9 2017-12-18 04:04:30 0|fanquake|It's an upstream issue with Qt, and won't affect running core. Are you running windows?

11 2017-12-18 04:58:15 0|mryandao|quick question, where can I find code on how AES encryption is applied to the encrypted private keys in wallet.dat?
12 2017-12-18 04:58:47 0|mryandao|alternatively, a grep regex will be sufficient ;)
13 2017-12-18 04:58:53 0|phantomcircuit|mryandao, maybe just in the code
14 2017-12-18 04:59:09 0|mryandao|yeah, I mean in the core source.
15 2017-12-18 05:01:27 0|phantomcircuit|mryandao, src/wallet/crypter.cpp

17 2017-12-18 05:52:55 0|echeveria|has there been any discussion recently about improving the methods for low-latency GBT updates?
18 2017-12-18 05:53:56 0|echeveria|the pool software that's publicly available at the moment seems to use a variety of methods for detecting when there's a new block, -blocknotify calling a script that sends an interrupt to send an RPC call, polling the RPC in a tight loop, or even attempting to build an empty block template from the ZMQ socket raw block output. the RPC interface has a long polling option but that's pretty hacky as well.
19 2017-12-18 06:11:35 0|echeveria|most ideally there'd be a mode for the ZMQ socket which emits a GetBlockTemplate response on UpdateTip, and at some configurable interval. eliminates any polling misses, any latency from spawming a new shell just to send an interrupt.

23 2017-12-18 06:51:09 0|echeveria|to exemplify that, CreateNewBlock() takes 26ms, sending it down RPC takes 90ms.
24 2017-12-18 07:48:09 0|jonasschnelli|echeveria: maybe have a look at https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/9919?
25 2017-12-18 07:48:47 0|jonasschnelli|Why is the longpolling hacky?
26 2017-12-18 08:38:43 0|echeveria|jonasschnelli: long polling is really difficult to deal with in a reliable way. there's software out there which calls GBT every 100ms, holding cs_main for who knows what portion of the time; as preferable to using long polling.
27 2017-12-18 12:07:34 0|promag|echeveria: jonasschnelli: both zmq notification and long polling have a problem: missed data
28 2017-12-18 12:08:34 0|promag|if you need reliability IMO you have to poll
29 2017-12-18 12:11:12 0|echeveria|promag: if you're losing ZMQ frames with a unix domain socket you've got other issues. there's sequence numbers in the messages that Bitcoin Core emits too, so you should be able to detect if you're getting messages lost.
30 2017-12-18 12:12:05 0|promag|I know that
31 2017-12-18 12:12:56 0|promag|just saying that generally ZMQ is not reliable, you have to work around the reliability
32 2017-12-18 12:24:50 0|echeveria|at any rate, the main uncomfortable feature is that JSON is still the most logical output.

41 2017-12-18 18:28:12 0|nedn|thanks! "brew link libtool" fixed it for me
42 2017-12-18 19:25:29 0|jonasschnelli|In SignCompact (message signing), we do: vchSig[0] = 27 + rec + (fCompressed ? 4 : 0); can someone explain that? There is no specs?
43 2017-12-18 19:25:55 0|jonasschnelli|Is that just appending the recovery id with a flag if its compressed or not in 4 bits?
44 2017-12-18 19:28:42 0|sipa|yes
45 2017-12-18 19:29:24 0|sipa|the + 27 was just a random number to prevent it being confusable with public keys
46 2017-12-18 19:29:37 0|sipa|the +4 was added later for compressed pubkeys
47 2017-12-18 19:29:50 0|sipa|we'll probably need to extend it further for P2WPKH and P2SH-P2WPKH
