CConnman then passes the current best height into CNode at creation time.
This way CConnman/CNode have no dependency on main for height, and the signals
only move in one direction.
This also helps to prevent identity leakage a tiny bit. Before this change, an
attacker could theoretically make 2 connections on different interfaces. They
would connect fully on one, and only establish the initial connection on the
other. Once they receive a new block, they would relay it to your first
connection, and immediately commence the version handshake on the second. Since
the new block height is reflected immediately, they could attempt to learn
whether the two connections were correlated.
This is, of course, incredibly unlikely to work due to the small timings
involved and receipt from other senders. But it doesn't hurt to lock-in
nBestHeight at the time of connection, rather than letting the remote choose
the time.
This behavior seems to have been quite racy and broken.
Move nLocalHostNonce into CNode, and check received nonces against all
non-fully-connected nodes. If there's a match, assume we've connected
to ourself.
waitfornewblock waits until a new block is received, or the timeout expires, then
returns the current block height/hash.
waitforblock waits for a specific blockhash, or until the timeout expires, then
returns the current block height/hash. If the target blockhash is the current
tip, it will return immediately.
waitforblockheight waits until the tip has reached a certain height or higher,
then returns the current height and hash.
waitforblockheight is used to avoid polling in the rpc tests.

We should learn about new peers via address messages.
An inbound peer connecting to us tells us nothing about
its ability to accept incoming connections from us, so
we shouldn't assume that we can connect to it based on
this.
The vast majority of nodes on the network do not accept
incoming connections, adding them will only slow down
the process of making a successful connection in the
future.
Nodes which have configured themselves to not announce would prefer we
not violate their privacy by announcing them in GETADDR responses.
Tests if addresses are online or offline by briefly connecting to them. These short lived connections are referred to as feeler connections. Feeler connections are designed to increase the number of fresh online addresses in tried by selecting and connecting to addresses in new. One feeler connection is attempted on average once every two minutes.

Commands can be executed with bracket syntax, example: `getwalletinfo()`.
Commands can be nested, example: `sendtoaddress(getnewaddress(), 10)`.
Simple queries are possible: `listunspent()[0][txid]`
Object values are accessed with a non-quoted string, example: [txid].
Fully backward compatible.
`generate 101` is identical to `generate(101)`
Result value queries indicated with `[]` require the new brackets syntax.
Comma as argument separator is now also possible: `sendtoaddress,<address>,<amount>`
Space as argument separator works also with the bracket syntax, example: `sendtoaddress(getnewaddress() 10)
No dept limitation, complex commands are possible:
`decoderawtransaction(getrawtransaction(getblock(getbestblockhash())[tx][0]))[vout][0][value]`
Remove the unused variable "blockTmp" in CMerkleTx::SetMerkleBranch. It
was previously used to read the block from disk if not provided as
argument, but is no longer needed.
The `pickDataDirectory()` function was calling `exit(0)` to quit
the application when the user closes the dialog without choosing
a data directory.
This is a bad idea because a background thread is created (to
check free space on the drive of the currently selected datadir).
The thread is not stopped and unwound properly, resulting in a potential
race condition somewhere deep in Qt.
So replace the `exit()` by a boolean return value, and let the
stack unwind normally.

bb66a11 Fix DoS vulnerability in mempool acceptance (Suhas Daftuar)
When processing a headers message that looks like a block announcement,
send peer a getheaders if the headers message won't connect.
Apply DoS points after too many consecutive unconnecting headers messages.
Moves the IsStandard check to happen after the premature-witness check,
so that adding a witness to a transaction can't prevent mempool acceptance.
Note that this doesn't address the broader category of potential mempool DoS
issues that affect transactions after segwit activation.
Also cap the allocation for the leveldb-specific cache for the UTXO set
to 8MiB.
This avoids that the extra cache memory goes to the much less effective
leveldb cache instead of our application-level cache.
This reverts PR #4906, "Coinselection prunes extraneous inputs from
ApproximateBestSubset".
Apparently the previous behavior of slightly over-estimating the set of
inputs was useful in cleaning up UTXOs.

