BOOST_CHECK_THROW merely checks that some std::runtime_error is
thrown, but not which one.
One example of how this could lead to a test passing when a developer
introduces a consensus bug: the test for the sigops limit assumes
that CreateNewBlock fails with bad-blk-sigops. However it can
also fail with bad-txns-vout-negative, e.g. if a naive developer lowers
BLOCKSUBSIDY to 1*COIN in the test.
BOOST_CHECK_EXCEPTION allows an additional predicate function. This
commit uses this for all exceptions that are checked for in
miner_tets.cpp:
* bad-blk-sigops
* bad-cb-multiple
* bad-txns-inputs-missingorspent
* block-validation-failed
An instance of the CheckRejectInvalid class (for a given validation string)
is passed to BOOST_CHECK_EXCEPTION.
If our tip hasn't updated in a while, that may be because our peers are
not relaying blocks to us that we would consider valid. Allow connection
to an additional outbound peer in that circumstance.
Also, periodically check to see if we are exceeding our target number of
outbound peers, and disconnect the one which has least recently
announced a new block to us (choosing the newest such peer in the case
of tie).
The LevelDB docs seem to indicate that an iterator will not take
snapshots (even providing instructions on how to do so yourself).
In several of the places we use them, we assume snapshots to have
been taken.
In order to make sure LevelDB doesn't change out from under us
(and to prevent the next person who reads the docs from having the
same fright I did), verify that snapshots are taken in our tests.
Combine fLimitFree and fOverrideMempoolLimit into a single boolean:
bypass_limits. This is used to indicate that mempool limiting based on feerate
should be bypassed. It is used when readding transactions from a reorg and then
the mempool is trimmed to size after all transactions are added and they can be
evaluated in the context of their descendants. No changes to behavior.
This resolves an issue where estimatesmartfee would return 999
sat/byte instead of 1000, due to floating point loss of precision
Thanks to sipa for suggesting is_integral.
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.
This patch removes the need for the intermediary Base58 type
CBitcoinAddress, by providing {Encode,Decode,IsValid}Destination
function that directly operate on the conversion between strings
and CTxDestination.
`make` rebuilds the entire project. This is quite slow if e.g. you're making changes to one file and only wish to run the bitcoind tests.
This commit adds an instruction to run `make -C src/test` (as opposed to `make src/test` and `make src/test/test_bitcoin`).
In this test, `nTime` is used for all the calls to `Mine()`, each time being set to the correct time beforehand, except for in the last few calls to `Mine()` where `nStartTime` is used directly, even though `nTime` is still set to `nStartTime` beforehand. `nTime` just remains unused for these last few calls to `Mine()`.
Changed the last few calls to `Mine()` to use `nTime` instead, improving consistency. This also fixes an unused value static analyzer warning about `nTime` being set to a value which is never used.
In a signature, it contains an ASN1 integer which isn't strict-DER conformant due to excessive 0xff padding:
