Pull request description:

  @sdaftuar pointed out that the version in #11487 was somewhat DoS-able as someone could feed you a valid chain that forked off the the last checkpoint block and force you to do lots of work just walking backwards across blocks for each new block they gave you. We came up with a few proposals but settled on the one implemented here as likely the simplest without obvious DoS issues. It uses our existing on-load mapBlockIndex walk to make sure everything that descends from an invalid block is marked as such, and then simply caches blocks which we attempted to connect but which were found to be invalid. To avoid DoS issues during IBD, this will need to depend on #11458.

  Includes tests from #11487.

Merge #11511: [Init] Remove redundant exit(EXIT_FAILURE) instances and replace with return false
b296bf1 Init: Remove redundant exit(EXIT_FAILURE) instances and replace with return false (donaloconnor)

Pull request description:

  While reviewing the bitcoin code I noticed that there are a few exit(EXIT_FAILURE) at various places in the AppInit function.

  This function returns to main() which will return/exit with EXIT_FAILURE so returning false instead of an explicit exit(EXIT_FAILURE) seems to be cleaner.

  This PR attempts to make things a bit more consistent.

  There is a subtle difference between exit() and return from main in that the exit() will not clean up any local vars but I don't think this makes a difference in this case. Using exit() might even lead to bugs in the future where the dtor of local objects are expected to be called.

Merge #11442: [Docs] Update OpenBSD Build Instructions for OpenBSD 6.2
9d30f54 [Docs] Update OpenBSD Build Instructions for OpenBSD 6.2 (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  This updates the OpenBSD build docs to reflect building [master](8ddf60db7a) on a OpenBSD 6.2 VM (using VirtualBox 5.1.28 r117968 on macOS 10.12.6).

  Versions of installed packages were:
  ```
  gmake 4.2.1
  g++ 4.9.4
  git 2.12.2
  libevent 2.0.22
  libtool 2.4.2
  autoconf 2.69p2
  automake 1.15p0
  python 3.6.0
  boost 1.58.0p3
  llvm 4.0.0p2
  ```

  The boost package installed via pkg_add now seems to work correctly. So we shouldn't require manual building + patching.
  I also wasn't required to make adjustments to any resource limits.

  Building with g++ and Clang was successful, using:
  ```
  ./configure --disable-wallet --with-gui=no CC=egcc CXX=eg++ CPP=ecpp
  ```
  and
  ```
  ./configure --disable-wallet --with-gui=no CC=clang CXX=clang++
  ```

  Running ``` make check ``` worked for ```test/test_bitcoin``` but ```test/util/bitcoin-util-test.py``` failed with:
  ```
  Running test/util/bitcoin-util-test.py...
  ../test/util/bitcoin-util-test.py
  env: python3: No such file or directory
  ```
  So that seems like a configuration issue, Python 3.6 is installed.

  Still todo:
  - [ ] Check if a manual installation of Berkeley DB is required
  - [x] Fix running ```test/util/bitcoin-util-test.py```
  - [x] Have someone else verify building

015a5258ad Reject headers building on invalid chains by tracking invalidity
This tracks the set of all known invalid-themselves blocks (ie
blocks which we attempted to connect but which were found to be
invalid). This is used to cheaply check if new headers build on an
invalid chain.

While we're at it we also resolve an edge-case in invalidateblock
on pruned nodes which results in them needing a reindex if they
fail to reorg.

Merge #11541: Build: Fix Automake warnings when running autogen.sh
cc5c39d [Build] Add AM_OBJCXXFLAGS and QT_PIE_FLAGS to OBJCXXFLAGS to future-proof darwin targets (fanquake)
f8c6697 Fix automake warnings when running autogen.sh (Evan Klitzke)

Pull request description:

  Adjusted @eklitzke's commit to completely remove GZIP_ENV.
  Added a commit to address OBJCXXFLAGS.
  Rebased on master.
  Relevant info from @theuni & #11013 below.

  --------
  GZIP_ENV was indeed added for determinism, but gitian exports this as needed, so it's not really necessary. I'd rather just remove it.

  The mm.o rule was added to support XCode 4.2's ancient version of automake. That's irrelevant now, so it makes sense to remove that too.

  All darwin targets are PIE by default, so we don't technically need the flags, but I'd be more comfortable if we hooked up the OBJCXXFLAGS in case future ones are added.

