New RPC methods: return an estimate of the fee (or priority) a
transaction needs to be likely to confirm in a given number of
blocks.
Mike Hearn created the first version of this method for estimating fees.
It works as follows:
For transactions that took 1 to N (I picked N=25) blocks to confirm,
keep N buckets with at most 100 entries in each recording the
fees-per-kilobyte paid by those transactions.
(separate buckets are kept for transactions that confirmed because
they are high-priority)
The buckets are filled as blocks are found, and are saved/restored
in a new fee_estiamtes.dat file in the data directory.
A few variations on Mike's initial scheme:
To estimate the fee needed for a transaction to confirm in X buckets,
all of the samples in all of the buckets are used and a median of
all of the data is used to make the estimate. For example, imagine
25 buckets each containing the full 100 entries. Those 2,500 samples
are sorted, and the estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the very
next block is the 50'th-highest-fee-entry in that sorted list; the
estimate of the fee needed to confirm in the next two blocks is the
150'th-highest-fee-entry, etc.
That algorithm has the nice property that estimates of how much fee
you need to pay to get confirmed in block N will always be greater
than or equal to the estimate for block N+1. It would clearly be wrong
to say "pay 11 uBTC and you'll get confirmed in 3 blocks, but pay
12 uBTC and it will take LONGER".
A single block will not contribute more than 10 entries to any one
bucket, so a single miner and a large block cannot overwhelm
the estimates.

Choose ports at startup based on PID, so multiple regression tests
can run on the same system at the same time.
|
|
Add a new test, `rpcbind_test.py`, that extensively tests the new
`-rpcbind` functionality.

Syntax Highlighting

This should show how to run a python-based regression test
successfully in the pull-tester environment.
|
|
Taught bitcoind to close the HTTP connection after it gets a 'stop' command,
to make it easier for the regression tests to cleanly stop.
Move bitcoinrpc files to correct location.
Tidied up the python-based regression tests.

- Add license headers to source files (years based on commit dates)
in `src/test` as well as `qa`
- Add `README.md` to `src/test/data` specifying MIT license
Fixes #3848

Use the spent outpoint multimap to figure out which wallet transaction
outputs are unspent, instead of a vfSpent array that is saved
to disk.

Wallet locking fixes for -DDEBUG_LOCKORDER
|
|
|
|
Compiling with -DDEBUG_LOCKORDER and running the qa/rpc-test/ regression
tests uncovered a couple of wallet methods that should (but didn't)
acquire the cs_wallet mutext.
I also changed the AssertLockHeld() routine print to stderr and
abort, instead of printing to debug.log and then assert()'ing.
It is annoying to look in debug.log to find out which
AssertLockHeld is failing.

Adds a "walletconflicts" array to transaction info; if
a wallet transaction is mutated, the alternate transaction id
or ids are reported there (usually the array will be empty).
Metadata from the original transaction is copied to the mutant,
so the transaction time and "from" account of the mutant are
reported correctly.

Extend CMerkleTx::GetDepthInMainChain with the concept of
a "conflicted" transaction-- a transaction generated by the wallet
that is not in the main chain or in the mempool, and, therefore,
will likely never be confirmed.
GetDepthInMainChain() now returns -1 for conflicted transactions
(0 for unconfirmed-but-in-the-mempool, and >1 for confirmed).
This makes getbalance, getbalance '*', and listunspent all agree when there are
mutated transactions in the wallet.
Before:
listunspent: one 49BTC output
getbalance: 96 BTC (change counted twice)
getbalance '*': 46 BTC (spends counted twice)
After: all agree, 49 BTC available to spend.

Reworked send.sh, so it works properly on my Mac (killall send.sh
doesn't work, because the process name is 'bash' not 'send.sh').
So now send.sh writes a .send.pid file, and invoking it as
send.sh -STOP (as the bitcoind -walletnotify) signals that PID.

Add a function `WaitBlocks` to wait for blocks to propagate to all three
nodes, and use this instead of waiting a fixed time of one second.
Fixes #3445.

qa/rpc-tests/wallet.sh runs a three-node -regtest network,
generates a fresh blockchain, and then exercises basic wallet
sending/receiving functionality using command-line RPC.
