This adds a -prune=N option to bitcoind, which if set to N>0 will enable block
file pruning. When pruning is enabled, block and undo files will be deleted to
try to keep total space used by those files to below the prune target (N, in
MB) specified by the user, subject to some constraints:
- The last 288 blocks on the main chain are always kept (MIN_BLOCKS_TO_KEEP),
- N must be at least 550MB (chosen as a value for the target that could
reasonably be met, with some assumptions about block sizes, orphan rates,
etc; see comment in main.h),
- No blocks are pruned until chainActive is at least 100,000 blocks long (on
mainnet; defined separately for mainnet, testnet, and regtest in chainparams
as nPruneAfterHeight).
This unsets NODE_NETWORK if pruning is enabled.
Also included is an RPC test for pruning (pruning.py).
Thanks to @rdponticelli for earlier work on this feature; this is based in
part off that work.

6be3562 rpc-tests: Add proxy test (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
67a7949 privacy: Stream isolation for Tor (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
|
|
Comment by pryds on Transifex.
|
|
|
|
According to Tor's extensions to the SOCKS protocol
(https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/socks-extensions.txt)
it is possible to perform stream isolation by providing authentication
to the proxy. Each set of credentials will create a new circuit,
which makes it harder to correlate connections.
This patch adds an option, `-proxyrandomize` (on by default) that randomizes
credentials for every outgoing connection, thus creating a new circuit.

77650cc add -walletbroadcast=0 rpc test (Jonas Schnelli)
6f25262 wallet: make it possible to disable transaction broadcast (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
|
|
This is an advanced feature which will disable any kind of automatic
transaction broadcasting in the wallet. This gives the user full control
of how the transaction is sent.
For example they can broadcast new transactions through some other
mechanism themselves, after getting the transaction hex through `gettransaction`.
This just adds the option `-walletbroadcast=<0,1>`. Right now these
transactions will get the status
Status: conflicted, has not been successfully broadcast yet
They shouldn't be shown as conflicted at all (`walletconflicts` is empty). This status
will go away when the transaction is received through the network.
|
|
This adds a -checkblockindex (defaulting to true for regtest), which occasionally
does a full consistency check for mapBlockIndex, setBlockIndexCandidates, chainActive, and
mapBlocksUnlinked.

. Closes the bug from commit e179eb3d9bfec7e67908242c71c87b716a41c97c
("bitcoin-qt -help" did not show any message)
. Move all the options in init.cpp (there were already some
options related to bitcoin-qt)

Help messages are formatted programmatically with FormatParagraph
in order not to break existing strings in Transifex.
The new format works even if the translation of the strings
modifies the lenght of the message.
Sqashed 6 commits in a single one.

Rebased by @laanwj:
- update for RPC methods added since 84d13ee: setmocktime,
invalidateblock, reconsiderblock. Only the first, setmocktime, required a change,
the other two are thread safe.

44bc988 [Wallet] Do not flush the wallet in AddToWalletIfInvolvingMe(..) (Cozz Lovan)
|
|
This avoids a regression for issues like #334 where high speed
repeated connections eventually run the HTTP client out of
sockets because all of theirs end up in time_wait.
Maybe the trade-off here is suboptimal, but if both choices will
fail then we prefer fewer changes until the root cause is solved.
|
|
It turns out that some miners have been staying with old versions of
Bitcoin Core because their software behaves poorly with persistent
connections and the Bitcoin Core thread and connection limits.
What happens is that underlying HTTP libraries leave connections open
invisibly to their users and then the user runs into the default four
thread limit. This looks like Bitcoin Core is unresponsive to RPC.
There are many things that should be improved in Bitcoin Core's behavior
here, e.g. supporting more concurrent connections, not tying up threads
for idle connections, disconnecting kept-alive connections when limits
are reached, etc. All are fairly big, risky changes.
Disabling keep-alive is a simple workaround. It's often not easy to turn
off the keep-alive support in the client where it may be buried in some
platform library.
If you are one of the few who really needs persistent connections you
probably know that you want them and can find a switch; while if you
don't and the misbehavior is hitting you it is hard to discover the
source of your problems is keepalive related. Given that it is best
to default to off until they're handled better.

