55a1db4 Solve chainActive-related locking issues (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
e07c943 Add AssertLockHeld for cs_main to ChainActive-using functions (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Because this class replaces some usages of CBigNum, tests have been added to
verify that they function the same way. The only difference in their usage is
the handling of out-of-range numbers.
While operands are constrained to [-0x7FFFFFFF,0x7FFFFFFF], the results may
overflow. The overflowing result is technically unbounded, but in practice
it can be no bigger than the result of an operation on two operands. This
implementation limits them to the size of an int64.
CBigNum was unaware of this constraint, so it allowed for unbounded results,
which were then checked before use. CScriptNum asserts if an arithmetic
operation will overflow an int64_t, since scripts are not able to reach those
numbers anyway. Additionally, CScriptNum will throw an exception when
constructed from a vector containing more than 4 bytes This mimics the previous
CastToBigNum behavior.
- In wallet and GUI code LOCK cs_main as well as cs_wallet when
necessary
- In main.cpp SendMessages move the TRY_LOCK(cs_main) up, to encompass the call
to IsInitialBlockDownload.
- Make ActivateBestChain, AddToBlockIndex, IsInitialBlockDownload,
InitBlockIndex acquire the cs_main lock
Fixes#3997
All functions that use ChainActive but do not aquire the cs_main
lock themselves, need to be called with the cs_main lock held.
This commit adds assertions to all externally callable functions
that use chainActive or chainMostWork.
This will flag usages when built with -DDEBUG_LOCKORDER.
Drawback: The version string is no longer a valid git identifier.
For this reason the 'g' short hash prefix has been removed.
Exception: When building directly from a tag this behaves exactly like the previous behavior.
This allows formatting release versions with precision i.e. v0.9.2
This also allows arbitrary topicbranch names i.e. v0.9.1-glibc-compat
- prevents unsafe shutdowns on Windows, which is known to be
able to cause problems with wallet.dat
- if a users ends a Windows session, this will initiate a client shutdown
and show a Windows dialog, that tells the user what is going on (for
Windows Vista and higher it will even show a reason for blocking the
Windows session end)
glibc/libstdc++ have added new symbols in later releases. When running a new
binary against an older glibc, the run-time linker is unable to resolve the
new symbols and the binary refuses to run.
This can be fixed by adding our own versions of those functions, so that the
build-time linker does not emit undefined symbols for them.
This enables our binary releases to work on older Linux distros, while not
incurring the downsides of a fully static binary.
When we are over our outbound limit ThreadSocketHandler would try to
keep the connection if the peer was addnoded.
This didn't actually work for two reasons: It didn't actually run
the accept code due to mistaken code flow, and because we have a
limited number of outbound semaphores it couldn't actually use the
connection.
Instead it leaked the socket, which might have caused issue #4034.
This patch just takes out the non-functioning white-listing for now.

Use sensible categories (overall control, P2P, blockchain/UTXO and
mining, wallet, wallet-enabled mining) and sort within each.
Also remove unnecessary #ifdef ENABLE_WALLET from `rpcnet.cpp`.
Functionality-neutral change.
PrintBlockTree output was broken starting from e010af70.
Everything appears on one line.
PrintWallet() added the newline after a block, but this functionality
was removed and no newline was added.
Seemingly, no one noticed. Add a newline after the block information
to fix this.
- introduce DEFAULT_SCRIPTCHECK_THREADS in main.h
- only show values from -"MAX_HW_THREADS" up to 16 for -par, as it
makes no sense to try to leave more "cores free" than the system
supports anyway
- use the new constant in optionsdialog and remove defaults from
.ui file
Building the tests was giving some vague error message about a doubly-defined
symbol.
The solution is to define ShutdownRequested in test_bitcoin.cpp as well
so that init.cpp does not get pulled in.
Taught bitcoind to close the HTTP connection after it gets a 'stop' command,
to make it easier for the regression tests to cleanly stop.
Move bitcoinrpc files to correct location.
Tidied up the python-based regression tests.
This commit removes completely the src/.gitignore file, given that the
precedent for ignoring artifacts within the `src` directory is to
add entries for them to the root .gitignore file.
Note also that the lone entry in src/.gitignore is stale anyway. As of
the switch to Autotools in 35b8af9, the build no longer build creates
artifacts in `src/test_bitcoin`. They are now written to
`src/test/test_bitcoin`, and this latter path is already ignored in the
root .gitignore file.
Re-submitting this pull request with a single commit.
This patch introduces a GUIUtil class that is used when setting up the 2 tables we have so far on the Qt-GUI.
In the past you could only resize the last column, which has BTC amounts from the right border of the column header, something that was rather unnatural.
If a new table were ever to be added to the interface, fixing the last columns resizing behavior is rather simple. Just look at how we initialize here a TableViewLastColumnResizingFixer object when setting up the table header's behavior, and then how we override the resize event of the component (can be the table, or the dialog) and we invoke columnResizingFixer->stretchColumnWidth(columnIndex);
Autotools defaults to a depth-first recursion which causes the qt tests
to be built before the executables and libraries.
This is inconvenient as make needs to be called twice to make sure the
tests are up to date after changing a source file.
Update the Makefile.am to change this order.
- Add license headers to source files (years based on commit dates)
in `src/test` as well as `qa`
- Add `README.md` to `src/test/data` specifying MIT license
Fixes#3848
Currently only the name of the option is shown for GUI options
overridden by command line (or configuration file). This commit
adds the value of the options as well, which is useful for
troubleshooting.
This shows the minimum relay fee for non-free transactions in btc/kb.
The armory developers requested this so that they can prevent users from
creating transactions that not even their local bitcoind will relay.
This also slightly reorders the getinfo output so that the fee related
lines are grouped and changes the help text to reflect that the units
are btc/kb.
Changes for the datadir chooser have made it impossible to specify
the network (testnet/regtest) in the configuration file for the GUI.
Reorganize the initialization sequence to make this possible again.
- Moves the "datadir" QSetting so that is no longer dependent on the
network-specific application name (doing otherwise would create a
chicken-and-egg problem).
- Re-initialize translations after choosing network. There may be a
different language configured in network-specific settings
(slim chance, but handle it for sanity).
Fixes point 1 of #3840.
a81cd968 introduced a malleability breaker for signatures
(using an even value for S). In e0e14e43 this was changed to
the lower of two potential values, rather than the even one.
Only the signing code was changed though, the (for now unused)
verification code wasn't adapted.
This resolves a case in which a mismatch could be used to bloat up the
mempool by sending transactions that pay enough fee to relay, but not
to be mined, with the default policies.
Last Transifex pull (064a690) introduced a few control characters
into the Korean translation, which sometimes causes the build to fail.
Manually remove these characters for now to get the build working --
they should still be removed at Transifex too.
Now that AddToWallet is called when loading transactions from the
wallet database, BindWallet can be integrated into that and does not
need to be an extra step.
Leaves behaviour unchanged, but makes the
fFromLoadWallet/!fFromLoadWallet paths in AddToWallet a bit more
symmetric.
After the Qt5 switch, status icons were being cut off by 1-2px.
Also fixes some other cases where the UI is slightly off mentioned in #3800.
Fixes#3800.
When bitcoind can't bind, bitcoin server (or Bitcoin Core Daemon) is probably already running. Add the missing word "server". Bitcoin itself is definitely running ;-)
Add _(...) so the string can be localized.
I apologize for such trivial changes, learning github interface.
