Merge #13570: RPC: Add new "getzmqnotifications" method
161e8d40a4 RPC: Add new getzmqnotifications method. (Daniel Kraft)
caac39b0ac Make ZMQ notification interface instance global. (Daniel Kraft)

Pull request description:

  This adds a new RPC method `getzmqnotifications`, which returns information about all active ZMQ notification endpoints.  This is useful for software that layers on top of bitcoind, so it can verify that ZeroMQ is enabled and also figure out where it should listen.

  See #13526.

bad068ad9f build: Build system changes to support only Qt5 (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Pull request description:

  Implements #8263.

  Qt4.x has been EOL since 2015, and at least Gentoo has, or is going to drop support for it. I wouldn't be surprised if other Linux distributions follow.

  This removes Qt4 detection from the build system, as well as removes all Qt4 fallbacks from the code. Turns out there's more than I expected: this is going to make maintenance of the GUI code, as well as adding new features significantly easier.

  (I know there's still some references left to qt4 in RPM and Debian build script, but I don't have the knowledge how to fix them)

906bee8e5f Use bracket syntax includes ("#include <foo.h>") (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  When analysing includes in the project it is often assumed that the preferred bracket include syntax (`#include <foo.h>`) mentioned in `developer-docs.md` is used consistently. @sipa:s excellent circular dependencies script [`circular-dependencies.py`](50c69b7801/contrib/devtools/circular-dependencies.py) (#13228) is an example of a script making this reasonable assumption.

  This PR enables automatic Travis checking of the include syntax making sure that the bracket syntax includes (`#include <foo.h>`) is used consistently.

Merge #13043: [qt] OptionsDialog: add prune setting
cbede7dbfd [qt] OptionsDialog: add prune setting (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  The default suggested value is 2 GB. Minimum is 1 GB (550 MB rounded up).

  When the user toggles this setting, a strong warning appears that undoing requires re-downloading the chain:

  <img width="478" alt="schermafbeelding 2018-05-15 om 12 35 24" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10217/40051858-7939cc20-583c-11e8-9120-327a75376732.png">

  Tooltip points out that actual disk usage can be higher. It's a bit vague on the "advanced features", because I'm assuming anyone who needs to use `-rescan` and `-txindex` will read the documentation, and a more detailed text would needlessly confuse everyone else.

  <img width="450" alt="schermafbeelding 2018-05-15 om 12 33 51" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10217/40051791-49d6156a-583c-11e8-97b9-7de6dfd8c481.png">

  The UI uses gigabytes for readability and easy of use. There is also no manual pruning UI (`prune=1`). The user will have to use `bitcoin.conf` for those things.

  Fixes #6461. When combined with #13029 the user, after pruning their node, can safely reset settings and/or use bitcoind without having to edit `bitcoin.conf`. However I don't think that's an essential prerequisite.

docs: Linked to the 'Building on FreeBSD' section of the Unix guide where it lists BSD specific guides.

Created a FreeBSD build guide (doc/build-freebsd.md).

Added in warning about the version of 'gdb' installed by default.

Removed the FreeBSD build instructions now that they have their own guide (doc/build-freebsd.md).

Updated the sentence to refer to the BSD guides in the 'doc' directory for more specific BSD build instructions.

Minor grammatical fix.

Merge #13281: test: Move linters to test/lint, add readme
fa3c910bfe test: Move linters to test/lint, add readme (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  This moves the checks and linters from `devtools` to a subfolder in `test`. (Motivated by my opinion that the dev tools are mostly for generating code and updating the repo whereas the linters are read-only checks.)

  Also, adds a readme to clarify that checks and linters are only meant to prevent bugs and user facing issues, not merely stylistic preference or inconsistencies. (This is motivated by the diversity in developers and work flows as well as existing code styles. It would be too disruptive to change all existing code to a single style or too burdensome to force all developers to adhere to a single style. Also note that our style guide is changing, so locking in at the wrong style "too early" would only waste resources.)

fe16dd8226 net: Add option `-enablebip61` to configure sending of BIP61 notifications (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Pull request description:

  This commit adds a boolean option `-peersendreject`, defaulting to `1`, that can be used to disable the sending of [BIP61](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0061.mediawiki) `reject` messages. This functionality has been requested for various reasons:

  - security (DoS): reject messages can reveal internal state that can be used to target certain resources such as the mempool more easily.

  - bandwidth: a typical node sends lots of reject messages; this counts against upstream bandwidth. Also the reject messages tend to be larger than the message that was rejected.

