Antoine Riard b7b9f6e4ce Remove p2pEnabled from Chain interface
RPC server starts in warmup mode, it can't
process yet calls, then follows connection manager
initialization and finally RPC server get out of
warmup mode. RPC calls shouldn't be able to get
P2P disabled errors because once we initialize
g_connman it's not unset until shutdown, after
RPC server has been stopped.

Internal c++ interfaces

The following interfaces are defined here:

  • Chain — used by wallet to access blockchain and mempool state. Added in #14437, #14711, #15288, and #10973.

  • ChainClient — used by node to start & stop Chain clients. Added in #14437.

  • Node — used by GUI to start & stop bitcoin node. Added in #10244.

  • Wallet — used by GUI to access wallets. Added in #10244.

  • Handler — returned by handleEvent methods on interfaces above and used to manage lifetimes of event handlers.

  • Init — used by multiprocess code to access interfaces above on startup. Added in #10102.

The interfaces above define boundaries between major components of bitcoin code (node, wallet, and gui), making it possible for them to run in different processes, and be tested, developed, and understood independently. These interfaces are not currently designed to be stable or to be used externally.
