Transaction and BlockHeader already updated in nim-eth repo
to support EIP-1559
EIP-1559 header validation and gasLimit validation
already implemented in previous commit
This commit deals with block validation:
- Effective gasPrice per EIP-1559
- new miner reward based on priorityFee
Previously max gas refunded was defined as gas_used div 2.
Here we name the constant 2 as MAX_REFUND_QUOTIENT and
change its value to 5.
The new equation will be: gas_used div MAX_REFUND_QUOTIENT
SSTORE_CLEARS_SCHEDULE or FeeSchedule[RefundsClear] in evm
have initial value of 15_000 when introduced by EIP-2200.
EIP-2200 also set new value for SSTORE_RESET_GAS
from 5000 to to 5000 - COLD_SLOAD_COST
Now with EIP-3529, SSTORE_CLEARS_SCHEDULE beecome
SSTORE_RESET_GAS + ACCESS_LIST_STORAGE_KEY_COST
or 5000 - COLD_SLOAD_COST + ACCESS_LIST_STORAGE_KEY_COST
of 5000 - 2100 + 1900 = 4800
This preparation is needed for subsequent
EIPs included in London.
- Add London to Fork enum
- Block number to fork
- Parsing London fork in chain config
- Prepare gas costs table for London
- Prepare EVM opcode dispatcher for London
- Block rewards for London
- Prepare hive script for London
* continue importing rlp blocks
why:
a chain of blocks to be imported might have legit blocks
after rejected blocks
details:
import loop only stops if the import list is exhausted or if there
was a decoding error. this adds another four to the count of successful
no-hive tests.
* verify DAO marked extra data field in block header
why:
was ignored, scores another two no-hive tests
* verify minimum required difficulty in header validator
why:
two more nohive tests to succeed
details:
* subsumed extended header tests under validateKinship() and renamed it
more appropriately validateHeaderAndKinship()
* enhanced readability of p2p/chain.nim
* cleaned up test_blockchain_json.nim
* verify positive gasUsed unless no transactions
why:
solves another to nohive tests
details:
straightened test_blockchain_json chech so there is no unconditional
rejection anymore (based on the input test scenario)
* Re-adjust canonical head to parent of block to be inserted
why:
of the failing tests that remain to be solved, 30 of those will succeed
if the canonical database chain head is cleverly adjusted -- yes, it
looks like a hack, indeed.
details:
at the moment, this hack works for the non-hive tests only and is
triggered by a boolean argument passed on to the chain.persistBlocks()
method.
* Use parent instead of canonical head for block to be inserted
why:
side chains need to be inserted typically somewhere before the
canonical head.
details:
the previous _hack_ was unnecessary and removed, it was inspired by
some verification in persistBlocks() which explicitly referenced the
canonical head (which now might or might not refer to the newly inserted
header.)
* remove unnecessary code + comment
why:
some handy features were intended to support the unit test from
the clique/clique_test.go source (the other one is from
clique/snapshot_test.go.)
as this test cannot realistically be implemented without the full
api (includes mining support), it is left as that
Proper nested call functionality is being skipped in this iteration of new EVMC
host code to keep it simpler, to allow testing and architecture to be built
around the less complicated non-nested cases first.
Instead, nested calls use the old `Computation` path, and bypass any
third-party EVM that may be loaded. The results are the same, and mixing
different EVMs in this way is actually permitted in the EVMC specification.
This approach also means third-party EVMs we test don't need to support
precompiles and we don't need to specially handle those cases.
(E.g. "evmone" doesn't support precompiles, just EVM1 opcodes).
(These before/after scope actions are approximately copy-pasted from
`nimbus/vm/evmc_host.nim`, making their detailed behaviour "obviously correct".
Of course they are subject to tests as well. The small stack property of
a3c8a5c3 "EVMC: Small stacks when using EVMC, closes#575 (segfaults)" is
carefully retained.)

Make the host service `setStorage` calculate the gas refund itself, instead of
depending on EVM internals.
In EVMC, host `setStorage` is responsible for adding the gas refund using the
rules of EIP-1283 (Constantinople), EIP-2200 (Istanbul) or EIP-2929 (Berlin).
It is not obvious that the host must do it from EVMC documentation, but it's
how it has to be. Note, this is very different from the gas _cost_, which the
host does not calculate.
Gas refund doesn't affect computation. It is applied after the whole
transaction is complete, so it can be tracked on the host or EVM side. But
`setStorage` doesn't return enough information for the EVM to calculate the
refund, so the host must do it when `setStorage` is used.
For now, this continues using Nimbus `Computation` just to hold the gas refund,
to fit around existing structures and get new EVMC working. But the host can't
keep using `Computation`, so gas refund will be moved out of it in due course.

When processing log operations on the EVMC host side, it causes incorrect
`rootHash` results in some tests. This patch fixes the results.
The cause of these results is known: `Computation` is still doing parts of
contract scope entry/exit which need to be moved to the host. For now, as a
temporary workaround, update logs in `Computation` as it did before.
This makes test pass when using Nimbus EVM. (It breaks third-party EVMs when
`LOG*` ops are used, although most other tests pass.)
We can't keep this as it prevents complete host/EVM separation, but it's useful
in the current code, and it's fine to develop other functionality on top.

In the unusual case where log data is zero-length, `data[0].addr` is invalid
and Nim thoughtfully raises `IndexOutOfBounds`, a `Defect` so it's not even
in `CatchableError`.
This is done in the EVMC host services to handle `LOG*` ops, and it made one
of the EVM tests silently fail with no error message. The fix is obvious.

Show calls from the host into the EVM. Shows the call, `evmc_message` fields,
and `evmc_result` fields when the call returns.

