Fast Ethereum Virtual Machine implementation

evmone is a C++ implementation of the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Created by members of the Ewasm team, the project aims for clean, standalone EVM implementation that can be imported as an execution module by Ethereum Client projects. The codebase of evmone is optimized to provide fast and efficient execution of EVM smart contracts.

Characteristic of evmone

  1. Exposes the EVMC API.
  2. The "indirect" subroutine threading is the dispatch method - a table with pointers to subroutines is prepared during the analysis of the bytecode.
  3. The gas cost and stack requirements of block of instructions is precomputed and applied once per block during execution.
  4. The intx library is used to provide 256-bit integer precision.
  5. The ethash library is used to provide Keccak hash function implementation needed for the special SHA3 instruction.
  6. Requires C++17 standard.

Usage

To build the evmone EVMC module (shared library), test or benchmark.

cd evmone
mkdir build
cd build

cmake .. -DEVMONE_TESTING=ON
