be01449cc8eb7bb97531a967f5d1dcc7b8865d1e Add test for param interaction b/w -blocksonly and -whitelistforcerelay (glowang)
Pull request description:
Related to: #18428
When -blocksonly is turned on, a node would still relay transactions from whitelisted peers. This funcitonality has not been tested.

6981de4435573ad44ee53fd5efc10894866ed2f9 doc: fix wording of alertnotify (willcl-ark)
Pull request description:
The documentation of the `alertnotify` startup option no longer matches the implementation.
Currently the alert is only triggered by `DoWarning` (as part of `CChainstate::UpdateTip` when blocks containing unknown versionbits are detected on the network, indicating that there may be an upcoming softfork which you don't know about), but not when we see a "really long fork":
2825c41a61/src/validation.cpp (L2418-L2433)
I think it would be desirable in a follow-up PR to implement the logic to alert on a (really) long fork, but not to alert for "partition detection" (abnormally slow/fast blocks). `PartitionChecker` code was removed in ab8be98fdb

bf044ef9ecc93a69619cbaa9fa2b874d5fc06932 build: specify hosts for qrencode package (fanquake)
Pull request description:
Similar to how we specify the OS's we build Qt for, specify which OS's
we will build qrencode for (a qt dependency). This commit alone doesn't
change anything, but when we start supporting other OS's, i.e #23948,
where we wont support qt (or at least initially), it'll skip building
the qrencode package, which would be unused.
I'll rebase the other *BSD changes on top of this.

ec4c6a17e82a6726d95075b43ebd2525c50b37cd scripted-diff: replace MAX_BLOCKS_ONLY_CONNECTIONS with MAX_BLOCK_RELAY_ONLY_CONNECTIONS (glowang)
Pull request description:
We have two different concepts that have similar names: `-blocksonly` and `block-relay-only`, and the similarity of names could lead to confusion. `-blocksonly` disables all local receiving & relaying of transactions (with a few exceptions), while `block-relay-only`means that bitcoind will make 2 additional outbound connections that are only used for block relay.
In net.h and init.cpp, `MAX_BLOCKS_ONLY_CONNECTIONS` is used to represent the maximum number of `block-relay-only` outbound peers, which is 2. But this name sounds ambiguous, and I proposed a better name, `MAX_BLOCK_RELAY_ONLY_CONNECTION`.

This adds a descriptors argument to the `utxoupdatepsbt` RPC. This means:
* Input and output scripts and keys will be filled in when known.
* P2SH-witness inputs will be filled in from the UTXO set when a descriptor is provided that shows they're spending segwit outputs.
This also moves some (newly) shared code to separate functions: `UpdatePSBTOutput` (an analogue to `SignPSBTInput`), `IsSegWitOutput`, and `EvalDescriptorStringOrObject` (implementing the string or object notation parsing used in `scantxoutset`).

* Remove unused variable
* [refactor] Move tx relay state to separate structure
* [refactor] Change tx_relay structure to be unique_ptr
* Check that tx_relay is initialized before access
* Add comment explaining intended use of m_tx_relay
* Add 2 outbound block-relay-only connections
Transaction relay is primarily optimized for balancing redundancy/robustness
with bandwidth minimization -- as a result transaction relay leaks information
that adversaries can use to infer the network topology.
Network topology is better kept private for (at least) two reasons:
(a) Knowledge of the network graph can make it easier to find the source IP of
a given transaction.
(b) Knowledge of the network graph could be used to split a target node or
nodes from the honest network (eg by knowing which peers to attack in order to
achieve a network split).
We can eliminate the risks of (b) by separating block relay from transaction
relay; inferring network connectivity from the relay of blocks/block headers is
much more expensive for an adversary.
After this commit, bitcoind will make 2 additional outbound connections that
are only used for block relay. (In the future, we might consider rotating our
transaction-relay peers to help limit the effects of (a).)
* Don't relay addr messages to block-relay-only peers
We don't want relay of addr messages to leak information about
these network links.
* doc: improve comments relating to block-relay-only peers
* Disconnect peers violating blocks-only mode
If we set fRelay=false in our VERSION message, and a peer sends an INV or TX
message anyway, disconnect. Since we use fRelay=false to minimize bandwidth,
we should not tolerate remaining connected to a peer violating the protocol.
* net_processing. Removed comment + fixed formatting
* Refactoring net_processing, removed duplicated code
* Refactor some bool in a many-arguments function to enum
It's made to avoid possible typos with arguments, because some of them have default values and it's very high probability to make a mistake here.
* Added UI debug option for Outbound
* Fixed data race related to `setInventoryTxToSend`, introduced in `[refactor] Move tx relay state to separate structure`

