Highlights

❣️❣️❣️ PoSt Workers ❣️❣️❣️

‼️️Attention - the long-awaited yet highly requested PoSt workers, they are here! And they come in as a combo: you may setup PoSt workers for both winningPoSt or/and windowPoSt worker. You can also setup any number of PoSt workers as long as you have the hardware resources!
For more details and learn how to set it up, see the docs here. You can also find early result of the PoSt workers performance by the community here.

• feat: PoSt workers (filecoin-project/lotus#7971)
• feat: storage: Parallel proving checks (filecoin-project/lotus#8391)
  • adjust ParallelCheckLimit according to your resource setup to get pre-post checkers run faster!

In addition, we also added some handy toolings:

• feat: miner: API/CLI to compute window-post (filecoin-project/lotus#8389)
  • run lotus-miner proving compute window-post to manually trigger a full windowPoSt computation for a specific deadline for full sanity checks.
• feat: miner cli: Separate proving workers command (filecoin-project/lotus#8379)
  • run lotus-miner proving workers to list all the PoSt workers that's attached
• feat: miner cli: proving check --faulty, faults in storage list sectors (filecoin-project/lotus#8349)
  • run lotus-miner proving check --faulty to identify the sectors that might be bad.

🔥🔥🔥 Sealing Scheduler Enhancement 🔥🔥🔥

Have you ever got a couple workers but only a few of them are super packed, while the rest are idling waiting for jobs? Now the task can be distributed more evenly with:

• feat: sched: Improve worker assigning logic (filecoin-project/lotus#8447)

🌟🌟🌟 Snap Deal Enhancements 🌟🌟🌟

The Filecoin Network introduced Snap Deal with the network v15 OhSnap upgrade, and lotus shipped v1.14.0 with basic snappy support for SP to use this feature. Since then, we have received good ux feedbacks and bug reports from the community, and we are introducing a couple enhancement for SPs to better leverage this feature.
