2021-04-07Drop JSONRPCRequest constructors after #21366Russell Yanofsky
This just makes an additional simplification after #21366 replaced util::Ref with std::any. It was originally suggested https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21366#issuecomment-792044351 but delayed for a followup. It would have prevented usage bug https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21572.

916ab0195d567fd0a9097045e73a6654c453adea remove unused class util::Ref and its unit test (Sebastian Falbesoner) 8dbb87a3932f81e23ba7afd865b9aeeb535f0c20 refactor: replace util::Ref by std::any (C++17) (Sebastian Falbesoner) 95cccf8a4b392959c1fd7ec0647e04eb13880865 util: introduce helper AnyPtr to access std::any instances (Sebastian Falbesoner) Pull request description: As described in `util/ref.h`: "_This implements a small subset of the functionality in C++17's std::any class, and **can be dropped when the project updates to C++17**_". For accessing the contained object of a `std::any` instance, a helper template function `AnyPtr` is introduced (thanks to ryanofsky). ACKs for top commit: hebasto: re-ACK 916ab0195d567fd0a9097045e73a6654c453adea, with command ryanofsky: Code review ACK 916ab0195d567fd0a9097045e73a6654c453adea. Changes since last review: rebase and replacing types with `auto`. I might have used `const auto*` and `auto*` instead of plain `auto` because I think the qualifiers are useful, but this is all good.

Make it a top-level component with lifetime owned by node.context, and add a reference to addrman in peerman. This allows us to eliminate some functions in connman that are simply forwarding requests to addrman, and simplifies the connman-peerman interface. By constructing the addrman in init, we can also add parameters to the ctor, which allows us to test it better. See #20233, where we enable consistency checking for addrman in our functional tests.

This currently still checks for the function `daemon()` which makes no sense as it's not used. It should check for individual functions such as `fork()` and `setsid()` etcβ€”the former being required, the second optional. - [-] ~~Signal propagation during initialization: if say, pressing Ctrl-C during `-daemonwait` it would be good to pass this SIGINT on to the child process instead of detaching the parent process and letting the child run free.~~ This is not necessary, see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/21007#issuecomment-769007341.

There may be seemingly obvious local references to `ChainstateManager` or other validation objects which are not being used in callers of the current function in question, this is done intentionally to **_keep each commit centered around one function/method_** to ease review and to make the overall change systematic. We don't assume anything about our callers. Rest assured that once we are considering that particular caller in later commits, we will use the obvious local references. [Commits of overall PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20158/commits) 3. When changing a function/method that has many callers (e.g. `LookupBlockIndex` with 55 callers), it is sometimes easier (and less error-prone) to use a scripted-diff. When doing so, there will be 3 commits in sequence so that every commit compiles like so: 1. Add `new_function`, make `old_function` a wrapper of `new_function`, divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the local module only** 2. Scripted-diff to divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the rest of the codebase** 3.

2021-02-17time: add runtime sanity checkCory Fields
std::chrono::system_clock.time_since_epoch and time_t(0) are not guaranteed to use the Unix epoch timestamp, but in practice they almost certainly will. Any differing behavior will be assumed to be an error, unless certain platforms prove to consistently deviate, at which point we'll cope with it by adding offsets. Do a quick runtime check to verify that time_t(0) == std::chrono::system_clock's epoch time == unix epoch. Co-authored-by: Anthony Towns <aj@erisian.com.au>

