Merge #12206: qa: Sync with validationinterface queue in sync_mempools
fa1e69e qa: Sync with validationinterface queue in sync_mempools (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  Commit e545dedf72 moved `TransactionAddedToMempool` to the background scheduler thread. Thus, adding a transaction to the mempool will no longer add it to the wallet immediately. Functional tests, that `sync_mempools` and then call into wallet rpcs will race against the scheduler thread.

  Fix that race by flushing the scheduler queue.

  Fixes #12205; Fixes #12171;
  References #9584;

ef2beb2c13 Fix flake8 warnings in p2p-versionbits-warning.py (John Newbery)

Pull request description:

  fixes #12259 (and tidies up the test)

  The problem was that the node was still in IBD at the point the last block was generated. UpdateTip() will not generate a warning if the node is still in IBD:

  cc5870a405/src/validation.cpp (L2151)

  The 'proper' fix would be to remove the overenthusiastic latching in DoWarning:

  cc5870a405/src/validation.cpp (L2135)

  so that more than one warning message can be output to `alertnotify`. Really we should suppress multiple messages of the same type, but allow messages to be output if they're for different warnings. That would mean the test wouldn't need to stop-start the node.

08e0855b9 Give hint about gitian not able to download (kallewoof)

Pull request description:

  Gitian fails to perform downloads right now on my set up. This can be circumvented by first checking out the tag being built and then doing the depends download step before running `gbuild`.

  This should of course be fixed in gitian, but having this note until it's fixed is definitely useful.

Pull request description:

  E.g. before you push three commits to Github and upset Travis, check if you didn't make any whitespace mistakes:
  ```sh
  contrib/devtools/lint-whitespace.sh 3

  This is slightly more convenient than doing:
  ```sh

Pull request description:

  MacOS does not support `grep -P` out of the box. This change makes
  it easier for developers to check for whitespace problems locally.

  Based on [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/16658690) and [this](https://serverfault.com/a/504387) Stack Exchange answer.

  Tested with:
  ```sh
  export TRAVIS_COMMIT_RANGE='fe78c9a...62e0453'
  contrib/devtools/lint-whitespace.sh
  This diff appears to have added new lines with tab characters instead of spaces.

526e28220a contrib: Add support for out-of-tree builds in gen-manpages.sh (Wladimir J. van der Laan)

Pull request description:

  This adds support for setting the environment variable `BUILDDIR` to point to executables that are outside the source directory.

  E.g. to invoke the tool when the build is in $PWD/build:

