Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23542: net: open p2p connections to nodes that listen on non-default ports
36ee76d1af net: remove unused CNetAddr::GetHash() (Vasil Dimov)
d0abce9a50 net: include the port when deciding a relay destination (Vasil Dimov)
2e38a0e686 net: add CServiceHash constructor so the caller can provide the salts (Vasil Dimov)
97208634b9 net: open p2p connections to nodes that listen on non-default ports (Vasil Dimov)

Pull request description:

  By default, for mainnet, the p2p listening port is 8333. Bitcoin Core
  has a strong preference for only connecting to nodes that listen on that
  port.

  Remove that preference because connections over clearnet that involve
  port 8333 make it easy to detect, analyze, block or divert Bitcoin p2p
  traffic before the connection is even established (at TCP SYN time).

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#22834: net: respect -onlynet= when making outbound connections
0eea83a85e scripted-diff: rename `proxyType` to `Proxy` (Vasil Dimov)
e53a8505db net: respect -onlynet= when making outbound connections (Vasil Dimov)

Pull request description:

  Do not make outbound connections to hosts which belong to a network
  which is restricted by `-onlynet`.

  This applies to hosts that are automatically chosen to connect to and to
  anchors.

  This does not apply to hosts given to `-connect`, `-addnode`,
  `addnode` RPC, dns seeds, `-seednode`.

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#24072: doc: fix wording of alertnotify to match behaviour
6981de4435 doc: fix wording of alertnotify (willcl-ark)

Pull request description:

  The documentation of the `alertnotify` startup option no longer matches the implementation.

  Currently the alert is only triggered by `DoWarning` (as part of `CChainstate::UpdateTip` when blocks containing unknown versionbits are detected on the network, indicating that there may be an upcoming softfork which you don't know about), but not when we see a "really long fork":

  2825c41a61/src/validation.cpp (L2418-L2433)

  I think it would be desirable in a follow-up PR to implement the logic to alert on a (really) long fork, but not to alert for "partition detection" (abnormally slow/fast blocks). `PartitionChecker` code was removed in ab8be98fdb

refactor: replace boost::filesystem with std::filesystem
Warning: Replacing fs::system_complete calls with fs::absolute calls
in this commit may cause minor changes in behaviour because fs::absolute
no longer strips trailing slashes; however these changes are believed to
be safe.

1dd582782d docs: Make LoadChainstate comment more accurate (Carl Dong)
6b83576388 node/chainstate: Use MAX_FUTURE_BLOCK_TIME (Carl Dong)

Pull request description:

  There are 2 proposed fixups in discussions in #23280 which I have not implemented:

  1. An overhaul to return types and an option type for the two `*Chainstate` functions: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/23280#issuecomment-984149564
      - The change reintroduces stringy return types and is quite involved. It could be discussed in a separate PR.
  2. Passing in the unix time to `VerifyChainstate` instead of a callback to get the time: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/23280#discussion_r765051533
      - I'm not sure it matters much whether it's a callback or just the actual unix time. Also, I think `VerifyDB` can take quite a while, and I don't want to impose that the function have to "run quickly" in order to have it be correct.

  If reviewers feel strongly about either of the two fixups listed above, please feel free to open a PR based on mine and I'll close this one!

ae9121f958 node/chainstate: Decouple from stringy errors
This allows us to separate the initialization code from translations and
error reporting.

This change changes the caller semantics of LoadChainstate quite
drastically.

To see that this change doesn't change behaviour, observe that:

1. Prior to this change, LoadChainstate returned false only in the "bad
   genesis block" failure case (by returning InitError()), indicating
   that the caller should immediately bail. After this change, the
   corresponding ERROR_BAD_GENESIS_BLOCK handler in src/init.cpp
   maintains behavioue by also bailing immediately.

