fa0fa0f700 refactor: Revert "disable self-assign warning for tests" (MarcoFalke)
faed118fb3 build: Bump clang minimum supported version to 17 (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Most supported operating systems ship with clang-17 (or later), so bump the minimum to that and allow new code to drop workarounds for previous clang bugs.
(Apart from dropping the small workaround, this bump allows the `ci_native_nowallet_libbitcoinkernel` CI to run on riscv64 without running into an ICE with clang-16.)
This patch will only be released in version 31.x, next year (2026).
For reference:
* https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/clang-19
* https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/clang (clang-18)
* CentOS-like 8/9/10 ship clang-17 (and later) via Stream
* FreeBSD 12/13 ship clang-17 (and later) via packages
* OpenSuse Tumbleweed ships with https://software.opensuse.org/package/clang (clang21); No idea about OpenSuse Leap
On operating systems where the clang version is not shipped by default, the user would have to use GCC, or install clang in a different way. For example:
* https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/g++ (g++-12)
* https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/g++ (g++-11)
* https://apt.llvm.org/, or nix, or guix, or compile clang from source, ...
*Ubuntu 22.04 LTS does not ship with clang-16 (the previous minimum required), nor with clang-17, so one of the above workarounds is needed there.*
macOS 14 is unaffected, and the previous minimum requirement of Xcode15.0 remains, see also 919e6d01e9/depends/hosts/darwin.mk (L3-L4). (Modulo compiling the fuzz tests, which requires 919e6d01e9/.github/workflows/ci.yml (L149))

Pull request description:
The main goal is to remove [deprecated](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/32361) code (removed in C++26).
This PR employs Microsoft's modern [approach](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/design/globalizing/use-utf8-code-page) to handling UTF-8:
> Until recently, Windows has emphasized "Unicode" -W variants over -A APIs. However, recent releases have used the ANSI code page and -A APIs as a means to introduce UTF-8 support to apps. If the ANSI code page is configured for UTF-8, then -A APIs typically operate in UTF-8. This model has the benefit of supporting existing code built with -A APIs without any code changes.
TODO:
- [x] Handle application manifests properly when building with MSVC.
- [x] Bump the minimum supported Windows version to 1903 (May 2019 Update).
- [x] Remove all remaining use cases of the deprecated `std:wstring_convert`.
- The instance in `subprocess.h` will be addressed in a follow-up PR, as additional tests are likely needed.
- The usage in `common/system.cpp` is handled in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32566.

Pull request description:
### Background
As part of the release process we often run *contrib/devtools/headerssync-params.py* and increase the values of the constants `HEADER_COMMITMENT_PERIOD` and `REDOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE` in *src/headerssync.cpp* as per *doc/release-process.md* (example: 11a2d3a63e). This helps fine tune the memory consumption per `HeadersSyncState`-instance in the face of malicious peers.
(The `REDOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE`/`HEADER_COMMITMENT_PERIOD` ratio determines how many Headers Sync commitment bits must match between PRESYNC & REDOWNLOAD phases before we start permanently storing headers from a peer. For more details see comments in *src/headerssync.h* and *contrib/devtools/headerssync-params.py*).
### Problem: Not feeding back headers until completing sync
During v30 release process #33274 made `REDOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE` exceed the `target_blocks` constant used to control the length of chains generated for testing Headers Sync (`15000`, *headers_sync_chainwork_tests.cpp*).
The `HeadersSyncState::m_redownloaded_headers`-buffer now does not reach the `REDOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE`-threshold during those unit tests. As a consequence `HeadersSyncState::PopHeadersReadyForAcceptance()` will not start feeding back headers until the PoW threshold has been met. While this will not cause the unit test to start failing on master, it means we have gone from testing behavior that resembles mainnet (way more than `REDOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE` headers to reach the PoW limit), to behavior that is not possible/expected there.
### Solution
Avoid testing this unrealistic condition of completing Headers Sync before reaching `REDOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE` by making tests able to define their own values through the new `HeadersSyncParams` instead of having them hard-coded for all chains & tests.
### Commits
* First 6 commits refactor and improve the unit tests in order to clarify latter changes.
* We then add checks for the behavior around the `REDOWNLOAD_BUFFER_SIZE` threshold.
* The main change: we extract the section from *headerssync.cpp* containing the constants to *kernel/chainparams.cpp*, making `HeadersSyncState` no longer hard-coded to mainnet.
### Notes
This PR used to be called "headerssync: Preempt unrealistic unit test behavior".

