fa06dfce0 [rpc] createrawtransaction: Accept sorted outputs (MarcoFalke)
8acd25d85 rpc: Allow typeAny in RPCTypeCheck (MarcoFalke)

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.

a7324bd799 Format timestamps using ISO 8601 formatting (e.g. "2018-02-28T12:34:56Z")
* Z is the zone designator for the zero UTC offset.
* T is the delimiter used to separate date and time.

This makes it clear for the end-user that the date/time logged is
specified in UTC and not in the local time zone.

Pull request description:

  This PR contains some of the changes left as TODO in #11167 (and built on top of that PR). They are not intended for backporting.

  This removes the `CBase58`, `CBitcoinSecret`, `CBitcoinExtKey`, and `CBitcoinExtPubKey` classes, in favor of simple `Encode`/`Decode` functions. Furthermore, all Bitcoin-specific logic (addresses, WIF, BIP32) is moved to `key_io.{h,cpp}`, leaving `base58.{h,cpp}` as a pure utility that implements the base58 encoding/decoding logic.

Merge #9037: net: Add test-before-evict discipline to addrman
e68172ed9 Add test-before-evict discipline to addrman (Ethan Heilman)

Pull request description:

  This change implement countermeasures 3 (test-before-evict) suggested in our paper: ["Eclipse Attacks on Bitcoin’s Peer-to-Peer Network"](http://cs-people.bu.edu/heilman/eclipse/).
  # Design:

  A collision occurs when an address, addr1, is being moved to the tried table from the new table, but maps to a position in the tried table which already contains an address (addr2). The current behavior is that addr1 would evict addr2 from the tried table.

  This change ensures that during a collision, addr1 is not inserted into tried but instead inserted into a buffer (setTriedCollisions). The to-be-evicted address, addr2, is then tested by [a feeler connection](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8282). If addr2 is found to be online, we remove addr1 from the buffer and addr2 is not evicted, on the other hand if addr2 is found be offline it is replaced by addr1.

  An additional small advantage of this change is that, as no more than ten addresses can be in the test buffer at once, and addresses are only cleared one at a time from the test buffer (at 2 minute intervals), thus an attacker is forced to wait at least two minutes to insert a new address into tried after filling up the test buffer. This rate limits an attacker attempting to launch an eclipse attack.
  # Risk mitigation:
  - To prevent this functionality from being used as a DoS vector, we limit the number of addresses which are to be tested to ten. If we have more than ten addresses to test, we drop new addresses being added to tried if they would evict an address. Since the feeler thread only creates one new connection every 2 minutes the additional network overhead is limited.
  - An address in tried gains immunity from tests for 4 hours after it has been tested or successfully connected to.
  # Tests:

  This change includes additional addrman unittests which test this behavior.

  I ran an instance of this change with a much smaller tried table (2 buckets of 64 addresses) so that collisions were much more likely and observed evictions.

  # Security Benefit

  This is was originally posted in PR #8282 see [this comment for full details](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8282#issuecomment-237255215).

  To determine the security benefit of these larger numbers of IPs in the tried table I modeled the attack presented in [Eclipse Attacks on Bitcoin’s Peer-to-Peer Network](https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/263).

  ![attackergraph40000-10-1000short-line](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/274814/17366828/372af458-595b-11e6-81e5-2c9f97282305.png)

  **Default node:** 595 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.
  **Default node + test-before-evict:** 620 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.
  **Feeler node:** 5540 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.
  **Feeler node + test-before-evict:** 8600 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.

  The node running feeler connections has 10 times as many online IP addresses in its tried table making an attack 10 times harder (i.e. requiring the an attacker require 10 times as many IP addresses in different /16s). Adding test-before-evict increases resistance of the node by an additional 3000 attacker IP addresses.

  Below I graph the attack over even greater attacker resources (i.e. more attacker controled IP addresses). Note that test-before-evict maintains some security far longer even against an attacker with 50,000 IPs. If this node had a larger tried table test-before-evict could greatly boost a nodes resistance to eclipse attacks.

