Here we add a Go API for running tracing plugins within the main block import process.
As an advanced user of geth, you can now create a Go file in eth/tracers/live/, and within
that file register your custom tracer implementation. Then recompile geth and select your tracer
on the command line. Hooks defined in the tracer will run whenever a block is processed.
The hook system is defined in package core/tracing. It uses a struct with callbacks, instead of
requiring an interface, for several reasons:
- We plan to keep this API stable long-term. The core/tracing hook API does not depend on
on deep geth internals.
- There are a lot of hooks, and tracers will only need some of them. Using a struct allows you
to implement only the hooks you want to actually use.
All existing tracers in eth/tracers/native have been rewritten to use the new hook system.
This change breaks compatibility with the vm.EVMLogger interface that we used to have.
If you are a user of vm.EVMLogger, please migrate to core/tracing, and sorry for breaking
your stuff. But we just couldn't have both the old and new tracing APIs coexist in the EVM.

This change makes use of uin256 to represent balance in state. It touches primarily upon statedb, stateobject and state processing, trying to avoid changes in transaction pools, core types, rpc and tracers.
The EIP150Hash was an idea where, after the fork, we hardcoded the forked hash as an extra defensive mechanism. It wasn't really used, since forks weren't contentious and for all the various testnets and private networks it's been a hassle to have around.
This change removes that config field.

This PR removes the Debug field from vmconfig, making it so that if a tracer is set, debug=true is implied.

This PR fixes OOM panic in the callTracer as well as panicing on
opcode validation errors (e.g. stack underflow) in callTracer and
prestateTracer.

This removes the 'time' field from logs, as well as from the tracer interface. This change makes the trace output deterministic. If a tracer needs the time they can measure it themselves. No need for evm to do this.

This PR allows users to pass in a config object directly to the tracers. Previously only the struct logger was configurable.
It also adds an option to the call tracer which if enabled makes it ignore any subcall and collect only information about the top-level call. See #25419 for discussion.
The tracers will silently ignore if they are passed a config they don't care about.
#23773 added a JS tracer which uses Goja as its engine. In this PR I remove the previous tracer which used duktape as well as remove the dependencies.
This PR also comes with 2 fixes in the Goja tracer and one small behavioural change:
I had handled errors in the native Go functions by panicing. My oversight was that Goja only handles panics with a Goja.Value as argument. The difference is panic(goja.Value) allows JS to catch the exception whereas Interrupt(error) doesn't.
There was a race in how I handled Stop.
Because of 1. some of the methods that simply return nil on error (like memory.slice) now throw an exception.
This adds a JS tracer runtime environment based on the Goja VM. The new
runtime replaces the duktape runtime, which will be removed soon.
Goja is implemented in Go and is faster for cases where the Go <-> JS
transition overhead dominates overall performance. It is faster because
duktape is written in C, and the transition cost includes the cost of using
cgo. Another reason for using Goja is that go-duktape is not maintained
anymore.
We expect the performace of JS tracing to be at least as good or better with
this change.

