In many cases, it is known at compile time how many bits are requested from
randbits. Provide a variant of randbits that accepts this number as a template,
to make sure the compiler can make use of this knowledge. This is used immediately
in rand32() and randbool(), and a few further call sites.
The previous randbits code would, when requesting more randomness than available
in its random bits buffer, discard the remaining entropy and generate new.
Benchmarks show that it's usually better to first consume the existing randomness
and only then generate new ones. This adds some complexity to randbits, but it
doesn't weigh up against the reduced need to generate more randomness.

Pull request description:
This test uses the `extra_txn` (`vExtraTxnForCompact`) vector of optional orphan/conflicted/etc. transactions to provide transactions to a PartiallyDownloadedBlock that are not otherwise present in the mempool, and check that they are used.
This also covers a former nullptr deref bug that was fixed in #29752 (bf031a517c) where the `extra_txn` vec/circular-buffer was null-initialized and not yet filled when dereferenced in `PartiallyDownloadedBlock::InitData`.

b51d75ea97 fuzz: simplify FuzzedSock::m_peek_data (Vasil Dimov)
Pull request description:
Problem:
If `FuzzedSock::Recv(N, MSG_PEEK)` is called then `N` bytes would be
retrieved from the fuzz provider, saved in `m_peek_data` and returned
to the caller (ok).
If after this `FuzzedSock::Recv(M, 0)` is called where `M < N`
then the first `M` bytes from `m_peek_data` would be returned
to the caller (ok), but the remaining `N - M` bytes in `m_peek_data`
would be discarded/lost (not ok). They must be returned by a subsequent
`Recv()`.
To resolve this, only remove the head `N` bytes from `m_peek_data`.

Introduce a `Mining` interface for the `getblocktemplate`, `generateblock` and other mining RPCs to use now, and for Stratum v2 to use later.
Suggested here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29346#issuecomment-2108528652
The selection of methods added to the interface is mostly based on what the Template Provider in #29432 uses. It could be expanded further so that `rpc/mining.cpp` no longer needs `EnsureMemPool` and `EnsureChainman`.
This PR should be a pure refactor.

9f66ac7cf1 net_processing: do not treat non-connecting headers as response (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
So far, discouragement of peers triggers when their misbehavior score exceeds 100 points. Most types of misbehavior increment the score by 100, triggering immediate discouragement, but some types do not. This PR makes all increments equal to either 100 (meaning any misbehavior will immediately cause disconnection and discouragement) or 0 (making the behavior effectively unconditionally allowed), and then removes the logic for score accumulation.
This simplifies the code a bit, but also makes protocol expectations clearer: if a peer misbehaves, they get disconnected. There is no good reason why certain types of protocol violations should be permitted 4 times (howmuch=20) or 9 times (howmuch=10), while many others are never allowed. Furthermore, the distinction between these looks arbitrary.
The specific types of misbehavior that are changed to 100 are:
* Sending us a `block` which does not connect to our header tree (which necessarily must have been unsollicited). [used to be score 10]
* Sending us a `headers` with a non-continuous headers sequence. [used to be score 20]
* Sending us more than 1000 addresses in a single `addr` or `addrv2` message [used to be score 20]
* Sending us more than 50000 invs in a single `inv` message [used to be score 20]
* Sending us more than 2000 headers in a single `headers` message [used to be score 20]
The specific types of misbehavior that are changed to 0 are:
* Sending us 10 (*) separate BIP130 headers announcements that do not connect to our block tree [used to be score 20]
* Sending us more than 8 headers in a single `headers` message (which thus does not get treated as a BIP130 announcement) that does not connect to our block tree. [used to be score 10]
I believe that none of these behaviors are unavoidable, except for the one marked (*) which can in theory happen still due to interaction between BIP130 and variations in system clocks (the max 2 hour in the future rule). This one has been removed entirely. In order to remove the impact of the bug it was designed to deal with, without relying on misbehavior, a separate improvement is included that makes `getheaders`-tracking more accurate.
In another unrelated improvement, this also gets rid of the 8 header limit heuristic to determine whether an incoming non-connecting `headers` is a potential BIP130 announcement, as this rule is no longer needed to prevent spurious Misbehavior. Instead, any non-connecting `headers` is now treated as a potential announcement.

refactor: CBlockHeaderAndShortTxIDs constructor now always takes an explicit nonce.
test: Make blockencodings_tests deterministic using fixed seed providing deterministic
CBlockHeaderAndShortTxID nonces and dummy transaction IDs.
Fixes very rare flaky test failures, where the ShortIDs of test transactions collide, leading to
`READ_STATUS_FAILED` from PartiallyDownloadedBlock::InitData and/or `IsTxAvailable` giving `false`
when the transaction should actually be available.
* Use a new `FastRandomContext` with a fixed seed in each test, to ensure 'random' uint256s
used as fake prevouts are deterministic, so in-turn test txids and short IDs are deterministic
and don't collide causing very rare but flaky test failures.
* Add new test-only/internal initializer for `CBlockHeaderAndShortTxIDs` that takes a specified
nonce to further ensure determinism and avoid rare but undesireable short ID collisions.
In a test context this nonce is set to a fixed known-good value. Normally it is random, as
previously.
Flaky test failures can be reproduced with:
```patch
diff --git a/src/blockencodings.cpp b/src/blockencodings.cpp

