Michael Sproul 95b99ee724 Spec v1.7.0 alpha.3 (#8988 )

Update spec code for compliance with spec v1.7.0-alpha.3: https://github.com/ethereum/consensus-specs/releases/tag/v1.7.0-alpha.3

The actual consensus changes are minimal. There are few more changes that are only relevant to fork choice or P2P validation that we will pick up in future PRs.

The change "Ignore beacon block if parent payload unknown" is currently covered in a hacky way by `load_parent` and can be improved once we have fork choice.

The change "Add parent_block_root to bid filtering key" is relevant to bid gossip validation, which we don't have at all in unstable yet.

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-run make or 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-run make it 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.
