25b7ab9 doc: Add release notes for -includeconf (Karl-Johan Alm)
0f0badd test: Test includeconf parameter. (Karl-Johan Alm)
629ff8c -includeconf=<path> support in config handler, for including external configuration files (Karl-Johan Alm)
Pull request description:
Fixes: #10071.
Done:
- adds `-includeconf=<path>`, where `<path>` is relative to `datadir` or to the path of the file being read, if in a file
- protects against circular includes
- updates help docs
~~~Thoughts:~~~
- ~~~I am not sure how to test this in a neat manner. Feedback on this would be nice. Will dig/think though.~~~

Pull request description:
This does a bit of refactoring of the configuration handling code in order to add additional tests to make adding support for [test]/[regtest] sections in the config file in #11862 easier. Should not cause any behaviour changes.

Pull request description:
This continues the work of #7965. This PR, along with several others, would remove the remaining dependencies from libbitcoin_server.a on libbitcoin_wallet.a.
To create the interface, I've just translated all the old init.cpp wallet function calls into an interface class. I've not done any thinking about whether it makes sense to change that interface by combining/splitting those calls. This is a purely internal interface, so there's no problem in changing it later.

This commit creates a global g_wallet_init_interface, which is created
in bitcoind and bitcoin-qt. g_wallet_init_interface is used to init
and destroy the wallet.
This removes the dependency from init.cpp on the wallet library.
This resolves#12229 which pointed out a shutdown deadlock due to
scheduler/checkqueue having been shut down while network message
processing is still running.
90d4d89 scripted-diff: Use the C++11 keyword nullptr to denote the pointer literal instead of the macro NULL (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Since C++11 the macro `NULL` may be:
* an integer literal with value zero, or
* a prvalue of type `std::nullptr_t`
By using the C++11 keyword `nullptr` we are guaranteed a prvalue of type `std::nullptr_t`.
For a more thorough discussion, see "A name for the null pointer: nullptr" (Sutter &
Stroustrup), http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2007/n2431.pdf
With this patch applied there are no `NULL` macro usages left in the repo:
```
$ git grep NULL -- "*.cpp" "*.h" | egrep -v '(/univalue/|/secp256k1/|/leveldb/|_NULL|NULLDUMMY|torcontrol.*NULL|NULL cert)' | wc -l
0
```
The road towards `nullptr` (C++11) is split into two PRs:
* `NULL` → `nullptr` is handled in PR #10483 (scripted, this PR)
* `0` → `nullptr` is handled in PR #10645 (manual)

This resolves a possible-assert-on-shutdown race introduced in
1f668b6468 when early shutdown
occurs.
Previously this was not done to avoid any cases where the
threadGroup might not exit due to a blocking thread, but at this
point the threadGroup isn't used all that much, plus Qt already
does this, and its good to keep their init/shutdown consistent.
For those curious, the threadGroup is only used in a few places:
* Its used to run the CCheckQueues in script validation, but these
use the boost mutex/condition variable primitives, so they
respect the interrupt pretty trivially.
* Its used for the import thread, which should exit rather quickly
as mostly it just calls LoadExternalBlockFile, which has an
interruption_point right before each block loaded.
* Its used in the scheduler thread, which is only used for:
* validationinterface has an effectively-dummy reference to it.
* wallet compaction, which should not last long
* addr/banlist dumping from CConnman, which should also be fast
Alternative to #10818, alternative solution to #10815.
After this change: All the AppInit steps before and inclusive
AppInitLockDataDirectory must not have Shutdown() called in case of
failure. Only when AppInitMain fails, Shutdown should be called.
Changes the GUI and bitcoind code to consistently do this.
The current message is not helpful. Hardly anyone even remembers that
bitcoind used to be a cli utility, let alone new users. Print what the
actual problem is.

16ca0bf init: Try to aquire datadir lock before and after daemonization (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
0cc8b6b init: Split up AppInit2 into multiple phases (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
- `--help`, `--version` etc should exit with `0` i.e. no error ("not enough args" case should still trigger an error)
- error reading config file should exit with `1`
Slightly refactor AppInitRPC/AppInitRawTx to return standard exit codes (EXIT_FAILURE/EXIT_SUCCESS) or CONTINUE_EXECUTION (-1)
Simplified version of #8278. Assumes that every OS that (a) is supported
by Bitcoin Core (b) supports daemonization has the `daemon()` function
in its C library.
- Removes the fallback path for operating systems that support
daemonization but not `daemon()`. This prevents never-exercised code from
ending up in the repository (see discussion here:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8278#issuecomment-242704745).
- Removes the windows-specific path. Windows doesn't support `daemon()`,
so it don't support daemonization there, automatically.
