With this PR we deprecate fields that have been specifically added to
to work around a bug in the gRPC/REST gateway that didn't allow bytes
fields to be encoded in REST requests.
That bug has now been fixed so the fields are no longer required.
To make it more clear how bytes fields have to be used in REST,
comments have been added to all those fields.
This commit parses mpp_total_amt_msat and mpp_payment_addr from the
SendToRoute rpc and populates an MPP record on the internal hop
reprsentation. When the router goes to encode the onion packet, these
fields will be serialized for the destination. We also populate the mpp
fields when marshalling routes in rpc responses.
This commit add mpp_total_amt_msat and mpp_payment_addr to the Hop
message. Doing so enables users submitting mpp payments via rpc to
set these parameters for the destination. In addition, it will allow us
to display these fields in rpc responses.
In this commit, we create a new chainfee package, that houses all fee
related functionality used within the codebase. The creation of this new
package furthers our long-term goal of extracting functionality from the
bloated `lnwallet` package into new distinct packages. Additionally,
this new packages resolves a class of import cycle that could arise if a
new package that was imported by something in `lnwallet` wanted to use
the existing fee related functions in the prior `lnwallet` package.
Probabilities are no longer returned for querymc calls. To still provide
some insight into the mission control internals, this commit adds a new
rpc that calculates a success probability estimate for a specific node
pair and amount.
With a separate proto message, it becomes possible to also return the
pair data for a single pair. This prepares for the new mc probability
querying rpc.
This commit adds the total observed lifetime of a channel and the
totaluptime of its remote peer to the lnrpc channel struct. These
fields are marked as experimential because they are subject to
change.
This commit changes mission control to partially base the estimated
probability for untried connections on historical results obtained in
previous payment attempts. This incentivizes routing nodes to keep all
of their channels in good shape.
Probability estimates are amount dependent. Previously we assumed an
amount, but that starts to make less sense when we make probability more
dependent on amounts in the future.
This sets the `jstype` option to `JS_STRING` for all `chan_id` fields
in the proto rpc definition. `chan_id` is a 64 bit integer, which is
not natively supported by javascript's floating-point `number` with
only 52 bit precision. Nevertheless, by default protobuf will use the
`number` type for 64 bit integer fields in javascript, which can cause
loss of precision problems with `chan_id`. Explicitly setting the type
for javascript as a string will prevent these issues, and should not
interfere with its use as an identifier.
With the introduction of the max CLTV limit parameter, nodes are able to
reject HTLCs that exceed it. This should also be applied to path
finding, otherwise HTLCs crafted by the same node that exceed it never
left the switch. This wasn't a big deal since the previous max CLTV
limit was ~5000 blocks. Once it was lowered to 1008, the issue became
more apparent. Therefore, all of our path finding attempts now have a
restriction of said limit in in order to properly carry out HTLCs to the
network.
In order to prevent future unforeseen issues, we are temporarily
disabling the ability to send custom tlv records to the receiver of a
payment. Currently the receiver does not process or expose these
additional fields via rpc or internally, so they are being disabled
until the end-to-end flow is finished and fully validated.
Extends the invalid payment details failure with the new accept height
field. This allows sender to distinguish between a genuine invalid
details situation and a delay caused by intermediate nodes.
This commit adds a set of htlcs to the Invoice struct and
serializes/deserializes this set to/from disk. It is a preparation for
accurate invoice accounting across restarts of lnd.
A migration is added for the invoice htlcs.
In addition to these changes, separate final cltv delta and expiry
invoice fields are created and populated. Previously it was required
to decode this from the stored payment request. The reason to create
a combined commit is to prevent multiple migrations.
This commit modifies paymentLifecycle so that it not only feeds
failures into mission control, but successes as well.
This allows for more accurate probability estimates. Previously,
the success probability for a successful pair and a pair with
no history was equal. There was no force that pushed towards
previously successful routes.
In this commit, we add a new field to the Hop proto to allow callers to
be able to specify TLV records for the SendToRoute call, and also to be
able to display TLV records that were used during regular path finding.
We also update SendPayment to support dest TLV records.
In this commit, we address an issue that would cause us to scan from the
genesis block for the spend of an output that we wish to use to raise
the fee of a transaction through CPFP. This was due to setting a 0
height hint when constructing the input required by the sweeper and was
discovered due to the recently added validation checks at the chain
notifier level. We'll now use the current height as the height hint
instead as the sweeper will end up creating a new transaction that
spends the input.
Previously mission control tracked failures on a per node, per channel basis.
This commit changes this to tracking on the level of directed node pairs. The goal
of moving to this coarser-grained level is to reduce the number of required
payment attempts without compromising payment reliability.
Align naming better with the lightning spec. Not the full name of the
failure (FailIncorrectOrUnknownPaymentDetails) is used, because this
would cause too many long lines in the code.
lnrpc/rpc.proto: updates RoutingPolicy last_update number
rpcserver: adding LastUpdate field to marshalDbEdge
This commit adds a LastUpdate field to each RoutingPolicy, it will show
the time each RoutingPolicy was updated.
lnrpc: regenerating proto files
In this commit two fields were added to the Channl RPC result in both
open and pending states.
The fields: local_chan_reserve, remote_chan_reserve represents the
reservation the nodes are rquired to keep in both sides of the channel.
This is usefull when calculating the "real" inbound and outbound
liquidity in an accurate way.
In this commit, we modify the parsing of user provided outpoints to
ensure that we catch a nil (empty) output early. Otherwise, passing a
set of incorrect arguments would cause `lnd` to crash.
This RPC exposes the recently added BumpFee functionality to the
UtxoSweeper in order to allow users of the RPC to manually bump fees of
low fee inputs/transactions.
This commit exposes the three main parameters that influence mission
control and path finding to the user as command line or config file
flags. It allows for fine-tuning for optimal results.
Previously every payment had its own local mission control state which
was in effect only for that payment. In this commit most of the local
state is removed and payments all tap into the global mission control
probability estimator.
Furthermore the decay time of pruned edges and nodes is extended, so
that observations about the network can better benefit future payment
processes.
Last, the probability function is transformed from a binary output to a
gradual curve, allowing for a better trade off between candidate routes.
This PR replaces the previously used edge and node ignore lists in path
finding by a probability based system. It modifies path finding so that
it not only compares routes on fee and time lock, but also takes route
success probability into account.
Allowing routes to be compared based on success probability is achieved
by introducing a 'virtual' cost of a payment attempt and using that to
translate probability into another cost factor.
This commit upgrades the protobuf version. Compared to the previous
v1.2.0 it generates smaller diffs in generated code. This change was
introduced in:
fffb0f7828
This fixes a bug where the RHashStr field on the PaymentHash request for
SubscribeSingleInvoice was being ignored. This replaces the PaymentHash
message for the SubscribeSingleInvoice request with a new message called
SubscribeSingleInvoiceRequest that contains only the RHash field.
