      Notify collators about seconded collation (#2430) · ac5ef00e
      Bastian Köcher authored
      * Notify collators about seconded collation
      
      This pr adds functionality to inform a collator that its collation was
      seconded by a parachain validator. Before this signed statement was only
      gossiped over the validation substream. Now, we explicitly send the
      seconded statement to the collator after it was validated successfully.
      
      Besides that it changes the `CollatorFn` to return an optional result
      sender that is informed when the build collation was seconded by a
      parachain validator.
      
      * Add test
      
      * Make sure we only send `Seconded` statements
      
      * Make sure we only receive valid statements
      
      * Review feedback

      Generic request/response infrastructure for Polkadot (#2352) · ecc3772d
      Robert Klotzner authored
      * Move NetworkBridgeEvent to subsystem::messages.
      
      It is not protocol related at all, it is in fact only part of the
      subsystem communication as it gets wrapped into messages of each
      subsystem.
      
      * Request/response infrastructure is taking shape.
      
      WIP: Does not compile.
      
      * Multiplexer variant not supported by Rusts type system.
      
      * request_response::request type checks.
      
      * Cleanup.
      
      * Minor fixes for request_response.
      
      * Implement request sending + move multiplexer.
      
      Request multiplexer is moved to bridge, as there the implementation is
      more straight forward as we can specialize on `AllMessages` for the
      multiplexing target.
      
      Sending of requests is mostly complete, apart from a few `From`
      instances. Receiving is also almost done, initializtion needs to be
      fixed and the multiplexer needs to be invoked.
      
      * Remove obsolete multiplexer.
      
      * Initialize bridge with multiplexer.
      
      * Finish generic request sending/receiving.
      
      Subsystems are now able to receive and send requests and responses via
      the overseer.
      
      * Doc update.
      
      * Fixes.
      
      * Link issue for not yet implemented code.
      
      * Fixes suggested by @ordian
      
       - thanks!
      
      - start encoding at 0
      - don't crash on zero protocols
      - don't panic on not yet implemented request handling
      
      * Update node/network/protocol/src/request_response/v1.rs
      
      Use index 0 instead of 1.

      Add metrics timing message passing from OverseerSubsystemContext to Overseer::route_message (#2201) · 004dc50d
      Peter Goodspeed-Niklaus authored
      * add timing setup to OverseerSubsystemContext
      
      * figure out how to initialize the rng
      
      * attach a timer to a portion of the messages traveling to the Overseer
      
      This timer only exists / logs a fraction of the time (configurable
      by `MESSAGE_TIMER_METRIC_CAPTURE_RATE`). When it exists, it tracks
      the span between the `OverSubsystemContext` receiving the message
      and its receipt in `Overseer::run`.
      
      * propagate message timing to the start of route_message
      
      This should be more accurate; it ensures that the timer runs
      at least as long as that function. As `route_message` is async,
      it may not actually run for some time after it is called (or ever).
      
      * fix failing test
      
      * rand_chacha apparently implicitly has getrandom feature
      
      * change rng initialization
      
      The previous impl using `from_entropy` depends on the `getrandom`
      crate, which uses the system entropy source, and which does not
      work on `wasm32-unknown-unknown` because it wants to fall back to
      a JS implementation which we can't assume exists.
      
      This impl depends only on `rand::thread_rng`, which has no documentation
      stating that it's similarly limited.
      
      * remove randomness in favor of a simpler 1 of N procedure
      
      This deserves a bit of explanation, as the motivating issue explicitly
      requested randomness. In short, it's hard to get randomness to compile
      for `wasm32-unknown-unknown` because that is explicitly intended to be
      as deterministic as practical. Additionally, even though it would never
      be used for consensus purposes, it still felt offputting to intentionally
      introduce randomness into a node's operations. Except, it wasn't really
      random, either: it was a deterministic PRNG varying only in its state,
      and getting the state to work right for that target would have required
      initializing from a constant.
      
      Given that it was a deterministic sequence anyway, it seemed much simpler
      and more explicit to simply select one of each N messages instead of
      attempting any kind of realistic randomness.
      
      * reinstate randomness for better statistical properties
      
      This partially reverts commit 0ab8594c.
      
      `oorandom` is much lighter than the previous `rand`-based implementation,
      which makes this easier to work with.
      
      This implementation gives each subsystem and each child RNG a distinct
      increment, which should ensure they produce distinct streams of values.
