Pectra testing call #5, 16 September 2024

Summary

Update by @parithosh (from Eth R&D Discord )

pectra:
eof :
  • Testing is going well and more clients are achieving readiness for a devnet
  • Devnet would depend on fork split decision, likely at ACD this week
  • We’d do interleaved devnets, so eof-devnet-0… and a decision needs to be made if its done as prague or as osaka
  • We’d need to be careful not to trigger the same bugs as pectra devnets to reduce debugging overhead. One approach would be to remove the faucet (we plan this for peerDAS), but the downside is that EOF would benefit a lot from public testing
peerDAS :
  • Update on local devnet and its issues
  • Lodestar endianness bug
  • Public devnets once local issues are triaged
  • Devnet cycle would depend on fork split decision made likely during ACD this week
fuzzing :
  • Marius would focus on pectra fuzzing and bad block generators (also open call for other clients to implement this and take some load off of him/speed up the fork)
general :
  • We had a brief temp check on fork splitting and what open tasks that would make shipping quickly a blocker
