Lowering the minimum relay fee is only useful when many nodes in the
p2p network also lower the fee, so to make it easier to understand
progress on that front, this includes the value of the minfeefilter in
getpeerinfo, so you at least have visibility to what fees your neighbours
are currently accepting.
e254ff5d53 Introduce a maximum size for locators. (Gregory Maxwell)
Pull request description:
The largest sensible size for a locator is log in the number of blocks.
But, as noted by Coinr8d on BCT a maximum size message could encode a
hundred thousand locators. If height were used to limit the messages
that could open new attacks where peers on long low diff forks would
get disconnected and end up stuck.
Ideally, nodes first first learn to limit the size of locators they
send before limiting what would be processed, but common implementations
back off with an exponent of 2 and have an implicit limit of 2^32
blocks, so they already cannot produce locators over some size.
Locators are cheap to process so allowing a few more is harmless,
so this sets the maximum to 64-- which is enough for blockchains
with 2^64 blocks before the get overhead starts increasing.

This sets the limit to an absurdly high amount of 101 in order to
maximize compatibility with existing software.

d45b344ffd Bucket for inbound when scheduling invs to hide tx time (Gleb)
Pull request description:
It has been brought up to my attention that current random delays mechanism (originally intended to obfuscate transaction metadata) allows to easily estimate the time a transaction was received by a node.
It may be done by connecting multiple observer nodes to the same node. Each of those nodes will generate its own schedule of delays. Combined metadata regarding those events from different sources allows an observer to estimate transaction time.
After this patch a spy won't gain additional information by just creating multiple connections to a target.

Adds HasAllRelevantServices and GetRelevantServices, which check
for NETWORK|WITNESS.
This changes the following:
* Removes nRelevantServices from CConnman, disconnecting it a bit
more from protocol-level logic.
* Replaces our sometimes-connect-to-!WITNESS-nodes logic with
simply always requiring WITNESS|NETWORK for outbound non-feeler
connections (feelers still only require NETWORK).
* This has the added benefit of removing nServicesExpected from
CNode - instead letting net_processing's VERSION message
handling simply check HasAllRelevantServices.
* This implies we believe WITNESS nodes to continue to be a
significant majority of nodes on the network, but also because
we cannot sync properly from !WITNESS nodes, it is strange to
continue using our valuable outbound slots on them.
* In order to prevent this change from preventing connection to
-connect= nodes which have !WITNESS, -connect nodes are now
given the "addnode" flag. This also allows outbound connections
to !NODE_NETWORK nodes for -connect nodes (which was already true
of addnodes).
* Has the (somewhat unintended) consequence of changing one of the
eviction metrics from the same
sometimes-connect-to-!WITNESS-nodes metric to requiring
HasRelevantServices.
This should make NODE_NETWORK_LIMITED much simpler to implement.
Use C++11's better capability of expressing an interface of a non-copyable class by publicly deleting its copy ctor and assignment operator instead of just declaring them private.
There are a few too many edge-cases here to make this a scripted diff.
The following commits will move a few functions into PeerLogicValidation, where
the local connman instance can be used. This change prepares for that usage.

The read of the uninitialized variable nLocalServices is triggered by g_connman->GetLocalServices()
in getnetworkinfo(const JSONRPCRequest& request) (net.cpp:462):
```c++
UniValue getnetworkinfo(const JSONRPCRequest& request)
{
...
if(g_connman)
obj.push_back(Pair("localservices", strprintf("%016x", g_connman->GetLocalServices())));
...
}
```
The reason for the uninitialized nLocalServices is that CConnman::Start(...) is not called
by the tests, and hence the initialization normally performed by CConnman::Start(...) is
not done.
This commit adds a method Init(const Options& connOptions) which is called by both the
constructor and CConnman::Start(...). This method initializes nLocalServices and the other
relevant values from the supplied Options object.
Identified with `cppcheck --enable=unusedFunction .`.

Part of a series of changes to clean up the instantiation of connman
by decoupling the command line arguments.
We also now abort with an error when explicit binds are set with
-listen=0.
This adds the listening address on which incoming connections were received to the
CNode and CNodeStats structures.
The address is reported in `getpeerinfo`.
This can be useful for distinguishing connections received on different listening ports
(e.g. when using a different listening port for Tor hidden service connections)
or different networks.
