After discussion in #7164 I think this is better.
Max tip age was introduced in #5987 to make it possible to run
testnet-in-a-box. But associating this behavior with the testnet chain
is wrong conceptually, as it is not needed in normal usage.
Should aim to make testnet test the software as-is.
Replace it with a (debug) option `-maxtipage`, which can be
specified only in the specific case.
d812daf fix logic for error log (accraze)
c611acc wallet: check if tx scriptPubKey is unspendable (accraze)
b6915b8 checks for null data transaction before debug.log (accraze)
CWalletTx::GetAmounts could not find output address for null data transactions, thus issuing an error in debug.log. This change checks to see if the transaction is OP_RETURN before issuing error.
resolves#6142
We used to have a trickle node, a node which was chosen in each iteration of
the send loop that was privileged and allowed to send out queued up non-time
critical messages. Since the removal of the fixed sleeps in the network code,
this resulted in fast and attackable treatment of such broadcasts.
This pull request changes the 3 remaining trickle use cases by random delays:
* Local address broadcast (while also removing the the wiping of the seen filter)
* Address relay
* Inv relay (for transactions; blocks are always relayed immediately)
The code is based on older commits by Patrick Strateman.
- Avoids string typos (by making the compiler check)
- Makes it easier to grep for handling/generation of a certain message type
- Refer directly to documentation by following the symbol in IDE
- Move list of valid message types to protocol.cpp:
protocol.cpp is a more appropriate place for this, and having
the array there makes it easier to keep things consistent.

Some extra bytes in libconsensus to get all the crypto (except for signing, which is in the common module) below the libconsensus future independent repo (that has libsecp256k1 as a subtree).
hmac_sha256.o seems to be the only thing libbitcoinconsensus doesn't depend on from crypto, some more bytes for the final libconsensus: I'm not personally worried.
A further pass over the available inputs has been added to ApproximateBestSubset after a candidate set has been found. It will prune any extraneous inputs in the selected subset, in order to decrease the number of input and the resulting change.
Mempool requests use a fair amount of bandwidth when the mempool is large,
disconnecting peers using them follows the same logic as disconnecting
peers fetching historical blocks.

One test in AcceptToMemoryPool was to compare a transaction's fee
agains the value returned by GetMinRelayFee. This value was zero for
all small transactions. For larger transactions (between
DEFAULT_BLOCK_PRIORITY_SIZE and MAX_STANDARD_TX_SIZE), this function
was preventing low fee transactions from ever being accepted.
With this function removed, we will now allow transactions in that range
with fees (including modifications via PrioritiseTransaction) below
the minRelayTxFee, provided that they have sufficient priority.
Redo the feerate index to be based on mining score, rather than fee.
Update mempool_packages.py to test prioritisetransaction's effect on
package scores.
- Add new translations (finally, after a long time)
- update-translation script was not considering new translations - oops
- fixed this, also remove (nearly) empty translations
- Update translation process, it was still describing the old repository
structure
Use the score index on the mempool to only add sorted txs in order. Remove much of the validation while building the block, relying on mempool to be consistent and only contain txs that can be mined.
The mempool is assumed to be consistent as far as not containing txs which spend non-existent outputs or double spends, and scripts are valid. Finality of txs is still checked (except not coinbase maturity, assumed in mempool).
Still TestBlockValidity in case mempool consistency breaks and return error state if an invalid block was created.
Unit tests are modified to realize that invalid blocks can now be constructed if the mempool breaks its consistency assumptions and also updated to have the right fees, since the cached value is now used for block construction.
Conflicts:
src/miner.cpp
The score index is meant to represent the order of priority for being included in a block for miners. Initially this is set to the transactions modified (by any feeDelta) fee rate. Index improvements and unit tests by sdaftuar.
Store sum of legacy and P2SH sig op counts. This is calculated in AcceptToMemory pool and storing it saves redoing the expensive calculation in block template creation.
But keep translating them in the GUI.
This - necessarily - requires duplication of a few messages.
Alternative take on #7134, that keeps the translations from being wiped.
Also document GetWarnings() input argument.
Fixes#5895.

Mruset setInventoryKnown was reduced to a remarkably small 1000
entries as a side effect of sendbuffer size reductions in 2012.
This removes setInventoryKnown filtering from merkleBlock responses
because false positives there are especially unattractive and
also because I'm not sure if there aren't race conditions around
the relay pool that would cause some transactions there to
be suppressed. (Also, ProcessGetData was accessing
setInventoryKnown without taking the required lock.)
This replaces using inv messages to announce new blocks, when a peer requests
(via the new "sendheaders" message) that blocks be announced with headers
instead of inv's.
Since headers-first was introduced, peers send getheaders messages in response
to an inv, which requires generating a block locator that is large compared to
the size of the header being requested, and requires an extra round-trip before
a reorg can be relayed. Save time by tracking headers that a peer is likely to
know about, and send a headers chain that would connect to a peer's known
headers, unless the chain would be too big, in which case we revert to sending
an inv instead.
Based off of @sipa's commit to announce all blocks in a reorg via inv,
which has been squashed into this commit.

