Reverts #11006. Replaces #13501. With this change the HTTP server will exit gracefully, meaning that all requests will finish processing and sending the response, even if this means to wait more than 2 seconds (current time allowed to exit the event loop). Another small change is that connections are accepted even when the server is stopping, but HTTP requests are rejected. This can be improved later, especially if chunked replies are implemented. Briefly, before this PR, this is the order or events when a request arrives (RPC `stop`): 1. `bufferevent_disable(..., EV_READ)` 2. `StartShutdown()` 3. `evhttp_del_accept_socket(...)` 4. `ThreadHTTP` terminates (event loop exits) because there are no active or pending events thanks to 1. and 3. 5. client doesn't get the response thanks to 4. This can be verified by applying ```diff // Event loop will exit after current HTTP requests have been handled, so // this reply will get back to the client. StartShutdown(); + MilliSleep(2000); return "Bitcoin server stopping"; } ``` and checking the log output: ``` Received a POST request for / from 127.0.0.1:62443 ThreadRPCServer method=stop user=__cookie__ Interrupting HTTP server ** Exited http event loop Interrupting HTTP RPC server Interrupting RPC tor: Thread interrupt Shutdown: In progress... torcontrol thread exit Stopping HTTP RPC server addcon thread exit opencon thread exit Unregistering HTTP handler for / (exactmatch 1) Unregistering HTTP handler for /wallet/ (exactmatch 0) Stopping RPC RPC stopped. Stopping HTTP server Waiting for HTTP worker threads to exit msghand thread exit net thread exit ... sleep 2 seconds ... Waiting for HTTP event thread to exit Stopped HTTP server ``` For this reason point 3. is moved right after all HTTP workers quit. In that moment HTTP replies are queued in the event loop which keeps spinning util all connections are closed. In order to trigger the server side close with keep alive connections (implicit in HTTP/1.1) the header `Connection: close` is sent if shutdown was requested. This can be tested by ``` bitcoind -regtest nc localhost 18443 POST / HTTP/1.1 Authorization: Basic ... Content-Type: application/json Content-Length: 44 {"jsonrpc": "2.0","method":"stop","id":123} ``` Summing up, this PR: - removes explicit event loop exit — event loop exits once there are no active or pending events - changes the moment the listening sockets are removed — explained above - sends header `Connection: close` on active requests when shutdown was requested which is relevant when it's a persistent connection (default in HTTP 1.1) — libevent is aware of this header and closes the connection gracefully - removes event loop explicit break after 2 seconds timeout Tree-SHA512: 4dac1e86abe388697c1e2dedbf31fb36a394cfafe5e64eadbf6ed01d829542785a8c3b91d1ab680d3f03f912d14fc87176428041141441d25dcb6c98a1e069d8 |

What is Dash?
Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables anonymous, instant 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, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of the Dash Core software, see https://www.dash.org/get-dash/.
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 contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.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, that are run automatically on the build server.
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 OS X, 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.
Translators should also follow the forum.
