## Abstract
|
|
|
|
Adding a new opcode, `CREATE2COPY`, that is identical to `CREATE2` but with potentially much lower gas cost by accepting an additional argument `existing_contract_address` that already stored the code of the new contract.
|
|
|
|
## Motivation
|
|
|
|
This EIP aims to reduce the smart contract creation cost of account abstraction (AA) contracts that have identical code.
|
|
|
|
The major cost of creating an AA contract is the contract creation cost, especially data gas. For example, creating an AA contract with 10,000 bytes will consume 2,000,000 data gas. Considering the code for each user's AA contract is the same, `CREATE2COPY` can reduce the data gas cost to 2600 (cold account) or even 100 (warm account) if the contract code already exists in the local storage.
|

|
## Specification
|
|
|
|
### Parameters
|
|
|
|
| Constant | Value |
|
|
| ---------------------------- | ---------------- |
|
|
| `FORK_BLKNUM` | TBD |
|
|
| `CREATE_DATA_GAS_PER_BYTE` | 200 |
|
|
| `COLD_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_COST` | 2600 |
|
|
| `WARM_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_COST` | 100 |
|
|
|
|
If `block.number >= FORK_BLKNUM`, a new opcode is added (`CREATE2COPY`) at `0xf6`, which takes 5 stack arguments: `endowment`, `memory_start`, `memory_length`, `salt`, `existing_contract_address`. `CREATE2COPY` behaves identically to `CREATE2` (`0xf5` as defined in [EIP-1014](./eip-1014.md)), except that the code hash of the creating contract MUST be the same as that of `existing_contract_address`.
|
|
|
|
`CREATE2COPY` has the same `gas` schema as `CREATE2`, but replacing the data gas from `CREATE_DATA_GAS_PER_BYTE * CONTRACT_BYTES` to the gas cost of `EXTCODEHASH` opcode, which is `COLD_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_COST` if the `existing_contract_address` is first-time accessed in the transaction or `WARM_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_COST` if `existing_contract_address` is already in the access list according to [EIP-2929](./eip-2929.md).
|
|
|
|
If the code of the contract returned from the init code differs from that of `existing_contract_address`, the creation fails with the error "mismatched contract creation code with existing code", and will burn all gas for the contract creation.
|
|
## Rationale
|
|
|
|
TBD
|
|
## Security Considerations
|
|
|
|
Needs discussion.
