This change is needed to prevent sync_blocks timeouts in the mempool_reorg
test after the sync_blocks update in the upcoming commit
"[qa] Change sync_blocks to pick smarter maxheight".
This change was initially suggested by Suhas Daftuar <sdaftuar@chaincode.com>
in https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/8680#r78209060
Pass parent wrapper directly instead of obfuscation key. This
makes it possible for other databases which re-use this code
to use other properties from the database.
Add a namespace dbwrapper_private for private functions to be used
only in dbwrapper.h/cpp and dbwrapper_tests.
Using throw() specifications in function signatures is not only
not required in C++, it is considered deprecated for
[various reasons](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1055387/throw-keyword-in-functions-signature).
It is not implemented by any of the common C++ compilers. The usage is
also inconsistent with the rest of the source code.
Remove the mistaken assumption that GetKey returning false signifies
an internal database issue. It will return false when the key cannot
be deserialized into the (char,uint256) stanza, which indicates
that the cursor has reached a different kind of key.
Fixes bug #7890 introduced in #7756.
This implements caching of ancestor state to each mempool entry, similar to
descendant tracking, but also including caching sigops-with-ancestors (as that
metric will be helpful to future code that implements better transaction
selection in CreatenewBlock).
The work limit served to prevent the descendant walking algorithm from doing
too much work by marking the parent transaction as dirty. However to implement
ancestor tracking, it's not possible to similarly mark those descendant
transactions as dirty without having to calculate them to begin with.
This commit removes the work limit altogether. With appropriate
chain limits (-limitdescendantcount) the concern about doing too much
work inside this function should be mitigated.
