fafcad3 doc: Add testmempoolaccept to release-notes (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Some fixups for #11742:
* Add release notes for the new rpc
* Fix a typo in the original pull
* Make the mempool reference passed to `CheckInputsFromMempoolAndCache` const, since that function is called before we return from ATMP and we must not modify the mempool.

Most logs should terminated with a '\n'. Some logs
are built up over multiple calls to logPrintf(), so
do not need a newline terminater. Comment all of
these 'continued' logs as a linter hing.

Pull request description:
This is a refactoring PR that does not change behavior in any way. This change:
1. Creates abstract [`Node`](https://github.com/ryanofsky/bitcoin/blob/pr/ipc-local/src/interface/node.h) and [`Wallet`](https://github.com/ryanofsky/bitcoin/blob/pr/ipc-local/src/interface/wallet.h) interfaces in [`src/interface/`](https://github.com/ryanofsky/bitcoin/tree/pr/ipc-local/src/interface)
1. Updates Qt code to call the new interfaces. This largely consists of diffs of the form:
```diff
- InitLogging();
- InitParameterInteraction();
+ node.initLogging();
+ node.initParameterInteraction();
```
This change allows followup PR #10102 (makes `bitcoin-qt` control `bitcoind` over an IPC socket) to work without any significant updates to Qt code. Additionally:
* It provides a single place to describe the interface between GUI and daemon code.
* It can make better GUI testing possible, because Node and Wallet objects have virtual methods that can be overloaded for mocking.
* It can be used to help make the GUI more responsive (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/10504)
Other notes:
* I used python scripts [hide-globals.py](https://github.com/ryanofsky/home/blob/master/src/2017/hide-globals/hide-globals.py) and [replace-syms.py](https://github.com/ryanofsky/home/blob/master/src/2017/hide-globals/replace-syms.py) to identify all the places where Qt code was accessing libbitcoin global variables and calling functions accessing those global variables.
* These changes were originally part of #10102. Thanks to @JeremyRubin for the suggestion of splitting them out.

b55555d rpc: Add testmempoolaccept (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
To check if a single raw transaction makes it into the current transaction pool, one had to call `sendrawtransaction`. However, on success, this adds the transaction to the mempool with no easy way to undo.
The call `testmempoolaccept` is introduced to provide a way to solely check the result without changing the mempool state.

f7683cba7b Track negated arguments in the argument paser. (Evan Klitzke)
4f872b2450 Add additional tests for GetBoolArg() (Evan Klitzke)
Pull request description:
This change explicitly enable tracking negated options in the option parser. A negated option is one passed with a `-no` prefix. For example, `-nofoo` is the negated form of `-foo`. Negated options were originally added in the 0.6 release.
The change here allows code to explicitly distinguish between cases like `-nofoo` and `-foo=0`, which was not possible previously. The option parser does not have any changed semantics as a result of this change, and existing code will parse options just as it did before.
The motivation for this change is to provide a way to disable options that are otherwise not boolean options. For example, the `-debuglogfile` option is normally interpreted as a string, where the value is the log file name. With this change a user can pass in `-nodebuglogfile` and the code can see that it was explicitly negated, and use that to disable the log file.
This change originally split out from #12689.

a7c45bc Add native support for serializing char arrays without FLATDATA (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Support is added to serialize arrays of type `char` or `unsigned char` directly, without any wrappers. All invocations of the `FLATDATA` wrappers that are obsoleted by this are removed.
This includes a patch by @ryanofsky to make `char` casting type safe.
The serialization of `CSubNet` is changed to serialize a `bool` directly rather than though `FLATDATA`. This makes the serialization independent of the size of the bool type (and will use 1 byte everywhere).
This is a small change taken from #10785.

Pull request description:
This adds configure options for `-fsanitize=address`, `-fsanitize=thread`, and `-fsanitize=undefined` which are all disabled by default. These flags are useful for developers who wish to do additional safety checking. Note that some of these are mutually incompatible, and these may have a large performance overhead.
There's some kind of strange logic required to properly check for the availability of these flags in a way that works on both GCC and Clang, hopefully the comments make it clear what's going on.

To create the interface, I've just translated all the old init.cpp wallet function calls into an interface class. I've not done any thinking about whether it makes sense to change that interface by combining/splitting those calls. This is a purely internal interface, so there's no problem in changing it later.

