Saves about 10% of application memory usage once the mempool warms up. Since the
mempool is DynamicUsage-regulated, this will translate to a larger mempool in
the same amount of space.
Map value type: eliminate the vin index; no users of the map need to know which
input of the transaction is spending the prevout.
Map key type: replace the COutPoint with a pointer to a COutPoint. A COutPoint
is 36 bytes, but each COutPoint is accessible from the same map entry's value.
A trivial DereferencingComparator functor allows indirect map keys, but the
resulting syntax is misleading: `map.find(&outpoint)`. Implement an indirectmap
that acts as a wrapper to a map that uses a DereferencingComparator, supporting
a syntax that accurately reflect the container's semantics: inserts and
iterators use pointers since they store pointers and need them to remain
constant and dereferenceable, but lookup functions take const references.

Before this, if someone imported a scriptPubKey directly (in hex form) using
importaddress, outputs sending to it would be treated as change, as the
corresponding CTxDestination was not added to the address book.
Fix this by trying to detect scriptPubKeys that are in fact convertible to a
CTxDestination and add them anyway. Add a warning to the RPC help to warn
against importing raw non-standard scripts.

This reduces the rate of not founds by better matching the far
end expectations, it also improves privacy by removing the
ability to use getdata to probe for a node having a txn before
it has been relayed.
Previously the benchmark code used an integer division (%) with
a non-constant in the inner-loop. This is quite slow on many
processors, especially ones like ARM that lack a hardware divide.
Even on fairly recent x86_64 like haswell an integer division can
take something like 100 cycles-- making it comparable to the
runtime of siphash.
This change avoids the division by using bitmasking instead. This
was especially easy since the count was only increased by doubling.
This change also restarts the timing when the execution time was
very low this avoids mintimes of zero in cases where one execution
ends up below the timer resolution. It also reduces the impact of
the overhead on the final result.
The formatting of the prints is changed to not use scientific
notation make it more machine readable (in particular, gnuplot
croaks on the non-fixedpoint, and it doesn't sort correctly).
This also hoists out all the floating point divisions out of the
semi-hot path because it was easy to do so.
It might be prudent to break out the critical test into a macro
just to guarantee that it gets inlined. It might also make sense
to just save out the intermediate counts and times and get the
floating point completely out of the timing loop (because e.g.
on hardware without a fast hardware FPU like some ARM it will
still be slow enough to distort the results). I haven't done
either of these in this commit.

If a node is offline failed outbound connection attempts will crank up
the addrman counter and effectively blow away our state.
This change reduces the problem by only counting attempts made while
the node believes it has outbound connections to at least two
netgroups.
Connect and addnode connections are also not counted, as there is no
reason to unequally penalize them for their more frequent
connections -- though there should be no real effect from this
unless their addnode configureation is later removed.
Wasteful repeated connection attempts while only a few connections are
up are avoided via nLastTry.
This is still somewhat incomplete protection because our outbound
peers could be down but not timed out or might all be on 'local'
networks (although the requirement for multiple netgroups helps).
The ability to GETDATA a transaction which has not (yet) been relayed
is a privacy loss vector.
The use of the mempool for this was added as part of the mempool p2p
message and is only needed to fetch transactions returned by it.

The current logic for syncing headers may lead to lots of duplicate
getheaders requests being sent: If a new block arrives while the node
is in headers sync, it will send getheaders in response to the block
announcement. When the headers arrive, the message will be of maximum
size and so a follow-up request will be sent---all of that in addition
to the existing headers syncing. This will create a second "chain" of
getheaders requests. If more blocks arrive, this may even lead to
arbitrarily many parallel chains of redundant requests.
This patch changes the behaviour to only request more headers after a
maximum-sized message when it contained at least one unknown header.
This avoids sustaining parallel chains of redundant requests.
Note that this patch avoids the issues raised in the discussion of
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6821: There is no risk of the
node being permanently blocked. At the latest when a new block arrives
this will trigger a new getheaders request and restart syncing.
Verify that results correct (match known values), consistent (encrypt->decrypt
matches the original), and compatible with the previous openssl implementation.
Also check that failed encrypts/decrypts fail the exact same way as openssl.
Wallet must come before crypto, otherwise linking fails on some platforms.
Includes a tangentially-related general cleanup rather than making the Makefile
sloppier.
The output should always match openssl's, even for failed operations. Even for
a decrypt with broken padding, the output is always deterministic (and attemtps
to be constant-time).
My changes leave all tray icon and menu creation/initialization logic
untouched. It only shows or hides the icon according to the setting.
A new checkbox was added to the OptionsDialog under the Window tab. A
bool option named "hideTrayIcon" was added to OptionsModel. This
checkbox was mapped like other all options to the OptionsModel.
A signal was added to the OptionsModel for broadcasting changes the the
hideTrayIcon option. This signal was connected to a new slot added to
BitcoinGUI named setTrayIconVisible(bool). The slot simply hides or
shows the trayIcon in BitcoinGUI according to the parameter recieved.

