In contrast, it performs an invalid operation (instruction ``0xfe``) if a runtime exception is encountered. In both cases, this causes the EVM to revert all changes made to the state. The reason for this is that there is no safe way to continue execution, because an expected effect did not occur. Because we want to retain the atomicity of transactions, the safest thing to do is to revert all changes and make the whole transaction diff --git a/docs/miscellaneous.rst b/docs/miscellaneous.rst index a64ceeb2..3c57507e 100644 --- a/docs/miscellaneous.rst +++ b/docs/miscellaneous.rst @@ -435,7 +435,7 @@ The following is the order of precedence for operators, listed in order of evalu | *16* | Comma operator | ``,`` | +------------+-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------------+ -.. index:: block, coinbase, difficulty, number, block;number, timestamp, block;timestamp, msg, data, gas, sender, value, now, gas price, origin, assert, keccak256, ripemd160, sha256, ecrecover, addmod, mulmod, cryptography, this, super, selfdestruct, balance, send +.. index:: block, coinbase, difficulty, number, block;number, timestamp, block;timestamp, msg, data, gas, sender, value, now, gas price, origin, assert, revert, keccak256, ripemd160, sha256, ecrecover, addmod, mulmod, cryptography, this, super, selfdestruct, balance, send Global Variables ================ @@ -453,6 +453,7 @@ Global Variables - ``now`` (``uint``): current block timestamp (alias for ``block.timestamp``) - ``tx.gasprice`` (``uint``): gas price of the transaction - ``tx.origin`` (``address``): sender of the transaction (full call chain) +- ``revert()``: abort execution and revert state changes - ``keccak256(...) returns (bytes32)``: compute the Ethereum-SHA-3 (Keccak-256) hash of the (tightly packed) arguments - ``sha3(...) returns (bytes32)``: an alias to `keccak256()` - ``sha256(...) returns (bytes32)``: compute the SHA-256 hash of the (tightly packed) arguments diff --git a/docs/units-and-global-variables.rst b/docs/units-and-global-variables.rst index a6f6613f..72741b67 100644 --- a/docs/units-and-global-variables.rst +++ b/docs/units-and-global-variables.rst @@ -79,7 +79,7 @@ Block and Transaction Properties You can only access the hashes of the most recent 256 blocks, all other values will be zero. -.. index:: assert, keccak256, ripemd160, sha256, ecrecover, addmod, mulmod, cryptography, this, super, selfdestruct, balance, send +.. index:: assert, revert, keccak256, ripemd160, sha256, ecrecover, addmod, mulmod, cryptography, this, super, selfdestruct, balance, send Mathematical and Cryptographic Functions ---------------------------------------- @@ -100,6 +100,8 @@ Mathematical and Cryptographic Functions compute RIPEMD-160 hash of the (tightly packed) arguments ``ecrecover(bytes32 hash, uint8 v, bytes32 r, bytes32 s) returns (address)``: recover the address associated with the public key from elliptic curve signature or return zero on error +``revert()``: + abort execution and revert state changes In the above, "tightly packed" means that the arguments are concatenated without padding.
