New functional test coverage of tx download was added by #19988,
but `with p2p_lock` is redundant for some tests with `wait_until`
test helper, already guaranteeing test lock tacking.
Maintaining up to 100000 INVs per peer is excessive, as that is far more
than fits in a typical mempool.
Also disable the "overload" penalty for PF_RELAY peers.
This removes most transaction request logic from net_processing, and
replaces it with calls to a global TxRequestTracker object.
The major changes are:
* Announcements from outbound (and whitelisted) peers are now always
preferred over those from inbound peers. This used to be the case for the
first request (by delaying the first request from inbound peers), and
a bias afters. The 2s delay for requests from inbound peers still exists,
but after that, if viable outbound peers remain for any given transaction,
they will always be tried first.
* No more hard cap of 100 in flight transactions per peer, as there is less
need for it (memory usage is linear in the number of announcements, but
independent from the number in flight, and CPU usage isn't affected by it).
Furthermore, if only one peer announces a transaction, and it has over 100
in flight and requestable already, we still want to request it from them.
The cap is replaced with an additional 2s delay (possibly combined with the
existing 2s delays for inbound connections, and for txid peers when wtxid
peers are available).
Includes functional tests written by Marco Falke and Antoine Riard.
substitutes "for x in range(N):" by "for _ in range(N):"
indicates to the reader that a block is just repeated N times, and
that the loop counter is not used in the body
Using both txid and wtxid-based relay with peers means that we could sometimes
download the same transaction twice, if announced via two different hashes from
different peers.
Use a heuristic of delaying txid-peer-getdata requests by 2 seconds, if we have
at least one wtxid-based peer.
We should eventually request a transaction from all peers that announce
it (assuming we never receive it).
We should prefer requesting from outbound peers over inbound peers.
Enforce the max tx requests in flight, and the eventual expiry of those
requests.