  --------

  The second commit addresses the last point, but could probably use a better commit message.
  These warnings are removed from autogen output:
  ```

Merge #11568: Disconnect outbound peers on invalid chains
37886d5e2 Disconnect outbound peers relaying invalid headers (Suhas Daftuar)
4637f1852 moveonly: factor out headers processing into separate function (Suhas Daftuar)

Pull request description:

  Alternate to #11446.

  Disconnect outbound (non-manual) peers that serve us block headers that are already known to be invalid, but exempt compact block announcements from such disconnects.

  We restrict disconnection to outbound peers that are using up an outbound connection slot, because we rely on those peers to give us connectivity to the honest network (our inbound peers are not chosen by us and hence could all be from an attacker/sybil).  Maintaining connectivity to peers that serve us invalid headers is sometimes desirable, eg after a soft-fork, to protect unupgraded software from being partitioned off the honest network, so we prefer to only disconnect when necessary.

  Compact block announcements are exempted from this logic to comply with BIP 152, which explicitly permits nodes to relay compact blocks before fully validating them.

Merge #11490: Disconnect from outbound peers with bad headers chains
e065249 Add unit test for outbound peer eviction (Suhas Daftuar)
5a6d00c Permit disconnection of outbound peers on bad/slow chains (Suhas Daftuar)
c60fd71 Disconnecting from bad outbound peers in IBD (Suhas Daftuar)

Pull request description:

  The first commit will disconnect an outbound peer that serves us a headers chain with insufficient work while we're in IBD.

  The second commit introduces a way to disconnect outbound peers whose chains fall out of sync with ours:

  For a given outbound peer, we check whether their best known block (which is known from the blocks they announce to us) has at least as much work as our tip.  If it doesn't, we set a 20 minute timeout, and if we still haven't heard about a block with as much work as our tip had when we set the timeout, then we send a single getheaders message, and wait 2 more minutes.  If after two minutes their best known block has insufficient work, we disconnect that peer.

  We protect 4 of our outbound peers (who provide some "good" headers chains, ie a chain with at least as much work as our tip at some point) from being subject to this logic, to prevent excessive network topology changes as a result of this algorithm, while still ensuring that we have a reasonable number of nodes not known to be on bogus chains.

  We also don't require our peers to be on the same chain as us, to prevent accidental partitioning of the network in the event of a chain split.  Note that if our peers are ever on a more work chain than our tip, then we will download and validate it, and then either reorg to it, or learn of a consensus incompatibility with that peer and disconnect.  This PR is designed to protect against peers that are on a less work chain which we may never try to download and validate.

5a6d00c6de Permit disconnection of outbound peers on bad/slow chains
Currently we have no rotation of outbound peers.  If an outbound peer
stops serving us blocks, or is on a consensus-incompatible chain with
less work than our tip (but otherwise valid headers), then we will never
disconnect that peer, even though that peer is using one of our 8
outbound connection slots.  Because we rely on our outbound peers to
find an honest node in order to reach consensus, allowing an
incompatible peer to occupy one of those slots is undesirable,
particularly if it is possible for all such slots to be occupied by such
peers.

Protect against this by always checking to see if a peer's best known
block has less work than our tip, and if so, set a 20 minute timeout --
if the peer is still not known to have caught up to a chain with as much
work as ours after 20 minutes, then send a single getheaders message,
wait 2 more minutes, and if a better header hasn't been received by then,
disconnect that peer.

Note:

- we do not require that our peer sync to the same tip as ours, just an
equal or greater work tip.  (Doing otherwise would risk partitioning the
network in the event of a chain split, and is also unnecessary.)

- we pick 4 of our outbound peers and do not subject them to this logic,
to be more conservative. We don't wish to permit temporary network
issues (or an attacker) to excessively disrupt network topology.

c96b2e4f0 qa: Fix replace-by-fee race condition failures (Suhas Daftuar)

Pull request description:

  I think #11407 broke replace-by-fee by introducing a race condition.  I was observing frequent failures of replace-by-fee locally, always with a mempool sync failure (the sync call was added in #11407).

  It appeared to me like there were two causes: sometimes the node would be in IBD and not request the transaction that was relayed; other times the blocks generated in make_utxo wouldn't have relayed quickly enough for the spend of the transaction to be accepted.  I believe I've fixed both potential errors.

  ping @instagibbs

  Edit: I found a race condition in the sendheaders.py test, where if the verack from the python node wasn't processed before the first block in the test was generated, then no block announcement would go out to that peer, breaking the test.  Fixed by adding a sync_with_ping after waiting for verack.

  I also moved `RPCConsole::FormatBytes` to `guiutil::formatBytes` so I could use it in the peerlist

Pull request description:

  A peer could try to waste our resources by sending us unrequested blocks with
  low work (eg to fill up our disk).  Since e265200 we no longer request blocks until we
  know we're on a chain with more than nMinimumChainWork (our anti-DoS
  threshold), but we would still process unrequested blocks that had more work
  than our tip (which generally has low-work during IBD), even though we may not
  yet have found a headers chain with sufficient work.

  Fix this and add a test.

e2652002b6 we no longer request blocks until we

Merge #11529: Avoid slow transaction search with txindex enabled
7a5f930 Avoid slow transaction search with txindex enabled (João Barbosa)

Pull request description:

  This is an alternative to #11507 where a slow search is not attempted (in any case) if `txindex` is enabled.

Merge #11476: Avoid opening copied wallet databases simultaneously
478a89c Avoid opening copied wallet databases simultaneously (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  Make sure wallet databases have unique fileids. If they don't, throw an error. BDB caches do not work properly when more than one open database has the same fileid, because values written to one database may show up in reads to other databases.

  Bitcoin will never create different databases with the same fileid, but users can create them by manually copying database files.

  BDB caching bug was reported by @dooglus in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/11429
