Thanks @jimmygchen
Proposed Changes
Previously, we were adding a
BlobSidecar
's header to the slasher under the following conditions:These conditions do not cover all cases since a valid gossip blob with an equivocating header that gets into the
observed_blob_cache
will not fail gossip verification and will never be fully available since the proposer need not propagate the full signed equivocating block. Such aBlobSidecar
with a slashable block header will just go sit in the DA cache and eventually get pruned.Hence, this PR adds the signed header before adding the blobs to the DA cache.
I have also changed the
BlockQueue
data structure to be aHashSet
instead of aVec
since we are adding potentially many duplicate headers per slot. Looking at the slasher code, I don't think changing the data structure is an issue, please correct me if that's wrong or unnecessary @michaelsproul
