Icon LinkReading Guide

This page provides a description of all instructions for the FuelVM. Encoding is read as a sequence of one 8-bit value (the opcode identifier) followed by four 6-bit values (the register identifiers or immediate value). A single i indicates a 6-bit immediate value, i i indicates a 12-bit immediate value, i i i indicates an 18-bit immediate value, and i i i i indicates a 24-bit immediate value. All immediate values are interpreted as big-endian unsigned integers. If the instruction would be shorter than the full 32 bits, the remaining part is reserved and must be zero.

• The syntax MEM[x, y] used in this page means the memory range starting at byte x, of length y bytes.
• The syntax STATE[x, y] used in this page means the sequence of storage slots starting at key x and spanning y bytes.

Icon LinkPanics

Some instructions may panic, i.e. enter an unrecoverable state. Additionally, attempting to execute an instruction not in this list causes a panic and consumes no gas. Instructions with reserved part having a non-zero value will likewise panic. How a panic is handled depends on context :

• In a predicate context, cease VM execution and return false.
• In other contexts, revert (described below).

On a non-predicate panic, append a receipt to the list of receipts:

then append an additional receipt to the list of receipts:

Icon LinkReceipts

The number of receipts is limited to 216, with the last two reserved to panic and script result receipts. Trying to add any other receipts after 216-2 will panic.

Icon LinkEffects

A few instructions are annotated with the effects they produce, the table below explains each effect:

If an instruction is not annotated with an effect, it means it does not produce any of the aforementioned affects.

Icon LinkArithmetic/Logic (ALU) Instructions

All these instructions advance the program counter $pc by 4 after performing their operation.

Normally, if the result of an ALU operation is mathematically undefined (e.g. dividing by zero), the VM panics. However, if the F_UNSAFEMATH flag is set, $err is set to true and execution continues.

If an operation would overflow, so that the result doesn't fit into the target field, the VM will panic. Results below zero are also considered overflows. If the F_WRAPPING flag is set, instead $of is set to true or the overflowing part of the result, depending on the operation.

$rB is the amount of coins to forward. $rC points to the 32-byte asset ID of the coins to forward. $rD is the amount of gas to forward. If it is set to an amount greater than the available gas, all available gas is forwarded.

Append a receipt to the list of receipts:

For output with contract ID MEM[$rA, 32], increase balance of asset ID MEM[$rC, 32] by $rB. In an external context, decrease MEM[balanceOfStart(MEM[$rC, 32]), 8] by $rB. In an internal context, decrease asset ID MEM[$rC, 32] balance of output with contract ID MEM[$fp, 32] by $rB.

A call frame is pushed at $sp. In addition to filling in the values of the call frame, the following registers are set:

1. $fp = $sp (on top of the previous call frame is the beginning of this call frame)
2. Set $ssp and $sp to the start of the writable stack area of the call frame.
3. Set $pc and $is to the starting address of the code.
4. $flag set to zero.
5. $bal = $rB (forward coins)
6. $cgas = $rD or all available gas (forward gas)

This modifies the balanceRoot field of the appropriate output(s).

Icon LinkOther Instructions

All these instructions advance the program counter $pc by 4 after performing their operation.

Icon LinkECAL: Call external function

This function provides an escape hatch from the VM, similar to ecall instruction of RISC-V. The suggested convention is to use $rA for "system call number", i.e. identifying the procedure to call, but all arguments can be used freely. The operation can modify the VM state freely, including writing to registers and memory. Again, the suggested convention is to use $rA for the return value and $err for any possible errors. However, these conventions can be ignored when necessary.

Panic if:

• The external function panics.

Icon LinkFLAG: Set flags

Panic if:

• Any reserved flags are set

Icon LinkGM: Get metadata

Read metadata from memory. A convenience instruction to avoid manually extracting metadata.

If imm == GM_IS_CALLER_EXTERNAL:

Panic if:

• $fp == 0 (in an external context)

Set $rA to true if parent is an external context, false otherwise.

If imm == GM_GET_CALLER:

Panic if:

• $fp == 0 (in an external context)
• $fp->$fp == 0 (if parent context is external)

Set $rA to $fp->$fp (i.e. $rA will point to the previous call frame's contract ID).

If imm == GM_GET_VERIFYING_PREDICATE:

Panic if:

• not in a predicate context

Set $rA to the index of the currently-verifying predicate.

Icon LinkGTF: Get transaction fields

Get fields from the transaction .

Panic if:

• $rA is a reserved register
• imm is not one of the values listed above
• The value of $rB results in an out of bounds access for variable-length fields
• The input or output type does not match (OutputChange and OutputVariable count as OutputCoin)
• The requested policy type is not set for this transaction.

For fixed-length fields, the value of $rB is ignored.