```shell
set -e;

while (( n++ < 5000 )); do
src/test/test_bitcoin --run_test=blockencodings_tests;
done
```
This makes the options argument for BlockAssembler constructor mandatory,
dropping implicit use of ArgsManager. The caller i.e. the Mining
interface implementation now handles this.
In a future Stratum v2 change the Options object needs to be
mofified after arguments have been processed. Specifically
the pool communicates how many extra bytes it needs for
its own outputs (payouts, extra commitments, etc). This will need
to be substracted from what the user set as -blockmaxweight.
Such a change can be implemented in createNewBlock, after
ApplyArgsManOptions.
The fuzz target is generating a large amount of
transactions, but the core of the logic is
ConsumeTxMemPoolEntry making the mempool
entries for adding to the mempool. Since
ConsumeTxMemPoolEntry generates its own transaction
"vsize", we can improve efficiency of the target
by explicitly creating very small transactions,
reducing the hashing and memory burden.

Pull request description:
Allows any 2 transaction package with no in-mempool ancestors to do package RBF when directly conflicting with other mempool clusters of size two or less.
Proposed validation steps:
1) If the transaction package is of size 1, legacy rbf rules apply.
2) Otherwise the transaction package consists of a (parent, child) pair with no other in-mempool ancestors (or descendants, obviously), so it is also going to create a cluster of size 2. If larger, fail.
3) The package rbf may not evict more than 100 transactions from the mempool(bip125 rule 5)
4) The package is a single chunk
5) Every directly conflicted mempool transaction is connected to at most 1 other in-mempool transaction (ie the cluster size of the conflict is at most 2).
6) Diagram check: We ensure that the replacement is strictly superior, improving the mempool
7) The total fee of the package, minus the total fee of what is being evicted, is at least the minrelayfee * size of the package (equivalent to bip125 rule 3 and 4)
Post-cluster mempool this will likely be expanded to general package rbf, but this is what we can safely support today.

Instead of having separate warning functions (and globals) for each
different warning that can be raised, encapsulate this logic into
a single class and allow to (un)set any number of warnings.
Introduces behaviour change:
- the `-alertnotify` command is executed for all
`KernelNotifications::warningSet` calls, which now also covers the
`LARGE_WORK_INVALID_CHAIN` warning.
- previously, warnings were returned based on a predetermined order,
e.g. with the "pre-release test build" warning always first. This
is no longer the case, and Warnings::GetMessages() will return
messages sorted by the id of the warning.
Removes warnings.cpp from kernel.

Pull request description:
Remove `fees.h`, `errors.h`, and `spanparsing.h` from the util library. Specifically:
- Move `Split` functions from `util/spanparsing.h` to `util/string.h`, using `util` namespace for clarity.
- Move remaining spanparsing functions to `script/parsing.h` since they are used for descriptor and miniscript parsing.
- Combine `util/fees.h` and `util/errors.h` into `common/messages.h` so there is a place for simple functions that generate user messages to live, and these functions are not part of the util library.
Motivation for this change is that the util library is a dependency of the kernel, and we should remove functionality from util that shouldn't be called by kernel code or kernel applications. These changes should also improve code organization and make functions easier to discover. Some of these same moves are (or were) part of #28690, but did not help with code organization, or made it worse, so it is better to move them and clean them up in the same PR so code only has to change one time.

193c748e44 fuzz: add I2P harness (marcofleon)
Pull request description:
Addresses https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/28803. This updated harness sets mock time at the beginning of each iteration and deletes the private key file at the end of each iteration. Mock time is used to make the fuzz test more stable, as `GetTime` is called at points in `i2p`. Deleting the private key file ensures that each iteration is independent from the last. Now, a new key is generated in `i2p` every time, so the fuzzer can eventually make progress through the target code.
Re-working this harness also led me and dergoegge to resolve a couple of issues in `FuzzedSock`, which allows for full coverage of the `i2p` code. Those changes can be seen in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/30211.
The SAM protocol for interacting with I2P requires some specifc inputs so it's best to use a dictionary when running this harness.

429ec1aaaa refactor: Rename CTransaction::nVersion to version (Ava Chow)
27e70f1f5b consensus: Store transaction nVersion as uint32_t (Ava Chow)
Pull request description:
Given that the use of a transaction's nVersion is always as an unsigned int, it doesn't make sense to store it as signed and then cast it to unsigned everywhere it is used and displayed.
Since a few alternative implementations have recently been revealed to have made an error with this signedness that would have resulted in consensus failure, I think it makes sense for us to just make this always unsigned to make it clear that the version is treated as unsigned. This would also help us avoid future potential issues with signedness of this value.
