πŸ“ mdqst opened a pull request: "fix: AutoFile position bug"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33263)
`AutoFile` doesn’t have `seek`, so I swapped it for `SetPos()` like Bitcoin Core does.
now moving around the file works correctly.

For the record, this is a similar attempt to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/32497#discussion_r2264546311 (probably used by an LLM for inspiration) - but the code was pushed from the GitHub UI and even included the code snipped markers.
@zkpepe, if you want to help, this isn't it, do the work instead of these cheap spams.

I had Claude implement changes from this PR with https://github.com/Sjors/bitcoin/tree/sv2 branch so I could use Sv2 for mining. Hoping to leave it hashing to see if we can't reduce the difficulty on TN4 to normalized levels.

I mined this block with it: https://mempool.space/testnet4/block/0000000000000000b92517e2fe1c4d68d8dcf5ad0068297355d7adfd867fe95c

> Unfortunately, the "opensource" plan used by the [Bitcoin organization](https://explore.transifex.com/bitcoin/) on Transifex has very limited functionality, and it is not guaranteed that updating the translation source file (as in #33193) won’t reset the "Reviewed" status for other strings.

Can we pay them some money to make that no longer a problem?

The execution will be stopped either way (in the master branch or in this PR).
This PR simply prevents the node from attempting to connect twice to the same address and port, and instead terminates it with a clear message β€” rather than the confusing one currently shown in the master branch.

> I guess the first err msg is from logging while the second is from init.cpp

Yes, that makes sense. I'll check again.

Ran `clang-format -dump-config -style=file:src/.clang-format > foo` on that commit and diffed *foo* against *src/.clang-format*. Only differences where added/elaborated settings from me running Clang-format 19. Makes sense to keep the format at the minimum version we support.

Even though `struct` & `class` can be used interchangeably in C++, only with different defaults for public/private, I think we might as well benefit from the fact that we have 2 concepts and use them to communicate whic

If you are running in the foreground, `InitError()` prints the message to the console. In `debug.log`, only a single entry is recorded.
This behavior applies to all `InitError()` calls.

Could you please check again? `InitError()` returns false, which should stop execution.

I would be fine with both as long as it's explicit. I still find the rationale that `struct` and `class` should be formatted similarly, it's harder for me to explain why `struct` is more like a for loop than a `class`...

I have no idea what these numbers mean, I checked same-line opening braces with
```bash
% grep -E '^\s*\bstruct\b\s+[^;{]*\{' --include="*.h" --include="*.cpp" -r src/ | wc -l

That's strange. On my machine, it's interrupted.
I tried running it by pointing the `-datadir` to an empty folder to see if that was the reason, but it also stopped (shown below).
Wouldn't the `feature_bind_extra` test fail if the node didn't stop?

Are you using a configuration file? Could some settings be affecting this?

I’m also testing on a Mac right now.
On both Linux and macOS ARM (Sequoia 15.5), the node stops as expected.
It’s curious that on your machine `InitError()` prints and logs the error but doesn’t actually stop the node.

Ideally, `p2p_leak_tx.py` would be rewritten so that it would deterministically exercise both branches, my impression is the that we only really care about the first case, that tx'es that haven't been inv'ed don't get leaked, but exercising the second case is a good validation of the assumptions of the test, and would have caught that the existing test was broken.

One solution is to set a mocktime as suggested by @enirox001 above so that no time passes and no inv's can be sent and the `getdat