It answers a question anyone new to Bitcoin's P2P protocol has had: "Can I see what messages my node is sending and receiving?". ## Functionality When a new debug-only command line argument `capturemessages` is set, any message that the node receives or sends is captured. The capture occurs in the MessageHandler thread. When receiving a message, it is captured as soon as the MessageHandler thread takes the message off of the vProcessMsg queue. When sending, the message is captured just before the message is pushed onto the vSendMsg queue. The message capture is as minimal as possible to reduce the performance impact on the node. Messages are captured to a new `message_capture` folder in the datadir. Each node has their own subfolder named with their IP address and port. Inside, received and sent messages are captured into two binary files, msgs_recv.dat and msgs_sent.dat, like so: ``` message_capture/203.0.113.7:56072/msgs_recv.dat message_capture/203.0.113.7:56072/msgs_sent.dat ``` Because the messages are raw binary dumps, included in this PR is a Python parsing tool to convert the binary files into human-readable JSON. This script has been placed on its own and out of the way in the new `contrib/message-capture` folder. Its usage is simple and easily discovered by the autogenerated `-h` option. ## Future Maintenance I sympathize greatly with anyone who says "the best code is no code". The future maintenance of this feature will be minimal. The logic to deserialize the payload of the p2p messages exists in our testing framework. As long as our testing framework works, so will this tool. Additionally, I hope that the simplicity of this tool will mean that it gets used frequently, so that problems will be discovered and solved when they are small. ## FAQ "Why not just use Wireshark" Yes, Wireshark has the ability to filter and decode Bitcoin messages. However, the purpose of the message capture added in this PR is to assist with debugging, primarily for new developers looking to improve their knowledge of the Bitcoin Protocol. This drives the design in a different direction than Wireshark, in two different ways. First, this tool must be convenient and simple to use. Using an external tool, like Wireshark, requires setup and interpretation of the results. To a new user who doesn't necessarily know what to expect, this is unnecessary difficulty. This tool, on the other hand, "just works". Turn on the command line flag, run your node, run the script, read the JSON. Second, because this tool is being used for debugging, we want it to be as close to the true behavior of the node as possible. A lot can happen in the SocketHandler thread that would be missed by Wireshark. Additionally, if we are to use Wireshark, we are at the mercy of whoever it maintaining the protocol in Wireshark, both as to it being accurate and recent. As can be seen by the **many** previous attempts to include Bitcoin in Wireshark (google "bitcoin dissector") this is easier said than done. Lastly, I truly believe that this tool will be used significantly more by being included in the codebase. It's just that much more discoverable.

This bundle may _apparently_ introduce usage of `g_chainman` or `::Chain(state|)Active()` globals, but these are resolved later on in the overall PR. [Commits of overall PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20158/commits) 2. There may be seemingly obvious local references to `ChainstateManager` or other validation objects which are not being used in callers of the current function in question, this is done intentionally to **_keep each commit centered around one function/method_** to ease review and to make the overall change systematic. We don't assume anything about our callers. Rest assured that once we are considering that particular caller in later commits, we will use the obvious local references. [Commits of overall PR](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/20158/commits) 3. When changing a function/method that has many callers (e.g. `LookupBlockIndex` with 55 callers), it is sometimes easier (and less error-prone) to use a scripted-diff. When doing so, there will be 3 commits in sequence so that every commit compiles like so: 1. Add `new_function`, make `old_function` a wrapper of `new_function`, divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the local module only** 2. Scripted-diff to divert all calls to `old_function` to `new_function` **in the rest of the codebase** 3. Remove `old_function` ACKs for top commit: jnewbery: utACK 67c9a83df19c6e2a2edb32336879204e7770b4a7 laanwj: re-ACK 67c9a83df19c6e2a2edb32336879204e7770b4a7 ryanofsky: Code review ACK 67c9a83df19c6e2a2edb32336879204e7770b4a7.

2021-01-28validation: Move LoadExternalBlockFile to CChainStateCarl Dong
[META] This commit should be followed up by removing the comments and assertions meant only to show that the change is correct. LoadExternalBlockFile mainly acts on CChainState.
2021-01-28scripted-diff: Use BlockManager::LookupBlockIndexCarl Dong
[META] In a previous commit, we moved ::LookupBlockIndex to become a member function of BlockManager. This commit is split out from that one since it can be expressed nicely as a scripted-diff. -BEGIN VERIFY SCRIPT- find_regex='LookupBlockIndex' \ && git grep -l -E "$find_regex" -- src \ | grep -v '^src/validation\.\(cpp\|h\)$' \ | xargs sed -i -E "s@${find_regex}@g_chainman.m_blockman.LookupBlockIndex@g" -END VERIFY SCRIPT-

These calls are toggled by a debug-only "capturemessages" flag. Default disabled.
2021-01-23Add CaptureMessageTroy Giorshev
This commit adds the CaptureMessage function. This will later be called when any message is sent or received. The capture directory is fixed, in a new folder "message_capture" in the datadir. Peers will then have their own subfolders, named with their IP address and port, replacing colons with underscores to keep compatibility with Windows. Inside, received and sent messages will be captured into two binary files, msgs_recv.dat and msgs_sent.dat. e.g. message_capture/203.0.113.7_56072/msgs_recv.dat message_capture/203.0.113.7_56072/msgs_sent.dat The format has been designed as to result in a minimal performance impact. A parsing script is added in a later commit.
