Here are a few of them. Notable changes: 1. When `MAX_JOBS` is specified, both `guix time-machine` and `guix environment` will now build up to `MAX_JOBS` packages at a time when creating the build environment 2. The instructions for using substitutes were incorrect, and has now been replaced with a `SUBSTITUTE_URLS` environment variable, which works well with shell's IFS splitting rules 3. New `ADDITIONAL_GUIX_{COMMON,TIMEMACHINE}_FLAGS` options, for more granular customization of the build process. 4.

5c3eaf9983043db1b61a98c95d692a6958670b86 doc: Add warnings for http interfaces limitations (Fabian Jahr) Pull request description: `libevent`, which is used for our rest interface, can use up all of the available file descriptors in a system if too many connections are opened at once. If a new block is connected at the same time and can not be written to disk because there are no file descriptors available, the node crashes. Based on my investigation so far the issue is best solved upstream which means we have to wait for the next release (2.2). In the meantime it would be good if we would warn users of this limitation.

This is problematic for several reasons: * It wastes disk space north of 20 GB, as all libraries and sanitizers are linked more than 150 times * It wastes CPU time, as the link step can practically not be cached (similar to ccache for object files) * It makes it a blocker to compile the fuzz tests by default for non-fuzz builds #19388, for the aforementioned reasons * The build file is several thousand lines of code, without doing anything meaningful except listing each fuzz target in a highly verbose manner * It makes writing new fuzz tests unnecessarily hard, as build system knowledge is required; Compare that to boost unit tests, which can be added by simply editing an existing cpp file * It encourages fuzz tests that re-use the `buffer` or assume the `buffer` to be concatenations of seeds, which increases complexity of seeds and complexity for the fuzz engine to explore; Thus reducing the effectiveness of the affected fuzz targets Fixes #20088 ACKs for top commit: practicalswift: Tested ACK fa13e1b0c52738492310b6b421d8e38cb04da5b1 sipa: ACK fa13e1b0c52738492310b6b421d8e38cb04da5b1.

The newly introduced states are changed on the following places in the code: * on reception of a `SENDCMPCT` message with valid version, the field `m_highbandwidth_from` is changed depending on the first integer parameter in the message (1=high bandwidth, 0=low bandwidth), i.e. it just mirrors the field `CNodeState.fPreferHeaderAndIDs`. * after adding a `SENDCMPCT` message to the send queue, the field `m_highbandwidth_to` is changed depending on how the first integer parameter is set (same as above) Note that after receiving `VERACK`, the node also sends `SENDCMPCT`, but that is only to announce the preferred version and never selects high-bandwidth mode, hence there is no need to change the state variables there, which are initialized to `false` anyways.

a52ecc936a267cae97c2f313743bf75d5af07700 build: set minimum supported macOS to 10.14 (fanquake) Pull request description: This is a requirement for C++17 support. See my comments [here](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-643722538): > You cannot use std::get with std::variant on macOS < 10.14, because Apples libc++ doesn't support the std::bad_variant_access exception. [Relevant comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/19183#discussion_r439794318) in #19183. > While we could work around this in our own code, using std::get_if, this would still be a problem for 3rd-party dependencies. > I've been testing Qt 5.15LTS (we'll have to enable C++17 in qt, and may upgrade to a newer version at the same time), and you can't enable -std c++17, while targeting a macOS deployment version < 10.14, configuring will fail. They are making use of std::get with std::variant throughout their cocoa code. We would have to had to have bumped to at least 10.13 in any case, as Qt 5.15 (#19716) [requires 10.13+](https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/supported-platforms.html).

The minor version, which we had been using as the major version, is now the major version. The revision, which we had been using as the minor version, is now the minor version. The revision number is dropped. The build number is promoted to being part of the version number. This also avoids issues where it was accidentally not included in the version number. The CLIENT_VERSION remains the same format as previous as previously, as the Major version was 0 so it never actually got included in it. The user agent string formatter is updated to follow this new versioning. *** Honestly I'm just tired of all of the people asking for "1.0" that maybe this'll shut them up. Skip the whole 1.0 thing and go straight to version 22.0! Also, this means that the terminology we commonly use lines up with how the variables are named. So major versions are actually bumping the major version number, etc. ACKs for top commit: jnewbery: Code review ACK 8f7b930475 MarcoFalke: review ACK 8f7b93047581c67f2133cdb8c7845471de66c30f 🎻 Tree-SHA512: b5c3fae14d4c0a9c0ab3b1db7c949ecc0ac3537646306b13d98dd0efc17c489cdd16d43f0a24aaa28e9c4a92ea360500e05480a335b03f9fb308010cdd93a436

dc80a7d0b0817b43d41af3a08b5800c425ebd5d8 docs/descriptors.md: Remove hardened marker in the path after xpub (Dmitry Petukhov) Pull request description: As described in "Key origin identification" section, a descriptor that has hardened derivation after xpub does not let you compute scripts without access to the corresponding private keys. Such a descriptor is practically useless. The text after the descriptor said "with child key *1'/2* of the specified xpub", and clearly an xpub cannot have "child key" with hardened derivation. Therefore it makes sense to fix this inconsistency to not confuse the reader of the doc Top commit has no ACKs.

Removes the leading 0 from the version number. The minor version, which we had been using as the major version, is now the major version. The revision, which we had been using as the minor version, is now the minor version. The revision number is dropped. The build number is promoted to being part of the version number. This also avoids issues where it was accidentally not included in the version number. The CLIENT_VERSION remains the same format as previous as previously, the Major version was 0 so that was never a factor in CLIENT_VERSION.

There is a chance that old versions parse its contents as garbage and use it. Old versions expect the "key size" field to be 32 and fail the parsing if it is not. Thus, we put something other than 32 in it. This will make versions between 0.11.0 and 0.20.1 deterministically fail on the new format.
