Motivation
EIP-7685 adds an EL → CL request list. The list items are requests, which are encoded as
type ++ request_data
, whererequest_data
is an opaque byte buffer. The meaning of the bytes is up to each request, which are defined in separate EIPs.Solution
Add traits for encoding and decoding requests. This follows the same overall design as our traits for EIP-2718, with the difference being that EIP-2718 also has special handling for legacy transactions.
The expected usage is to define something a la
TxEnvelope
, e.g.RequestsEnvelope
, which is an enum that internally holds each legal request type. The requests themselves are decoded and encoded according to their own EIPs, e.g. with RLP.PR Checklist
