txospenderindex: disable bloom filters to optimize disk usage

This change is a straightforward performance and disk-space optimization. It adds an option to disable LevelDB bloom filters for database instances that only scan through data with iterators, because bloom filters only help when looking up…

fuzz: add coins_view_stacked fuzz harness to test concurrent leveldb reads

This commit adds a new automated test (a fuzzing harness) for Bitcoin Core's coin database view. It does not change any production code, user-facing behavior, or network protocol. It only adds a test that exercises reading the LevelDB-back…

coins: add ready flag to InputToFetch

This is a preparatory code change for future multi-threaded coin fetching in Bitcoin Core. It adds a synchronization flag (std::atomic_flag) around a shared data field so that worker threads can safely signal when they have finished writin…

doc: update CoinsViewOverlay docstring to describe parallel fetching

This commit only updates a code comment (docstring) in a header file. It explains how a new parallel coin-fetching mechanism works. No actual code logic was changed, so it cannot introduce or fix a security vulnerability on its own.

coins: fetch inputs in parallel

This commit changes how Bitcoin Core fetches transaction input data (the 'coins' spent by transactions in a block). Instead of doing all lookups one-by-one on the main thread, it now submits the work to a thread pool. The change is describ…

validation: collect block inputs in CoinsViewOverlay before ConnectBlock
