Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#24931: Strengthen thread safety assertions 
ce893c0497 doc: Update developer notes (Anthony Towns)
d2852917ee sync.h: Imply negative assertions when calling LOCK (Anthony Towns)
bba87c0553 scripted-diff: Convert global Mutexes to GlobalMutexes (Anthony Towns)
a559509a0b sync.h: Add GlobalMutex type (Anthony Towns)
be6aa72f9f qt/clientmodel: thread safety annotation for m_cached_tip_mutex (Anthony Towns)
f24bd45b37 net_processing: thread safety annotation for m_tx_relay_mutex (Anthony Towns)

Pull request description:

  This changes `LOCK(mutex)` for non-global, non-recursive mutexes to be annotated with the negative capability for the mutex it refers to, to prevent . clang applies negative capabilities recursively, so this helps avoid forgetting to annotate functions.

  This can't reasonably be used for globals, because clang would require every function to be annotated with `EXCLUSIVE_LOCKS_REQUIRED(!g_mutex)` for each global mutex; so this introduces a trivial `GlobalMutex` subclass of `Mutex`, and reduces the annotations for both `GlobalMutex`  to `LOCKS_EXCLUDED` which only catches trivial errors (eg (`LOCK(x); LOCK(x);`).

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.
