apply_fork

Transforms the state from the previous hard fork (old) into the block chain object for this hard fork and returns it.

When forks need to implement an irregular state transition, this function is used to handle the irregularity. See the :ref:DAO Fork <dao-fork> for an example.

Parameters

old : Previous block chain object.

Returns

new : BlockChain Upgraded block chain object for this hard fork.

get_last_256_block_hashes

Obtain the list of hashes of the previous 256 blocks in order of increasing block number.

This function will return less hashes for the first 256 blocks.

state_transition

Attempts to apply a block to an existing block chain.

All parts of the block's contents need to be verified before being added to the chain. Blocks are verified by ensuring that the contents of the block make logical sense with the contents of the parent block. The information in the block's header must also match the corresponding information in the block.

To implement Ethereum, in theory clients are only required to store the most recent 255 blocks of the chain since as far as execution is concerned, only those blocks are accessed. Practically, however, clients should store more blocks to handle reorgs.

Parameters

chain : History and current state. block : Block to apply to chain.

validate_header

Verifies a block header.

In order to consider a block's header valid, the logic for the quantities in the header should match the logic for the block itself. For example the header timestamp should be greater than the block's parent timestamp because the block was created after the parent block. Additionally, the block's number should be directly following the parent block's number since it is the next block in the sequence.

Executes a block.

Many of the contents of a block are stored in data structures called tries. There is a transactions trie which is similar to a ledger of the transactions stored in the current block.

Parameters

block_env : The block scoped environment. transactions : Transactions included in the block. ommers : Headers of ancestor blocks which are not direct parents (formerly uncles.)

Returns

block_output : The block output for the current block.

An ommer block is a block that wasn't canonically added to the blockchain because it wasn't validated as fast as the canonical block but was mined at the same time.

To be considered valid, the ommers must adhere to the rules defined in the Ethereum protocol. The maximum amount of ommers is 2 per block and there cannot be duplicate ommers in a block. Many of the other ommer constraints are listed in the in-line comments of this function.

pay_rewards

Pay rewards to the block miner as well as the ommers miners.

The miner of the canonical block is rewarded with the predetermined block reward, BLOCK_REWARD, plus a variable award based off of the number of ommer blocks that were mined around the same time, and included in the canonical block's header. An ommer block is a block that wasn't added to the canonical blockchain because it wasn't validated as fast as the accepted block but was mined at the same time. Although not all blocks that are mined are added to the canonical chain, miners are still paid a reward for their efforts. This reward is called an ommer reward and is calculated based on the number associated with the ommer block that they mined.

Parameters

state : Current account state. block_number : Position of the block within the chain. coinbase : Address of account which receives block reward and transaction fees. ommers : List of ommers mentioned in the current block.

process_transaction

Execute a transaction against the provided environment.

This function processes the actions needed to execute a transaction. It decrements the sender's account balance after calculating the gas fee and refunds them the proper amount after execution. Calling contracts, deploying code, and incrementing nonces are all examples of actions that happen within this function or from a call made within this function.

Accounts that are marked for deletion are processed and destroyed after execution.

check_gas_limit

Validates the gas limit for a block.

The bounds of the gas limit, max_adjustment_delta, is set as the quotient of the parent block's gas limit and the GAS_LIMIT_ADJUSTMENT_FACTOR. Therefore, if the gas limit that is passed through as a parameter is greater than or equal to the sum of the parent's gas and the adjustment delta then the limit for gas is too high and fails this function's check. Similarly, if the limit is less than or equal to the difference of the parent's gas and the adjustment delta or the predefined GAS_LIMIT_MINIMUM then this function's check fails because the gas limit doesn't allow for a sufficient or reasonable amount of gas to be used on a block.

Parameters

gas_limit : Gas limit to validate.

parent_gas_limit : Gas limit of the parent block.

Returns

check : bool True if gas limit constraints are satisfied, False otherwise.

calculate_block_difficulty

Computes difficulty of a block using its header and parent header.

The difficulty is determined by the time the block was created after its parent. The offset is calculated using the parent block's difficulty, parent_difficulty, and the timestamp between blocks. This offset is then added to the parent difficulty and is stored as the difficulty variable. If the time between the block and its parent is too short, the offset will result in a positive number thus making the sum of parent_difficulty and offset to be a greater value in order to avoid mass forking. But, if the time is long enough, then the offset results in a negative value making the block less difficult than its parent.

The base standard for a block's difficulty is the predefined value set for the genesis block since it has no parent. So, a block can't be less difficult than the genesis block, therefore each block's difficulty is set to the maximum value between the calculated difficulty and the MINIMUM_DIFFICULTY.

Parameters

block_number : Block number of the block. block_timestamp : Timestamp of the block. parent_timestamp : Timestamp of the parent block. parent_difficulty : difficulty of the parent block. parent_has_ommers: does the parent have ommers.

Returns

difficulty : ethereum.base_types.Uint Computed difficulty for a block.