Merge #10498: Use static_cast instead of C-style casts for non-fundamental types
9ad6746ccd Use static_cast instead of C-style casts for non-fundamental types (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  A C-style cast is equivalent to try casting in the following order:

  1. `const_cast(...)`
  2. `static_cast(...)`
  3. `const_cast(static_cast(...))`
  4. `reinterpret_cast(...)`
  5. `const_cast(reinterpret_cast(...))`

  By using `static_cast<T>(...)` explicitly we avoid the possibility of an unintentional and dangerous `reinterpret_cast`. Furthermore `static_cast<T>(...)` allows for easier grepping of casts.

  For a more thorough discussion, see ["ES.49: If you must use a cast, use a named cast"](https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines#es49-if-you-must-use-a-cast-use-a-named-cast) in the C++ Core Guidelines (Stroustrup & Sutter).

Pull request description:

  This implements a minimum viable implementation of SegWit wallet support, based on top of #11389, and includes part of the functionality from #11089.

  Two new configuration options are added:
  * `-addresstype`, with options `legacy`, `p2sh`, and `bech32`. It controls what kind of addresses are produced by `getnewaddress`, `getaccountaddress`, and `createmultisigaddress`.
  * `-changetype`, with the same options, and by default equal to `-addresstype`, that controls what kind of change is used.

  All wallet private and public keys can be used for any type of address. Support for address types dependent on different derivation paths will need a major overhaul of how our internal detection of outputs work. I expect that that will happen for a next major version.

  The above also applies to imported keys, as having a distinction there but not for normal operations is a disaster for testing, and probably for comprehension of users. This has some ugly effects, like needing to associate the provided label to `importprivkey` with each style address for the corresponding key.

  To deal with witness outputs requiring a corresponding redeemscript in wallet, three approaches are used:
  * All SegWit addresses created through `getnewaddress` or multisig RPCs explicitly get their redeemscripts added to the wallet file. This means that downgrading after creating a witness address will work, as long as the wallet file is up to date.
  * All SegWit keys in the wallet get an _implicit_ redeemscript added, without it being written to the file. This means recovery of an old backup will work, as long as you use new software.
  * All keypool keys that are seen used in transactions explicitly get their redeemscripts added to the wallet files. This means that downgrading after recovering from a backup that includes a witness address will work.

  These approaches correspond to solutions 3a, 1a, and 5a respectively from https://gist.github.com/sipa/125cfa1615946d0c3f3eec2ad7f250a2. As argued there, there is no full solution for dealing with the case where you both downgrade and restore a backup, so that's also not implemented.

  `dumpwallet`, `importwallet`, `importmulti`, `signmessage` and `verifymessage` don't work with SegWit addresses yet. They're remaining TODOs, for this PR or a follow-up. Because of that, several tests unexpectedly run with `-addresstype=legacy` for now.

Pull request description:

  This should fix #11822.

  It ended up bigger than I hoped for, but its not too gnarly. Note that "
  Require no cs_main lock for ProcessNewBlock/ActivateBestChain" is mostly pure code-movement.

This requires the removal of some very liberal (incorrect) cs_mains
sprinkled in some tests. It adds some chainActive.Tip() races, but
the tests are all single-threaded anyway.

Merge #11748: [Tests] Adding unit tests for GetDifficulty in blockchain.cpp.
3e1ee31 [Tests] Adding unit tests for GetDifficulty in blockchain.cpp. (sean)

Pull request description:

  blockchain.cpp has low unit test coverage. This commit is intended
  to start improving its code coverage to reasonable levels. One or more
  follow up commits will complete the task that this commit is starting
  (though the usefulness of this commit is not dependent upon later
  commits).

  Note that these tests were not written based upon a specification of how
  GetDifficulty *should* work, but rather how it actually *does* work. As
  a result, if there are any bugs in the current GetDifficulty
  implementation, these unit tests serve to lock them in rather than
  expose them.

