Transaction relay is primarily optimized for balancing redundancy/robustness
with bandwidth minimization -- as a result transaction relay leaks information
that adversaries can use to infer the network topology.
Network topology is better kept private for (at least) two reasons:
(a) Knowledge of the network graph can make it easier to find the source IP of
a given transaction.
(b) Knowledge of the network graph could be used to split a target node or
nodes from the honest network (eg by knowing which peers to attack in order to
achieve a network split).
We can eliminate the risks of (b) by separating block relay from transaction
relay; inferring network connectivity from the relay of blocks/block headers is
much more expensive for an adversary.
After this commit, bitcoind will make 2 additional outbound connections that
are only used for block relay. (In the future, we might consider rotating our
transaction-relay peers to help limit the effects of (a).)
Moves all of the various SigningProviders out of sign.{cpp,h} and
keystore.{cpp,h}. As such, keystore.{cpp,h} is also removed.
Includes and the Makefile are updated to reflect this. Includes were largely
changed using:
git grep -l "keystore.h" | xargs sed -i -e 's;keystore.h;script/signingprovider.h;g'
78e407ad0c GetKeyBirthTimes should return key ids, not destinations (Gregory Sanders)
70946e7fee Replace CScriptID and CKeyID in CTxDestination with dedicated types (Gregory Sanders)
Pull request description:
The current usage seems to be an overloading of meanings. `CScriptID` is used in the wallet as a lookup key, as well as a destination, and `CKeyID` likewise. Instead, have all destinations be dedicated types.
New types:
`CScriptID`->`ScriptHash`
`CKeyID`->`PKHash`

Though at the moment ChainActive() simply references `g_chainstate.m_chain`,
doing this change now clears the way for multiple chainstate usage and allows
us to script the diff.

Test for expected return values when calling functions returning a success code (instead of discarding the return values).

1d4df02b7e [move-only] Move things only referenced in net_processing out of header file (Jesse Cohen)
02bbc05310 Rescope g_enable_bip61 to net_processing (Jesse Cohen)
Pull request description:
As part of a larger effort to decouple net_processing and validation a bit, these are a bunch of simple scope cleanups. I've moved things out of the header file that are only referenced in net_processing and added static (or anonymous namespace) modifiers to everything possible in net_processing.
There are a handful of functions which could be static except that they are exposed for the sake of unit testing - these are explicitly commented. There has been some discussion of a compile time annotation, but no conclusion has been reached on that yet.
This is somewhat related to other prs #12934#13413#13407 and will be followed by prs that reduce reliance on cs_main to synchronize data structures which are translation unit local to net_processing
