Subnet EVM

Avalanche is a network composed of multiple blockchains. Each blockchain is an instance of a Virtual Machine (VM), much like an object in an object-oriented language is an instance of a class. That is, the VM defines the behavior of the blockchain.

Subnet EVM is the Virtual Machine (VM) that defines the Subnet Contract Chains. Subnet EVM is a simplified version of Coreth VM (C-Chain).

This chain implements the Ethereum Virtual Machine and supports Solidity smart contracts as well as most other Ethereum client functionality.

Building

The Subnet EVM runs in a separate process from the main AvalancheGo process and communicates with it over a local gRPC connection.

AvalancheGo Compatibility

[v0.1.0] [email protected]
[v0.1.1-v0.1.2] [email protected]
[v0.2.0] [email protected]

API

The Subnet EVM supports the following API namespaces:

eth
personal
txpool
debug

Only the eth namespace is enabled by default. Full documentation for the C-Chain's API can be found here.

Compatibility

The Subnet EVM is compatible with almost all Ethereum tooling, including Remix, Metamask and Truffle.

Differences Between Subnet EVM and Coreth

Added configurable fees and gas limits in genesis
Merged Avalanche hardforks into the single "Subnet EVM" hardfork
Removed Atomic Txs and Shared Memory
Removed Multicoin Contract and State

Setting the Genesis Allocation

When creating an instance of the subnet-evm, you will need to define the genesis state of the new chain. Part of this includes defining the genesis allocation (setting the starting balances for whatever addresses you want). If you don't provide any genesis allocation, you won't be able to interact with your new chain (all transactions require a fee to be paid from the sender's balance).

To specify a genesis allocation, populate the alloc field in the genesis JSON as follows:

  "alloc": {
    "8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC": {
      "balance": "0x52B7D2DCC80CD2E4000000"
    },
    "Ab5801a7D398351b8bE11C439e05C5B3259aeC9B": {
      "balance": "0xa796504b1cb5a7c0000"
    }
  },

The keys in the allocation are hex addresses without the canonical 0x prefix. The balances are denominated in Wei (10^18 Wei = 1 Whole Unit of Native Token) and expressed as hex strings with the canonical 0x prefix. You can use this converter to translate between decimal and hex numbers.

The above example yields the following genesis allocations (denominated in whole units of the native token ie. 1 AVAX/1 WAGMI):

0x8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC: 100000000 (0x52B7D2DCC80CD2E4000000=100000000000000000000000000 Wei)
0xAb5801a7D398351b8bE11C439e05C5B3259aeC9B: 49463

A fully populated genesis JSON with the above allocation would look like (note the alloc field):

}

Setting a Custom Fee Recipient

By default, all fees are burned (sent to the blackhole address). However, it is possible to enable block producers to set a fee recipient (get compensated for blocks they produce).

To enable this feature, you'll need to add the following to your genesis file (under the "config" key):

{
  "config": {
    "allowFeeRecipients":true
  }
}

Next, you'll need to update your chain config with the following:

{
  "feeRecipient":"<YOU 0x-ADDRESS>"
}

Note: If you enable this feature but a validator doesn't specify a "feeRecipient", the fees will be burned in blocks they produce.

Precompiles

Subnet EVM can provide custom functionalities with precompiled contracts. These precompiled contracts can be activated through ChainConfig (in genesis or as an upgrade).

