This change makes IsInitialBlockDownload and NotifyHeaderTip functions no
longer tied to individual Chainstate objects. It makes them work with the
ChainstateManager object instead so code is simpler and it is no longer
possible to call them incorrectly with an inactive Chainstate.
This change also makes m_cached_finished_ibd caching easier to reason about,
because now there is only one cached value instead of two (for background and
snapshot chainstates) so the cached IBD state now no longer gets reset when a
snapshot is loaded.
There should be no change in behavior because these functions were always
called on the active ChainState objects.
These changes were discussed previously

https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27746#discussion_r1237552792 as

Pull request description:
This PR replaces the `m_recently_announced_invs` bloom filter with a simple sequence number tracking the mempool state when we last considered sending an INV message to a node. This saves 33kB per peer (or more if we raise the rate at which we relay transactions over the network, in which case we would need to increase the size of the bloom filter proportionally).
The philosophy here (compare with #18861 and #19109) is that we consider the rate limiting on INV messages to only be about saving bandwidth and not protecting privacy, and therefore after you receive an INV message, it's immediately fair game to request any transaction that was in the mempool at the time the INV message was sent. We likewise consider the BIP 133 feefilter and BIP 37 bloom filters to be bandwidth optimisations here, and treat transactions as requestable if they would have been announced without those filters. Given that philosophy, tracking the timestamp of the last INV message and comparing that against the mempool entry time allows removal of each of `m_recently_announced_invs`, `m_last_mempool_req` and `UNCONDITIONAL_RELAY_DELAY` and associated logic.

Pull request description:
Currently it is possible to import a mempool by placing it in the datadir and starting the node. However this has many issues:
* Users aren't expected to fiddle with the datadir, possibly corrupting it
* An existing mempool file in the datadir may be overwritten
* The node needs to be restarted
* Importing an untrusted file this way is dangerous, because it can corrupt the mempool
Fix all issues by adding a new RPC.

Pull request description:
Leveldb headers are currently included in the `dbwrapper.h` file and thus available to many of Bitcoin Core's source files. However, leveldb-specific functionality should be abstracted by the `dbwrapper` and does not need to be available to the rest of the code. Having leveldb included in a widely-used header such as `dbwrapper.h` bloats the entire project's header tree.
The `dbwrapper` is a key component of the libbitcoinkernel library. Future users of this library would not want to contend with having the leveldb headers exposed and potentially polluting their project's namespace.
For these reasons, the leveldb headers are removed from the `dbwrapper` by moving leveldb-specific code to the implementation file and creating a [pimpl](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/pimpl) where leveldb member variables are indispensable. As a final step, the leveldb include flags are removed from the `BITCOIN_INCLUDES` and moved to places where the dbwrapper is compiled.

Also, add missing optional include.
The context of this commit is an effort to decouple the dbwrapper header
file from leveldb includes. To this end, the includes are moved to the
dbwrapper implementation file. This is done as part of the kernel
project to reduce the number of required includes for users of the

Pull request description:
This PR proposes a clean up of the relationship between block storage and the chainstate objects, by moving the decision of whether to store a block on disk to something that is not chainstate-specific. Philosophically, the decision of whether to store a block on disk is related to validation rules that do not require any UTXO state; for anti-DoS reasons we were using some chainstate-specific heuristics, and those have been reworked here to achieve the proposed separation.
This PR also fixes a bug in how a chainstate's `setBlockIndexCandidates` was being initialized; it should always have all the HAVE_DATA block index entries that have more work than the chain tip. During startup, we were not fully populating `setBlockIndexCandidates` in some scenarios involving multiple chainstates.
Further, this PR establishes a concept that whenever we have 2 chainstates, that we always know the snapshotted chain's base block and the base block's hash must be an element of our block index. Given that, we can establish a new invariant that the background validation chainstate only needs to consider blocks leading to that snapshotted block entry as potential candidates for its tip. As a followup I would imagine that when writing net_processing logic to download blocks for the background chainstate, that we would use this concept to only download blocks towards the snapshotted entry as well.

