snapshot.rs

1//! Immutable, shareable EVM state snapshots.
2//!
3//! # Two-tier copy-on-write model (Pillar A)
4//!
5//! A snapshot is split into two tiers:
6//!
7//! - a **memoized immutable base** (`BaseState`) flattening the *cold* layer-2
8//!   `BlockchainDb` index, shared across successive snapshots by `Arc` — both the
9//!   base as a whole and each account's storage map (`Arc<HashMap<U256, U256>>`) —
10//!   so taking a snapshot when the cold index is unchanged is an `Arc` handle
11//!   copy, never a per-slot deep copy;
12//! - a small per-snapshot **overlay** folding the *hot* layer-1 CacheDB delta
13//!   (committed sim changes, write-throughs, freshness corrections), which always
14//!   shadows the base on a read.
15//!
16//! [`super::EvmCache::snapshot`] memoizes the base (via the internal
17//! `refresh_base`) and folds only layer 1 fresh, so its cost tracks *changed*
18//! state, not *total* state. The retained
19//! [`super::EvmCache::snapshot_deep_clone`] produces the same two-tier
20//! shape with everything flattened into the base and empty overlay maps; it is the
21//! A/B benchmark baseline and the read-equivalence reference.
22//!
23//! Reads stay O(1) `HashMap` lookups with no locks (Decision D1: `Arc` sharing,
24//! not a persistent/HAMT map), so the snapshot is `Send + Sync` and an
25//! [`EvmOverlay`] built from it is `Send`.
26//!
27//! # Per-simulation dirty layer
28//!
29//! Each simulation does not mutate the shared snapshot. Instead it wraps the
30//! `Arc<EvmSnapshot>` in an [`EvmOverlay`], which adds a per-simulation
31//! *dirty layer* on top: writes (committed account/storage changes, RPC
32//! fallbacks, freshness overrides) land in the overlay's own maps and take
33//! precedence over the snapshot on subsequent reads. Two overlays built from
34//! the same `Arc<EvmSnapshot>` are fully isolated from one another, so
35//! simulations can run in parallel without contending for or corrupting the
36//! shared base state.
