Walkthrough

The pull request introduces a new metric to track the number of iterations required during gas estimation for EVM transactions. This is implemented by adding a GasEstimationIterations method to the Collector interface and its implementations in both the DefaultCollector and nopCollector structs. In the EstimateGas method of the EVM struct, an iterations variable is introduced to count the number of attempts made during gas estimation, which is then reported to the collector.

Changes

File Changes
metrics/collector.go - Added gasEstimationIterations Prometheus gauge field
- Implemented GasEstimationIterations(count int) method
- Updated NewCollector to initialize the new gauge
metrics/nop.go - Added empty GasEstimationIterations(count int) method to nopCollector
services/requester/requester.go - Added iterations variable in EstimateGas method
- Implemented deferred reporting of iterations to collector

🐰 Hop, hop, through the code we go,
Counting gas with metrics in tow,
Iterations tracked with care,
Optimizing with a rabbit's flair,
Efficiency blooms, performance grows! 🚀

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

  • Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
    • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
    • Generate unit testing code for this file.
    • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
  • Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
    • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
  • PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
    • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
    • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
    • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
    • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.

Maybe might be easier to read if you introduce a closure here:

dryRun := func(gasLimit ??) (??, error) {
   tx.Gas = gasLimit
   result, err := e.dryRunTx(tx, from, height, stateOverrides, nil)
   iterations += 1
   return result, err
}

Are there any concerns about reporting the iterations for the case where this function errors?

Good point 👍 I guess we should not report iterations for calls/transactions that we know would error out / or revert. It will skew our metrics, as we know that we need 2+ iterations to estimate the gas, with the currently defined error ratio of 1.5%.

335-335: Consider refactoring using a closure for better readability.

The iteration counting is spread across multiple dryRun calls. Consider using a closure to encapsulate this logic:

 func (e *EVM) EstimateGas(...) (uint64, error) {
     iterations := 0
     defer func() {
         e.collector.GasEstimationIterations(iterations)
     }()
 
+    dryRun := func(gasLimit uint64) (*evmTypes.Result, error) {
+        tx.Gas = gasLimit
+        result, err := e.dryRunTx(tx, from, height, stateOverrides, nil)
+        iterations++
+        return result, err
+    }
+
     // ... rest of the code using dryRun instead of direct calls ...
-    result, err := e.dryRunTx(tx, from, height, stateOverrides, nil)
-    iterations += 1
+    result, err := dryRun(passingGasLimit)

24-24: LGTM!

The implementation follows the established no-op collector pattern.

metrics/collector.go (4)

22-22: LGTM!

The interface addition is properly placed with other metric collection methods.


39-39: LGTM!

The field addition follows the established pattern for metric fields.


95-98: LGTM!

The metric initialization is well-structured with a clear name and descriptive help text.


184-186: LGTM!

The implementation correctly sets the gauge value.

services/requester/requester.go (1)

313-316: LGTM!

The iteration tracking is well-implemented with proper initialization and deferred collection. The defer ensures iterations are reported even when errors occur.
