like sync not being informed of a peers disconnection. This could lead to sync stalling and having to require a lighthouse restart.
Improved handling for peer states and interactions with the peerdb is made in this PR.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Adds a `lighthouse/beacon/states/:state_id/ssz` endpoint to allow us to pull the genesis state from the API.
## Additional Info
NA
## Issue Addressed
Closes#1769Closes#1708
## Proposed Changes
Tweaks the op pool pruning so that the attestation pool is pruned against the wall-clock epoch instead of the finalized state's epoch. This should reduce the unbounded growth that we've seen during periods without finality.
Also fixes up the voluntary exit pruning as raised in #1708.
## Issue Addressed
- Resolves#1766
## Proposed Changes
- Use the `warp::filters::cors` filter instead of our work-around.
## Additional Info
It's not trivial to enable/disable `cors` using `warp`, since using `routes.with(cors)` changes the type of `routes`. This makes it difficult to apply/not apply cors at runtime. My solution has been to *always* use the `warp::filters::cors` wrapper but when cors should be disabled, just pass the HTTP server listen address as the only permissible origin.

#1614 and a couple of sync-stalling problems, the most important is a cyclic dependency between the sync manager and the peer manager
## 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.

## Proposed Changes
Adds a direction field to `PeerConnectionStatus` that can be accessed by calling `is_outgoing` which will return `true` iff the peer is connected and the first connection was an outgoing one.

## Proposed Changes
Adds a gossipsub topic filter that only allows subscribing and incoming subscriptions from valid ETH2 topics.
## Additional Info
Currently the preparation of the valid topic hashes uses only the current fork id but in the future it must also use all possible future fork ids for planned forks. This has to get added when hard coded forks get implemented.

- 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.

Directory restructure in accordance with #1487. Also has temporary migration code to move the old directories into new structure.
Also extracts all default directory names and utility functions into a `directory` crate to avoid repetitio.
~Since `validator_definition.yaml` stores absolute paths, users will have to manually change the keystore paths or delete the file to get the validators picked up by the vc.~. `validator_definition.yaml` is migrated as well from the default directories.

## Issue Addressed
- Resolves#1313
## Proposed Changes
Changes the way we start the validator client and beacon node to ensure that we cleanly drop the validator keystores (which therefore ensures we cleanup their lockfiles).
Previously we were holding the validator keystores in a tokio task that was being forcefully killed (i.e., without `Drop`). Now, we hold them in a task that can gracefully handle a shutdown.
Also, switches the `--strict-lockfiles` flag to `--delete-lockfiles`. This means two things:
1. We are now strict on lockfiles by default (before we weren't).
1. There's a simple way for people delete the lockfiles if they experience a crash.
## Additional Info
I've only given the option to ignore *and* delete lockfiles, not just ignore them. I can't see a strong need for ignore-only but could easily add it, if the need arises.
I've flagged this as `api-breaking` since users that have lockfiles lingering around will be required to supply `--delete-lockfiles` next time they run.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#1680
## Proposed Changes
This PR fixes a race condition in beacon node start-up whereby the pubkey cache could be created by the beacon chain builder before the `PersistedBeaconChain` was stored to disk. When the node restarted, it would find the persisted chain missing, and attempt to start from scratch, creating a new pubkey cache in the process. This call to `ValidatorPubkeyCache::new` would fail if the file already existed (which it did). I changed the behaviour so that pubkey cache initialization now doesn't care whether there's a file already in existence (it's only a cache after all). Instead it will truncate and recreate the file in the race scenario described.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
There are four new conditions introduced in v0.12.3:
1. _[REJECT]_ The attestation's epoch matches its target -- i.e. `attestation.data.target.epoch ==
compute_epoch_at_slot(attestation.data.slot)`
1. _[REJECT]_ The attestation's target block is an ancestor of the block named in the LMD vote -- i.e.
`get_ancestor(store, attestation.data.beacon_block_root, compute_start_slot_at_epoch(attestation.data.target.epoch)) == attestation.data.target.root`
1. _[REJECT]_ The committee index is within the expected range -- i.e. `data.index < get_committee_count_per_slot(state, data.target.epoch)`.
1. _[REJECT]_ The number of aggregation bits matches the committee size -- i.e.
`len(attestation.aggregation_bits) == len(get_beacon_committee(state, data.slot, data.index))`.
This PR implements new logic to suit (1) and (2). Tests are added for (3) and (4), although they were already implicitly enforced.

