Merge #10825: net: set regtest JSON-RPC port to 18443 to avoid conflict with testnet 18332
ce3baa193 changed regtest RPCport to 18443 to avoid conflict with testnet 18332 (Ferdinando M. Ametrano)

Pull request description:

  using the same JSON-RPC default port for both testnet and regtest prevents running both at the same time on the same machine. Since RPCport=P2Pport-1 for both mainnet and testnet, and regtest P2Pport being 18444, 18443 is proposed for regtest RPCport

  Documentation has been updated (or created where missing); manpages doc/man/bitcoin*.1 could include information for regtest too

danra 7bb5d3000c Add python3 to list of dependencies on some platforms
python3 is required for running the unit tests on macOS, Ubuntu and Fedora.

Without python3 installed, 'make check' fails because /test/util/bitcoin-util-test.py fails to find python3.

Merge #11112: [developer-notes] By default, declare single-argument constructors "explicit"
f1708ef89 Add recommendation: By default, declare single-argument constructors `explicit` (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  This is a follow-up to the now merged #10969.

  Add recommendation:

  > By default, declare single-argument constructors `explicit`.
  >
  > - *Rationale*: This is a precaution to avoid unintended conversions that might arise when single-argument constructors are used as implicit conversion functions.

Merge #11050: Avoid treating null RPC arguments different from missing arguments
745d2e3 Clean up getbalance RPC parameter handling (Russell Yanofsky)
fd5d71e Update developer notes after params.size() cleanup (Russell Yanofsky)
e067673 Avoid treating null RPC arguments different from missing arguments (Russell Yanofsky)
e666efc Get rid of redundant RPC params.size() checks (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  This is a followup to #10783.

  - The first commit doesn't change behavior at all, just simplifies code.
  - The second commit just changes RPC methods to treat null arguments the same as missing arguments instead of throwing type errors.
  - The third commit updates developer notes after the cleanup.
  - The forth commit does some additional code cleanup in `getbalance`.

  Followup changes that should happen in future PRs:

  - [ ] Replace uses of `.isTrue()` with calls to `.get_bool()` so numbers, objects, and strings cause type errors instead of being interpreted as false. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133850525
  - [ ] Add braces around if statements. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133851133
  - [ ] Maybe improve UniValue type error exceptions and eliminate RPCTypeCheck and RPCTypeCheckArgument functions. https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11050#discussion_r133829303

Pieter Wuille d342424301 Remove/ignore tx version in utxo and undo
This makes the following changes:
* In undo data and the chainstate database, the transaction nVersion
  field is removed from the data structures, always written as 0, and
  ignored when reading.
* The definition of hash_serialized in gettxoutsetinfo is changed to no
  longer incude the nVersion field. It is renamed to hash_serialized_2
  to avoid confusion. The new definition also includes transaction
  height and coinbase information, as this information was missing
  before.

This depends on having a CHashVerifier-based undo data checksum
verifier.

Apart from changing the definition of serialized_hash, downgrading
after using this patch is supported, as no release ever used the value
of nVersion field in UTXO entries.

If we want to keep these numbers, could generate them using autoconf.
But this seems unnecessary.

Gregory Maxwell 7094bf7970 Trim down the XP notice and say more about what we support.
The big notice at the top of the release note is not interesting
 to most users now and apparently comes across poorly to some.

Better to provide more information about what we do support.
2017-01-15 04:55:46 +00:00
Gregory Maxwell e440ac7ef3 Introduce assumevalid setting to skip presumed valid scripts.
This disentangles the script validation skipping from checkpoints.

A new option is introduced "assumevalid" which specifies a block whos
 ancestors we assume all have valid scriptsigs and so we do not check
 them when they are also burried under the best header by two weeks
 worth of work.

Unlike checkpoints this has no influence on consensus unless you set
 it to a block with an invalid history.  Because of this it can be
 easily be updated without risk of influencing the network consensus.

This results in a massive IBD speedup.

This approach was independently recommended by Peter Todd and Luke-Jr
 since POW based signature skipping (see PR#9180) does not have the
 verifiable properties of a specific hash and may create bad incentives.

The downside is that, like checkpoints, the defaults bitrot and older
 releases will sync slower.  On the plus side users can provide their
 own value here, and if they set it to something crazy all that will
 happen is more time will be spend validating signatures.

Checkblocks and checklevel are also moved to the hidden debug options:
 Especially now that checkblocks has a low default there is little need
 to change these settings, and users frequently misunderstand them as
 influencing security or IBD speed.  By hiding them we offset the
 space added by this new option.

Wladimir J. van der Laan dd34570c45 doc: Improve windows build instructions using Linux subsystem
I did a build on a windows 10 laptop and took notes, and tried
to improve the document:

- It's the Linux subsystem for Windows, not the other way around.

- Split out dependencies: general ones, 64-bit, 32-bit. Remove the
  reference to `build-unix.md`, easy enough to be self-contained.

- Place 64-bit instructions first. 99% will want these.

- Installation instructions: recommend using `/` for prefix, same as we
  do on gitian builds. This will allow copying the files to a usable
  (from Windows) place using just `make DESTDIR=...`.

- Remove double spaces / consistent width reformatting.
