Merge #15935: Add <datadir>/settings.json persistent settings storage
9c69cfe4c5 Add <datadir>/settings.json persistent settings storage. (Russell Yanofsky)
eb682c5700 util: Add ReadSettings and WriteSettings functions (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  Persistent settings are used in followup PRs #15936 to unify gui settings between bitcoin-qt and bitcoind, and #15937 to add a load_on_startup flag to the loadwallet RPC and maintain a dynamic list of wallets that should be loaded on startup that also can be shared between bitcoind and bitcoin-qt.

Merge #16525: Dump transaction version as an unsigned integer in RPC/TxToUniv
e80259f197 Additionally treat Tx.nVersion as unsigned in joinpsbts (Matt Corallo)
970de70bdd Dump transaction version as an unsigned integer in RPC/TxToUniv (Matt Corallo)

Pull request description:

  Consensus-wise we already treat it as an unsigned integer (the
  only rules around it are in CSV/locktime handling), but changing
  the underlying data type means touching consensus code for a
  simple cleanup change, which isn't really worth it.

08fc6f6cfc [rpc] refactor: consolidate sendmany and sendtoaddress code (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  I consolidated code between these two RPC calls, since `sendtoaddress` is essentially `sendmany` with 1 destination.

  Unless I overlooked something, the only behaviour change is that some `sendtoaddress` error codes changed from `-4` to `-6`. The release note mentions this.

  Salvaged from #18201.

Merge #19474: doc: Use precise permission flags where possible
fab5586122 doc: Use precise permission flags where possible (MarcoFalke)

Pull request description:

  Instead of mentioning the all-encompassing `-whitelist*` settings, change the docs to mention the exact permission flag that will influence the behaviour.

  This is needed because in the future, the too-broad `-whitelist*` settings (they either include *all* permission flags or apply to *all* peers) might be deprecated to require the permission flags to be enumerated.

  Alternatively, in the future there could be an RPC to set the net permission flags on an existing connection, in which case the `-whitelist*` terminology is of no help.

Pull request description:

  It should be possible to grant nodes in a local network (e.g. home, university, enterprise, ...) permission to download blocks even after the maxuploadtarget is hit.

  Currently this is only possible by setting the `noban` permission, which has some adverse effects, especially if the peers can't be fully trusted.

  Fix this by extracting a `download` permission from `noban`.

b691f2df5f Replace automatic bans with discouragement filter
This patch improves performance and resource usage around IP
addresses that are banned for misbehavior. They're already not
actually banned, as connections from them are still allowed,
but they are preferred for eviction if the inbound connection
slots are full.

Stop treating these like manually banned IP ranges, and instead
just keep them in a rolling Bloom filter of misbehaving nodes,
which isn't persisted to disk or exposed through the ban
framework. The effect remains the same: preferred for eviction,
avoided for outgoing connections, and not relayed to other peers.

Also change the name of this mechanism to better reflect reality;
they're not banned, just discouraged.

Contains release notes and several interface improvements by
John Newbery.

Merge #19408: doc: Windows WSL build recommendation to temporarily disable Win32 PE support
21a65756f5 Add Windows WSL build recommendation to temporarily disable Win32 PE support. (Aaron Clauson)

Pull request description:

  This is a solution for the issues described in #17277 and #18348

  When cross compiling Bitcoin Code for Windows the `Autoconf` configure scripts attempt to execute Win32 PE files. The configure scripts expect the attempt to fail, however, WSL supports forking the execution of Win32 PE files out to the underlying Windows OS. This can result in the executions failing for unanticipated reasons, which is the case in the two referenced issues.

  This PR adds an explanatory note and additional instructions to temporarily disable WLS's Win32 support.

Merge #19305: doc: add C++17 release note for 0.21.0
f1d21ef1c3 doc: add C++17 release note for 0.21.0 (fanquake)

Pull request description:

  TLDR: Mention that the codebase is now compatible with C++17, and that the
  intention is to require C++17 starting with 0.22.0.

  Following some discussion with Cory/Carl, and in #16684, I think this is the next step in the C++17 migration.

  While #16684 mentions a gitian/Guix release with C++17, it's not yet clear how that would be done. Are we just going to pass `--enable-c++17` in gitian/Guix?. Are we changing our default in configure.ac?

  According to the [last comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-643778757) in #16684, we wouldn't be changing anything in depends:
  > No, everything (including depends) will stay at C++11.

  However I don't think we want to be mixing C++11 built dependencies, with a C++17 built bitcoind, if there is any potential for compatibility issues.