Restricting Smart Contract Deployers

If you'd like to restrict who has the ability to deploy contracts on your subnet, you can provide an AllowList configuration in your genesis file:

{
  "config": {
    "chainId": 99999,
    "homesteadBlock": 0,
    "eip150Block": 0,
    "eip150Hash": "0x2086799aeebeae135c246c65021c82b4e15a2c451340993aacfd2751886514f0",
    "eip155Block": 0,
    "eip158Block": 0,
    "byzantiumBlock": 0,
    "constantinopleBlock": 0,
    "petersburgBlock": 0,
    "istanbulBlock": 0,
    "muirGlacierBlock": 0,
    "subnetEVMTimestamp": 0,
    "feeConfig": {
      "gasLimit": 20000000,
      "minBaseFee": 1000000000,
      "targetGas": 100000000,
      "baseFeeChangeDenominator": 48,
      "minBlockGasCost": 0,
      "maxBlockGasCost": 10000000,
      "targetBlockRate": 2,
      "blockGasCostStep": 500000
    },
    "contractDeployerAllowListConfig": {
      "blockTimestamp": 0,
      "adminAddresses":["0x8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC"]
    }
  },
  "alloc": {
    "8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC": {
      "balance": "0x52B7D2DCC80CD2E4000000"
    }
  },
  "nonce": "0x0",
  "timestamp": "0x0",
  "extraData": "0x00",
  "gasLimit": "0x1312D00",
  "difficulty": "0x0",
  "mixHash": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  "coinbase": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  "number": "0x0",
  "gasUsed": "0x0",
  "parentHash": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
}

In this example, 0x8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC is named as the Admin of the ContractDeployerAllowList. This enables them to add other Admins or to add Deployers. Both Admins and Deployers can deploy contracts. To provide a great UX with factory contracts, the tx.Origin is checked for being a valid deployer instead of the caller of CREATE. This means that factory contracts will still be able to create new contracts as long as the sender of the original transaction is an allow listed deployer.

The Stateful Precompile powering the ContractDeployerAllowList adheres to the following Solidity interface at 0x0200000000000000000000000000000000000000 (you can load this interface and interact directly in Remix):

// (c) 2022-2023, Ava Labs, Inc. All rights reserved.
// See the file LICENSE for licensing terms.

// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT

pragma solidity >=0.8.0;

interface AllowListInterface {
    // Set [addr] to have the admin role over the allow list
    function setAdmin(address addr) external;

    // Set [addr] to be enabled on the allow list
    function setEnabled(address addr) external;

    // Set [addr] to have no role over the allow list
    function setNone(address addr) external;

    // Read the status of [addr]
    function readAllowList(address addr) external view returns (uint256);
}

If you attempt to add a Deployer and you are not an Admin, you will see something like:

If you attempt to deploy a contract but you are not an Admin not a Deployer, you will see something like:

The allow list has three roles: None, Deployer, and Admin.

If you call readAllowList(addr) then you can read the current role of addr, which will return a uint256 with a value of 0, 1, or 2, corresponding to the roles None, Deployer, and Admin respectively.

WARNING: if you remove all of the admins from the allow list, it will no longer be possible to update the allow list without modifying the subnet-evm to schedule a network upgrade.

Minting Native Coins

You can mint native(gas) coins with a precompiled contract. In order to activate this feature, you can provide nativeMinterConfig in genesis:

{
  "config": {
    "chainId": 99999,
    "homesteadBlock": 0,
    "eip150Block": 0,
    "eip150Hash": "0x2086799aeebeae135c246c65021c82b4e15a2c451340993aacfd2751886514f0",

    "eip158Block": 0,
    "byzantiumBlock": 0,
    "constantinopleBlock": 0,
    "petersburgBlock": 0,
    "istanbulBlock": 0,

    "feeConfig": {
      "gasLimit": 20000000,
      "minBaseFee": 1000000000,
      "targetGas": 100000000,
      "baseFeeChangeDenominator": 48,
      "minBlockGasCost": 0,
      "maxBlockGasCost": 10000000,
      "targetBlockRate": 2,
      "blockGasCostStep": 500000
    },
    "contractNativeMinterConfig": {
      "blockTimestamp": 0,
      "adminAddresses":["0x8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC"]
    }
  },
  "alloc": {
    "8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC": {
      "balance": "0x52B7D2DCC80CD2E4000000"
    }
  },
  "nonce": "0x0",
  "timestamp": "0x0",
  "extraData": "0x00",
  "gasLimit": "0x1312D00",
  "difficulty": "0x0",
  "mixHash": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  "coinbase": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000",
  "number": "0x0",
  "gasUsed": "0x0",
  "parentHash": "0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"
}

adminAddresses denotes admin accounts who can add other Admin or Minter accounts. Minters and Admins are both eligible to mint native coins for other addresses. ContractNativeMinter uses same methods as in ContractDeployerAllowList.