e9189a750b237eba1befc6b16c12c2cee3e0176c build: more robustly check for fcf-protection support (fanquake)
Pull request description:
When using Clang 7, we may end up trying to use the flag when it won't
work properly, which can lead to confusing errors. i.e:
```bash
/usr/bin/ld: error: ... <corrupt x86 feature size: 0x8>
```
Use `AX_CHECK_LINK_FLAG` & `--fatal-warnings` to ensure we wont use the flag in this case.
We do this as even when the error is emitted, compilation succeeds, and the binaries produced will run. This means we can't just check if the compiler accepts the flag, or if compilation succeeds (without or without `-Werror`, and/or passing `-Wl,--fatal-warnings`, which may not be passed through to the linker).
This was reported by someone configuring for fuzzing, on Debian 10, where Clang 7 is the default.
See here for a minimal example of the problematic behaviour:

076183b36b76a11438463883ff916f17aef9e001 build: add -fcf-protection=full to hardening options (fanquake)
Pull request description:
Beginning with Ubuntu `19.10`, it's packaged GCC now has some additional hardening options enabled by default (in addition to existing defaults like `-fstack-protector-strong` and reducing the minimum ssp buffer size). The new additions are`-fcf-protection=full` and `-fstack-clash-protection`.
> -fcf-protection=[full|branch|return|none]
> Enable code instrumentation of control-flow transfers to increase program security by checking that target addresses of control-flow transfer instructions (such as indirect function call, function return, indirect jump) are valid. This prevents diverting the flow of control to an unexpected target. This is intended to protect against such threats as Return-oriented Programming (ROP), and similarly call/jmp-oriented programming (COP/JOP).
> -fstack-clash-protection
> Generate code to prevent stack clash style attacks. When this option is enabled, the compiler will only allocate one page of stack space at a time and each page is accessed immediately after allocation. Thus, it prevents allocations from jumping over any stack guard page provided by the operating system.
If your interested you can grab `gcc-9_9.3.0-10ubuntu2.debian.tar.xz` from https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/g++-9. The relevant changes are part of the `gcc-distro-specs` patches, along with the relevant additions to the gcc manages:
> NOTE: In Ubuntu 19.10 and later versions, -fcf-protection is enabled by default for C, C++, ObjC, ObjC++, if none of -fno-cf-protection nor -fcf-protection=* are found.
> NOTE: In Ubuntu 19.10 and later versions, -fstack-clash-protection is enabled by default for C, C++, ObjC, ObjC++, unless -fno-stack-clash-protection is found.
So, if you're C++ using GCC on Ubuntu 19.10 or later, these options will be active unless you explicitly opt out. This can be observed with a small test:
```c++
int main() { return 0; }
```

Note the insertion of an `endbr64` instruction when compiling and _not_ opting out. This instruction is part of the Intel Control-flow Enforcement Technology [spec](https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/4d/2a/control-flow-enforcement-technology-preview.pdf), which the GCC control flow implementation is based on.
If we're still doing gitian builds for the `0.21.0` and `0.22.0` releases, we'd likely update the gitian image to Ubuntu Focal, which would mean that the GCC used for gitian builds would also be using these options by default. So we should decide whether we want to explicitly turn these options on as part of our hardening options (although not just for this reason), or, we should be opting-out.
GCC has supported both options since 8.0.0. Clang has supported `-fcf-protection` from 7.0.0 and will support `-fstack-clash-protection` in it's upcoming [11.0.0 release](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ReleaseNotes.html#id6).

