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:
0xffda47bfc776bcd269da4832626ac332adfca6dd835e8ecd83cd1ebe7d709b0e
This is necessary because core_write has to write amounts in
TxToUniv, and mistakingly uses FormatMoney for that
(which is only for debugging).
We don't move AmountFromValue at the same time, as
this is more challenging due to the RPCError depencency
there.
* Move the writing of fTxIndex to LoadBlockIndex - this fixes a
bug introduced in d6af06d68a where
InitBlockIndex was writing to fTxIndex which had not yet been
checked (because LoadChainTip hadn't yet initialized the
chainActive, which would otherwise have resulted in
InitBlockIndex being a NOP), allowing you to modify -txindex
without reindex, potentially corrupting your chainstate!
* Rename InitBlockIndex to LoadGenesisBlock, which is now a more
natural name for it. Also check mapBlockIndex instead of
chainActive, fixing a bug where we'd write the genesis block out
on every start.
This redefines dust to be the value of an output such that it would
cost that value in fees to (create and) spend the output at the dust
relay rate. The previous definition was that it would cost 1/3 of the
value. The default dust relay rate is correspondingly increased to
3000 sat/kB so the actual default dust output value of 546 satoshis
for a non-segwit output remains unchanged. This commit is a refactor
only unless a dustrelayfee is passed on the commandline in which case
that number now needs to be increased by a factor of 3 to get the same
behavior. -dustrelayfee is a hidden command line option.
Note: It's not exactly a refactor due to edge case changes in rounding
as evidenced by the required change to the unit test.
This check has been moved to the wallet logic GetMinimumFee. The rpc call to
estimatesmartfee will now no longer return a result maxed with the mempool min
fee, but automated fee calculations from the wallet will produce the same result
as before and coincontrol and sendcoins dialogs in the GUI will correctly
display the right prospective fee.
changes to policy/fees.cpp include a big whitespace indentation change.
Some people keep thinking that MAX_BLOCK_BASE_SIZE is a separate
size limit from the weight limit when it fact it is superfluous,
and used in early tests before the witness data has been
validated or just to compute worst case sizes. The size checks
that use it would not behave any differently consensus wise
if they were eliminated completely.
Its correct value is not independently settable but is a function
of the weight limit and weight formula.
This patch just eliminates it and uses the scale factor as
required to compute the worse case constants.
It also moves the weight factor out of primitives into consensus,
which is a more logical place for it.
That OP_NOP10 is the last executable opcode is a bit of a obscure trivia, and the MAX_OPCODE constant already exists. This merely standardizes use of MAX_OPCODE over OP_NOP10 where it makes sense and is more clear.
Note that the CScheduler thread cant be running at this point,
it has already been stopped with the rest of the init threadgroup.
Thus, just calling any remaining loose callbacks during Shutdown()
is sane.
Check that cached script execution results are only valid for the same
script flags; that script execution checks are returned for non-cached
transactions; and that cached results are only valid for transactions
with the same witness hash.
This removes the possibility for GetCoin/HaveCoin/HaveCoinInCache to return
true while the respective coin is spent. By doing it across all calls, some
extra checks can be eliminated.
coins_tests is modified to call HaveCoin sometimes before and sometimes
after AccessCoin. A further change is needed because the semantics for
GetCoin slightly changed, causing a pruned entry in the parent cache to not
be pulled into the child in FetchCoin.
A few "a->an" and "an->a".
"Shows, if the supplied default SOCKS5 proxy" -> "Shows if the supplied default SOCKS5 proxy". Change made on 3 occurrences.
"without fully understanding the ramification of a command" -> "without fully understanding the ramifications of a command".
Removed duplicate words such as "the the".
In order to prevent mixups, our internal range is never allowed as a resolve
result. This means that no user-provided string will ever be confused with an
internal address.
We currently do two resolves for dns seeds: one for the results, and one to
serve in addrman as the source for those addresses.
There's no requirement that the source hostname resolves to the stored
identifier, only that the mapping is unique. So rather than incurring the
second lookup, combine a private subnet with a hash of the hostname.
The resulting v6 ip is guaranteed not to be publicy routable, and has only a
negligible chance of colliding with a user's internal network (which would be
of no consequence anyway).