The Stateful Precompile powering the ContractNativeMinter adheres to the following Solidity interface at 0x0200000000000000000000000000000000000001 (you can load this interface and interact directly in Remix):

// (c) 2022-2023, Ava Labs, Inc. All rights reserved.
// See the file LICENSE for licensing terms.

// SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT

pragma solidity >=0.8.0;

interface NativeMinterInterface {
    // Set [addr] to have the admin role over the minter list
    function setAdmin(address addr) external;

    // Set [addr] to be enabled on the minter list
    function setEnabled(address addr) external;

    // Set [addr] to have no role over the minter list
    function setNone(address addr) external;

    // Read the status of [addr]
    function readAllowList(address addr) external view returns (uint256);

    // Mint [amount] number of native coins and send to [addr]
    function mintNativeCoin(address addr, uint256 amount) external;
}

_Note: Both ContractDeployerAllowList and ContractNativeMinter can be used together.

Load Simulator

When building developing your own blockchain using subnet-evm, you may want to analyze how your fee paramterization behaves and/or how many resources your VM uses under different load patterns. For this reason, we developed cmd/simulator. cmd/simulator lets your drive arbitrary load across any number of [endpoints] with a user-specified concurrency, base-fee, and priority-fee.

To get started, open the directory cmd/simulator and add your network's endpoints to the file at .simulator/config.yml (these will be provided after running ./scripts/run.sh):

endpoints:
- http://localhost:9650/ext/bc/my-chain/rpc
base-fee: 25
priority-fee: 1
concurrency: 10

Once your config is specified, you can run the tool by either invoking go run main.go or by installing the tool (go install -v .) and running the binary (simulator).

To make getting started easier, the ewoq key 0x8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC has been pre-added to the simulator key directory and can be added to genesis during local network creation (./scripts/run.sh 1.7.7 0x8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC). If you do not add this key to genesis, you'll need to manually fund the master account when prompted in the terminal.

The private key for the ewoq address (0x8db97C7cEcE249c2b98bDC0226Cc4C2A57BF52FC) is 0x56289e99c94b6912bfc12adc093c9b51124f0dc54ac7a766b2bc5ccf558d8027.

Fuji Subnet Deployment

Ready to take the subnet-evm for a spin? Follow this tutorial and you can get your own EVM on your own subnet spun up on Fuji in a jiffy!

You can find an example of a genesis file to use when launching your own subnet-evm in the networks folder.

Prerequisites

1+ nodes running on Fuji (does not need to be a validator)
subnet-cli installed
subnet-cli private key with some Fuji AVAX (see faucet)

Build Binary

First, you'll need to compile the subnet-evm into a binary that AvalancheGo can interact with. To do this, run the following commands (assumes you don't yet have the subnet-evm repository downloaded):

git clone https://github.com/ava-labs/subnet-evm.git;
cd subnet-evm;
./scripts/build.sh build/srEXiWaHuhNyGwPUi444Tu47ZEDwxTWrbQiuD7FmgSAQ6X7Dy;

Move Binary

Once the subnet-evm binary is built, you'll need to move it to AvalancheGo's plugin directory (within the --build-dir) so it can be run by your node. When building from source, this defaults to ~/avalanchego/build/plugins. This build directory is structured as:

build-dir
|_avalanchego
    |_plugins
      |_evm

To put the subnet-evm binary in the right place, run the following command (assuming the avalanchego and subnet-evm repos are in the same folder):

mv ./subnet-evm/build/srEXiWaHuhNyGwPUi444Tu47ZEDwxTWrbQiuD7FmgSAQ6X7Dy ./avalanchego/build/plugins;

Run `subnet-cli wizard`

The easiest and fastest way to get your new subnet off the ground is to use the subnet-cli. This powerful CLI can add validators, create subnets, and create blockchains.