8578c6fccd11404412d2c60f9bede311b79ca0d0 build: Fix search for brew-installed BDB 4 on OS X (Glenn Willen)
Pull request description:
~~NOTE: This PR contains one important fix that I need (to make Bitcoin Core build cleanly on my system without shenanigans), plus some related general cleanup that is not really necessary, and could be annoying. (I am prepared to defend my argument that BDB_CFLAGS is wrong here, and BDB_CPPFLAGS is right, but this could bite anybody who has gotten in the habit of -- or scripted -- setting the former.)~~
Ok, I have been convinced that I was too clever with the refactor and I have removed it. Now it's just the tiny change to fix the build on my local machine.
---
On OS X, when searching Homebrew keg-only packages for BDB 4.8, if we find it,
use BDB_CPPFLAGS and BDB_LIBS instead of CFLAGS and LIBS for the result. This
is (1) more correct, and (2) necessary in order to give this location
priority over other directories in the include search path, which may include
system include directories with other versions of BDB.

3e38023af724a76972d39cbccfb0bba4c54a0323 scripts: add PE .reloc section check to security-check.py (fanquake)
Pull request description:
The `ld` in binutils has historically had a few issues with PE binaries, there's a good summary in this [thread](https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19011).
One issue in particular was `ld` stripping the `.reloc` section out of PE binaries, even though it's required for functioning ASLR. This was [reported by a Tor developer in 2014](https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17321) and they have been patching their [own binutils](https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-build.git/tree/projects/binutils) ever since. However their patch only made it into binutils at the [start of this year](https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=commit;h=dc9bd8c92af67947db44b3cb428c050259b15cd0). It adds an `--enable-reloc-section` flag, which is turned on by default if you are using `--dynamic-base`. In the mean time this issue has also been worked around by other projects, such as FFmpeg, see [this commit](91b668acd6).
I have checked our recent supported Windows release binaries, and they do contain a `.reloc` section. From what I understand, we are using all the right compile/linker flags, including `-pie` & `-fPIE`, and have never run into the crashing/entrypoint issues that other projects might have seen.
One other thing worth noting here, it how Debian/Ubuntu patch the binutils that they distribute, because that's what we end up using in our gitian builds.
In the binutils-mingw-w64 in Bionic (18.04), which we currently use in gitian, PE hardening options/security flags are enabled by default. See the [changelog](https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/b/binutils-mingw-w64/binutils-mingw-w64_8ubuntu1/changelog) and the [relevant commit](452b3013b8).
However in Focal (20.04), this has now been reversed. PE hardening options are no-longer the default. See the [changelog](https://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/b/binutils-mingw-w64/binutils-mingw-w64_8.8/changelog) and [relevant commit](7bd8b2fbc2), which cites same .reloc issue mentioned here.
Given that we explicitly specify/opt-in to everything that we want to use, the defaults aren't necessarily an issue for us. However I think it highlights the importance of continuing to be explicit about what we want, and not falling-back or relying on upstream.
This was also prompted by the possibility of us doing link time garbage collection, see #18579 & #18605. It seemed some sanity checks would be worthwhile in-case the linker goes haywire while garbage collecting.
I think Guix is going to bring great benefits when dealing with these kinds of issues. Carl you might have something to say in that regard.

Pull request description:
7b99c7454cdb74cd9cd7a5eedc2fb9d0a19df456 uses `otool -Iv` to check for `___stack_chk_fail` in the macOS binaries. Similar to the [ELF check](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/contrib/devtools/security-check.py#L105). Note that looking for a triple underscore prefixed function (as opposed to two for ELF) is correct for the macOS binaries. i.e:
```bash
otool -Iv bitcoind | grep chk
0x00000001006715b8 509 ___memcpy_chk
0x00000001006715be 510 ___snprintf_chk
0x00000001006715c4 511 ___sprintf_chk
0x00000001006715ca 512 ___stack_chk_fail
0x00000001006715d6 517 ___vsnprintf_chk

```
8334ee31f868f0f9baf0920d14d20174ed889dbe is a follow up to #18295 and adds test cases to `test-security-check.py` that for some reason I didn't add at the time. I'll sort out #18434 so that we can run these tests in the CI.