## Issue Addressed
#629
## Proposed Changes
This removes banned peers from the DHT and informs discovery to block the node_id and the known source IP's associated with this node. It has the capabilities of un banning this peer after a period of time.
This also corrects the logic about banning specific IP addresses. We now use seen_ip addresses from libp2p rather than those sent to us via identify (which also include local addresses).
## Issue Addressed
In principle.. closes#1551 but in general are improvements for performance, maintainability and readability. The logic for the optimistic sync in actually simple
## Proposed Changes
There are miscellaneous things here:
- Remove unnecessary `BatchProcessResult::Partial` to simplify the batch validation logic
- Make batches a state machine. This is done to ensure batch state transitions respect our logic (this was previously done by moving batches between `Vec`s) and to ease the cognitive load of the `SyncingChain` struct
- Move most batch-related logic to the batch
- Remove `PendingBatches` in favor of a map of peers to their batches. This is to avoid duplicating peers inside the chain (peer_pool and pending_batches)
- Add `must_use` decoration to the `ProcessingResult` so that chains that request to be removed are handled accordingly. This also means that chains are now removed in more places than before to account for unhandled cases
- Store batches in a sorted map (`BTreeMap`) access is not O(1) but since the number of _active_ batches is bounded this should be fast, and saves performing hashing ops. Batches are indexed by the epoch they start. Sorted, to easily handle chain advancements (range logic)
- Produce the chain Id from the identifying fields: target root and target slot. This, to guarantee there can't be duplicated chains and be able to consistently search chains by either Id or checkpoint
- Fix chain_id not being present in all chain loggers
- Handle mega-edge case where the processor's work queue is full and the batch can't be sent. In this case the chain would lose the blocks, remain in a "syncing" state and waiting for a result that won't arrive, effectively stalling sync.
- When a batch imports blocks or the chain starts syncing with a local finalized epoch greater that the chain's start epoch, the chain is advanced instead of reset. This is to avoid losing download progress and validate batches faster. This also means that the old `start_epoch` now means "current first unvalidated batch", so it represents more accurately the progress of the chain.
- Batch status peers from the same chain to reduce Arc access.
- Handle a couple of cases where the retry counters for a batch were not updated/checked are now handled via the batch state machine. Basically now if we forget to do it, we will know.
- Do not send back the blocks from the processor to the batch. Instead register the attempt before sending the blocks (does not count as failed)
- When re-requesting a batch, try to avoid not only the last failed peer, but all previous failed peers.
- Optimize requesting batches ahead in the buffer by shuffling idle peers just once (this is just addressing a couple of old TODOs in the code)
- In chain_collection, store chains by their id in a map
- Include a mapping from request_ids to (chain, batch) that requested the batch to avoid the double O(n) search on block responses
- Other stuff:
- impl `slog::KV` for batches
- impl `slog::KV` for syncing chains
- PSA: when logging, we can use `%thing` if `thing` implements `Display`. Same for `?` and `Debug`
### Optimistic syncing:
Try first the batch that contains the current head, if the batch imports any block, advance the chain. If not, if this optimistic batch is inside the current processing window leave it there for future use, if not drop it. The tolerance for this block is the same for downloading, but just once for processing

## Issue Addressed
- Resolves#1080
## Proposed Changes
- Call `update_pubkey_cache` only in the `build_all_caches` method and `get_validator_index` method.
## Additional Info
This does reduce the number of places the cache is updated, making it simpler. But the `get_validator_index` method is used a couple times when we are iterating through the entire validator registry (or set of active validators). Before, we would only call `update_pubkey_cache` once before iterating through all validators. So I'm not _totally_ sure this change is worth it.
## 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.