Pull request description:
Since the actual block files taking up more and more space, it may be desirable to have them stored in a different location then the data directory (use case: SSD for chainstate, etc., HD for blocks).
This PR adds a `-blocksdir` option that allows one to keep the blockfiles and the blockindex external from the data directory (instead of creating symlinks).
I fist had an option to keep the blockindex within the datadir, but seems to make no sense since accessing the index will (always) lead to access (r/w) the block files.

d40f06a Introduce interface for signing providers (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
`CKeyStore` is a rich interface that provides many features, including knowledge of scripts and pubkeys for solving, private keys for signing, in addition to watch-only keys and scripts, and distinguishing lack of keys from them just being encrypted.
The signing logic in script/sign does not actually need most of these features. Here we introduce a simpler interface (`SigningProvider`) which *only* provides keys and scripts. This is actually sufficient for signing.
In addtion, we swap the dependency between keystore and script/sign (keystore now depends on script/script with `CKeyStore` deriving from `SigningProvider`, rather than `CKeyStore` being the interface that signing relies on).
This is a very early step towards the design in https://gist.github.com/sipa/125cfa1615946d0c3f3eec2ad7f250a2, separating the concern between deciding what outputs are ours and signing.

1f45e21 scripted-diff: Convert 11 enums into scoped enums (C++11) (practicalswift)
Pull request description:
Rationale (from Bjarne Stroustrup's ["C++11 FAQ"](http://www.stroustrup.com/C++11FAQ.html#enum)):
>
> The enum classes ("new enums", "strong enums") address three problems with traditional C++ enumerations:
>
> * conventional enums implicitly convert to int, causing errors when someone does not want an enumeration to act as an integer.
> * conventional enums export their enumerators to the surrounding scope, causing name clashes.
> * the underlying type of an enum cannot be specified, causing confusion, compatibility problems, and makes forward declaration impossible.

non-interactive workload that consumes a lot of CPU time. This is
helpful on desktop machines where the loadblk thread can interfere with
interactive applications. More details can be found in the sched(7) man

2fb9c1e shuffle selected coins before transaction finalization (Gregory Sanders)
Pull request description:
Currently inputs are ordered based on COutPoint ordering, which while doesn't leak additional internal wallet state, likely further fingerprints the wallet as a Core wallet to observers.
Note: This slightly changed behavior of `fundrawtransaction` in that the newly-appended inputs will now be shuffled rather than in outpoint-order. This does not break API compatibility.
Simple shuffling of the coins being returned will hopefully allow the wallet to blend in a bit more, in lieu of additional data to find what other wallets are doing, or another standard, ala @gmaxwell's suggested of ordering via scriptPubKey.

CKeyStore is a rich interface that provides many features, including knowledge
of scripts and pubkeys for solving, private keys for signing, in addition to
watch-only keys and scripts, and distinguishing lack of keys from them just
being encrypted.
The signing logic in script/sign does not actually need most of these features.
Here we introduce a simpler interface (SigningProvider) which *only* provides
keys and scripts. This is actually sufficient for signing.
In addtion, we swap the dependency between keystore and script/sign
(keystore now depends on script/script with CKeyStore deriving from
SigningProvider, rather than CKeyStore being the interface that signing
relies on).

Rename account to label where appropriate
This change only updates strings and adds RPC aliases, but should simplify the implementation of address labels in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/7729, by getting renaming out of the way and letting that change focus on semantics.
The difference between accounts and labels is that labels apply only to addresses, while accounts apply to both addresses and transactions (transactions have "from" and "to" accounts). The code associating accounts with transactions is clumsy and unreliable so we would like get rid of it.

1e0ee90 Use best-fit strategy in Arena, now O(log(n)) instead O(n) (Martin Ankerl)
Pull request description:
This replaces the first-fit algorithm used in the Arena with a best-fit. According to "Dynamic Storage Allocation: A Survey and Critical Review", Wilson et. al. 1995, http://www.scs.stanford.edu/14wi-cs140/sched/readings/wilson.pdf, both startegies work well in practice.
The advantage of using best-fit is that we can switch the O(n) allocation to O(log(n)). Additionally, some previously O(log(n)) operations are now O(1) operations by using hash maps. The end effect is that the benchmark runs about 2.5 times faster on my machine:
# Benchmark, evals, iterations, total, min, max, median
old: BenchLockedPool, 5, 530, 5.25749, 0.00196938, 0.00199755, 0.00198172
new: BenchLockedPool, 5, 1300, 5.11313, 0.000781493, 0.000793314, 0.00078606
I've run all unit tests and benchmarks, and increased the number of iterations so that BenchLockedPool takes about 5 seconds again.

