e2bab2aa162ae38b2bf8195b577c982402fbee9d multiprocess: add multiprocess travis configuration (Russell Yanofsky) 603fd6a2e708c04ef6c9880f89d0a4cbaa6fc7c5 depends: add MULTIPROCESS depends option (Russell Yanofsky) 5d1377b52bfcd4edf8553aaf332bfeb92fc554cc build: multiprocess autotools changes (Russell Yanofsky) Pull request description: This PR is part of the [process separation project](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/projects/10). --- This PR consists of build changes only. It adds an `--enable-multiprocess` autoconf option (off by default and marked experimental), that builds new `bitcoin-node` and `bitcoin-gui` binaries. These currently function the same as existing `bitcoind` and `bitcoin-qt` binaries, but are extended in #10102 with IPC features to execute node, wallet, and gui functions in separate processes. In addition to adding the `--enable-multiprocess` config flag, it also adds a depends package and autoconf rules to build with the [libmultiprocess](https://github.com/chaincodelabs/libmultiprocess) library, and it adds new travis configuration to exercise the build code and run functional tests with the new binaries. The changes in this PR were originally part of #10102 but were moved into #16367 to be able to develop and review the multiprocess build changes independently of the code changes. #16367 was briefly merged and then reverted in #18588. Only change since #16367 has been dropping the `native_boost.mk` depends package which was pointed out to be no longer necessary in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16367#issuecomment-596484337 and https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18588#pullrequestreview-391765649 ACKs for top commit: practicalswift: ACK e2bab2aa162ae38b2bf8195b577c982402fbee9d Sjors: tACK e2bab2aa162ae38b2bf8195b577c982402fbee9d on macOS 10.15.4 hebasto: ACK e2bab2aa162ae38b2bf8195b577c982402fbee9d, tested on Linux Mint 19.3 (x86_64): Tree-SHA512: b5a76eab5abf63d9d8b6d628cbdff4cc1888eef15cafa0a5d56369e2f9d02595fed623f4b74b2cf2830c42c05a774f0943e700f9c768a82d9d348cad199e135c |

What is Dash?
Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables instant, private payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Dash uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Dash Core is the name of the open source software which enables the use of this currency.
For more information read the original Dash whitepaper.
License
Dash Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
Development Process
The master branch is meant to be stable. Development is normally done in separate branches.
Tags are created to indicate new official,
stable release versions of Dash Core.
The develop branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but is not guaranteed to be
completely stable.
The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.
Testing
Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.
Automated Testing
Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to
submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running
and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.
There are also regression and integration tests, written
in Python.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py
The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.
Translations
Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Dash Core's Transifex page.
Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.
Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
