ethereum-evm代码分析(v1.8.24)
1、引导
本篇为分析以太坊虚拟机部分的代码，但是为了大家方便理解，本次打算讲解一笔交易发送以太坊客户端，再到上链作为一个完整链路来分析，并把以太坊evm作为重点来讲解。
1.1 sendTx()
第一部分主要涉及交易池部分逻辑代码，不了解的部分请翻阅tx_pool代码分析部分
# go-ethereum/eth/api_backend.go
//当用户需要发送一笔交易时候，实际上是调用了以太坊客户端的sendTx方法
func (b *EthAPIBackend) SendTx(ctx context.Context, signedTx *types.Transaction) error {
// 调用以太坊交易池，将tx添加到本地交易列表中
return b.eth.txPool.AddLocal(signedTx)
}
// AddLocal enqueues a single transaction into the pool if it is valid, marking
// the sender as a local one in the mean time, ensuring it goes around the local
// pricing constraints.
func (pool *TxPool) AddLocal(tx *types.Transaction) error {
return pool.addTx(tx, !pool.config.NoLocals)
}
// addTx enqueues a single transaction into the pool if it is valid.
func (pool *TxPool) addTx(tx *types.Transaction, local bool) error {
pool.mu.Lock()
defer pool.mu.Unlock()
// 在此将交易放入交易池，若相同nonce的交易存在，那么尝试覆盖并广播交易
// 若是新交易则放入账户的queue中，如果账户queue中存在则覆盖，
// Try to inject the transaction and update any state
replace, err := pool.add(tx, local)
if err != nil {
return err
}
// 如果我们添加的是一笔新的交易，那么执行以下交易升级
// If we added a new transaction, run promotion checks and return
if !replace {
from, _ := types.Sender(pool.signer, tx) // already validated
pool.promoteExecutables([]common.Address{from})
}
return nil
}
从上面代码可以看出，用户发送交易到以太坊客户端，以太坊拿到客户端以后如何放入交易池的逻辑。
在上面逻辑执行以后若交易能进入pending列表，那么交易就会被广播，通过p2p模块广播给若干接点。
如交易没进入pending列表，进入了账户queue中，那么随后若交易正常，那么也会进入账户的pending列表中，并且会被广播。
若本地节点是挖矿节点则将交易打包成区块进行上链，那么下面转到挖矿部分代码，看看如何拿到交易进行执行
1.2 commitNewWork()
此部分为挖矿代码部分的主要代码部分，在这个期间，做了将pending里面的交易拿出来执行后打包到一个新区块中的工作。那么下面开始分析交易如何被拿出来执行的
// commitNewWork generates several new sealing tasks based on the parent block.
func (w *worker) commitNewWork(interrupt *int32, noempty bool, timestamp int64) {
............................
// 以上部分与本次分析相关性不大，忽略处理
// 下面从交易池拿出所有pending的交易
// Fill the block with all available pending transactions.
pending, err := w.eth.TxPool().Pending()
if err != nil {
log.Error("Failed to fetch pending transactions", "err", err)
return
}
// Short circuit if there is no available pending transactions
if len(pending) == 0 {
w.updateSnapshot()
return
}
// 将交易分为远程的和本地的交易
// Split the pending transactions into locals and remotes
localTxs, remoteTxs := make(map[common.Address]types.Transactions), pending
for _, account := range w.eth.TxPool().Locals() {
if txs := remoteTxs[account]; len(txs) > 0 {
delete(remoteTxs, account)
localTxs[account] = txs
}
}
if len(localTxs) > 0 {
txs := types.NewTransactionsByPriceAndNonce(w.current.signer, localTxs)
// 下面这一步主要是开始将交易进行执行了
if w.commitTransactions(txs, w.coinbase, interrupt) {
return
}
}
if len(remoteTxs) > 0 {
txs := types.NewTransactionsByPriceAndNonce(w.current.signer, remoteTxs)
if w.commitTransactions(txs, w.coinbase, interrupt) {
return
}
}
// 最后提交一个 区块
w.commit(uncles, w.fullTaskHook, true, tstart)
}
下面部分代码主要将需要打包在区块中的交易逐个执行，逻辑如下
func (w *worker) commitTransactions(txs *types.TransactionsByPriceAndNonce, coinbase common.Address, interrupt *int32) bool {
// Short circuit if current is nil
if w.current == nil {
return true
}
if w.current.gasPool == nil {
w.current.gasPool = new(core.GasPool).AddGas(w.current.header.GasLimit)
}
// 合并logs
var coalescedLogs []*types.Log
for {
// In the following three cases, we will interrupt the execution of the transaction.
