Repository Structure

The following files constitute the KEVM semantics:

network.md provides the status codes reported to an Ethereum client on execution exceptions.
json-rpc.md is an implementation of JSON RPC in K.
evm-types.md provides the (functional) data of EVM (256-bit words, wordstacks, etc...).
serialization.md provides helpers for parsing and unparsing data (hex strings, recursive-length prefix, Merkle trees, etc.).
evm.md is the main KEVM semantics, containing EVM’s configuration and transition rules.

These additional files extend the semantics to make the repository more useful:

buf.md defines the #buf byte-buffer abstraction for use during symbolic execution.
abi.md defines the Contract ABI Specification for use in proofs and easy contract/function specification.
hashed-locations.md defines the #hashedLocation abstraction used to specify Solidity-generated storage layouts.
edsl.md combines the previous three abstractions for ease-of-use.
foundry.md adds Foundry capabilities to KEVM.

These files are used for testing the semantics itself:

state-utils.md provides functionality for EVM initialization, setup, and querying.
driver.md is an execution harness for KEVM, providing a simple language for describing tests/programs.
