Overview

Package peers provides information about peers at the eth2 protocol level. "Protocol level" is the level above the network level, so this layer never sees or interacts with (for example) hosts that are uncontactable due to being down, firewalled, etc. Instead, this works with peers that are contactable but may or may not be of the correct fork version, not currently required due to the number of current connections, etc.

A peer can have one of a number of states:

- connected if we are able to talk to the remote peer - connecting if we are attempting to be able to talk to the remote peer - disconnecting if we are attempting to stop being able to talk to the remote peer - disconnected if we are not able to talk to the remote peer

For convenience, there are two aggregate states expressed in functions:

- active if we are connecting or connected - inactive if we are disconnecting or disconnected

Peer information is persistent for the run of the service. This allows for collection of useful long-term statistics such as number of bad responses obtained from the peer, giving the basis for decisions to not talk to known-bad peers.

Types

type BadResponsesScorer

type BadResponsesScorer struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

BadResponsesScorer represents bad responses scoring service.

func (*BadResponsesScorer) BadPeers

func (s *BadResponsesScorer) BadPeers() []peer.ID

BadPeers returns the peers that are bad.

func (*BadResponsesScorer) Count

func (s *BadResponsesScorer) Count(pid peer.ID) (int, error)

Count obtains the number of bad responses we have received from the given remote peer.

func (*BadResponsesScorer) Decay

func (s *BadResponsesScorer) Decay()

Decay reduces the bad responses of all peers, giving reformed peers a chance to join the network. This can be run periodically, although note that each time it runs it does give all bad peers another chance as well to clog up the network with bad responses, so should not be run too frequently; once an hour would be reasonable.

func (*BadResponsesScorer) Increment

func (s *BadResponsesScorer) Increment(pid peer.ID)

Increment increments the number of bad responses we have received from the given remote peer. If peer doesn't exist this method is no-op.

func (*BadResponsesScorer) IsBadPeer

func (s *BadResponsesScorer) IsBadPeer(pid peer.ID) bool

IsBadPeer states if the peer is to be considered bad. If the peer is unknown this will return `false`, which makes using this function easier than returning an error.

func (*BadResponsesScorer) Params

Params exposes scorer's parameters.

func (*BadResponsesScorer) Score

func (s *BadResponsesScorer) Score(pid peer.ID) float64

Score returns score (penalty) of bad responses peer produced.

type BadResponsesScorerConfig

type BadResponsesScorerConfig struct {
	// Threshold specifies number of bad responses tolerated, before peer is banned.
	Threshold int
	// Weight defines weight of bad response/threshold ratio on overall score.

	// DecayInterval specifies how often bad response stats should be decayed.
	DecayInterval time.Duration
}

BadResponsesScorerConfig holds configuration parameters for bad response scoring service.

	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

BlockProviderScorer represents block provider scoring service.

func (*BlockProviderScorer) Decay

FormatScorePretty returns full scoring information in a human-readable format.

func (*BlockProviderScorer) IncrementProcessedBlocks

func (*BlockProviderScorer) Score

func (s *BlockProviderScorer) Score(pid peer.ID) float64

Score calculates and returns block provider score.

func (*BlockProviderScorer) Sorted

func (s *BlockProviderScorer) Sorted(
	pids []peer.ID, scoreFn func(pid peer.ID, score float64) float64,

func (*BlockProviderScorer) Touch

func (s *BlockProviderScorer) Touch(pid peer.ID, t ...time.Time)

Touch updates last access time for a given peer. This allows to detect peers that are stale and boost their scores to increase chances in block fetching participation.

func (*BlockProviderScorer) WeightSorted

func (s *BlockProviderScorer) WeightSorted(
	r *rand.Rand, pids []peer.ID, scoreFn func(pid peer.ID, score float64) float64,
) []peer.ID

WeightSorted returns a list of block providers weight sorted by score, where items are selected probabilistically with more "heavy" items having a higher chance of being picked.

type BlockProviderScorerConfig

type BlockProviderScorerConfig struct {
	// ProcessedBatchWeight defines a reward for a single processed batch of blocks.
	ProcessedBatchWeight float64
	// ProcessedBlocksCap defines the highest number of processed blocks that are counted towards peer's score.
	// Once that cap is attained, peer is considered good to fetch from (and several peers having the
	// same score, are picked at random). To stay at max score, peer must continue to perform, as
	// stats decays quickly.
	ProcessedBlocksCap uint64
	// DecayInterval defines how often stats should be decayed.
	DecayInterval time.Duration
	// Decay specifies number of blocks subtracted from stats on each decay step.
	Decay uint64
