2014-07-03Move fee policy out of coreGavin Andresen
2014-07-03Use fee/priority estimates in wallet CreateTransactionGavin Andresen
The wallet now uses the mempool fee estimator with a new command-line option: -txconfirmtarget (default: 1) instead of using hard-coded fees or priorities. A new bitcoind that hasn't seen enough transactions to estimate will fall back to the old hard-coded minimum priority or transaction fee. -paytxfee option overrides -txconfirmtarget. Relaying and mining code isn't changed. For Qt, the coin control dialog now uses priority estimates to label transaction priority (instead of hard-coded constants); unspent outputs were consistently labeled with a much higher priority than is justified by the free transactions actually being accepted into blocks. I did not implement any GUI for setting -txconfirmtarget; I would suggest getting rid of the "Pay transaction fee" GUI and replace it with either "target number of confirmations" or maybe a "faster confirmation <--> lower fee" slider or select box.

2014-06-27Add -respendnotify option and new RPC dataTom Harding
-respendnotify=<cmd> Execute command when a network tx respends wallet tx input (%s=respend TxID, %t=wallet TxID) Add respendsobserved array to gettransaction, listtransactions, and listsinceblock RPCs. This omits the malleated clones that are included in the walletconflicts array. Add RPC help for respendsobserved and walletconflicts (help was missing for the latter).
2014-06-27Relay double-spends, subject to anti-DOSTom Harding
Allows network wallets and other clients to see transactions that respend a prevout already spent in an unconfirmed transaction in this node's mempool. Knowledge of an attempted double-spend is of interest to recipients of the first spend. In some cases, it will allow these recipients to withhold goods or services upon being alerted of a double-spend that deprives them of payment. As before, respends are not added to the mempool. Anti-Denial-of-Service-Attack provisions: - Use a bloom filter to relay only one respend per mempool prevout - Rate-limit respend relays to a default of 100 thousand bytes/minute - Define tx2.IsEquivalentTo(tx1): equality when scriptSigs are not considered - Do not relay these equivalent transactions Remove an unused variable declaration in txmempool.cpp.

2014-06-23build: fix build weirdness after 54372482.Cory Fields
bitcoin-config.h moved, but the old file is likely to still exist when reconfiguring or switching branches. This would've caused files to not rebuild correctly, and other strange problems. Make the path explicit so that the old one cannot be found. Core libs use config/bitcoin-config.h. Libs (like crypto) which don't want access to bitcoin's headers continue to use -Iconfig and #include bitcoin-config.h.

- add DEFAULT_LISTEN in net.h and use in the code (shared setting between core and GUI) Important: This makes it obvious, that we need to re-think the settings/options handling, as GUI settings are processed before any parameter-interaction (which is mostly important for network stuff) in AppInit2()!

2014-06-06estimatefee / estimatepriority RPC methodsGavin Andresen
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.
2014-06-06Type-safe CFeeRate classGavin Andresen
Use CFeeRate instead of an int64_t for quantities that are fee-per-size. Helps prevent unit-conversion mismatches between the wallet, relaying, and mining code.

2014-06-03key.cpp: fail with a friendlier message on missing ssl EC supportAndrew Poelstra
Previously if bitcoind is linked with an OpenSSL which is compiled without EC support, this is seen as an assertion failure "pKey != NULL" at key.cpp:134, which occurs after several seconds. It is an esoteric piece of knowledge to interpret this as "oops, I linked with the wrong OpenSSL", and because of the delay it may not even be noticed. The new output is : OpenSSL appears to lack support for elliptic curve cryptography. For more information, visit https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/OpenSSL_and_EC_Libraries : Initialization sanity check failed. Bitcoin Core is shutting down. which occurs immediately after attempted startup. This also blocks in an InitSanityCheck() function which currently only checks for EC support but should eventually do more. See #4081.

2014-05-01Remove build-time no-IPv6 settingWladimir J. van der Laan
The year is 2014. All supported operating systems have IPv6 support, most certainly at build time (this doesn't mean that IPv6 is configured, of course). If noone is exercising the functionality to disable it, that means it doesn't get tested, and IMO it's better to get rid of it. (it's also not used consistently in RPC/boost and Net code...)