## 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.

Malicious users could request very large block ranges, more than we expect. Although technically legal, we are now quadraticaly weighting large step sizes in the filter.

## Issue Addressed
Partly addresses #1547
## Proposed Changes
This fix addresses the missing attestations at slot 0 of an epoch (also sometimes slot 1 when slot 0 was skipped).
There are 2 cases:
1. BN receives the block for the attestation slot after 4 seconds (1/3rd of the slot).
2. No block is proposed for this slot.
In both cases, when we produce the attestation, we pass the head state to the
`produce_unaggregated_attestation_for_block` function here
9833eca024/beacon_node/beacon_chain/src/beacon_chain.rs (L845-L850)
Since we don't advance the state in this function, we set `attestation.data.source = state.current_justified_checkpoint` which is atleast 2 epochs lower than current_epoch(wall clock epoch).
This attestation is invalid and cannot be included in a block because of this assert from the spec:
```python
if data.target.epoch == get_current_epoch(state):
assert data.source == state.current_justified_checkpoint
state.current_epoch_attestations.append(pending_attestation)
```
https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/dev/specs/phase0/beacon-chain.md#attestations
This PR changes the `produce_unaggregated_attestation_for_block` function to ensure that it advances the state before producing the attestation at the new epoch.
Running this on my node, have missed 0 attestations across all 8 of my validators in a 100 epoch period 🎉
To compare, I was missing ~14 attestations across all 8 validators in the same 100 epoch period before the fix.
Will report missed attestations if any after running for another 100 epochs tomorrow.

Co-authored-by: Age Manning <Age@AgeManning.com>
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):
* 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.

## Issue Addressed
Closes#1488
## Proposed Changes
* Prevent the pruning algorithm from over-eagerly deleting states at skipped slots when they are shared with the canonical chain.
* Add `debug` logging to the pruning algorithm so we have so better chance of debugging future issues from logs.
* Modify the handling of the "finalized state" in the beacon chain, so that it's always the state at the first slot of the finalized epoch (previously it was the state at the finalized block). This gives database pruning a clearer and cleaner view of things, and will marginally impact the pruning of the op pool, observed proposers, etc (in ways that are safe as far as I can tell).
* Remove duplicated `RevertedFinalizedEpoch` check from `after_finalization`
* Delete useless and unused `max_finality_distance`
* Add tests that exercise pruning with shared states at skip slots
* Delete unnecessary `block_strategy` argument from `add_blocks` and friends in the test harness (will likely conflict with #1380 slightly, sorry @adaszko -- but we can fix that)
* Bonus: add a `BeaconChain::with_head` method. I didn't end up needing it, but it turned out quite nice, so I figured we could keep it?

## Additional Info
This PR covers the `rest_api` which will soon be refactored to suit the standard API. As such, I've cut a few corners and left some existing issues open in this patch. What I have done here should leave the API in state that is not necessary *exactly* the same, but good enough for us to run validators with. Specifically, the number of blocking workers that can be spawned is unbounded and I have not implemented a queue; this will need to be fixed when we implement the standard API.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Boot node reuses code from beacon_node to initialize network config. This also enables using the network directory to store/load the enr and the private key.
## Additional Info
Note that before this PR the port cli arguments were off (the argument was named `enr-port` but used as `boot-node-enr-port`).
Therefore as port always the cli port argument was used (for both enr and listening). Now the enr-port argument can be used to overwrite the listening port as the public port others should connect to.
Last but not least note, that this restructuring reuses `ethlibp2p::NetworkConfig` that has many more options than the ones used in the boot node. For example the network config has an own `discv5_config` field that gets never used in the boot node and instead another `Discv5Config` gets created later in the boot node process.

