The primary purpose of this PR is the fix in
engine/src/gas.rs
. It fixes a bug whereeth_estimateGas
was incorrectly interpreting requests missing theto
field as requests with"to": "0x00"
. In the EVM, transactions to the zero address are calls whereas transactions without any to field are contract deployments -- this distinction is very important.Additionally, this PR changes the
eth_estiamteGas
response to add 33% to the value it computes. This gives some buffer in case the on-chain transaction consumes more gas than the local simulation.This PR also includes a test for this fix, which the bulk of the newly added lines of code.
