dev branched from the release line before 1c3523aac and so lost -Wa,-mbig-obj
from util/build-win.sh. Without it the Windows cross-compile fails at link: large
template/boost-heavy translation units exceed the PE/COFF ~32k-section limit, and
GNU ld emits "dangerous relocation" on .pdata and crashes. v1.1.0 therefore could
not produce a win64 binary at all.
The merge brings only that one file back. util/build-win.sh is the only file both
sides touched, and the two edits are ~20 lines apart, so it auto-merges keeping
both fixes: -Wa,-mbig-obj on the configure line and -DARCH=default on the cmake
line. Verified after merging that dev's own work is intact -- the extended
checkpoint table, the guarded RandomX dedup, the 1.1.0 version bump, and
ARCH=default in the other two build scripts.
No C++ changed; the only delta from the pre-merge dev is the shell script.

The RandomX skip in RandomXValidationRequired() has never fired in production.
It skips verification below the last in-index checkpoint, but the DRAGONX
checkpoint table ended at 2,838,000 while ASSETCHAINS_RANDOMX_VALIDATION is
2,838,976 -- the window was empty by 976 blocks. Every block since the RandomX
activation has been fully verified, at ~65ms per hash on the fastest x86 core
available and ~180ms on a typical user machine.
Extends the table by 388 entries at stride 1000, from 2,839,000 to 3,226,000
(tip - ~5,600, far beyond any reorg this chain has produced; max observed depth
is 3-4). Blocks requiring a RandomX verify drop from 391,447 to ~5,500. The
same extension carries the existing script/zk-proof skip (fScriptChecks,
fExpensiveChecks) over the same range.
Checkpoint data verification, before it went anywhere near source:
- generated on a continuously-synced node
- all 388 hashes identical on 4 other full nodes (388/388 on each)
- reverse-verified hash -> height, all on the active chain
- re-extracted from the patched file and diffed against the verified set
- 2,838 pre-existing entries unchanged; all 3,226 ascending and unique
Trailer fields computed from RPC, not util/checkpoints.pl, which greps a
rotating debug.log and assumes 1440 blk/day (DragonX is 2400).
Also switches all three build scripts from -DARCH=native to -DARCH=default.
RandomX's CMakeLists maps ARCH=native to -march=native, tuning the binary to
the build host: a Zen4 build emitted 746 AVX-512 instructions into
librandomx.a, and every seed reports avx512f=no, so that binary would SIGILL
inside RandomX fleet-wide -- and on any user CPU older than the build machine.
build-win.sh had the same flag, so shipped Windows binaries inherited it.
ARCH=default keeps -maes and per-file -mssse3/-mavx2, so the portable baseline
costs essentially nothing. Note build.sh skips cmake entirely when
src/RandomX/build/ exists, so a stale dir silently preserves the old ARCH.
Validated on an isolated datadir on an EPYC seed, bootstrap -> tip:
- below 3,226,000 (RandomX skipped): 91.3 blk/s (22,823 blocks / 250s)
- at/above 3,226,000 (verified): 4.7 blk/s
~19x at the boundary. The 4.7 blk/s baseline matches a same-day restore on
the old binary, corroborating it independently.
- gettxoutsetinfo at height 3,231,951 BYTE-IDENTICAL to a live node
(hash_serialized 4885c2374ef8b84c648b97d560a57cfcc99bb979142dc89c2a5ccbc90a1f1692,
222,635 txs/txouts, 15,826,352 bytes, total 667909.93689180)
- synced through all 388 new checkpoints with zero rejections
- verifychain 4 (500) and 3 (2000) both true
Binary: v1.0.3-bf3c33c53-dirty, stripped md5 fe83d70fec5b50c38bf65ea6c733ffa9
Checkpoints decay at 2,400 blocks/day; regenerating them belongs on the
release checklist.

Large template/boost-heavy TUs (e.g. asyncrpcoperation.cpp) exceed the standard
PE/COFF ~32k-section limit under mingw-w64, which makes GNU ld emit
"dangerous relocation" on .pdata and crash (SIGSEGV) at link. The bigobj COFF
variant lifts that limit; this is the same flag Bitcoin Core sets for its mingw
host. Fixes the Windows daemon cross-compile.

Minimal rebrand (see compliant-rebrand branch for full rebrand):
- Rename binaries: hushd/hush-cli/hush-tx → dragonxd/dragonx-cli/dragonx-tx
- Default to DRAGONX chain params without -ac_* flags (randomx, blocktime=36, private=1)
- Update configure.ac: AC_INIT([DragonX],[1.0.0])
- Update client version string and user-agent to /DragonX:1.0.0/
- Add chainparams.cpp with DRAGONX network parameters
- Update build.sh, miner.cpp, pow.cpp for DragonX
- Add bootstrap-dragonx.sh utility script
- Update .gitignore for release directory
Share single RandomX dataset across all mining threads:
- Add RandomXDatasetManager with readers-writer lock, reducing RAM from
~2GB per thread to ~2GB total plus ~2MB per thread for the VM scratchpad
- Add LogProcessMemory() diagnostic helper for Linux and Windows