  On the other hand, reject messages can be useful while developing client software (I found them indispensable while creating bitcoin-submittx), as well as for our own test cases, so whatever the default becomes on the long run, IMO the functionality should be retained as option. But that's a discussion for later, for now it's simply a node operator decision.

  Also adds a RPC test that checks the functionality.

Merge #12729: Get rid of ambiguous OutputType::NONE value
1e46d8a Get rid of ambiguous OutputType::NONE value (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  Based on suggestion by @sipa https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12119#issuecomment-357982763

  After #12119, the NONE output type was overloaded to refer to either an output type that couldn't be parsed, or to an automatic change output mode.  This change drops the NONE enum and uses a simple bool to indicate parse failure, and a new CHANGE_AUTO enum to refer the change output type.

  This change is almost a pure refactoring except it makes RPCs reject empty string ("") address types instead of treating them like they were unset. This simplifies the parsing code a little bit and could prevent RPC usage mistakes. It's noted in the release notes.

  Follows up #12408 by @MarcoFalke

Pull request description:

  Currently our wallet code will treat bare multisig outputs (meaning scriptPubKeys with multiple public keys + `OP_CHECKMULTISIG` operator in it) as ours without the user asking for it, as long as all private keys in it are in our wallet.

  This is a pointless feature. As it only works when all private keys are in one place, it's useless compared to single key outputs (P2PK, P2PKH, P2WPKH, P2SH-P2WPKH), and worse in terms of space, cost, UTXO size, and ability to test (due to lack of address format for them).

  Furthermore, they are problematic in that producing a list of all `scriptPubKeys` we accept is not tractable (it involves all combinations of all public keys that are ours). In further wallet changes I'd like to move to a model where all scriptPubKeys that are treated as ours are explicit, rather than defined by whatever keys we have. The current behavior of the wallet is very hard to model in such a design, so I'd like to get rid of it.

  I think there are two options:
  * Remove it entirely (do not ever accept bare multisig outputs as ours, unless watched)
  * Only accept bare multisig outputs in situations where the P2SH version of that output would also be acceptable

  This PR implements the first option. The second option was explored in #12874.

Pull request description:

  Deprecate all accounts functionality and make it only accessible by using `-deprecatedrpc=accounts`.

  Accounts specific RPCs, account arguments, and account related results all require the `-deprecatedrpc=accunts` startup option now in order to see account things.

  Several wallet functional tests use the accounts system. Those tests are unchanged, except to start the nodes with `-deprecatedrpc=accounts`. We can slowly migrate those tests to use the 'label' API instead of the 'account' API before accounts are fully removed.

Merge #12982: Fix inconsistent namespace formatting guidelines
cd0e1e91dd Fix inconsistent namespace formatting guidelines (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  Suggested formatting for namespaces in the developer guide is currently inconsistent. This commit updates the developer guide and clang-format configuration to consistently put "namespace" and opening/closing braces on the same line. Example:

  ```c++
  namespace boost {
  namespace signals2 {
  class connection;
  } // namespace signals2
  } // namespace boost
  ```

  Currently the [Source code organization](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/developer-notes.md#source-code-organization) section has an example like the one above, but the [Coding style](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/developer-notes.md#coding-style) section example and description put a newline between the opening "namespace foo" and brace (but oddly no newline between closing namespace and brace).

  Avoiding newlines before namespace opening braces makes nested declarations less verbose and also avoids asymmetry with closing braces. It's also a common style used in our own and other codebases:

  * https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html#Namespaces
  * https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Coding_Style#Classes

Pull request description:

  The weekly meeting on [2017-12-07](http://www.erisian.com.au/meetbot/bitcoin-core-dev/2017/bitcoin-core-dev.2017-12-07-19.00.log.html) discussed allowing options to bitcoin to have some sensitivity to what network is in use. @theuni suggested having sections in the config file:

      <cfields> an alternative to that would be sections in a config file. and on the
                cmdline they'd look like namespaces. so, [testnet] port=5. or -testnet::port=5.

  This approach is (more or less) supported by `boost::program_options::detail::config_file_iterator` -- when it sees a `[testnet]` section with `port=5`, it will treat that the same as "testnet.port=5". So `[testnet] port=5` (or `testnet.port=5` without the section header) in bitcoin.conf and `-testnet.port=5` on the command line.

  The other aspect to this question is possibly limiting some options so that there is no possibility of accidental cross-contamination across networks. For example, if you're using a particular wallet.dat on mainnet, you may not want to accidentally use the same wallet on testnet and risk reusing keys.