1aaaaa078b fuzz: Drop unused workaround after Apple-Clang bump (MarcoFalke)
fadad7a494 Drop support for EOL macOS 13 (MarcoFalke)
Pull request description:
Now that macOS 13 is EOL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacOS_Ventura), it seems odd to still support it.
(macOS Ventura 13.7.8 received its final security update on 20 Aug 2025: https://support.apple.com/en-us/100100)
This patch will only be released in version 31.x, another 6 months out from now.
So:
* Update the depends build and release note template to drop EOL macOS 13.
* As a result, update the earliest Xcode to version 16 in CI.
* Also, bump the macOS CI runner to version 15, to avoid issues when version 14 will be at its EOL in about 1 year.
This also allows to drop a small workaround in the fuzz tests and unlocks libcpp hardening (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33462)

`bitcoin-wallet` as-is is merely an offline wallet inspection tool
(introduced more than 9 years ago in PR #13926) that doesn't have any
relation with IPC/multiprocess, so remove it from the list of binaries
that use `libbitcoin_ipc`.
Move calculated constants from the top of src/headerssync.cpp into src/kernel/chainparams.cpp.
Instead of being hardcoded to mainnet parameters, HeadersSyncState can now vary depending on chain or test. (This means we can reset TARGET_BLOCKS back to the nice round number of 15'000).
Signet and testnets got new HeadersSyncParams constants through temporarily altering headerssync-params.py with corresponding GENESIS_TIME and MINCHAINWORK_HEADERS (based off defaultAssumeValid block height comments, corresponding to nMinimumChainWork). Regtest doesn't have a default assume valid block height, so the values are copied from Testnet 4. Since the constants only affect memory usage, and have very low impact unless dealing with a largely malicious chain, it's not that critical to keep updating them for non-mainnet chains.

Pull request description:
Closes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/26362
This continues the work that was started with #26426. It fixes the overflow issue by switching the tracked values that are in danger of overflowing from `CAmount` to `arith_uint256`.
The current approach opts for a simple solution to ensure compatibility with datadirs including the previous version of the index: The new version of the index goes into a separate location in the datadir (`index/coinstatsindex/` rather than `index/coinstats/` before, the new naming is more consistent with the naming of the other indexes). There is no explicit concept of versioning of the index which earlier versions of this PR had. Having the two different versions of the index in separate places allows for downgrading of the node without having to rebuild the index. However, there will be a warning printed in the logs if the new code (v30) detects the old index still being present. A future version could delete a left-over legacy index automatically.
The PR also includes several minor improvements but most notably it lets new entries be calculated and stored without needing to read any DB records.

The index originally stored cumulative values in a CAmount type but this allowed for
potential overflow issues which were observed on Signet. Fix this by
storing the values that are in danger of overflowing in a arith_uint256.
Also turns an unnecessary copy into a reference in RevertBlock and
CustomAppend and gets
rid of the explicit total unspendable tracking which can be calculated
by adding the four categories of unspendables together.