2. The failed_* temporary booleans were only used to break out of the
   outer do/while(false) loop. They can therefore be safely removed.

cb64af9635 node: Extract chainstate loading sequence
I strongly recommend reviewing with the following git-diff flags:

[META] This commit is intended to be as close to a move-only commit as
       possible, and lingering ugliness will be resolved in subsequent
       commits.

A few variables that are passed in by value instead of by reference
deserve explanation:

- fReset and fReindexChainstate are both local variables in AppInitMain
  and are not modified in the sequence

- fPruneMode, despite being a global, is only modified in
  AppInitParameterInteraction, long before LoadChainstate is called

----

[META] This semantic will change in a future commit named
       "node/chainstate: Decouple from stringy errors"

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#23005: multiprocess: Delay wallet client construction
ad085f9ba1 multiprocess: Delay wallet client construction (Russell Yanofsky)

Pull request description:

  Delay wallet client construction until after logging, thread and other init for two reasons:

  - More responsive multiprocess GUI startup. When bitcoin-gui is started this moves the call from bitcoin-gui to bitcoin-node that spawns bitcoin-wallet off of the GUI event thread and onto the background GUI init executor thread.

  - Avoids feature_logging.py test failures with bitcoin-node by making bitcoin-wallet logging start after bitcoin-node logging starts,
    because the tests are not written to handle the bitcoin-wallet logging init code running first.

  This partially reverts commit b266b3e0bf, moving wallet client creation back to the place it was located before.

There is no change in behavior. This just helps prepare for the

to due lack of a boost::filesystem::path::imbue equivalent and inability

Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#20487: Add syscall sandboxing using seccomp-bpf (Linux secure computing mode)
4747da3a5b Add syscall sandboxing (seccomp-bpf) (practicalswift)

Pull request description:

  Add experimental syscall sandboxing using seccomp-bpf (Linux secure computing mode).

  Enable filtering of system calls using seccomp-bpf: allow only explicitly allowlisted (expected) syscalls to be called.

  The syscall sandboxing implemented in this PR is an experimental feature currently available only under Linux x86-64.

  To enable the experimental syscall sandbox the `-sandbox=<mode>` option must be passed to `bitcoind`:

  ```
    -sandbox=<mode>
         Use the experimental syscall sandbox in the specified mode
         (-sandbox=log-and-abort or -sandbox=abort). Allow only expected
         syscalls to be used by bitcoind. Note that this is an
         experimental new feature that may cause bitcoind to exit or crash
         unexpectedly: use with caution. In the "log-and-abort" mode the
         invocation of an unexpected syscall results in a debug handler
         being invoked which will log the incident and terminate the
         program (without executing the unexpected syscall). In the
         "abort" mode the invocation of an unexpected syscall results in
         the entire process being killed immediately by the kernel without
         executing the unexpected syscall.
  ```

  The allowed syscalls are defined on a per thread basis.

  I've used this feature since summer 2020 and I find it to be a helpful testing/debugging addition which makes it much easier to reason about the actual capabilities required of each type of thread in Bitcoin Core.

  [About seccomp and seccomp-bpf](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seccomp):

  > In computer security, seccomp (short for secure computing mode) is a facility in the Linux kernel. seccomp allows a process to make a one-way transition into a "secure" state where it cannot make any system calls except exit(), sigreturn(), and read() and write() to already-open file descriptors. Should it attempt any other system calls, the kernel will terminate the process with SIGKILL or SIGSYS. In this sense, it does not virtualize the system's resources but isolates the process from them entirely.

  > seccomp-bpf is an extension to seccomp that allows filtering of system calls using a configurable policy implemented using Berkeley Packet Filter rules. It is used by OpenSSH and vsftpd as well as the Google Chrome/Chromium web browsers on Chrome OS and Linux. (In this regard seccomp-bpf achieves similar functionality, but with more flexibility and higher performance, to the older systrace—which seems to be no longer supported for Linux.)

  Remove the `-rescan` startup parameter.

  Rescans can be run with the `rescanblockchain` RPC.

  Rescans are still done on wallet-load if needed due to corruption, for example.
