893628be01 Drop minor GetSerializeSize template (Ben Woosley)
da74db0940 Drop unused GetType() from CSizeComputer (Ben Woosley)
Pull request description:
Based on conversation in #13462, it seems the serialization `GetType` has very narrow use/effect. In every case except for `CAddress`, which specifically relates to a network peer's address, not a wallet address etc., the serialized representation of an object is irrespective of its destination / type.
This removes the unused `GetType` method from `CSizeComputer` as a step to further narrowing that use.

Call sync.h primitives "locks" and "mutexes" instead of "blocks" and "waitable
critical sections" to match current coding conventions and c++11 standard
names.
This PR does not rename the "CCriticalSection" class (though this could be done
as a followup) because it is used everywhere and would swamp the other changes
in this PR. Plain mutexes should mostly be preferred instead of recursive
mutexes in new code anyway.

When verifying blocks at startup, the progress is printed in 10%
increments to logs. When -checklevel=4, however, the second half
of the verification (connecting the blocks again) does not log the
progress anymore. (It is still computed and shown in the UI, but
not printed to logs.)
This change makes the behaviour consistent, by adding the missing
progress logging also for level-4 checks.

The only affect this should have is fixing the return code in
submitblock in cases where a block fails ContextualCheckBlock and
not setting nLastBlockTime on peers that provide blocks which fail
ContextualCheckBlock (which is only used in eviction and cosmetic).

ecc3c4a Do not unlock cs_main in ABC unless we've actually made progress. (Matt Corallo)
Pull request description:
Originally this PR was just to add tests around concurrency in block validation - those tests seem to have uncovered another bug in ActivateBestChain - this now fixes that bug and adds tests.
ActivateBestChain (invoked after a new block is validated) proceeds in steps - acquiring and releasing cs_main while incrementally disconnecting and connecting blocks to sync to the most work chain known (FindMostWorkChain()). Every time cs_main is released the result of FindMostWorkChain() can change - but currently that value is cached across acquisitions of cs_main and only refreshed when an invalid chain is explored. It needs to be refreshed every time cs_main is reacquired. The test added in 6094ce7304 will occasionally fail without the commit fixing this issue 26bfdbaddb
Original description below
--
After a bug discovered where UpdatedBlockTip() notifications could be triggered out of order (#12978), these unit tests check certain invariants about these signals.
The scheduler test asserts that a SingleThreadedSchedulerClient processes callbacks fully and sequentially.
The block validation test generates a random chain and calls ProcessNewBlock from multiple threads at random and in parallel. ValidationInterface callbacks verify that the ordering of BlockConnected BlockDisconnected and UpdatedBlockTip events occur as expected.

In `ProcessGetBlockData`, send the block data directly from disk if
type MSG_WITNESS_BLOCK is requested. This is a valid shortcut as the
on-disk format matches the network format.

If multiple threads are invoking ActivateBestChain, it was possible to have
them working towards different tips, and we could arrive at a less work tip
than we should. Fix this by introducing a ChainState lock which must
be held for the entire duration of ActivateBestChain to enforce
exclusion in ABC.
Technically, some internal datastructures may be in an inconsistent
state if we do this, though there are no known bugs there. Still,
for future safety, its much better to only unlock cs_main if we've
made progress (not just tried a reorg which may make progress).

Introduced in 4e0eed88ac
When an invalid block is found during a reorg, we know the last of the blocks in
the was-to-be-connected chain is invalid, but not necessarily the first. As
vpIndexToConnect is ordered in decreasing height, the end of the reorg is the
front of the vector, and not the back.
This only affected the warning system.
A transaction with 1 segwit input and 1 P2WPHK output has non-witness size of 82 bytes. Anything smaller than this have unnecessary malloc overhead and are not relayed/mined.
Previously, ChainStateFlushed would fire either if a full flush
completed (which can happen due to memory limits, forced flush, or
on its own DATABASE_WRITE_INTERVAL timer) *or* on a
ChainStateFlushed-specific DATABASE_WRITE_INTERVAL timer. This is
both less clear for clients (as there are no guarantees about a
flush having actually happened prior to the call), and reults in
extra flushes not clearly intended by the code. We drop the second
case, providing a strong guarantee without removing the periodit
timer-based flushing.
This much more accurately captures the meaning of the callback.

Pull request description:
This replaces potential silent failures and partial logging with full logging. Seems providing at least minimal visibility to the failure is a good practice. E.g. `FlushStateToDisk` can return a rare but meaningful out of disk space error that would be better to note than leave out.
Note many of these are related to `ActivateBestChain` or `FlushStateToDisk`. Only a few cases of ignored state remain, e.g. LoadExternalBlockFile and RelayWalletTransaction, where I expect logging would likely be spammy.

