Merge #14882: [doc] developer-notes.md: point out that UniValue deviates from upstream
a67d71311d [doc] developer-notes.md: point out that UniValue deviates from upstream (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  While debugging an issue I was somewhat surprised to [learn](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/14164#issuecomment-419752678) that we've moved `src/univalue` from https://github.com/jgarzik/univalue to https://github.com/bitcoin-core/univalue, that these repos are both maintained and they're different.

  The first mention of using the bitcoin-core repo is from late 2015 in #7157. I didn't check when the last common ancestor commit is.

  I couldn't find documentation as to why (these things just happen in open source of course), but at minimum we should make this more clear.

  There's also the following line in `config.ac` that I'm not sure what to do with:
  ```
  AC_INIT([univalue], [1.0.3],
          [http://github.com/jgarzik/univalue/])
  ```

Pull request description:

  This PR adds functionality to convert a script to a descriptor, given a `SigningProvider` with the relevant information about public keys and redeemscripts/witnessscripts.

  The feature is exposed in `listunspent`, `getaddressinfo`, and `scantxoutset` whenever these calls are applied to solvable outputs/addresses.

  This is not very useful on its own, though when we add RPCs to import descriptors, or sign PSBTs using descriptors, these strings become a compact and standalone way of conveying everything necessary to sign an output (excluding private keys).

  Unit tests and rudimentary RPC tests are included (more relevant tests can be added once RPCs support descriptors).

  Fixes #14503.

Merge #14612: Include full version number in released file names
75a4bf699f Update release-process.md to include RC version bumping (Andrew Chow)
04b0bc7425 build: include rc number in version number (Andrew Chow)
895e6bbb22 build: if VERSION_BUILD is non-zero, include it in the package version (Andrew Chow)

Pull request description:

  As noted on IRC, the filenames of the gitian build results do not contain the 4th digit of the version number if it has one, e.g. 0.17.0.1 produces files with the number 0.17.0. Furthermore, when RC's are built, the resulting filenames are of the release version and do not include `rc` in them. This occurs because `configure.ac` is written to create version numbers of the form `major.minor.rev` instead of `major.minor.rev.build` and without any rc version as it does not handle rc numbers.

  This PR changes `configure.ac` to include the build number if it is greater than 0. It will also include the rc number if it is greater than 0. So the filenames of the gitian builds will now contain the full version number.

  This behavior can be tested by setting `_CLIENT_VERSION_BUILD` and `_CLIENT_VERSION_RC` to non-zero values and then doing `make dist`. A tar file should be created with the correct versioning.

ba8f0c6c8d Release notes: integrate detached release notes (David A. Harding)
6062f0e613 Release notes: update notes through to 11e1ac3ae0 (David A. Harding)

Pull request description:

  This documents changes listed by `git log v0.17.0...11e1ac3 --merges` and integrates the existing detached release notes into the main file.

  My goal is to update the release notes each month in order to reduce the amount of writing and review that needs to be done all at once near the start of the RC cycle.

  Note: I've chosen to use fully-qualified URLs for linking to documentation, rather than shorter relative URLs that would otherwise be preferred, as the release notes are commonly copied into emails, reddit threads, and blog posts where relative URLs would be incomplete or would point to the wrong page.

a6b5ec18f rpc: creates possibility to preserve labels on importprivkey (marcoagner)

Pull request description:

  Closes #13087.

  As discussed in the issue, this is a feature request instead of a bug report since the behaviour was as intended (i.e. label with default: `''`). With this, the old behaviour is kept while the possibility to achieve the preservation of labels, as expected in the open issue, is added.

Pull request description:

  Rationale:

  For new developers, they might be confused if they see that function arguments are sometimes `camelCase`'d in the codebase. This makes it clear that they _should_ be `snake_case`'d (maybe because no one's gotten to fixing them yet).

5918204304 Removed explicit mention of storage requirement (squashed)
Similarly discussed and fixed in the following bitcoin.org issue: https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/pull/2716

Removed mention of storage requirement

Agreeing with @laanwj that this mention of the storage requirement could be removed, I did so and changed the wording accordingly.
Would be nice to be able to add a link to a canonical source that is always updated, for those who want a number.