// (1) new head block event arrival, the interrupt signal is 1
// (2) worker start or restart, the interrupt signal is 1
// (3) worker recreate the mining block with any newly arrived transactions, the interrupt signal is 2.
// For the first two cases, the semi-finished work will be discarded.
// For the third case, the semi-finished work will be submitted to the consensus engine.
if interrupt != nil && atomic.LoadInt32(interrupt) != commitInterruptNone {
// Notify resubmit loop to increase resubmitting interval due to too frequent commits.
if atomic.LoadInt32(interrupt) == commitInterruptResubmit {
ratio := float64(w.current.header.GasLimit-w.current.gasPool.Gas()) / float64(w.current.header.GasLimit)
if ratio < 0.1 {
ratio = 0.1
}
w.resubmitAdjustCh <- &intervalAdjust{
ratio: ratio,
inc: true,
}
}
return atomic.LoadInt32(interrupt) == commitInterruptNewHead
}
// 不能低于执行交易的最小gas 21000
// If we don't have enough gas for any further transactions then we're done
if w.current.gasPool.Gas() < params.TxGas {
log.Trace("Not enough gas for further transactions", "have", w.current.gasPool, "want", params.TxGas)
break
}
// 从txs里面拿出顶端的 gasPrice最小的
// Retrieve the next transaction and abort if all done
tx := txs.Peek()
if tx == nil {
break
}
// Error may be ignored here. The error has already been checked
// during transaction acceptance is the transaction pool.
//
// We use the eip155 signer regardless of the current hf.
from, _ := types.Sender(w.current.signer, tx)
// Check whether the tx is replay protected. If we're not in the EIP155 hf
// phase, start ignoring the sender until we do.
if tx.Protected() && !w.config.IsEIP155(w.current.header.Number) {
log.Trace("Ignoring reply protected transaction", "hash", tx.Hash(), "eip155", w.config.EIP155Block)
txs.Pop()
continue
}
// 准备开始执行交易
// Start executing the transaction
w.current.state.Prepare(tx.Hash(), common.Hash{}, w.current.tcount)
// 此段代码将涉及到交易执行，离虚拟机部分很近了
logs, err := w.commitTransaction(tx, coinbase)
// 以下部分与本次分析关系不大 ，忽略处理
............................................
}
commitTransaction()实际将交易传到了core.ApplyTransaction()，并将tx转换为一个message，并且在ApplyTransaction()构造了虚拟机的context，随后创建一个虚拟机，并调用ApplyMessage后调用TransitionDb()实际将交易执行，具体逻辑如下
// ApplyTransaction attempts to apply a transaction to the given state database
// and uses the input parameters for its environment. It returns the receipt
// for the transaction, gas used and an error if the transaction failed,
// indicating the block was invalid.
func ApplyTransaction(config *params.ChainConfig, bc ChainContext, author *common.Address, gp *GasPool, statedb *state.StateDB, header *types.Header, tx *types.Transaction, usedGas *uint64, cfg vm.Config) (*types.Receipt, uint64, error) {
msg, err := tx.AsMessage(types.MakeSigner(config, header.Number))
if err != nil {
return nil, 0, err
}
// Create a new context to be used in the EVM environment
context := NewEVMContext(msg, header, bc, author)
// Create a new environment which holds all relevant information
// about the transaction and calling mechanisms.
vmenv := vm.NewEVM(context, statedb, config, cfg)
// Apply the transaction to the current state (included in the env)
_, gas, failed, err := ApplyMessage(vmenv, msg, gp)
.............................................
}
// ApplyMessage computes the new state by applying the given message
// against the old state within the environment.
//
// ApplyMessage returns the bytes returned by any EVM execution (if it took place),
// the gas used (which includes gas refunds) and an error if it failed. An error always
// indicates a core error meaning that the message would always fail for that particular
// state and would never be accepted within a block.
func ApplyMessage(evm *vm.EVM, msg Message, gp *GasPool) ([]byte, uint64, bool, error) {
return NewStateTransition(evm, msg, gp).TransitionDb()
}
// TransitionDb will transition the state by applying the current message and
// returning the result including the used gas. It returns an error if failed.
