This commit adds a linkError field to track the value of failures
which occur at our node. This field is set when local payments or
multi hop htlcs fail in the switch or on our outgoing link. This
addition is required for the addition of a htlc notifier which will
notify these failures in handleDownstreamPacket.
The passing of link error to failAddPacket removes the need for an
additional error field, because the link error's failure detail will
contain any additional metadata. In the places where the failure detail
does not cover all the metadata that was previously supplied by addr
err, the error is logged before calling failAddPacket so that this
change does not reduce the amount of information we log.
Add a FailureDetail interface which allows us have different kinds of
failures for link errors. This interface will be used to cover failures
that occur when on invoice payment, because the errors have already
been enumerated in the invoices package.
Rename FailureDetail in a separate commit so that a FailureDetail
interface can be introduced in the following commit.
OutgoingFailureOnionDecode is renamed to OutgoingFailureDecodeError
to specifically indicate that we could not decode the wire
failure that our payment experienced.
Add a CheckCircularForward function which detects packets which are
forwards over the same incoming and outgoing link, and errors if the
node is configured to disallow forwards of this nature. This check is
added to increase the cost of a liquidity lockup attack, because it
increases the length of the route required to lock up an individual
node's bandwidth. Since nodes are currently limited to 20 hops,
increasing the length of the route needed to lock up capital increases
the number of malicious payments an attacker will have to route, which
increases the capital requirement of the attack overall.
Update the ChannelLink interface to specifically
return the LinkError struct. This error implements
the ClearTextError interface, so will be picked
up as a routing realted error by the router.
With LinkErrors implemented, the switch now
returns a LinkError for all failures on our
incoming/outgoing link and ForwardingError when
the failure occurs down the line.
Add a constructor for the creation of forwarding errors.
A special constructor is added for the case where we have
an unknown wire failure, and must set a nil failure message.
This commit is adapted from @Bluetegu's original
pull request #1462.
This commit reads an optional address to pay funds out to
from a user iniitiated close channel address. If the channel
already has a shutdown script set, the request will fail if
an address is provided. Otherwise, the cooperative close will
pay out to the address provided.
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.
In the scenario where the requested channel does not have enough balance
and another channel towards the same node generates a different failure,
we erroneously returned UnknownNextPeer instead of the expected
TemporaryChannelFailure.
This commit rewrites the non-strict forwarding logic in the switch to
return the proper failure message. Part of this is moving the link
balance check inside the link.
The policy update logic that resided part in the gossiper and
part in the rpc server is extracted into its own object.
This prepares for additional validation logic to be added for policy
updates that would otherwise make the gossiper heavier.
It is also a small first step towards separation of our own channel data
from the rest of the graph.
Since we will now wait to deliver the event after channel reestablish,
notifying when the link is added to the switch will no longer be
sufficient. Later, we will add receiving reestablish as an additional
requirement for EligibleToForward returning true.
The inactive ntfn is also moved, to ensure that we don't fire inactive
notifications if no corresponding active notification was sent.
In this commit, we fix a bug where if a user updates a forwarding policy to be
zero, the update will be applied to the policy correctly on-disk, but not
in-memory.
We solve this issue by having the gossiper return the list of on-disk updated
policies and passing these policies to the switch, so the switch can assume
that zero-valued fields are intentional and not just uninitialized.
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.
This commit makes the outgoing link pipeline the settle to the
switch as soon as it receives it. Previously, it would wait for a
revocation before sending it, which caused increased latency on
payments as well as possibly never settling on the incoming link.
A duplicate settle is still sent to the switch, but it is handled
gracefully. A new AckEventTicker was added to the switch which
acknowledges any pending settle / fail entries in an outgoing
link's fwd pkgs in batch. This was needed in order to reduce the
number of db txn's which would have been incurred by acking whenever
we receive a duplicate settle without batching.
Methods on failure message types used to be defined on value receivers.
This allowed assignment of a failure message to ForwardingError both as
a value and as a pointer. This is error-prone, especially when using a
type switch.
In this commit the failure message methods are changed so that they
target pointer receivers.
Two instances where a value was assigned instead of a reference are
fixed.
In this commit we move handing the deobfuscator from the router to the
switch from when the payment is initiated, to when the result is
queried.
We do this because only the router can recreate the deobfuscator after a
restart, and we are preparing for being able to handle results across
restarts.
Since the deobfuscator cannot be nil anymore, we can also get rid of
that special case.
This lets us distinguish an critical error from a actual payment result
(success or failure). This is important since we know that we can only
attempt another payment when a final result from the previous payment
attempt is received.
With the following commits, it'll become important to not resuse
paymentIDs, since there is no way to tell whether the HTLC in question
has already been forwarded and settled/failed.
We clarify this in the SendHTLC comments, and alter the tests to not
attempt to resend an HTLC with a duplicate payment ID.
This commit moves the responsibility of generating a unique payment ID
from the switch to the router. This will make it easier for the router
to keep track of which HTLCs were successfully forwarded onto the
network, as it can query the switch for existing HTLCs as long as the
paymentIDs are kept.
The router is expected to maintain a map from paymentHash->paymentID,
such that they can be replayed on restart. This also lets the router
check the status of a sent payment after a restart, by querying the
switch for the paymentID in question.
In this commit, we now properly convert multi-hop malformed HTLC
failures. Before this commit, we wouldn't properly add a layer of
encryption to these errors meaning that the destination would fail to
decrypt the error as it was actually plaintext.
To remedy this, we'll now check if we need to convert an error, and if
so we'll encrypt it as if it we were the source of the error (the true
source is our direct channel peer).
In this commit, we fix a bug that caused us to be unable to properly
handle malformed HTLC failures from our direct link. Before this commit,
we would attempt to decrypt it and fail since it wasn't well formed. In
this commit, if its an error for a local payment, and it needed to be
converted, then we'll decode it w/o decrypting since it's already
plaintext.
This commit modifies the behavior of the
HasActiveLink method within the switch to
only return true if the link is in the
link index and is eligible to forward
HTLCs.
The prior version returns true whenever
the link is found in the link index,
which may return true for pending
channels that are not actually active.
This commit adds conversion between the lnwire.UpdateFee message and the
new FeeUpdate PaymentDescriptor. We re-purpose the existing Amount field
in the PaymentDescriptor stuct to hold the feerate.
This commit moves the logic handling responses to
locally-initiated payments to be asynchronous. The
reordering of operations into handleLocalDispatch
brings a serious performance burden to the switch's
main event loop. However, the at-most once semantics
of circuit map and idempotency of cleanup methods
allows concurrent operations to run in parallel.
Prior to this commit, the async_payments_benchmark
would timeout due to the forcibly serial nature of
the prior design. With this change, there is no
perceptible difference in the benchmark OMM, even
though we've added two extra db calls.
