## Introduction
|
||
|
|
||
|
This document represents the changes to be made in the code of an "honest validator" to implement the EIP-4788 feature.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Prerequisites
|
||
|
|
||
|
This document is an extension of the [Capella -- Honest Validator](../capella/validator.md) guide.
|
||
|
All behaviors and definitions defined in this document, and documents it extends, carry over unless explicitly noted or overridden.
|
||
|
|
||
|
All terminology, constants, functions, and protocol mechanics defined in the updated Beacon Chain doc of [Capella](../capella/beacon-chain.md) are requisite for this document and used throughout.
|
||
|
Please see related Beacon Chain doc before continuing and use them as a reference throughout.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Helpers
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Protocols
|
||
|
|
||
|
### `ExecutionEngine`
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### `get_payload`
|
||
|
|
||
|
`get_payload` returns the upgraded EIP-4788 `ExecutionPayload` type.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Beacon chain responsibilities
|
||
|
|
||
|
All validator responsibilities remain unchanged other than those noted below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Block proposal
|
||
|
|
||
|
#### Constructing the `BeaconBlockBody`
|
||
|
|
||
|
##### ExecutionPayload
|
||
|
|
||
|
`ExecutionPayload`s are constructed as they were in Capella, except that the parent beacon block root is also supplied.
|
||
|
|
||
|
*Note*: In this section, `state` is the state of the slot for the block proposal _without_ the block yet applied.
|
||
|
That is, `state` is the `previous_state` processed through any empty slots up to the assigned slot using `process_slots(previous_state, slot)`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
*Note*: The only change made to `prepare_execution_payload` is to add the parent beacon block root as an additional
|
||
|
parameter to the `PayloadAttributes`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```python
|
||
|
def prepare_execution_payload(state: BeaconState,
|
||
|
pow_chain: Dict[Hash32, PowBlock],
|
||
|
safe_block_hash: Hash32,
|
||
|
finalized_block_hash: Hash32,
|
||
|
suggested_fee_recipient: ExecutionAddress,
|
||
|
execution_engine: ExecutionEngine) -> Optional[PayloadId]:
|
||
|
if not is_merge_transition_complete(state):
|
||
|
is_terminal_block_hash_set = TERMINAL_BLOCK_HASH != Hash32()
|
||
|
is_activation_epoch_reached = get_current_epoch(state) >= TERMINAL_BLOCK_HASH_ACTIVATION_EPOCH
|
||
|
if is_terminal_block_hash_set and not is_activation_epoch_reached:
|
||
|
# Terminal block hash is set but activation epoch is not yet reached, no prepare payload call is needed
|
||
|
return None
|
||
|
|
||
|
terminal_pow_block = get_terminal_pow_block(pow_chain)
|
||
|
if terminal_pow_block is None:
|
||
|
# Pre-merge, no prepare payload call is needed
|
||
|
return None
|
||
|
# Signify merge via producing on top of the terminal PoW block
|
||
|
parent_hash = terminal_pow_block.block_hash
|
||
|
else:
|
||
|
# Post-merge, normal payload
|
||
|
parent_hash = state.latest_execution_payload_header.block_hash
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Set the forkchoice head and initiate the payload build process
|
||
|
payload_attributes = PayloadAttributes(
|
||
|
timestamp=compute_timestamp_at_slot(state, state.slot),
|
||
|
prev_randao=get_randao_mix(state, get_current_epoch(state)),
|
||
|
suggested_fee_recipient=suggested_fee_recipient,
|
||
|
withdrawals=get_expected_withdrawals(state),
|
||
|
parent_beacon_block_root=hash_tree_root(state.latest_block_header), # [New in EIP-4788]
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
return execution_engine.notify_forkchoice_updated(
|
||
|
head_block_hash=parent_hash,
|
||
|
safe_block_hash=safe_block_hash,
|
||
|
finalized_block_hash=finalized_block_hash,
|
||
|
payload_attributes=payload_attributes,
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
```
