Merge #13247: Add tests to SingleThreadedSchedulerClient() and document the memory model 
cbeaa91dbb Update ValidationInterface() documentation to explicitly specify threading and memory model (Jesse Cohen)
b296b425a7 Update documentation for SingleThreadedSchedulerClient() to specify the memory model (Jesse Cohen)
9994d01d8b Add Unit Test for SingleThreadedSchedulerClient (Jesse Cohen)

Pull request description:

  As discussed in #13023 I've split this test out into a separate pr

  This test (and documentation update) makes explicit the guarantee (previously undefined, but implied by the 'SingleThreaded' in `SingleThreadedSchedulerClient()`) - that callbacks pushed to the `SingleThreadedSchedulerClient()` obey the single threaded model for memory and execution - specifically, the callbacks are executed fully and in order, and even in cases where a subsequent callback is executed by a different thread, sequential consistency of memory for all threads executing these callbacks is maintained.

  Maintaining memory consistency should make the api more developer friendly - especially for users of the validationinterface. To the extent that there are performance implications from this decision, these are not currently present in practice because all use of this scheduler happens on a single thread currently, furthermore the lock should guarantee consistency across callback executions even when callbacks are executed by multiple threads (as the test does).

Bitcoin Core integration/staging tree

Build Status

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.

For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/, or read the original whitepaper.

License

Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is regularly built and tested, but is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python, that are run automatically on the build server. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.

Translators should also subscribe to the mailing list.
