## Issue Addressed
While reviewing #4801 I noticed that our use of `take_while` in the block replayer means that if a state root iterator _with gaps_ is provided, some additonal state roots will be dropped unnecessarily. In practice the impact is small, because once there's _one_ state root miss, the whole tree hash cache needs to be built anyway, and subsequent misses are less costly. However this was still a little inefficient, so I figured it's better to fix it.
## Proposed Changes
Use [`peeking_take_while`](https://docs.rs/itertools/latest/itertools/trait.Itertools.html#method.peeking_take_while) to avoid consuming the next element when checking whether it satisfies the slot predicate.
## Additional Info
There's a gist here that shows the basic dynamics in isolation: https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2021&gist=40b623cc0febf9ed51705d476ab140c5. Changing the `peeking_take_while` to a `take_while` causes the assert to fail. Similarly I've added a new test `block_replayer_peeking_state_roots` which fails if the same change is applied inside `get_state_root`.
## Issue Addressed
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/4712
## Proposed Changes
Exit aggregation step early if no validator is aggregator. This avoids an unnecessary request to the beacon node and more importantly fixes noisy errors if Lighthouse VC is used with other clients such as Lodestar and Prysm.

## Proposed Changes

## Additional Info

## Issue Addressed
We've had a report of sync committee performance suffering with the beacon processor HTTP API prioritisations.
## Proposed Changes
Increase the priority of `/eth/v1/beacon/blocks/head/root` requests, which are used by the validator client to form sync committee messages, here:
441fc1691b/validator_client/src/sync_committee_service.rs (L181-L188)
Additionally, avoid loading the blinded block in all but the `block_id=block_root` case. I'm not sure why we were doing this previously, I suspect it was just an oversight during the implementation of the `finalized` status on API requests.
## Additional Info
I think this change should have minimal negative impact as:
- The block root endpoint is quick to compute (a few ms max).
- Only the priority of `head` requests is increased. Analytical processes that are making lots of block root requests for past slots are unable to DoS the beacon processor, as their requests will still be processed after attestations.

## Proposed Changes
We were currently downscoring a peer for sending us a block that we already have in fork choice. This is unnecessary as we get duplicates in lighthouse only when
1. We published the block, so the block is already in fork choice
2. We imported the same block over rpc
In both scenarios, the peer who sent us the block over gossip is not at fault.
This isn't exploitable as valid duplicates will get dropped by the gossipsub duplicate filter
## Issue Addressed
Right now lighthouse accepts zero as enr ports. Since enr ports should be reachable, zero ports should be rejected here
## Proposed Changes
- update the config to use `NonZerou16` as an ENR port for all enr-related fields.
- the enr builder from config now sets the enr to the listening port only if the enr port is not already set (prev behaviour) and the listening port is not zero (new behaviour)
- reject zero listening ports when used with `enr-match`.
- boot node now rejects listening port as zero, since those are advertised.
- generate-bootnode-enr also rejected zero listening ports for the same reason.
- update local network scripts
## Additional Info
Unrelated, but why do we overwrite `enr-x-port` values with listening ports if `enr-match` is present? we prob should only do this for enr values that are not already set.
## Issue Addressed
https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/4543
## Proposed Changes
- Removes `NotBanned` from `BanResult`, implements `Display` and `std::error::Error` for `BanResult` and changes `ban_result` return type to `Option<BanResult>` which helps returning `BanResult` on `handle_established_inbound_connection`
- moves the check from for banned peers from `on_connection_established` to `handle_established_inbound_connection` to start addressing #4543.
- Removes `allow_block_list` as it's now redundant? Not sure about this one but if `PeerManager` keeps track of the banned peers, no need to send a `Swarm` event for `alow_block_list` to also keep that list right?
## Questions
- #4543 refers:
> More specifically, implement the connection limit behaviour inside the peer manager.
@AgeManning do you mean copying `libp2p::connection_limits::Behaviour`'s code into `PeerManager`/ having it as an inner `NetworkBehaviour` of `PeerManager`/other? If it's the first two, I think it probably makes more sense to have it as it is as it's less code to maintain.
> Also implement the banning of peers inside the behaviour, rather than passing messages back up to the swarm.
I tried to achieve this, but we still need to pass the `PeerManagerEvent::Banned` swarm event as `DiscV5` handles it's node and ip management internally and I did not find a method to query if a peer is banned. Is there anything else we can do from here?
3397612160/beacon_node/lighthouse_network/src/discovery/mod.rs (L931-L940)
Same as the question above, I did not find a way to check if `DiscV5` has the peer banned, so that we could check here and avoid sending `Swarm` events
3397612160/beacon_node/lighthouse_network/src/peer_manager/network_behaviour.rs (L168-L178)
Is there a chance we try to dial a peer that has been banned previously?
Thanks!
## Proposed Changes
- only use LH types to avoid build issues
- use warp instead of axum for the server to avoid importing the dep
## Additional Info
- wondering if we can move the `execution_layer/test_utils` to its own crate and import it as a dev dependency
- this would be made easier by separating out our engine API types into their own crate so we can use them in the test crate
- or maybe we can look into using reth types for the engine api if they are in their own crate

