disconnectnode() can currently only be called with the IP address/port
of the node the user wishes to connect. This commit allows the node to
be disconnected using the nodeid returned by getpeerinfo().
There is no point in even hashing a submitted block which doesn't have
a coinbase transaction.
This also results in more useful error reporting on corrupted input.
Thanks to rawodb for the bug report.
This changes the logging categories to boolean flags instead of strings.
This simplifies the acceptance testing by avoiding accessing a scoped
static thread local pointer to a thread local set of strings. It
eliminates the only use of boost::thread_specific_ptr outside of
lockorder debugging.
This change allows log entries to be directed to multiple categories
and makes it easy to change the logging flags at runtime (e.g. via
an RPC, though that isn't done by this commit.)
It also eliminates the fDebug global.
Configuration of unknown logging categories now produces a warning.
It has no business in `rpcserver.h`. Define it in the interface header
of the implementation unit `rpcblockchain` where it is defined.
Also modernize the signature to:
double GetDifficulty(const CBlockIndex* blockindex = nullptr);
(remove `extern`, replace `NULL` with `nullptr`)
This adds a mode argument to `getmemoryinfo`. By default the output
will remain the same. However if a mode argument of `mallocinfo` is
provided the result of glibc `malloc_info` (if available) will
be returned as a string, as-is.
This is useful for tracking heap usage over time or troubleshooting
memory fragmentation issues.
Segwit's version bit will be signalled for all invocations of CreateNewBlock,
and not specifying segwit only will cause CreateNewBlock to skip transactions
with witness from being selected.
RPC_INVALID_REQUEST and RPC_METHOD_NOT_FOUND are mapped internally to
HTTP error codes and should not be used for application-layer errors.
This commit adds commenting around those definitions to warn not to use
them for application errors.
The setban() RPC was returning misleading or incorrect error
codes (for example RPC_CLIENT_NODE_ALREADY_ADDED when an invalid IP
address was entered). This commit fixes those error codes:
- RPC_CLIENT_INVALID_IP_OR_SUBNET should be returned if the client
enters an invalid IP address or subnet.
This commit also updates the test cases to explicitly test the error code.
This commit also adds a testcase for trying to setban on an invalid subnet.
RPCs in blockchain.cpp were returning misleading or incorrect error
codes (for example getblock() returning RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR when the
block had been pruned). This commit fixes those error codes:
- RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR should not be returned for application-level
errors, only for genuine internal errors such as corrupted data.
- RPC_METHOD_NOT_FOUND should not be returned in response to a
JSON request for an existing method.
Those error codes have been replaced with RPC_MISC_ERROR or
RPC_INVALID_PARAMETER as appropriate.
This a breaking API change to the prioritisetransaction RPC call which previously required exactly three arguments and now requires exactly two (hash and feeDelta). The function prioritiseTransaction is also updated.
"startingpriority" and "currentpriority" are no longer returned in the JSON information about a mempool entry. This affects getmempoolancestors, getmempooldescendants, getmempooolentry, and getrawmempool.
Remove -limitfreerelay and always enforce minRelayTxFee in the mempool (except from disconnected blocks)
Remove -relaypriority, the option was only used for the ability to allow free transactions to be relayed regardless of their priority. Both notions no longer apply.