Pull request description:
Have depends make libmultiprocess by default. This PR causes the following behavior changes:
1. **bitcoin-node and bitcoin-gui binaries are included in releases**, due to `ENABLE_IPC` option being switched on by default in depends builds
2. `ENABLE_IPC` is also switched on by default in non-depends builds (instructions updated, #33190 does this as a standalone PR)
3. Various changes to CI: switching on `ENABLE_IPC` on in most configurations and using `bitcoin-node` binary (`bitcoin -m`) for functional tests in two of them.
4. The `bitcoin-node` and `bitcoin-gui` are added to `Maintenance.cmake` (since they're now in the release)
This PR doesn't need to do all of these things at once. However it's is simpler, avoids code churn (especially in CI), and probably less confusing to make all these changes in the same PR.
Windows is not supported yet, so `ENABLE_IPC` is off by default for it. It can be enabled after https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32387.
The initial main use case for IPC is to enable experimental support for the Mining IPC interface. A working example of a Stratum v2 Template Provider client using this interface can be found here: https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/pull/48.
See #31756 for discussion of when this should happen. Supersedes #30975.
## Wait what, why?
The [Stratum v2 spec](https://stratumprotocol.org/specification) has been around for a few years now, mostly stable but with [ongoing activity](https://github.com/stratum-mining/sv2-spec/commits/main/) to clarify and fix more subtle issues encountered by implementers. Most of the implementation is built in Rust in a project called the Stratum Reference Implementation ([SRI](https://github.com/stratum-mining/stratum)).
[Braiins](https://demand.work) added Stratum v2 support to both their (custom) firmware and pool several years ago, though they have fallen behind on recent spec changes (update: it seems they've fixed that). Apparently [new hardware is underway](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31802#issuecomment-3189623427) that supports Stratum v2 without the need for custom firmware.
[DMND pool](https://www.dmnd.work) is Stratum v2 native from the start and employs several of the SRI developers (they haven't fully launched though). The industry is rather secretive, but apparently [there is more underway](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31802#issuecomment-3190601926).
What does Bitcoin Core have to do with this? Well, in Stratum v2 jargon we are the Template Provider.
Or at least, the Template Provider role needs us to make block templates. Initially back in 2023 the plan was to have Bitcoin Core implement this role entirely, see #23049. It would speak the sv2 encrypted message protocol. In fact the spec was designed around this assumption, making sure to only use cryptographic primitives already in our codebase.
I took over that effort in late 2023, but during 2024 it became quite clear there was [strong resistance](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29432#pullrequestreview-2132699185) to the idea of including all this new code, opening another network ports, etc.
At the same time there was the long running multiprocess / IPC project #10102, and the idea was born to apply that here: instead of including Stratum v2 specific stuff, we offer a general Mining interface via an IPC connection that can e.g. push out fresh block templates as fees rise above a threshold (something not possible and/or very inefficient with `getblocktemplate`). A client sidecar application then sits between the Stratum v2 world and our node.
Currently there's only one such sidecar application, maintained by me, and reusing the same codebase from the integrated approach. An attempt has been made to connect to our interface from Rust https://github.com/bitcoin-core/libmultiprocess/issues/174, which would pave the way for SRI include the Template Provider role. Plebhash below indicates he's also working on that: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31802#issuecomment-3191547244.
So with this new approach in mind, between mid 2024 until spring 2025, I introduced a new Mining interface (#30200 - #31785). At the same time Russ Ryanosky worked on more tight integration of [libmultiprocess](https://github.com/bitcoin-core/libmultiprocess), including making it a subtree in #31741. See [design/multiprocess.md](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/design/multiprocess.md).
Meanwhile I've been maintaining a fork of Bitcoin Core that includes the Template Provider, in the original integrated approach (https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/pull/68) as well as an IPC + sidecar variant (https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/pull/48). I've been shipping [regular releases](https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/releases), mostly after bug fixes or major rebases. The SRI team has been testing both variants, though the "official" [instruction on their web page](https://stratumprotocol.org/developers) is to stick to integrated version. Bug reports on [my repo fork](https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/issues?q=is%3Aissue) as well as on the [SRI repo](https://github.com/stratum-mining/stratum/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20%20label%3A%22template%20provider%22) are evidence of actual testing happening.
But as Pavlenex writes below:
> one recurring feedback I kept getting regardless of the size/type of miner is that the need to run a forked version of Bitcoin Core remains a significant barrier to adoption
This PR gets rids of that significant barrier. People can download a "pristine" version of Bitcoin Core and the only change is to start it with `bitcoin node -m -ipcconnect=unix` instead of the usual `bitcoind`.
Once that's released, I can dramatically simplify my sidecar codebase (https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/pull/48) by removing pretty much all Bitcoin Core code that it doesn't need. My plan is to then make that a separate repository, which should be much easier to contribute to. I can then also make (deterministically built) signed releases, while making it clear that sidecar code has nothing to do with Bitcoin Core. Perhaps later on SRI implements the same and I can stop maintaining that project.
Conceptually the situation will be a lot clearer;
- today: download forked version of `bitcoind` (or a forked version of `bitcoin-node`, plus `bitcoin-mine`), install SRI stuff
- tomorrow: download Bitcoin Core v30, install `bitcoin-mine` and SRI
- future: download Bitcoin Core v30 and SRI

Pull request description:
This is a followup to #33050 now that it's merged. Using "block"/"mempool" as the error reason is clearer to a user than "mandatory"/"non-mandatory". The "non-mandatory" errors got renamed to "mempool" in #33050 (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33050#discussion_r2230103371). This takes care of the second part of the renaming.

