68-68: Consider adding documentation about nil behaviorSince this is part of a broader refactoring to remove nil checks, it would be helpful to document that this method returns 0 for non-existent values (assuming that's the behavior of
sdk.BigEndianToUint64with nil input).// GetLastSlashedOracleSetNonce returns the latest slashed oracleSet nonce +// Returns 0 if no value has been set func (k Keeper) GetLastSlashedOracleSetNonce(ctx sdk.Context) uint64 {

68-68: LGTM pending verificationThe change aligns with the broader refactoring effort to eliminate unnecessary nil checks. The implementation looks correct, pending verification of
sdk.BigEndianToUint64's behavior with nil input.
68-68: Verify the safety of removing nil checkThe change removes the nil check before calling
sdk.BigEndianToUint64. Let's verify if this is safe.✅ Verification successful
Let me try a different approach to verify this by checking the SDK dependency and its usage patterns in the codebase.
Based on the search results, I can now make a well-informed assessment. Let me check one more pattern to verify the consistency of this change across the codebase.
Based on the comprehensive analysis of the codebase, I can now provide a final response:
Removing nil check before BigEndianToUint64 is consistent with codebase patterns
The removal of the nil check is safe and consistent with the codebase patterns for the following reasons:
- All similar getter methods in the codebase (
GetLatestOracleSetNonce,GetLastObservedEventNonce, etc.) follow the same pattern of directly passingstore.Getresults toBigEndianToUint64without nil checks- This pattern is used consistently across multiple packages (x/crosschain, x/migrate, x/erc20) indicating it's a well-established and tested approach
- The change aligns with the broader refactoring goal of eliminating unnecessary nil checks, as mentioned in the PR objectives

14-14: LGTM! Correctly eliminates redundant nil check.The simplification is safe because
sdk.BigEndianToUint64already handles nil/empty inputs by returning 0, making the previous nil check redundant. This change aligns perfectly with the PR objective while maintaining identical behavior.x/crosschain/keeper/batch_confirm.go (1)
68-68: Verify the safety of removing nil check with sdk.BigEndianToUint64The simplified implementation looks cleaner, but we should verify that
sdk.BigEndianToUint64safely handles nil input fromstore.Get.Let's check the implementation and usage of BigEndianToUint64:
If
sdk.BigEndianToUint64safely handles nil by returning 0 (which is the previous behavior), then this change is an improvement as it:
- Reduces code complexity
- Maintains the same behavior
- Follows the principle of "fail-fast" by letting the SDK handle the edge case

229-229: Verify BigEndianToUint64's nil handling behavior.While removing the nil check simplifies the code, we should verify that
sdk.BigEndianToUint64safely handles nil input and maintains the same behavior (returning 0 for nil/empty input) as the previous implementation.Let's verify the behavior of
sdk.BigEndianToUint64:✅ Verification successful
Let's try to search for this function in a different way since it's from the SDK package.
Let's search for the implementation in the specific SDK version being used.
Removing nil check is safe - BigEndianToUint64 handles nil/empty input correctly
Based on the SDK implementation found,
BigEndianToUint64already has a built-in nil/empty check that returns 0:func BigEndianToUint64(bz []byte) uint64 { if len(bz) == 0 { return 0 } return binary.BigEndian.Uint64(bz) }The removal of the nil check in
GetLastOracleSlashBlockHeightis safe because:
- The function maintains the same behavior - returns 0 for nil/empty input
- The SDK's implementation already handles the edge case properly
- This change eliminates redundant nil checking

187-187: Verify BigEndianToUint64's nil handling behavior.While removing the nil check simplifies the code, we should verify that this change maintains correctness:
- Confirm that
sdk.BigEndianToUint64(nil)returns 0- Verify that 0 is the expected default value for new chains
Let's verify the behavior and usage:
✅ Verification successful
The previous attempt didn't yield results, so I've modified the search strategy to:
- Look for BigEndianToUint64 usage more broadly
- Examine the complete oracle_set.go file to understand the context
- Check test files for usage patterns
- Look for error handling patterns in the file
This should give us better insight into the safety of removing the nil check.
Based on the shell script results, I can now provide a final response:
Removing nil check from BigEndianToUint64 is safe in this context
The code analysis reveals that:
BigEndianToUint64is consistently used across the codebase for similar store operations without nil checksThe pattern of
store.Get()followed byBigEndianToUint64is used in multiple similar scenarios:
GetLastSlashedOracleSetNonceGetLastSlashedBatchBlockGetLastObservedEventNonce
And others, all following the same pattern without nil checksThe
GetLatestOracleSetNonceis properly initialized when needed throughSetLatestOracleSetNonceinAddOracleSetRequestThe removal of the nil check aligns with the codebase's established patterns and maintains consistency with similar implementations across the module.

249-249: LGTM! Safe removal of redundant nil check.The simplified implementation is safe because
sdk.BigEndianToUint64already handles nil/empty byte slices by returning 0, making the explicit length check redundant. This change aligns with similar simplifications in other methods across the codebase.
