80e52a0263 Subscribe to core topics after sync (#1613)
## Issue Addressed

N/A

## Proposed Changes

Prevent subscribing to core gossipsub topics until after we have achieved a full sync. This prevents us censoring gossipsub channels, getting penalised in gossipsub 1.1 scoring and saves us computation time in attempting to validate gossipsub messages which we will be unable to do with a non-sync'd chain.

b75df29501 minimize the number of places we are calling update_pubkey_cache (#1626)
## 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.

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

- Resolves #1616

## Proposed Changes

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

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

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

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

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

## Additional Info

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

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

- Resolves #1616

## Proposed Changes

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

## Detail

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

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

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

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

The bug manifested itself like this:

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

## Additional Info

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

2074beccdc Gossipsub message id to shortened bytes (#1607)

## Proposed Changes

Shifts the gossipsub message id to use the first 8 bytes of the SHA256 hash of the gossipsub message data field.

## Additional Info

We should merge this in once the spec has been decided on. It will cause issues with gossipsub scoring and gossipsub propagation rates (as we won't receive IWANT) messages from clients that also haven't made this update.

c6abc56113 Prevent large step-size parameters (#1583)
## Issue Addressed

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. Therefore users may request large skips, but not a large number of blocks, to prevent requests forcing us to do long chain lookups. 

## Proposed Changes

Weight the step parameter in the RPC filter and prevent any overflows that effect us in the step parameter.

00cdc4bb35 Update state before producing attestation (#1596)
## 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.

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

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

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

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

4763f03dcc Fix bug in database pruning (#1564)
## 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

Any users who have experienced pruning errors on Medalla will need to resync after upgrading to a release including this change. This should end unbounded `chain_db` growth! 🎉

c895dc8971 Shift HTTP server heavy-lifting to blocking executor (#1518)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Shift practically all HTTP endpoint handlers to the blocking executor (some very light tasks are left on the core executor).

## 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.

2bc9115a94 reuse beacon_node methods for initializing network configs in boot_node (#1520)
## Issue Addressed

#1378

## 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.

## Proposed Changes

Refactor attestation service to send out requests to find peers for subnets as soon as we get attestation duties. 
Earlier, we had much more involved logic to send the discovery requests to the discovery service only 6 slots before the attestation slot. Now that discovery is much smarter with grouped queries, the complexity in attestation service can be reduced considerably.

8311074d68 Purge out-dated head chains on chain completion (#1538)
## 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.

3bb30754d9 Keep track of failed head chains and prevent re-lookups (#1534)
## 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.

cc44a64d15 Limit parallelism of head chain sync (#1527)
## 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.

46dbf027af Do not reset batch ids & redownload out of range batches (#1528)
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

719a69aee0 Ignore blocks that skip a large distance from their parent (#1530)
## 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`.

61d5b592cb Memory usage reduction (#1522)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

- Adds a new function to allow getting a state with a bad state root history for attestation verification. This reduces unnecessary tree hashing during attestation processing, which accounted for 23% of memory allocations (by bytes) in a recent `heaptrack` observation.
- Don't clone caches on intermediate epoch-boundary states during block processing.
- Reject blocks that are known to fork choice earlier during gossip processing, instead of waiting until after state has been loaded (this only happens in edge-case).
- Avoid multiple re-allocations by creating a "forced" exact size iterator.

850a2d5985 Persist metadata and enr across restarts (#1513)
## Issue Addressed

Resolves #1489 

## Proposed Changes

- Change starting metadata seq num to 0 according to the [spec](https://github.com/ethereum/eth2.0-specs/blob/dev/specs/phase0/p2p-interface.md#metadata).
- Remove metadata field from `NetworkGlobals`
- Persist metadata to disk on every update
- Load metadata seq number from disk on restart
- Persist enr to disk on update to ensure enr sequence number increments are persisted as well.

## Additional info

Since we modified starting metadata seq num to 0 from 1, we might still see `Invalid Sequence number provided` like in #1489  from prysm nodes if they have our metadata cached.

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

- Resolves #1451

## Proposed Changes

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

## Additional Notes

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

b0a3731fff Introduce a queue for attestations from the network (#1511)

## Proposed Changes

Introduces the `GossipProcessor`, a multi-threaded (multi-tasked?), non-blocking processor for some messages from the network which require verification and import into the `BeaconChain`.

b063df5bf9 Cross-compile to vendored x86_84, aarch64 (Raspberry Pi 4) (#1497)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Adds support for using the [`cross`](https://github.com/rust-embedded/cross) project to produce cross-compiled binaries using Docker images.

Provides quite clean and simple cross-compiles cause all the complexity is hidden in Dockerfiles. It does require you to be in the `docker` group though.

## Details

- Adds shortcut commands to `Makefile`
- Ensures `reqwest` and `discv5` use vendored openssl libs (i.e., static not shared).
- Switches to a [commit](284f705964) of blst that has a renamed C function to avoid a collision with openssl (upstream issue: https://github.com/supranational/blst/issues/21).
- Updates `ring` to the latest satisfiable version, since an earlier version was causing issues with `cross`.
- Off-topic, but adds extra message about Windows support as suggested by Discord user.

## Additional Info

- ~~Blocked on #1495~~
- 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.

cbfae87aa6 Upgrade logs (#1495)
## Issue Addressed

#1483 

## Proposed Changes

Upgrades the log to a critical if a listener fails. We are able to listen on many interfaces so a single instance is not critical. We should however gracefully shutdown the client if we have no listeners, although the client can still function solely on outgoing connections.

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.

04e4389efe Patch gossipsub (#1490)
## 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.

f26adc0a36 Lighthouse v0.2.0 (Medalla) (#1452)
## 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`):

4d77784bb8 Rate limit RPC requests (#1402)
## 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.

9ae9df806c Fix clippy lints rpc (#1401)
## 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
