In this commit, we modify the filter we use to determine if we should
add a new channel to the switch to reflect the new channel restoration
state. For all other non-default states, we want to avoid loading in a
channel, but for the restoration state, we need to load the link in
order to ensure we initiate the data loss protection protocol once we
connect to the remote peer.
In this commit, we add a 5 minute idle timer to
the write handler. After catching the write
timeouts, it's been observed that some connections
have trouble reading a message for several hours.
This typically points to a deeper issue w/ the peer
or, e.g. the remote peer switched networks. This now
mirrors the idle timeout used in the read handler,
such that we will disconnect a peer if we are unable
to send or receive a message from the peer after 5
minutes.
We also modify the readHandler to drain its
idleTimer's channel in the even that the timer had
already fired, but we successfully sent the message.
This commit reduces the peer's write timeout to 5s.
Now that the peer catches write timeouts and doesn't
disconnect, this will ensure we spend less time blocking
in the write pool in case others also need to access the
workers concurrently. Slower peers will now only block
for 5s, after every reattempt w/ exponential backoff.
This commit modifies the writeHandler to catch timeout
errors, and retry writes to the socket after a small
backoff, which increases exponentially from 5s to 1m.
With the growing channel graph size, some lower-powered
devices can be slow to pull messages off the wire during
validation. The current behavior will cause us to
disconnect the peer, and resend all of the messages that
the remote peer is slow to validate. Catching the timeout
helps in preventing such expensive reconnection cycles,
especially as the network continues to grow.
This is also a preliminary step to reducing the
write timeout constant. This will allow concurrent usage
of the write pools w/out devoting excessive amounts of
time blocking the pool for slow peers.
In this commit, we set a default max HTLC in the forwarding
policies of newly open channels.
The ForwardingPolicy's MaxHTLC field (added in this commit)
will later be used to decide whether an HTLC satisfies our policy before
forwarding it.
To ensure the ForwardingPolicy's MaxHTLC default matches the max HTLC
advertised in the ChannelUpdate sent out for this channel, we also add
a MaxPendingAmount() function to the lnwallet.Channel.
In this commit, we add a prefix naming scheme to the ChannelStatus enum
variables. We do this as it enables outside callers to more easily
identify each individual enum variable as a part of the greater
enum-like type.
In this commit:
* we partition lnwire.ChanUpdateFlag into two (ChanUpdateChanFlags and
ChanUpdateMsgFlags), from a uint16 to a pair of uint8's
* we rename the ChannelUpdate.Flags to ChannelFlags and add an
additional MessageFlags field, which will be used to indicate the
presence of the optional field HtlcMaximumMsat within the ChannelUpdate.
* we partition ChannelEdgePolicy.Flags into message and channel flags.
This change corresponds to the partitioning of the ChannelUpdate's Flags
field into MessageFlags and ChannelFlags.

In this commit, we modify the peer's writeMessage
method to properly handle errors returned from
encoding an lnwire message and from setting the
write deadline on the connection. Since an error
would likely result in an empty byte slice, the
worse case seems to be that we may have tried to
send an empty message on the wire.
Lastly, we correct the way we compute bytes sent
on the wire to properly count the number of bytes
*written*, and not just the length of the encoded
message.
In this commit, we remove the per channel `sigPool` within the
`lnwallet.LightningChannel` struct. With this change, we ensure that as
the number of channels grows, the number of gouroutines idling in the
sigPool stays constant. It's the case that currently on the daemon, most
channels are likely inactive, with only a hand full actually
consistently carrying out channel updates. As a result, this change
should reduce the amount of idle CPU usage, as we have less active
goroutines in select loops.
In order to make this change, the `SigPool` itself has been publicly
exported such that outside callers can make a `SigPool` and pass it into
newly created channels. Since the sig pool now lives outside the
channel, we were also able to do away with the Stop() method on the
channel all together.
Finally, the server is the sub-system that is currently responsible for
managing the `SigPool` within lnd.
This commit makes the AddNewChannel expect a OpenChannel instead of a
LightningChannel struct. This moves the responsibility for starting the
LightningChannel from the fundingmanager to the peer, and we can defer
the channel restoration until we know that the channel is not already
active.
In this commit, we also check ErrEdgeNotFound when attempting to send an
active/inactive channel update for a channel to the network. We do this
as it's possible that a channel has confirmed, but it still does not
meet the required number of confirmations to be publicly announced.
In this commit, we fix a small bug with regards to the persistent peer
connection pruning logic. Before this commit, it'd be the case that we'd
prune a persistent connection to a peer if all links happen to be
inactive. This isn't ideal, as the channels are still open, so we should
always be atttempting to connect to them. We fix this by looking at the
set of channels on-disk instead and prune the persistent connection if
there aren't any.
This commit moves the gossip sync dispatch
such that it is more tightly coupled to the
life cycle of the peer. In testing, I noticed
that the gossip syncer needs to be dispatched
before the first gossip messages come across
the wire.
The prior spawn location in the server happens
after starting all of the peer's goroutines,
which could permit an ordering where the
gossip syncer has not yet been registered.
The new location registers the gossip syncer
within the read handler such that the call is
blocks before any messages are read.
In this commit, we add a quit channel to the AddMsg method of the
msgStream struct. Before this commit, if the queue was full, the
readHandler would block and be unable to exit. We remedy this by
leveraging the existing quit channel of the peer as an additional select
case within the AddMsg method.