This is to (a) avoid repeated lookups into the block index for an entry that
should never change and (b) emphasize that the snapshot base should always
exist when set and not change during the runtime of the program.
Thanks to Russ Yanofsky for suggesting this approach.
Also rewrite CheckBlockIndex() to perform tests on all chainstates.
This increases sanity-check coverage, as any place in our code where we were
invoke CheckBlockIndex() on a single chainstate will now invoke the sanity
checks on all chainstates.
This change also tightens up the checks on setBlockIndexCandidates and
mapBlocksUnlinked, to more precisely match what we aim for even in the presence
of assumed-valid blocks.
When using assumeutxo and multiple chainstates are active, the background
chainstate should consider all HAVE_DATA blocks that are ancestors of the
snapshotted block and that have more work than the tip as potential candidates.
When using assumeutxo, we only need the background chainstate to consider
blocks that are on the chain leading to the snapshotted block.
Note that this introduces the new invariant that we can only have an assumeutxo
snapshot where the snapshotted blockhash is in our block index. Unknown block
hashes that are somehow passed in will cause assertion failures when processing
new blocks.
Includes test fixes and improvements by Andrew Chow and Fabian Jahr.
Separate the notion of which blocks are stored on disk, and what data is in our
block index, from what tip a chainstate might be able to get to. We can use
chainstate-agnostic data to determine when to store a block on disk (primarily,
an anti-DoS set of criteria) and let the chainstates figure out for themselves
when a block is of interest for being a candidate tip.
Note: some of the invariants in CheckBlockIndex are modified, but more work is
needed (ie to move CheckBlockIndex to ChainstateManager, as most of what
CheckBlockIndex is doing is checking the consistency of the block index, which
is outside of Chainstate).
Block arrival information (and the preciousblock RPC, a related concept) are
both chainstate-agnostic, so these are moved to ChainstateManager. This should
just be a refactor, without any observable behavior changes.
This change drops the last kernel dependency on shutdown.cpp. It also adds new
hooks for libbitcoinkernel applications to be able to interrupt kernel
operations when the chain tip changes.
This is a refactoring that does not affect behavior. (Looking at the code it
can appear like the new break statement in the ActivateBestChain function is a
change in behavior, but actually the previous StartShutdown call was indirectly
triggering a break before, because it was causing m_chainman.m_interrupt to be
true. The new code just makes the break more obvious.)
FatalError replaces what previously was the AbortNode function in
shutdown.cpp.
This commit is part of the libbitcoinkernel project and further removes
the shutdown's and, more generally, the kernel library's dependency on
interface_ui with a kernel notification method. By removing interface_ui
from the kernel library, its dependency on boost is reduced to just
boost::multi_index. At the same time it also takes a step towards
de-globalising the interrupt infrastructure.

This and the following commit seek to decouple the libbitcoinkernel
library from the shutdown code. As a library, it should it should have
its own flexible interrupt infrastructure without relying on node-wide
globals.
The commit takes the first step towards this goal by de-globalising
`ShutdownRequested` calls in kernel code.

0e21b56a44 assumeutxo: catch and log fs::remove error instead of two exist checks (Andrew Toth)
Pull request description:
Fixes a block of code which seems to be incorrectly performing two existence checks instead of catching and logging errors. `fs::remove` returns `false` only if the file being removed does not exist, so it is redundant with the `fs::exists` check. If an error does occur when trying to remove an existing file, `fs::remove` will throw. See https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/filesystem/remove.
Also see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/init.cpp#L326-L332 for a similar pattern.

1c7d08b9ac validation: Stricter assumeutxo error handling in InvalidateCoinsDBOnDisk (Ryan Ofsky)
9047337d36 validation: Stricter assumeutxo error handling in LoadChainstate (Ryan Ofsky)
Pull request description:
There are two places in assumeutxo code where it is calling `AbortNode` to trigger asynchronous shutdowns without returning errors to calling functions.
One case, in `LoadChainstate`, happens when snapshot validation succeeds, and there is an error trying to replace the background chainstate with the snapshot chainstate.
The other case, in `InvalidateCoinsDBOnDisk`, happens when snapshot validatiion fails, and there is an error trying to remove the snapshot chainstate.
In both cases the node is being forced to shut down, so it makes sense for these functions to raise errors so callers can know that an error happened without having to infer it from the shutdown state.
Noticed these cases while reviewing #27861, which replaces the `AbortNode` function with a `FatalError` function.

