## Proposed Changes
Adds some metrics to track delays regarding:
- LH processing of blocks
- delays receiving blocks from other nodes.

## Issue Addressed
- Resolves#2064
## Proposed Changes
Adds a `ValidatorMonitor` struct which provides additional logging and Grafana metrics for specific validators.
Use `lighthouse bn --validator-monitor` to automatically enable monitoring for any validator that hits the [subnet subscription](https://ethereum.github.io/eth2.0-APIs/#/Validator/prepareBeaconCommitteeSubnet) HTTP API endpoint.
Also, use `lighthouse bn --validator-monitor-pubkeys` to supply a list of validators which will always be monitored.
See the new docs included in this PR for more info.
## TODO
- [x] Track validator balance, `slashed` status, etc.
- [x] ~~Register slashings in current epoch, not offense epoch~~
- [ ] Publish Grafana dashboard, update TODO link in docs
- [x] ~~#2130 is merged into this branch, resolve that~~
## Issue Addressed
NA
## Proposed Changes
Copied from #2083, changes the config milliseconds_per_slot to seconds_per_slot to avoid errors when slot duration is not a multiple of a second. To avoid deserializing old serialized data (with milliseconds instead of seconds) the Serialize and Deserialize derive got removed from the Spec struct (isn't currently used anyway).
This PR replaces #2083 for the purpose of fixing a merge conflict without requiring the input of @blacktemplar.

## Proposed Changes
As per #2100, uses derives from the sturm library to implement AsRef<str> and AsStaticRef to easily get str values from enums without creating new Strings. Furthermore unifies all attestation error counter into one IntCounterVec vector.
These works are originally by @blacktemplar, I've just created this PR so I can resolve some merge conflicts.

`test_dht_persistence` failing
## Proposed Changes
Bind `NetworkService::start` to an underscore prefixed variable rather than `_`. `_` was causing it to be dropped immediately

This is a little bit of a tip-of-the-iceberg PR. It houses a lot of code changes in the libp2p dependency.
This needs a bit of thorough testing before merging.
The primary code changes are:
- General libp2p dependency update
- Gossipsub refactor to shift compression into gossipsub providing performance improvements and improved API for handling compression

## Issue Addressed
N/A
## Proposed Changes
Fixes multiple issues related to discovering of subnet peers.
1. Subnet discovery retries after yielding no results
2. Metadata updates if peer send older metadata
3. peerdb stores the peer subscriptions from gossipsub
## 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
#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
NA
## 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 Addressed
Resolves#1434 (this is the last major feature in the standard spec. There are only a couple of places we may be off-spec due to recent spec changes or ongoing discussion)
Partly addresses #1669
## Proposed Changes
- remove the websocket server
- remove the `TeeEventHandler` and `NullEventHandler`
- add server sent events according to the eth2 API spec

## Issue Addressed
Following slog's documentation, this should help a bit with string allocations. I left it run for two days and mem usage is lower. This is of course anecdotal, but shouldn't harm anyway
## Proposed Changes
remove `String` creation in logs when possible
## 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
- 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
Two issues related to empty batches
- Chain target's was not being advanced when the batch was successful, empty and the chain didn't have an optimistic batch
- Not switching finalized chains. We now switch finalized chains requiring a minimum work first
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
Design notes are here https://hackmd.io/@sproul/HJSEklmPL
## Issue Addressed
NA
## 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.
## Additional Info
NA
## Issue Addressed
we have a log saying we add a peer to a chain, and an another one in case the chain is not syncing. To avoid needing to peer there two (and reduce log entries) simply log the chain's syncing state in the chain's KV
## 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
NA
## 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.
## 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
#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.
## Additional Info
NA
## 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.
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
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
- Also a bug where a chain would get removed if the optimistic batch succeeds being empty
## Additional Info
Tested on Medalla and looking good
## 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
## 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.
## 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.

check for advanced peers and the state of the chain wrt the clock slot to decide if a chain is or not synced /transitioning to a head sync. Also a fix that prevented getting the right state while syncing heads
## Issue Addressed
#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.
## Issue Addressed

Which issue # does this PR address?
## Proposed Changes
1. Fixes a bug in the simulator where nodes can't find each other due to 0 udp ports in their enr.
2. Fixes bugs in attestation service where we are unsubscribing from a subnet prematurely.
More testing is needed for attestation service fixes.
