BABE Randomness using PreRuntime digests (#2929)
* Initial work on exposing pre-runtime digests This provides the primitive API, as well as exposing it from BABE. * Initial work on using pre-digests in runtimes This includes both code to expose them from `srml_system`, as well as using it in (currently dead) code in `srml_babe`. * Bump `{spec,impl}_version` * Add `u64_backend` feature to curve25519-dalek Otherwise, it errors out at compile-time. * Bump `Cargo.lock` * Do not depend on the schnorrkel crate in the runtime The schnorrkel crate does not work on `#![no_std]`, but the runtime only needs constants from it. This adds our own definitions of those constants, and checks them for correctness at compile-time. * Actually implement storage of VRF outputs * Trivial formatting change * Provide a `hash_randomness` function in BABE for processing VRF outputs. * Implement a basic randomness generating function It just XORs the VRF outputs together. * Actually implement on-chain randomness Blake2b is used for hashing. * Update dependencies * Run `cargo update` where needed * Re-add a newline at EOF * Remove broken and unsafe code XOR is not a hash function, and must not be used as such. The implementation was also needlessly unsafe. * Run `cargo update` where needed * Remove spurious dependency * Document security guarantees of BABE randomness * Add a `RandomnessBeacon` trait * Document `RandomnessBeacon::random` * Fix silly compile error (unexpected type arguments) * Fix BABE randomness * Implement `FindAuthor` for `babe::Module` * Apply suggestions from code review Co-Authored-By: Bastian Köcher <[email protected]> Co-Authored-By: Robert Habermeier <[email protected]> * Respond to suggestions from code review and fix bugs * Store an authority index, not the authority itself. * Avoid unnecessary decoding. * Implement relative slots and BABE randomness fully and correctly. * Remove spurious dependency * Fix error reported by rust-analyzer * Update Cargo.lock files * `wrapping_add` → `checked_add` The epoch index will not overflow. Panic if it does. * Move randomness documentation to trait * Fix compile error in test suite * Explain 2^64 limit Co-Authored-By: Robert Habermeier <[email protected]>
