## LEGACY CONTENT

This is legacy content for a previous version of the OP Stack and is no longer current.

## Overview

After processing one or more blocks the outputs will need to be synchronized with the settlement layer (L1)
for trustless execution of L2-to-L1 messaging, such as withdrawals.
These output proposals act as the bridge's view into the L2 state.
Actors called "Proposers" submit the output roots to the settlement layer (L1) and can be contested with a fault proof,
with a bond at stake if the proof is wrong. The [op-proposer][op-proposer] in one such implementation of a proposer.

[op-proposer]: https://github.com/ethereum-optimism/optimism/tree/d48b45954c381f75a13e61312da68d84e9b41418/op-proposer

_Note_: Fault proofs on Optimism are not fully specified at this time. Although fault proof
construction and verification [is implemented in Cannon][cannon],
the fault proof game specification and integration of a output-root challenger into the [rollup-node][g-rollup-node]
are part of later specification milestones.

## Proposing L2 Output Commitments

The proposer's role is to construct and submit output roots, which are commitments to the L2's state,
to the `L2OutputOracle` contract on L1 (the settlement layer). To do this, the proposer periodically
queries the [rollup node](rollup-node.md) for the latest output root derived from the latest
[finalized](rollup-node.md#finalization-guarantees) L1 block. It then takes the output root and
submits it to the `L2OutputOracle` contract on the settlement layer (L1).

### L2OutputOracle v1.0.0

The submission of output proposals is permissioned to a single account. It is expected that this
account will continue to submit output proposals over time to ensure that user withdrawals do not halt.

The [L2 output proposer][op-proposer] is expected to submit output roots on a deterministic
interval based on the configured `SUBMISSION_INTERVAL` in the `L2OutputOracle`. The larger
the `SUBMISSION_INTERVAL`, the less often L1 transactions need to be sent to the `L2OutputOracle`
contract, but L2 users will need to wait a bit longer for an output root to be included in L1 (the settlement layer)
that includes their intention to withdraw from the system.

The honest `op-proposer` algorithm assumes a connection to the `L2OutputOracle` contract to know
the L2 block number that corresponds to the next output proposal that must be submitted. It also
assumes a connection to an `op-node` to be able to query the `optimism_syncStatus` RPC endpoint.

```python
import time

while True:
next_checkpoint_block = L2OutputOracle.nextBlockNumber()
rollup_status = op_node_client.sync_status()
if rollup_status.finalized_l2.number >= next_checkpoint_block:
output = op_node_client.output_at_block(next_checkpoint_block)
tx = send_transaction(output)
time.sleep(poll_interval)
```

A `CHALLENGER` account can delete multiple output roots by calling the `deleteL2Outputs()` function
and specifying the index of the first output to delete, this will also delete all subsequent outputs.

## L2 Output Commitment Construction

The `output_root` is a 32 byte string, which is derived based on the a versioned scheme:

```pseudocode
output_root = keccak256(version_byte || payload)
```

where:

1. `version_byte` (`bytes32`) a simple version string which increments anytime the construction of the output root
is changed.

2. `payload` (`bytes`) is a byte string of arbitrary length.

In the initial version of the output commitment construction, the version is `bytes32(0)`, and the payload is defined
as:

```pseudocode
payload = state_root || withdrawal_storage_root || latest_block_hash
```

where:

1. The `latest_block_hash` (`bytes32`) is the block hash for the latest L2 block.

1. The `state_root` (`bytes32`) is the Merkle-Patricia-Trie ([MPT][g-mpt]) root of all execution-layer accounts.
This value is frequently used and thus elevated closer to the L2 output root, which removes the need to prove its
inclusion in the pre-image of the `latest_block_hash`. This reduces the merkle proof depth and cost of accessing the
L2 state root on L1.

1. The `withdrawal_storage_root` (`bytes32`) elevates the Merkle-Patricia-Trie ([MPT][g-mpt]) root of the [Message
Passer contract](withdrawals.md#the-l2tol1messagepasser-contract) storage. Instead of making an MPT proof for a
withdrawal against the state root (proving first the storage root of the L2toL1MessagePasser against the state root,
then the withdrawal against that storage root), we can prove against the L2toL1MessagePasser's storage root directly,
thus reducing the verification cost of withdrawals on L1.

