## Issue Addressed
Enable https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3322 by default on all networks.
The feature can be opted out of using `--count-unrealized=false` (the CLI flag is updated to take a parameter).
## Issue Addressed
https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3091
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

## Issue Addressed
Resolves#3267Resolves#3156
## 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 .

## Proposed Changes
Since Rust 1.62, we can use `#[derive(Default)]` on enums. ✨https://blog.rust-lang.org/2022/06/30/Rust-1.62.0.html#default-enum-variants
There are no changes to functionality in this PR, just replaced the `Default` trait implementation with `#[derive(Default)]`.
## Issue Addressed
* #3173
## Proposed Changes
Moved all `fee_recipient_file` related logic inside the `ValidatorStore` as it makes more sense to have this all together there. I tested this with the validators I have on `mainnet-shadow-fork-5` and everything appeared to work well. Only technicality is that I can't get the method to return `401` when the authorization header is not specified (it returns `400` instead). Fixing this is probably quite difficult given that none of `warp`'s rejections have code `401`.. I don't really think this matters too much though as long as it fails.
## Issue Addressed
This PR is a subset of the changes in #3134. Unstable will still not function correctly with the new builder spec once this is merged, #3134 should be used on testnets
## Proposed Changes
- Removes redundancy in "builders" (servers implementing the builder spec)
- Renames `payload-builder` flag to `builder`
- Moves from old builder RPC API to new HTTP API, but does not implement the validator registration API (implemented in https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3194)

Resolves#3069
## Proposed Changes
Unify the `eth1-endpoints` and `execution-endpoints` flags in a backwards compatible way as described in https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3069#issuecomment-1134219221
Users have 2 options:
1. Use multiple non auth execution endpoints for deposit processing pre-merge
2. Use a single jwt authenticated execution endpoint for both execution layer and deposit processing post merge
Related https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3118
To enable jwt authenticated deposit processing, this PR removes the calls to `net_version` as the `net` namespace is not exposed in the auth server in execution clients.
Moving away from using `networkId` is a good step in my opinion as it doesn't provide us with any added guarantees over `chainId`. See https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/issues/2163 and https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2115

## Issue Addressed
Following up from https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/3223#issuecomment-1158718102, it has been observed that the validator client uses vastly more memory in some compilation configurations than others. Compiling with Cross and then putting the binary into an Ubuntu 22.04 image seems to use 3x more memory than compiling with Cargo directly on Debian bullseye.
## Proposed Changes
Enable malloc metrics for the validator client. This will hopefully allow us to see the difference between the two compilation configs and compare heap fragmentation. This PR doesn't enable malloc tuning for the VC because it was found to perform significantly worse. The `--disable-malloc-tuning` flag is repurposed to just disable the metrics.
## 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.

## 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.
## Issue Addressed
Addresses sync stalls on v2.2.0 (i.e. https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/3147).
## Additional Info
I've avoided doing a full `cargo update` because I noticed there's a new patch version of libp2p and thought it could do with some more testing.
Co-authored-by: Paul Hauner <paul@paulhauner.com>
## Proposed Changes
Cut release v2.2.0 including proposer boost.
## Additional Info
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
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).
## 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
Set a minimum supported Rust version (MSRV) in the `Cargo.toml` for the Lighthouse binary so that attempts to compile it with an outdated compiler fail immediately with a clear error.
To ensure that the codebase builds with the MSRV I've also added a Github actions job that runs `cargo check` using the MSRV extracted from `Cargo.toml`. This will force us to keep it up to date.
I opted to use `cargo check` rather than Clippy because Clippy frequently introduces new lints that we adopt, so our MSRV for Clippy is usually the most recent Rust version, while the MSRV for building Lighthouse is older.
## Issue Addressed

## 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
Lots of lint updates related to `flat_map`, `unwrap_or_else` and string patterns. I did a little more creative refactoring in the op pool, but otherwise followed Clippy's suggestions.
## Additional Info
We need this PR to unblock CI.
## Issue Addressed
Closes#2990
## Proposed Changes
Add a check to see if the `--validators-dir` CLI flag is set and if so store validator logs into it.
Ensure that if the log directory cannot be created, emit a `WARN` and disable file logging rather than panicking.
## Additional Info
Panics associated with logfiles can still occur in these scenarios:
1. The `$datadir/validators/logs` directory already exists with the wrong permissions (or was changed after creation).
1. The logfile already exists with the wrong permissions (or was changed after creation).
> These panics are cosmetic only since only the logfile thread panics. Following the panics, LH will continue to function as normal.
I believe this is due to the use of [`slog::Fuse`](https://docs.rs/slog/latest/slog/struct.Fuse.html) when initializing the logger.
I'm not sure if there a better way of handling logfile errors?
I think ideally, rather than panicking, we would emit a `WARN` to the stdout logger with the panic reason, then exit the logfile thread gracefully.
## Issue Addressed
#3020
## Proposed Changes
- Alias the `validators-dir` arg to `validator-dir` in the `validator_client` subcommand.
- Alias the `validator-dir` arg to `validators-dir` in the `account_manager validator` subcommand.
- Add test for the validator_client alias.
## Issue Addressed
NA
## 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.

## 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.
## 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 :)

## 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