  I've set this up so that the `-addnode` and `-wallet` options are `NETWORK_ONLY`, so that if you have a bitcoin.conf:

      wallet=/secret/wallet.dat
      upnp=1

  and you run `bitcoind -testnet` or `bitcoind -regtest`, then the `wallet=` setting will be ignored, and should behave as if your bitcoin.conf had specified:

      upnp=1

      [main]
      wallet=/secret/wallet.dat

  For any `NETWORK_ONLY` options, if you're using `-testnet` or `-regtest`, you'll have to add the prefix to any command line options. This was necessary for `multiwallet.py` for instance.

  I've left the "default" options as taking precedence over network specific ones, which might be backwards. So if you have:

      maxmempool=200
      [regtest]
      maxmempool=100

  your maxmempool will still be 200 on regtest. The advantage of doing it this way is that if you have `[regtest] maxmempool=100` in bitcoin.conf, and then say `bitcoind -regtest -maxmempool=200`, the same result is probably in line with what you expect...

  The other thing to note is that I'm using the chain names from `chainparamsbase.cpp` / `ChainNameFromCommandLine`, so the sections are `[main]`, `[test]` and `[regtest]`; not `[mainnet]` or `[testnet]` as might be expected.

  Thoughts? Ping @MeshCollider @laanwj @jonasschnelli @morcos

Pull request description:

  Since there is no harm in having "duplicate" includes and it makes it obvious what are the dependencies of each file, without having to do static analysis or jumping between files, I'd suggest to revert the travis check for duplicate includes.

  Generally, I think that enforcing minor style preferences should not be done via travis. The cost of maintaining and the burden on other developers is too high. C.f discussion in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10973#discussion_r180142594

1e46d8ae89 Get rid of ambiguous OutputType::NONE value
Based on suggestion by Pieter Wuille <pieter.wuille@gmail.com> at
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12119#issuecomment-357982763

After #12119, the NONE output type was overloaded to refer to either an output
type that couldn't be parsed, or to an automatic change output mode.  This
change drops the NONE enum and uses a simple bool indicate parse failure, and a
new CHANGE_AUTO enum to refer the change output type.

This change is almost a pure refactoring except it makes RPCs reject empty
string ("") address types instead of treating them like they were unset. This
simplifies the parsing code a little bit and could prevent RPC usage mistakes.
It's noted in the release notes.

Pull request description:

  This is a refactoring PR that does not change behavior in any way. This change:

  1. Creates abstract [`Node`](https://github.com/ryanofsky/bitcoin/blob/pr/ipc-local/src/interface/node.h) and [`Wallet`](https://github.com/ryanofsky/bitcoin/blob/pr/ipc-local/src/interface/wallet.h) interfaces in [`src/interface/`](https://github.com/ryanofsky/bitcoin/tree/pr/ipc-local/src/interface)
  1. Updates Qt code to call the new interfaces. This largely consists of diffs of the form:

  ```diff
  -    InitLogging();
  -    InitParameterInteraction();
  +    node.initLogging();
  +    node.initParameterInteraction();
  ```

  This change allows followup PR #10102 (makes `bitcoin-qt` control `bitcoind` over an IPC socket) to work without any significant updates to Qt code. Additionally:

  * It provides a single place to describe the interface between GUI and daemon code.
  * It can make better GUI testing possible, because Node and Wallet objects have virtual methods that can be overloaded for mocking.
  * It can be used to help make the GUI more responsive (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/10504)

  Other notes:

  * I used python scripts [hide-globals.py](https://github.com/ryanofsky/home/blob/master/src/2017/hide-globals/hide-globals.py) and [replace-syms.py](https://github.com/ryanofsky/home/blob/master/src/2017/hide-globals/replace-syms.py) to identify all the places where Qt code was accessing libbitcoin global variables and calling functions accessing those global variables.
  * These changes were originally part of #10102. Thanks to @JeremyRubin for the suggestion of splitting them out.

