new update of the pr with network limits
more debug options:
discarding downloaded blocks all or after given height.
trying to trigger the locking errors.
debug levels polished/tuned to sane values.
debug/logging improved.
warning: this pr should be correct code, but it could make
an existing (in master version) locking error appear more often.
it's a race on the list (map) of peers, e.g. between closing/deleting
them versus working on them in net-limit sleep in sending chunk.
the bug is not in this code/this pr, but in the master version.
the locking problem of master will be fixed in other pr.
problem is ub, and in practice is seems to usually cause program abort
(tested on debian stable with updated gcc). see --help for option
to add sleep to trigger the error faster.
Update of the PR with network limits
works very well for all speeds
(but remember that low download speed can stop upload
because we then slow down downloading of blockchain
requests too)
more debug options
fixed pedantic warnings in our code
should work again on Mac OS X and FreeBSD
fixed warning about size_t
tested on Debian, Ubuntu, Windows(testing now)
TCP options and ToS (QoS) flag
FIXED peer number limit
FIXED some spikes in ingress/download
FIXED problems when other up and down limit
commands and options for network limiting
works very well e.g. for 50 KiB/sec up and down
ToS (QoS) flag
peer number limit
TODO some spikes in ingress/download
TODO problems when other up and down limit
added "otshell utils" - simple logging (with colors, text files channels)
Use copied value of seed node index during thread creation, not
reference.
- fixes segfault
Use boost:🧵:try_join_until() instead of an atomic flag result
variable for each thread.
Add and handle interrupt for thread timeout.
- fixes segfault where a thread exceeds requested timeout and tries to
assign results to a referenced, but now out-of-scope, variable in
the main thread.
1b46226 std::atomic_flag has no copy/move constructor, can't have a vector (Thomas Winget)
df53c0a small typo in previous commit (Thomas Winget)
4a53898 DNS seed timeout and fallback (Thomas Winget)
Also implemented rudimentary IPv6 support, but commented it out because
it's not widely supported by ISPs for now, and thus is not currently
supported by Monero.
On 32-bit MinGW-w64, time_t is int32_t. The existing code was serializing
time_t directly and implicitly assuming that time_t is int64_t. This commit
formalizes that assumption by serializing int64_t directly and casting to
time_t where appropriate.
Thanks go to greatwolf for reporting this issue.

Per my reading this change makes sense since a subset of the exclusive
peers could be priority peers. Priority peers that are not exclusive
will not get loaded, and priority peers that *are* exclusive will get
special treatment. Prior to this change it looks like priority peers
were silently ignored when exclusive peers were provided.