## Description
There can be many head chains queued up to complete. Currently we try and process all of these to completion before we consider the node synced.
In a chaotic network, there can be many of these and processing them to completion can be very expensive and slow. This PR removes any non-syncing head chains from the queue, and re-status's the peers. If, after we have synced to head on one chain, there is still a valid head chain to download, it will be re-established once the status has been returned.
This should assist with getting nodes to sync on medalla faster.
## Overview
There are forked chains which get referenced by blocks and attestations on a network. Typically if these chains are very long, we stop looking up the chain and downvote the peer. In extreme circumstances, many peers are on many chains, the chains can be very deep and become time consuming performing lookups.
This PR adds a cache to known failed chain lookups. This prevents us from starting a parent-lookup (or stopping one half way through) if we have attempted the chain lookup in the past.
## Description
Currently lighthouse load-balances across peers a single finalized chain. The chain is selected via the most peers. Once synced to the latest finalized epoch Lighthouse creates chains amongst its peers and syncs them all in parallel amongst each peer (grouped by their current head block).
This is typically fast and relatively efficient under normal operations. However if the chain has not finalized in a long time, the head chains can grow quite long. Peer's head chains will update every slot as new blocks are added to the head. Syncing all head chains in parallel is a bottleneck and highly inefficient in block duplication leads to RPC timeouts when attempting to handle all new heads chains at once.
This PR limits the parallelism of head syncing chains to 2. We now sync at most two head chains at a time. This allows for the possiblity of sync progressing alongside a peer being slow and holding up one chain via RPC timeouts.
The changes are somewhat simple but should solve two issues:
- When quickly changing between chains once and a second time back again, batchIds would collide and cause havoc.
- If we got an out of range response from a peer, sync would remain in syncing but without advancing
Changes:
- remove the batch id. Identify each batch (inside a chain) by its starting epoch. Target epochs for downloading and processing now advance by EPOCHS_PER_BATCH
- for the same reason, move the "to_be_downloaded_id" to be an epoch
- remove a sneaky line that dropped an out of range batch without downloading it
- bonus: put the chain_id in the log given to the chain. This is why explicitly logging the chain_id is removed
## Proposed Changes
To mitigate the impact of minority forks on RAM and disk usage, this change rejects blocks whose parent lies more than 320 slots (10 epochs, ~1 hour) in the past. The behaviour is configurable via `lighthouse bn --max-skip-slots N`, and can be turned off entirely using `--max-skip-slots none`.

- 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.

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.

- There are no tests in CI for this yet for a few reasons:
- I'm hesitant to add more long-running tasks.
- Short-term bitrot should be avoided since we'll use it each release.
- In the long term I think it would be good to automate binary creation on a release.
- I observed the binaries increase in size from 50mb to 52mb after these changes.
limit simultaneous outgoing connections attempts to a reasonable top as an extra layer of protection
also shift the keep alive logic of the rpc handler to avoid needing to update it by hand. I think In rare cases this could make shutting down a connection a bit faster.

For now a critical is raised and I leave #1494 for more sophisticated handling of this.
This also updates discv5 to handle errors of binding to a UDP socket such that lighthouse is now able to handle them.
## Issue Addressed
Some nodes not following head, high CPU usage and HTTP API delays
## Proposed Changes
Patches gossipsub. Gossipsub was using an `lru_time_cache` to check for duplicates. This contained an `O(N)` lookup for every gossipsub message to update the time cache. This was causing high cpu usage and blocking network threads.
This PR introduces a custom cache without `O(N)` inserts.
This also adds built in safety mechanisms to prevent gossipsub from excessively retrying connections upon failure. A maximum limit is set after which we disconnect from the node from too many failed substream connections.
## Issue Addressed
Peers that connected after the peer limit may remain connected in some circumstances.
This ensures peers not in the peer manager's list get disconnected. Further logging is also added to track this behaviour.
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
- When producing a block, go and ensure every attestation in the naive aggregation pool is included in the operation pool. This should help us increase the number of useful attestations in a block.
- Lift the `RwLock`s inside `NaiveAggregationPool` up into a single high-level lock. There were race conditions in the existing setup and it was hard to reason about.

