_response to https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33855#issuecomment-3526237850_

@alexanderwiederin opening this thread for easier focus. Are you suggesting we 1) implement `btck_block_tree_entry_equals` with a hash equality check, or 2) to not expose `btck_block_tree_entry_equals` at all and let the user define it however they want (such as using hash equality), or 3) something else?

If 1), I don't see the benefit? Pointer comparisons are faster, and are conceptually correct, and what

> It's a shame that in this PR we have to have the annotation printed many times, one per job, as I think it might drown out other notices.

Agree, but I think we can use warning notices to bubble up more important ones.

It can be used via the API, e.g. https://github.com/maflcko/DrahtBot/blob/6c91378116516ca5974d78a4e0c5c495b38acf95/webhook_feature

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33792#issuecomment-3527310703)
Good question, I guess it is a bit obscure. Let me elaborate. So, when we receive the `VERSION` message, its handling (inside the `if (msg_type == NetMsgType::VERSION) {`) currently goes like this:

```
if (...)
A
if (...)
MakeAndPushMessage()
if (...)
B
if (...)
MakeAndPushMessage()
if (...)
some stuff that better be avoided for private broadcast connections
```

For private broadcast we don't want to push any extra messages. To do that I took the approach to

Hmm, wait! `m_addrman.Good()` need not be earlier, it is one of the "some stuff that better be avoided". Then this can be simplified? :bulb:

ACK aef40b93cf057d2a27d61881b0858d491206bcd3 -- matches what I was thinking

Adding some assertions in `Ref::Ref(Ref&&)` triggers when I run the fuzz binary over some txgraph corpus data I generated previously, so https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33862#discussion_r2519205585 doesn't seem like a real problem.

> bikeshedding about the names of functions is not a good use of anyone's time here.

I've been tricked many times by misnamed methods. If you think the old name is good, or the new name is worse, or the new comment isn't adding anything, I can empathize with that. But nobody is forcing us to review this. I personally do it because I want some progress with the origin

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33867#discussion_r2523160503)
I can't seem to reproduce that, e.g. these tests all pass for me, indicating that an empty or null path resolves to `fs::path()`, which then expands to `fs::current_path()`? How did you get that fatal error?

```cpp
BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(fs::PathFromString(""), fs::path());
BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(fs::PathFromString({nullptr, 0}), fs::path());
BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(fs::canonical(fs::path()), fs::current_path());
```

> How did you get that fatal error?

It is hidden in the error message, but it says "cannot make absolute path".

Did you actually call the full kernel function here, including:

```cpp
fs::path abs_data_dir{fs::absolute(fs::PathFromString({data_dir, data_dir_len}))};
fs::create_directories(abs_data_dir);
```

In any case, even if it doesn't crash, I wonder what the valid meaning is here, of passing an empty string?

(https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/33867#discussion_r2523230856)
In what situation would `data_dir == nullptr` and yet `data_dir_len` does not equal zero? In other-words, if data_dir is null and data_dir_len is `1` then continue?

Closing this. Will pick it up again as part of a larger directional push to handle versioning in the kernel.

Nice catch, we can simply check `hd_chain.nVersion` instead of having `auto hd_chain_version{legacy_data.GetHDChain().nVersion};`. We could also add an assert to ensure these two values are the same.

No null check because we always expect it to succeed given how the harness is built, but will add a check just to avoid UB.

logging the block hash here is not as straightforward as it looks, because we would have to know which of the headers failed, and `ProcessNewBlockHeaders` doesn't return that info:
So I think we would either have to change the interface of `ProcessNewBlockHeaders`, or we would have to add a loop over `headers` (`CBlockHeader`) here, lookup each header in our block index and check whether it's `BLOCK_FAILED_MASK`.

I'm on vacation this week, will look into it more next week.
