These flags are potentially risky, because they require that the app explicitly
initialize stuff that it wouldn't otherwise need to initialize, and we don't
have time for the necessary review.
Improvements to fetch-params.sh
Two instances of the fetch-params.sh script running at once will result in corruption of the proving key and an error when the hashes are computed. This implements a lock to stop such a scenario from occurring.
We also terminate and don't create the symlinks if the downloaded parameters fail the checksum command.
Fixes#1306. This is the same as #1310 but now targeting master.
Fix casting error in GetFilteredNotes
Use int for minDepth like upstream instead of size_t which can lead to casting problems if a wallet tx has a depth of -1.
Also don't use FindMyNotes as mapNoteData has already been set on wallet tx.
@str4d As dicussed. This should be merged before other PRs related to wallet.
Now that BIP66 passed, OpenSSL is no longer directly part of the
consensus. What matters is that DER signatures are correctly parsed, and
secp256k1 crypto is implemented correctly (as well as the other
functions we use from OpenSSL, such as random number generation)
This means that effectively, using LibreSSL is not a larger risk than
using another version of OpenSSL.
Remove the specific check for LibreSSL.
Includes the still-relevant part of #6729: make sure CHECK_HEADER is
called using the right CXXFLAGS, not CFLAGS (as AC_LANG is c++).
Zcash Note:
This includes a code removal from d9add719519e2019b1f353d8d6832dcfc88ee850
that was omitted from 5a3913361d during
backporting of bitcoin/bitcoin#6501 to 0.11.* in bitcoin/bitcoin#6703
People seem to agree that dnsseed.* is a more intuitive address.
The original address was committed to beta1 as a result of a misunderstanding.
The DNS seeder service will be updated to coincide with at beta2 release.

Upstream patch: Fix and improve relay from whitelisted peers

An extra commit modifies the log message string, otherwise there are are a number of commits that need be to backported to add methods e.g. GetDebugMessage. These commits modify the interface in consensus/validation.h so there are conflicts to be resolved. e.g.

a9ac95c

Since the parameters changed in z8, the benchmark on speed.z.cash is showing misleading results due to variability. (The quartile and extrema bars will still show the variability with 50 runs, they just won't jump around as much between benchmark data points.)
This makes sure that retransmits by a whitelisted peer also actually
result in a retransmit.
Further, this changes the logic to never relay in case we would assign
a DoS score, as we expect to get DoS banned ourselves as a result.
