Delete duplicate sync tolerance epoch config in the HTTP API which is unused.
We introduced the `sync-tolerance-epoch` flag in this PR:
- https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/7030
Then refined it in this PR:
- https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/7044
Somewhere in the merge of `release-v7.0.0` into `unstable`, the config from the original PR which had been deleted came back. I think I resolved these conflicts, so my bad.
NA
Bumps the `ethereum_ssz` version, along with other crates that share the dep.
Primarily, this give us bitfields which can store 128 bytes on the stack before allocating, rather than 32 bytes (https://github.com/sigp/ethereum_ssz/pull/38). The validator count has increase massively since we set it at 32 bytes, so aggregation bitfields (et al) now require a heap allocation. This new value of 128 should get us to ~2m active validators.
This change makes the `total_difficulty` field in `ExecutionBlock` an `Option<Uint256>` since newer clients are no longer including the `totalDifficulty` field.
I think this will fix https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/6937 but I was actually more focused on the builder registration case described below.
In our [builder-playground](https://github.com/flashbots/builder-playground) we setup a local devnet using lighthouse, reth, and mev-boost-relay. After upgrading to reth 1.2.0 and lighthouse v7.0.0.beta.0 for Pectra, we noticed that the validator registration process was _sometimes_ failing with:
```
Feb 25 23:35:25.038 ERRO Unable to publish proposer preparation to all beacon nodes, error: Some endpoints failed, num_failed: 1 http://localhost:3500/ => RequestFailed(ServerMessage(ErrorMessage { code: 400, message: "BAD_REQUEST: error updating proposer preparations: ForkchoiceUpdate(EngineError(Api { error: Json(Error(\"missing field `totalDifficulty`\", line: 0, column: 0)) }))", stacktraces: [] })), service: preparation
Feb 25 23:35:25.099 WARN Unable to publish validator registrations to the builder network, error: Some endpoints failed, num_failed: 1 http://localhost:3500/ => RequestFailed(ServerMessage(ErrorMessage { code: 400, message: "BAD_REQUEST: error updating proposer preparations: ForkchoiceUpdate(EngineError(Api { error: Json(Error(\"missing field `totalDifficulty`\", line: 0, column: 0)) }))", stacktraces: [] })), service: preparation
```
What was even more confusing, was that it was sometimes working, which actually led to a wild goose chase thinking it was a networking issue. However, when tracing through the LH code, I came across this comment:
70194dfc6a/beacon_node/beacon_chain/src/beacon_chain.rs (L6048-L6049)
This explained why it sometimes worked, in our playground we run lighthouse with `--prepare-payload-lookahead 8000` thus there was always a 4-second window where the call wasn't made.
But, if the call was made, then this code would 100% fail with updated reth:
https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/blob/unstable/beacon_node/execution_layer/src/lib.rs#L1688-L1692
Which would then mapped to a `Error::ForkchoiceUpdate` in `update_execution_engine_forkchoice`.
Anyways, the fix was to make `total_difficulty` Optional, and then to update any code paths where it was used. In doing so, I assume that if the EL doesn't include total difficulty then the chain is already post-merge.
Related to #6880, an issue that's usually observed on local devnets with small number of nodes.
When testing range sync, I usually shutdown a node for some period of time and restart it again. However, if it's within `SYNC_TOLERANCE_EPOCHS` (8), Lighthouse would consider the node as synced, and if it may attempt to produce a block if requested by a validator - on a local devnet, nodes frequently produce blocks - when this happens, the node ends up producing a block that would revert finality and would get disconnected from peers immediately.
NOTE: This is PR#7030 cherry-picked from `unstable` to `release-v7.0.0`.
Run Lighthouse BN with this flag to override:

Use the `enable_light_client_server` field from the beacon chain config in the HTTP API. I think we can make this the single source of truth, as I think the network crate also has access to the beacon chain config.
PeerDAS has undergone multiple refactors + the blending with the get_blobs optimization has generated technical debt.
A function signature like this
f008b84079/beacon_node/beacon_chain/src/beacon_chain.rs (L7171-L7178)
Allows at least the following combination of states:
- blobs: Some / None
- data_columns: Some / None
- data_column_recv: Some / None
- Block has data? Yes / No
- Block post-PeerDAS? Yes / No
In reality, we don't have that many possible states, only:
- `NoData`: pre-deneb, pre-PeerDAS with 0 blobs or post-PeerDAS with 0 blobs
- `Blobs(BlobSidecarList<E>)`: post-Deneb pre-PeerDAS with > 0 blobs
- `DataColumns(DataColumnSidecarList<E>)`: post-PeerDAS with > 0 blobs
- `DataColumnsRecv(oneshot::Receiver<DataColumnSidecarList<E>>)`: post-PeerDAS with > 0 blobs, but we obtained the columns via reconstruction
^ this are the variants of the new `AvailableBlockData` enum
So we go from 2^5 states to 4 well-defined. Downstream code benefits nicely from this clarity and I think it makes the whole feature much more maintainable.
Currently `is_available` returns a bool, and then we construct the available block in `make_available`. In a way the availability condition is duplicated in both functions. Instead, this PR constructs `AvailableBlockData` in `is_available` so the availability conditions are written once
```rust
if let Some(block_data) = is_available(..) {
let available_block = make_available(block_data);
}
```

Set the accept header on builder to the correct value when requesting ssz.
This PR also adds a flag to disable ssz over the builder api altogether. In the case that builders/relays have an ssz bug, we can react quickly by asking clients to restart their nodes with the `--disable-ssz-builder` flag to force json. I'm not fully convinced if this is useful so open to removing it or opening another PR for it.
Testing this currently.

