- Fix "invalid transaction v, r, s values" error when calling debug_traceCall
on BlockSigners contract (0x89)
- Fix "nonce too low" error by respecting Message.SkipNonceChecks flag
- ApplySignTransaction now accepts *Message and uses msg.From directly
- Add fallback to signature recovery for real transactions
- Skip nonce validation when SkipNonceChecks=true (for traceCall)
- Add comprehensive unit tests for both scenarios
Root cause: BlockSigners uses special fast-path that calls
ApplySignTransaction directly, which previously attempted signature
recovery on unsigned transactions from debug_traceCall.
Fixes#1870
* Detect non-EVM special transactions and construct a synthetic top level callFrame in OnTxStart.
* GetResult returns the virtual frame for non-EVM txs to preserve debug API compatibility.
* Add bounds checks in OnTxEnd and OnLog to avoid panics when callstack is empty.
* Add unit tests to verify the fix
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.
