Arbitrum Nitro v2.3.4

This release is available as a Docker image on Docker Hub at offchainlabs/nitro-node:v2.3.4-b4cc111

What's Changed

This release lays the groundwork for ArbOS 30. It merges in new upstream go-ethereum versions, improves block validation, and improves EIP-4844 batch posting support (though known issues remain in this version fixed in master).

User-facing Improvements

• Set default --execution.sequencer.max-revert-gas-reject=0 to improve sequencer reliability: #2213
• eth_syncing: improve fields and naming: #2224
• Pull in geth fix for stopping the flat call tracer: #2258
• Add support for Redis streams to Nitro's block validation: #2241

Configuration Changes

• --log-level has new temporary values. In the next release, these will be reverted and you'll be able to use strings to set these:
  • -8 is trace
  • -4 is debug
  • 0 is info
  • 4 is warn
  • 8 is error
  • 12 is crit
• For alerting, note that error logs will now have a level field of "error" instead of "eror".