Merge #14390: docs: release process: RPC documentation
3b706212ad doc: RPC documentation (Karel Bílek)

Pull request description:

  The auto-generated RPC docs seem to work so far ( https://bitcoincore.org/en/doc/ + 0.17.0 https://github.com/bitcoin-core/bitcoincore.org/pull/618 ). There are some problems (the design of the list on the right is not ideal, and apparently the huge list of pages slows down jekyll), but that can be fixed later; people are already linking to the docs now and looking for them there

  So I am adding the RPC docs to the release process.

  The script is here and it is written in golang, since I am most confident in the language; if necessary, I can try to rewrite to python, which is more common in bitcoin tooling

  A subset of #14211 ("Use MakeUnique to construct objects owned by unique_ptrs") as suggested by @MarcoFalke in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/14211#issuecomment-423324019.

  Use `MakeUnique` to construct objects owned by `unique_ptr`s.

  Rationale:
  * `MakeUnique` ensures exception safety in complex expressions.
  * `MakeUnique` gives a more concise statement of the construction.

Pull request description:

  Implements issue https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/9463

  New getnodeaddresses call gives access via RPC to the peers known by the node. It may be useful for bitcoin wallets to broadcast their transactions over tor for improved privacy without using the centralized DNS seeds. getnodeaddresses is very similar to the getaddr p2p method.

  Please advise me on the best approach for writing an automated test. By my reading the getaddr p2p method also isn't really tested.

New getnodeaddresses call gives access via RPC to the peers known by
the node. It may be useful for bitcoin wallets to broadcast their
transactions over tor for improved privacy without using the
centralized DNS seeds. getnodeaddresses is very similar to the getaddr
p2p method.

Tests the new rpc call by feeding IP address to a test node via the p2p
protocol, then obtaining someone of those addresses with
getnodeaddresses and checking that they are a subset.

f1bd03eb01 [depends, zmq, doc] upgrade zeromq to 4.2.5 and avoid deprecated zeromq api functions (mruddy)

Pull request description:

  Upgrade the ZeroMQ dependency from version 4.2.3 to the latest stable version 4.2.5.

  This PR Follows the lead of https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11986.

  I upgraded both patch files to correspond to the version `4.2.5` libzmq files.
  I assume doing so is still necessary and correct.

  Without updating the patch line numbers, things appear to work, but you get extra log messages while building `depends` because things don't exactly match, e.g.:
  ```
  /bitcoin/depends> make zeromq
  Extracting zeromq...
  /bitcoin/depends/sources/zeromq-4.2.5.tar.gz: OK
  Preprocessing zeromq...
  patching file src/windows.hpp
  Hunk #1 succeeded at 58 (offset 3 lines).
  patching file src/thread.cpp
  Hunk #1 succeeded at 307 with fuzz 2 (offset 87 lines).
  Hunk #2 succeeded at 323 with fuzz 2 (offset 90 lines).
  ```
  Updating the patches seemed cleaner, so I did it. Note that libzmq had some whitespace changes, so that's why the updated patches do too.

  More info: https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/releases/tag/v4.2.5

fa14b54a87 p2p: Disable BIP 61 by default (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  The live p2p network should not be used for debugging or as development aid when implementing the p2p protocol. Instead, applications should be tested locally (e.g. by inspecting the debug log of a validating node on the local network)

  Using the p2p network for this purpose seems wasteful and even dangerous, as peers can not be trusted to send the correct reject messages or a reject message at all.

Merge #13941: Add PSBT documentation
19efc01aec Add PSBT documentation (Pieter Wuille)

Pull request description:

  This is just some initial text to get going; other contributions welcome.

  I'd like to include other workflows, such as hardware wallets and (manual) coinjoins. However, the former will in practice require PSBT interfaces for existing hardware devices, and the second can really use some extra RPCs first.

Pull request description:

  - Update broken links
  - Improve command to generate list of authors for a release

  ---

  I also note that it asks to ping **wumpus** on IRC, to assist in generating a list of merged pulls and sort them into categories based on labels. I tried to turn this into a simple one-liner as well (something like ``git log --merges --format="- \`%h\` %s (%an)" v0.16.0..v0.16.1``), but it didn't seem to capture everything I needed.