Currently InvalidateCoinsDBOnDisk is calling AbortNode without an error to the
caller if it fails. Change it to return just return util::Result, and update
the caller to handle the error itself.
This causes the secondary error to be shown below the main error instead of the
other way around.
Remove access to the global gArgs for getting the directory in
utxo_snapshot.
This is done in the context of the libbitcoinkernel project, wherein
reliance of libbitcoinkernel code on the global gArgs is incrementally
removed.
Remove access to the global gArgs for the stopatheight argument and
replace it by adding a field to the existing ChainstateManager Options
struct.
This should eventually allow users of the ChainstateManager to not rely
on the global gArgs and instead pass in their own options.

It removes the kernel library's dependency on `util/system` and `interface_ui`. `util/system` contains networking and shell-related code that should not be part of the kernel library. The following pull requests prepared `util/system` for this final step: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27419https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27254https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27238.
`interface_ui` defines functions for a more general node interface and has a dependency on `boost/signals2`. After applying the patches from this pull request, the kernel's reliance on boost is down to `boost::multiindex`.
The approach implemented here introduces some indirection, which makes the code a bit harder to read. Any suggestions for improving or reworking this pull request to make it more concise, or even reworking it into a more proper interface, are appreciated.

Define a new kernel notification class with virtual methods for

This incorrectly assumed num_blocks_total would be greater than 0. This is not guaranteed until the ConnectBlock call right below it.
The total and average metric is not very useful because it does not distinguish between blocks read from disk and those loaded from memory. So rather than fixing the divide by zero issue, we just drop the metric.

This is a commit in preparation for the next few commits. The functions
are moved to methods to avoid their re-declaration for the purpose of
passing in BlockManager options.
The functions that were now moved into the BlockManager should no longer
use the params as an argument, but instead use the member variable.
In the moved ReadBlockFromDisk and UndoReadFromDisk, change
the function signature to accept a reference to a CBlockIndex instead of
a raw pointer. The pointer is expected to be non-null, so reflect that
in the type.
To allow for the move of functions to BlockManager methods all call
sites require an instantiated BlockManager, or a callback to one.
Avoid use of the expensive mod operator (%) when calculating the
buffer offset. No functional difference.

c4981e7f63 prune, import: fixes#23852 (mruddy)
Pull request description:
Fixes#23852
This allows pruning to work during the `-loadblock` import process.
An example use case is where you have a clean set of block files and you want to create a pruned node from them, but you don't want to alter the input set of block files.
#23852 noted that pruning was not working reliably during the loadblock import process. The reason why the loadblock process was not pruning regularly as it progressed is that the pruning process (`BlockManager::FindFilesToPrune`) checks the tip height of the active chainstate, and `CChainState::ActivateBestChain` was not called (which updates that tip height) in `ThreadImport` until after all the import files were processed.
An example bash command line that makes it easy to import a bunch of block files:
```
./src/qt/bitcoin-qt -debug -logthreadnames -datadir=/tmp/btc -prune=550 -loadblock=/readonly/btc/main/blk{00000..00043}.dat
```
One interesting side note is that `CChainState::ActivateBestChain` can be called while the import process is running (in the `loadblk` thread) by concurrent network message processing activity in the `msghand` thread. For example, one way to reproduce this easily is with the `getblockfrompeer` RPC (requesting a block with height greater than 100000) run from a node connected to an importing node. There are other ways too, but this is an easy way. I only mention this to explain how the `max_prune_height=225719` log message in the original issue came to occur.

