💬 Sjors commented on pull request "test: clarify timewarp grace period griefing attack":
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31725#issuecomment-3607255055)
[BIP54](https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0054.md) has been updated to use a 2 hour grace period rather than the `MAX_TIMEWARP = 600;` that we use.

If you change `MAX_TIMEWARP` to `7200` there's no way to make the test in this PR pass. I'll leave that as an exercise to the reader.

Note that the list of three bullet items boils down to _a single mistake_: using wall time for `nTime`. And as documented in the Delving post, that's not a hypothetical mistake. It's no longer a pro

> yes, that's also my understanding... the puzzling thing is that we're still having the memory leaks... so we're either missing some detail on this analysis, or the cause is related to something other than templates

I think at this point we've ruled out the obvious possible causes of leaks, and need to start debugging the issue more directly.

It would help to have some steps to reproduce. If someone can let me know what code to check out and build, and what commands to run that will show the

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33968#issuecomment-3607478808)
I guess it's _not_ a failure, as it only pops up when other issues flag, but it does get reported in CI as:

```
^---- ⚠️ Failure generated from lint-tests.py
doc/release-notes.md:379: Atack ==> Attack

which is sort of confusing

> Since https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33764 has been merged, this checkbox can now be ticked.

As I mentioned in that PR, neither the headers, neither the compiler version, or headers used, match Guix, so its not exactly testing something similar to how we build releases. That will be improved by #33775.

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33593#issuecomment-3607495972)
Given it's dropping the other CI, I think this PR should be completing #30210, dropping workarounds, updating any docs, and completing the migration.

That could be fixed by rewording, or changing the spacing, maybe something like:

re: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/33923#issuecomment-3566852691

> my main question is whether there are there protection mechanisms in place in case we try to create too many threads at once?

There aren't any currently, and making a lot of threads is probably the easiest way an IPC client could DoS the node.

It wouldn't be hard to create a limit though, if there is a use-case.

I do think creating 5 threads for each client that needs to receive templates sounds like overkill, and

Code review ACK 60f74dd315811db427797a606f4b5611a8c59993. New comments and renaming both seem great, and it is nice to get rid of the extract function. PR feels much more straightforward now.
💬 ryanofsky commented on pull request "mining: getCoinbase() returns struct instead of raw tx":
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33819#discussion_r2586011866)
In commit "mining: add new getCoinbaseTx() returning a struct" (60f74dd315811db427797a606f4b5611a8c59993)

Would be nice to avoid the move and treat `pblock` and `coinbase_tx_template` local variables more consistently. Would suggest defining `CoinbaseTxTemplate& coinbase_tx_template{pblocktemplate->m_coinbase_tx_template}` above similar to `pblock`.

Maybe good to assert witness_index is between 0 and the vout size. Obviously it should be, but good to check array bounds since the index is coming from a different place.
