In each work item, keep track of a conservative overestimate of the best
possible feerate that can be reached from it, and then use these to avoid
exploring hopeless work items.
Add a DepGraph(depgraph, reordering) function that constructs a new DepGraph
corresponding to an old one, but with its transactions is a modified order
(given as a vector from old to new positions).
Also use this reordering feature inside DepGraphFormatter::Unser, which needs
a small modification so that its reordering mapping is old-to-new (rather than
the new-to-old it used before).
Before this commit, the worst case for linearization involves clusters which
break apart in several smaller components after the first candidate is
included in the output linearization.
Address this by never considering work items that span multiple components
of what remains of the cluster.

Pull request description:
The `test/lint/lint-format-strings.py` was designed to count the number of format specifiers and assert that they are equal to the number of parameters passed to the format function. The goal seems reasonable, but the implementation has many problems:
* It is written in Python, meaning that C++ code can not be parsed correctly. Currently it relies on brittle regex and string parsing.
* Apart from the parsing errors, there are also many logic errors. For example, `count_format_specifiers` allows a mix of positional specifiers and non-positional specifiers, which can lead to runtime format bugs. Also, `count_format_specifiers` silently skipped over "special" format specifiers, which are valid in tinyformat, which again can lead to runtime format bugs being undetected.
* The brittle logic has a history of breaking in pull requests that are otherwise fine. This causes the CI to fail and the pull request being blocked from progress until the bug in the linter is fixed, or the code is rewritten to work around the bug.
* It is only run in the CI, or when the developer invokes the script. It would be better if the developer got the error message at compile-time, directly when writing the code.
Fix all issues by using a `consteval` checked format string in `FatalErrorf` and `LogConnectFailure`.
This is the first step toward https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/30530 and a follow-up will apply the approach to the other places.

Pull request description:
_Continuation of #30569._
Since fad2991ba0, `uint256S()` has been [deprecated](fad2991ba0 (diff-800776e2dda39116e889839f69409571a5d397de048a141da7e4003bc099e3e2R138)) because it is less robust than the `base_blob::FromHex()` introduced in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30482. Specifically, it tries to recover from length-mismatches, recover from untrimmed whitespace, 0x-prefix and garbage at the end, instead of simply requiring exactly 64 hex-only characters. (see also https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30532)
This PR removes `uint256S()` (and `uint160S()`) completely, with no non-test behaviour change.
Specifically, the main changes in this PR are:
- the (minimal) last non-test usage of `uint256S()` in `ParseHashV()` is removed without behaviour change, which can partially be verified by cherry-picking and/or modifying [this test commit](1f2b0fa86d)).
- the test usage of `uint{160,256}S()` is removed, largely replacing it with `uint{160,256}::FromHex()` where applicable, potentially modifying the test by removing non-hex characters or dropping the test entirely if removing non-hex characters makes it redundant
- the now unused `uint{160,256}S()` functions are removed completely.
- unit test coverage on converting `uint256` <-> `arith_uint256` through `UintToArith256()` and `ArithToUint256()` is beefed up, and `arith_uint256` tests are moved to `arith_uint256_tests.cpp`, removing the `uint256_tests.cpp` dependency on `uint256h`, mirroring how the code is structured.
_Note: `uint256::FromUserHex()` exists to more leniently construct uint256 from user input, allowing "0x" prefixes and too-short-input, as safer alternative to `uint256S()` where necessary._

Pull request description:
Add `-ipcbind` option to `bitcoin-node` to make it listen on a unix socket and accept connections from other processes. The default socket path is `<datadir>/node.sock`, but this can be customized.
This option lets potential wallet, gui, index, and mining processes connect to the node and control it. See examples in #19460, #19461, and #30437.
Motivation for this PR, in combination with #30510, is be able to release a bitcoin core node binary that can generate block templates for a separate Stratum v2 mining service, like the one being implemented in https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/pull/48, that connects over IPC.
Other things to know about this PR:
- While the `-ipcbind` option lets other processes to connect to the `bitcoin-node` process, the only thing they can actually do after connecting is call methods on the [`Init`](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/ipc/capnp/init.capnp#L17-L20) interface which is currently very limited and doesn't do much. But PRs [#30510](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30510), [#29409](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29409), and [#10102](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102) expand the `Init` interface to expose mining, wallet, and gui functionality respectively.
- This PR is not needed for [#10102](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102), which runs GUI, node, and wallet code in different processes, because [#10102](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102) does not use unix sockets or allow outside processes to connect to existing processes. [#10102](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/10102) lets parent and child processes communicate over internal socketpairs, not externally accessible sockets.

