Gemfile: - Upgrade to Jekyll 3.x (3.0.1 tested). This brings several new features I want to use, most notably *collections* which allows us to add blog-like collections. I've converted the `_releases` and `_alerts` pages into collections, although their plugins are maintained to handle the Download and Active Alert features. - Upgrade to latest Kramdown. - Lock Less at 2.4.0. This prevents breaking our Less plugin. Jekyll 3.x provides native support for SCSS, so we may want to switch to that in time. - Lock HTML Proofer at 2.1.0. The most recent version was taking forever to check our pages (I never actually got it to complete). I'll look into it when I get more time. Makefile: - New `make clean` command. Jekyll 3.x by default attempts to do incremental rebuilds. The new `jekyll clean` command cleans up the metadata necessary for than so that a full build is performed, and this new `make clean` command is a wrapper around it so that we automatically do full rebuilds in the relevant cases. Note: our plugins aren't fully compatible with the incremental rebuilds, but I'd like to fix that in the future. - Remove WEBrick hack to enable previewing with default URL paths (/ instead of /index.html). - Filter out compliants from Rouge README.md: - Now that Alerts (_alerts) are part of a collection, the file names are no longer parsed for dates, so instructions on adding the date to the YAML metadata have been added. _alerts/*: - Now that alerts are part of a collection, the file names are no longer parsed to provide dates, so a `date:` field has been added to the YAML metadata. _config.yml: - Some variables renamed per upgrade instructions. - Switched from old default syntax highlighter Pygments to new default Rouge. I tried to use Rouge options to keep new output as similar to old output as possible to making diffing easy, but Rouge adds extra CSS class info. - Move `_alerts` and `_releases` into Jekyll 3.x "collections", which provide the organizational features we were using plugins to manange. I haven't removed the old plugins because we still use some of their features (alerts.rb provides active issue and banner features; releases.rb provides info to Download page) - _layouts/* can no longer provide default global metadata; that is now provided in the new `defaults:` section in _config.yml. _layouts/*: - Default metadata can no longer be provided in the layout files for collections, so I've removed it and left a message to see _config.yml. _plugins/*: - Remove filter_for.rb. It's completely broken on Jekyll 3.x because of changes to Liquid which prevent adding new arguments to the inherited Liquid::For class. Existing uses of filter_for have been migrated to built-in for loops prefaced by sorts. - Remove remove-html-extension.rb: at it said in the comments, this was a temporary hack to get us to Jekyll 3.0. _releases/*: - Rename all the files: prefix a v to the file name so the output html (e.g. v10.0.0.html) is the same as the source filename (e.g. v10.0.0.md). This is necessary to migrate them to a Jekyll collection. - Remove %v from titles: we have to explicitly set the title, like we used to. Again required for migration to collections. _templates/events.html & en/rss/events.rss: - Sort events by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than filter_for en/alerts.html & en/rss/alerts.rss: - Sort alerts by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than filter_for en/bitcoin-core/index.md & en/version-history.html & en/rss/releases.rss: - Sort alerts by date and then loop with regular for loop rather than filter_for

Bitcoin Core version 0.11.1 is now available from:
|
|
|
|
<https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.11.1/>
|
|
|
|
This is a new minor version release, bringing security fixes. It is recommended
|
|
to upgrade to this version as soon as possible.
|
|
|
|
Please report bugs using the issue tracker at github:
|
|
|
|
<https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues>
|
|
|
|
Upgrading and downgrading
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
How to Upgrade
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
If you are running an older version, shut it down. Wait until it has completely
|
|
shut down (which might take a few minutes for older versions), then run the
|
|
installer (on Windows) or just copy over /Applications/Bitcoin-Qt (on Mac) or
|
|
bitcoind/bitcoin-qt (on Linux).
|
|
|
|
Downgrade warning
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Because release 0.10.0 and later makes use of headers-first synchronization and
|
|
parallel block download (see further), the block files and databases are not
|
|
backwards-compatible with pre-0.10 versions of Bitcoin Core or other software:
|
|
|
|
* Blocks will be stored on disk out of order (in the order they are
|
|
received, really), which makes it incompatible with some tools or
|
|
other programs. Reindexing using earlier versions will also not work
|
|
anymore as a result of this.
|
|
|
|
* The block index database will now hold headers for which no block is
|
|
stored on disk, which earlier versions won't support.
|
|
|
|
If you want to be able to downgrade smoothly, make a backup of your entire data
|
|
directory. Without this your node will need start syncing (or importing from
|
|
bootstrap.dat) anew afterwards. It is possible that the data from a completely
|
|
synchronised 0.10 node may be usable in older versions as-is, but this is not
|
|
supported and may break as soon as the older version attempts to reindex.
|
|
|
|
This does not affect wallet forward or backward compatibility. There are no
|
|
known problems when downgrading from 0.11.x to 0.10.x.
|
|
|
|
Notable changes
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
Fix buffer overflow in bundled upnp
|
|
------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Bundled miniupnpc was updated to 1.9.20151008. This fixes a buffer overflow in
|
|
the XML parser during initial network discovery.
|
|
|
|
Details can be found here: http://talosintel.com/reports/TALOS-2015-0035/
|
|
|
|
This applies to the distributed executables only, not when building from source or
|
|
using distribution provided packages.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, upnp has been disabled by default. This may result in a lower
|
|
number of reachable nodes on IPv4, however this prevents future libupnpc
|
|
vulnerabilities from being a structural risk to the network
|
|
(see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6795).
|
|
|
|
Test for LowS signatures before relaying
|
|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Make the node require the canonical 'low-s' encoding for ECDSA signatures when
|
|
relaying or mining. This removes a nuisance malleability vector.
|
|
|
|
Consensus behavior is unchanged.
|
|
|
|
If widely deployed this change would eliminate the last remaining known vector
|
|
for nuisance malleability on SIGHASH_ALL P2PKH transactions. On the down-side
|
|
it will block most transactions made by sufficiently out of date software.
|
|
|
|
Unlike the other avenues to change txids on transactions this
|
|
one was randomly violated by all deployed bitcoin software prior to
|
|
its discovery. So, while other malleability vectors where made
|
|
non-standard as soon as they were discovered, this one has remained
|
|
permitted. Even BIP62 did not propose applying this rule to
|
|
old version transactions, but conforming implementations have become
|
|
much more common since BIP62 was initially written.
|
|
|
|
Bitcoin Core has produced compatible signatures since a28fb70e in
|
|
September 2013, but this didn't make it into a release until 0.9
|
|
in March 2014; Bitcoinj has done so for a similar span of time.
|
|
Bitcoinjs and electrum have been more recently updated.
|
|
|
|
This does not replace the need for BIP62 or similar, as miners can
|
|
still cooperate to break transactions. Nor does it replace the
|
|
need for wallet software to handle malleability sanely[1]. This
|
|
only eliminates the cheap and irritating DOS attack.

Minimum relay fee default increase
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The default for the `-minrelaytxfee` setting has been increased from `0.00001`
|
|
to `0.00005`.
|
|
|
|
This is necessitated by the current transaction flooding, causing
|
|
outrageous memory usage on nodes due to the mempool ballooning. This is a
|
|
temporary measure, bridging the time until a dynamic method for determining
|
|
this fee is merged (which will be in 0.12).
|
|
|
|
(see https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/6793, as well as the 0.11
|
|
release notes, in which this value was suggested)
