This change (closely related to the neo-project/neo#1321 proposal) speeds up
1.4M mainnet blocks import by 30%. Basically, we're eliminating key decoding
for block's multisignature that has the same keys most of the time.
Things I don't like about this patch:
* yet another parameter for verifyHashAgainstScript()
* vm keys are not copied in/out
But it's rather simple and solves the problem for this particular case, so I
think it's worth it.
Before this patch on block import we could easily be spending more than 6
seconds out of 30 in Uint256 encoding for UnspentBalance, now it's completely
off the radar.
This allows easier reuse of opcodes and in some cases allows to eliminate
dependencies on the whole vm package, like in compiler that only needs opcodes
and doesn't care about VM for any other purpose.
And yes, they're opcodes because an instruction is a whole thing with
operands, that's what context.Next() returns.
When encountering already seen stack item we should fail
only if it is a collection. Duplicate Integers or ByteArrays are ok
because they can't lead to recursion.
Make inspect work with avms by default and with go files if told so. In the
end this makes our CLI interface more consistent and usable. Drop useless
CompileAndInspect() compiler method along the way.
VM should be responsible for code execution and in case anyone interested in additional logging or errors they could handle them like we do it iin cli.
When performing NEWARRAY on a Struct or NEWSTRUCT on a Array,
underlying slice needs to be copied, because when it's capacity
doesn't matches it's length, underlying storage will be used
for appends even if it is already pointed at by another slice.
Script can return non-bool results that can still be converted to bool
according to the usual VM rules. Unfortunately Bool() panics if this
conversion fails which is OK for things done in vm.execute(), but certainly
not for VerifyWitnesses(), thus there is a need for TryBool() that will just
return an error in this case.
It gives access to the internal value's Value() which is essential for interop
functions that need to get something from InteropItems. And it also simplifies
some already existing code along the way.
Same thing done in a2a8981979 for PUSHBYTES,
failing to read the amount of bytes specified should lead to FAULT. Also
makes readUint16() and readUint32() panic as this is the behavior we want in
these cases. Add some tests along the way.
Before:
NEO-GO-VM > loadgo h.go
READY: loaded 16 instructions
NEO-GO-VM > ip
instruction pointer at -1 (PUSH0)
After:
NEO-GO-VM > loadgo h.go
READY: loaded 16 instructions
NEO-GO-VM > ip
instruction pointer at -1 (NOP)
I think NOP is a little less scary.
Current NEO documentation lists them:
https://docs.neo.org/docs/en-us/tooldev/advanced/neo_vm.html
CALL_* instructions were left out because of conflict with golint (but they're
removed in NEO 3.0 anyway, so wasting time on them makes no sense).
Update autogenerated instruction_string.go accordingly.
The code that we have actually implements XTUCK and not TUCK. And it's a bit
broken, so fix it and add some tests. The most interesting one (that required
to touch stack code) is the one when we have 1 element on the stack and are
trying to tell XTUCK to push 2 elements deep.
Fixes things like:
* exported type/method/function X should have comment or be unexported
* comment on exported type/method/function X should be of the form "X ..."
(with optional leading article)
Refs. #213.
Fixes one more instruction being ran when VM FAULTs:
NEO-GO-VM > run
NEO-GO-VM > error encountered at instruction 6 (ROLL)
NEO-GO-VM > runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
FAULT
NEO-GO-VM > error encountered at instruction 7 (SETITEM)
NEO-GO-VM > interface conversion: interface {} is []vm.StackItem, not []uint8
Refs. #96.
Simplifies a lot of code and removes some duplication. Unfortunately I had to
move test_util random functions in same commit to avoid cycle
dependencies. One of these random functions was also used in core/transaction
testing, to simplify things I've just dropped it there and used a static
string (which is nice to have for a test anyway).
There is still sha256 left in wallet (but it needs to pass Hash structure into
the signing function).
Unfortunately d58fbe0c88 didn't really fix the
problem because tinfo.Type (the expression resulting type) actually is a bool
and we need to check its parameters. Also, there is need to fix the NEQ
operation.
neo-storm has developed more wrappers for syscall APIs, so they can and should
be used as a drop-in replacement for pkg/vm/api. Moving it out of vm, as it's
not exactly related to the VM itself.
These were interpreted completely wrong, they actually have two next bytes
indicating an offset. This patch is a quick fix, actually more work is needed
here to properly display various instructions.
This is wrong, see issue #294, but it makes our VM tests work (as VM is
missing EQUAL implementation), so until #294 is properly resolved we're better
have this kind of wrong code generation.
