zkVmSkip

Signature

function zkVmSkip() external pure;

Description

When running in zkEVM context, skips the next CREATE or CALL, executing it on the EVM instead. All CREATEs executed within this skip, will automatically have CALLs to their target addresses executed in the EVM, and need not be marked with this cheatcode at every usage location.

Skipping the next operation in zkEVM does not involve migrating storages as is done for zkVm cheatcode.

Examples

/// contract LeetContract {
///     constructor(uint8 value) public {
///         // do something
///     }
/// }

vmExt.zkVm(true);
new LeetContract(1); // deployed in zkEVM

vmExt.zkVmSkip();
new LeetContract(2); // deployed in EVM

new LeetContract(3); // deployed in zkEVM

Any contract deployed within a skip is remembered as such, so adding zkVmSkip to all of its calls is not necessary:

/// contract LeetContract {
///     constructor(uint8 value) public {
///         // do something
///     }
///     
///     function sayLeet() public {
///         // do something
///     }
/// }

contract FooTest is Test, TestExt {
    LeetContract leet1;
    LeetContract leet2;

    function setUp() public {
        leet1 = new LeetContract(1); // deployed in zkEVM

        vmExt.zkVmSkip();
        leet2 = new LeetContract(2); // deployed in EVM
    }

    function testAutomaticLeetDetection() public {
        leet1.sayLeet();            // executed in zkEVM
        
        leet2.sayLeet();            // automatically executed in EVM
    }

    function testManualLeetDetection() public {
        leet1.sayLeet();            // executed in zkEVM
        
        vmExt.zkVmSkip();           // redundant here, as it is
        leet2.sayLeet();            // automatically executed in EVM
    }
}
