In this commit, we modify the high value passed into UpdateFilter upon
restart. Before this commit, we would pass in the prune height, which
would cause a full rescan within the FilteredChainView if the best
height as > than the prune height. This was redundant as we would
shortly carry out a manual rescan in the method below. To fix this, we
now pass in the bestHeight, this isn’t an issue as the
syncGraphWithChain method will manually scan up to that best height.
In this commit, we add a new abstraction, the ValidationBarrier. This
struct will be used to allow parallel validation of announcements
within notes AuthenticatedGossiper as well as the ChannelRouter.
Naively validating the announcement in parallel would run into issues
as it would be possible for validate an update announcement, before
validating the channel announcement itself. We solve this by creating a
waiting dependance using the ValidationBarrier to ensure that the
defendant jobs wait until their parents have been full validated.
In this commit, we fix an existing bug within our cooperative channel
closing transaction generation. Before this commit, we wouldn’t account
for the fee already allocated within the commitment transaction. As a
result, we would calculate the evaluated balance considering the fee
incorrectly. In this commit, we fix this by adding the commitment fee
to the balance of the initiator when crafting the closing transaction
In this commit we correct an off by one error on the Shutdown and
ClosingSigned message types. Additionally, we fix an error related to
the numbering of the UpdateFee message. With this we, gain proper
compatibility with the other implementations when it comes to
commitment hygiene, and also the cooperative closure process.
In this commit, we fix an existing bug, as only the initiator needs to
validate any new fee updates. If the initiator sends an invalid fee,
then it will be rejected by the responder as it may put them below
their required reserve.
In this commit, we ensure that we reject any UpdateFee messages if
after applying the update, the initiator doesn’t have enough funds to
actually pay for the new commitment state.
A test has been added to exercise this new behavior.
In this commit, we update the retransmission logic to ensure that we
properly retransmit any sent UpdateFee messages as part of a state
transition. When creating a CommitDiff, if we have a pending fee
update, then we’ll add that to the set of logs updates. When restoring
the commit diff from disk, if we encounter an UpdateFee entry, then
we’ll apply that as waiting to be ACK’d and skip adding it as a log
entry.
A new test has been added to excessive this new behavior.
In this commit, we correct the BTC -> SAT conversion in
BtcdFeeEstimator. Previously, we use 10e8 instead of 1e8, causing us to
be off by an order of magnitude.
Adding 99 here didn’t really do anything but obfuscate when we were
trying to compute. We’re just using internet division to calculate 1%
of the channel capacity amount. This is the amount that the remote
party must remain above at all times.
In this commit, we fix an existing issue that could at times cause an
inconsistent view between the set of total coins, and the set of segwit
coins in the wallet of the node. This could be caused by initiating a
funding flow, but then the funding negotiation breaking down somewhere
along the lines. In this case, us or the other peer will disconnect.
When we initiate funding flows, we lock coins exclusively, to ensure
that concurrent funding flows don’t end up double spending the same
coin. Before this commit, we wouldn’t ever unlock those coins. As a
result, our view of available coins would be skewed.
The walletbalance call would show all the coins, but when adding the
—witness_only flag, some coins would be missing, or gone all together.
This is because the former call actually scans the txstore and manually
tallies the amount of available coins, while the latter looks at the
sent of available outputs, which is filtered based on which coins are
locked.
To remedy this, we now ensure that when a peer disconnects, we wipe all
existing reservations which will return any locked outputs to the set
of available outputs for funding flows.
In this commit we add a new case to the main select statement within a
channel link. This select statement will serve as a Sipping Bird which
will check the network fee rate (as returned by the fee estimator) and
compare that to the fee on the commitment transaction. Using the
shouldAdjustCommitFee function, we determine if we should update the
commitment fee. If so, then we’ll send an UpdateFee message and also
trigger a new commitment update.
We also add a new unit test: TestChannelLinkUpdateCommitFee to ensure
that we update the fee accordingly if the fee increases or decreases by
a large portion.
In this commit, we add a new helper function to the link which will be
utilized in a later commit. This helper function will help us determine
if we should update the commitment fee, in response to a change in the
network fee return by our fee estimators.
In this commit we update our glide file to point to the new version of
my fork of btcd with the fee estimator RPC merged in, and also the
version of btcwallet that allows callers to manually specify a value
for the fee rate of a given transaction.
In this commit, we add a new ResetState method to the channel state
machine which will reset the state of the channel to `channelOpen`. We
add this as before this commit, it was possible for a channel to shift
into the closing state, the closing negotiation be cancelled for
whatever reason, resulting the the channel held by the breachArbiter
unable to act to potential on-chain events.
With the new negotiation policy, we instead just need to ensure that
our fee inches closer to the other party’s with each iteration, and
that it’s within the proper bounds.
In this commit, we expose the new fee control features to the relevant
commands on the command line. This will allow users to have a greater
degree of control of the fees they pay when: sending coins on chain,
opening a channel, or closing a channel.