* The "ERROR" was printed far too often during normal operation for what was not an error.
* Makes the Socks5() connect failure similar to the IP connect failure in debug.log.
Before:
`2016-05-09 00:15:00 ERROR: Proxy error: host unreachable`
After:
`2016-05-09 00:15:00 Socks5() connect to t6xj6wilh4ytvcs7.onion:18333 failed: host unreachable"`
Locking for each operation here is unnecessary, and solves the wrong problem.
Additionally, it introduces a problem when cs_vNodes is held in an owning
class, to which invididual CNodeRefs won't have access.
These should be weak pointers anyway, once vNodes contain shared pointers.
Rather than using a refcounting class, use a 3-step process instead.
1. Lock vNodes long enough to snapshot the fields necessary for comparing
2. Unlock and do the comparison
3. Re-lock and mark the resulting node for disconnection if it still exists

Some developers clearly don't get this and have been posting
"improvements" that create clear vulnerabilities. It should
have been better explained in the code, since the design
is somewhat subtle and getting it right is important.
This patch changes the implementation from one that stores 16 2-bit integers
in one uint32_t's, to one that stores the first bit of 64 2-bit integers in
one uint64_t and the second bit in another. This allows for 450x faster
refreshing and 2.2x faster average speed.
Change the few occurrences of the deprecated `auto_ptr` to c++11 `unique_ptr`.
Silences the deprecation warnings.
Also add a missing `std::` for consistency.
Bitwise logic combined with `<` with undefined signedness will
potentially results in undefined behavior. Fix this by defining the type
as a c++11 typed enum.
Fixes#6017.
f135e3c qt: Add transaction hash to details window title (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
17a6a21 qt: Make it possible to show details for multiple transactions (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
DumpBanList currently does this:
- with lock: take a copy of the banmap
- perform I/O (write out the banmap)
- with lock: mark the banmap non-dirty
If a new ban is added during the I/O operation, it may never be persisted to
disk.
Reorder operations so that the data to be persisted cannot be older than the
time at which the banmap was marked non-dirty.
I made a silly mistake in a database wrapper where keys
were sorted by char instead of uint8_t. As x86 char is signed
the sorting for the block index database was messed up, resulting
in a segfault due to missing records.
Add a test to catch:
- Wrong sorting
- Seeking errors
- Iteration result not complete
ActivateBestChain uses chainActive after releasing the lock; reorder operations
to move all access to synchronized object into existing LOCK(cs_main) block.
A small GUI annoyance for me has always been that it's impossible to
have multiple transaction detail windows open, for example to compare
transactions.
This patch makes the window non-modal so that it is possible to open
transaction details at will.

