KPI 35.OP-3 - Runtime Upgrade Test

Among other things, we want to adjust the Validator Staking Rewards through a runtime upgrade. We did this with the Constantinople runtime upgrade, so we know it was "safe" on previous versions of substrate. Let's confirm it works on this version as well, alongside some other changes.

The goal is to

Build joystream-node
Create chain spec
Deploy a test network
Perform a runtime upgrade
Results table with blockheights, issuances, stakes, stakers, actions, rewards, eraIndex, etc.

Note: Target audience is technical with interest to run a substrate chain. Familiarity with terminals is recommended but all necessary info to reproduce the steps should be included, it helps to re-read

Build joystream-node

Build a runtime based on the Sumer branch. Make sure the nodes are configured so you can access, and use pioneer.

This means to allow remote connections with --rpc-all. Keeping that in mind for later.

Check out sumer branch of the joystream repository: $ git clone https://github.com/Joystream/joystream -b sumer

See node/README.md and follow the instructions:

Run ./setup.sh, build the infrastructure and the joystream-node.

$ cd joystream
setup.sh # install dependencies
WASM_BUILD_TOOLCHAIN=nightly-2021-03-24 cargo build --release # build runtime
````
If all goes well after some minutes we can use the newly built node. Unfortunately it fails:

The giza branch uses a different rust version. From `setup.sh`:

rustup install nightly-2021-02-20 rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown --toolchain nightly-2021-02-20

and `node/README.md`:
`WASM_BUILD_TOOLCHAIN=nightly-2021-02-20 cargo +nightly-2021-02-20 build --release`

Using it works, just not on this instance:

WASM_BUILD_TOOLCHAIN=nightly-2021-02-20 cargo +nightly-2021-02-20 build --release ... piler_builtins-ea377e9224.rlib" "-Wl,-Bdynamic" "-lstdc++" "-lgcc_s" "-lutil" "-lrt" "-lpthread" "-lm" "-ldl" "-lc" = note: collect2: fatal error: ld terminated with signal 9 [Killed]

      compilation terminated.


For a successful build around 10GB free space and more than 2GB RAM are needed. This VPS has only 2GB and it was easier to build the binary on another one and use that:

$ joystream-node -V joystream-node 5.9.0-decf3eff85-x86_64-linux-gnu


## Chain spec

### Build chain-spec-builder

It is not documented but to use the `chain-spec-builder` it needs to be built first:

cd utils/chain-spec-builder WASM_BUILD_TOOLCHAIN=nightly-2021-02-20 cargo +nightly-2021-02-20 build --release


This creates `target/release/chain-spec-builder`:

~joystream$ target/release/chain-spec-builder chain-spec-builder 3.1.1 A utility to easily create a testnet chain spec definition with a given set of authorities and endowed accounts and/or generate random accounts

USAGE:

### Generate chain spec

To run a test network each node needs a chain spec file (See: [#507](https://github.com/Joystream/community-repo/issues/507)).

Build chain spec: `./chain-spec-builder generate -a <a> -e <e> -i <i> -c /path/to/raw/chain_spec.json -k /path/to/validator/keys`

> <a> is the number of "authority" validators, that needs be started simultaniously when deploying the network.
> <e> is the number of "endowed" accounts, meaning keys with a starting balance of some amount of tokens. I suggest 1.
> <i> is the path to initial state, meaning you can pass a json with (exported) balances, content, forum and membership paths. Neither are strictly needed, but included for reference. I suggest skipping.