Changes in tinyformat, recently imported from upstream have made the
zero-argument versions of formatting functions unnecessary. Remove them.
This is a slight semantic change: `%` characters in the zero-argument
call are now regarded and need to be escaped. As for as I know, the only
use of this is in `main.cpp`.
Updates `tinyformat.h` to commit
3a33bbf654 upstream.
Makes sure that our local changes are kept:
- #37671b8fd35aad Make tinyformat errors raise an exception instead of assert()ing
- #47359b6d4c5cdc Move strprintf define to tinyformat.h
- #47486e5fd003e0 include stdexcept (for std::exception)
- #80009eaa0afa6e force USE_VARIADIC_TEMPLATES
- Add `std::string format(const std::string &fmt...` added this
at the time, as we want to be able to do `strprintf(_(...), ...)`

An orphan whos parents were rejected is never going to connect, so there
is little utility in keeping it.
Orphans also helpfully tell us what we're missing, so go ahead and treat
it as INVed.
This prevents higher order orphans and other junk from
holding positions in the orphan map. Parents delayed
twenty minutes are more are unlikely to ever arrive.
The freed space will improve the orphan matching success rate for
other transactions.

This was caused by an pyc files hanging around from previous
python2 invocations, when the matching .py missing from that path.
This should not be a problem with python3's tagged caches.
Saves about 10% of application memory usage once the mempool warms up. Since the
mempool is DynamicUsage-regulated, this will translate to a larger mempool in
the same amount of space.
Map value type: eliminate the vin index; no users of the map need to know which
input of the transaction is spending the prevout.
Map key type: replace the COutPoint with a pointer to a COutPoint. A COutPoint
is 36 bytes, but each COutPoint is accessible from the same map entry's value.
A trivial DereferencingComparator functor allows indirect map keys, but the
resulting syntax is misleading: `map.find(&outpoint)`. Implement an indirectmap
that acts as a wrapper to a map that uses a DereferencingComparator, supporting
a syntax that accurately reflect the container's semantics: inserts and
iterators use pointers since they store pointers and need them to remain
constant and dereferenceable, but lookup functions take const references.

Before this, if someone imported a scriptPubKey directly (in hex form) using
importaddress, outputs sending to it would be treated as change, as the
corresponding CTxDestination was not added to the address book.
Fix this by trying to detect scriptPubKeys that are in fact convertible to a
CTxDestination and add them anyway. Add a warning to the RPC help to warn
against importing raw non-standard scripts.

This reduces the rate of not founds by better matching the far
end expectations, it also improves privacy by removing the
ability to use getdata to probe for a node having a txn before
it has been relayed.
Previously the benchmark code used an integer division (%) with
a non-constant in the inner-loop. This is quite slow on many
processors, especially ones like ARM that lack a hardware divide.
Even on fairly recent x86_64 like haswell an integer division can
take something like 100 cycles-- making it comparable to the
runtime of siphash.
This change avoids the division by using bitmasking instead. This
was especially easy since the count was only increased by doubling.
This change also restarts the timing when the execution time was
very low this avoids mintimes of zero in cases where one execution
ends up below the timer resolution. It also reduces the impact of
the overhead on the final result.
The formatting of the prints is changed to not use scientific
notation make it more machine readable (in particular, gnuplot
croaks on the non-fixedpoint, and it doesn't sort correctly).
This also hoists out all the floating point divisions out of the
semi-hot path because it was easy to do so.
It might be prudent to break out the critical test into a macro
just to guarantee that it gets inlined. It might also make sense
to just save out the intermediate counts and times and get the
floating point completely out of the timing loop (because e.g.
on hardware without a fast hardware FPU like some ARM it will
still be slow enough to distort the results). I haven't done
either of these in this commit.

If a node is offline failed outbound connection attempts will crank up
the addrman counter and effectively blow away our state.
This change reduces the problem by only counting attempts made while
the node believes it has outbound connections to at least two
netgroups.
Connect and addnode connections are also not counted, as there is no
reason to unequally penalize them for their more frequent
connections -- though there should be no real effect from this
unless their addnode configureation is later removed.
Wasteful repeated connection attempts while only a few connections are
up are avoided via nLastTry.
This is still somewhat incomplete protection because our outbound
peers could be down but not timed out or might all be on 'local'
networks (although the requirement for multiple netgroups helps).
The ability to GETDATA a transaction which has not (yet) been relayed
is a privacy loss vector.
The use of the mempool for this was added as part of the mempool p2p
message and is only needed to fetch transactions returned by it.