// An error indicates a consensus issue.
func (st *StateTransition) TransitionDb() (ret []byte, usedGas uint64, failed bool, err error) {
// 做一次预检，主要做了nonce检查和账户余额检查
if err = st.preCheck(); err != nil {
return
}
msg := st.msg
sender := vm.AccountRef(msg.From())
homestead := st.evm.ChainConfig().IsHomestead(st.evm.BlockNumber)
// 如果本次tx的to地址为空则为合约创建交易
contractCreation := msg.To() == nil
// Pay intrinsic gas
gas, err := IntrinsicGas(st.data, contractCreation, homestead)
if err != nil {
return nil, 0, false, err
}
if err = st.useGas(gas); err != nil {
return nil, 0, false, err
}
var (
evm = st.evm
// vm errors do not effect consensus and are therefor
// not assigned to err, except for insufficient balance
// error.
vmerr error
)
if contractCreation {
// 如果是合约创建交易，则调用evm.create()方法
ret, _, st.gas, vmerr = evm.Create(sender, st.data, st.gas, st.value)
} else {
// 要不然调用合约的Call()方法执行交易,在这里先把evm当成黑盒，先知道这里是实际调用evm执行字节码即可
// Increment the nonce for the next transaction
st.state.SetNonce(msg.From(), st.state.GetNonce(sender.Address())+1)
ret, st.gas, vmerr = evm.Call(sender, st.to(), st.data, st.gas, st.value)
}
if vmerr != nil {
log.Debug("VM returned with error", "err", vmerr)
// The only possible consensus-error would be if there wasn't
// sufficient balance to make the transfer happen. The first
// balance transfer may never fail.
if vmerr == vm.ErrInsufficientBalance {
return nil, 0, false, vmerr
}
}
// 计算回退的gas
st.refundGas()
st.state.AddBalance(st.evm.Coinbase, new(big.Int).Mul(new(big.Int).SetUint64(st.gasUsed()), st.gasPrice))
return ret, st.gasUsed(), vmerr != nil, err
}
1.3 第一小节总结
经过上面主流程的分析以后，现在已经可以知道一笔交易发送到以太坊客户端以后经历了一系列操作后一直到需要虚拟机实际执行交易的部分。
2、以太坊虚拟机部分分析
下面按照惯例先介绍一下以太坊相关数据结构
# go-ethereum/core/vm/evm.go
// context是在执行一笔交易时候的附加信息，上下文环境
// Context provides the EVM with auxiliary information. Once provided
// it shouldn't be modified.
type Context struct {
// canTransfer函数用来判断是否可以执行转账，很简单
// CanTransfer returns whether the account contains
// sufficient ether to transfer the value
CanTransfer CanTransferFunc
// transfer函数用来执行转账的函数，很简单
// Transfer transfers ether from one account to the other
Transfer TransferFunc
// GetHash returns the hash corresponding to n
// 获取hash值函数
GetHash GetHashFunc
// 下面是交易执行的一些简要附加信息
// Message information
Origin common.Address // Provides information for ORIGIN
GasPrice *big.Int // Provides information for GASPRICE
// Block information
Coinbase common.Address // Provides information for COINBASE
GasLimit uint64 // Provides information for GASLIMIT
BlockNumber *big.Int // Provides information for NUMBER
Time *big.Int // Provides information for TIME
Difficulty *big.Int // Provides information for DIFFICULTY
}
//
// EVM is the Ethereum Virtual Machine base object and provides
// the necessary tools to run a contract on the given state with
// the provided context. It should be noted that any error
// generated through any of the calls should be considered a
// revert-state-and-consume-all-gas operation, no checks on
// specific errors should ever be performed. The interpreter makes
// sure that any errors generated are to be considered faulty code.
