Glutton currently is useful mostly for stress testing relay chain
validators. It is unusable for testing the collator networking and block
announcement and import scenarios. This PR resolves that by improving
glutton pallet to also buff up the blocks, up to the runtime configured
`BlockLength`.

### How it works
Includes an additional inherent in each parachain block. The `garbage`
argument passed to the inherent is filled with trash data. It's size is
computed by applying the newly introduced `block_length` percentage to
the maximum block length for mandatory dispatch class. After
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/4765 is merged, the
length of inherent extrinsic will be added to the total block proof
size.

The remaining weight is burnt in `on_idle` as configured by the
`storage` percentage parameter.

The Polkadot SDK repository provides all the components needed to start building on the Polkadot network, a multi-chain blockchain platform that enables different blockchains to interoperate and share information in a secure and scalable way.

📚 Documentation

🚀 Releases

[!NOTE] Our release process is still Work-In-Progress and may not yet reflect the aspired outline here.

The Polkadot-SDK has two release channels: stable and nightly. Production software is advised to only use stable. nightly is meant for tinkerers to try out the latest features. The detailed release process is described in RELEASE.md.

You can use psvm to manage your Polkadot-SDK dependency versions in downstream projects.

😌 Stable

stable releases have a support duration of three months. In this period, the release will not have any breaking changes. It will receive bug fixes, security fixes, performance fixes and new non-breaking features on a two week cadence.

🤠 Nightly

nightly releases are released every night from the master branch, potentially with breaking changes. They have pre-release version numbers in the format major.0.0-nightlyYYMMDD.

🛠️ Tooling

Polkadot SDK Version Manager: A simple tool to manage and update the Polkadot SDK dependencies in any Cargo.toml file. It will automatically update the Polkadot SDK dependencies to their correct crates.io version.

🔐 Security

The security policy and procedures can be found in docs/contributor/SECURITY.md.

Polkadot Fellowship

Development in this repo usually goes hand in hand with the fellowship organization. In short, this repository provides all the SDK pieces needed to build both Polkadot and its parachains. But, the actual Polkadot runtime lives in the fellowship/runtimes repository. Read more about the fellowship, this separation, the RFC process here.

History

This repository is the amalgamation of 3 separate repositories that used to make up Polkadot SDK, namely Substrate, Polkadot and Cumulus. Read more about the merge and its history here.
