Tree States v3.4.0 alpha.3

on GitHub

Disclaimer

⚠️ You should not run this alpha release supporting mainnet validators ⚠️

If you are looking for the latest Lighthouse release please go to https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/releases/latest.

Summary

This is an alpha release of upcoming changes to Lighthouse which improve disk usage and state management.

For more information about the -tree.X family of releases, please see the v3.4.0-tree.1 release notes.

Compared to the previous release the main changes are:

• Fixed a database corruption bug which could occur when reconstructing historic states (dbb0cf7, 2f6ffff).
• Improved interaction between state reconstruction and finalization (481e792).
• Latest changes from unstable, including new rewards APIs.

Note that there is no v3.4.0-tree.2 release due to a build failure.

⚠️ Backwards Compatibility ⚠️

This release is not backwards compatible with stable Lighthouse. It uses a different database schema (v20) for which no automatic upgrade or downgrade is implemented. We intend to implement an automatic upgrade process once the new schema is finalized. A re-sync will be required to run future versions of tree-states.

This release is backwards compatible with the prior tree-states release (v3.4.0-tree.1).

Please only run this release if you are willing to re-sync now, and again in several weeks/months.

Known Issues

Expect a few sharp edges. Some things you may run into:

• WARN Parent state is not advanced is logged excessively during sync. This is harmless, albeit annoying.
• Block processing is a bit slower than stable Lighthouse.
• The Windows binary will not compile with the maxperf profile (use release).

Building from source

Build the v3.4.0-tree.3 tag.
