EIP-7840: Add blob schedule to execution client configuration files

EIPs EIPs core

Adds a new object to the EL genesis chain config:

of the shape:

"blobSchedule": {
  "prague": { "target": 6, "max": 9 },
  "osaka":   { "target": 12, "max": 16},
  ...
}

Is the genesis chain config specified anywhere? I don’t think it is standardized anywhere but most clients need to import the same config, so I guess this naturally evolves to some kind of standard config file?

Maybe it would be a good idea to specify these genesis / chain spec files somewhere (if this is not yet done) then additions to this config file can then be added to this specification.

it isn’t defined officially anywhere AFAIK.

I think we should spec it out. What would be a good location for this spec?

It’s tough because EIPs aren’t the best suited for specs that are change regularly. We’ve gotten around this for the RPC by creating execution-specs repo. I think something like genesis-specs might be the right way. I would probably check with the ethpandaops team as they are kinda the premiere genesis creator / consumer.

Cool, I was thinking along the same lines, something like execution-apis or execution-specs comes close but does not feel like the right place. I agree that a new repo like genesis-specs would be the “right” place for this. I’ll contact ethpandaops sometime in the near future about this.
