Trait ckb_vm::snapshot2::DataSource

pub trait DataSource<I: Clone + PartialEq> {
    // Required method
    fn load_data(
        &self,
        id: &I,
        offset: u64,
        length: u64,
    ) -> Option<(Bytes, u64)>;
}

DataSource represents data source that can stay stable and possibly immutable for the entire lifecycle duration of a VM instance. One example can be the enclosing transaction when using CKB-VM in CKB’s environment, no matter where and when we run the CKB smart contract, the enclosing transaction will always be the same down to every last byte. As a result, we can leverage DataSource for snapshot optimizations: data that is already locatable in the DataSource will not need to be included in the snapshot again, all we need is an id to locate it, together with a pair of offset / length to cut in to the correct slices. Just like CKB’s syscall design, an extra u64 value is included here to return the remaining full length of data starting from offset, without considering length parameter
