This commit implements a state update log which is intended the record
the relevant information for each state transition on disk. For each
state transition a delta should be written recording the new state. A
new method is also provided which is able to retrieve a previous
channel state based on a state update #.
At the moment no measures has been taken to optimize the space
utilization of each update on disk. There are several low-hanging
fruits which can be addressed at a later point. Ultimately the update
log itself should be implemented with an append-only flat file at the
storage level. In any case, the high level abstraction should be able
to maintained independent of differences in the on-disk format itself.
This commit modifies the elkrem root derivation for each newly created
channel. First a master elkrem root is derived from the rood HD seed
generated from private wallet data. Next, a HKDF is used with the
secret being the master elkrem root.
This commit fixes a bug in the lockTimeToSequence function when mapping
a block-based relative lock time to the proper sequence number.
Applying the mask isn’t necessary since the values are expected to be
blow 65K blocks.
This commit adds glide integration in order to make lnd builds fully
reproducible. Rather than using “go get” users should now manually pull down
the repo, use glide to fetch+install the dependancies, then manually install
all related binaries.
With this change we no longer have to chase dependancies making breaking API
changes under us. We can manually update the managed dependancies once a new
stable release of a defendant package is released.
Additionally, reproducible builds are a strong requirement in order to securely
distribute future major releases of lnd.
We no longer track HTLC’s by their r-hash within the log into the
index, as we may have multiple HTLC’s that can be redeemed by the same
pre-image. Instead we now use a separate index which is keyed by a
log-index.
Additionally, the SettleHTLC method now also returns the index of the
HTLC being settled which allows the remote party to quickly locate the
HTLC within their log.
This commit also introduces a few trace/debug log messages which will
likely be pruned in the near future
The derivation is current bed on an HKDF invocation using our private
key as the secret, and the node’s channel multi-sig key as the salt.
This scheme allows us to derive the key on the fly given data known to
only us and the remote node.
The current derivation is just a place-holder and will be re-visited at
a later time.
This commit updates the previous HTLC and commitment scripts to their
current latest evolution.
The HTLC scripts have been optimized for space savings, the
functionality itself has remained relatively unchanged. A trade off was
made to add additional bytes into the sigScript in order to avoid
extraneous CHECKSIG’s. The rationale is that an extra 1-2 bytes in the
sigScript to guide execution, are worthwhile since they’re in the
witness, and witness data may be pruned in the near future.
The primary change is within the commitment transaction itself. Instead
of using revocation hashes, we now use signature based revocation. This
saves space in the Script, and optimizes away an extra hashing
operation. Elkrem/shachain is still used but, we now use the pre-images
to homomorphically derive a public key which the other party will be
able to sign with, once we disclose the pre-image itself.
Finally, we have switched to using SHA-256 everywhere uniformly for
both revocation hashes, and payment hashes. The rationale is that the
output of ripemd160 is too small for modern security margins, and that
other coins/chains are more likely to have SHA-256 implemented, than
ripemd160.
A set of tests has also been included which contain (mostly) exhaustive
tests of all possible redemption paths for both commitment and HTLC.