  ```bash
  BUILDDIR=$PWD/build contrib/devtools/gen-manpages.sh
  ```

  This avoids having to manually copy the generated manpages after they end up in the build instead of source path, when setting TOPDIR instead.

Merge #10271: Use std:🧵:hardware_concurrency, instead of Boost, to determine available cores
937bf4335 Use std:🧵:hardware_concurrency, instead of Boost, to determine available cores (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  Following discussion on IRC about replacing Boost usage for detecting available system cores, I've opened this to collect some benchmarks + further discussion.

  The current method for detecting available cores was introduced in #6361.

  Recap of the IRC chat:
  ```
  21:14:08 fanquake: Since we seem to be giving Boost removal a good shot for 0.15, does anyone have suggestions for replacing GetNumCores?
  21:14:26 fanquake: There is std:🧵:hardware_concurrency(), but that seems to count virtual cores, which I don't think we want.
  21:14:51 BlueMatt: fanquake: I doubt we'll do boost removal for 0.15
  21:14:58 BlueMatt: shit like BOOST_FOREACH, sure
  21:15:07 BlueMatt: but all of boost? doubtful, there are still things we need
  21:16:36 fanquake: Yea sorry, not the whole lot, but we can remove a decent chunk. Just looking into what else needs to be done to replace some of the less involved Boost usage.
  21:16:43 BlueMatt: fair
  21:17:14 wumpus: yes, it makes sense to plan ahead a bit, without immediately doing it
  21:18:12 wumpus: right, don't count virtual cores, that used to be the case but it makes no sense for our usage
  21:19:15 wumpus: it'd create a swarm of threads overwhelming any machine with hyperthreading (+accompanying thread stack overhead), for script validation, and there was no gain at all for that
  21:20:03 sipa: BlueMatt: don't worry, there is no hurry
  21:59:10 morcos: wumpus: i don't think that is correct
  21:59:24 morcos: suppose you have 4 cores (8 virtual cores)
  21:59:24 wumpus: fanquake: indeed seems that std has no equivalent to physical_concurrency, on any standard. That's annoying as it is non-trivial to implement
  21:59:35 morcos: i think running par=8 (if it let you) would be notably faster
  21:59:59 morcos: jeremyrubin and i discussed this at length a while back... i think i commented about it on irc at the time
  22:00:21 wumpus: morcos: I think the conclusion at the time was that it made no difference, but sure would make sense to benchmark
  22:00:39 morcos: perhaps historical testing on the virtual vs actual cores was polluted by concurrency issues that have now improved
  22:00:47 wumpus: I think there are not more ALUs, so there is not really a point in having more threads
  22:01:40 wumpus: hyperthreads are basically just a stored register state right?
  22:02:23 sipa: wumpus: yes but it helps the scheduler
  22:02:27 wumpus: in which case the only speedup using "number of cores" threads would give you is, possibly, excluding other software from running on the cores on the same time
  22:02:37 morcos: well this is where i get out of my depth
  22:02:50 sipa: if one of the threads is waiting on a read from ram, the other can use the arithmetic unit for example
  22:02:54 morcos: wumpus: i'm pretty sure though that the speed up is considerably more than what you might expect from that
  22:02:59 wumpus: sipa: ok, I back down, I didn't want to argue this at all
  22:03:35 morcos: the reason i haven't tested it myself, is the machine i usually use has 16 cores... so not easy due to remaining concurrency issues to get much more speedup
  22:03:36 wumpus: I'm fine with restoring it to number of virtual threads if that's faster
  22:03:54 morcos: we should have somene with 4 cores (and  actually test it though, i agree
  22:03:58 sipa: i would expect (but we should benchmark...) that if 8 scriot validation threads instead of 4 on a quadcore hyperthreading is not faster, it's due to lock contention
  22:04:20 morcos: sipa: yeah thats my point, i think lock contention isn't that bad with 8 now
  22:04:22 wumpus: on 64-bit systems the additional thread overhead wouldn't be important at least
  22:04:23 gmaxwell: I previously benchmarked, a long time ago, it was faster.
  22:04:33 gmaxwell: (to use the HT core count)
  22:04:44 wumpus: why was this changed at all then?
  22:04:47 wumpus: I'm confused
  22:05:04 sipa: good question!
  22:05:06 gmaxwell: I had no idea we changed it.
  22:05:25 wumpus: sigh 
  22:05:54 gmaxwell: What PR changed it?
  22:06:51 gmaxwell: In any case, on 32-bit it's probably a good tradeoff... the extra ram overhead is worth avoiding.
  22:07:22 wumpus: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6361
  22:07:28 gmaxwell: PR 6461 btw.
  22:07:37 gmaxwell: er lol at least you got it right.
  22:07:45 wumpus: the complaint was that systems became unsuably slow when using that many thread
  22:07:51 wumpus: so at least I got one thing right, woohoo
