In this commit, we add a new sub-system, then `HostAnnouncer` which
allows a users without a static IP address to ensure that lnd always
announces the most up to date address based on a domain name. A new
command line flag `--external-hosts` has been added which allows a user
to specify one or most hosts that should be periodically resolved to
update any advertised IPs the node has.
Fixes#1624.
Adds a new configuration flag to lnd that will keep keysend payments in
the accepted state. An application can then inspect the payment
parameters and decide whether to settle or cancel.
The on-the-fly inserted keysend invoices get a configurable expiry time.
This is a safeguard in case the application that should decide on the
keysend payments isn't active.
This commit extends lncfg to support user specified database backend.
This supports configuration for both bolt and etcd (while only allowing
one or the other).
Variables related to the default configuration file location are
needed if the config parsing is happening externally. We export them
so they don't need to be copied to projects that use lnd as a library.
To allow external configuration parsing and validation, this commit
exports the function that checks a configuration for sanity.
Also because we touch the code, we need to fix all linter errors.
This provides users an alternative over the SAFECOOKIE authentication
method, which may not be as useful if users are connecting to a remote
Tor sevrer due to lnd not being able to retrieve the cookie file.
This commit enables the user to specify he is not interested in
automatically close channels with pending payments that their
corresponding htlcs have timed-out.
By requiring a configurable grace period uptime of our node
before closing such channels, we give a chance to the other node to
properly cancel the htlc and avoid unnecessary on-chain transaction.
In mobile it is very important for the user experience as otherwise
channels will be force closed more frequently.
This commit makes lnd recreate its TLS certificate if the config's
tlsextradomains or tlsextraips changed. This is useful, since earlier
user would have to manually delete the files to trigger lnd to recreate
them.
To ensure users don't accidentally have their TLS certificate recreated,
we gate it behind a flag --tlsautorefresh that defaults to false.
This commit adds handling code for the key send custom record. If this
record is present and its hash matches the payment hash, invoice
registry will insert a new invoice into the database "just in time". The
subsequent settle flow is unchanged. The newly inserted invoice is
picked up and settled. Notifications will be broadcast as usual.
This commit gets upfront shutdown scripts from openchannel and
acceptchannel wire messages sent from our peer and sets upfront
shutdown scripts in our open and accept channel messages when
the remote peer supports option upfront shutdown and we have
the feature enabled.
This commit beings the process of deprecating unsafe-disconnect. Many
moons ago this was disallowed to prevent concurency bugs surrounding
reconnect. Despite the name, it has been safe to enable this feature for
well over a year, as several PRs have been merged that addressed the
possible issues that existed when the feature was added.
In this commit, we begin to enforce a maximum channel commitment fee for
channel initiators when attempting to update their commitment fee. Now,
if the new commitment fee happens to exceed their maximum, then a fee
update of the maximum fee allocation will be proposed instead if needed.
A default of up to 50% of the channel initiator's balance is enforced
for the maximum channel commitment fee. It can be modified through the
`--max-channel-fee-allocation` CLI flag.
In this commit, we add a new build tag protected sub-config for legacy
protocol features. The goal of this addition is to be able to default to
new feature within lnd, but expose hooks at the config level to allow
integration tests to force the old behavior to ensure that we're able to
support both the old+new versions.
htlcs
config: Adding RejectHTLC field in config struct
This commit adds a RejectHTLC field in the config struct in config.go.
This allows the user to run lnd as a node that does not accept onward
HTLCs.
htlcswitch/switch: Adding a field RejectHTLC to the switch config
This commit adds a field RejectHTLC to the switch config. When the
switch receives an HTLC it will check this flag and if the HTLC is not
from the source hop, the HTLC will be rejected.
htlcswitch/switch: adding check for RejectHTLC flag and incomingChanID
This commit adds a check when receiving UpdateAddHTLC. The check looks
for the RejectHTLC flag set and whether the HTLC is from the sourceHop
(the local switch). If the HTLC is not from the sourceHop, then we
reject the HTLC and return a FailChannelDisabled error.
server: adding RejectHTLC field to initialization of switch
lnd_test: adding test for RejectHTLC
This commit adds a test which tests that a node with the --rejecthtlc
flag will reject any onward HTLCs but still can receive direct HTLCs and
can send HTLCs.
Debug invoices are rarely used nowadays, but keep asking for maintenance
every time refactoring in primarily the invoice registry occurs. We have
passed the cost/benefit tipping point, so therefore the debug invoice
concept is removed in this commit.
Previously the debughtlc flag also controlled whether hodl masks were
active. It is safe to remove that additional condition because the hodl
masks are still guarded by the dev build tag.
This commit adds the ignore-historical-filters CLI option, initially
defaulting to false. Users may use this option to prevent lnd from doing
historical gossip dumps to peers that set their `gossip_timestamp_range`
in the past. Enabling this option will result in lower bandwidth and
memory consumption. Down the road the plan is to make this default to
true.
With the introduction of the WatchtowerClient RPC subserver, the lnd
configuration flag to specify private watchtowers for the client is no
longer needed and can lead to confusion upon users. Therefore, we remove
the flag completely, and only rely on the watchtower client being active
through a new --wtclient.active flag.
Start the Prometheus exporter in rpcserver.go if monitoring is enabled through the
build tag. Also allow users to specify what address they want the Prometheus
exporter to be listening on.
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.
This commit fixes a bug where it was impossible to run lnd in litecoin's
simnet mode because of code duplication. As a result `numNets > 1`
conditional was always true when running lnd with `cfg.Litecoin.SimNet`
flag.
This commits exposes the various parameters around going to chain and
accepting htlcs in a clear way.
In addition to this, it reverts those parameters to what they were
before the merge of commit d1076271456bdab1625ea6b52b93ca3e1bd9aed9.
This commit adds optional jitter to our initial reconnection to our
persistent peers. Currently we will attempt reconnections to all peers
simultaneously, which results in large amount of contention as the
number of channels a node has grows.
We resolve this by adding a randomized delay between 0 and 30 seconds
for all persistent peers. This spreads out the load and contention to
resources such as the database, read/write pools, and memory
allocations. On my node, this allows to start up with about 80% of the
memory burst compared to the all-at-once approach.
This also has a second-order effect in better distributing messages sent
at constant intervals, such as pings. This reduces the concurrent jobs
submitted to the read and write pools at any given time, resulting in
better reuse of read/write buffers and fewer bursty allocation and
garbage collection cycles.
In this commit, we replace the NoChanUpdates flag with a flag that
allows us to specify the number of peers we want to actively receive new
graph updates from. This will be required when integrating the new
gossiper SyncManager subsystem with the rest of lnd.
In this commit, we add a new config option: `backupfilepath` for the new
SCB implementation. This argument allows users to specify a custom
location for the SCB file such as NFS or distinct partition.
Exposes the three parameters that dictate
the behavior of the channel status manager:
* --chan-enable-timeout
* --chan-disable-timeout
* --chan-status-sample-interval
In this commit, we increase the default trickle delay from 30s to 1m30s.
We do this as before we implement the new INV gossip mechanism, we want
to de-emphasise the quick propagation of updates through the network
which eats up bandwidth.
