Closes: - https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/8689 - Calculate the proposer index on the canonical chain (from canonical head) at `slot` and plumb it through to fork choice so it can be used to determine whether or not to apply the proposer boost. We use the proposer cache to handle state advances and avoid duplicate work. - Update our FC tests to use `block.message().proposer_index()` (always pass), we are not attempting to test this feature in those tests. The EF tests use the correct canonical proposer idnex via `on_block`, except for invalid blocks which just auto-pass this check (these blocks get rejected by other checks in `on_block` anyway).

Consensus Specification Tests
This crate parses and executes the test vectors at ethereum/consensus-spec-tests.
Functionality is achieved only via the $ cargo test --features ef_tests command.
Running the Tests
Because the test vectors are very large, we do not download or run them by default. To download them, run (in this directory):
$ make
Note: this may download hundreds of MB of compressed archives from the ethereum/consensus-spec-tests, which may expand into several GB of files.
If successful, you should now have the extracted tests in ./consensus-spec-tests.
Run them with:
$ cargo test --features ef_tests
The tests won't run without the ef_tests feature enabled (this is to ensure that a top-level
cargo test --all won't fail on missing files).
The following is sometimes necessary to avoid stack overflow issues when running on MacOS:
$ export RUST_MIN_STACK=8388608
When debugging failing tests, it's often useful to disable parallization and output suppression:
$ cargo test --features ef_tests,disable_rayon -- --nocapture
Saving Space
When you download the tests, the downloaded archives will be kept in addition to the extracted files. You have several options for saving space:
- Delete the archives (
make clean-archives), and keep the extracted files. Suitable for everyday use, just don't re-runmakeor it will redownload the archives. - Delete the extracted files (
make clean-test-files), and keep the archives. Suitable for CI, or temporarily saving space. If you re-runmakeit will extract the archives rather than redownloading them. - Delete everything (
make clean). Good for updating to a new version, or if you no longer wish to run the EF tests.
