Merge #11419: Utils: Fix launchctl not being able to stop bitcoind
ab5bba778 Fix launchctl not being able to stop bitcoind (Alejandro Avilés)

Pull request description:

  `bitcoind` should not be launched as daemon from the Launch Agent. Otherwise, the process cannot be stopped from `launchctl stop`/`launchctl unload`.

  To reproduce the issue:

  ```console
  $ launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.bitcoin.bitcoind.plist
  $ pgrep -fla bitcoin
  60225 /usr/local/opt/bitcoin/bin/bitcoind
  $ launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.bitcoin.bitcoind.plist
  ```

  Wait a few seconds and then run `pgrep` again:

  ```console
  $ pgrep -fla bitcoin
  60225 /usr/local/opt/bitcoin/bin/bitcoind
  ```

  The node is still running. This happens because Launch Agent is not supposed to run programs as daemons, since the agent makes sure they run in the background. Running them as daemons makes the Launch Agent lose control of the process and, so, it cannot be stopped.

Repository Tools

Developer tools

Specific tools for developers working on this repository. Contains the script github-merge.py for merging GitHub pull requests securely and signing them using GPG.

Verify-Commits

Tool to verify that every merge commit was signed by a developer using the above github-merge.py script.

Linearize

Construct a linear, no-fork, best version of the blockchain.

Qos

A Linux bash script that will set up traffic control (tc) to limit the outgoing bandwidth for connections to the Bitcoin network. This means one can have an always-on bitcoind instance running, and another local bitcoind/bitcoin-qt instance which connects to this node and receives blocks from it.

Seeds

Utility to generate the pnSeed[] array that is compiled into the client.

Build Tools and Keys

Debian

Contains files used to package bitcoind/bitcoin-qt for Debian-based Linux systems. If you compile bitcoind/bitcoin-qt yourself, there are some useful files here.

Gitian-descriptors

Files used during the gitian build process. For more information about gitian, see the the Bitcoin Core documentation repository.

Gitian-keys

PGP keys used for signing Bitcoin Core Gitian release results.

MacDeploy

Scripts and notes for Mac builds.

RPM

RPM spec file for building bitcoin-core on RPM based distributions.

Gitian-build

Script for running full Gitian builds.

Test and Verify Tools

TestGen

Utilities to generate test vectors for the data-driven Bitcoin tests.

Verify Binaries

This script attempts to download and verify the signature file SHA256SUMS.asc from bitcoin.org.
