Liam Aharon 12ce4f7d04 Runtime Upgrade ref docs and Single Block Migration example pallet (#1554)
Closes https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk-docs/issues/55

- Changes 'current storage version' terminology to less ambiguous
'in-code storage version' (suggestion by @ggwpez)
- Adds a new example pallet `pallet-example-single-block-migrations`
- Adds a new reference doc to replace
https://docs.substrate.io/maintain/runtime-upgrades/ (temporarily living
in the pallet while we wait for developer hub PR to merge)
- Adds documentation for the `storage_alias` macro
- Improves `trait Hooks` docs 
- Improves `trait GetStorageVersion` docs
- Update the suggested patterns for using `VersionedMigration`, so that
version unchecked migrations are never exported
- Prevents accidental usage of version unchecked migrations in runtimes

https://github.com/paritytech/substrate/pull/14421#discussion_r1255467895
- Unversioned migration code is kept inside `mod version_unchecked`,
versioned code is kept in `pub mod versioned`
- It is necessary to use modules to limit visibility because the inner
migration must be `pub`. See
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/30905 and

https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/lang-team-minutes-private-in-public-rules/4504/40
for more.

### todo

- [x] move to reference docs to proper place within sdk-docs (now that
https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2102 is merged)
- [x] prdoc

I'm online Module

If the local node is a validator (i.e. contains an authority key), this module gossips a heartbeat transaction with each new session. The heartbeat functions as a simple mechanism to signal that the node is online in the current era.

Received heartbeats are tracked for one era and reset with each new era. The module exposes two public functions to query if a heartbeat has been received in the current era or session.

The heartbeat is a signed transaction, which was signed using the session key and includes the recent best block number of the local validators chain as well as the NetworkState. It is submitted as an Unsigned Transaction via off-chain workers.

Interface

Public Functions

  • is_online - True if the validator sent a heartbeat in the current session.

Usage

use pallet_im_online::{self as im_online};

#[frame_support::pallet]
pub mod pallet {
    use super::*;
    use frame_support::pallet_prelude::*;
    use frame_system::pallet_prelude::*;

    #[pallet::pallet]
    pub struct Pallet<T>(_);

    #[pallet::config]
    pub trait Config: frame_system::Config + im_online::Config {}

    #[pallet::call]
    impl<T: Config> Pallet<T> {
        #[pallet::weight(0)]
        pub fn is_online(origin: OriginFor<T>, authority_index: u32) -> DispatchResult {
            let _sender = ensure_signed(origin)?;
            let _is_online = <im_online::Pallet<T>>::is_online(authority_index);
            Ok(())
        }
    }
}

Dependencies

This module depends on the Session module.