The subnet-cli DOES NOT need to be run on the same host where you are running your validator. By default, it interfaces exclusively with the public Avalanche API Endpoints.

To make it as easy as possible to get started, the subnet-cli also provides a wizard command that takes care of EVERYTHING for you. TL;DR, type one command and you'll have a subnet with a running subnet-evm instance 5 minutes later.

To make NodeID-XXXX a validator, create a subnet, add NodeID-XXXX to the subnet (comma separated with multiple validators), and create a subnet-evm-based blockhain, run the following command:

subnet-cli wizard \
--node-ids=NodeID-XXXX \
--vm-genesis-path=networks/11111/genesis.json \
--vm-id=srEXiWaHuhNyGwPUi444Tu47ZEDwxTWrbQiuD7FmgSAQ6X7Dy \
--chain-name=subnetevm

The vm-id was generated by calling subnet-cli create VMID subnetevm. You can use any value here, the only important thing is to make sure the binary you generate has the same name.

Add New Subnet to Node Whitelist

During the execution of the wizard command, you will be prompted to add your new subnetID to your node. This is done using the whitelisted-subnets config. You can provide the whitelisted-subnets argument by modifying your config file or providing an argument on startup.

Example Config File:

{
  "network-id":"fuji",
  "health-check-frequency":"2s",
  "log-display-level":"INFO",
  "log-level":"INFO",
  "whitelisted-subnets":"<PROVIDED BY SPACES-CLI>"
}

Example Node Args:

--whitelisted-subnets=<PROVIDED BY SPACES CLI> --network-id=fuji

Restart Node

Once you've updated your config, you'll need to restart your AvalancheGo node for the changes to take effect.

If you completed the steps successfully, you'll see the node print out:

Join the WAGMI Subnet Demo

Thanks to the @0xNeonMonsters for the logo!

The WAGMI ("We're All Going to Make It") Subnet Demo is a high throughput testbed for EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) optimizations. It is parameterized to run at a factor more capacity than Fuji/Mainnet C-Chain and will be used to experiment with release candidates before they make it into an official coreth release.

We created a basic WAGMI explorer that surfaces aggregated usage statistics about the subnet. If you'd like to see any other stats added to this site, please send a DM to @_patrickogrady on Twitter.

Everyone that has used the the C-Chain more than twice (~970k addresses) has been airdropped 10 WGM tokens. With the current fee parameterization, this should be enough for hundreds of txs.

This is one of the first cases of using Avalanche Subnets as a proving ground for changes in a production VM (coreth). Many underestimate how useful the isolation of subnets is for performing complex VM testing on a live network (without impacting the stability of the primary network).

Network Creation

To create WAGMI, all we had to do was run the following command:

subnet-cli wizard \
--node-ids=NodeID-9TCq8np31pHjjhGaHtLjs6ptYYPEt3LGb,NodeID-BrYXghQSu6KKGjuzhs3nrkcB46Wc2yYHy,NodeID-89UCR1CsPzzEHuknxhJHKxuFPNCyPz7Bu,NodeID-Hfm8gpD4DpCz4KTzt2osJPfFvu7az3qiD,NodeID-LkdxkfYhg6nSw1EEUxDUSYPXPwmr2cUet \
--vm-genesis-path=networks/11111/genesis.json \
--vm-id=srEXiWaHuhNyGwPUi444Tu47ZEDwxTWrbQiuD7FmgSAQ6X7Dy \
--chain-name=wagmi

This added these NodeIDs as validators on Fuji, created the WAGMI Subnet, added all validators to the WAGMI subnet, and created the WAGMI chain.
