2023-05-20random: switch to using getrandom() directlyfanquake
This requires a linux kernel of 3.17.0+, which seems entirely reasonable. 3.17 went EOL in 2015, and the last supported 3.x kernel (3.16) went EOL > 4 years ago, in 2020. For reference, the current oldest maintained kernel is 4.14 (released 2017, EOL Jan 2024). Support for `getrandom()` (and `getentropy()`) was added to glibc 2.25, https://sourceware.org/legacy-ml/libc-alpha/2017-02/msg00079.html, and we already require 2.27+. All that being said, I don't think you would encounter a current day system, running with kernel headers older than 3.17 (released 2014) but also having a glibc of 2.27+ (released 2018).

For example the `importdescriptors` RPC call is easiest to use `h` as the marker: `'["desc": ".../0h/..."]'`, avoiding the need for escape characters. With this change `listdescriptors` will use `h`, so you can copy-paste the result, without having to add escape characters or switch `'` to 'h' manually. Both markers can still be parsed. The `hdkeypath` field in `getaddressinfo` is also impacted by this change, except for legacy wallets. The latter is to prevent accidentally breaking ancient software that uses our legacy wallet.

Note that this still allows packages to bump transactions that are below the dynamic mempool minimum feerate, which means this still solves the "mempool is congested and my presigned 1sat/vB tx is screwed" problem for all transactions. On master, the package policy (only accessible through regtest-only RPC submitpackage) allows 0-fee (or otherwise below min relay feerate) transactions if they are bumped by a child. However, with default package limits, we don't yet have a DoS-resistant way of ensuring these transactions remain bumped throughout their time in the mempool. Primarily, the fee-bumping child may later be replaced by another transaction that doesn't bump the parent(s). The parent(s) could potentially stay bumped by other transactions, but not enough to ever be selected by the `BlockAssembler` (due to `blockmintxfee`). For example, (tested [here](https://github.com/glozow/bitcoin/commits/26933-motivation)): - The mempool accepts 24 below-minrelayfeerate transactions ("0-fee parents"), all bumped by a single high-fee transaction ("the fee-bumping child"). The fee-bumping child also spends a confirmed UTXO. - Two additional children are added to each 0-fee parent. These children each pay a feerate slightly above the minimum relay feerate (e.g. 1.9sat/vB) such that, for each 0-fee parent, the total fees of its two children divided by the total size of the children and parent is above the minimum relay feerate. - If a block template is built now, all transactions would be selected. - A transaction replaces the the fee-bumping child, spending only the confirmed UTXO and not any of the outputs from the 0-fee parents. - The 0-fee parents now each have 2 children. Their descendant feerates are above minrelayfeerate, which means that they remain in the mempool, even if the mempool evicts all below-minrelayfeerate packages. - If a block template is built now, none of the 0-fee parents or their children would be selected. - Even more low-feerate descendants can be added to these below-minrelayfeerate packages and they will not be evicted until they expire or the mempool reaches capacity. Unless we have a DoS-resistant way of ensuring package CPFP-bumped transactions are always bumped, allowing package CPFP to bump below-minrelayfeerate transactions can result in these problematic situations. See #27018 which proposes a partial solution with some limitations, and contains discussion about potential improvements to eviction strategy. While no adequate solution exists, for now, avoid these situations by requiring all transactions to meet min relay feerate.

Avoid adding transactions below min relay feerate because, even if they were bumped through CPFP when entering the mempool, we do not have a DoS-resistant way of ensuring they always remain bumped.

2023-04-11doc: update OpenBSD build docs for 7.3 (external signer support available)Sebastian Falbesoner
With OpenBSD 7.3, the waitid(2) system call is implemented (see https://github.com/openbsd/src/commit/8112871f19bbd25e86c93d0f901071ca2335a352). This means Boost.Process finally doesn't fail to compile anymore and we can remove the build hint about missing external signer support. Tested on my amd64 machine by reconfiguring / rebuilding master branch and successfully running the functional test wallet_signer.py.

2023-04-04Switch hardened derivation marker to h in descriptorsSjors Provoost
This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually. E.g. an RPC call that takes an array of descriptors can now use '["desc": ".../0h/..."]'. Both markers can still be parsed. The default for new descriptors is changed to h. In normalized form h is also used. For private keys the chosen marker is preserved in a round trip. The hdkeypath field in getaddressinfo is also impacted by this change.

Usage is demonstrated in the example script `contrib/tracing/mempool_monitor.py`. Interface tests are provided in `test/functional/interface_usdt_mempool.py`. The rationale for passing the removal reason as a string instead of numerically is that the benefits of not having to maintain a redundant enum-string mapping seem to outweigh the small cost of string generation. The reject reason is passed as string as well, although in this instance the string does not have to be generated but is readily available.

Tracepoints for added, removed, replaced, and rejected transactions. The removal reason is passed as string instead of a numeric value, since the benefits of not having to maintain a redundant enum-string mapping seem to outweigh the small cost of string generation. The reject reason is passed as string as well, although here the string does not have to be generated but is readily available. So far, tracepoint PRs typically included two demo scripts: a naive bpftrace script to show raw tracepoint data and a bcc script for a more refined view. However, as some of the ongoing changes to bpftrace introduce a certain degree of unreliability (running some of the existing bpftrace scripts was not possible with standard kernels and bpftrace packages on latest stable Ubuntu, Debian, and NixOS), this PR includes only a single bcc script that fuses the functionality of former bpftrace and bcc scripts.

Simultaneously in the background, the already-existing chainstate continues "conventional" IBD to both accumulate full block data and serve as a belt-and-suspenders to validate the assumed-valid chainstate. Once the background chainstate's tip reaches the base block of the snapshot used, we set `m_stop_use` on that chainstate and immediately take the hash of its UTXO set; we verify that this matches the assumeutxo value in the source code. Note that while we ultimately want to remove this background chainstate, we don't do so until the following initialization process, when we again check the UTXO set hash of the background chainstate, and if it continues to match, we remove the (now unnecessary) background chainstate, and move the (previously) assumed-valid chainstate into its place. We then reinitialize the chainstate in the normal way. As noted in previous comments, we could do the filesystem operations "inline" immediately when the background validation completes, but that's basically just an optimization that saves disk space until the next restart. It didn't strike me as worth the risk of moving chainstate data around on disk during runtime of the node, though maybe my concerns are overblown. The final result of this completion process is a fully-validated chain, where the only evidence that the user synced using assumeutxo is the existence of a `base_blockhash` file in the `chainstate` directory.