#1028
A bit late, but I think if `BlockError` had a kind (the current `BlockError` minus everything on the variants that comes directly from the block) and the original block, more clones could be removed
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
- Moves the git-based versioning we were doing into the `lighthouse_version` crate in `common`.
- Removes the `beacon_node/version` crate, replacing it with `lighthouse_version`.
- Bumps the version to `v0.2.0`.
## Additional Info
There are now two types of version string:
1. `const VERSION: &str = Lighthouse/v0.2.0-1419501f2+`
1. `version_with_platform() = Lighthouse/v0.2.0-1419501f2+/x86_64-linux`
(1) is handy cause it's a `const` and shorter. (2) has platform info so it's more useful. Note that the plus-sign (`+`) indicates the the git commit is dirty (it used to be `(modified)` but I had to shorten it to fit into graffiti).
These version strings are now included on:
- `lighthouse --version`
- `lcli --version`
- `curl localhost:5052/node/version`
- p2p messages when we communicate our version
You can update the version by changing this constant (version is not related to a `Cargo.toml`):
b9ad7102d5/common/lighthouse_version/src/lib.rs (L4-L15)
## Issue Addressed
Sync was breaking occasionally. The root cause appears to be identify crashing as events we being sent to the protocol after nodes were banned. Have not been able to reproduce sync issues since this update.
## Proposed Changes
Only send messages to sub-behaviour protocols if the peer manager thinks the peer is connected. All other messages are dropped.
## Issue Addressed
The most recent gossipsub update had an issue where some privacy settings lead to not sending a sequence number with the message. Although Lighthouse treats these as valid (based on current configuration) other clients may not.
This corrects gossipsub to send sequence numbers where expected and based on the configuration settings.
## Issue Addressed
#1056
## Proposed Changes
- Add a rate limiter to the RPC behaviour. This also means the rate limiting occurs just before the door to the application level, so the number of connections a peer opens does not affect this (this would happen in the future if put on the handler)
- The algorithm used is the leaky bucket as a meter / token bucket implemented the GCRA way
- Each protocol has its own limit. Due to the way the algorithm works, the "small" protocols have a hard limit, while bbrange and bbroot allow [burstiness](https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Burstiness). This is so that a peer can't request hundreds of individual requests expecting only one block in a short period of time, it also allows a peer to send two half size requests instead of one with max if they want to without getting limited, and.. it also allows a peer to request a batch of the maximum size and then send _appropriately spaced_ requests of really small sizes. From what I've seen in sync this is plausible when reaching the target slot.

## Issue Addressed
Recurring sync loop and invalid batch downloading
## Proposed Changes
Shifts the batches to include the first slot of each epoch. This ensures the finalized is always downloaded once a chain has completed syncing.
Also add in logic to prevent re-dialing disconnected peers. Non-performant peers get disconnected during sync, this prevents re-connection to these during sync.

## Proposed Changes
This provides a number of corrections and improvements to gossipsub. Specifically
- Enables options for greater privacy around the message author
- Provides greater flexibility on message validation
- Prevents unvalidated messages from being gossiped
- Shifts the duplicate cache to a time-based cache inside gossipsub
- Updates the message-id to handle bytes
- Bug fixes related to mesh maintenance and topic subscription. This should improve our attestation inclusion rate.
## Issue Addressed
#1388 partially (eth2_libp2p & network)
## Proposed Changes
TLDR at the end
- *Complex types* are 3 on the handlers/Behaviours but the types are `Poll<ComplexType>` where `ComplexType` comes from the traits of libp2p. Those, I don't thing are worth an alias. A couple more were from using tokio combinators and were removed writing things the async way and using [`BoxFuture`](https://docs.rs/futures/0.3.5/futures/future/type.BoxFuture.html)
- The *cognitive complexity*.. I tried to address those before (they come from the poll functions too) and tbh they are cognitively simpler to understand the way they are now. Moving separate parts to functions doesn't add much since that code is not repeated and they all do early returns. If moved those returns would now need to be wrapped in an Option, probably, and checked to be returned again. I would leave them like that but that's just preference.
- *Too many arguments*: They are not easily put together in a wrapping struct since the parameters don't relate semantically (Ex: fn new with a log, a reference to the chain, a peer, etc) but some may differ.
- *Needless returns* were indeed needless
## Additional Info
TLDR: removed needless return, used BoxFuture and async, left the rest untouched since those lgtm
## Issue Addressed

