## What ❔

This PR is the first part of [this
one](matter-labs#2631).

We decided to separate it into smaller PRs to make it easier to read and
review.

This PR contains only the changes to the `TransactionData` structs for
the different VM versions, modifying them for an optional field.

The other parts are currently available in our repo fork, as they are
based on this branch. The other PRs are:
- [feat: evm simulator as base system
contract](#256):
integrates the EVM interpreter contract as a base system contract and
includes all necessary updates for zksync-era to run with it.
- [feat: make evm simulator optional for the
server](#257): makes the
evm simulator optional to run using a config file.

## What ❔

Following Anton's suggestion, we have switched to hex serialization for
API/RPC requests and responses. Previously, we used default JSON
serialization for Vec<u8>, which resulted in a lengthy comma-separated
list of integers.

This change standardizes serialization, making it more efficient and
reducing the size of the responses. The previous format, with a series
of comma-separated integers for pubkey-like fields, looked odd.

Then:
```
curl -X POST\
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "unstable_getTeeProofs", "params": [491882, "sgx"] }' \
        https://mainnet.era.zksync.io
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":[{"attestation":[3,0,2,0,0,0,0,0,10,<dozens of comma-separated integers here>
```

Now:
```
$ curl -X POST \
       -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
       --data '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "unstable_getTeeProofs", "params": [1, "sgx"] }' \
          http://localhost:3050
{"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":[{"l1BatchNumber":1,"teeType":"sgx","pubkey":"0506070809","signature":"0001020304","proof":"0a0b0c0d0e","provedAt":"2024-09-16T11:53:38.253033Z","attestation":"0403020100"}],"id":1}
```

This change needs to be deployed in lockstep with:
matter-labs/teepot#209.

## Why ❔

To improve user experience (UX) and optimize the RPC response size.

## What ❔
- 30 GB of free disk space are no longer sufficient to run a testnet EN.
Upped the system requirements to 50 GB.
- State growth is normally used to refer to the growth of the state
tree, not of the historical state. What we have is historical state
pruning, not state pruning.

## What ❔

Bumps the `vm2` crate revision and updates new VM usage correspondingly.

## Why ❔

To keep the `vm2` dependency up to date and track possible regressions.

## What ❔

- Allows to continue batch execution on divergence via new
`ShadowLenient` VM mode.
- Dumps VM state to logs and optionally a file on divergence.

## Why ❔

Allows to detect divergencies in multiple batches w/o blockers. The
dumped VM state will hopefully allow investigating divergencies locally,
although this logic isn't implemented yet.

### Summary

This PR introduces a new component `circuit_prover`, which is multiple
WVGs & GPU prover running together, groupless. The changes are
non-destructive, old setup and new setup must work together in-tandem.

### What?

Circuit prover is a component that runs X WVGs alongside a GPU prover.
Making full use of CPUs on the GPU machine, WVGs as a component can be
removed altogether. Prover groups are not needed anymore. Based on
empiric testing we can (almost -- there will be follow-up fixes to make
it efficient) fully run everything on a single machine.

The current implementation can sunset the old setup. Current metrics
show that circuit prover is > 60% efficient than old one (but quirks are
needed for node proofs to unlock it -- will be treated as a follow-up).

The purpose is to have the `circuit_prover` deprecate old `prover_fri` &
`witness_vector_generator`.

### Why?

The changes will allow us to reduce our infrastructure footprint by ~2x
and fix plenty of issues we had in the past. Namely:
- fully decoupled of GCP
- better resource utilization & reduce costs
- reduce overall infrastructure needs (which solves the GPU
unavailability we've been facing)
- reduce complexity & other inefficiencies (no more prover groups!)
- and more

### Ask

We want to unblock folks running on AWS. This PR is done as is to speed
up release process on DevOps side, as it's the longest pole.

NOTE: This is the first PR out of a longer set of PRs.

Comments are more than welcome, but the following concerns will be
addressed in follow-up PRs and are out of scope for this PR:
- tracing implementation is subpar; in fact, I'm confident that most
metrics could be done via traces
- there's a lot of code duplication (both old/new prover, but runner
interface between new WVG & CP)
- tests
- concern separation between job scheduling & job execution
- job priority based on resource consumption
- other nits (such as no README, constants being hard-coded instead of
configuration, etc.)

### Reviewer suggestion

This is basically a merge between `prover_fri`,
`witness_vector_generation` and `JobProcessor`. Checking code alongside
should give you a better view of what's going on. Sorry for making this
hard. :/

## What ❔

Refactors `L1BatchParamsProvider`, in particular its construction.

## Why ❔

To have more intuitive DevEx.

## What ❔

Continues oneshot VM executor extraction by moving generic environment
types to the `zksync_vm_executor` crate.

it's now used in `zksync_node_consensus`.