// Evm不能被重用且不是线程安全的，每一笔交易都会创建一个新的context和evm
// The EVM should never be reused and is not thread safe.
type EVM struct {
// Context provides auxiliary(辅助) blockchain related information
Context
// StateDB gives access to the underlying state
StateDB StateDB
// 当前调用栈的深度
// Depth is the current call stack
depth int
// chainConfig contains information about the current chain
chainConfig *params.ChainConfig
// chain rules contains the chain rules for the current epoch
chainRules params.Rules
// virtual machine configuration options used to initialise the
// evm.
vmConfig Config
// 解释器
// global (to this context) ethereum virtual machine
// used throughout the execution of the tx.
interpreters []Interpreter
interpreter Interpreter
// 原子操作
// abort is used to abort the EVM calling operations
// NOTE: must be set atomically
abort int32
// callGasTemp holds the gas available for the current call. This is needed because the
// available gas is calculated in gasCall* according to the 63/64 rule and later
// applied in opCall*.
callGasTemp uint64
}
// 虚拟机解释器
// EVMInterpreter represents an EVM interpreter
type EVMInterpreter struct {
evm *EVM
cfg Config
gasTable params.GasTable
intPool *intPool
hasher keccakState // Keccak256 hasher instance shared across opcodes
hasherBuf common.Hash // Keccak256 hasher result array shared aross opcodes
readOnly bool // Whether to throw on stateful modifications
returnData []byte // Last CALL's return data for subsequent reuse
}
// 以太坊操作结构体。以太坊定义了一个长度为256的operation数组来存放虚拟机操作，每一个操作有4个相关函数和6个标记位
type operation struct {
//实际执行函数
// execute is the operation function
execute executionFunc
// 计算执行花费的gas
// gasCost is the gas function and returns the gas required for execution
gasCost gasFunc
// 验证栈的函数，栈必须符合一定条件比如深度小于1024
// validateStack validates the stack (size) for the operation
validateStack stackValidationFunc
// 返回操作需要的内存大小
// memorySize returns the memory size required for the operation
memorySize memorySizeFunc
//操作标记位
halts bool // indicates whether the operation should halt further execution
jumps bool // indicates whether the program counter should not increment
writes bool // determines whether this a state modifying operation
valid bool // indication whether the retrieved operation is valid and known
reverts bool // determines whether the operation reverts state (implicitly halts)
returns bool // determines whether the operations sets the return data content
}
以上就是以太坊虚拟机相关的主要数据结构，下面开始介绍一些逻辑实现
2.1 go-ethereum/core/evm.go分析
# go-ethereum/core/evm.go
// 先介绍一个主要用来创建一些环境信息的逻辑代码
// 此函数主要用来为以太坊创建一个上下文环境
// NewEVMContext creates a new context for use in the EVM.
func NewEVMContext(msg Message, header *types.Header, chain ChainContext, author *common.Address) vm.Context {
// If we don't have an explicit author (i.e. not mining), extract from the header
// 受益人，也就是挖矿奖励所得者
var beneficiary common.Address
if author == nil {
beneficiary, _ = chain.Engine().Author(header) // Ignore error, we're past header validation
} else {
beneficiary = *author
}
// 实际就初始化了以太坊虚拟机执行的上下文环境
return vm.Context{
CanTransfer: CanTransfer,
Transfer: Transfer,
GetHash: GetHashFn(header, chain),
Origin: msg.From(),
Coinbase: beneficiary,
BlockNumber: new(big.Int).Set(header.Number),
Time: new(big.Int).SetUint64(header.Time),
Difficulty: new(big.Int).Set(header.Difficulty),
GasLimit: header.GasLimit,
GasPrice: new(big.Int).Set(msg.GasPrice()),
}
}
// 返回一个函数，返回的函数主要用区块号来取区块的hash值
// GetHashFn returns a GetHashFunc which retrieves header hashes by number
func GetHashFn(ref *types.Header, chain ChainContext) func(n uint64) common.Hash {
var cache map[uint64]common.Hash
return func(n uint64) common.Hash {
// 如果没有缓存，那么创建一个缓存，并将传来的区块头的父区块信息放入缓存
// If there's no hash cache yet, make one
if cache == nil {
cache = map[uint64]common.Hash{
ref.Number.Uint64() - 1: ref.ParentHash,
}
}
// 如果从缓存中找到相关区块号对应的区块hash，那么直接返回
// Try to fulfill the request from the cache
if hash, ok := cache[n]; ok {
return hash
}
// 要不然从给的区块往前推，逐个缓存区块号和区块hash，并且在找到要查询的区块号对应的区块hash时候返回
// Not cached, iterate the blocks and cache the hashes
for header := chain.GetHeader(ref.ParentHash, ref.Number.Uint64()-1); header != nil; header = chain.GetHeader(header.ParentHash, header.Number.Uint64()-1) {
cache[header.Number.Uint64()-1] = header.ParentHash
if n == header.Number.Uint64()-1 {
return header.ParentHash
}
}
return common.Hash{}
}
}
// 主要判断一下账户余额够不够转账
// CanTransfer checks whether there are enough funds in the address' account to make a transfer.