## L2 Output Oracle Smart Contract

L2 blocks are produced at a constant rate of `L2_BLOCK_TIME` (2 seconds).
A new L2 output MUST be appended to the chain once per `SUBMISSION_INTERVAL` which is based on a number of blocks.
The exact number is yet to be determined, and will depend on the design of the fault proving game.

The L2 Output Oracle contract implements the following interface:

```solidity
/**
* @notice The number of the first L2 block recorded in this contract.
*/
uint256 public startingBlockNumber;
/**
* @notice The timestamp of the first L2 block recorded in this contract.
*/
uint256 public startingTimestamp;
/**
* @notice Accepts an L2 outputRoot and the timestamp of the corresponding L2 block. The
* timestamp must be equal to the current value returned by `nextTimestamp()` in order to be
* accepted.
* This function may only be called by the Proposer.
*
* @param _l2Output The L2 output of the checkpoint block.
* @param _l2BlockNumber The L2 block number that resulted in _l2Output.
* @param _l1Blockhash A block hash which must be included in the current chain.
* @param _l1BlockNumber The block number with the specified block hash.
*/
function proposeL2Output(
bytes32 _l2Output,
uint256 _l2BlockNumber,
bytes32 _l1Blockhash,
uint256 _l1BlockNumber
)
/**
* @notice Deletes all output proposals after and including the proposal that corresponds to
* the given output index. Only the challenger address can delete outputs.
*
* @param _l2OutputIndex Index of the first L2 output to be deleted. All outputs after this
* output will also be deleted.
*/
function deleteL2Outputs(uint256 _l2OutputIndex) external
/**
* @notice Computes the block number of the next L2 block that needs to be checkpointed.
*/
function nextBlockNumber() public view returns (uint256)
```

### Configuration

The `startingBlockNumber` must be at least the number of the first Bedrock block.
The `startingTimestamp` MUST be the same as the timestamp of the start block.

The first `outputRoot` proposed will thus be at height `startingBlockNumber + SUBMISSION_INTERVAL`

## Security Considerations

### L1 Reorgs

If the L1 has a reorg after an output has been generated and submitted, the L2 state and correct output may change
leading to a faulty proposal. This is mitigated against by allowing the proposer to submit an
L1 block number and hash to the Output Oracle when appending a new output; in the event of a reorg, the block hash
will not match that of the block with that number and the call will revert.

output = op_node_client.output_at_block(next_checkpoint_block)
tx = send_transaction(output)
time.sleep(poll_interval)

This value is frequently used and thus elevated closer to the L2 output root, which removes the need to prove its
inclusion in the pre-image of the `latest_block_hash`. This reduces the merkle proof depth and cost of accessing the
L2 state root on L1.

1. The `withdrawal_storage_root` (`bytes32`) elevates the Merkle-Patricia-Trie ([MPT][g-mpt]) root of the [Message
Passer contract](withdrawals.md#the-l2tol1messagepasser-contract) storage. Instead of making an MPT proof for a
withdrawal against the state root (proving first the storage root of the L2toL1MessagePasser against the state root,
then the withdrawal against that storage root), we can prove against the L2toL1MessagePasser's storage root directly,
thus reducing the verification cost of withdrawals on L1.

## Security Considerations

### L1 Reorgs

If the L1 has a reorg after an output has been generated and submitted, the L2 state and correct output may change
leading to a faulty proposal. This is mitigated against by allowing the proposer to submit an
L1 block number and hash to the Output Oracle when appending a new output; in the event of a reorg, the block hash
will not match that of the block with that number and the call will revert.
An updated version of this specification is in progress.
In the meantime, refer to the [Dispute Game Interface](../fault-proof/stage-one/dispute-game-interface.md#disputegamefactory-interface)
document and the `DisputeGameFactory` in particular to understand the basics of L2 output root proposals after the
introduction of Fault Proofs to the OP Stack.