## Proposed Changes
Adds a `valid_deposits` field to the logs whilst waiting for genesis:
```
Jul 25 11:02:25.631 INFO Waiting for more deposits valid_deposits: 3085, total_deposits: 3188, min_genesis_active_validators: 16384, service: beacon
```
In this example we can see there are `3188` deposits, but only `3085` have valid signatures.

## Proposed Changes
- Refactor the `bls` crate to support multiple BLS "backends" (e.g., milagro, blst, etc).
- Removes some duplicate, unused code in `common/rest_types/src/validator.rs`.
- Removes the old "upgrade legacy keypairs" functionality (these were unencrypted keys that haven't been supported for a few testnets, no one should be using them anymore).
## Additional Info
Most of the files changed are just inconsequential changes to function names.
## TODO
- [x] Optimization levels
- [x] Infinity point: https://github.com/supranational/blst/issues/11
- [x] Ensure milagro *and* blst are tested via CI
- [x] What to do with unsafe code?
- [x] Test infinity point in signature sets
## Issue Addressed
#1112
The logic is slightly different but still valid wrt to error handling.
- Inbound state is either Busy with a future that return the subtream (and info about the processing)
- The state machine works as follows:
- `Idle` with pending responses => `Busy`
- `Busy` => finished ? if so and there are new pending responses then `Busy`, if not then `Idle`
=> not finished remains `Busy`
- Add an `InboundInfo` for readability
- Other stuff:
- Close inbound substreams when all expected responses are sent
- Remove the error variants from `RPCCodedResponse` and use the codes instead
- Fix various spelling mistakes because I got sloppy last time
Sorry for the delay

## Proposed Changes
When parsing deposit logs, we were returning an error in case `PublicKeyBytes` or `SignatureBytes` didn't convert to valid bls `PublicKey` or `Signature` types. This would stall our import of deposit logs.
Fixes this by returning `signature_is_valid` as `false` in `DepositLog` if the bytes are invalid `PublicKey/Signature` types.
Tested this fix on the Onyx deposit contract where the bug was observed and it works correctly as expected.
## Issue Addressed
This PR makes the `Eth1Chain::use_dummy_backend` field private. I believe this could be good to ensure the consistency of a Eth1Chain instance. 💡
## Issue Addressed
https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/1177
## Proposed Changes
Add a command line option (`--http-allow-origin`) and a config item for configuring the `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` response header. This should unblock making XMLHttpRequests.
Downgrades libp2p and the gossipsub updates.
This looks to resolve the CPU usage issue we have been seeing.
The root cause is likely inside the latest gossipsub updates, which will be addressed in a later PR
## Issue Addressed
Closes#1319
## Proposed Changes
This issue:
1. Allows users to edit their Graffiti via the cli option `--graffiti`. If the graffiti is too long, lighthouse will not start and throw an error message. Otherwise, it will set the Graffiti to be the one provided by the user, right-padded with 0s.
2. Create a new `Graffiti` type and unify the code around it. With this type, everything is enforced at compile-time, and the code can be (I think...) panic-free! :)
## Additional info
Currently, only `&str` are supported, as this is the returned type by `.arg("graffiti")`.
Since this is user-input, I tried being as careful as I could. This is also why I created the `Graffiti` type, to make sure I could check as much as possible at compile time.
