This commit moves the responsibility for closing local and remote force
closes in the database from the chain watcher to the channel arbitrator.
We do this because we previously would close the channel in the
database, before sending the event to the channel arbitrator. This could
lead to a situation where the channel was marked closed, but the channel
arbitrator didn't receive the event before shutdown. As we don't listen
for chain events for channels that are closed, those channels would be
stuck in the pending close state forever, as the channel arbitrator
state machine wouldn't progress.
We fix this by letting the ChannelArbitrator close the channel in the
database. After the contract resolutions are logged (in the state
callback before transitioning to StateContractClosed) we mark the
channel closed in the database. This way we make sure that it is marked
closed only if the resolutions have been successfully persisted.
This commit removes the state callback, and instead logs the contract
resolutions directly after receiving the unilateral close event. The
resolutions won't change so there's not really necessary to wait to log
them, and this greatly simplifies the code.
This commit moves the logic handling responses to
locally-initiated payments to be asynchronous. The
reordering of operations into handleLocalDispatch
brings a serious performance burden to the switch's
main event loop. However, the at-most once semantics
of circuit map and idempotency of cleanup methods
allows concurrent operations to run in parallel.
Prior to this commit, the async_payments_benchmark
would timeout due to the forcibly serial nature of
the prior design. With this change, there is no
perceptible difference in the benchmark OMM, even
though we've added two extra db calls.
Composes the new payment status helper methods such that
we only require one db txn per state transition. This
also allows us to remove the exclusive lock from the
control tower, and enable more concurrent requests.
This commit splits FetchPaymentStatus and
UpdatePaymentStatus, such that they each invoke
helper methods that can be composed into different
db txns. This enables us to improve performance on
send/receive, as we can remove the exclusive lock
from the control tower, and allow concurrent calls
to utilize Batch more effectively.
In this commit, we introduce support for querying the database for invoices
that occurred within a specific add index range. The query format includes an
index to start with and a limit on the number of returned results.
