d11fc16 [Wallet] Call notification signal when a transaction is abandoned (Jonas Schnelli)
df0e222 Add RPC test for abandoned and conflicted transactions. (Alex Morcos)
01e06d1 Add new rpc call: abandontransaction (Alex Morcos)
9e69717 Make wallet descendant searching more efficient (Alex Morcos)
Unconfirmed transactions that are not in your mempool either due to eviction or other means may be unlikely to be mined. abandontransaction gives the wallet a way to no longer consider as spent the coins that are inputs to such a transaction. All dependent transactions in the wallet will also be marked as abandoned.
Shutting down the HTTP server currently breaks off all current requests.
This can create a race condition with RPC `stop` command, where the calling
process never receives confirmation.
This change removes the listening sockets on shutdown so that no new
requests can come in, but no longer breaks off requests in progress.
Meant to fix#6717.
Implement RPCTimerHandler for Qt RPC console, so that `walletpassphrase`
works with GUI and `-server=0`.
Also simplify HTTPEvent-related code by using boost::function directly.
- *Replace usage of boost::asio with [libevent2](http://libevent.org/)*.
boost::asio is not part of C++11, so unlike other boost there is no
forwards-compatibility reason to stick with it. Together with #4738 (convert
json_spirit to UniValue), this rids Bitcoin Core of the worst offenders with
regard to compile-time slowness.
- *Replace spit-and-duct-tape http server with evhttp*. Front-end http handling
is handled by libevent, a work queue (with configurable depth and parallelism)
is used to handle application requests.
- *Wrap HTTP request in C++ class*; this makes the application code mostly
HTTP-server-neutral
- *Refactor RPC to move all http-specific code to a separate file*.
Theoreticaly this can allow building without HTTP server but with another RPC
backend, e.g. Qt's debug console (currently not implemented) or future RPC
mechanisms people may want to use.
- *HTTP dispatch mechanism*; services (e.g., RPC, REST) register which URL
paths they want to handle.
By using a proven, high-performance asynchronous networking library (also used
by Tor) and HTTP server, problems such as #5674, #5655, #344 should be avoided.
What works? bitcoind, bitcoin-cli, bitcoin-qt. Unit tests and RPC/REST tests
pass. The aim for now is everything but SSL support.
Configuration options:
- `-rpcthreads`: repurposed as "number of work handler threads". Still
defaults to 4.
- `-rpcworkqueue`: maximum depth of work queue. When this is reached, new
requests will return a 500 Internal Error.
- `-rpctimeout`: inactivity time, in seconds, after which to disconnect a
client.
- `-debug=http`: low-level http activity logging

Accept strings containing decimal values, in addition to bare values.
Useful from JSON-RPC implementations where it's not possible to have
direct control over the text of numbers (e.g. where numbers are always
doubles), and it's still desired to send an exact value.
This would allow users to post JSON content with numbers encoded like
`{"value": "0.00000001"}` instead of `{"value": 0.00000001}` which some
php/python encoders wrap into 1e-8, or worse.
JSON makes no distinction between numbers and reals, and our code
doesn't need to do so either.
This removes VREAL, as well as its specific post-processing in
`UniValue::write`. Non-monetary amounts do not need to be forcibly
formatted with 8 decimals, so the extra roundtrip was unnecessary
(and potentially loses precision).
This is the format that was always returned to JSON clients.
The difference was not noticed before, because VREAL values
are post-processed by univalue.
By implementing the functionality directly it breaks the dependency
of rpcserver on utilmoneystr. FormatMoney is now only used for debugging
purposes.
To test, port over the formatting tests from util_tests.cpp to
rpc_tests.cpp.
When no `-rpcpassword` is specified, use a special 'cookie' file for
authentication. This file is generated with random content when the
daemon starts, and deleted when it exits. Read access to this file
controls who can access through RPC. By default this file is stored in
the data directory but it be overriden with `-rpccookiefile`.
This is similar to Tor CookieAuthentication: see
https://www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en
Alternative to #6258. Like that pull, this allows running bitcoind
without any manual configuration. However, daemons should ideally never write to
their configuration files, so I prefer this solution.
Add a function `ParseFixedPoint` that parses numbers according
to the JSON number specification and returns a 64-bit integer.
Then this in `AmountFromValue`, rather than `ParseMoney`.
Also add lots of tests (thanks to @jonasschnelli for some of them).
Fixes issue #6297.
I've never liked the chain-specific exception to having to set a
password. It gives issues with #6388 which makes it valid to
set no password in every case (as it enables random cookie authentication).
This pull removes the flag, so that all chains are regarded the same.
It also removes the username==password test, which doesn't provide any
substantial extra security.
72b9452 When processing RPC commands during warmup phase, parse the request object before returning an error so that id value can be used in the response. (Forrest Voight)
request object before returning an error so that id value can
be used in the response.
Prior to this commit, RPC commands sent during Bitcoin's
warmup/startup phase were responded to with a JSON-RPC error
with an id of null, which violated the JSON-RPC 2.0 spec:
id: This member is REQUIRED. It MUST be the same as the value
of the id member in the Request Object. If there was an error
in detecting the id in the Request object (e.g. Parse
error/Invalid Request), it MUST be Null.
My prime gripe with JSON spirit was that monetary values still had to be
converted from and to floating point which can cause deviations (see #3759
and https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/22716/bitcoind-sendfrom-round-amount-error).
As UniValue stores internal values as strings, this is no longer
necessary. This avoids risky double-to-integer and integer-to-double
conversions completely, and results in more elegant code to boot.
- implement find_value() function for UniValue
- replace all Array/Value/Object types with UniValues, remove JSON Spirit to UniValue wrapper
- remove JSON Spirit sources

* allows querying the utxos over REST
* same binary input and outputs as mentioned in Bip64
* input format = output format
* various rpc/rest regtests
Adds a regression test for the wallet's ResendWalletTransactions function, which uses a new, hidden RPC command "resendwallettransactions."
I refactored main's Broadcast signal so it is passed the best-block time, which let me remove a global variable shared between main.cpp and the wallet (nTimeBestReceived).
I also manually tested the "rebroadcast unconfirmed every half hour or so" functionality by:
1. Running bitcoind -connect=0.0.0.0:8333
2. Creating a couple of send-to-self transactions
3. Connect to a peer using -addnode
4. Waited a while, monitoring debug.log, until I see:
```2015-03-23 18:48:10 ResendWalletTransactions: rebroadcast 2 unconfirmed transactions```
One last change: don't bother putting ResendWalletTransactions messages in debug.log unless unconfirmed transactions were actually rebroadcast.
Normally bitcoin core does not display any network originated strings without
sanitizing or hex encoding. This wasn't done for strcommand in many places.
This could be used to play havoc with a terminal displaying the logs,
especially with printtoconsole in use.
Thanks to Evil-Knievel for reporting this issue.
