Jimmy Chen ade55a26f2 Fix Gloas EF test failures and add test exclusions (#8687)
* Added gloas exclusion to `FinalityHandler`

* Fix Gloas EF test failures and add test exclusions

- Fix execution_payload_availability initialization in fork upgrade
to set all bits to true per spec (was all zeros)
- Fix minimal spec gloas_fork_version: [0x07,0x00,0x00,0x01] (was 0x00)
- Fix payload attestation signature domain to use get_domain instead
of compute_domain with genesis fork version
- Add proposer slashing handler to clear builder_pending_payment per
EIP-7732 spec
- Add Gloas test exclusions for unimplemented functionality:
- sanity_blocks, sanity_slots, random, transition, finality handlers
- deposit_request operation (requires builder deposit functionality)
- Python exclusions for check_all_files_accessed.py

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Delete everything (make clean). Good for updating to a new version, or if you no longer wish to run the EF tests.