Using throw() specifications in function signatures is not only
not required in C++, it is considered deprecated for
[various reasons](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1055387/throw-keyword-in-functions-signature).
It is not implemented by any of the common C++ compilers. The usage is
also inconsistent with the rest of the source code.
Without this patch:
- When I compile the GUI from the bitcoin directory itself, it works as
expected.
- When I build the GUI in an out-of-tree build, I cannot get it to
select tabs. When I click, say the "Receive" tab nothing happens,
the button selects but it doesn't switch the page. The rest - even
the debug window - seems to work.
See full discussion here:
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7911#issuecomment-212413442
This turned out to be caused by a mismatch in the arguments to moc,
preventing it from finding `bitcoin-config.h`. Fix this by passing
`$(DEFAULT_INCLUDES)` to it, which gets set to the appropriate
path by autoconf itself.
SetString seems to be passing the length of the wrong variable to
memory_cleanse, resulting in the last byte of the temporary buffer not being
securely erased.
This will avoid sending more pointless INVs around updates, and
prevents using filter updates to timetag transactions.
Also adds locking for fRelayTxes.
By eliminating queued entries from the mempool response and responding only at
trickle time, this makes the mempool no longer leak transaction arrival order
information (as the mempool itself is also sorted)-- at least no more than
relay itself leaks it.
Previously we would assert that if every block in vBlockHashesToAnnounce is in
chainActive, then the blocks to be announced must connect. However, there are
edge cases where this assumption could be violated (eg using invalidateblock /
reconsiderblock), so just check for this case and revert to inv-announcement
instead.
Rather than allowing CNetAddr/CService/CSubNet to launch DNS queries, require
that addresses are already resolved.
This greatly simplifies async resolve logic, and makes it harder to
accidentally leak DNS queries.
Note: Some seeds aren't actually returning an IP for their name entries, so
they're being added to addrman with a source of [::].
This commit shouldn't change that behavior, for better or worse.
Previously Bitcoin would send 1/4 of transactions out to all peers
instantly. This causes high overhead because it makes >80% of
INVs size 1. Doing so harms privacy, because it limits the
amount of source obscurity a transaction can receive.
These randomized broadcasts also disobeyed transaction dependencies
and required use of the orphan pool. Because the orphan pool is
so small this leads to poor propagation for dependent transactions.
When the bypass wasn't in effect, transactions were sent in the
order they were received. This avoided creating orphans but
undermines privacy fairly significantly.
This commit:
Eliminates the bypass. The bypass is replaced by halving the
average delay for outbound peers.
Sorts candidate transactions for INV by their topological
depth then by their feerate (then hash); removing the
information leakage and providing priority service to
higher fee transactions.
Limits the amount of transactions sent in a single INV to
7tx/sec (and twice that for outbound); this limits the
harm of low fee transaction floods, gives faster relay
service to higher fee transactions. The 7 sounds lower
than it really is because received advertisements need
not be sent, and because the aggregate rate is multipled
by the number of peers.
leveldb's buildsystem causes us a few problems:
- breaks out-of-tree builds
- forces flags used for some tools
- limits cross builds
Rather than continuing to add wrappers around it, simply integrate it into our
build.

Remove the mistaken assumption that GetKey returning false signifies

Without the newline I see "bein" where the two lines are concatenated:
Note that all inputs selected must be of standard form and P2SH scripts must *bein* the wallet using importaddress or addmultisigaddress (to calculate fees).
swap was using an incorrect condition to determine when to apply an optimization
(not swapping the full direct[] when swapping two indirect prevectors).
Rather than correct the optimization I'm removing it for simplicity. Removing
this optimization minutely improves performance in the typical (currently only)
usage of member swap(), which is swapping with a freshly value-initialized
object.
Fixes a bug in which pop_back did not call the deleted item's destructor.
Using the most general erase() implementation to implement all the others
prevents similar bugs because the coupling between deallocation and destructor
invocation only needs to be maintained in one place.
Also reduces duplication of complex memmove logic.
The key (transaction id for the following outputs) should be serialized
to the HashWriter.
This is a problem as it means different transactions in the same
position with the same outputs will potentially result in the same hash.
Fixes primary concern of #7758.
Break the circular dependency between main and txdb by:
- Moving `CBlockFileInfo` from `main.h` to `chain.h`. I think this makes
sense, as the other block-file stuff is there too.
- Moving `CDiskTxPos` from `main.h` to `txdb.h`. This type seems
specific to txdb.
- Pass a functor `insertBlockIndex` to `LoadBlockIndexGuts`. This leaves
it up to the caller how to insert block indices.
Byte counts for SHA256, SHA512, SHA1 and RIPEMD160 must be 64 bits.
`size_t` has a different size per platform, causing divergent results
when hashing more than 4GB of data.
Add a method Cursor() to CCoinsView that returns a cursor which can be
used to iterate over the whole UTXO set.
- rpc: Change gettxoutsetinfo to use new Cursor method
- txdb: Remove GetStats method - Now that GetStats is implemented in
terms of Cursor, remove it.

