Issue Addressed
Closes #6121:
Proposed Changes
The
syncingfield of/eth/v1/node/syncingwould befalsewhen sync is stalled (e.g. due to 0 peers). I think the intention of the API is to showsyncing: falseonly when the node is fully synced, so it is better if we returnsyncing: truefor a stall.In terms of liveness (e.g. a network where all BNs are stalled), the validator client will try requests even if its BN indicates that it is stalled. It might just try those BNs less preferentially.
Additional Info
