This commit reduces the number of concurrent validation operations the
router will perform when fully validating the channel graph. Reports
from several users indicate that GetInfo would hang for several minutes,
which is believed to be caused by attempting to validate massive amounts
of channels in parallel. This commit returns the limit back to its
original state before adding the batched gossip improvements.
We keep the 1000 concurrent validation request limit for
AssumeChannelValid, since we don't fetch blocks in that case. This
allows us to still keep the performance benefits on mobile/low-resource
devices.
In this commit, we thread through the necessary state to allow users to
set a max shard amount. If this value is set, then this'll effectively
serve as a ceiling for all our split attempts. If we need to split,
we'll first try to use `paymentAmt/2`, if that's bigger than
`MaxShardAmt, then we'll use the latter instead.
Ideally in the future we have a dynamic way to automatically set both
the `MaxShardAmt` as well as `MaxParts` for users. Until then exposing
these two new fields will allow us to experiment with setting them
automatically using the RPC interface, and also give users a bit more
control over how we attempt to route payments, akin to coin control for
on-chain payments.
Fixes#4730
All of the other mission control exported functions acquire their locks
immediately, and do not lock in the subsequent unexported functions.
This commit moves the lock up for the report payment functions so that
mission control's config values are covered by this lock, in preparation
for allowing config to be updated at runtime. Moving this lock means
that we will hold the lock for the additional time it takes to store a
single result, AddResult, to the store.
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.
* mod: bump btcwallet version to accept db timeout
* btcwallet: add DBTimeOut in config
* kvdb: add database timeout option for bbolt
This commit adds a DBTimeout option in bbolt config. The relevant
functions walletdb.Open/Create are updated to use this config. In
addition, the bolt compacter also applies the new timeout option.
* channeldb: add DBTimeout in db options
This commit adds the DBTimeout option for channeldb. A new unit
test file is created to test the default options. In addition,
the params used in kvdb.Create inside channeldb_test is updated
with a DefaultDBTimeout value.
* contractcourt+routing: use DBTimeout in kvdb
This commit touches multiple test files in contractcourt and routing.
The call of function kvdb.Create and kvdb.Open are now updated with
the new param DBTimeout, using the default value kvdb.DefaultDBTimeout.

a timeout value using kvdb.DefaultDBTimeout.
* walletunlocker: add dbTimeout option in UnlockerService
This commit adds a new param, dbTimeout, during the creation of
UnlockerService. This param is then passed to wallet.NewLoader
inside various service calls, specifying a timeout value to be
used when opening the bbolt. In addition, the macaroonService
is also called with this dbTimeout param.

In addition, the usage of wallet.Create is updated too.
* sample-config: add dbtimeout option
In this commit, we extend the `BuildRoute` method and RPC on the router
sub-server to accept a raw payment address which will be included as
part of an MPP payload for the finla hop. This change actually also
allows users to craft their own MPP paths using BuildRoute+SendToRoute.
Our primary goal however, was to fix some broken itests since we now
require the payAddr to be present for ALL payments other than key send
payments.
This allows for a 1000 different persistent operations to proceed
concurrently. Now that we are batching operations at the db level, the
average number of outstanding requests will be higher since the commit
latency has increased. To compensate, we allow for more outstanding
requests to keep the router busy while batches are constructed.
Similarly as with kvdb.View this commits adds a reset closure to the
kvdb.Update call in order to be able to reset external state if the
underlying db backend needs to retry the transaction.
This commit adds a reset() closure to the kvdb.View function which will
be called before each retry (including the first) of the view
transaction. The reset() closure can be used to reset external state
(eg slices or maps) where the view closure puts intermediate results.
This commit clamps all user-chosen CLTVs in LND to be at least 18, which
is the new conservative value used in the sepc. This minimum is applied
uniformly to forwarding CLTV deltas (via channel updates) as well as
final CLTV deltas for new invoices.
This commit reverts cb4cd49dc8d3b0255afe9ff29af9c46c2dbb2c98 to bring
back the insufficient local balance failure.
Distinguishing betweeen this failure and a regular "no route" failure
prevents meaningless htlcs from being sent out.
It can happen that the receiver times out some htlcs of the set if it
took to long to complete. But because the sender's mission control is
now updated, it is worth to keep trying to send those shards again.
Modifies the payment session to launch additional pathfinding attempts
for lower amounts. If a single shot payment isn't possible, the goal is
to try to complete the payment using multiple htlcs. In previous
commits, the payment lifecycle has been prepared to deal with
partial-amount routes returned from the payment session. It will query
for additional shards if needed.
Additionally a new rpc payment parameter is added that controls the
maximum number of shards that will be used for the payment.
With mpp it isn't possible anymore for findPath to determine that there
isn't enough local bandwidth. The full payment amount isn't known at
that point.
In a follow-up, this payment outcome can be reintroduced on a higher
level (payment lifecycle).
This commit fixes the inconsistency between the payment state as
reported by routerrpc.SendPayment/routerrpc.TrackPayment and the main
rpc ListPayments call.
In addition to that, payment state changes are now sent out for every
state change. This opens the door to user interfaces giving more
feedback to the user about the payment process. This is especially
interesting for multi-part payments.
We whitelist a set of "expected" errors that can be returned from
RequestRoute, by converting them into a new type noRouteError. For any
other error returned by RequestRoute, we'll now exit immediately.
We add validation making sure we are not trying to register MPP shards
for non-MPP payments, and vice versa. We also add validtion of total
sent amount against payment value, and matching MPP options.
