util: LineReader - Drop support for raw std::byte spans

This commit is a small internal code cleanup in Bitcoin Core. It removes the ability of a utility called LineReader to accept raw byte buffers, and updates two network components (Tor control connection and HTTP server) to use ordinary std…

util: Make LineReader consistently use string_views

This is a small internal code cleanup in Bitcoin Core. It rewrites a helper class called LineReader so it works directly with string data instead of converting bytes to strings back and forth. There is no user-facing change, no bug fix, an…

util: LineReader - Don't include newline and acknowledge single-char \r

This is a small code cleanup in Bitcoin Core's line-reading utility. It changes how the reader strips newline characters from input lines. The old code tried to remove both '\n' and '\r' from the end of a line after the fact; the new code …

qa: Avoid UTXO reuse between test functions

This is a minor fix inside Bitcoin Core's own test suite. It changes how test UTXOs are consumed so that different test functions don't accidentally reuse the same fake coin. It does not affect the live Bitcoin network, wallets, or node so…

lint: Require scripted-diff script to succeed

This is a small fix to a developer linting tool that checks whether automated 'scripted-diff' commits actually run their embedded scripts. Previously, if the script itself failed, the check could still report success because the success/fa…

qa: Use custom assert_greater_than() over naked assert

This is a tiny test-only cleanup that swaps a plain Python assert for a custom helper that prints better error messages when a test fails. It does not change any production code, network behavior, or security logic.

This commit changes how several Bitcoin Core test scripts clean up after themselves. Previously, cleanup code ran even when a test failed, which could hide the real failure behind extra error messages. Now cleanup is skipped if the test ra…

rpc+bitcoin-tx: Specify correct type for ParseFixedPoint()

This change tightens two low-level math helper functions so they only accept whole-number (integer) types. Previously, a non-integer type could slip through and silently produce wrong min/max values because the generic fallback for numeric…