  Changes:
  * Add note about test suite naming convention
  * Fix exceptions
  * Add regression test

  Rationale:
  * Consistent naming of test suites makes programmatic test running of specific tests/subsets of tests easier
  * Explicit is better than implicit

  Before this commit:

  ```
  $ contrib/devtools/lint-tests.sh
  The test suite in file src/test/foo_tests.cpp should be named
  "foo_tests". Please make sure the following test suites follow
  that convention:

  src/test/blockchain_tests.cpp:BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_SUITE(blockchain_difficulty_tests, BasicTestingSetup)
  src/test/prevector_tests.cpp:BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_SUITE(PrevectorTests, TestingSetup)
  src/wallet/test/coinselector_tests.cpp:BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_SUITE(coin_selection_tests, WalletTestingSetup)
  src/wallet/test/crypto_tests.cpp:BOOST_FIXTURE_TEST_SUITE(wallet_crypto, BasicTestingSetup)
  $
  ```

  After this commit:

  ```
  $ contrib/devtools/lint-tests.sh
  $
  ```

Merge #12692: Add configure options for various -fsanitize flags
6feb46c Add --with-sanitizers option to configure (Evan Klitzke)

Pull request description:

  This adds configure options for `-fsanitize=address`, `-fsanitize=thread`, and `-fsanitize=undefined` which are all disabled by default. These flags are useful for developers who wish to do additional safety checking. Note that some of these are mutually incompatible, and these may have a large performance overhead.

  There's some kind of strange logic required to properly check for the availability of these flags in a way that works on both GCC and Clang, hopefully the comments make it clear what's going on.

Merge #12759: [Docs] Improve formatting of developer notes
0bd2ec5 Improve formatting of developer notes (Evan Klitzke)

Pull request description:

  The developer notes file has gotten pretty large and unwieldly. This reorganizes some content, most notably by adding a TOC to the page. Compare how the page looks in [my branch](https://github.com/eklitzke/bitcoin/blob/developer-notes/doc/developer-notes.md) vs [master](https://github.com/eklitzke/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/developer-notes.md).

  I know there's long-term interest in moving a lot of this content to the bitcoin-core/docs repo on GitHub, but this makes things better now.

  The TOC format here is a semi-standard extension to Markdown files that you may have seen on GitHub pages in other projects. The `<!-- markdown-toc -->` comments used by these tools to know where the TOC starts/ends. The following tools all understand this format:

   * [Sphinx](http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/)
   * [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/)
   * [markdown-toc.el](https://github.com/ardumont/markdown-toc) (what I used)
   * various plugins for [vim](https://github.com/mzlogin/vim-markdown-toc) and other editors

  I used this TOC extension at a previous job, and my observation is that it's fine if people just edit the TOC manually. It's just text and it's not a huge deal if it gets a little out of sync. It can also be regenerated at any time by anyone with any of these tools.

Increase LevelDB max_open_files unless on 32-bit Unix.
This change significantly increases IBD performance by increasing the
amount of the UTXO index that can remain in memory. To ensure this
doesn't cause problems in the future, a static_assert on the LevelDB
version has been added, which must be updated by anyone upgrading
LevelDB.

bc6fdf2 Change all python files to use Python3 (John Newbery)

Pull request description:

  Following discussion here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11843#issuecomment-351033742

  It's easier for maintainers if all python tools/scripts support only a single version of Python. There are only a few scripts that aren't explicitly python3 at this point, so this PR changes those remaining scripts to explicitly require python3.

Pull request description:

  Made these simplifications while reviewing #12714. This aims to make `CKeyStore` a *pure* interface:
   - no variable members - the mutex is moved to `CBasicKeyStore` which is where it is used;
   - no method implementations - `AddKey(const CKey &)` is moved to `CBasicKeyStore` which is where it is needed.

Merge #11536: Rename account to label where appropriate
d2527bd Rename wallet_accounts.py test (Russell Yanofsky)
045eeb8 Rename account to label where appropriate (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  Rename account to label where appropriate

  This change only updates strings and adds RPC aliases, but should simplify the implementation of address labels in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7729, by getting renaming out of the way and letting that change focus on semantics.

  The difference between accounts and labels is that labels apply only to addresses, while accounts apply to both addresses and transactions (transactions have "from" and "to" accounts). The code associating accounts with transactions is clumsy and unreliable so we would like get rid of it.

Pull request description:

  The second parameter of the `createrawtransaction` is a dictionary of the outputs. This comes with at least two drawbacks:

  * In case of duplicate keys, either of them might silently disappear, with no user feedback at all. A user needs to make other mistakes, but this could eventually lead to abnormal tx fees.
  * A dictionary does not guarantee that keys are sorted. Again, a user needs to keep this in mind, as it could eventually lead to excessive tx fees.

  Even though my scenario of loss-of-funds is unlikely to happen, I see it as a inconvenience that should be fixed.
