This makes it possible to mine to any wallet when multi-wallet mode is added.
Solves the same problem as #10649, but IMO in a cleaner way.
It also gets rid of the circuitous `ScriptForMining` method on
`CValidationInterface`, which really doesn't belong there.
After this change it's still possible to mine without wallet through
`generatetoaddress`.
This was a long-standing and annoying problem.
If autogen.sh was not manually run after touching configure.ac,
bitcoin-config.h would not be properly regenerated. This causes very subtle
problems when configure appears to enable a new value, but it does not end up
reflected in the build.
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`)
CVectorWriter is useful for overwriting or appending an existing byte vector.
CNetMsgMaker is a shortcut for creating messages on-the-fly which are suitable
for pushing to CConnman.
Add a pool for locked memory chunks, replacing LockedPageManager.
This is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. The current
approach of locking objects where they happen to be on the stack or heap
in-place causes a lot of mlock/munlock system call overhead, slowing
down any handling of keys.
Also locked memory is a limited resource on many operating systems (and
using a lot of it bogs down the system), so the previous approach of
locking every page that may contain any key information (but also other
information) is wasteful.
Saves about 10% of application memory usage once the mempool warms up. Since the
mempool is DynamicUsage-regulated, this will translate to a larger mempool in
the same amount of space.
Map value type: eliminate the vin index; no users of the map need to know which
input of the transaction is spending the prevout.
Map key type: replace the COutPoint with a pointer to a COutPoint. A COutPoint
is 36 bytes, but each COutPoint is accessible from the same map entry's value.
A trivial DereferencingComparator functor allows indirect map keys, but the
resulting syntax is misleading: `map.find(&outpoint)`. Implement an indirectmap
that acts as a wrapper to a map that uses a DereferencingComparator, supporting
a syntax that accurately reflect the container's semantics: inserts and
iterators use pointers since they store pointers and need them to remain
constant and dereferenceable, but lookup functions take const references.
- clear the __pycache__ during 'make clean'
- Copy the qrc locale file to a temp location and remove it when finished
(rcc expects everything to be in the same path)
Wallet must come before crypto, otherwise linking fails on some platforms.
Includes a tangentially-related general cleanup rather than making the Makefile
sloppier.
leveldb's buildsystem causes us a few problems:
- breaks out-of-tree builds
- forces flags used for some tools
- limits cross builds
Rather than continuing to add wrappers around it, simply integrate it into our
build.
Split out methods to every module, apart from 'help' and 'stop' which
are implemented in rpcserver.cpp itself.
- This makes it easier to add or remove RPC commands - no longer everything that includes
rpcserver.h has to be rebuilt when there's a change there.
- Cleans up `rpc/server.h` by getting rid of the huge cluttered list of function definitions.
- Removes most of the bitcoin-specific code from rpcserver.cpp and .h.
Continues #7307 for the non-wallet.
