fuzz: txgraph: fix `real_is_optimal` flag propagation in `CommitStaging` (Sebastian Falbesoner) Pull request description: In the `txgraph` fuzz test, the `CommitStaging` step updates the `SimTxGraph` levels simply by erasing the front (=main) one in the `sims` vector, i.e. the staging level instance takes the place of the main level instance:83a2216f52/src/test/fuzz/txgraph.cpp (L668-L672)
This also includes the `real_is_optimal` flag (reflecting whether the corresponding real graph is known to be optimally linearized), without taking into account that this flag should only be set if _both_ levels before the commiting are optimal. E.g. in case of #33097, at this point the main level is not optimally linearized, while the staging level is, and due to the incorrect propagation of the latter the simulation incorrectly assumes that the main level is optimal after, leading to the assertion fail in the additional checks that are ran in this case[1]. Fix this by setting the flag in the resulting main level explicitly. This is done in a generic way, in case there will ever be more than two levels (not sure what is planned in this direction), a simpler alternative would be e.g. `main_optimal = sim[0].real_is_optimal && sim[1].real_is_optimal`. Fixes #33097. [1] see0aedf09ccc
for the printf-debug-session-clutter, if that is useful/interesting for anyone (most of the output turned out to be irrelevant to the actual cause of #33097, but it was an entertaining way to discover the interface and get a first glimpse of `TxGraph` internals as a cluster-mempool newbie).

What is Bitcoin Core?
Bitcoin Core connects to the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network to download and fully validate blocks and transactions. It also includes a wallet and graphical user interface, which can be optionally built.
Further information about Bitcoin Core is available in the doc folder.
License
Bitcoin Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See COPYING for more information or see https://opensource.org/license/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 during the generation of the build system) with: ctest
. 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.
These tests can be run (if the test dependencies are installed) with: build/test/functional/test_runner.py
(assuming build
is your build directory).
The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is tested on Windows, Linux, and macOS. The CI must pass on all commits before merge to avoid unrelated CI failures on new pull requests.
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.
