+The Packed State is provided in every executed onchain instruction.
+See [Cannon VM Specs](../../specs/cannon-fault-proof-vm.md#state) for
+details on the state structure.
 
 The packed state is small! The `State` data can be packed in such a small amount of EVM words,
 that it is more efficient to fully provide it, than to create a proof for each individual part involved in execution.
 
-The memory is represented as a merkle-tree root, committing to a binary merkle tree of all memory data,
-see [memory proofs](#memory-proofs).
-
-The `State` covers all general purpose registers, as well as the `lo`, `hi` and `pc` values.
-
-`nextPC` helps pre-schedule the program counter change, to emulate delay-slot behavior of MIPS
-after branch and jump instructions.
-
 The program stops changing the state when `exited` is set to true. The exit-code is remembered,
 to determine if the program is successful, or panicked/exited in some unexpected way.
 This outcome can be used to determine truthiness of claims that are verified as part of the program execution.
 
-The `heap` value is a special value, used to emulate a growing heap, to map new memory upon `mmap` calls by the program.
-No memory reads/writes are actually illegal however, mmap-ing is purely to satisfy program runtimes that
-need the memory-pointer result of the syscall to locate free memory.
-
-The `preimageKey` and `preimageOffset` are backing the in-flight communication of [pre-image data](#pre-image-data).
-
-The VM `stateHash` is computed as `keccak256(encoded_packed_state)`,
-where `encoded_packed_state` is the concatenation of all state-values (all `uint` values are big-endian).

 The OP-stack fault-proof [Pre-image Oracle specs](../../specs/fault-proof.md#pre-image-oracle)
 define the ABI for communicating pre-images.
 
-This ABI is implemented by the VM by intercepting the `read`/`write` syscalls to specific file descriptors:
-- `hint client read = 3`: used by the client to send hint data to the host. Optional, implemented as blocking.
-- `hint client write = 4`: used by the client to wait for the host. Always instant, since the above is implemented as blocking.
-- `preimage client read = 5`: used by the client to read pre-image data, starting from the latest pre-image reading offset.
-- `preimage client write = 6`: used by the client to change the pre-image key. The key may change a little bit at a time. The last 32 written bytes count as key for retrieval when reading the pre-image. Changing the key also resets the read offset to 0.

 The data is loaded into `PreimageOracle.sol` using the respective loading function based on the pre-image type.
 And then retrieved during execution of the `read` syscall.
