Logic:
- If sending a transaction, assign its timestamp to the current time.
- If receiving a transaction outside a block, assign its timestamp to the current time.
- If receiving a block with a future timestamp, assign all its (not already known) transactions' timestamps to the current time.
- If receiving a block with a past timestamp, before the most recent known transaction (that we care about), assign all its (not already known) transactions' timestamps to the same timestamp as that most-recent-known transaction.
- If receiving a block with a past timestamp, but after the most recent known transaction, assign all its (not already known) transactions' timestamps to the block time.
For backward compatibility, new accounting data is stored after a \0 in the comment string.
This way, old versions and third-party software should load and store them, but all actual use (listtransactions, for example) ignores it.
Replace direct calls to mlock.
Also, change the class to lock the memory areas in the constructor and unlock them again in the destructor. This makes sure that locked pages won't leak.
Memory locks do not stack, that is, pages which have been locked several times by calls to mlock()
will be unlocked by a single call to munlock(). This can result in keying material ending up in swap when
those functions are used naively. In this commit a class "LockedPageManager" is added
that simulates stacking memory locks by keeping a counter per page.
Allows the user to pass null as the second or third parameter
to signrawtransaction, in case you need to (for example) fetch
private keys from the wallet but want to specify the hash type.
This does two things:
1) Now does not output to debug.log if -printtodebugger flag is passed
2) Unit tests set -printtodebugger so only test results are output to stdout
Note that -printtodebugger only actually prints to the debugger on Windows.
If 950 of the last 1,000 blocks are nVersion=2, reject nVersion=1
(or zero, but no bitcoin release has created block.nVersion=0) blocks
-- 75 of last 100 on testnet3.
This rule is being put in place now so that we don't have to go
through another "express support" process to get what we really
want, which is for every single new block to include the block height
in the coinbase.
"Version 2" blocks are blocks that have nVersion=2 and
have the block height as the first item in their coinbase.
Block-height-in-the-coinbase is strictly enforced when
version=2 blocks are a supermajority in the block chain
(750 of the last 1,000 blocks on main net, 51 of 100 for
testnet). This does not affect old clients/miners at all,
which will continue producing nVersion=1 blocks, and
which will continue to be valid.
