We are going to use the config struct to allow getting and setting
of the mission control config in the commits that follow. Self node
is not something we want to change, so we move it out for better
separation.
The verification script makes sure the hashes of the binaries inside of
a docker image match those of an official release.
The script first downloads all signatures, validates them, then compares
the hashes of the installed binaries to those contained in the detached
signature files.
This commit reverts the anchors-by-default change, and instead make
anchor commitments and opt-in option. The plan is to enable anchors by
default further down the line.
We add a new make goal called release-install that creates the same
reproducible binaries as the release script would create, but only for
the current OS/architecture. It then installs those binaries to the
system's GOBIN directory.
To allow easy verification of individual binaries (instead of just the
packag tarballs/zips), we also add the hashes of lnd and lncli binaries
to the manifest. We do the same in the docker build.
This commit moves the contract breach event dispatch after the channel
close summary has been added to the database. This is important
otherwise it may occur that we attempt to mark the channel fully closed
while the channel close summary is not yet serialized.
To prevent novice users from running non-release versions, we update the
installation instructions to point them towards our release binaries.
We also document the new Docker build helper that allows you to compile
lnd without needing to install golang.
A new top level feeurl option was added recently to replace the neutrino.feeurl
option. The new option was never added to the sample config file and the
text was never updated to reflect that the option is required for
neutrino on mainnet. We fix this and also add a valid mainnet example
URL to the sample config file.
A number of tricks need to be applied to the tar and zip commands
respectively to make sure they always produce deterministic archives.
This includes setting the file timestamps to a fixed date and setting
specific ownership attributes (tar) or no attributes at all (zip).
We do this instead of using the source of the AnnounceSignatures
message, as we filter out the source when broadcasting any
announcements, leading to the remote node not receiving our channel
update. Note that this is done more for the sake of correctness and to
address a flake within the integration tests, as channel updates are
sent directly and reliably to channel counterparts.
As similarly done with premature channel announcements, we'll no longer
allow premature channel updates to be rebroadcast once mature. This is
no longer necessary as channel announcements that we're not aware of are
usually broadcast to us with their accompanying channel updates.