move/formatting-only change.
These tests do not cover uint256, so move them to the appropriate
test suite. Additionally, apply clang-format suggestions.
uint160S is a test-only function, and testing input that
is not allowed in uint160::FromHex() is superfluous.
Tests that can't use uint160::FromHex() because they use input
with non-hex digit characters are
a) modified by dropping the non-hex digit characters if that
provides useful test coverage.
b) dropped if the test without non-hex digit characters does
not provide useful test coverage, e.g. because it is now
duplicated.
uint256S was previously deprecated for being unsafe. All non-test
usage has already been removed in earlier commits.
1. Tests now use uint256::FromHex() or other constructors wherever
possible without further modification.
2. Tests that can't use uint256::FromHex() because they use input
with non-hex digit characters are
a) modified by dropping the non-hex digit characters if that
provides useful test coverage.
b) dropped if the test without non-hex digit characters does
not provide useful test coverage, e.g. because it is now
duplicated.
Additionally, use BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL where relevant on touched lines
to make error messages more readable.
Tests that are solely testing constructing from a hex string
are dropped, others are modified to use a uint256 constructor
or the arith_uint256 uint64_t constructor.
Since an arith_uint256 can not be constructed from a string
directly, we need to ensure that test coverage on
UintToArith256(uint256::FromHex()) is not reduced.
uint256::FromHex() already has good test coverage, but
the test coverage on UintToArith256() and ArithToUint256()
is increased in this commit by upgrading the `conversion`
test case.
Moreover, since `uint256.h` does not have any dependencies
on `arith_uint256.h`, the conversion tests are moved to
`arith_uint256_tests.cpp` so the dependency can be cleaned
up entirely in a future commit.
Add `-ipcbind` option to `bitcoin-node` to listen on an IPC socket and accept
connections from other processes. In the future, there will be an `-ipcconnect`
option added to `bitcoin-wallet` and `bitcoin-node` to allow wallet and gui
processes to connect to the node and access it.
Example usage:
src/bitcoin-node -regtest -debug -ipcbind=unix
src/bitcoin-wallet -regtest -ipcconnect=unix info
src/bitcoin-gui -regtest -ipcconnect=unix
src/bitcoin-mine -regtest -ipcconnect=unix

* A change to extract and document `TEST_DIR_PATH_ELEMENT`, and to change its value to better match the `TMPDIR_PREFIX` in functional tests. The value previously included `PACKAGE_NAME`, which is cute, but doesn't explain why it was used (to include a space). So just use `test_common bitcoin` to achieve the same with less effort.

merged more than eight years ago (see commit 605e8473, PR #8149),

01960c53c7 fuzz: make FuzzedDataProvider usage deterministic (Martin Leitner-Ankerl)
Pull request description:
There exist many usages of `fuzzed_data_provider` where it is evaluated directly in the function call.
Unfortunately, [the order of evaluation of function arguments is unspecified](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/eval_order), and a simple example shows that it can differ e.g. between clang++ and g++: https://godbolt.org/z/jooMezWWY
When the evaluation order is not consistent, the same fuzzing/random input will produce different output, which is bad for coverage/reproducibility. This PR fixes all these cases I have found where unspecified evaluation order could be a problem.
Finding these has been manual work; I grepped the sourcecode for these patterns, and looked at each usage individually. So there is a chance I missed some.
* `fuzzed_data_provider`
* `.Consume`
* `>Consume`
* `.rand`
I first discovered this in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29013#discussion_r1420236394. Note that there is a possibility that due to this fix the evaluation order is now different in many cases than when the fuzzing corpus has been created. If that is the case, the fuzzing corpus will have worse coverage than before.
Update: In list-initialization the order of evaluation is well defined, so e.g. usages in `initializer_list` or constructors that use `{...}` is ok.