Our Holesky nodes running with the light client enabled were logging messages about full queues:

`GET v2/validator/aggregate_attestation` is not backwards compatible. It only works for post electra attestations. This PR adds backwards compatibility and additional test coverage. We should include this in the upcoming 7.0 beta release if possible
Addresses #6854.
PeerDAS requires unsubscribing a Gossip topic at a fork boundary. This is not possible with our current topic machinery.
Instead of defining which topics have to be **added** at a given fork, we define the complete set of topics at a given fork. The new start of the show and key function is:
```rust
pub fn core_topics_to_subscribe<E: EthSpec>(
fork_name: ForkName,
opts: &TopicConfig,
spec: &ChainSpec,
) -> Vec<GossipKind> {
// ...
if fork_name.deneb_enabled() && !fork_name.fulu_enabled() {
// All of deneb blob topics are core topics
for i in 0..spec.blob_sidecar_subnet_count(fork_name) {
topics.push(GossipKind::BlobSidecar(i));
}
}
// ...
}
```
`core_topics_to_subscribe` only returns the blob topics if `fork < Fulu`. Then at the fork boundary, we subscribe with the new fork digest to `core_topics_to_subscribe(next_fork)`, which excludes the blob topics.
I added `is_fork_non_core_topic` to carry on to the next fork the aggregator topics for attestations and sync committee messages. This approach is future-proof if those topics ever become fork-dependent.
Closes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/6854
Currently we track a key metric `PEERS_PER_COLUMN_SUBNET` in a getter `good_peers_on_sampling_subnets`. Another PR https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/6922 deletes that function, so we have to move the metric anyway. This PR moves that metric computation to the metrics spawned task which is refreshed every 5 seconds.
I also added a few more useful metrics. The total set and intended usage is:
- `sync_peers_per_column_subnet`: Track health of overall subnets in your node
- `sync_peers_per_custody_column_subnet`: Track health of the subnets your node needs. We should track this metric closely in our dashboards with a heatmap and bar plot
- ~~`sync_column_subnets_with_zero_peers`: Is equivalent to the Grafana query `count(sync_peers_per_column_subnet == 0) by (instance)`. We may prefer to skip it, but I believe it's the most important metric as if `sync_column_subnets_with_zero_peers > 0` your node stalls.~~
- ~~`sync_custody_column_subnets_with_zero_peers`: `count(sync_peers_per_custody_column_subnet == 0) by (instance)`~~
Currently we have very poor coverage of range sync with unit tests. With the event driven test framework we could cover much more ground and be confident when modifying the code.
Add two basic cases:
- Happy path, complete a finalized sync for 2 epochs
- Post-PeerDAS case where we start without enough custody peers and later we find enough
⚠️ If you have ideas for more test cases, please let me know! I'll write them
- Re-opened PR from https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/6869
Writing and running tests I noted that the sync RPC requests are very verbose now.
`DataColumnsByRootRequestId { id: 123, requester: Custody(CustodyId { requester: CustodyRequester(SingleLookupReqId { req_id: 121, lookup_id: 101 }) }) }`
Since this Id is logged rather often I believe there's value in
1. Making them more succinct for log verbosity
2. Make them a string that's easy to copy and work with elastic
Write custom `Display` implementations to render Ids in a more DX format
_ DataColumnsByRootRequestId with a block lookup_
```
123/Custody/121/Lookup/101
```
_DataColumnsByRangeRequestId_
```
123/122/RangeSync/0/5492900659401505034
```

- Use a new `WorkEvent::GossipAttestationToConvert` to handle the conversion from `SingleAttestation` to `Attestation` _on_ the beacon processor (prevents a Tokio thread being blocked).
- Improve the error handling for single attestations. I think previously we had no ability to reprocess single attestations for unknown blocks -- we would just error. This seemed to be the case in both gossip processing and processing of `SingleAttestation`s from the HTTP API.
- Move the `SingleAttestation -> Attestation` conversion function into `beacon_chain` so that it can return the `attestation_verification::Error` type, which has well-defined error handling and peer penalties. The now-unused variants of `types::Attestation::Error` have been removed.
Fix another issue with fetch-blobs, similar to:
- https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/6911
Check if the list of blobs returned is all `None`, and if so, do not proceed any further.
This prevents an ugly error like:

