- Fixed undefined behavior after a call to `remove_tx_from_transient_lists` (it used an invalid iterator)
- Fixed `txCompare` (it wasn't strictly weak ordered)
std::sort is unstable, so it can return random sets of transactions when mempool has many transactions with the same fee/byte. It can result in p2pool mining empty blocks sometimes because it doesn't pick up "new" transactions immediately.

- `/getblocks.bin` respects the `RESTRICTED_TX_COUNT` (=100) when
returning pool txs via a restricted RPC daemon.
- A restricted RPC daemon includes a max of `RESTRICTED_TX_COUNT` txs
in the `added_pool_txs` field, and returns any remaining pool hashes
in the `remaining_added_pool_txids` field. The client then requests
the remaining txs via `/gettransactions` in chunks.
- `/gettransactions` no longer does expensive no-ops for ALL pool txs
if the client requests a subset of pool txs. Instead it searches for
the txs the client explicitly requests.
- Reset `m_pool_info_query_time` when a user:
(1) rescans the chain (so the wallet re-requests the whole pool)
(2) changes the daemon their wallets points to (a new daemon would
have a different view of the pool)
- `/getblocks.bin` respects the `req.prune` field when returning
pool txs.
- Pool extension fields in response to `/getblocks.bin` are optional
with default 0'd values.
Before the fix, it processed all transactions in the mempool which could be very slow when mempool grows to several MBs in size. I observed `get_block_template_backlog` taking up to 15 seconds of CPU time under high mempool load.
After the fix, only transactions that can potentially be mined in the next block will be processed (a bit more than the current block median weight).
avoids mining txes after a fork that are invalid by this fork's
rules, but were valid by the previous fork rules at the time
they were verified and added to the txpool.
Adds the following:
- "get_miner_data" to RPC API
- "json-miner-data" to ZeroMQ subscriber contexts
Both provide the necessary data to create a custom block template. They are used by p2pool.
Data provided:
- major fork version
- current height
- previous block id
- RandomX seed hash
- network difficulty
- median block weight
- coins mined by the network so far
- mineable mempool transactions
There are quite a few variables in the code that are no longer
(or perhaps never were) in use. These were discovered by enabling
compiler warnings for unused variables and cleaning them up.
In most cases where the unused variables were the result
of a function call the call was left but the variable
assignment removed, unless it was obvious that it was
a simple getter with no side effects.
A 20% fluff probability increases the precision of a spy connected to
every node by 10% on average, compared to a network using 0% fluff
probability. The current value (10% fluff) should increase precision by
~5% compared to baseline.
This decreases the expected stem length from 10 to 5. The embargo
timeout was therefore lowered to 39s; the fifth node in a stem is
expected to have a 90% chance of being the first to timeout, which is
the same probability we currently have with an expected stem length of
10 nodes.
- New flag in NOTIFY_NEW_TRANSACTION to indicate stem mode
- Stem loops detected in tx_pool.cpp
- Embargo timeout for a blackhole attack during stem phase

A newly synced Alice sends a (typically quite small) list of

the existing tx relay system to send Alice any tx in his txpool
which is not in the list Alice sent