This change introduces 2 new optional methods; `enter()` and `exit()` for js tracers, and makes `step()` optiona. The two new methods are invoked when entering and exiting a call frame (but not invoked for the outermost scope, which has it's own methods). Currently these are the data fields passed to each of them:
enter: type (opcode), from, to, input, gas, value
exit: output, gasUsed, error
The PR also comes with a re-write of the callTracer. As a backup we keep the previous tracing script under the name `callTracerLegacy`. Behaviour of both tracers are equivalent for the most part, although there are some small differences (improvements), where the new tracer is more correct / has more information.
* core,eth/tracers: make isPrecompiled dependent on HF
* eth/tracers: use keys when constructing chain config struct
* eth/tracers: dont initialize activePrecompiles with random value
Fixes the CaptureStart api to include the EVM, thus being able to set the statedb early on. This pr also exposes the struct we used internally in the interpreter to encapsulate the contract, mem, stack, rstack, so we pass it as a single struct to the tracer, and removes the error returns on the capture methods.
* all: core: split vm.Config into BlockConfig and TxConfig
* core: core/vm: reset EVM between tx in block instead of creating new
* core/vm: added docs
This adds the global accumulated refund counter to the standard
json output as a numeric json value. Previously this was not very
interesting since it was not used much, but with the new sstore
gas changes the value is a lot more interesting from a consensus
investigation perspective.
Makes Interface interface a bit more stateless and abstract.
Obviously this change is dictated by EVMC design. The EVMC tries to keep the responsibility for EVM features totally inside the VMs, if feasible. This makes VM "stateless" because VM does not need to pass any information between executions, all information is included in parameters of the execute function.
This commit is a preparation for the upcoming metropolis hardfork. It
prepares the state, core and vm packages such that integration with
metropolis becomes less of a hassle.
* Difficulty calculation requires header instead of individual
parameters
* statedb.StartRecord renamed to statedb.Prepare and added Finalise
method required by metropolis, which removes unwanted accounts from
the state (i.e. selfdestruct)
* State keeps record of destructed objects (in addition to dirty
objects)
* core/vm pre-compiles may now return errors
* core/vm pre-compiles gas check now take the full byte slice as argument
instead of just the size
* core/vm now keeps several hard-fork instruction tables instead of a
single instruction table and removes the need for hard-fork checks in
the instructions
* core/vm contains a empty restruction function which is added in
preparation of metropolis write-only mode operations
* Adds the bn256 curve
* Adds and sets the metropolis chain config block parameters (2^64-1)
Reworked the EVM gas instructions to use 64bit integers rather than
arbitrary size big ints. All gas operations, be it additions,
multiplications or divisions, are checked and guarded against 64 bit
integer overflows.
In additon, most of the protocol paramaters in the params package have
been converted to uint64 and are now constants rather than variables.
* common/math: added overflow check ops
* core: vmenv, env renamed to evm
* eth, internal/ethapi, les: unmetered eth_call and cancel methods
* core/vm: implemented big.Int pool for evm instructions
* core/vm: unexported intPool methods & verification methods
* core/vm: added memoryGasCost overflow check and test

The run loop, which previously contained custom opcode executes have been
removed and has been simplified to a few checks.
Each operation consists of 4 elements: execution function, gas cost function,
stack validation function and memory size function. The execution function
implements the operation's runtime behaviour, the gas cost function implements
the operation gas costs function and greatly depends on the memory and stack,
the stack validation function validates the stack and makes sure that enough
items can be popped off and pushed on and the memory size function calculates
the memory required for the operation and returns it.
This commit also allows the EVM to go unmetered. This is helpful for offline
operations such as contract calls.
Environment is now a struct (not an interface). This
reduces a lot of tech-debt throughout the codebase where a virtual
machine environment had to be implemented in order to test or run it.
The new environment is suitable to be used en the json tests, core
consensus and light client.
This commit implements EIP158 part 1, 2, 3 & 4
1. If an account is empty it's no longer written to the trie. An empty
account is defined as (balance=0, nonce=0, storage=0, code=0).
2. Delete an empty account if it's touched
3. An empty account is redefined as either non-existent or empty.
4. Zero value calls and zero value suicides no longer consume the 25k
reation costs.
params: moved core/config to params

This implements 1b & 1c of EIP150 by adding a new GasTable which must be
returned from the RuleSet config method. This table is used to determine
the gas prices for the current epoch.
Please note that when the CreateBySuicide gas price is set it is assumed
that we're in the new epoch phase.
In addition this PR will serve as temporary basis while refactorisation
in being done in the EVM64 PR, which will substentially overhaul the gas
price code.
This commit replaces the deep-copy based state revert mechanism with a
linear complexity journal. This commit also hides several internal
StateDB methods to limit the number of ways in which calling code can
use the journal incorrectly.
As usual consultation and bug fixes to the initial implementation were
provided by @karalabe, @obscuren and @Arachnid. Thank you!
