      [FRAME] Runtime Omni Bencher (#3512) · 9543d314
      Oliver Tale-Yazdi authored 
      This MR contains two major changes and some maintenance cleanup.  

## 1. Free Standing Pallet Benchmark Runner

Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3045, depends
on your runtime exposing the `GenesisBuilderApi` (like
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1492).

Introduces a new binary crate: `frame-omni-bencher`.  
It allows to directly benchmark a WASM blob - without needing a node or
chain spec.

This makes it much easier to generate pallet weights and should allow us
to remove bloaty code from the node.
It should work for all FRAME runtimes that dont use 3rd party host calls
or non `BlakeTwo256` block hashing (basically all polkadot parachains
should work).

It is 100% backwards compatible with the old CLI args, when the `v1`
compatibility command is used. This is done to allow for forwards
compatible addition of new commands.

### Example (full example in the Rust docs)

Installing the CLI:
```sh
cargo install --locked --path substrate/utils/frame/omni-bencher
frame-omni-bencher --help
```

Building the Westend runtime:
```sh
cargo build -p westend-runtime --release --features runtime-benchmarks
```

Benchmarking the runtime:
```sh
frame-omni-bencher v1 benchmark pallet --runtime target/release/wbuild/westend-runtime/westend_runtime.compact.compressed.wasm --all
```

## 2. Building the Benchmark Genesis State in the Runtime

Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/2664

This adds `--runtime` and `--genesis-builder=none|runtime|spec`
arguments to the `benchmark pallet` command to make it possible to
generate the genesis storage by the runtime. This can be used with both
the node and the freestanding benchmark runners. It utilizes the new
`GenesisBuilder` RA and depends on having
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3412

 deployed.

## 3. Simpler args for `PalletCmd::run`

You can do three things here to integrate the changes into your node:
- nothing: old code keeps working as before but emits a deprecated
warning
- delete: remove the pallet benchmarking code from your node and use the
omni-bencher instead
- patch: apply the patch below and keep using as currently. This emits a
deprecated warning at runtime, since it uses the old way to generate a
genesis state, but is the smallest change.

```patch
runner.sync_run(|config| cmd
-    .run::<HashingFor<Block>, ReclaimHostFunctions>(config)
+    .run_with_spec::<HashingFor<Block>, ReclaimHostFunctions>(Some(config.chain_spec))
)
```

## 4. Maintenance Change
- `pallet-nis` get a `BenchmarkSetup` config item to prepare its
counterparty asset.
- Add percent progress print when running benchmarks.
- Dont immediately exit on benchmark error but try to run as many as
possible and print errors last.

Let me know if this structure is adequate.

**Note:** The usage of the words `Merkle`, `Merkelize`, `Merklization`,
`Merkelization`, `Merkleization`, is somewhat inconsistent but I left it
as it is.

~~**Note:** In some places the term `Receival` is used to refer to
message reception, IMO `Reception` is the correct word here, but I left
it as it is.~~

~~**Note:** In some places the term `Overlayed` is used instead of the
more acceptable version `Overlaid` but I also left it as it is.~~

~~**Note:** In some places the term `Applyable` is used instead of the
correct version `Applicable` but I also left it as it is.~~

**Note:** Some usage of British vs American english e.g. `judgement` vs
`judgment`, `initialise` vs `initialize`, `optimise` vs `optimize` etc.
are both present in different places, but I suppose that's
understandable given the number of contributors.

~~**Note:** There is a spelling mistake in `.github/CODEOWNERS` but it
triggers errors in CI when I make changes to it, so I left it as it
is.~~

      Repot all templates into a single directory (#3460) · 4c810609
      Kian Paimani authored 
      The first step towards
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3155

Brings all templates under the following structure

```
templates
|   parachain
|   |   polkadot-launch
|   |   runtime              --> parachain-template-runtime
|   |   pallets              --> pallet-parachain-template
|   |   node                 --> parachain-template-node
|   minimal
|   |   runtime              --> minimal-template-runtime
|   |   pallets              --> pallet-minimal-template
|   |   node                 --> minimal-template-node
|   solochain
|   |   runtime              --> solochain-template-runtime
|   |   pallets              --> pallet-template (the naming is not consistent here)
|   |   node                 --> solochain-template-node
```

