Problem: to many out of gas txs calls to Staking Precompiles post-upgrade

[VictorTrustyDev]

Context

Post-upgrade v16, there are many out of gas txs which calls to Staking Precompiles, looks abnormal:

I also noticed that, haha. The core reason is that the gas returned by the RPC interface eth_estimateGas is not accurate.

[VictorTrustyDev]

Probably should apply a magic number like DefaultGasMultiplier of Cosmos-SDK which is 1.2

[luchenqun]

I agree with your point.

Thanks for the report! Will investigate

ENG-2470 Issue 2271

[ramacarlucho]

This was fixed by this PR.
If not, please reopen the issue.

[VictorTrustyDev]

Although the txs look better atm and seems resolved somehow.
But I believe there is no relates to the PR you provided, because that PR fixes trace* methods.

[MalteHerrmann]

Reopening because the reason for this is not understood fully yet 👀.

[ramacarlucho]

We believe that the execution of the txs were not failing, it was just the trace transaction that was giving the incorrect information.

Can you send us a failing tx so we can check?

[VictorTrustyDev]

@ramacarlucho if Escan says the txs as failed, they actually failed during consensus.
I'm not bad enough to set the txs to be failed based on trace transaction result 🤣

Next time I will do screen capture.

@VictorTrustyDev @luchenqun Do you see this happening on the Staking precompile only or in other precompiles too?

[VictorTrustyDev]

Unfortunately I didn't check the other precompiles that time.