`-i` is not necessary. For `-a 2` and `-e 1` is good for testing, increase the number of authorities to go live. The directory specified with `-k` is being created.

$ chain-spec-builder generate -a 2 -e 1 -k keys Authority seeds auth-0: //GXOJtYGrTbnbeO4uZxsb2mdihC95EdOj auth-1: //r52IKKxCjdT5JLcAjyYsvv1dfDPyvM6P

Endowed seeds endowed-0: //3mc7GpPkRnbklvWkDwnhOUdWl9yA0Zsr

Sudo seed //TGkVNvt7hYjU5wfHZfuz3YxYrNdIdEXm

these are not actually in use..


`auth-0` goes to `<chain_dir>/keystore` on the first node, `auth-1` to the second.

To inspect the seeded keys [subkey](https://docs.substrate.io/v3/advanced/ss58/#subkey) needs to be installed:

$ cargo install --force subkey --git https://github.com/paritytech/substrate --version 2.0.1 --locked $ subkey inspect //3mc7GpPkRnbklvWkDwnhOUdWl9yA0Zsr # endowed seed Secret Key URI //3mc7GpPkRnbklvWkDwnhOUdWl9yA0Zsr is account: Secret seed: 0xe9081954562235a57c067b8fd17eaab380f86ab06b049643c9df821bef300a86 Public key (hex): 0xe4ca06e861f511314e67a7b7c423a4d4071b83caa4cefdab4d762f837c8fc419 Account ID: 0xe4ca06e861f511314e67a7b7c423a4d4071b83caa4cefdab4d762f837c8fc419 Public key (SS58): 5HEgnjsWx8mpBtkMf4dngQB1FrhAWrqdJnh6P4pgUpstv19j SS58 Address: 5HEgnjsWx8mpBtkMf4dngQB1FrhAWrqdJnh6P4pgUpstv19j

Keep the secret seeds for later.

Both nodes should appear in [telemetry](https://telemetry.joystream.org/#list/KPI35.OP-3).

It is a good idea to run each as a [systemd service](https://github.com/Joystream/helpdesk/tree/master/roles/validators#run-as-a-service).

### Pioneer

At least one node has to be accessible (`--rpc-cors all`) via pioneer which requires generation of a TLS certificate for that instance: [pioneer.Dockerfile](https://github.com/Joystream/joystream/blob/giza/pioneer.Dockerfile) ([giza](https://github.com/Joystream/joystream/tree/giza/pioneer) branch): https://staging.joystreamstats.live (endpoint: `wss://staging.joystreamstats.live/endpoint`).

Add keys in pioneer using the secret seed in the `Raw seed` field. It has 100 M to get started.

![Add endowed key](add_endowed_key.png)

### Staking

> 2. Add more stake to the validators/add more validators.

- Added a third validator and transferred 1 M from the endowed address (see *Generate chain spec* above):
https://staging.joystreamstats.live/#/explorer/query/1087
- Bonded 100K with it (`5DqWVKZBXdfRQjQprqM41imHiGTD4XXTA99uynHPm6Dqs5y3`): https://staging.joystreamstats.live/#/explorer/query/1103

> 3. Note down the EXACT stakes and issuance for a couple of eras, then change the values

To easily get all stakes for all eras, open https://staging.joystreamstats.live/#/js and enter:

api.query.staking.erasStakers.entries().then( stakers=>stakers.map(([key,stake])=> console.log(key.toHuman() ,stake)) )

The result will look like:

[1, 5FR1wbKDzPmU98G1qLbGagCyYsJjuGG9qcXDSGFzgwQqaC5x] {total: 5000, own: 5000, others: []} [1, 5GRYbWSMBsYYhEPfXX3D63mWYJcCmLwtNhrRz3VPhtRMfByG] {total: 5000, own: 5000, others: []} [2, 5FR1wbKDzPmU98G1qLbGagCyYsJjuGG9qcXDSGFzgwQqaC5x] {total: 5000, own: 5000, others: []} [2, 5GRYbWSMBsYYhEPfXX3D63mWYJcCmLwtNhrRz3VPhtRMfByG] {total: 5000, own: 5000, others: []} [0, 5FR1wbKDzPmU98G1qLbGagCyYsJjuGG9qcXDSGFzgwQqaC5x] {total: 5000, own: 5000, others: []} [0, 5GRYbWSMBsYYhEPfXX3D63mWYJcCmLwtNhrRz3VPhtRMfByG] {total: 5000, own: 5000, others: []}


Or to compare total stake, issuance and rewards:

for (let era = +(await api.query.staking.currentEra()); era >= 0; --era) { const stake = await api.query.staking.erasTotalStake(era) const reward = await api.query.staking.erasValidatorReward(era) const issuance = await api.query.balances.totalIssuance() const percent = (100 * stake / issuance).toFixed(1) console.log(era ${era} stake:${stake} issuance:${issuance} (${percent}%) reward:${reward}) }


> The key is to test with a stake ratio lower, higher and at the ideal one.

Raised the stake from 0% to 25% and 5M more a little later:

era 0 stake:10000 issuance:100010000 (0.0%) reward:572 era 1 stake:10000 issuance:100010000 (0.0%) reward:572 era 2 stake:10000 issuance:100010000 (0.0%) reward:572 era 3 stake:110000 issuance:100010000 (0.1%) reward:599 era 4 stake:25109999 issuance:100010000 (25.1%) reward:7242 era 5 stake:30110000 issuance:100010000 (30.1%) reward:8425


## Runtime Upgrade

> 4. Upgrade the runtime, and re-do 3.

The instructions do not make suggestions in what direction to change the parameters. As a guess JSG is interested to lower validator rewards. For this a reduction of the yearly inflation to 25% and of the ideal stake to 10% should work. Alternatively ideal stake could be set to 100% knowing that staking (validators) competes with council elections.

With the successful upgrade the ideal stake was at 10% and the reward dropped as expected:

era 44 stake:30110000 issuance:100010000 (30.1%) reward:8425 era 45 stake:30110000 issuance:100010000 (30.1%) reward:710 era 46 stake:30110000 issuance:100010000 (30.1%) reward:710 era 47 stake:30110000 issuance:100010000 (30.1%) reward:710 era 48 stake:5110000 issuance:100010000 (5.1%) reward:1733


By reducing total stake by 25M the reward recovered from 710 (25%) to 1733 (60%). Note that the maximum era payout changed from 8500 to 2847 (33%) because the inflation was cut to 1/3.

After [reporting to JSG](https://discord.com/channels/811216481340751934/922174266215116860/922822456929038389) the [change](https://github.com/Joystream/joystream/pull/2955) was added to [added to giza-staging](https://github.com/Joystream/joystream/pull/2957):

max_inflation: 0_750_000,

ideal_stake: 0_300_000, + max_inflation: 0_150_000, + ideal_stake: 0_250_000,


This will reduce individual validator rewards for `giza` to 1/5 ($8/m) with weekly platform costs around 6M ($150).

> 5. Let the chain for a couple of days, and try to:
- make changes to the validator set
- add a couple more validators, then turn off two, and have them kicked out for a couple eras before restarting them
- make some random transactions (balance, forum, content, etc.)

To run a validator, use this [chain spec](https://joystreamstats.live/static/kpi35op3_spec.json).

**Quickstart:**

wget https://joystreamstats.live/static/joystream-node wget https://joystreamstats.live/static/kpi35op3_spec.json chmod +x joystream-node ./joystream-node --chain kpi35op3_spec.json --validator --pruning archive --log runtime,txpool,transaction-pool,trace=sync

The runtime upgrade at block 85190 was unrelated to this KPI. If you are interested to test it, see you in #operations.

### Code

Script to generate the table:

const head = await api.derive.chain.bestNumber() for (let block = 0 ; block < head ; block += 600) { const hash = await api.rpc.chain.getBlockHash(block) const era = +(await api.query.staking.currentEra.at(hash)) const issuance = await api.query.balances.totalIssuance.at(hash) const stake = await api.query.staking.erasTotalStake(era) const reward = await api.query.staking.erasValidatorReward(era) const percent = (100 * stake / issuance).toFixed(1) console.log(| ${block} | ${era} | ${issuance} | ${stake} | ${percent} | ${reward} | |) } ```
