## 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.
Future us should find it useful

## 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
- 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.
## Additional Info

## Issue Addressed
NA
## 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

## Proposed Changes
Change log message severity from error to debug in attestation verification when attestation state is finalized.
## Issue Addressed
New rust lints
## Proposed Changes
- Boxing some enum variants
- removing some unused fields (is the validator lockfile unused? seemed so to me)
## Additional Info
- some error fields were marked as dead code but are logged out in areas
- left some dead fields in our ef test code because I assume they are useful for debugging?

Various Changes to Conform Closer to Merge Spec
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.
## 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.
RPC Responses are for some reason not removing their timeout when they are completing.

## 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`.
## 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.
## 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`

## Additional Info
NA
## 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.

## Proposed Changes
When peers switching to a disconnecting state, decrement the disconnected peers counter. This also downgrades some crit logs to errors.
I've also added a re-sync point when peers get unbanned the disconnected peer count will match back to the number of disconnected peers if it has gone out of sync previously.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#2528
## 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

## 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.

## 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.