85c807c getblockchaininfo: make bip9_softforks an object, not an array. (Rusty Russell)
We can't change "softforks", but it seems far more logical to use tags
in an object rather than using an "id" field in an array.
For example, to get the csv status before, you need to iterate the
array to find the entry with 'id' field equal to "csv":
jq '.bip9_softforks | map(select(.id == "csv"))[] | .status'
Now:
jq '.bip9_softforks.csv.status'
There is no issue with fork names being incompatible with JSON tags,
since we're selecting them ourselves.

Previously we used the CInv that would be sent to the peer announcing the
transaction as the key, but using the txid instead allows us to decouple the
p2p layer from the application logic (which relies on this map to avoid
duplicate tx requests).
The lockorder potential deadlock detection works by remembering for each
lock A that is acquired while holding another B the pair (A,B), and
triggering a warning when (B,A) already exists in the table.
A and B in the above text are represented by pointers to the CCriticalSection
object that is acquired. This does mean however that we need to clean up the
table entries that refer to any critical section which is destroyed, as it
memory address can potentially be used for another unrelated lock in the future.
Implement this clean up by remembering not only the pairs in forward direction,
but also backward direction. This allows for fast iteration over all pairs that
use a deleted CCriticalSection in either the first or the second position.
The current tests for varint only check that
serialization-deserialization is a roundtrip. That is a useful test, but
it is also good to check for some exact bit patterns, to prevent a code
change that changes the serialization format from going undetected.
As the varint functions are templated, also check with different types.

e4ba9f6 Version 2 transactions remain non-standard until CSV activates (Suhas Daftuar)
Currently, we're keeping a timeout for each requested block, starting
from when it is requested, with a correction factor for the number of
blocks in the queue.
That's unnecessarily complicated and inaccurate.
As peers process block requests in order, we can make the timeout for each
block start counting only when all previous ones have been received, and
have a correction based on the number of peers, rather than the total number
of blocks.
Two-line patch to make it possible to shut down bitcoind cleanly during
the initial ActivateBestChain.
Fixes#6459 (among other complaints).
To reproduce:
- shutdown bitcoind
- copy chainstate
- start bitcoind
- let the chain sync a bit
- shutdown bitcoind
- copy back old chainstate
- start bitcoind
- bitcoind will catch up with all blocks during Init()
(the `boost::this_thread::interruption_point` / `ShutdownRequested()`
dance is ugly, this should be refactored all over bitcoind at some point
when moving from boost::threads to c++11 threads, but it works...)
They claimed to be testing P2SH scripts with non-push scriptSigs, but

Continues #7307 for the non-wallet.
Ubuntu 16.04 "xenial xerus" does not come with Python 2.x by default.
It is possible to install a python-2.7 package, but this has its own
problem: no `python` or `python2` symlink (see #7717).
This fixes the following scripts to work with python 3:
- `make check` (bctest,py, bitcoin-util-test.py)
- `make translate` (extract_strings_qt.py)
- `make symbols-check` (symbol-check.py)
- `make security-check` (security-check.py)
Explicitly call the python commands using $(PYTHON) instead
of relying on the interpreter line at the top of the scripts.
The build date does only makes sense for custom/self-compiled bitcoin-core versions because we are using static build-dates for our deterministic release builds.
Having a quick option to get the current datadir is much more valuable for debug purposes.
The "feefilter" p2p message is used to inform other nodes of your mempool min fee which is the feerate that any new transaction must meet to be accepted to your mempool. This will allow them to filter invs to you according to this feerate.
Creates the generatetoaddress rpc which is virtually identical to the generate rpc except that it takes an argument for the address to mine to. It does not rely on wallet functionality.
The mining code shared by generate and generatetoaddress has been moved to another method to reduce duplication.