We also add methods for copying Route/Hop, since it is useful to use
for modifying the route amount in the test.
This commit enables MPP sends for SendToRoute, by allowing launching
another payment attempt if the hash is already registered with the
ControlTower.
We also set the total payment amount of of the payment from mpp record,
to indicate that the shard value might be different from the total
payment value.
We only mark non-MPP payments as failed in the database after
encountering a failure, since we might want to try more shards for MPP.
For now this means that MPP sendToRoute payments will be failed
only after a restart has happened.
This commit finally enables MP payments within the payment lifecycle
(used for SendPayment). This is done by letting the loop launch shards
as long as there is value remaining to send, inspecting the outcomes for
the sent shards when the full payment amount has been filled.
The method channeldb.MPPayment.SentAmt() is added to easily look up how
much value we have sent for the payment.
(almost) PURE CODE MOVE
The only code change is to change a few select cases from
case _ <- channel:
to
case <- channel:
to please the linter.
The test is testing the payment lifecycle, so move it to
payment_lifecycle_test.go
This commit redefines how the control tower handles shard and payment
level settles and failures. We now consider the payment in flight as
long it has active shards, or it has no active shards but has not
reached a terminal condition (settle of one of the shards, or a payment
level failure has been encountered).
We also make it possible to settle/fail shards regardless of the payment
level status (since we must allow late shards recording their status
even though we have already settled/failed the payment).
Finally, we make it possible to Fail the payment when it is already
failed. This is to allow multiple concurrent shards that reach terminal
errors to mark the payment failed, without havinng to synchronize.
In preparation for MPP we return the terminal errors recorded with the
control tower. The reason is that we cannot return immediately when a
shard fails for MPP, since there might be more shards in flight that we
must wait for. For that reason we instead mark the payment failed in the
control tower, then return this error when we inspect the payment,
seeing it has been failed and there are no shards in flight.
To move towards how we will handle existing attempt in case of MPP
(collecting their outcome will be done in separate goroutines separate
from the payment loop), we move to collect their outcome first.
To easily fetch HTLCs that are still not resolved, we add the utility
method InFlightHTLCs to channeldb.MPPayment.
Now that SendToRoute is no longer using the payment lifecycle, we move
the max hop check out of the payment shard's launch() method, and return
the error directly, such that it can be handled in SendToRoute.
Now that SendToRoute is no longer using the payment lifecycle, we
remove the error structs and vars used to cache the last encountered
error. For SendToRoute this will now be returned directly after a shard
has failed.
For SendPayment this means that the last error encountered durinng
pathfinding no longer will be returned. All errors encounterd can
instead be inspected from the HTLC list.
Instead of having SendToRoute pull routes from the payment session in
the payment lifecycle, we utilize the new methods on the paymentShard to
launch and collect the result for this single route.
This also let us remove the check for noRouteError, as we will always
have the result from the tried attempt returned. A result of this is
that we can finally remove lastError from the payment lifecycle (see
next commits).
Fetching the final shard result will also be done for calls to
SendToRoute, so we extract this code into a new method.
We move the call to the ControlTower to set the payment level failure
out into the payment loop, as this must be handled differently when
multiple shards are in flight, and for SendToRoute.
Define shardHandler which is a struct holding what is needed to send
attempts along given routes. The reason we define the logic on this
struct instead of the paymentLifecycle is that we later will make
SendToRoute calls not go through the payment lifecycle, but only using
this struct.
The launch shard is responsible for registering the attempt with the
control tower, failing it if the launch fails. Note that it is NOT
responsible for marking the _payment_ failed in case a terminal error is
encountered. This is important since we will later reuse this method for
SendToRoute, where whether to fail the payment cannot be decided on the
shard level.
We replace the cached attempt, and instead use the control tower
(database) to fetch any in-flight attempt. This is done as a
preparation for having multiple attempts in flight.
In addition we remove the cached circuit, as it won't be applicable when
multiple shards are in flight.
Instead of tracking the attemp we consult the database on every
iteration, and pick up any existing attempt. This also let us avoid
having to pass in the existing attempts from the payment loop, as we
just fetch them direclty.
This method is used to fetch a payment and all HTLC attempt that have
been made for that payment. It will both be used to resume inflight
attempts, and to fetch the final outcome of previous attempts.
We also update the the mock control tower to mimic the real control
tower, by letting it track multiple HTLC attempts for a given payment
hash, laying the groundwork for later enabling it for MPP.
The test case's preimage was (mistakenly) overwritten after crafting the
lightning payment, causing the parts of the testcases use the same
preimage causing problems when we are using the payment hash and
preimage in the mock control tower to distinguish paymennts.
In our quest to move calls to the ControlTower into the main payment
lifecycle loop, we move the edge case of a too long route out of
createNewPaymentAttempt.
loop
To prepare for multiple in flight payment attempts, we move
checkpointing the payment attempt out of createNewPaymentAttempt and
into the main payment lifecycle loop.
We'll attempt to move all calls to the DB via the ControlTower into this
loop, so we can more easily handle them in sequence.
active shards
In preparation for doing pathfinding for routes sending a value less
than the total payment amount, we let the payment session take the max
amount to send and the fee limit as arguments to RequestRoute.
This commit moves supplying of the information in the LightningPayment
to the initialization of the paymentSession, away from every call to
RequestRoute.
Instead the paymentSession will store this information internally, as it
doesn't change between payment attempts.
This is done to rid the RequestRoute call of the LightingPayment
argument, as for SendToRoute calls, it is not needed to supply the next
route.
