In this commit, we add a new method shouldRequestGraphSync which the
server will use in order to determine if we should request a full
channel graph sync from a newly connected remote peer. Atm, we’ll only
request a full sync iff, we have less than two peers. This is only the
initial basic logic, as we’ll later extend this to be more
comprehensive.
With this change, we’ll no longer be blasted by full channel graph
dumps for _each_ new connection after we deem that we’ve been
sufficiently bootstrapped to the network.
In this commit we add the set of local features advertised as a
parameter to the newPeer function. With this change, the server will be
able to programmatically determine _which_ bits should be set on a
connection basis, rather than re-using the same global set of bits for
each peer.
This commit adds a new field to the switch’s Config, namely the public
key of the backing lightning node. This field will soon be used to
return more detailed errors messages back to the ChannelRouter itself.
This reverts commit 6db90ef09ab974df0ff09aeaf75a3d80414d4f50.

This commit removes another case of unnecessary blockage, by modifying
the sendToPeer method to be fully asynchronous. From the PoV of the
callers that utilize this method currently, there’s no reason to block
until the completion of this method. Additionally, as the graph grows
larger without more intelligent the number of messages sent during
initial dump will start to be prohibitive to waiting for full
completion before proceeding.
In this commit, we make the BroadcastMessage method on the server more
asynchronous by abandoning the two wait groups that it used for
synchronization. It has been observed that a circular waiting loop
between the AuthenticatedGossiper and a peer’s readHandler can cause
the system to dead lock.
By removing this unnecessary synchronization, we avoid the deadlock
case and allow the gossiper itself to no longer block in this scenario.
In this commit we modify the main loop within the peerBootstrapper
slightly to check for a sufficient amount of connections, _before_
checking to see if we need to back off the main loop. With this, we
avoid unnecessarily backing off unless an actual error occurs.
This commit implements 2-week zombie channel pruning. This means that
every GraphPruneInterval (currently set to one hour), we’ll scan the
channel graph, marking any channels which haven’t had *both* edges
updated in 2 weeks as a “zombie”. During the second pass, all “zombie”
channel are removed from the channel graph all together.
Adding this functionality means we’ll ensure that we maintain a
“healthy” network view, which will cut down on the number of failed
HTLC routing attempts, and also reflect an active portion of the graph.
This commit fixes an incorrect logging statement within the
peerBootstrapper goroutine. We we’re using a Debug method previously
when we should’ve been using Debugf in order to properly pass the
logging statement through.
This commit adds a listener queue for each peer, that can be used
to queue listeners that will be notified when the targetted peer
eventually comes online.
This commit adds a new primary goroutine to the server struct:
peerBootstrapper. If peer boostrapping isn’t disabled in the config,
this new goroutine will be launched to attempt to establish a set of
initial connections for a new node. The logic is pretty straight
forward: first a set of initial connections is attempted, if after our
first epoch, we don’t have enough connections yet, then we’ll attempt
to query for an additional set. In each iteration, if we haven’t been
successful, then we increase our exponential backoff in order to not
spam any of our bootstrapping sources.
This commit alters the synchronization patterns used in the server
such that the internal state is protected by a single mutex. Overall,
this simplifies the ability to reason about the behavior and
manipulation of the internal state, which has resolved a few of flakes
related to race conditions that were observed before hand.
Invoking DisconnectPeer is now fully synchronous, and waits until
the provided peer's peerTerminationWatcher has exited before
returning. Currently this is done by tracking the watcher using the
peer's WaitGroup, and locking until the peer has shutdown.
The server's API has also been refactored such that all public methods
are safe for concurrent use. Therefore, other subsystems should be
sure to make use of these endpoints to avoid corrupting the internal
state.
This commit adds a new utility method to the server struct itself. This
method will allow callers to query the state of the server in order to
decide if the server has been started or not. This can be useful
elsewhere in the project as we start to decouple the lifetime of
certain sub-systems from others.
This commit updates the main single-funder funding workflow within the
fundingManager (initiated via the rpcserver or by a message from a
connected peer) to fully adhere to the funding protocol outlined in
BOLT-0002.
The major changes are as follows:
* All messages modified to use the new funding messages in BOLT-0002.
* The initiator of a funding workflow no longer decides how many
confirmations must elapse before the channel can be considered open.
* Rather than each side specifying their desired CSV delay, both
sides now specify the CSV delay for the _other_ party.
In previous commits we have intoduced the onion errors. Some of this
errors include lnwire.ChannelUpdate message. In order to change
topology accordingly to the received error, from nodes where failure
have occured, we have to propogate the update to the router subsystem.
In this commit daemon have been changed to set the proper hooks in the
channel link and switch subsystems so that they could send and receive
encrypted onion errors.
This commit overhauls the way that lnd is created with the goal of
ensuring the chain backends are fully synced up before the daemon
itself starts. The rpcServer has been slightly decoupled from the
server itself s.t we can start the rpcServer independently of the
server. This is required as we’ll now wait (unless we’re in simnet
mode) for the chain to fully sync up before we even _start_ any of the
server’s goroutines.
This commit modifies the Peers method on the server such that a caller
is able to query this method without the main serger goroutines
started. This is a small component in a larger change which will let us
start the RPC server independently of the server.
In current commit big shift have been made in direction of unit testable
payments scenarios. Previosly two additional structures have been added
which had been spreaded in the lnd package before, and now we apply
them in the lnd itself:
1. ChannelLink - is an interface which represents the subsystem for
managing the incoming htlc requests, applying the changes to the
channel, and also propagating/forwarding it to htlc switch.
2. Switch - is a central messaging bus for all incoming/outgoing htlc's.
The goal of the switch is forward the incoming/outgoing htlc messages
from one channel to another, and also propagate the settle/fail htlc
messages back to original requester.
With this abtractions the folowing schema becomes nearly complete:
