Pull request description:
Replace `LogPrint*` functions with severity based logging functions:
* `LogInfo(...)`, `LogWarning(...)`, `LogError(...)` for unconditional (uncategorised) logging (replaces `LogPrintf`)
* `LogDebug(CATEGORY, ...)` and `LogTrace(CATEGORY, ...)` for conditional logging (replaces `LogPrint`)
* `LogPrintLevel(CATEGORY, LEVEL, ...)` for when the level isn't known in advance, or a category needs to be added for an info/warning/error log message (mostly unchanged, but rarely needed)
Logs look roughly as they do now with `LogInfo` not having an `[info]` prefix, and `LogDebug` having a `[cat]` prefix, rather than a `[cat:debug]` prefix. This removes `BCLog::Level::None` entirely -- for `LogFlags::NONE` just use `Level::Info`, for any actual category, use `Level::Debug`.
Adds docs to developer-notes about when to use which level.
Adds `-loglevelalways=1` option so that you get `[net:debug]`, `[all:info]`, `[all:warning]` etc, which might be helpful for automated parsing, or just if you like everything to be consistent. Defaults to off to reduce noise in the default config, and to avoid unnecessary changes on upgrades.
Changes the behaviour of `LogPrintLevel(CATEGORY, BCLog::Level::Info, ...)` to be logged unconditionally, rather than only being an additional optional logging level in addition to trace and debug. Does not change the behaviour of `LogPrintLevel(NONE, Debug, ...)` and `LogPrintLevel(NONE, Trace, ...)` being no-ops.

fa6b053b5c mempool: persist with XOR (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Currently the `mempool.dat` file stores data received from remote peers as-is. This may be problematic when a program other than Bitcoin Core tries to interpret them by accident. For example, an anti-virus program or other program may scan the file and move it into quarantine, or delete it, or corrupt it.
While the local wallet is expected to re-submit any pending transactions, unrelated transactions may be missing from the mempool after a restart. This may cause fee estimates to be off, or may cause block relay to be slower.
Fix this, similar to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6650, by rolling a random XOR pattern over the dat file when writing or reading it.
Obviously this can only protect against programs that accidentally and unintentionally are trying to mess with the dat file. Any program that intentionally wants to mess with the dat file can still trivially do so.

Although there currently exists tutorials on external-signer and on multisig implemented on #24519 . The external-signer tutorial assumes a connected device and the multisig tutorial is only for multisig transactions and does not include using an offline wallet
- The tutorial uses signet(instead of regtest) to be as close as possible to mainnet

91d0888921 sync: unpublish LocksHeld() which is used only in sync.cpp (Vasil Dimov)
3df37e0c78 doc: clarify that LOCK() does AssertLockNotHeld() internally (Vasil Dimov)
Pull request description:
Constructs like
```cpp
AssertLockNotHeld(m);
LOCK(m);
```
are equivalent to (almost, modulo some logging differences, see below)
```cpp
LOCK(m);
```
for non-recursive mutexes, so it is ok to omit `AssertLockNotHeld()` in such cases. Requests to do the former keep coming during review process. `developer-notes.md` explicitly states "Combine annotations in function declarations with run-time asserts in function definitions", but that seems to be too strong or unclear. `LOCK()` is also a run-time assert in this case.
Also remove `LocksHeld()` from the public interface in `sync.h` since it is only used in `sync.cpp`.

Permit (restricted topology) submitpackage RPC outside of regtest. Suggested in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/26933#issuecomment-1510851570
This RPC should be safe but still experimental - interface may change, not all features (e.g. package RBF) are implemented, etc. If a miner wants to expose this to people, they can effectively use "package relay" before the p2p changes are implemented. However, please note **this is not package relay**; transactions submitted this way will not relay to other nodes if the feerates are below their mempool min fee. Users should put this behind some kind of rate limit or permissions.

7899402cff Add headerssync-params.py script to the repository (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Builds upon #25946, as it incorporates changes based on the selected values there.
This adds the headerssync tuning parameters optimization script from https://gist.github.com/sipa/016ae445c132cdf65a2791534dfb7ae1 to the repository, updates the parameters based on its output, and adds release process instructions for doing this update in the future.
A few considerations:
* It would be a bit cleaner to have these parameters be part of `CChainParams`, but due to the nature of the approach, it really only applies to chains with unforgeable proof-of-work, which we really can only reasonably expect from mainnet, so I think it's fine to keep them local to `headerssync.cpp`. Keeping them as compile-time evaluatable constants also has a (likely negligible) performance impact (avoiding runtime modulo operations).
* If we want to make sure the chainparams and headerssync params don't go out of date, it could be possible to run the script in CI, and and possibly even have the parameters be generated automatically at build time. I think that's overkill for how unfrequently these need to change, and running the script has non-trivial cost (~minutes in the normal python interpreter).
* A viable alternative is just leaving this out-of-repo entirely, and just do ad-hoc updating from time to time. Having it in the repo and release notes does make sure it's not forgotten, though adds a cost to contributors/maintainers who follow the process.

fa6e6a3f03 doc: Remove confusing assert linter (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
The `assert()` documentation and linter are redundant and confusing:
* The source code already refuses to compile with `assert()` disabled.
* They violate the assumptions about `Assert()`, which *requires* side effects.
* The existing linter doesn't enforce the guideline, only checking for `++` and `--` side effects.
Fix all issues by removing the docs and the linter. See also https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/26684#discussion_r1287370102

This changeset finishes the first phase of the assumeutxo project. It makes UTXO snapshots loadable via RPC (`loadtxoutset`) and adds `assumeutxo` parameters to chainparams. It contains all the remaining changes necessary to both use an assumedvalid snapshot chainstate and do a full validation sync in the background.
This may look like a lot to review, but note that
- ~200 lines are a (non-essential) demo shell script
- Many lines are functional test, documentation, and relatively dilute RPC code.
So it shouldn't be as burdensome to review as the linecount might suggest.
- **P2P**: minor changes are made to `init.cpp` and `net_processing.cpp` to make simultaneous IBD across multiple chainstates work.
- **Pruning**: implement correct pruning behavior when using a background chainstate
- **Blockfile separation**: to prevent "fragmentation" in blockfile storage, have background chainstates use separate blockfiles from active snapshot chainstates to avoid interleaving heights and impairing pruning.
- **Indexing**: some `CValidationInterface` events are given with an additional parameter, ChainstateRole, and all indexers ignore events from ChainstateRole::ASSUMEDVALID so that indexation only happens sequentially.
- Have `-reindex` properly wipe snapshot chainstates.
- **RPC**: introduce RPC commands `loadtxoutset` and (hidden) `getchainstates`.
- **Release docs & first assumeutxo commitment**: add notes and a particular assumeutxo hash value for first AU-enabled release.
- This will complete the project and allow use of UTXO snapshots for faster node bootstrap.
The next phase, if it were to be pursued, would be coming up with a way to distribute the UTXO snapshots over the P2P network.

- torrent: `magnet:?xt=urn:btih:50ee955bef37f5ec3e5b0df4cf0288af3d715a2e&dn=utxo-800000.dat&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.bitcoin.sprovoost.nl%3A6969`
### Testing
#### For fun (~5min)
If you want to do a quick test, you can run `./contrib/devtools/test_utxo_snapshots.sh` and follow the instructions. This is mostly obviated by the functional tests, though.
#### For real (longer)
If you'd like to experience a real usage of assumeutxo, you can do that too.
I've cut a new snapshot at height 788'000 (http://img.jameso.be/utxo-788000.dat - but you can do it yourself with `./contrib/devtools/utxo_snapshot.sh` if you want). Download that, and then create a datadir for testing:
```sh
$ cd ~/src/bitcoin # or whatever
# get the snapshot
$ curl http://img.jameso.be/utxo-788000.dat > utxo-788000.dat
# you'll want to do this if you like copy/pasting
$ export AU_DATADIR=/home/${USER}/au-test # or wherever
$ mkdir ${AU_DATADIR}
$ vim ${AU_DATADIR}/bitcoin.conf
dbcache=8000 # or, you know, something high
blockfilterindex=1
coinstatsindex=1
prune=3000
logthreadnames=1
```
Obtain this branch, build it, and then start bitcoind:
```sh
$ git remote add jamesob https://github.com/jamesob/bitcoin
$ git fetch jamesob assumeutxo
$ git checkout jamesob/assumeutxo
$ ./configure $conf_args && make # (whatever you like to do here)
# start 'er up and watch the logs
$ ./src/bitcoind -datadir=${AU_DATADIR}
```
Then, in some other window, load the snapshot
```sh
$ ./src/bitcoin-cli -datadir=${AU_DATADIR} loadtxoutset $(pwd)/utxo-788000.dat
```
You'll see some log messages about headers retrieval and waiting to see the snapshot in the headers chain. Once you get the full headers chain, you'll spend a decent amount of time (~10min) loading the snapshot, checking it, and flushing it to disk. After all that happens, you should be syncing to tip in pretty short order, and you'll see the occasional `[background validation]` log message go by.
In yet another window, you can check out chainstate status with
```sh
$ ./src/bitcoin-cli -datadir=${AU_DATADIR} getchainstates
```
as well as usual favorites like `getblockchaininfo`.

Pull request description:
Coming from [#28414 comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28414#pullrequestreview-1618684391) Same thing also for `descriptorprocesspsbt`.
Before this PR `descriptorprocesspsbt` returns a boolean `complete` which indicates that the psbt is final, users then have to call `finalizepsbt` to get the hex encoded network transaction.
In this PR if the psbt is complete the return object also has the hex encoded network transaction ready for broadcast with `sendrawtransaction`.
This save users calling `finalizepsbt` with the descriptor, if it is already complete.

e3d484b603 wallet rpc: return final tx hex from walletprocesspsbt if complete (Matthew Zipkin)
Pull request description:
See https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/28363#discussion_r1315753887
`walletprocesspsbt` currently returns a base64-encoded PSBT and a boolean indicating if the tx is "complete". If it is complete, the base64 PSBT can be finalized with `finalizepsbt` which returns the hex-encoded transaction suitable for `sendrawtransaction`.
With this patch, `walletprocesspsbt` return object will ALSO include the broadcast-able hex string if the tx is already final. This saves users the extra step of calling `finalizepsbt` assuming they have already inspected and approve the transaction from earlier steps.

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.

Pull request description:
Currently when we load a wallet, we just iterate through all of the records in the database and add them completely statelessly. However we have some records which do rely on other records being loaded before they are. To deal with this, we use `CWalletScanState` to hold things temporarily until all of the records have been read and then we load the stateful things.
However this can be slow, and with some future improvements, can cause some pretty drastic slowdowns to retain this pattern. So this PR changes the way we load records by choosing to load the records in a particular order. This lets us do things such as loading a descriptor record, then finding and loading that descriptor's cache and key records. In the future, this will also let us use `IsMine` when loading transactions as then `IsMine` will actually be working as we now always load keys and descriptors before transactions.
In order to get records of a specific type, this PR includes some refactors to how we do database cursors. Functionality is also added to retrieve a cursor that will give us records beginning with a specified prefix.
Lastly, one thing that iterating the entire database let us do was to find unknown records. However even if unknown records were found, we would not do anything with this information except output a number in a log line. With this PR, we would no longer be aware of any unknown records. This does not change functionality as we don't do anything with unknown records, and having unknown records is not an error. Now we would just not be aware that unknown records even exist.

Pull request description:
Add an RPC to get prioritised transactions (also tells you whether the tx is in mempool or not), helping users clean up `mapDeltas` manually. When `CTxMemPool::PrioritiseTransaction` sets a delta to 0, remove the entry from `mapDeltas`.
Motivation / Background
- `mapDeltas` entries are never removed from mapDeltas except when the tx is mined in a block or conflicted.
- Mostly it is a feature to allow `prioritisetransaction` for a tx that isn't in the mempool {yet, anymore}. A user can may resbumit a tx and it retains its priority, or mark a tx as "definitely accept" before it is seen.
- Since #8448, `mapDeltas` is persisted to mempool.dat and loaded on restart. This is also good, otherwise we lose prioritisation on restart.
- Note the removal due to block/conflict is only done when `removeForBlock` is called, i.e. when the block is received. If you load a mempool.dat containing `mapDeltas` with transactions that were mined already (e.g. the file was saved prior to the last few blocks), you don't delete them.
- Related: #4818 and #6464.
- There is no way to query the node for not-in-mempool `mapDeltas`. If you add a priority and forget what the value was, the only way to get that information is to inspect mempool.dat.
- Calling `prioritisetransaction` with an inverse value does not remove it from `mapDeltas`, it just sets the value to 0. It disappears on a restart (`LoadMempool` checks if delta is 0), but that might not happen for a while.
Added together, if a user calls `prioritisetransaction` very regularly and not all those transactions get mined/conflicted, `mapDeltas` might keep lots of entries of delta=0 around. A user should clean up the not-in-mempool prioritisations, but that's currently difficult without keeping track of what those txids/amounts are.

Pull request description:
Show an error on startup if a bitcoin datadir that is being used contains a `bitcoin.conf` file that is ignored. There are two cases where this could happen:
- One case reported in [#27246 (comment)](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/27246#issuecomment-1470006043) happens when a `bitcoin.conf` file in the default datadir (e.g. `$HOME/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf`) has a `datadir=/path` line that sets different datadir containing a second `bitcoin.conf` file. Currently the second `bitcoin.conf` file is ignored with no warning.
- Another way this could happen is if a `-conf=` command line argument points to a configuration file with a `datadir=/path` line and that path contains a `bitcoin.conf` file, which is currently ignored.
This change only adds an error message and doesn't change anything about way settings are applied. It also doesn't trigger errors if there are redundant `-datadir` or `-conf` settings pointing at the same configuration file, only if they are pointing at different files and one file is being ignored.

This requires a linux kernel of 3.17.0+, which seems entirely
reasonable. 3.17 went EOL in 2015, and the last supported 3.x kernel
(3.16) went EOL > 4 years ago, in 2020. For reference, the current
oldest maintained kernel is 4.14 (released 2017, EOL Jan 2024).
Support for `getrandom()` (and `getentropy()`) was added to
glibc 2.25, https://sourceware.org/legacy-ml/libc-alpha/2017-02/msg00079.html,
and we already require 2.27+.
All that being said, I don't think you would encounter a current day
system, running with kernel headers older than 3.17 (released 2014) but
also having a glibc of 2.27+ (released 2018).

Pull request description:
It is a bit frustrating to write valid C++ code only to realize that g++-8 fails to parse it later on.
The only non-EOL operating system still shipping with g++-8 is CentOS Stream 8. I think it is reasonable for users of affected Linux distributions to:
* Upgrade their operating system, or compiler to a supported version.
* Alternatively, stay with a previous release of Bitcoin Core as long as it is supported.

fe49f06c0e doc: clarify PR 26076 release note (Sjors Provoost)
bd13dc2f46 Switch hardened derivation marker to h in descriptors (Sjors Provoost)
Pull request description:
This makes it easier to handle descriptor strings manually, especially when importing from another Bitcoin Core wallet.
For example the `importdescriptors` RPC call is easiest to use `h` as the marker: `'["desc": ".../0h/..."]'`, avoiding the need for escape characters. With this change `listdescriptors` will use `h`, so you can copy-paste the result, without having to add escape characters or switch `'` to 'h' manually.
Both markers can still be parsed.
The `hdkeypath` field in `getaddressinfo` is also impacted by this change, except for legacy wallets. The latter is to prevent accidentally breaking ancient software that uses our legacy wallet.

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.

Avoid adding transactions below min relay feerate because, even if they
were bumped through CPFP when entering the mempool, we do not have a
DoS-resistant way of ensuring they always remain bumped. In the future,
this rule can be relaxed (e.g. to allow packages to bump 0-fee
transactions) if we find a way to do so.

Pull request description:
Based on discussion and concept ACKed in #27138, add a `warnings` field to RPCs createwallet, loadwallet, unloadwallet, and restorewallet as a JSON array of strings to replace the `warning` string field in these 4 RPCs. The idea is to more gracefully handle multiple warning messages and for consistency with other wallet RPCs. Then, deprecate the latter fields, which represent all the remaining RPC `warning` fields.
The first commit f73782a903 implements https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/27138#issuecomment-1474789198 as an alternative to #27138. One of those two could potentially be backported to our currently supported releases.