  22:07:55 sipa: seems i even acked it!
  22:07:57 BlueMatt: wumpus: there are more alus
  22:08:38 BlueMatt: but we need to improve lock contention first
  22:08:40 morcos: anywya, i think in the past the lock contention made 8 threads regardless of cores a bit dicey.. now that is much better (although more still to be done)
  22:09:01 BlueMatt: or we can just merge #10192, thats fee
  22:09:04 gribble: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/10192 | Cache full script execution results in addition to signatures by TheBlueMatt · Pull Request #10192 · bitcoin/bitcoin · GitHub
  22:09:11 BlueMatt: s/fee/free/
  22:09:21 morcos: no, we do not need to improve lock contention first.   but we should probably do that before we increase the max beyond 16
  22:09:26 BlueMatt: then we can toss concurrency issues out the window and get more speedup anyway
  22:09:35 gmaxwell: wumpus: yea, well in QT I thought we also diminished the count by 1 or something?  but yes, if the motivation was to reduce how heavily the machine was used, thats fair.
  22:09:56 sipa: the benefit of using HT cores is certainly not a factor 2
  22:09:58 wumpus: gmaxwell: for the default I think this makes a lot of sense, yes
  22:10:10 gmaxwell: morcos: right now on my 24/28 physical core hosts going beyond 16 still reduces performance.
  22:10:11 wumpus: gmaxwell: do we also restrict the maximum par using this? that'd make less sense
  22:10:51 wumpus: if someone *wants* to use the virtual cores they should be able to by setting -par=
  22:10:51 sipa: *flies to US*
  22:10:52 BlueMatt: sipa: sure, but the shared cache helps us get more out of it than some others, as morcos points out
  22:11:30 BlueMatt: (because it means our thread contention issues are less)
  22:12:05 morcos: gmaxwell: yeah i've been bogged down in fee estimation as well (and the rest of life) for a while now.. otherwise i would have put more effort into jeremy's checkqueue
  22:12:36 BlueMatt: morcos: heh, well now you can do other stuff while the rest of us get bogged down in understanding fee estimation enough to review it 
  22:12:37 wumpus: [to answer my own question: no, the limit for par is MAX_SCRIPTCHECK_THREADS, or 16]
  22:12:54 morcos: but to me optimizing for more than 16 cores is pretty valuable as miners could use beefy machines and be less concerned by block validation time
  22:14:38 BlueMatt: morcos: i think you may be surprised by the number of mining pools that are on VPSes that do not have 16 cores 
  22:15:34 gmaxwell: I assume right now most of the time block validation is bogged in the parts that are not as concurrent. simple because caching makes the concurrent parts so fast. (and soon to hopefully increase with bluematt's patch)
  22:17:55 gmaxwell: improving sha2 speed, or transaction malloc overhead are probably bigger wins now for connection at the tip than parallelism beyond 16 (though I'd like that too).
  22:18:21 BlueMatt: sha2 speed is big
  22:18:27 morcos: yeah lots of things to do actually...
  22:18:57 gmaxwell: BlueMatt: might be a tiny bit less big if we didn't hash the block header 8 times for every block. 
  22:21:27 BlueMatt: ehh, probably, but I'm less rushed there
  22:21:43 BlueMatt: my new cache thing is about to add a bunch of hashing
  22:21:50 BlueMatt: 1 sha round per tx
  22:22:25 BlueMatt: and sigcache is obviously a ton
  ```

Merge #12604: Add DynamicMemoryUsage() to CDBWrapper to estimate LevelDB memory use
741f0177c Add DynamicMemoryUsage() to LevelDB (Evan Klitzke)

Pull request description:

  This adds a new method `CDBWrapper::DynamicMemoryUsage()` similar to Bitcoin's existing methods of the same name. It's implemented by asking LevelDB for the information, and then parsing the string response. I've also added logging to `CDBWrapper::WriteBatch()` to track this information:

  ```
  $ tail -f ~/.bitcoin/testnet3/debug.log | grep WriteBatch
  2018-03-05 19:34:55 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB

  2018-03-05 19:35:52 WriteBatch memory usage: db=index, before=0.0MiB, after=0.0MiB
  2018-03-05 19:35:52 WriteBatch memory usage: db=chainstate, before=7.0MiB, after=9.0MiB
  ^C
  ```

  As LevelDB doesn't seem to provide a way to get the database name, I've also added a new `m_name` field to the `CDBWrapper`. This is necessary because we have multiple LevelDB databases (two now, and possibly more later, e.g. #11857).

  I am using this information in other branches where I'm experimenting with changing LevelDB buffer sizes.

Pull request description:

  Before this change QT just remained on the Send tab, which I found confusing. Now it switches to the Transactions tab. This makes it more clear to the user that the send actually succeeded, and here they can monitor progress.

  Ideally I would like to highlight the transaction, e.g. by refactoring `TransactionView::focusTransaction(const QModelIndex &idx)` to accept a transaction hash, but I'm not sure how to do that.
