2712742 doc: Update FreeBSD build instructions to use bdb4 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) d95c83d contrib: FreeBSD compatibility in install_db4.sh (Wladimir J. van der Laan) c0298b0 contrib: Make X=Y arguments work in install_db4 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) b798f9b contrib: New clang patch for install_db4 (Wladimir J. van der Laan) Pull request description: This PR improves the BSD compatibility of the bdb4 installer script. See #11921, #11868. I've tested this on OpenBSD 6.2 (clang) and Ubuntu 16.04 (gcc). This needs testing on OSX at least, ~~and on gcc/Linux to make sure that applying the patch unconditionally doesn't negatively affect gcc~~. ~~NB: this is not yet sufficient to make `install_db4.sh` work on FreeBSD, as we need to use yet another `sha256` tool there. But it's a step in the right direction.~~ ### contrib: New clang patch for install_db4 Replace the clang patch with a new and improved version that also fixes the build issues with OpenBSD and FreeBSD's clang, and apply it unconditionally. Thanks to @fanquake for finding the patch. ### contrib: Make X=Y arguments work in install_db4 Trailing X=Y arguments are supposed to be passed through unchanged to bdb's configure. This was not the case, at least with OpenBSD 6.2's shell. Fix this by not storing the arguments in a temporary variable but passing "$@" through directly. ### contrib: FreeBSD compatibility in install_db4.sh Unfortunately, FreeBSD uses yet another syntax for `sha256`. Support FreeBSD's syntax too. Using `uname` is a bit of a hack but it works and I found no way to distinguish the two.

Verify-Commits
Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the above github-merge.py script.
Linearize
Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.
Qos
A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Bitcoin network. This means one can have an always-on bitcoind instance running, and another local bitcoind/bitcoin-qt instance which connects to this node and receives blocks from it.
Seeds
Utility to generate the pnSeed[] array that is compiled into the client.
Build Tools and Keys
Debian
Contains files used to package bitcoind/bitcoin-qt for Debian-based Linux systems. If you compile bitcoind/bitcoin-qt yourself, there are some useful files here.
Gitian-descriptors
Files used during the gitian build process. For more information about gitian, see the the Bitcoin Core documentation repository.
Gitian-keys
PGP keys used for signing Bitcoin Core Gitian release results.

RPM
RPM spec file for building bitcoin-core on RPM based distributions.
Gitian-build
Script for running full Gitian builds.
Test and Verify Tools
TestGen
Utilities to generate test vectors for the data-driven Bitcoin tests.
Verify Binaries
This script attempts to download and verify the signature file SHA256SUMS.asc from bitcoin.org.
