Summary

Reth Engine 2.0

This release enables the new performant engine architecture for ethereum chains by default. This was previously opt-in, as the --engine.experimental flag.

Using --engine.legacy is recommended for stakers / payload builders, as the previous architecture has been tested in production for a longer period of time. Validators that update to 1.1.0 without changing any command line flags will not be using the previous architecture, hence the recommendation to add the --engine.legacy flag.

The new engine is not enabled for op-reth by default, and must still be enabled using the --engine.experimental flag. We encourage op-reth users to use this flag.

Engine 2.0 overview

The previous engine architecture required that the node database be always at the head of the chain. This requirement made it simple to reason about the database, but required that the node's engine_forkchoiceUpdated API synchronously commit to the database, which caused high latency for the API. Removing this requirement required a rewrite of the node's consensus handling logic.

This new engine architecture yields great performance improvement when syncing near the tip of the chain. Here is the engine_forkchoiceUpdated latency with the old engine:

And here is the engine_forkchoiceUpdated latency with the new engine:

ExEx breaking changes and improvements

The ExExNotifications::recv and ExExNotifications::poll_recv are now removed.

ExExNotifications::with_head is introduced - this method allows exex notifications to work properly with the new engine, and requires users to specify a head block. This head block determines where the exex notifications will start from.

Engine 2.0 improvements

There have been some performance improvements and bug fixes for the new engine architecture since 1.0.8:

• fix: acquire permit first (#11537)
• fix: in-memory trie updates pruning (#11580)

op-reth related enhancements and fixes

We have fixed some issues for op-reth instances running with --engine.experimental:

• feat: store safe block num as well (#11648)
• fix: persist finalized block (#11623)
• fix: always handle payload building for opstack (#11629)

There are also various fixes not related to the new engine architecture:

• fix: set system tx correctly (#11601)
• fix(op-reth): add jemalloc feature to optimism-cli for version (#11543)

• fix(grafana): remove rate function from panel "Transactions by Type in Pool" (#11542)
• grafana: add metrics of all transactions in pool by type (#11515)

RPC improvements

• fix: use original bytes for codes (#11593)
• chore(rpc): remove include_preimage param on debug_execution_witness (#11466)
• fix(rpc-eth-types): incorrect error msg(; -> :) (#11503)
• fix(provider): fix sub overflow on tx_range queries for empty blocks (#11568)
• chore: enforce window (#11540)
