Merge #13480: Avoid copies in range-for loops and add a warning to detect them
d92204c900 build: add warning to detect hidden copies in range-for loops (Cory Fields)
466e16e0e8 cleanup: avoid hidden copies in range-for loops (Cory Fields)

Pull request description:

  Following-up on #13241, which was itself a follow-up of #12169.

  See title. Fixing these would otherwise be a continuous process, adding the warning should keep them from cropping up.

  Note that the warning seems to be Clang-only for now.

Merge #13439: rpc: Avoid "duplicate" return value for invalid submitblock
f74894480 Only set fNewBlock to true in AcceptBlock when we write to disk (Matt Corallo)
fa6e49731 rpc: Avoid "duplicate" return value for invalid submitblock (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  This is #13395 with one more commit tacked on. MarcoFalke got tired of dealing with the stupidity of fixing a return code with too many rounds of review (not that I blame him). Honestly we should probably have no return whatsoever, but for now, this fixes it (as well as nLastBlockTime for eviction purposes).

  Original description:

  When `submitblock` of an invalid block, the return value should not be `"duplicate"`.

  This is only seen when the header was previously found (denoted by the incorrectly named boolean `fBlockPresent`). Fix this bug by removing `fBlockPresent`.

Pull request description:

  From the branches-I've-had-lying-around-and-forgot-to-PR department...

  This is a comment-only PR, but the comments point out an API quirk that isn't exactly trivial. None of our use-cases right now hit this, but if we were to call SyncWithValidationInterfaceQueue (eg to limit queue depth) in ATMP, I'm pretty sure we'd hit a deadlock there.

Pull request description:

  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.

  This is expected to increase performance because a deserialization and subsequent serialization roundtrip is avoided.

Merge #13023: Fix some concurrency issues in ActivateBestChain()
dd435ad Add unit tests for signals generated by ProcessNewBlock() (Jesse Cohen)
a3ae8e6 Fix concurrency-related bugs in ActivateBestChain (Jesse Cohen)
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.

Jesse Cohen a3ae8e6873 Fix concurrency-related bugs in ActivateBestChain
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.

Matt Corallo ecc3c4a019 Do not unlock cs_main in ABC unless we've actually made progress.
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).

Pieter Wuille a2f678d355 Bugfix: the end of a reorged chain is invalid when connect fails
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.

Matt Corallo 9cb6cdc59f Simplify semantics of ChainStateFlushed callback
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.

e4d0b44 Consistently log CValidationState on failure (Ben Woosley)

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:

  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.

scripted-diff: Rename CChainState::g_failed_blocks to m_failed_blocks
To reflect its actual status as a member rather than a global value.

g_failed_blocks was previously global: 2862aca40f

Pull request description:

  The comment erroneously implies that we're searching `chainActive` for the
  first block common to `locator`, but we're using the parameter `chain`.

Suhas Daftuar ce650182f4 Use P2SH consensus rules for all blocks
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.

Merge #12743: Fix csBestBlock/cvBlockChange waiting in rpc/mining
4a6c0e3dcf Modernize best block mutex/cv/hash variable naming (Pieter Wuille)
45dd135039 Fix csBestBlock/cvBlockChange waiting in rpc/mining (Pieter Wuille)

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.

practicalswift 2311c7cc86 Call FlushStateToDisk(...) regardless of fCheckForPruning
FlushStateToDisk(...) won't do anything besides check if we need to prune if
FLUSH_STATE_NONE is given. We avoid reading the variable fCheckForPruning
which is guarded by the mutex cs_LastBlockFile.

Merge #12561: Check for block corruption in ConnectBlock()
0e7c52d Shut down if trying to connect a corrupted block (Suhas Daftuar)

Pull request description:

  (Updated OP after reworking the approach)

  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.
