eac64bb7a [qa] Test nMinimumChainWork (Suhas Daftuar) 0311836f6 Allow setting nMinimumChainWork on command line (Suhas Daftuar) Pull request description: As discussed briefly here: https://botbot.me/freenode/bitcoin-core-dev/2017-02-28/?msg=81712308&page=4 This adds a hidden command line option for setting `nMinimumChainWork`, which allows us to test this parameter in our functional tests, as well as allowing for niche use cases like syncing nodes that are otherwise disconnected from the network. See also #10345, which proposes a new use of `nMinimumChainWork`.

"""Test logic for setting nMinimumChainWork on command line.
|
|
|
|
Nodes don't consider themselves out of "initial block download" until
|
|
their active chain has more work than nMinimumChainWork.
|
|
|
|
Nodes don't download blocks from a peer unless the peer's best known block
|
|
has more work than nMinimumChainWork.
|
|
|
|
While in initial block download, nodes won't relay blocks to their peers, so
|
|
test that this parameter functions as intended by verifying that block relay
|
|
only succeeds past a given node once its nMinimumChainWork has been exceeded.