After new prover was introduced, a new flag is needed for code that
touches GPU related code that has no CUDA available. This PR adds the
flag to CI pipelines that were missed.
[Sample](https://github.com/matter-labs/zksync-era/actions/runs/10958933706/job/30430256489)
broken CI.

## What ❔

Splits old and new VM implementations in the `multivm` crate:

- Old VMs are encapsulated in the `LegacyVmInstance` enum, while new
ones in the `FastVmInstance` enum (which includes plain and shadowed VM
variants).
- Fast VM and `FastVmInstance` now expose a tracer type.
- Usage of the Fast VM in the batch executor are updated
correspondingly.

## Why ❔

It seems infeasible to unify the tracer model for old and new VMs, so
keeping them all in a single enum makes little sense.

Previously, this was done via a compile flag. This was deemed poor taste
and we've moved a specific env-var - `ZKSYNC_USE_CUDA_STUBS`. This is
wired deep within crypto dependencies.

the flag and updates all workflows (fixing the broken ones from
RUSTFLAGS time).

## What ❔

- ~`.cargo/config.toml` is a remnant from when we used private repos. It
should no longer be necessary.~
- ~`configs/` doesn't seem to be used at all.~
- `building-from-scratch` just contains an old docker file that was used
for Coinbase. No longer used.

## What ❔
Adds https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2024-0375 to `deny.toml`,
which is due to `StructOpt`.

In some previous pr, I've added a field to json RPC response
(consensusGlobalConfig) and it turned out to be incompatible due to the
default parsing behavior: an error was returned when unknown fields were
present. In general, for programmatic communications the recommended
behaviour is to silently ignore unknown fields, so that adding new
fields is compatible.

I've also weakened the restriction on accepting new consensus genesis by
external nodes - when the unknown fields are silently dropped, it is
possible that the node will perceive genesis with the same fork number
differently after a binary update (because it receives more fields).

run self deployed zksync hyperchain. To fix this, I have added
appropriate changes to the code.

## What ❔

Changes the `debug_traceCall` handler to use the fee provider for recent
blocks (pending / latest / committed).

## Why ❔

Previously, the `debug` namespace used a static batch fee input
retrieved at the node initialization. This looks incorrect.

## What ❔
Exposes the consensus http debug on port 5000.
Fixes BFT-508

## What ❔
Added `EcosystemPortsScanner` tool to scan ecosystem directory config
and find all values for ports.
Returns `EcosystemPorts` object with ports found and custom description
of a service.
`EcosystemPorts` also contains methods to: check whether the port is
assigned, allocate a new port in range, etc.

## Why ❔
With multiple chains and number of services (like explorer, etc.)
growing - it is useful to have a tool (`EcosystemPorts`) that can be
used to allocate new ports, thus, lowering the chance of port conflicts
within created configuration.

## What ❔

Makes gas estimation more efficient by using heuristics similar to ones
used by Ethereum clients:

- Defines the lower gas limit bound as the gas consumed with an
effectively infinite gas limit.
- Defines an initial binary search pivot as a slightly larger value so
that in the best / average case, most of the search space is immediately
discarded.

## Why ❔

Improves gas estimation latency in the best and average case.

## What ❔

Right now, while running prover binaries inside of zksync-era, config
paths are specified as path to config from chain config(which is
`./chain/configs` - relative path, but not absolute). This breaks,
because to run prover binaries, shell enters prover directory of era.

…atter-labs#2946)

## What ❔
Added subcommands:
`zki chain init configs` - just creates configs with an intention to run
chain initialization manually via subcommands
`zki chain register-chain` - runs steps from `RegisterHyperchain.s.sol`
`zki chain accept-chain-ownership` - accepts ownership for
`DiamondProxy`
`zki chain genesis database` - initializes database only, performs
migration (uses values from args or `secrets.yaml`)
`zki chain genesis server` - runs server --genesis

Added flags:
`zki ecosystem init --ecosystem-only` - runs `init` only for ecosystem
(skips `init` for chain)

Other changes:
* Fixed issue with `--wallet_path` value ignored
* Nullify database names if `zki ecosystem init` is used for multiple
chains
* Zeroify some addresses in `contracts.yaml` when copying from ecosystem
during init

## Why ❔
These changes allow us to run the chain registration process for
externally hosted chains.
Not ideal yet, but the process goes like this:
L1 side:
* Init ecosystem: `zki ecosystem create && zki ecosystem init
--ecosystem-only && zki chain init configs`
* Fill in wallets
* Register chain: `zki chain register-chain`
* Deploy L2 contracts: `zki chain deploy-l2-contracts`
* Share `contracts.yaml`

L2 side:
* Init ecosystem: `zki ecosystem create && zki ecosystem init
--ecosystem-only && zki chain init configs`
* Fill in wallets
* Copy `contracts.yaml`
* Accept ownership: `zki chain accept-chain-ownership`
* Initialize databases: `zki chain genesis database`
* Run server genesis: `zki chain genesis server`
