Related to https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/issues/4523

Extracting part of https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1903
(credits to @Lederstrumpf

 for the high-level strategy), but also
introducing significant adjustments both to the approach and to the
code. The main adjustment is the fact that the `ForkVotingProof` accepts
only one vote, compared to the original version which accepted a
`vec![]`. With this approach more calls are needed in order to report
multiple equivocated votes on the same commit, but it simplifies a lot
the checking logic. We can add support for reporting multiple signatures
at once in the future.

There are 2 things that are missing in order to consider this issue
done, but I would propose to do them in a separate PR since this one is
already pretty big:
- benchmarks/computing a weight for the new extrinsic (this wasn't
present in https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/1903 either)
- exposing an API for generating the ancestry proof. I'm not sure if we
should do this in the Mmr pallet or in the Beefy pallet

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.

Take a look at the issues labeled with mentor (or alternatively this page, created by one of the maintainers) label to get started! We always recognize valuable contributions by proposing an on-chain tip to the Polkadot network as a token of our appreciation.

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.