The only note-worthy changes in this PR are: 

- More `Cargo.toml` fields are forwarded to use the one from the
workspace.
- parachain template now has weights and benchmarks
- adds a shell pallet to the minimal template
- remove a few unused deps 


A list of possible follow-ups: 

- [ ] Unify READMEs, create a parent README for all
- [ ] remove references to `docs.substrate.io` in templates
- [ ] make all templates use `#[derive_impl]`
- [ ] update and unify all licenses
- [ ] Remove polkadot launch, use
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/blob/35349df993ea2e7c4769914ef5d199e787b23d4c/cumulus/zombienet/examples/small_network.toml

      subsystem-bench: add regression tests for availability read and write (#3311) · f0e589d7
      Andrei Eres authored 
      ### What's been done
- `subsystem-bench` has been split into two parts: a cli benchmark
runner and a library.
- The cli runner is quite simple. It just allows us to run `.yaml` based
test sequences. Now it should only be used to run benchmarks during
development.
- The library is used in the cli runner and in regression tests. Some
code is changed to make the library independent of the runner.
- Added first regression tests for availability read and write that
replicate existing test sequences.

### How we run regression tests
- Regression tests are simply rust integration tests without the
harnesses.
- They should only be compiled under the `subsystem-benchmarks` feature
to prevent them from running with other tests.
- This doesn't work when running tests with `nextest` in CI, so
additional filters have been added to the `nextest` runs.
- Each benchmark run takes a different time in the beginning, so we
"warm up" the tests until their CPU usage differs by only 1%.
- After the warm-up, we run the benchmarks a few more times and compare
the average with the exception using a precision.

### What is still wrong?
- I haven't managed to set up approval voting tests. The spread of their
results is too large and can't be narrowed down in a reasonable amount
of time in the warm-up phase.
- The tests start an unconfigurable prometheus endpoint inside, which
causes errors because they use the same 9999 port. I disable it with a
flag, but I think it's better to extract the endpoint launching outside
the test, as we already do with `valgrind` and `pyroscope`. But we still
use `prometheus` inside the tests.

      Runtime: allow backing multiple candidates of same parachain on different cores (#3231) · 2431001e
      Andrei Sandu authored 
      Fixes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/3144

Builds on top of https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/3229

### Summary
Some preparations for Runtime to support elastic scaling, guarded by
config node features bit `FeatureIndex::ElasticScalingMVP`. This PR
introduces a per-candidate `CoreIndex` but does it in a hacky way to
avoid changing `CandidateCommitments`, `CandidateReceipts` primitives
and networking protocols.

#### Including `CoreIndex` in `BackedCandidate`
If the `ElasticScalingMVP` feature bit is enabled then
`BackedCandidate::validator_indices` is extended by 8 bits.
The value stored in these bits represents the assumed core index for the
candidate.

It is temporary solution which works by creating a mapping from
`BackedCandidate` to `CoreIndex` by assuming the `CoreIndex` can be
discovered by checking in which validator group the validator that
signed the statement is.

TODO:
- [x] fix tests
- [x] add new tests
- [x] Bump runtime API for Kusama, so we have that node features thing!

      PoV Reclaim Runtime Side (#3002) · 3386377b
      Sebastian Kunert authored 
      

# Runtime side for PoV Reclaim

## Implementation Overview
- Hostfunction to fetch the storage proof size has been added to the
PVF. It uses the size tracking recorder that was introduced in my
previous PR.
- Mechanisms to use the reclaim HostFunction have been introduced.
- 1. A SignedExtension that checks the node-reported proof size before
and after application of an extrinsic. Then it reclaims the difference.
- 2. A manual helper to make reclaiming easier when manual interaction
is required, for example in `on_idle` or other hooks.
- In order to utilize the manual reclaiming, I modified `WeightMeter` to
support the reduction of consumed weight, at least for storage proof
size.

## How to use
To enable the general functionality for a parachain:
1. Add the SignedExtension to your parachain runtime. 
2. Provide the HostFunction to the node
3. Enable proof recording during block import

## TODO

      rpc server: make possible to disable/enable batch requests (#3364) · fee810a5
      Niklas Adolfsson authored 
      The rationale behind this, is that it may be useful for some users
actually disable RPC batch requests or limit them by length instead of
the total size bytes of the batch.

