4c61ba40b9 build: check for sys/prctl.h in the proper way
Use AC_CHECK_HEADERS to check for the header, and include it only
if detected and the subsequent HAVE_SYS_PRCTL_H is set.

96ff9d6403 Can't log to debug log before chain params initialized
Add a function `AreBaseParamsConfigured` and use this to check
before writing to the debug log. This avoids assertions when the
application happens to log too early, which happens in the GUI.

Messages logged before the base parameters are configured can be
shown using `-printtoconsole`.

8ae973c00c Allocate more space if necessary in RandSeedAddPerfMon
Currently we use a fixed buffer of 250000 bytes to request
HKEY_PERFORMANCE_DATA. In many cases this is not enough, causing the
entropy collection to be skipped.

Use a loop that grows the buffer as specified in the RegQueryValueEx
documentation:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms724911%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

(as the size of the performance data can differ for every call, the
normal solution of requesting the size then allocating that can't work)

84ce18ca93 Remove unnecessary dependencies for bitcoin-cli
This commit removes all the unnecessary dependencies (key, core,
netbase, sync, ...) from bitcoin-cli.

To do this it shards the chain parameters into BaseParams, which
contains just the RPC port and data directory (as used by utils and
bitcoin-cli) and Params, with the rest.

does a re-throw at the end. Move these re-throws to the call
site, this aids understanding what is going on as well as eliminates a
bit of code duplication in util.cpp)

f48742c2bf Get rid of C99 PRI?64 usage in source files
Amend to d5f1e72. It turns out that BerkelyDB was including inttypes.h
indirectly, so we cannot fix this with just macros.

Trivial commit: apply the following script to all .cpp and .h files:

    # Middle
    sed -i 's/"PRIx64"/x/g' "$1"
    sed -i 's/"PRIu64"/u/g' "$1"
    sed -i 's/"PRId64"/d/g' "$1"
    # Initial
    sed -i 's/PRIx64"/"x/g' "$1"
    sed -i 's/PRIu64"/"u/g' "$1"
    sed -i 's/PRId64"/"d/g' "$1"
    # Trailing
    sed -i 's/"PRIx64/x"/g' "$1"
    sed -i 's/"PRIu64/u"/g' "$1"
    sed -i 's/"PRId64/d"/g' "$1"

After this commit, `git grep` for PRI.64 should turn up nothing except
the defines in util.h.

9e9056cd1a Remove -logtodebugger
`-logtodebugger` is a strange, obscure, WIN32-only (mostly MSVC) thing.
Let's clean up the options a bit get rid of it.

test_bitcoin was using fLogToDebugger as a way to prevent logging to
debug.log. For this, add a boolean (not exposed as option) fLogToDebugLog that
defaults to true and is disabled in the tests.

class template base_uint had its own private lookup table.
This is saving 256 bytes per instantiation.

The result is not spectacular as bitcoin-qt has only shrinked of

Also, I have replaced a for loop with a memset() call.

Since 0.8.4 we're still getting some reports of disk corruption on

 sync with the database. It turns out that we were still using fsync()
 on the block files, so this isn't surprising.

0e4b317555 Introduce a CChainParameters singleton class and regtest mode.
The new class is accessed via the Params() method and holds
most things that vary between main, test and regtest networks.
The regtest mode has two purposes, one is to run the
bitcoind/bitcoinj comparison tool which compares two separate
implementations of the Bitcoin protocol looking for divergence.

The other is that when run, you get a local node which can mine
a single block instantly, which is highly convenient for testing
apps during development as there's no need to wait 10 minutes for
a block on the testnet.

907a2aa4c7 Internal RNG for approximateBestSubset to prevent degenerate behavior.
This fixes test_bitcoin failures on openbsd reported by dhill on IRC.

  On some systems rand() is a simple LCG over 2^31 and so it produces
an even-odd sequence.  ApproximateBestSubset was only using the least
significant bit and so every run of the iterative solver would be the
same for some inputs, resulting in some pretty dumb decisions.

Using something other than the least significant bit would paper over
the issue but who knows what other way a system's rand() might get us
here.  Instead we use an internal RNG with a period of something like
2^60 which is well behaved.  This also makes it possible to make the
selection deterministic for the tests, if we wanted to implement that.

ee3374234c OutputDebugStringF code cleanup
Initialize the OutputDebugStringF mutex and file pointer using
boost::call_once, to be thread-safe.
Make the return value of OutputDebugStringF really be the number of
characters written (*printf() semantics).
Declare the fReopenDebugLog flag volatile, since it is changed from
a signal handler.
And don't declare OutputDebugStringF() as inline.

3fb9b99cca Allow lengthy block reconnections to be interrupted
When the coin database is out of date with the block database, the
best block in it is automatically switched to. This reconnection
process can take time, so allow it to be interrupted.

This also stops block connection as soon as shutdown is requested,
leading to a faster shutdown.

5350ea4171 update CClientUIInterface and remove orphan Wx stuff
- fix ThreadSafeMessageBox always displays error icon
- allow to specify MSG_ERROR / MSG_WARNING or MSG_INFORMATION without a
  custom caption / title
- allow to specify CClientUIInterface::ICON_ERROR / ICON_WARNING and
  ICON_INFORMATION (which is default) as message box icon
- remove CClientUIInterface::OK from ThreadSafeMessageBox-calls, as
  the OK button will be set as default, if none is specified
- prepend "Bitcoin - " to used captions
- rename BitcoinGUI::error() -> BitcoinGUI::message() and add function
  documentation
- change all style parameters and enum flags to unsigned
- update code to use that new API

- update Client- and WalletModel to use new BitcoinGUI::message() and
  rename the classes error() method into message()
- include the possibility to supply the wanted icon for messages from
  Client- and WalletModel via "style" parameter

0f8a647782 don't use memset() in privacy/security relevant code parts
As memset() can be optimized out by a compiler it should not be used in
privacy/security relevant code parts. OpenSSL provides the safe
OPENSSL_cleanse() function in crypto.h, which perfectly does the job of
clean and overwrite data.

For details see: http://www.viva64.com/en/b/0178/

- change memset() to OPENSSL_cleanse() where appropriate
- change a hard-coded number from netbase.cpp into a sizeof()

bba89aa82a Pre-allocate block and undo files in chunks
Introduce a AllocateFileRange() function in util, which wipes or
at least allocates a given range of a file. It can be overriden
by more efficient OS-dependent versions if necessary.

Block and undo files are now allocated in chunks of 16 and 1 MiB,
respectively.

Don't use hand-rolled string manipulation routine with a fixed
buffer in the bitcoin core, instead make use of c++ strings and boost.