Pull request description:
Add logging and error handling inside, and outside of FileCommit.
Functions such as fsync, fdatasync will return error in case of hardware I/O errors, and ignoring this means it can silently continue through data corruption.
(c.f. https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/752063/12b232ab5039efbe/)
EINVAL is handled specially to avoid crashing out on (network, fuse) filesystems that don't handle `f[data]sync`.
I checked that the syncing inside leveldb is already generating an I/O error as appropriate.

ce650182f4 Use P2SH consensus rules for all blocks (Suhas Daftuar)
Pull request description:
As discussed at the IRC meeting back in October (https://botbot.me/freenode/bitcoin-core-dev/2017-10-12/?msg=92231929&page=2), I had looked into the feasibility of enforcing P2SH and SCRIPT_VERIFY_WITNESS back to the genesis block.
The P2SH change is pretty straightforward -- there was only one historical block on mainnet that violated the rule, so I carved out an exception to it, similar to the way we have exceptions for the BIP30 violators.
The segwit change is not entirely as clear. The code changes themselves are relatively straightforward: we can just always turn on SCRIPT_VERIFY_WITNESS whenever P2SH is active. However conceptually, this amounts to splitting up BIP141 into two parts, the part that implements new script rules, and the part that handles witness commitments in blocks.
Arguably though the script rules are really defined in BIP 143 anyway, and so this really amounts to backdating BIP 143 -- script rules for v0 segwit outputs -- back to genesis. So maybe conceptually this isn't so bad...
I don't feel strongly about this change in either direction; I started working on it because I was searching for a way to simplify the way we understand and implement the consensus rules around segwit, but I'm not yet sure whether I think this achieves anything toward that goal.

Seems providing at least minimal visibility to the failure is a good practice.
The only remaining ignored state is in LoadExternalBlockFile, where logging
would likely be spammy.

This commit moves P2SH activation back to the genesis block, with
a hardcoded exception for the one historical block in the chain that
violated this rule.

Pull request description:
This is an alternative to #11694.
It reintroduces a uint256 variable with the best block hash, protected by csBestBlock, and only updated while holding it.
Also rename the involved variable to modern guidelines, as there are very few uses.

Shut down if a corrupted block is found in ConnectBlock(). This prevents an infinite loop trying to connect such a block, and alerts the node operator that there may be potential hardware failure.

b55555d rpc: Add testmempoolaccept (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
To check if a single raw transaction makes it into the current transaction pool, one had to call `sendrawtransaction`. However, on success, this adds the transaction to the mempool with no easy way to undo.
The call `testmempoolaccept` is introduced to provide a way to solely check the result without changing the mempool state.

a7c45bc Add native support for serializing char arrays without FLATDATA (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Support is added to serialize arrays of type `char` or `unsigned char` directly, without any wrappers. All invocations of the `FLATDATA` wrappers that are obsoleted by this are removed.
This includes a patch by @ryanofsky to make `char` casting type safe.
The serialization of `CSubNet` is changed to serialize a `bool` directly rather than though `FLATDATA`. This makes the serialization independent of the size of the bool type (and will use 1 byte everywhere).
This is a small change taken from #10785.

f38e4fd QA: Add -blocksdir test (Jonas Schnelli)
386a6b6 Allow to optional specify the directory for the blocks storage (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:
Since the actual block files taking up more and more space, it may be desirable to have them stored in a different location then the data directory (use case: SSD for chainstate, etc., HD for blocks).
This PR adds a `-blocksdir` option that allows one to keep the blockfiles and the blockindex external from the data directory (instead of creating symlinks).
I fist had an option to keep the blockindex within the datadir, but seems to make no sense since accessing the index will (always) lead to access (r/w) the block files.

1f45e21 scripted-diff: Convert 11 enums into scoped enums (C++11) (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Rationale (from Bjarne Stroustrup's ["C++11 FAQ"](http://www.stroustrup.com/C++11FAQ.html#enum)):
>
> The enum classes ("new enums", "strong enums") address three problems with traditional C++ enumerations:
>
> * conventional enums implicitly convert to int, causing errors when someone does not want an enumeration to act as an integer.
> * conventional enums export their enumerators to the surrounding scope, causing name clashes.
> * the underlying type of an enum cannot be specified, causing confusion, compatibility problems, and makes forward declaration impossible.
>
> The new enums are "enum class" because they combine aspects of traditional enumerations (names values) with aspects of classes (scoped members and absence of conversions).

f98b54352 Only call NotifyBlockTip when the active chain changes (James O'Beirne)
152b7fb25 [tests] Add a (failing) test for waitforblockheight (James O'Beirne)
Pull request description:
This is a subset of the more controversial https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/12407, but this also adds a test demonstrating the bug.
In InvalidateBlock, we're calling NotifyBlockTip with the now-invalid block's prev regardless of what chain the ancestor block is on. This could create numerous issues, but it at least screws up `waitforblockheight` (or anything else relying on `rpc/blockchain.cpp:latestblock`) when InvalidateBlock is called on a block not in chainActive, which can happen via RPC.
Only call NotifyBlockTip when the block being marked invalid is on the active chain.
