lighthouse/beacon_node/beacon_chain/src/attestation_verification/batch.rs

//! These two `batch_...` functions provide verification of batches of attestations. They provide
//! significant CPU-time savings by performing batch verification of BLS signatures.
//!
//! In each function, attestations are "indexed" (i.e., the `IndexedAttestation` is computed), to
//! determine if they should progress to signature verification. Then, all attestations which were
//! successfully indexed have their signatures verified in a batch. If that signature batch fails
//! then all attestation signatures are verified independently.
//!
//! The outcome of each function is a `Vec<Result>` with a one-to-one mapping to the attestations
//! supplied as input. Each result provides the exact success or failure result of the corresponding
//! attestation, with no loss of fidelity when compared to individual verification.