  Would it be worthwhile **wumpus** open-sourcing his code into `contrib/devtools` so there is no single point of failure (even if it can manually be worked around).

Pull request description:

  Implements #8263.

  Qt4.x has been EOL since 2015, and at least Gentoo has, or is going to drop support for it. I wouldn't be surprised if other Linux distributions follow.

  This removes Qt4 detection from the build system, as well as removes all Qt4 fallbacks from the code. Turns out there's more than I expected: this is going to make maintenance of the GUI code, as well as adding new features significantly easier.

  (I know there's still some references left to qt4 in RPM and Debian build script, but I don't have the knowledge how to fix them)

  When analysing includes in the project it is often assumed that the preferred bracket include syntax (`#include <foo.h>`) mentioned in `developer-docs.md` is used consistently. @sipa:s excellent circular dependencies script [`circular-dependencies.py`](50c69b7801/contrib/devtools/circular-dependencies.py) (#13228) is an example of a script making this reasonable assumption.

  This PR enables automatic Travis checking of the include syntax making sure that the bracket syntax includes (`#include <foo.h>`) is used consistently.

Pull request description:

  The default suggested value is 2 GB. Minimum is 1 GB (550 MB rounded up).

  When the user toggles this setting, a strong warning appears that undoing requires re-downloading the chain:

  <img width="478" alt="schermafbeelding 2018-05-15 om 12 35 24" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10217/40051858-7939cc20-583c-11e8-9120-327a75376732.png">

  Tooltip points out that actual disk usage can be higher. It's a bit vague on the "advanced features", because I'm assuming anyone who needs to use `-rescan` and `-txindex` will read the documentation, and a more detailed text would needlessly confuse everyone else.

  <img width="450" alt="schermafbeelding 2018-05-15 om 12 33 51" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10217/40051791-49d6156a-583c-11e8-97b9-7de6dfd8c481.png">

  The UI uses gigabytes for readability and easy of use. There is also no manual pruning UI (`prune=1`). The user will have to use `bitcoin.conf` for those things.

  Fixes #6461. When combined with #13029 the user, after pruning their node, can safely reset settings and/or use bitcoind without having to edit `bitcoin.conf`. However I don't think that's an essential prerequisite.

Merge #13281: test: Move linters to test/lint, add readme
fa3c910bfe test: Move linters to test/lint, add readme (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  This moves the checks and linters from `devtools` to a subfolder in `test`. (Motivated by my opinion that the dev tools are mostly for generating code and updating the repo whereas the linters are read-only checks.)

  Also, adds a readme to clarify that checks and linters are only meant to prevent bugs and user facing issues, not merely stylistic preference or inconsistencies. (This is motivated by the diversity in developers and work flows as well as existing code styles. It would be too disruptive to change all existing code to a single style or too burdensome to force all developers to adhere to a single style. Also note that our style guide is changing, so locking in at the wrong style "too early" would only waste resources.)

Merge #13134: net: Add option -enablebip61 to configure sending of BIP61 notifications
87fe292d89 doc: Mention disabling BIP61 in bips.md (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
fe16dd8226 net: Add option `-enablebip61` to configure sending of BIP61 notifications (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Pull request description:

  This commit adds a boolean option `-peersendreject`, defaulting to `1`, that can be used to disable the sending of [BIP61](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0061.mediawiki) `reject` messages. This functionality has been requested for various reasons:

  - security (DoS): reject messages can reveal internal state that can be used to target certain resources such as the mempool more easily.

  - bandwidth: a typical node sends lots of reject messages; this counts against upstream bandwidth. Also the reject messages tend to be larger than the message that was rejected.

  On the other hand, reject messages can be useful while developing client software (I found them indispensable while creating bitcoin-submittx), as well as for our own test cases, so whatever the default becomes on the long run, IMO the functionality should be retained as option. But that's a discussion for later, for now it's simply a node operator decision.

  Also adds a RPC test that checks the functionality.