This PR adds two new CLI options:

```
--rpc-disable-batch-requests - disable batch requests on the server
--rpc-max-batch-request-len <LEN> - limit batches to LEN on the server.

      Build more runtimes targeting PolkaVM (#3209) · 402b64ca
      Koute authored 
      This PR improves compatibility with RISC-V and PolkaVM, allowing more
runtimes to successfully compile.

In particular, it makes the following changes:

- The `sp-mmr-primitives` and `sp-consensus-beefy` crates
unconditionally required an `std`-only dependency; now they only require
those dependencies when the `std` feature is actually enabled. (Our
RISC-V target is, unlike WASM, a true `no_std` target where you can't
accidentally use stuff from `std` anymore.)
- One of our dependencies (the `bitvec` trace) uses a crate called
`radium` which doesn't compile under RISC-V due to incomplete
autodetection logic in their `build.rs` file. The good news is that this
is already fixed in the newest upstream version of `radium`, and the
newest version of `bitvec` uses it. The bad news is that the newest
version of `bitvec` is not currently released on crates.io, so we can't
use it. I've [created an
issue](https://github.com/ferrilab/ferrilab/issues/5) asking for a new
release, but in the meantime I forked the currently used `radium` 0.7,
[fixed the faulty
logic](https://github.com/paritytech/radium-0.7-fork/commit/ed66c8a294b138c67f93499644051d97d4c7fbda)
and used cargo's patching capabilities to use it for the RISC-V runtime
builds. This might be a little hacky, but it is the least intrusive way
to fix the problem, doesn't affect WASM builds at all, and we can
trivially remove it once a new `bitvec` is released.
- The new runtimes are added to the CI to make sure their compilation
doesn't break.

      Initial support for building RISC-V runtimes targeting PolkaVM (#3179) · e349fc9e
      Koute authored 
      This PR adds initial support for building RISC-V runtimes targeting
PolkaVM.

- Setting the `SUBSTRATE_RUNTIME_TARGET=riscv` environment variable will
now build a RISC-V runtime instead of a WASM runtime.
- This only adds support for *building* runtimes; running them will need
a PolkaVM-based executor, which I will add in a future PR.
- Only building the minimal runtime is supported (building the Polkadot
runtime doesn't work *yet* due to one of the dependencies).
- The builder now sets a `substrate_runtime` cfg flag when building the
runtimes, with the idea being that instead of doing `#[cfg(not(feature =
"std"))]` or `#[cfg(target_arch = "wasm32")]` to detect that we're
building a runtime you'll do `#[cfg(substrate_runtime)]`. (Switching the
whole codebase to use this will be done in a future PR; I deliberately
didn't do this here to keep this PR minimal and reviewable.)
- Further renaming of things (e.g. types, environment variables and proc
macro attributes having "wasm" in their name) to be target-agnostic will
also be done in a future refactoring PR (while keeping backwards
compatibility where it makes sense; I don't intend to break anyone's
workflow or create unnecessary churn).
- This PR also fixes two bugs in the `wasm-builder` crate:
* The `RUSTC` environment variable is now removed when invoking the
compiler. This prevents the toolchain version from being overridden when
called from a `build.rs` script.
* When parsing the `rustup toolchain list` output the `(default)` is now
properly stripped and not treated as part of the version.
- I've also added a minimal CI job that makes sure this doesn't break in
the future. (cc @paritytech/ci)

cc @athei



------

Also, just a fun little tidbit: quickly comparing the size of the built
runtimes it seems that the PolkaVM runtime is slightly smaller than the
WASM one. (`production` build, with the `names` section substracted from
the WASM's size to keep things fair, since for the PolkaVM runtime we're
currently stripping out everything)

- `.wasm`: 625505 bytes
- `.wasm` (after wasm-opt -O3): 563205 bytes
- `.wasm` (after wasm-opt -Os): 562987 bytes
- `.wasm` (after wasm-opt -Oz): 536852 bytes
- `.polkavm`: ~~580338 bytes~~ 550476 bytes (after enabling extra target
features; I'll add those in another PR once we have an executor working)