// This does not take the necessary gas in to account to make the transfer valid.
func CanTransfer(db vm.StateDB, addr common.Address, amount *big.Int) bool {
return db.GetBalance(addr).Cmp(amount) >= 0
}
// transfer主要执行了实际的转账操作，给发送者/接受者 减去/加上相应金额，此处的加减不是立即生效
// Transfer subtracts amount from sender and adds amount to recipient using the given Db
func Transfer(db vm.StateDB, sender, recipient common.Address, amount *big.Int) {
db.SubBalance(sender, amount)
db.AddBalance(recipient, amount)
}
以上主要是以太坊源代码core下面evm.go的主要逻辑分析，其实做了给以太坊虚拟机每次执行创建上下文环境一件事。
2.2 go-ethereum/core/vm/evm.go
下面开始分析以太坊虚拟机的核心文件，vm包下面的evm.go
2.2.1 NewEVM()
// 这是创建虚拟机的逻辑，执行交易时每次使用虚拟机都新创建一个
// NewEVM returns a new EVM. The returned EVM is not thread safe and should
// only ever be used *once*.
func NewEVM(ctx Context, statedb StateDB, chainConfig *params.ChainConfig, vmConfig Config) *EVM {
// 给evm属性初始化变量
evm := &EVM{
Context: ctx,
StateDB: statedb,
vmConfig: vmConfig,
chainConfig: chainConfig,
chainRules: chainConfig.Rules(ctx.BlockNumber),
interpreters: make([]Interpreter, 0, 1),
}
if chainConfig.IsEWASM(ctx.BlockNumber) {
// to be implemented by EVM-C and Wagon PRs.
// if vmConfig.EWASMInterpreter != "" {
// extIntOpts := strings.Split(vmConfig.EWASMInterpreter, ":")
// path := extIntOpts[0]
// options := []string{}
// if len(extIntOpts) > 1 {
// options = extIntOpts[1..]
// }
// evm.interpreters = append(evm.interpreters, NewEVMVCInterpreter(evm, vmConfig, options))
// } else {
// evm.interpreters = append(evm.interpreters, NewEWASMInterpreter(evm, vmConfig))
// }
panic("No supported ewasm interpreter yet.")
}
// 创建虚拟机解释器
// vmConfig.EVMInterpreter will be used by EVM-C, it won't be checked here
// as we always want to have the built-in EVM as the failover option.
evm.interpreters = append(evm.interpreters, NewEVMInterpreter(evm, vmConfig))
evm.interpreter = evm.interpreters[0]
return evm
}
上面主要是emv在创建时候的简单逻辑，由第一节分析的tx执行过程可知，实际上每次交易调用虚拟机执行时候主要调用了虚拟机的两个方法evm.Call() 和 evm.Create() 两个方法，那么下面的分析主要由这两个方法展开
2.2.2 evm.Call()
// 这个方法是除合约创建以外所tx实际执行都要使用的方法
// Call executes the contract associated with the addr with the given input as
// parameters. It also handles any necessary value transfer required and takes
// the necessary steps to create accounts and reverses the state in case of an
// execution error or failed value transfer.
