In this commit, we update the path finding logic to
ignore a channel if the HTLC value (including the fees
at the point) exceeds the max HTLC value (if set) of the
link.
Since the MaxHTLC field was recently added to the ChannelEdgePolicy struct,
and the Flags field was broken into ChannelFlags and MessageFlags, the
test edge policies should be updated accordingly.
In this commit, we rename the new `MaxHtlc` field to `MaxHtlcMsat`. We
do this in order to adhere to the new practice to suffix each amount
related field with their proper unit.
In this commit, we set a default max HTLC in the forwarding
policies of newly open channels.
The ForwardingPolicy's MaxHTLC field (added in this commit)
will later be used to decide whether an HTLC satisfies our policy before
forwarding it.
To ensure the ForwardingPolicy's MaxHTLC default matches the max HTLC
advertised in the ChannelUpdate sent out for this channel, we also add
a MaxPendingAmount() function to the lnwallet.Channel.
In this commit, we implement the full RouterServer as specified by the
newly added sub-service as defined in router.proto. This new sub-server
has its own macaroon state (but overlapping permissions which can be
combined with the current admin.macaroon), and gives users a simplified
interface for a gRPC service that is able to simply send payment. Much
of the error reporting atm, is a place holder, and a follow up commit
will put up the infrastructure for a proper set of errors.
This commit makes use of the batched AddWitness
method of the WitnessCache, in order to avoid
performing one write for each accepted preimage.
Additionally, this fixes an existing hole in the
consistency guarantees since the batched writes
are now guaranteed to take place before accepting
the next CommitSig. Previously, these writes were
processed in an unsynchronized go routine that
could be delayed arbitrarily long before being
executed.
With this change, the async_payments_benchmarks
actually shows a slight improvement in
performance, presumably because we no longer do
an individual write per preimage, even though
the execution is now explicitly in the critical
path. There is likely also a marginal performance
improvement from the reduction in goroutine
overhead.