Pull request description:
Part of package relay, see #27463.
Note that this still allows packages to bump transactions that are below the dynamic mempool minimum feerate, which means this still solves the "mempool is congested and my presigned 1sat/vB tx is screwed" problem for all transactions.
On master, the package policy (only accessible through regtest-only RPC submitpackage) allows 0-fee (or otherwise below min relay feerate) transactions if they are bumped by a child. However, with default package limits, we don't yet have a DoS-resistant way of ensuring these transactions remain bumped throughout their time in the mempool. Primarily, the fee-bumping child may later be replaced by another transaction that doesn't bump the parent(s). The parent(s) could potentially stay bumped by other transactions, but not enough to ever be selected by the `BlockAssembler` (due to `blockmintxfee`).
For example, (tested [here](https://github.com/glozow/bitcoin/commits/26933-motivation)):
- The mempool accepts 24 below-minrelayfeerate transactions ("0-fee parents"), all bumped by a single high-fee transaction ("the fee-bumping child"). The fee-bumping child also spends a confirmed UTXO.
- Two additional children are added to each 0-fee parent. These children each pay a feerate slightly above the minimum relay feerate (e.g. 1.9sat/vB) such that, for each 0-fee parent, the total fees of its two children divided by the total size of the children and parent is above the minimum relay feerate.
- If a block template is built now, all transactions would be selected.
- A transaction replaces the the fee-bumping child, spending only the confirmed UTXO and not any of the outputs from the 0-fee parents.
- The 0-fee parents now each have 2 children. Their descendant feerates are above minrelayfeerate, which means that they remain in the mempool, even if the mempool evicts all below-minrelayfeerate packages.
- If a block template is built now, none of the 0-fee parents or their children would be selected.
- Even more low-feerate descendants can be added to these below-minrelayfeerate packages and they will not be evicted until they expire or the mempool reaches capacity.
Unless we have a DoS-resistant way of ensuring package CPFP-bumped transactions are always bumped, allowing package CPFP to bump below-minrelayfeerate transactions can result in these problematic situations. See #27018 which proposes a partial solution with some limitations, and contains discussion about potential improvements to eviction strategy. While no adequate solution exists, for now, avoid these situations by requiring all transactions to meet min relay feerate.

be55f545d5 move-only: Extract common/args and common/config.cpp from util/system (TheCharlatan)
Pull request description:
This pull request is part of the `libbitcoinkernel` project https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/24303https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/projects/18 and more specifically its "Step 2: Decouple most non-consensus code from libbitcoinkernel". It is part of a series of patches splitting up the `util/system` files. Its preceding pull request is https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27254.
The pull request contains an extraction of ArgsManager related functions from util/system into their own common/ file.
The background of this commit is an ongoing effort to decouple the libbitcoinkernel library from the ArgsManager. The ArgsManager belongs into the common library, since the kernel library should not depend on it. See [doc/design/libraries.md](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/design/libraries.md) for more information on this rationale.

Pull request description:
A memory resource similar to `std::pmr::unsynchronized_pool_resource`, but optimized for node-based containers. The goal is to be able to cache more coins with the same memory usage, and allocate/deallocate faster.
This is a reimplementation of #22702. The goal was to implement it in a way that is simpler to review & test
* There is now a generic `PoolResource` for allocating/deallocating memory. This has practically the same API as `std::pmr::memory_resource`. (Unfortunately I cannot use std::pmr because libc++ simply doesn't implement that API).
* Thanks to sipa there is now a fuzzer for PoolResource! On a fast machine I ran it for ~770 million executions without finding any issue.
* The estimation of the correct node size is now gone, PoolResource now has multiple pools and just needs to be created large enough to have space for the unordered_map nodes.
I ran benchmarks with #22702, mergebase, and this PR. Frequency locked Intel i7-8700, clang++ 13.0.1 to reindex up to block 690000.
```sh
bitcoind -dbcache=5000 -assumevalid=00000000000000000002a23d6df20eecec15b21d32c75833cce28f113de888b7 -reindex-chainstate -printtoconsole=0 -stopatheight=690000
```
The performance is practically identical with #22702, just 0.4% slower. It's ~21% faster than master:

Note that on cache drops mergebase's memory doesnt go so far down because it does not free the `CCoinsMap` bucket array.
