dd435ad Add unit tests for signals generated by ProcessNewBlock() (Jesse Cohen) a3ae8e6 Fix concurrency-related bugs in ActivateBestChain (Jesse Cohen) ecc3c4a Do not unlock cs_main in ABC unless we've actually made progress. (Matt Corallo) Pull request description: Originally this PR was just to add tests around concurrency in block validation - those tests seem to have uncovered another bug in ActivateBestChain - this now fixes that bug and adds tests. ActivateBestChain (invoked after a new block is validated) proceeds in steps - acquiring and releasing cs_main while incrementally disconnecting and connecting blocks to sync to the most work chain known (FindMostWorkChain()). Every time cs_main is released the result of FindMostWorkChain() can change - but currently that value is cached across acquisitions of cs_main and only refreshed when an invalid chain is explored. It needs to be refreshed every time cs_main is reacquired. The test added in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13023/commits/6094ce73045fe0b4654ff94327c2059512af88fb will occasionally fail without the commit fixing this issue https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/13023/commits/26bfdbaddbb9f13864deb7241c6d513f22c5ab62 Original description below -- After a bug discovered where UpdatedBlockTip() notifications could be triggered out of order (#12978), these unit tests check certain invariants about these signals. The scheduler test asserts that a SingleThreadedSchedulerClient processes callbacks fully and sequentially. The block validation test generates a random chain and calls ProcessNewBlock from multiple threads at random and in parallel. ValidationInterface callbacks verify that the ordering of BlockConnected BlockDisconnected and UpdatedBlockTip events occur as expected.

If multiple threads are invoking ActivateBestChain, it was possible to have them working towards different tips, and we could arrive at a less work tip than we should.

Technically, some internal datastructures may be in an inconsistent state if we do this, though there are no known bugs there. Still, for future safety, its much better to only unlock cs_main if we've made progress (not just tried a reorg which may make progress).

Introduced in 4e0eed88acdd41826868c151373068bfad18b84d When an invalid block is found during a reorg, we know the last of the blocks in the was-to-be-connected chain is invalid, but not necessarily the first. As vpIndexToConnect is ordered in decreasing height, the end of the reorg is the front of the vector, and not the back. This only affected the warning system.

2018-04-27Simplify semantics of ChainStateFlushed callbackMatt Corallo
Previously, ChainStateFlushed would fire either if a full flush completed (which can happen due to memory limits, forced flush, or on its own DATABASE_WRITE_INTERVAL timer) *or* on a ChainStateFlushed-specific DATABASE_WRITE_INTERVAL timer. This is both less clear for clients (as there are no guarantees about a flush having actually happened prior to the call), and reults in extra flushes not clearly intended by the code. We drop the second case, providing a strong guarantee without removing the periodit timer-based flushing.

2018-04-23Add logging and error handling for file syncingWladimir J. van der Laan
Add logging and error handling inside, and outside of FileCommit. Functions such as fsync, fdatasync will return error in case of hardware I/O errors, and ignoring this means it can silently continue through data corruption. (c.f. https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/752063/12b232ab5039efbe/)

The P2SH change is pretty straightforward -- there was only one historical block on mainnet that violated the rule, so I carved out an exception to it, similar to the way we have exceptions for the BIP30 violators. The segwit change is not entirely as clear. The code changes themselves are relatively straightforward: we can just always turn on SCRIPT_VERIFY_WITNESS whenever P2SH is active. However conceptually, this amounts to splitting up BIP141 into two parts, the part that implements new script rules, and the part that handles witness commitments in blocks. Arguably though the script rules are really defined in BIP 143 anyway, and so this really amounts to backdating BIP 143 -- script rules for v0 segwit outputs -- back to genesis. So maybe conceptually this isn't so bad... I don't feel strongly about this change in either direction; I started working on it because I was searching for a way to simplify the way we understand and implement the consensus rules around segwit, but I'm not yet sure whether I think this achieves anything toward that goal. ping @TheBlueMatt Tree-SHA512: 73551d4a983eb9792c7ac67f56005822528ac4d1fd52c27cee6d305ebee953f69687ef4ddee8bdc0fec77f77e6b5a9d669750793efee54c076533a095e233042

Seems providing at least minimal visibility to the failure is a good practice. The only remaining ignored state is in LoadExternalBlockFile, where logging would likely be spammy.