func (evm *EVM) Call(caller ContractRef, addr common.Address, input []byte, gas uint64, value *big.Int) (ret []byte, leftOverGas uint64, err error) {
// 先判断若开启了非递归模式且栈深度大于0 则直接返回
if evm.vmConfig.NoRecursion && evm.depth > 0 {
return nil, gas, nil
}
// 如果evm的调用栈大于Call/Create方法的最大深度限制1024 那么返回错误
// Fail if we're trying to execute above the call depth limit
if evm.depth > int(params.CallCreateDepth) {
return nil, gas, ErrDepth
}
// 如果value字段大于调用者的余额那么返回余额不足错误
// Fail if we're trying to transfer more than the available balance
if !evm.Context.CanTransfer(evm.StateDB, caller.Address(), value) {
return nil, gas, ErrInsufficientBalance
}
// 将addr（被调方）地址转为AccountRef类型，用snapshot记录当前状态快照
var (
to = AccountRef(addr)
snapshot = evm.StateDB.Snapshot()
)
// 若addr不存在于statedb中
if !evm.StateDB.Exist(addr) {
precompiles := PrecompiledContractsHomestead
if evm.ChainConfig().IsByzantium(evm.BlockNumber) {
precompiles = PrecompiledContractsByzantium
}
// 判断此地址若不是预编译合约地址 且区块号符合eip158提议 且 value值为0 ，那么简单返回
if precompiles[addr] == nil && evm.ChainConfig().IsEIP158(evm.BlockNumber) && value.Sign() == 0 {
// Calling a non existing account, don't do anything, but ping the tracer
if evm.vmConfig.Debug && evm.depth == 0 {
evm.vmConfig.Tracer.CaptureStart(caller.Address(), addr, false, input, gas, value)
evm.vmConfig.Tracer.CaptureEnd(ret, 0, 0, nil)
}
return nil, gas, nil
}
// 若上面条件不成立，那么创建此账户
evm.StateDB.CreateAccount(addr)
}
// 先将以太币转账操作执行 call --> to（addr）
evm.Transfer(evm.StateDB, caller.Address(), to.Address(), value)
// Initialise a new contract and set the code that is to be used by the EVM.
// The contract is a scoped environment for this execution context only.
// 创建contract结构体对call、to、value、gas等信息包装成contract结构体方便虚拟机执行
contract := NewContract(caller, to, value, gas)
// 下面将addr、codehash、code赋值给contract的成员属性
contract.SetCallCode(&addr, evm.StateDB.GetCodeHash(addr), evm.StateDB.GetCode(addr))
// Even if the account has no code, we need to continue because it might be a precompile
start := time.Now()
// debug模式下捕获一次evm执行交易的开始结束时间
// Capture the tracer start/end events in debug mode
if evm.vmConfig.Debug && evm.depth == 0 {
evm.vmConfig.Tracer.CaptureStart(caller.Address(), addr, false, input, gas, value)
defer func() { // Lazy evaluation of the parameters
evm.vmConfig.Tracer.CaptureEnd(ret, gas-contract.Gas, time.Since(start), err)
}()
}
// 下面调用run方法执行本次tx
ret, err = run(evm, contract, input, false)
// When an error was returned by the EVM or when setting the creation code
// above we revert to the snapshot and consume any gas remaining. Additionally
// when we're in homestead this also counts for code storage gas errors.
// 若错误不为空，那么进行revert回滚
if err != nil {
evm.StateDB.RevertToSnapshot(snapshot)

以上主要是call()函数执行时的逻辑，其中[256]operation个操作字节码的生成在go-ethereum/core/vm/jump_table.go中，其中每个operation的execute函数的实现在go-ethereum/core/vm/instructions.go
下面分析create()函数的逻辑
2.2.3 evm.Create()
// Create函数主要用来创建合约，Create2是支持了新的eip的函数，这里暂时不分析
// Create creates a new contract using code as deployment code.
func (evm *EVM) Create(caller ContractRef, code []byte, gas uint64, value *big.Int) (ret []byte, contractAddr common.Address, leftOverGas uint64, err error) {
// 计算合约地址，使用调用者地址和nonce创建合约地址
contractAddr = crypto.CreateAddress(caller.Address(), evm.StateDB.GetNonce(caller.Address()))
return evm.create(caller, &codeAndHash{code: code}, gas, value, contractAddr)
}
// create creates a new contract using code as deployment code.
func (evm *EVM) create(caller ContractRef, codeAndHash *codeAndHash, gas uint64, value *big.Int, address common.Address) ([]byte, common.Address, uint64, error) {
// Depth check execution. Fail if we're trying to execute above the
// limit.