This allows for much finer control of the transaction fees per kilobyte
as it prevent small transactions using a fee that is more appropriate
for one that is of a kilobyte.
This also allows controlling the fee per kilobyte over rpc such that:
bitcoin-cli settxfee `bitcoin-cli estimatefee 2`
would make sense, while currently it grossly fails often by a factor of x3
For each 'bit' in the filter we really maintain 2 bits, which store either:
0: not set
1-3: set in generation N
After (nElements / 2) insertions, we switch to a new generation, and wipe
entries which already had the new generation number, effectively switching
from the last 1.5 * nElements set to the last 1.0 * nElements set.
This is 25% more space efficient than the previous implementation, and can
(at peak) store 1.5 times the requested amount of history (though only
1.0 times the requested history is guaranteed).
The existing unit tests should be sufficient.
This switches the Merkle tree logic for blocks to one that runs in constant (small) space.
The old code is moved to tests, and a new test is added that for various combinations of
block sizes, transaction positions to compute a branch for, and mutations:
* Verifies that the old code and new code agree for the Merkle root.
* Verifies that the old code and new code agree for the Merkle branch.
* Verifies that the computed Merkle branch is valid.
* Verifies that mutations don't change the Merkle root.
* Verifies that mutations are correctly detected.

This makes sure that retransmits by a whitelisted peer also actually
result in a retransmit.
Further, this changes the logic to never relay in case we would assign
a DoS score, as we expect to get DoS banned ourselves as a result.
Adds 127.0.0.1:9050 for the .onion proxy if we can succesfully connect
to the control port.
Natural followup to creating hidden services automatically.
Previously all of these functions could return negative values (for different
readons). Large portions of the codebase currently assume that these
functions return positive values.
Previously peers which implement a protocol version less than NO_BLOOM_VERSION
would not be disconnected for sending a filter command, regardless of the
peerbloomfilter option.
Many node operators do not wish to provide expensive bloom filtering for SPV
clients, previously they had to cherry pick the commit which enabled the
disconnect logic.
The default should remain false until a sufficient percent of SPV clients
have updated.

2) Also pickup more Params()\. in main.cpp
3) Pass nPruneAfterHeight explicitly to new FindFilesToPrune() in main.cpp
The setAskFor duplicate elimination was too eager and removed entries
when we still had no getdata response, allowing the peer to keep
INVing and not responding.
mapAlreadyAskedFor does not keep track of which peer has a request queued for a
particular tx. As a result, a peer can blind a node to a tx indefinitely by
sending many invs for the same tx, and then never replying to getdatas for it.
Each inv received will be placed 2 minutes farther back in mapAlreadyAskedFor,
so a short message containing 10 invs would render that tx unavailable for 20
minutes.
This is fixed by disallowing a peer from having more than one entry for a
particular inv in mapAlreadyAskedFor at a time.

Previously in blocks only mode all inv messages where type!=MSG_BLOCK would be
rejected without regard for whitelisting or whitelistalwaysrelay.
As such whitelisted peers would never send the transaction (which would be
processed).
Compute the value of inputs that already are in the chain at time of mempool entry and only increase priority due to aging for those inputs. This effectively changes the CTxMemPoolEntry's GetPriority calculation from an upper bound to a lower bound.
It's possible coins with the same hash exist when you create a duplicate coinbase, so previously we were reading from the database to make sure we had the old coins cached so if we were to spend the new ones, the old ones would also be spent. This pull instead just marks the new coins as not fresh if they are from a coinbase, so if they are spent they will be written all the way down to the database anyway overwriting any duplicates.
Previously it would break if you flushed a parent cache while there was a child cache referring to it. This change will allow the flushing of parent caches.

This provides more conservative estimates and reacts more quickly to a backlog.
Unfortunately the unit test for fee estimation depends on the success threshold (and the decay) chosen; also modify the unit test for the new default success thresholds.
These are more useful fee and priority estimation functions. If there is no fee/pri high enough for the target you are aiming for, it will give you the estimate for the lowest target that you can reliably obtain. This is better than defaulting to the minimum. It will also pass back the target for which it returned an answer.
