EVM: log estimated ticks to help validate the tick model
Context
contributes to #6091
The reboot uses a notion of estimated_ticks
to help decide when to reboot. Those values are tracked during the kernel run, and updated by the tick_model
. This estimation should be overapproximations and are critical to the safety of the kernel.
To help validate the tick model during benchmarking, this MR logs the estimated ticks and adds them to the bench report created by the benchmark script.
Manually testing the MR
Run the benchmark script, and see a new column "estimated_ticks".
Run the kernel with debug messages and see the estimated ticks for a block and after each transaction