//判断evm调用的深度是否大于最大调用限制
if evm.depth > int(params.CallCreateDepth) {
return nil, common.Address{}, gas, ErrDepth
}
// 若value大于0 则判断账户的余额是否充足
if !evm.CanTransfer(evm.StateDB, caller.Address(), value) {
return nil, common.Address{}, gas, ErrInsufficientBalance
}
// 获取调用者的nonce值并将调用者的nonce更新为+1以后的值
nonce := evm.StateDB.GetNonce(caller.Address())
evm.StateDB.SetNonce(caller.Address(), nonce+1)
// 确保此地址没有合约已经存在，一般来说一个stateObject只能有一个code存在
// Ensure there's no existing contract already at the designated address
contractHash := evm.StateDB.GetCodeHash(address)
// 如果新生成的合约地址的Nonce不为0或者使用此地址获取的codehash值不为初始值，返回合约地址冲突错误
// 下面主要检查新生成的合约地址是不是个新地址，是不是被使用过
if evm.StateDB.GetNonce(address) != 0 || (contractHash != (common.Hash{}) && contractHash != emptyCodeHash) {
return nil, common.Address{}, 0, ErrContractAddressCollision
}
// 获取当前statedb的快照
// Create a new account on the state
snapshot := evm.StateDB.Snapshot()
// 在statedb中创建此账户
evm.StateDB.CreateAccount(address)
// 如果区块号的范围是在eip158的范围内，那么将合约地址的nonce设置为1
if evm.ChainConfig().IsEIP158(evm.BlockNumber) {
evm.StateDB.SetNonce(address, 1)
}
// 先执行以太币转账
evm.Transfer(evm.StateDB, caller.Address(), address, value)
// initialise a new contract and set the code that is to be used by the
// EVM. The contract is a scoped environment for this execution context
// only.
//和调用call一样，将数据包装在contract里面
contract := NewContract(caller, AccountRef(address), value, gas)
contract.SetCodeOptionalHash(&address, codeAndHash)
// 如果配置了非递归且evm.depth大于0，那么说明递归调用了，直接返回
if evm.vmConfig.NoRecursion && evm.depth > 0 {
return nil, address, gas, nil
}
if evm.vmConfig.Debug && evm.depth == 0 {
evm.vmConfig.Tracer.CaptureStart(caller.Address(), address, true, codeAndHash.code, gas, value)
}
start := time.Now()
// 具体执行
ret, err := run(evm, contract, nil, false)
// 判断是否超出最大代码大小限制
// check whether the max code size has been exceeded
maxCodeSizeExceeded := evm.ChainConfig().IsEIP158(evm.BlockNumber) && len(ret) > params.MaxCodeSize
// if the contract creation ran successfully and no errors were returned
// calculate the gas required to store the code. If the code could not
// be stored due to not enough gas set an error and let it be handled
// by the error checking condition below.
// 如果执行成功了，且创建数据花费的gas数量没超过账户限制，那么在statedb中存入此账户的代码
if err == nil && !maxCodeSizeExceeded {
createDataGas := uint64(len(ret)) * params.CreateDataGas
if contract.UseGas(createDataGas) {
evm.StateDB.SetCode(address, ret)
} else {
err = ErrCodeStoreOutOfGas
}
}
// When an error was returned by the EVM or when setting the creation code
// above we revert to the snapshot and consume any gas remaining. Additionally
// when we're in homestead this also counts for code storage gas errors.
// 如果代码大小超出限制 或者 错误不为空且区块号是homestead版本或者错误不等于code存储费用超出账户gas错误 那么回滚到前面的状态 且消耗完本次账户提供的gas
if maxCodeSizeExceeded || (err != nil && (evm.ChainConfig().IsHomestead(evm.BlockNumber) || err != ErrCodeStoreOutOfGas)) {
evm.StateDB.RevertToSnapshot(snapshot)
if err != errExecutionReverted {
contract.UseGas(contract.Gas)
}
}
// Assign err if contract code size exceeds the max while the err is still empty.
if maxCodeSizeExceeded && err == nil {
err = errMaxCodeSizeExceeded
}
if evm.vmConfig.Debug && evm.depth == 0 {
evm.vmConfig.Tracer.CaptureEnd(ret, gas-contract.Gas, time.Since(start), err)
}
return ret, address, contract.Gas, err
}
以上部分粗略的分析了以太坊交易如何在以太坊虚拟机中执行的过程。期间还有许多细节需要仔细去理解。
另外 jump_table.go和instractions.go是虚拟机字节码的具体实现，请自行翻阅
在vm/evm.go下面还有CallCode、DelegateCall、StaticCall方法不允许直接调用，而是在字节码层面间接调用，需要了解的请自行翻阅。逻辑和call类似