Remove un-used batch sync error condition, which was a nested `Result<_, Result<_, E>>`
Part of
- https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/6258
To address PeerDAS sync issues we need to make individual by_range requests within a batch retriable. We should adopt the same pattern for lookup sync where each request (block/blobs/columns) is tracked individually within a "meta" request that group them all and handles retry logic.
- Building on https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/6398
second step is to add individual request accumulators for `blocks_by_range`, `blobs_by_range`, and `data_columns_by_range`. This will allow each request to progress independently and be retried separately.
Most of the logic is just piping, excuse the large diff. This PR does not change the logic of how requests are handled or retried. This will be done in a future PR changing the logic of `RangeBlockComponentsRequest`.
### Before
- Sync manager receives block with `SyncRequestId::RangeBlockAndBlobs`
- Insert block into `SyncNetworkContext::range_block_components_requests`
- (If received stream terminators of all requests)
- Return `Vec<RpcBlock>`, and insert into `range_sync`
### Now
- Sync manager receives block with `SyncRequestId::RangeBlockAndBlobs`
- Insert block into `SyncNetworkContext:: blocks_by_range_requests`
- (If received stream terminator of this request)
- Return `Vec<SignedBlock>`, and insert into `SyncNetworkContext::components_by_range_requests `
- (If received a result for all requests)
- Return `Vec<RpcBlock>`, and insert into `range_sync`

Previously, we were returning an empty vec of Nones if get_blobs was not supported in the EL. This results in confusing logging where we try to process the empty list of blobs and log a bunch of Unexpected errors. See

The error we should be getting is that getBlobs is not supported, this PR adds a new error variant and returns that.
There were two things I came across during some recent testing, that this PR addresses.
1 - The default port for IPv6 was set to 9090, which is confusing. I've set this to match its ipv4 counterpart (i.e 9000 and 9001). This makes more sense and is easier to firewall, for those firewalls that support both versions for a single rule.
2 - Watching the NAT status of lighthouse, I notice we only set the field to 1 once the NAT is passed. We don't give it a default 0 (false). So we only see results when its successful. On peer disconnects, i've piggy-backed a loop of the connected peers to also watch and check for NAT status updates.
Resolve a `TODO(das)` to use KZG batch verification in `put_rpc_custody_columns`
Uses `verify_kzg_for_data_column_list_with_scoring` in all paths that send more than one column. To use batch verification and have attributability of which peer is sending a bad column.
Needs to move `verify_kzg_for_data_column_list_with_scoring` into the type's module to convert to the KZG verified type.
`TODO(das)` now that PeerDAS is scheduled in a hard fork we can subscribe to its topics on the fork activation. In current stable we subscribe to PeerDAS topics as soon as the node starts if PeerDAS is scheduled.
This PR adds another todo to unsubscribe to blob topics at the fork. This other PR included solution for that, but I can include it in a separate PR
- https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/pull/5899/files
Include PeerDAS topics as part of Fulu fork in `fork_core_topics`.
Hopefully fixes https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/6732
In our `scheduled_subscriptions`, we were setting unsubscription slot to be `current_slot + 1`. Given that we were subscribing to the subnet at `duty.slot - 1`, the unsubscription slot ended up being `duty.slot`. So we were unsubscribing to the subnet at the beginning of the duty slot which is insane.
Fixes the `scheduled_subscriptions` to unsubscribe at `duty.slot + 1`.
Addresses #6026.
Post-PeerDAS the DB expects to have data columns for the finalized block.
Instead of forcing the user to submit the columns, this PR computes the columns from the blobs that we can already fetch from the checkpointz server or with the existing CLI options.
Note 1: (EDIT) Pruning concern addressed
Note 2: I have not tested this feature
Note 3: @michaelsproul an alternative I recall is to not require the blobs / columns at this point and expect backfill to populate the finalized block
Addresses #6706
This PR activates PeerDAS at the Fulu fork epoch instead of `EIP_7594_FORK_EPOCH`. This means we no longer support testing PeerDAS with Deneb / Electrs, as it's now part of a hard fork.
Currently, we set the `chain_id` of range sync chains to `u64(hash(target_root, target_slot))`, which results in a long integer.
```
Jan 27 00:43:27.246 DEBG Batch downloaded, chain: 4223372036854775807, awaiting_batches: 0, batch_state: [p,E,E,E,E], blocks: 0, epoch: 0, service: range_sync
```
Instead, we can use `network_context.next_id()` as we do for all other sync items and get a unique sequential (not too big) integer as id.
```
Jan 27 00:43:27.246 DEBG Batch downloaded, chain: 4, awaiting_batches: 0, batch_state: [p,E,E,E,E], blocks: 0, epoch: 0, service: range_sync
```
Also, if a specific chain for the same target is retried later, it won't get the same ID so we can more clearly differentiate the logs associated with each attempt.
When working on unrelated changes I noted:
- An unnecessary closure left by a commit of some guy named @dapplion that can be removed
- match statements that can be simplified with the new let else syntax
- instead of mapping a result to ignore the Ok value, return