Signed-off-by: Jamie Lokier <jamie@shareable.org>
When `show_tx_calls` is manually set to true, show all the calls from the EVM
to the host, including name, arguments and results.
For example this shows each call to `setStorage`, the key, value and storage
result. This output allows the externally-visible activity of an EVM to be
seen, and it's been useful for guessing what went wrong when a test fails.
In theory, if two EVMs show the same activity in this log, they should have the
same effect on account states, gas, etc. and the same final `roothash`
(which is the only value some tests check).
ps. Ideally we'd use `{.push show.}`...`{.pop.}`, just like with `inline`.

New pragma `{.show.}` on a proc definition turns on tracing for that proc.
Every call to it shows the name, arguments and results, if `show_tx_calls` is
manually set to true. This is to trace calls from EVM to host.
This started as a template which took a block expression, but the closure it
used led to illegal capture errors. It was easier to write a macro.

1. Send all EVM executions through the EVMC `execute` function.
It leads to the same place in the end as calling `Computation` before, but
`execute` is the API function used by all EVMC implementations, and it is
very explicit what data is passed back and forth.
2. As a consequence this starts using the new `host_services` code from EVM, so
this is a significant change to the paths used for account state processing.
3. Because we will have to remove the `newComputation` call on the host side,
anticipating that the contract code is now saved in `host` instead of being
copied around. As it's saved in `host`, there is no need to pass it
separately to `evmcExecComputation`.

This provides the functions a loadable VM must provide for a host to use it.
The main access to a loaded EVM is `evmc_create_nimbus_evm`, and this meant to
be the only exported function the caller starts with.
That provides access to other functions, also defined in this patch, to
configure the EVM and then the key interesting function is `execute`.
`execute` runs a full computation, here using Nimbus EVM `Computation`.
(Note, even though everything is EVMC binary-compatible, there is a small
dependency on `TransactionHost` in `execute` here, which prevents this being
used by a host that is not Nimbus at the moment. It is necessary for some
tests, and will eventually go away.)
Although this provides the VM-side functionality needed by the host, it does
not contain the glue functions for `Computation` to call the host, which are
already part of the Nimbus EVM in `nimbus/vm/evmc_api.nim`.

1. This provides the necessary type adjustments for host services to be
(optionally) callable via the EVMC binary-compatible interface. This layer
is stashed away in a glue module so the host services continue to use
appropriate Nim types, and are still callable directly.
Inlining is used to ensure there should be no real overhead, including stack
frame size for the `call` function. Note, `import` must be used for
`{.inline.}` to work effectively.
2. This also provides a key call in the other direction, the version of host to
EVM `execute` that is called on the host side.

This provides "host services", functions provided by the application to an EVM.
They are a key part of EVMC compatibility, but we will switch to using these
with "native" EVM as well.
These are functions like `getStorage`, `setStorage` and `emitLog` for accessing
the account state, because the EVM is not allowed direct access to the database.
This code is adapted from `nimbus/vm/evmc_host.nim` and other places, but there
is more emphasis on being host-side only, no dependency on the EVM or
`Computation` type. It uses `TransactionHost` and types in `host_types`.
These host services have two goals: To be compatible with EVMC, and to be a
good way for the Nimbus EVM to access the data it needs. In our new Nimbus
internal architecture, the EVM will only access the databases and other
application state via these host service functions.
The reason for containing the EVM like this, even "native" EVM, is that having
one good interface to the data makes it a lot easier to change how the database
works, which is on the roadmap.
These functions almost have EVMC signatures, but they are not binary compatible
with EVMC. (Binary compatibility is provided by another module). It would be
fine for Nimbus EVM to call these functions directly when linked directly.

Block validation failure isn't an error, it's correct rejection of a bad block
from the network. All conditions that lead to block rejection return a simple
boolean.
When a block is rejected, most reasons log at `debug` level. Only `stateRoot`
mismatch shouts a loud, highlighted, multi-line error message with big red
`error` alert.
Historically this was to assist EVM development, because it was more likely to
be a Nimbus EVM bug than a real bad block. But now the EVM is in good shape,
has a large and thorough testsuite, and `stateRoot` mismatch is more likely to
be a real bad block that should be rejected with less fuss.
If there's a genuine EVM bug, we'll still get an alert: Consensus failure will
quickly become obvious, and the block where it happens is easily fetched.
So a big, loud error is no longer useful, and it became a problem during tests.
Recently a few hundred tests were added that trigger it, and now successful
test output is filled with attention-grabbing errors which aren't really errors
or particularly useful.
Since it's not really an error, the original motivation is now backwards, and
other reasons warn at `debug` level, make this like the others.

Many places outside the EVM use `Fork` and the fork list, and in general we
want progressively fewer dependencies on EVM internal types and files.
This may prove to be a temporary location, especially when we implement
issue #640. But it's a fine temporary location if so.

The current EVM generates its own new contract addresses, and this is why there
are separate `msg.contractAddress` and `msg.codeAddress` fields in the
computation start message.
In EVMC, account updates are only allowed on the host side, including contract
generation, and the start message has one destination field, `msg.destination`.
The EVM cannot select addresses, only use them. It's a sensible design.
The difference makes the current EVM incompatible with EVMC and its message
format, so this patch corrects the difference. It moves contract address
generation to the host side. This simplifies the EVM and its API a little.
(As an API change, this is incompatible with vm2, so it's guarded under
`evmc_enabled` to allow vm2 to continue to build and run at this time. This is
also why there are fewer deletions than would otherwise be expected.)

The rationale in EIP-6[1] for changing names to `selfDestruct` applies to code
as much as it does to specs. Also, Ethereum uses the new names consistently,
so it's useful for our code to match the terms used in later EIP specs and
testsuite entries.
This change is straightforward, and is a prerequisite for patches to come that
do things with the `selfDestruct` fields.