  -- Why has blockchain.cpp been modified if this is a unit testing change?

  Since the existing GetDifficulty function relies on a global variable,
  chainActive, it was not suitable for unit testing purposes. Both the
  existing GetDifficulty function and the unit tests now call through to
  a new, more modular version of GetDifficulty that can work on any chain,
  not just chainActive.

  -- Why does blockchain_tests.cpp directly include blockchain.cpp instead
  of blockchain.h?

  While the new GetDifficulty function's signature is arguably better than
  the old one's, it still isn't great, and doesn't seem to warrant inclusion
  as part of the blockchain.h API, especially since only test code is
  directly using it. If a better way of exposing the new GetDifficulty
  function to unit tests exists, please mention it and the commit will be
  updated accordingly.

  -- Why is the test fixture named blockchain_difficulty_tests rather than
  blockchain_tests?

  The Bitcoin Core policy for naming unit test files is to match the the
  file under test ("blockchain" becomes "blockchain_tests"). While this
  commit complies with that, blockchain.cpp is a massive file, such that
  having all of the unit tests in one file will tend towards disorder.
  Since there will be a lot more tests added to this file, the intention
  is to divide up different types of tests into different test fixtures
  within the same file.

Merge #11879: [tests] remove redundant univalue_tests.cpp
2862b56 [tests] remove redundant univalue_tests.cpp (John Newbery)

Pull request description:

  univalue unit tests were added in #4730 , and exist at `/src/test/univalue_tests.cpp` (outside the univalue tree). That test was brought into the univalue repository in https://github.com/bitcoin-core/univalue/pull/4 , which was pulled into the github repository in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11420.

  That means that the univalue test exists in two places:
  1. `/src/test/univalue_tests.cpp`
  2. `/src/univalue/test/object.cpp`

  (2) is a strict superset of (1). It adds some macros to work around boost not being a univalue dependency, and adds a few extra lines of test.

  Therefore remove `/src/test/univalue_tests.cpp`

Merge #11220: Check specific validation error in miner tests
12781db [Tests] check specific validation error in miner tests (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  ## Problem

  `BOOST_CHECK_THROW` merely checks that some `std::runtime_error` is
  thrown, but not which one.

  Here's an example of how this can cause a test to pass when a developer
  introduces a consensus bug. The test for the sigops limit assumes
  that `CreateNewBlock` fails with `bad-blk-sigops`. However it can
  also fail with bad-txns-vout-negative, if a naive developer lowers
  `BLOCKSUBSIDY` to `1*COIN`.

  ## Solution

  `BOOST_CHECK_EXCEPTION` allows an additional predicate function. This
  commit uses this for all exceptions that are checked for in
  `miner_tets.cpp`:
  * `bad-blk-sigops`
  * `bad-cb-multiple`
  * `bad-txns-inputs-missingorspent`
  * `block-validation-failed`

  If the function throws a different error, the test will fail. Although the message produced by Boost is a bit [confusing](http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Test-BOOST-CHECK-EXCEPTION-error-message-still-vague-tt4683257.html#a4683554), it does show which error was actually thrown. Here's what the above `1*COIN` bug would result in:

  ## Other considerations

  A more elegant solution in my opinion would be to subclass `std::runtime_error` for each `INVALID_TRANSACTION` type, but this would involve touching consensus code.

  I put the predicates in `test_bitcoin.h` because I assume they can be reused in other test files. However [serialize_tests.cpp](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/v0.15.0rc3/src/test/serialize_tests.cpp#L245) also uses `BOOST_CHECK_EXCEPTION` and it defines the predicate in the test file itself.

  Instead of four `IsRejectInvalidReasonX(std::runtime_error const& e)` functions, I'd prefer something reusable like `bool IsRejectInvalidReason(String reason)(std::runtime_error const& e)`, which would be used like `BOOST_CHECK_EXCEPTION(functionThatThrows(), std::runtime_error, IsRejectInvalidReason("bad-blk-sigops")`. I couldn't figure out how to do that in C++.
