Added

• Electra EIP6110: Queue deposit pr
• Add Bellatrix tests for light client functions.
• Add Discovery Rebooter Feature.
• Added GetBlockAttestationsV2 endpoint.
• Light client support: Consensus types for Electra
• Added SubmitPoolAttesterSlashingV2 endpoint.
• Added SubmitAggregateAndProofsRequestV2 endpoint.
• Updated the beacon-chain/monitor package to Electra. PR
• Added ListAttestationsV2 endpoint.
• Add ability to rollback node's internal state during processing.
• Change how unsafe protobuf state is created to prevent unnecessary copies.

Changed

• Electra EIP6110: Queue deposit requests changes from consensus spec pr Gateway registers gRPC gateway handlers #3818
• reversed the boolean return on BatchVerifyDepositsSignatures, from need verification, to all keys successfully verified
• Fix engine_exchangeCapabilities implementation.
• Updated the default scrape-interval in Client-stats to 2 minutes to accommodate Beaconcha.in API rate limits.
• Switch to compounding when consolidating with source==target.
• Revert block db save when saving state fails.
• Return false from HasBlock if the block is being synced.
• Cleanup forkchoice on failed insertions.
• Use read only validator for core processing to avoid unnecessary copying.
• Use ROBlock across block processing pipeline.
• Added missing Eth-Consensus-Version headers to GetBlockAttestationsV2 and GetAttesterSlashingsV2 endpoints.
• When instantiating new validators, explicit set Slashed to false and move EffectiveBalance to match struct definition.
• Updated pgo profile for beacon chain with holesky data. This improves the profile guided
  optimizations in the go compiler.
• Use read only state when computing the active validator list.
• Simplified ExitedValidatorIndices.
• Simplified EjectedValidatorIndices.
• engine_newPayloadV4,engine_getPayloadV4 are changes due to new execution request serialization decisions, PR
• Use ROBlock earlier in block syncing pipeline.
• Changed the signature of ProcessPayload.
• Only Build the Protobuf state once during serialization.
• Capella blocks are execution.

Deprecated

• /eth/v1alpha1/validator/activation/stream grpc wait for activation stream is deprecated. pr

Removed

• Removed finalized validator index cache, no longer needed.
• Removed validator queue position log on key reload and wait for activation.

Fixed

• Fixed mesh size by appending gParams.Dhi = gossipSubDhi
• Fix skipping partial withdrawals count.
• wait for the async StreamEvent writer to exit before leaving the http handler, avoiding race condition panics pr
• Certain deb files were returning a 404 which made building new docker images without an existing
  cache impossible. This has been fixed with updates to rules_oci and bazel-lib.
• Fixed an issue where the length check between block body KZG commitments and the existing cache from the database was incompatible.
• Fix --backfill-oldest-slot handling - this flag was totally broken, the code would always backfill to the default slot pr
• Fix keymanager API should return corrected error format for malformed tokens
• Fix keymanager API so that get keys returns an empty response instead of a 500 error when using an unsupported keystore.
• Small log imporvement, removing some redundant or duplicate logs
• EIP7521 - Fixes withdrawal bug by accounting for pending partial withdrawals and deducting already withdrawn amounts from the sweep balance. PR