Attempting to improve our CI speeds as its recently been a pain point.
Major changes:
- Use a github action to pull stable/nightly rust rather than building it each run
- Shift test suite to `nexttest` https://github.com/nextest-rs/nextest for CI
UPDATE:
So I've iterated on some changes, and although I think its still not optimal I think this is a good base to start from. Some extra things in this PR:
- Shifted where we pull rust from. We're now using this thing: https://github.com/moonrepo/setup-rust . It's got some interesting cache's built in, but was not seeing the gains that Jimmy managed to get. In either case tho, it can pull rust, cargofmt, clippy, cargo nexttest all in < 5s. So I think it's worthwhile.
- I've grouped a few of the check-like tests into a single test called `code-test`. Although we were using github runners in parallel which may be faster, it just seems wasteful. There were like 4-5 tests, where we would pull lighthouse, compile it, then run an action, like clippy, cargo-audit or fmt. I've grouped these into a single action, so we only compile lighthouse once, then in each step we run the checks. This avoids compiling lighthouse like 5 times.
- Ive made doppelganger tests run on our local machines to avoid pulling foundry, building and making lcli which are all now baked into the images.
- We have sccache and do not incremental compile lighthouse
Misc bonus things:
- Cargo update
- Fix web3 signer openssl keys which is required after a cargo update
- Use mock_instant in an LRU cache test to avoid non-deterministic test
- Remove race condition in building web3signer tests
There's still some things we could improve on. Such as downloading the EF tests every run and the web3-signer binary, but I've left these to be out of scope of this PR. I think the above are meaningful improvements.

Synchronize dependencies and edition on the workspace `Cargo.toml`
## Proposed Changes
with https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8415 merged it's now possible to synchronize details on the workspace `Cargo.toml` like the metadata and dependencies.
By only having dependencies that are shared between multiple crates aligned on the workspace `Cargo.toml` it's easier to not miss duplicate versions of the same dependency and therefore ease on the compile times.
## Additional Info
this PR also removes the no longer required direct dependency of the `serde_derive` crate.

Fix local testnet to generate keys in the correct folders when `BN_COUNT` and `VC_COUNT` don't match.
The current script place the generated validator keys in validator folders based on the `BN_COUNT` config, e.g. `node_1/validators`, `node_2/validators`..etc. We should be using `VC_COUNT` here instead, otherwise the number of validator clients may not match the number of directories generated, and would result in either:
1. a VC not having any keys (when `BN_COUNT` < `VC_COUNT`)
2. a validator key directory not being used (when `BN_COUNT` > `VC_COUNT`).
There is an issue with the file `scripts/local_testnet/start_local_testnet.sh` - when we use a non-default `$SPEC-PRESET` in `vars.env` it runs into an error:
```
executing: ./setup.sh >> /home/ck/.lighthouse/local-testnet/testnet/setup.log
parse error: Invalid numeric literal at line 1, column 7
```
@jimmygchen found the issue and the updated script includes the flag `--spec $SPEC-PRESET`
## Proposed Changes
This PR adds more logging prior to genesis, particularly on networks that start with execution enabled.
There are new checks using `eth_getBlockByHash/Number` to verify that the genesis state's `latest_execution_payload_header` matches the execution node's genesis block.
The first commit also runs the merge-readiness/Capella-readiness checks prior to genesis. This has two effects:
- Give more information on the execution node's status and its readiness for genesis.
- Prevent the `el_offline` status from being set on `/eth/v1/node/syncing`, which previously caused the VC to complain loudly.
I would like to include this for the Holesky reboot. It would have caught the misconfig that doomed the first Holesky.
## Additional Info
- Geth doesn't serve payload bodies prior to genesis, which is why we use the legacy methods. I haven't checked with other ELs yet.
- Currently this is logging errors with _Capella_ genesis states generated by `ethereum-genesis-generator` because the `withdrawals_root` is not set correctly (it is 0x0). This is not a blocker for Holesky, as it starts from Bellatrix (Pari is investigating).
## Issue Addressed
I went through the code base and look for places where we acquire fork choice locks (after the deadlock bug was found and fixed in #4687), and discovered an instance where we re-acquire a lock immediately after dropping it. This shouldn't cause deadlock like the other issue, but is slightly less efficient.
## Issue Addressed
CI is plagued by `AddrAlreadyInUse` failures, which are caused by race conditions in allocating free ports.
This PR removes all usages of the `unused_port` crate for Lighthouse's HTTP API, in favour of passing `:0` as the listen address. As a result, the listen address isn't known ahead of time and must be read from the listening socket after it binds. This requires tying some self-referential knots, which is a little disruptive, but hopefully doesn't clash too much with Deneb 🤞
There are still a few usages of `unused_tcp4_port` left in cases where we start external processes, like the `watch` Postgres DB, Anvil, Geth, Nethermind, etc. Removing these usages is non-trivial because it's hard to read the port back from an external process after starting it with `--port 0`. We might be able to do something on Linux where we read from `/proc/`, but I'll leave that for future work.
## Issue Addressed
On a new network a user might require importing validators before waiting until genesis has occurred.
## Proposed Changes
Starts the validator client http api before waiting for genesis

Web3Signer now requires Java runtime v17, see [v23.8.0 release](https://github.com/Consensys/web3signer/releases/tag/23.8.0).

