2014-11-20Check block header before accepting it.Daniel Kraft
Previously, AcceptBlockHeader did not check the header (in particular PoW). This made the client accept invalid-PoW-headers from peers in headers-first sync.

845c86d Do not use third party services for IP detection. (Gregory Maxwell)
2014-11-07Do 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.

2014-10-14Fix rebuild-chainstate feature and improve its performancePieter Wuille
Previous refactorings broke the ability to rebuild the chainstate by deleting the chainstate directory, resulting in an incorrect "Incorrect or no genesis block found" error message. Fix that. Also, improve the performance of ActivateBestBlockStep by using the skiplist to only discover a few potential blocks to connect at a time, instead of all blocks forever - as we likely bail out after connecting a single one anyway.
2014-10-14Skip reindexed blocks individuallyPieter Wuille
Instead of skipping to the last reindexed block in each file (which could jump over processed out-of-order blocks), just skip each already processed block individually.
2014-10-14Make -reindex cope with out-of-order blocksWladimir J. van der Laan
Remember out-of-order block headers along with disk positions. This is likely the simplest and least-impact way to make -reindex work with headers first. Based on top of #4468.

2014-10-14Headers-first synchronizationPieter Wuille
Many changes: * Do not use 'getblocks', but 'getheaders', and use it to build a headers tree. * Blocks are fetched in parallel from all available outbound peers, using a limited moving window. When one peer stalls the movement of the window, it is disconnected. * No more orphan blocks. At all. We only ever request a block for which we have verified the headers, and store it to disk immediately. This means that a disk-fill attack would require PoW. * Require protocol version 31800 for every peer (released in december 2010). * No more syncnode (we sync from everyone we can, though limited to 1 during initial *headers* sync). * Introduce some extra named constants, comments and asserts.

dbca89b Trigger -alertnotify if network is upgrading without you (Gavin Andresen) e01a793 Refactor -alertnotify code (Gavin Andresen) Signed-off-by: Gavin Andresen <gavinandresen@gmail.com>
2014-10-09Trigger -alertnotify if network is upgrading without youGavin Andresen
This adds a -regetest-only undocumented (for regression testing only) command-line option -blockversion=N to set block.nVersion. Adds to the "has the rest of the network upgraded to a block.nVersion we don't understand" code so it calls -alertnotify when 51 of the last 100 blocks are up-version. But it only alerts once, not with every subsequent new, upversion block. And adds a forknotify.py regression test to make sure it works. Tested using forknotify.py: Before adding CAlert::Notify, get: Assertion failed: -alertnotify did not warn of up-version blocks Before adding code to only alert once: Assertion failed: -alertnotify excessive warning of up-version blocks After final code in this pull: Tests successful
2014-10-09Refactor -alertnotify codeGavin Andresen
Refactor common -alertnotify code into static CAlert::Notify method.

There is only one message passed to AbortNode() that makes sense to translate to the user specifically: Disk space is low. For the others show a generic message and refer to debug.log for details. Reduces the number of confusing jargon translation messages.