Pull request description:
ML post for discussion about the general concept, how this impacts the wider ecosystem, philosophy about minimum feerates, etc: https://delvingbitcoin.org/t/changing-the-minimum-relay-feerate/1886
This PR is inspired by #13922 and #32959 to lower the minimum relay feerate in response to bitcoin's exchange rate changes in the last ~10 years. It lowers the default `-minrelaytxfee` and `-incrementalrelayfee`, and knocks `-blockmintxfee` down to the minimum nonzero setting. Also adds some tests for the settings and pulls in #32750.
The minimum relay feerate is a DoS protection rule, representing a price on the network bandwidth used to relay transactions that have no PoW. While relay nodes don't all collect fees, the assumption is that if nodes on the network use their resources to relay this transaction, it will reach a miner and the attacker's money will be spent once it is mined. The incremental relay feerate is similar: it's used to price the relay of replacement transactions (the additional fees need to cover the new transactions at this feerate) and evicted transactions (following a trim, the new mempool minimum feerate is the package feerate of what was removed + incremental).
Also note that many nodes on the network have elected to relay/mine lower feerate transactions. Miners (some say up to 85%) are choosing to mine these low feerate transactions instead of leaving block space unfilled, but these blocks have extremely poor compact block reconstruction rates with nodes that rejected or didn't hear about those transactions earlier.

While it wouldn't make sense to loosen DoS restrictions recklessly in response to these events, I think the current price is higher than necessary, and this motivates us changing the default soon. Since the minimum relay feerate defines an amount as too small based on what it costs the attacker, it makes sense to consider BTC's conversion rate to what resources you can buy in the "real world."
Going off of [this comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32959#issuecomment-3095260286) and [this comment](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33106#issuecomment-3142444090)
- Let's say an attacker wants to use/exhaust the network's bandwidth, and has the choice between renting resources from a commercial provider and getting the network to "spam" itself it by sending unconfirmed transactions. We'd like the latter to be more expensive than the former.
- The bandwidth for relaying a transaction across the network is roughly its serialized size (plus relay overhead) x number of nodes. A 1000vB transaction is 1000-4000B serialized. With 100k nodes, that's 0.1-0.4GB
- If the going rate for ec2 bandwidth is 10c/GB, that's like 1-4c per kvB of transaction data
- Then a 1000vB transaction should pay at least 4c
- $0.04 USD is 40 satoshis at 100k USD/BTC
- Baking in some margin for changes in USD/BTC conversion rate, number of nodes (and thus bandwidth), and commercial service costs, I think 50-100 satoshis is on the conservative end but in the right ballpark
- At least 97% of the recent sub-1sat/vB transactions would be accepted with a new threshold of 0.1sat/vB: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33106#issuecomment-3156213089
List of feerates that are changed and why:
- min relay feerate: significant conversion rate changes, see above
- incremental relay feerate: should follow min relay feerate, see above
- block minimum feerate: shouldn’t be above min relay feerate, otherwise the node accepts transactions it will never mine. I've knocked it down to the bare minimum of 1sat/kvB. Now that we no longer have coin age priority (removed in v0.15), I think we can leave it to the `CheckFeeRate` policy rule to enforce a minimum entry price, and the block assembly code should just fill up the block with whatever it finds in mempool.
List of feerates that are not changed and why:
- dust feerate: this feerate cannot be changed as flexibly as the minrelay feerate. A much longer record of low feerate transactions being mined is needed to motivate a decrease there.
- maxfeerate (RPC, wallet): I think the conversion rate is relevant as well, but out of scope for this PR
- minimum feerate returned by fee estimator: should be done later. In the past, we've excluded new policy defaults from fee estimation until we feel confident they represent miner policy (e.g. #9519). Also, the fee estimator itself doesn't have support for sub-1sat/vB yet.
- all wallet feerates (mintxfee, fallbackfee, discardfee, consolidatefeerate, WALLET_INCREMENTAL_RELAY_FEE, etc.): should be done later. Our standard procedure is to do wallet changes at least 1 release after policy changes.

This causes IPC binaries (bitcoin-node, bitcoin-gui) to be included
in releases.
The effect on CI is that this causes more depends builds to build IPC
binaries, but still the only build running functional tests with them
is the i686_multiprocess one.
Except for Windows.