aa279d6 Enforce minRelayTxFee on wallet created tx and add a maxtxfee option. (Gregory Maxwell)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Previously the minRelayTxFee was only enforced on user specified values.
It was possible for smartfee to produce a fee below minRelayTxFee which
would just result in the transaction getting stuck because it can't be
relayed.
This also introduces a maxtxfee option which sets an absolute maximum
for any fee created by the wallet, with an intention of increasing
user confidence that the automatic fees won't burn them. This was
frequently a concern even before smartfees.
If the configured fee policy won't even allow the wallet to meet the relay
fee the transaction creation may be aborted.

- I saw this on http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/try_catch and
thought it would be a good idea
- also unify used format to better be able to search for exception

a206950 Introduce separate flushing modes (Pieter Wuille)
51ce901 Improve chainstate/blockindex disk writing policy (Pieter Wuille)
|
|
There are 3 pieces of data that are maintained on disk. The actual block
and undo data, the block index (which can refer to positions on disk),
and the chainstate (which refers to the best block hash).
Earlier, there was no guarantee that blocks were written to disk before
block index entries referring to them were written. This commit introduces
dirty flags for block index data, and delays writing entries until the actual
block data is flushed.
With this stricter ordering in writes, it is now safe to not always flush
after every block, so there is no need for the IsInitialBlockDownload()
check there - instead we just write whenever enough time has passed or
the cache size grows too large. Also updating the wallet's best known block
is delayed until this is done, otherwise the wallet may end up referring to an
unknown block.
In addition, only do a write inside the block processing loop if necessary
(because of cache size exceeded). Otherwise, move the writing to a point
after processing is done, after relaying.

Previously -proxy was not setting the proxy for IsLimited networks, so
if you set your configuration to be onlynet=tor you wouldn't get an
IPv4 proxy set.
The payment protocol gets its proxy configuration from the IPv4 proxy,
and so it would experience a connection leak.
This addresses issue #5355 and also clears up a cosmetic bug where
getinfo proxy output shows nothing when onlynet=tor is set.

845c86d Do not use third party services for IP detection. (Gregory Maxwell)
|
|
This is a simplified re-do of closed pull #3088.
This patch eliminates the privacy and reliability problematic use
of centralized web services for discovering the node's addresses
for advertisement.
The Bitcoin protocol already allows your peers to tell you what
IP they think you have, but this data isn't trustworthy since
they could lie. So the challenge is using it without creating a
DOS vector.
To accomplish this we adopt an approach similar to the one used
by P2Pool: If we're announcing and don't have a better address
discovered (e.g. via UPNP) or configured we just announce to
each peer the address that peer told us. Since peers could
already replace, forge, or drop our address messages this cannot
create a new vulnerability... but if even one of our peers is
giving us a good address we'll eventually make a useful
advertisement.
We also may randomly use the peer-provided address for the
daily rebroadcast even if we otherwise have a seemingly routable
address, just in case we've been misconfigured (e.g. by UPNP).
To avoid privacy problems, we only do these things if discovery
is enabled.

This is less surprising.
Avoids the overload-the-CPU default of using N threads for script
verification as well as N threads for generation where N is number of cores.

Helps for troubleshooting.

Start the RPC server before doing all the (expensive) startup
initialisations like loading the block index. Until the node is ready,
return all calls immediately with a new error signalling "in warmup"
with an appropriate status message (similar to the init message).
This is useful for RPC clients to know that the server is there (e. g.,
they don't have to start it) but not yet available. It is used in
Namecoin and Huntercoin already for some time, and there exists a UI
hooked onto the RPC interface that actively uses this to its advantage.