66d13c8702 test: add check that large txs aren't put into orphanage (Sebastian Falbesoner)
ed7d224666 test: add `BulkTransaction` helper to unit test transaction utils (Sebastian Falbesoner)
Pull request description:
This PR adds test coverage for the following check in `TxOrphanage::AddTx`, where large orphan txs are ignored in order to avoid memory exhaustion attacks:
5abb9b1af4/src/txorphanage.cpp (L22-L34)
Note that this code-path isn't reachable under normal circumstances, as txs larger than `MAX_STANDARD_TX_WEIGHT` are already rejected earlier in the course of doing the mempool standardness checks (see `MemPoolAccept::PreChecks` -> `IsStandardTx` -> `reason = "tx-size";`), so this is only relevant if tx standardness rules are disabled via `-acceptnonstdtxns=1`. The ignore path is checked ~~by asserting the debug log, which is ugly, but as far as I know there is currently no way to access the orphanage entries from the outside~~ via unit test that checks the return value of `AddTx`. As an alternative to adding test coverage, one might consider removing this check altogether (or replacing it with an `Assume`), as it's redundant as explained above.

8888beea8d scripted-diff: fuzz: Rename fuzz_seed_corpus to fuzz_corpora (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Now that cmake was a breaking change for all fuzz scripts, it seems fine to bundle it with another breaking change to rename the fuzz corpora directory, as discussed and approved in https://github.com/bitcoin-core/qa-assets/issues/200:
* The word "seed" in the old name doesn't really apply. In reality it is a collection of fuzz input seeds, as well as fuzz inputs.
* The rename will also allow in the future (when there is a need and desire) to provide a minimal set of possibly hand-crafted or otherwise non-fuzz-generated fuzz seed inputs to some fuzz targets (and possibly store them in a separate folder and validate that their format is still accurate and matches the fuzz target code).
* Finally, "corpus" is renamed to corpora, to clarify that the folder holds the fuzz inputs for several fuzz targets.

fuzzer to quickly generate (in)valid blocks by checking a single bit,
rather than performing the full PoW computation.
If PoW is the target of a fuzz test, then it should call
`CheckProofOfWorkImpl`.
fa09cb41f5 refactor: Remove unused LogPrint (MarcoFalke)
3333415890 scripted-diff: LogPrint -> LogDebug (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
`LogPrint` has many issues:
* It seems to indicate that something is being "printed", however config options such as `-printtoconsole` actually control what and where something is logged.
* It does not mention the log severity (debug).
* It is a deprecated alias for `LogDebug`, according to the dev notes.
* It wastes review cycles, because reviewers sometimes point out that it is deprecated.
* It makes the code inconsistent, when both are used, possibly even in lines right next to each other (like in `InitHTTPServer`)
Fix all issues by removing the deprecated alias.
I checked all conflicting pull requests and at the time of writing there are no conflicts, except in pull requests that are marked as draft, are yet unreviewed, or are blocked on feedback for other reasons. So I think it is fine to do now.

Pull request description:
Motivation:
* Validates and converts the hex string into bytes at compile time instead of at runtime like `ParseHex()`.
* Eliminates runtime dependencies: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30377#issuecomment-2214432177, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30048#discussion_r1592108480
* Has stricter requirements than `ParseHex()` (disallows whitespace and uppercase hex digits) and replaces it in a bunch of places.
* Makes it possible to derive other compile time constants.
* Minor: should shave off a few runtime CPU cycles.
`""_hex` produces `std::array<std::byte>` as the momentum in the codebase is to use `std::byte` over `uint8_t`.
Also makes `uint256` hex string constructor disallow uppercase hex digits. Discussed: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30560#discussion_r1701323070
Surprisingly does not change the size of the Guix **bitcoind** binary (on x86_64-linux-gnu) by 1 single byte.