Support is added to serialize arrays of type char or unsigned char directly,
without any wrappers. All invocations of the FLATDATA wrappers that are
obsoleted by this are removed.
This includes a patch by Russell Yanofsky to make char casting type safe.
The serialization of CSubNet is changed to serialize a bool directly rather
than though FLATDATA. This makes the serialization independent of the size
of the bool type (and will use 1 byte everywhere).

This adds a READWRITEAS(type, obj) macro which serializes obj as if it
were casted to (const type&) when const, and to (type&) when non-const.
This makes it usable in serialization code that uses a single
implementation for both serialization and deserializing, which doesn't
know the constness of the object involved.

There are currently two ways how to generate new receiving addresses in the GUI (which leads to code duplication or required refactoring, see #12520).
Since the address-book is probably something that should be removed in the long run, suppressing the new-button in receive-mode could be a first step in deprecating the address book.
With this PR, users can still edit existing receiving address book entries and they can still create new sending address book entries.

Pull request description:
This is another fragment of improvements from #10785.
The current serialization code does not support serializing/deserializing from/to temporaries (like `s >> CFlatData(script)`). As a result, there are many invocations of the `REF` macro which in addition to changing the reference type also changes the constness. This is unnecessary in C++11 as we can use rvalue references now instead.
The first commit is an extra simplification we can make that removes the duplication of code between `READWRITE` and `READWRITEMANY` (and related functions).

It is redundant to check for the presence of MSG_NOSIGNAL macro in

MSG_NOSIGNAL is defined. Same for MSG_DONTWAIT.
In addition to that, the checks we had in configure.ac produce a
compiler warning about unused variable and thus could fail if
-Werror is present and erroneously proclaim that the macros are
not available.

Pull request description:
This is an implementation of the [Branch and Bound coin selection algorithm written by Murch](http://murch.one/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/erhardt2016coinselection.pdf) (@xekyo). I have it set so this algorithm will run first and if it fails, it will fall back to the current coin selection algorithm. The coin selection algorithms and tests have been refactored to separate files instead of having them all in wallet.cpp.
I have added some tests for the new algorithm and a test for all of coin selection in general. However, more tests may be needed, but I will need help with coming up with more test cases.
This PR uses some code borrowed from #10360 to use effective values when selecting coins.

b4bc32a451 [wallet] Get rid of CWalletTx default constructor (Russell Yanofsky)
a128bdc9e1 [wallet] Construct CWalletTx objects in CommitTransaction (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
Two commits:
- `Construct CWalletTx objects in CommitTransaction` moves a bunch of CWalletTx initialization into CWallet::CommitTransaction to dedup some code and avoid future inconsistencies in how wallet transactions are created.
- `Get rid of CWalletTx default constructor` does what is described and eliminates the possibility of empty transaction entries being inadvertently created by mapWallet[hash] accesses.
Both of these changes were originally part of #9381

Currently, the READWRITE macro cannot be passed any non-const temporaries, as
the SerReadWrite function only accepts lvalue references.
Deserializing into a temporary is very common, however. See for example
things like 's >> VARINT(n)'. The VARINT macro produces a temporary wrapper
that holds a reference to n.
Fix this by accepting non-const rvalue references instead of lvalue references.
We don't propagate the rvalue-ness down, as there are no useful optimizations
that only apply to temporaries.
Then use this new functionality to get rid of many (but not all) uses of the
'REF' macro (which casts away constness).