  Instead, I'd suggest we build the 0.21.0 release as C++11, and do a complete switch to C++17 for 0.22.0. Also, if we actually wanted to use C++17 in depends for 0.21.0, we couldn't without breaking C++11 compat (Qt). See below.

  Here is a potential timeline/TODOs for the migration:

  Potential Timeline
  * 17 / 6 / 2020 - Today
  * Some time prior to split-off:
      * Confirm that compiling with C++17 works.
      * Confirm that C++11 compatibility has not been broken.
  * 1 / 11 / 2020
      * [0.21.0 split off happens](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18947).
  * 2 / 11 / 2020
      * Merge an "incompatible with C++11" change into master.
      * Switch configure to use C++17 mode by default.
      * Update minimum compiler requirements. At least:
          * Clang 5: https://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html#cxx17
          * GCC 7: https://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx-status.html#cxx17
              * While GCC has some support from 5, it seems a more complete support landed in GCC 7.
              * https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html#cxx
      * Switch depends packages to use C++17 where applicable.
      * Bump Qt from 5.9.x (no c++17 mode) to, likely, 5.15.x (LTS).
      * Drop support for macOS < 10.14.x
          * The c++ dylib shipped with macOS [doesn't support c++17, prior to macOS 10.14](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/16684#issuecomment-643722538).
          * Building Qt 5.12 or 5.15 in C++17 mode will also require a minimum macOS deployment target of 10.14. https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/283832.
      * Begin merging PRs like #19183 and #19245.
          * I've left some comments in #19183 if the macOS runtime issue interests anyone.
  * 3 / 12 / 2020
      * 0.21.0 released.
      * Built as C++11.
      * Contains warning in release notes that compiling 0.22.0 will require C++17.
  * 3 / 6 / 2021
      * 0.22.0 released.
      * Full of C++17 code.

  One thing worth noting, is that we cannot bump our Qt to a newer LTS for 0.21.0, without breaking C++11 compatibility. Qt 5.12 is not compilable in C++11 mode, as the project has started using C++14 features throughout at least the macOS portions of it's codebase, and seemingly "forgotten" that the release is meant to be C++11 compatible.
  Upstream bug here: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-77310.
  > Building Qt requires C+11, at a minimum, but in practice we use later features, usually under a feature define, or with a fallback of some kind. On platforms that support > C11, we've (apparently) not considered the fallback necessary, under the assumption C+14 is always available.

Pull request description:

  These were deprecated in #17578 and #17585, with expected 0.21 removal notified in the 0.20 release notes.
  ```
  - The `getaddressinfo` RPC has had its `label` field deprecated
    (re-enable for this release using the configuration parameter
    `-deprecatedrpc=label`).  The `labels` field is altered from returning
    JSON objects to returning a JSON array of label names (re-enable
    previous behavior for this release using the configuration parameter
    `-deprecatedrpc=labelspurpose`).  Backwards compatibility using the
    deprecated configuration parameters is expected to be dropped in the
    0.21 release.  (#17585, #17578)

Merge #16377: [rpc] don't automatically append inputs in walletcreatefundedpsbt

79804fe24b [rpc] walletcreatefundedpsbt: don't automatically append inputs (Sjors Provoost)

Pull request description:

  When the user doesn't specificy inputs, it makes sense to automatically select them. But when the user does specify inputs, `walletcreatefundedpsbt` now fails if the amount is insufficient, unless `addInputs` is set to `true`.

  Similarly for `fundrawtransaction` if the original transaction already specified inputs, we only add more if `addInputs` is set to `true`.

  This protects against fat finger mistakes in the amount or fee rate (see also #16257). The behavior is also more similar to GUI coin selection.

78c312c983 Replace current benchmarking framework with nanobench
This replaces the current benchmarking framework with nanobench [1], an
MIT licensed single-header benchmarking library, of which I am the
autor. This has in my opinion several advantages, especially on Linux:

* fast: Running all benchmarks takes ~6 seconds instead of 4m13s on
  an Intel i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz.

* accurate: I ran e.g. the benchmark for SipHash_32b 10 times and
  calculate standard deviation / mean = coefficient of variation:

  * 0.57% CV for old benchmarking framework
  * 0.20% CV for nanobench

  So the benchmark results with nanobench seem to vary less than with
  the old framework.

* It automatically determines runtime based on clock precision, no need
  to specify number of evaluations.

* measure instructions, cycles, branches, instructions per cycle,
  branch misses (only Linux, when performance counters are available)

* output in markdown table format.

* Warn about unstable environment (frequency scaling, turbo, ...)

* For better profiling, it is possible to set the environment variable
  NANOBENCH_ENDLESS to force endless running of a particular benchmark
  without the need to recompile. This makes it to e.g. run "perf top"
  and look at hotspots.

Here is an example copy & pasted from the terminal output:

* Adds support for asymptotes

  This adds support to calculate asymptotic complexity of a benchmark.
  This is similar to #17375, but currently only one asymptote is
  supported, and I have added support in the benchmark `ComplexMemPool`
  as an example.

  Usage is e.g. like this:

  ```
  ./bench_bitcoin -filter=ComplexMemPool -asymptote=25,50,100,200,400,600,800
  ```

  This runs the benchmark `ComplexMemPool` several times but with
  different complexityN settings. The benchmark can extract that number
  and use it accordingly. Here, it's used for `childTxs`. The output is
  this:

  | complexityN |               ns/op |                op/s |    err% |          ins/op |          cyc/op |    IPC |     total | benchmark

  |     0.0129823 | 114.4% | O(log n)
  |     0.0815055 | 133.8% | O(1)

  The best fitting curve is O(n^2), so the algorithm seems to scale
  quadratic with `childTxs` in the range 25 to 800.

7eaf86d3bf trivial: Suggested cleanups to surrounding code (Russell Yanofsky)
b604c5c8b5 wallet: Minimal fix to restore conflicted transaction notifications (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  This fix is a based on the fix by Antoine Riard (ariard) in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18600.

  Unlike that PR, which implements some new behavior, this just restores previous wallet notification and status behavior for transactions removed from the mempool because they conflict with transactions in a block. The behavior was accidentally changed in two `CWallet::BlockConnected` updates: a31be09bfd and 7e89994133 from https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16624, causing issue https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18325.

  The change here could be improved and replaced with a more comprehensive cleanup, so it includes a detailed comment explaining future considerations.

  Fixes #18325

Pull request description:

  This PR is a follow up to #18038 which introduced the idea of an unbroadcast set & focuses mostly on documentation updates and test fixes. One small functionality update to not throw an expected error in `LoadMempool` when you upgrade software versions.

  #18895 is another follow up to that addresses other functionality updates.

  Background context:
  The unbroadcast set is a mechanism for the mempool to track locally submitted transactions (via wallet or RPC). The node does a best-effort of delivering the transactions to the network via retries every 10-15 minutes until either a `GETDATA` is received or the transaction is removed from the mempool.

b604c5c8b5 wallet: Minimal fix to restore conflicted transaction notifications
This fix is a based on the fix by Antoine Riard <ariard@student.42.fr> in
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18600.

Unlike that PR, which implements some new behavior, this just restores previous
wallet notification and status behavior for transactions removed from the
mempool because they conflict with transactions in a block. The behavior was
accidentally changed in two `CWallet::BlockConnected` updates:
a31be09bfd and
7e89994133 from
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/16624, causing issue
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/18325.

The change here could be improved and replaced with a more comprehensive
cleanup, so it includes a detailed comment explaining future considerations.

Fixes #18325

5d1377b52b build: multiprocess autotools changes
autoconf and automake changes to support multiprocess gui/node/wallet execution.

This adds a new --enable-multiprocess flag, and build configuration code to
detect libraries needed for multiprocess support. The --enable-multiprocess
flag builds new bitcoin-node and bitcoin-gui executables, which are updated in
https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102 to communicate across processes.
But for now they are functionally equivalent to existing bitcoind and
bitcoin-qt executables.

Merge #18219: doc: Add warning against wallet.dat re-use
c1e0742308 doc: Warn about wallet.dat re-use and backups (Albert)

Pull request description:

  Following discussion in #18205, this PR adds a warning against re-use of the same wallet file on two different nodes, as that can cause problems due to race conditions between nodes (eg: both nodes using the same addresses at the same time for different things because they are not aware of the other node).

  I've also included the rationale behind the warning but I've kept it short to make it clearer to users, not sure if I should have written a longer explanation instead.

  Also, while this PR may help some users avoid problems, the changes are largely inconsequential, so feel free to close it if it's not worth the effort.

  On an unrelated note, I've also set up [this site](https://corollari.github.io/bitcoin-core-docs/), which periodically pulls bitcoin core and turns its docs into a webpage. Browsing the docs can also be done locally or on github, so this doesn't add much value, but I personally find that more comfortable and it makes them more searchable.
