Part of #2074.
This allows us to use function/variable/class attributes to specify locking
requisites, allowing problems to be detected during static analysis.
This works perfectly with newer Clang versions (tested with 3.3-3.7). For older
versions (tested 3.2), it compiles fine but spews lots of false-positives.
New, undocumented-on-purpose -mocktime=timestamp command-line
argument to startup with mocktime set. Needed because
time-related blockchain sanity checks are done on startup, before a
test has a chance to make a setmocktime RPC call.
And changed the setmocktime RPC call so calling it will not result in
currently connected peers being disconnected due to inactivity timeouts.
Prevents stomping on debug logs in datadirs that are locked by other
instances and lost parameter interaction messages that can get wiped by
ShrinkDebugFile().
The log is now opened explicitly and all emitted messages are buffered
until this open occurs. The version message and log cut have also been
moved to the earliest possible sensible location.
Three changes to how configure --enable-debug behaves:
1. Preserve user-passed CXXFLAGS/CFLAGS
2. Compile with -DDEBUG_LOCKORDER
3. Add -DDEBUG -DDEBUG_LOCKORDER to CPPFLAGS (since they are preprocessor options)
This allows users to specify, e.g. raise, the default timeout of 60
seconds. Some bitcoind instances, especially long running ones on slow
hardware, require a higher timeout for a clean shut down.
Also add a comment to bitcoind.openrc's 'retry=', since it is not
obvious from the variable name what it does.
Simplify and make the code in AppInit2 more clear.
This provides a straightforward flow, gets rid of .count() (which makes
it possible to override an earlier provided proxy option to nothing), as
well as comments the different cases.
Instead of only checking height to decide whether to disable script checks,
actually check whether a block is an ancestor of a checkpoint, up to which
headers have been validated. This means that we don't have to prevent
accepting a side branch anymore - it will be safe, just less fast to
do.
We still need to prevent being fed a multitude of low-difficulty headers
filling up our memory. The mechanism for that is unchanged for now: once
a checkpoint is reached with headers, no headers chain branching off before
that point are allowed anymore.
