This commit is the final step in making the link unaware of invoices. It
now purely offers the htlc to the invoice registry and follows
instructions from the invoice registry about how and when to respond to
the htlc.
The change also fixes a bug where upon restart, hodl htlcs were
subjected to the invoice minimum cltv delta requirement again. If the
block height has increased in the mean while, the htlc would be canceled
back.
Furthermore the invoice registry interaction is aligned between link and
contract resolvers.
This commit modifies the invoice registry to handle invoices for which
the preimage is not known yet (hodl invoices). In that case, the
resolution channel passed in from links and resolvers is stored until we
either learn the preimage or want to cancel the htlc.
This commit detaches signaling the invoice registry that an htlc was
locked in from the actually settling of the htlc.
It is a preparation for hodl invoices.
This function will be used in the switch to retrieve the channel point for a link,
allowing the switch to retrieve individual channels from the database.
In this commit, we modify the InvoiceDatabase slightly to allow the link
to record what the final payment about for an invoice was. It may be the
case that the invoice actually had no specified value, or that the payer
paid more than necessary. As a result, it's important that our on-disk
records properly reflect this.
To fix this issue, the SettleInvoice method now also accepts the final
amount paid.
Fixes#856.
In this commit, we modify the existing logic that would attempt to read
the min CLTV information from the invoice directly. With this route, we
avoid any sort of DB index modifications, as this information is already
stored within the payment request, which is already available to the
outside callers. By modifying the InvoiceDatabase interface, we avoid
having to make the switch aware of what the "primary" chain is.
In this commit, we extend the existing HtlcSatifiesPolicy method to also
accept timelock and height information. This is required as an upcoming
commit will fix an existing bug in the forwarding logic wherein we use
the time lock policies of the incoming node rather than that of the
outgoing node.
In this commit, we fix a very old, lingering bug within the link. When
accepting an HTLC we are meant to validate the fee against the
constraints of the *outgoing* link. This is due to the fact that we're
offering a payment transit service on our outgoing link. Before this
commit, we would use the policies of the *incoming* link. This would at
times lead to odd routing errors as we would go to route, get an error
update and then route again, repeating the process.
With this commit, we'll properly use the incoming link for timelock
related constraints, and the outgoing link for fee related constraints.
We do this by introducing a new HtlcSatisfiesPolicy method in the link.
This method should return a non-nil error if the link can carry the HTLC
as it satisfies its current forwarding policy. We'll use this method now
at *forwarding* time to ensure that we only forward to links that
actually accept the policy. This fixes a number of bugs that existed
before that could result in a link accepting an HTLC that actually
violated its policy. In the case that the policy is violated for *all*
links, we take care to return the error returned by the *target* link so
the caller can update their sending accordingly.
In this commit, we also remove the prior linkControl channel in the
channelLink. Instead, of sending a message to update the internal link
policy, we'll use a mutex in place. This simplifies the code, and also
adds some necessary refactoring in anticipation of the next follow up
commit.
In this commit, add a new argument to the SendMessage method to allow
callers to request that the method block until the message has been sent
on the socket to the remote peer.
In this commit, we extend the switch as is, to record details
concerning settled payment circuits. To do this, we introduce a new
interface to the package: the ForwardingLog. This is a tiny interface
that simply lets us abstract away the details of the storage backing of
the forwarding log.
Each time we receive a successful HTLC settle, we’ll log the full
details (chans, fees, time) as a pending forwarding log entry. Every 15
seconds, we’ll then batch flush out these entries to disk. When we’re
exiting, we’ll try to flush out all entries to ensure everything gets
recorded to disk.
In this commit, we fix an existing bug that would result in some
payments getting “stuck”. This would happen if one side restarted
before the channel was fully locked in. In this case, since upon
re-connection, the link will get added to the switch with a *short
channel ID of zero*. If A then tries to make a multi-hop payment
through B, B will fail to forward the payment, as it’ll mistakenly
think that the payment originated from a local-subsystem as the channel
ID is zero. A short channel ID of zero is used to map local payments
back to their caller.
With fix this by allowing the funding manager to dynamically update the
short channel ID of a link after it discovers the short channel ID.
In this commit, we fix a second instance of reported “stuck” payments
by users.
In this commit, we add a new method to the ChanneLink interface:
EligibleToForward. This method allows a link to be added to the switch,
but in an intermediate state which indicates that it isn’t yet ready to
forward any incoming HTLC’s.
In this commit we modify the primary InvoiceRegistry interface within
the package to instead return a direct value for LookupInvoice rather
than a pointer. This fixes an existing race condition wherein a caller
could modify or read the value of the returned invoice.
In this commit, we’ve modified the link and the switch to start to use
the new mailBox in place of the existing synchronous message send
directly into the link’s upstream/downstream channels. With his change,
we no longer need to spawn a new goroutine each time an HTLC needs to
be forwarded, or a user payment is initiated.
This commit adds a new method to the ChannelLink interface which is
meant to allow outside sub-system to update the forwarding policy of a
channel. This can be triggered either by a new RPC method, or
automatically by some sort of control system which seeks to optimize
fee revenue, or block off channels, etc.
This commit gives the start for making the htlc manager and htlc switch
testable. The testability of htlc switch have been achieved by mocking
all external subsystems. The concrete list of updates:
1. create standalone package for htlc switch.
2. add "ChannelLink" interface, which represent the previous htlc link.
3. add "Peer" interface, which represent the remote node inside our
subsystem.
4. add htlc switch config to htlc switch susbystem, which stores the
handlers which are not elongs to any of the above interfaces.
With this commit we are able test htlc switch even without having
the concrete implementation of Peer, ChannelLink structures, they will
be added later.
