Pull request description:

  This replaces the transaction request logic with an encapsulated class that maintains all the state surrounding it. By keeping it stand alone, it can be easily tested (using included unit tests and fuzz tests).

  The major changes are:

  * Announcements from outbound (and whitelisted) peers are now always preferred over those from inbound peers. This used to be the case for the first request (by delaying the first request from inbound peers), and a bias afters. The 2s delay for requests from inbound peers still exists, but after that, if viable outbound peers remain for any given transaction, they will always be tried first.
  * No more hard cap of 100 in flight transactions per peer, as there is less need for it (memory usage is linear in the number of announcements, but independent from the number in flight, and CPU usage isn't affected by it). Furthermore, if only one peer announces a transaction, and it has over 100 in flight already, we still want to request it from them. The cap is replaced with a rule that announcements from such overloaded peers get an additional 2s delay (possibly combined with the existing 2s delays for inbound connections, and for txid peers when wtxid peers are available).
  * The limit of 100000 tracked announcements is reduced to 5000; this was excessive. This can be bypassed using the PF_RELAY permission (to accommodate locally dumping a batch of many transactions).

  This replaces #19184, rebased on #18044 and with many small changes.

ACKs for top commit:
  ariard:
    Code Review ACK fd9a006. I've reviewed the new TxRequestTracker, its integration in net_processing, unit/functional/fuzzing test coverage. I looked more for soundness of new specification rather than functional consistency with old transaction request logic.
  MarcoFalke:
    Approach ACK fd9a0060f0 🏹
  naumenkogs:
    Code Review ACK fd9a006. I've reviewed everything, mostly to see how this stuff works at the lower level (less documentation-wise, more implementation-wise), and to try breaking it with unexpected sequences of events.

    utACK fd9a0060f0
  jonatack:
    WIP light ACK fd9a0060f0 have read the code, verified that each commit is hygienic, e.g. debug build clean and tests green, and have been running a node on and off with this branch and grepping the net debug log. Am still unpacking the discussion hidden by GitHub by fetching it via the API and connecting the dots, storing notes and suggestions in a local branch; at this point none are blockers.
  ryanofsky:
    Light code review ACK fd9a0060f0, looking at txrequest implementation, unit test implementation, and net_processing integration, just trying to understand how it works and looking for anything potentially confusing in the implementation. Didn't look at functional tests or catch up on review discussion. Just a sanity check review focused on:

What is Bitcoin?

Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network. Bitcoin Core is the name of open source software which enables the use of this currency.

For more information, as well as an immediately usable, binary version of the Bitcoin Core software, see https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/, or read the original whitepaper.

License

Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.

Development Process

The master branch is regularly built (see doc/build-*.md for instructions) and tested, but it is not guaranteed to be completely stable. Tags are created regularly from release branches to indicate new official, stable release versions of Bitcoin Core.

The https://github.com/bitcoin-core/gui repository is used exclusively for the development of the GUI. Its master branch is identical in all monotree repositories. Release branches and tags do not exist, so please do not fork that repository unless it is for development reasons.

The contribution workflow is described in CONTRIBUTING.md and useful hints for developers can be found in doc/developer-notes.md.

Testing

Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people lots of money.

Automated Testing

Developers are strongly encouraged to write unit tests for new code, and to submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run (assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: make check. Further details on running and extending unit tests can be found in /src/test/README.md.

There are also regression and integration tests, written in Python, that are run automatically on the build server. These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: test/functional/test_runner.py

The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.

Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing

Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is not straightforward.

Translations

Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to Bitcoin Core's Transifex page.

Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the translation process for details on how this works.

Important: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.

Translators should also subscribe to the mailing list.
