Return Code

Informs user about contract exit status:

Code	Exit Status
0	Stop
1	Return
2	Suicide
101	Bad Jump Destination
102	Out Of Gas
103	Stack Underflow
104	Bad Instruction

JIT Runtime Data

A set of data possibly needed by running contract, sometimes by the compiler itself. Can be called ExtVM data in C++, VMEnv data in Go.
