💬 vasild commented on pull request "ci: detect outbound internet traffic generated while running tests":
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31349#issuecomment-2591928909)
`bbfc58a0af...69e076664d`: drop the tests changes from this PR because they were already merged via https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31646. So here remains a CI change to detect future regressions.

If people want to run this manually, outside of the CI in a way that causes false positive (discussion above), what about something like this:

> Having the Mining interface should only make it easier to implement support for other protocols because they can use it without needing to interact with validation code.

Which can be seen in action in RPC code that calls these methods.

>> An interface that pushes the new work itself, rather than a notification, would not have this issue.

> `waitNext` is providing an interface that pushes the new work itself. A reference to the new block is in the return value.

In testnet3 and testnet4 the difficulty depends on the timestamp. After 20 minutes it drops to 1. These methods derive difficulty using the current timestamp.

7f88af8b: when `invalidateblock` is called multiple times, we would need to clear the `BLOCK_FAILED_VALID` from previous iteration so that both `BLOCK_FAILED_VALID` and `BLOCK_FAILED_CHILD` don't happen together on the same block. ex: [this situation](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/35bf426e02210c1bbb04926f4ca2e0285fbfcd11/test/functional/rpc_invalidateblock.py#L91)

I'd say that test-only docs shouldn't be put in the real RPC docs for mainnet. If someone is running on t3/t4 they should be aware of the rules already. And if they are not aware, "if found now" doesn't help to explain the rules to them.
⚠️ fxcoudert opened an issue: "The 28.1 release is not tagged in github"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31660)
### Is there an existing issue for this?

- [x] I have searched the existing issues

### Current behaviour

In GitHub releases, 28.0 is still marked as latest. We are holding from updating in Homebrew until this is resolved: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/204066

### Expected behaviour

28.1 should be marked as latest release, to confirm it is authentic.

### Steps to reproduce

1. Go to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
2. Observe that latest release is 28.0

📝 hebasto opened a pull request: "depends: Always set `CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=None` globally"
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31661)
This PR fixes a regression for the `libevent` package introduced in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/29835.

Instead of configuring `CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=None` per package, set it globally to ensure consistent behaviour. This prevents packages with a default build type (usually "Release") from overriding our build type-specific flags, such as `-O2` or `-O1 -g`.

For packages that do not set a default build type, this change does not affect their behaviour.

The first commit a7d43645ea353021b2143407ab06336105c82434 changes `coinbaseMaxAdditionalWeight` in the Mining interface to `blockReservedWeight`. This decouples it from the Stratum v2 concept of `CoinbaseOutputDataSize` which is strictly limited to the outputs added:

> The maximum additional serialized bytes which the pool will add in coinbase transaction outputs

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/31657#discussion_r1916282815)
Does this env var work for podman as well? Regardless, I am wondering if it was easier to just pass `--platform` to `docker build` in `./ci/test/02_run_container.sh` (and possibly `docker run`, if needed)?

Something like:

```bash
CI_IMAGE_PLATFORM="" # native platform (default)
```

Alternatively, with the added benefit of possibly supporting macos (see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/31344#issuecomment-2493612110 (expand "docker setup")):

```bash
CI_IMAGE_PLATFORM="--os

nit: I think you can now remove the redundant arch here? (same for the others)

Maybe add:

> This accounts for the block header, var_int encoding of the transaction count and a minimally viable coinbase transaction. It adds an additional safety margin, because even with a thorough understanding of block serialization, it's easy to make a costly mistake when trying to squeeze every last byte.