## Issue Addressed
#4402
## Proposed Changes
This PR adds QUIC support to Lighthouse. As this is not officially spec'd this will only work between lighthouse <-> lighthouse connections. We attempt a QUIC connection (if the node advertises it) and if it fails we fallback to TCP.
This should be a backwards compatible modification. We want to test this functionality on live networks to observe any improvements in bandwidth/latency.
NOTE: This also removes the websockets transport as I believe no one is really using it. It should be mentioned in our release however.

Additionally, the page mentions using sockets that [both listen to IPv6](14924dbc95/book/src/advanced_networking.md (L151)) in a dual-stack setup? Hence, this PR also changes said line to "using one socket for IPv4 and another socket for IPv6".

## Issue Addressed
Fix a bug in the storage of the linear block roots array in the freezer DB. Previously this array was always written as part of state storage (or block backfill). With state pruning enabled by #4610, these states were no longer being written and as a result neither were the block roots.
The impact is quite low, we would just log an error when trying to forwards-iterate the block roots, which for validating nodes only happens when they try to look up blocks for peers:
> Aug 25 03:42:36.980 ERRO Missing chunk in forwards iterator chunk index: 49726, service: freezer_db
Any node checkpoint synced off `unstable` is affected and has a corrupt database. If you see the log above, you need to re-sync with the fix. Nodes that haven't checkpoint synced recently should _not_ be corrupted, even if they ran the buggy version.
## Proposed Changes
- Use a `ChunkWriter` to write the block roots when states are not being stored.
- Tweak the usage of `get_latest_restore_point` so that it doesn't return a nonsense value when state pruning is enabled.
- Tweak the guarantee on the block roots array so that block roots are assumed available up to the split slot (exclusive). This is a bit nicer than relying on anything to do with the latest restore point, which is a nonsensical concept when there aren't any restore points.
## Additional Info
I'm looking forward to deleting the chunked vector code for good when we merge tree-states 😁
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
Add the Holesky network config as per 36e4ff2d51/custom_config_data.
Since the genesis state is ~190MB, I've opted to *not* include it in the binary and instead download it at runtime (see #4564 for context). To download this file we have:
- A hard-coded URL for a SigP-hosted S3 bucket with the Holesky genesis state. Assuming this download works correctly, users will be none the wiser that the state wasn't included in the binary (apart from some additional logs)
- If the user provides a `--checkpoint-sync-url` flag, then LH will download the genesis state from that server rather than our S3 bucket.
- If the user provides a `--genesis-state-url` flag, then LH will download the genesis state from that server regardless of the S3 bucket or `--checkpoint-sync-url` flag.
- Whenever a genesis state is downloaded it is checked against a checksum baked into the binary.
- A genesis state will never be downloaded if it's already included in the binary.
- There is a `--genesis-state-url-timeout` flag to tweak the timeout for downloading the genesis state file.
## Log Output

## Additional Info
I tested the `--genesis-state-url` flag with all 9 Goerli checkpoint sync servers on https://eth-clients.github.io/checkpoint-sync-endpoints/ and they all worked 🎉
My IDE eagerly formatted some `Cargo.toml`. I've disabled it but I don't see the value in spending time reverting the changes that are already there.
I also added the `GenesisStateBytes` enum to avoid an unnecessary clone on the genesis state bytes baked into the binary. This is not a huge deal on Mainnet, but will become more relevant when testing with big genesis states.
When we do a fresh checkpoint sync we're downloading the genesis state to check the `genesis_validators_root` against the finalised state we receive. This is not *entirely* pointless, since we verify the checksum when we download the genesis state so we are actually guaranteeing that the finalised state is on the same network. There might be a smarter/less-download-y way to go about this, but I've run out of cycles to figure that out. Perhaps we can grab it in the next release?
## Issue Addressed
`web3signer_tests` can sometimes timeout.
## Proposed Changes
Increase the `web3signer_tests` timeout from 20s to 30s
## Additional Info
Previously I believed the consistent CI failures were due to this, but it ended up being something different. See below:
---
The timing of this makes it very likely it is related to the [latest release of `web3-signer`](https://github.com/Consensys/web3signer/releases/tag/23.8.1).
I now believe this is due to an out of date Java runtime on our runners. A newer version of Java became a requirement with the new `web3-signer` release.
However, I was getting timeouts locally, which implies that the margin before timeout is quite small at 20s so bumping it up to 30s could be a good idea regardless.
