Merge #20380: doc: Add instructions on how to fuzz the P2P layer using Honggfuzz NetDriver 
fd0be92cff doc: Add instructions on how to fuzz the P2P layer using Honggfuzz NetDriver (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  Add instructions on how to fuzz the P2P layer using [Honggfuzz NetDriver](http://blog.swiecki.net/2018/01/fuzzing-tcp-servers.html).

  Honggfuzz NetDriver allows for very easy fuzzing of TCP servers such as Bitcoin Core without having to write any custom fuzzing harness. The `bitcoind` server process is largely fuzzed without modification.

  This makes the fuzzing highly realistic: a bug reachable by the fuzzer is likely also remotely triggerable by an untrusted peer.

Top commit has no ACKs.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