42343c748 Split up and sanitize CAccountingEntry serialization (Pieter Wuille)
029ecac1b Split up and sanitize CWalletTx serialization (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
This is a small subset of changes taken from #10785, fixing a few of the craziest constness violations in the serialization code.
`CWalletTx` currently serializes some of its fields by embedding them in a key-value `mapValue`, which is modified (and then fixed up) even from the `Serialize` method (for which `mapValue` is const). `CAccountingEntry` goes even further in that it stores such a map by appending it into `strComment` after a null char, which is again later fixed up again.
Fix this by splitting the serialization and deserialization code, and making the serialization act on a copy of `mapValue` / `strComment`.

8acd25d85 rpc: Allow typeAny in RPCTypeCheck (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
The second parameter of the `createrawtransaction` is a dictionary of the outputs. This comes with at least two drawbacks:
* In case of duplicate keys, either of them might silently disappear, with no user feedback at all. A user needs to make other mistakes, but this could eventually lead to abnormal tx fees.
* A dictionary does not guarantee that keys are sorted. Again, a user needs to keep this in mind, as it could eventually lead to excessive tx fees.
Even though my scenario of loss-of-funds is unlikely to happen, I see it as a inconvenience that should be fixed.

Allows SelectCoinsMinConf and SelectCoins be able to switch between
using BnB or Knapsack for choosing coins.
Has SelectCoinsMinConf do the preprocessing necessary to support either
BnB or Knapsack. This includes calculating the filtering the effective
values for each input.
Uses BnB in CreateTransaction to find an exact match for the output.
If BnB fails, it will fallback to the Knapsack solver.
Moves the current coin selection algorithm out of SelectCoinsMinConf
and puts it in coinselection.{cpp,h}. The new function, KnapsackSolver,
instead of taking a vector of COutputs, will take a vector of CInputCoins
that is prepared by SelectCoinsMinConf.
Changes CInputCoin to coinselection and to use CTransactionRef in
order to avoid a circular dependency. Also moves other coin selection
specific variables out of wallet.h to coinselectoin.h
f4b68b3f8f Log fatal LevelDB errors more verbosely (Evan Klitzke)
Pull request description:
The `leveldb::Status` class logs the filename of corrupted files, which might be useful when looking at error reports from usres. In theory this is already logged via the `LogPrintf()` statement in `HandleError()`, but that may not always be close to where the final error message is logged, e.g. see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/11355#issuecomment-340340542 where the log trace provided by the user does not contain that information (and other user comments in the same issue).
This also adds a log message instructing the user to run the process with `-debug=leveldb`, which provides much more verbose error messages about LevelDB internals. This may not really help much, but improving the error messages here can't hurt.

No change in behavior in the normal case. But buggy mapWallet lookups with
invalid txids will now throw exceptions instead of inserting dummy entries into
the map, and potentially causing segfaults and other failures.
This also makes it a compiler error to use the mapWallet[hash] syntax which
could create dummy entries.

callers do it. This ensures CWalletTx objects are constructed in a uniform way

26c06f24e Allow wallet files not in -walletdir directory (Russell Yanofsky)
d8a99f65e Allow wallet files in multiple directories (Russell Yanofsky)
Pull request description:
This change consists of three commits:
* The first commit is a pure refactoring that removes the restriction that two wallets can only be opened at the same time if they are contained in the same directory.
* The second commit removes the restriction that `-wallet` filenames can only refer to files in the `-walletdir` directory.
* The third commit makes second commit a little safer by changing bitcoin to create wallet databases as directories rather than files, so they can be safely backed up.
All three commits should be straightforward:
* The first commit adds around 20 lines of new code and then updates a bunch of function signatures (generally updating them to take plain fs::path parameters, instead of combinations of strings, fs::paths, and objects like CDBEnv and CWalletDBWrapper).
* The second commit removes two `-wallet` filename checks and adds some test cases to the multiwallet unit test.
* The third commit just changes the mapping from specified wallet paths to bdb environment & data paths.

fc44cb108 [RPC] Add list of child transactions to verbose output of getrawmempool (Conor Scott)
Pull request description:
`bitcoin-cli getrawmempool true` only lists a transaction's parents in the `depends` field. This change adds a `spentby` field to the json response, which lists the transaction's children in the mempool.
Currently the only way to find child transactions is to use `getrawmempool` or make another call to `getmempooldescendants` and search the response for transactions that list the parent_txid in the `depends` list, which is inefficient.
This change allows direct lookup of children.