I believe that this is safe and does not actually change what transactions would or would not be considered both standard and consensus valid. Within consensus, the only use of the version in consensus is in BIP68 validation which was already casting it to uint32_t. Within policy, although it is used as a signed int for the transaction version number check, I do not think that this change would change standardness. Standard transactions are limited to the range [1, 2]. Negative numbers would have fallen under the < 1 condition, but by making it unsigned, they are still non-standard under the > 2 condition.
Unsigned and signed ints are serialized and unserialized the same way so there is no change in serialization.

47f705b33f tests: add fuzz tests for BitSet (Pieter Wuille)
59a6df6bd5 util: add BitSet (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Extracted from #30126.
This introduces the `BitSet` data structure, inspired by `std::bitset`, but with a few features that cannot be implemented on top without efficiency loss:
* Finding the first set bit (`First`)
* Finding the last set bit (`Last`)
* Iterating over all set bits (`begin` and `end`).
And a few other operators/member functions that help readability for #30126:
* `operator-` for set subtraction
* `Overlaps()` for testing whether intersection is non-empty
* `IsSupersetOf()` for testing (non-strict) supersetness
* `IsSubsetOf()` for testing (non-strict) subsetness
* `Fill()` to construct a set with all numbers from 0 to n-1, inclusive
* `Singleton()` to construct a set with one specific element.
Everything is tested through a simulation-based fuzz test that compares the behavior with normal `std::bitset` equivalent operations.

`CheckBlockIndex() ` are consistency checks that are currently enabled by default on regtest.
The function is rather slow, which is annoying if you
* attempt to run it on other networks, especially if not fully synced
* want to generate a long chain on regtest and see block generation slow down because you forgot to disable `-checkblockindex` or don't know it existed.
One reason why it's slow is that in order to be able to traverse the block tree depth-first from genesis, it inserts pointers to all block indices into a `std::multimap` - for which inserts and lookups become slow once there are hundred thousands of entries.
However, typically the block index is mostly chain-like with just a few forks so a multimap isn't really needed for the most part. This PR suggests to store the block indices of the chain ending in the best header in a vector instead, and store only the rest of the indices in a multimap. This does not change the actual consistency checks that are being performed for each index, just the way the block index tree is stored and traversed.
This adds a bit of complication to make sure each block is visited (note that there are asserts that check it), making sure that the two containers are traversed correctly, but it speeds up the function considerably:
On master, a single invocation of `CheckBlockIndex` takes ~1.4s on mainnet for me (4.9s on testnet which has >2.4 million blocks).
With this branch, the runtime goes down to ~0.27s (0.85s on testnet).This is a speedup by a factor ~5.

09ef322acc [[refactor]] Check CTxMemPool options in constructor (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
The tests should run the same checks on the mempool options that the init code also applies. The downside to this patch is that the log line may now be printed more than once in the for loop.
This was originally noticed here https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/25290#discussion_r900272797.

re-ACK 09ef322acc . Fixed unreachable assert and updated docstring, and also added an exception for "-maxmempool must be at least " in the `tx_pool` fuzz test, which makes sense when looking at how the mempool options are constructed in `SetMempoolConstraints`.

533eab7d67 bugfix: Streamline setting reindex option (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
When restarting `bitcoind` during an ongoing reindex without setting the `-reindex` flag again, the block and coins db is left intact, but any data from the optional indexes is discarded. While not a bug per se, wiping the data again is
wasteful, both in terms of having to write it again, as well as potentially leading to longer startup times. So keep the index data instead when continuing a prior reindex.
Also includes a bugfix and smaller code cleanups around the reindexing code. The bug was introduced in b47bd95920: "kernel: De-globalize fReindex".

Pull request description:
Belt-and suspenders after #30234. Self-assignment should be safe _and_ discouraged.
We used to opt out of this warning because something deep in our serialization/byteswapping code could self-assign, but that doesn't appear to be the case anymore.

In order to ensure that the change of nVersion to a uint32_t in the
previous commit has no effect, rename nVersion to version in this commit
so that reviewers can easily spot if a spot was missed or if there is a
check somewhere whose semantics have changed.
Drop confusing kernel options:
BlockManagerOpts::reindex
ChainstateLoadOptions::reindex
ChainstateLoadOptions::reindex_chainstate
Replacing them with more straightforward options:
ChainstateLoadOptions::wipe_block_tree_db
ChainstateLoadOptions::wipe_chainstate_db
Having two options called "reindex" which did slightly different things
was needlessly confusing (one option wiped the block tree database, and
the other caused block files to be rescanned). Also the previous set of
options did not allow rebuilding the block database without also
rebuilding the chainstate database, when it should be possible to do
those independently.