e68172ed9 Add test-before-evict discipline to addrman (Ethan Heilman)
Pull request description:
This change implement countermeasures 3 (test-before-evict) suggested in our paper: ["Eclipse Attacks on Bitcoin’s Peer-to-Peer Network"](http://cs-people.bu.edu/heilman/eclipse/).
# Design:
A collision occurs when an address, addr1, is being moved to the tried table from the new table, but maps to a position in the tried table which already contains an address (addr2). The current behavior is that addr1 would evict addr2 from the tried table.
This change ensures that during a collision, addr1 is not inserted into tried but instead inserted into a buffer (setTriedCollisions). The to-be-evicted address, addr2, is then tested by [a feeler connection](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8282). If addr2 is found to be online, we remove addr1 from the buffer and addr2 is not evicted, on the other hand if addr2 is found be offline it is replaced by addr1.
An additional small advantage of this change is that, as no more than ten addresses can be in the test buffer at once, and addresses are only cleared one at a time from the test buffer (at 2 minute intervals), thus an attacker is forced to wait at least two minutes to insert a new address into tried after filling up the test buffer. This rate limits an attacker attempting to launch an eclipse attack.
# Risk mitigation:
- To prevent this functionality from being used as a DoS vector, we limit the number of addresses which are to be tested to ten. If we have more than ten addresses to test, we drop new addresses being added to tried if they would evict an address. Since the feeler thread only creates one new connection every 2 minutes the additional network overhead is limited.
- An address in tried gains immunity from tests for 4 hours after it has been tested or successfully connected to.
# Tests:
This change includes additional addrman unittests which test this behavior.
I ran an instance of this change with a much smaller tried table (2 buckets of 64 addresses) so that collisions were much more likely and observed evictions.

# Security Benefit
This is was originally posted in PR #8282 see [this comment for full details](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8282#issuecomment-237255215).
To determine the security benefit of these larger numbers of IPs in the tried table I modeled the attack presented in [Eclipse Attacks on Bitcoin’s Peer-to-Peer Network](https://eprint.iacr.org/2015/263).
**Default node:** 595 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.
**Default node + test-before-evict:** 620 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.
**Feeler node:** 5540 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.
**Feeler node + test-before-evict:** 8600 attacker IPs for ~50% attack success.
The node running feeler connections has 10 times as many online IP addresses in its tried table making an attack 10 times harder (i.e. requiring the an attacker require 10 times as many IP addresses in different /16s). Adding test-before-evict increases resistance of the node by an additional 3000 attacker IP addresses.
Below I graph the attack over even greater attacker resources (i.e. more attacker controled IP addresses). Note that test-before-evict maintains some security far longer even against an attacker with 50,000 IPs. If this node had a larger tried table test-before-evict could greatly boost a nodes resistance to eclipse attacks.

6fbc0986f gui: Show messages as text not html (Wladimir J. van der Laan)
Pull request description:
Currently, error messages (such as InitError) are displayed as-is, which means Qt does auto detection on the format.
This means that it's possible to inject HTML from the command line though e.g. specifying a wallet name with HTML in it. This isn't a direct security risk because fetching content from internet is
disabled (and as far as I know we never report strings received from the network this way). However, it can be confusing.
So explicitly force the format as text.

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

22:09:11 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

Changes addrman to use the test-before-evict discipline in which an
address is to be evicted from the tried table is first tested and if
it is still online it is not evicted.
Adds tests to provide test coverage for this change.
This change was suggested as Countermeasure 3 in
Eclipse Attacks on Bitcoin’s Peer-to-Peer Network, Ethan Heilman,
Alison Kendler, Aviv Zohar, Sharon Goldberg. ePrint Archive Report
2015/263. March 2015.
Currently, error messages (such as InitError) are displayed as-is, which
means Qt does auto detection on the format.
This means that it's possible to inject HTML from the command line
though e.g. specifying a wallet name with HTML in it. This isn't
a direct security risk because fetching content from internet is
disabled (and as far as I know we never report strings received
from the network this way). However, it can be confusing.
So explicitly force the format as text.
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

^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.

I would also appreciate it if someone can confirm that 1 kilobyte in this field indeed represents 1,000 bytes rather than 1,024 bytes (if it's supposed to be 1,024, then I'll gladly make the necessary changes to reflect this).
