Some time ago, we modified `lncli` to accept larger responses from the
server, up to 50MB. However, we failed to update the REST proxy, which
is in a sense, a client to the regular RPC server. As a result, users
can't currently hit the `/v1/graph` endpoint, as it'll fail with an
error.
In this PR, we update the proxy's dial options to allow it to receive
larger responses from the actual gRPC server. This is only a temporary
measure however, as we'll eventually want to expose some sort of
pagination for the end client.
The server was kept alive long after it stopped being used. This caused
problems for services using long-lived GRPC connections which might be
created before wallet unlocked. They got stuck connected to the wallet
unlock service needing a restart.
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.
In this commit, we establish a new pattern to always log errors before
returning them to the higher level caller, which then prints the error
to stdout/stderr. Errors returned are usually lowercase, but we decide
not to apply this rule here as these errors should not be chained
forward.
A cleanup closure is not included when an error is returned, causing the
defer to execute and triggering the following panic:
panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x0 pc=0x105da38]

This commit restructures the creation of various tls related object. It
also fixes a bug where wildcard IP addresses where only instantiated for
the main RPC server and not the WalletUnlocker service.
In this commit, we modify the server to serve the role as the agent
which will carry out the SCB restoration protocol if the Init/Unlock
methods include a set of channels to be recovered.
In this commit, we slightly refactor the startup of lnd when running
with a Neutrino light client backend. We'll now begin syncing our
backend as soon as lnd starts and passes all configuration checks. Since
this is all done before lnd's wallet setup, the light client will be
syncing in the background while the user notes/inputs their wallet seed.
This is done in order to provide a better UX from the point of the user,
such that most of the chain will already be synced by the time they get
to deposit funds into the wallet.
This commit moves the responsibility of managing the life cycle of the
autopilot from main to the autopilot Manager. It utilizes the recently
introduced autopilot Manager, and just sets up the necessary interfaces
for the Manager to properly set up the required subscriptions when
starting the agent.
In this commit, we modify the existing rpcServer to fully manage the
macaroons, gRPC server, and also seek out and create all sub-servers.
With this change, the RPC server gains more responsibility, as it
becomes the "root" server in the hierarchy of gRPC sub-servers.
In addition to creating each sub-server, it will also merge the set of
macaroon permissions for each sub-server, with the permissions of the
rest of the RPC infra. As a result, each sub-server is able to
independently specify what it needs w.r.t macaroon permissions and have
that taken care of by the RPC server. In order to achieve this, we need
to unify the creation of the RPC interceptors, and also fully manage the
gRPC server ourselves.

This PR adds the configuration needed to run LND with Litecoin on simnet. The change is minimal and has no impact for users that don't enable this mode. When using this configuration, the user is being warned that this mode is not officially supported.
In this commit, we ensure that we always set the wallet birthday. If the
user has provided a seed, or is creating a new one, then it will be
overwritten below. However, before this commit, if a user started with
the --noencryptwallet flag, then we would _always_ start to rescan from
genesis with the recent bug fix to ensure that we always start after the
birthday.
In this commit, we move the initialization of the server into the
funding manager itself. We do this as it's no longer the case that _any_
RPC needs to access the funding manager. In the past, this was the
only reason that the funding manager was instantiated outside of the
server: to be able to respond to queries _before_ the server was
started.
This change also fixes a bug as atm, the funding manager will try to
register for notifications _before_ the ChainNotifier itself has fully
started.
callbacks
The FindPeer and SendToPeer callbacks are no longer needed within the
fundingManager due to the previous commit allowing us to send messages
to peers directly.
In this commit, we fix a slight bug recently introduced by the addition
of the new signal package. As we now use a regular defer for many
actions, it may be possible that the logs aren't yet initialized (for
example, lnd -h), which can cause a panic if the shutdown procedure goes
to log before the logs have been initialized.
In this commit, we update the set of Tor flags to use sane defaults when
not specified. We also include some new flags related to the recent
onion services changes. This allows users to easily get set up on Tor by
only specifying the tor.active flag. If needed, the defaults can still
be overridden.
In this commit we add a new command line option (and a sane default) to
allow users to specify the *smallest* inbound channel that they'll
accept. Having a higher-ish limit lets users limit their channels, and
also avoid a series of very low value "spam" channels.
The new option is --minchansize, and expressed in satoshis. If we
receive an inbound channel request for a value smaller than this, then
we'll immediately reject it.
In this commit, we fix a minor bug in the prior versions of lnd. Before
this commit, if we received a new inbound connection for channel
creation, the channel was created, and then the peer disconnected, we
wouldn't automatically reconnect.
In this commit we fix this issue by overloading the WatchNewChannel
method to also accept the peer's ID so we can add it to the set of
persistent connections.
In this commit, we wrap up the prior ones and introduce config
settings, as well as proper generation for a new invoice-only macaroon.
All prior invoice path rules are also properly enforced of this new
invoice.macaroon.
Before previous commits were squashed into this commit, zombie
reservations were cleaned up individually when they timed out.
However, this made the code more complex because each reservation
had its own individual timer and thus it would have required the
timer being cancelled any time the reservation was cancelled,
which would have been harder to maintain. With this commit,
zombie reservations are cleaned up by a zombie sweeper that is
set off by a ticker instead, to make the code more maintainable.
In this commit, we update lnd to now access the deterministic
keychain.KeyRing struct in order to obtain our identity public key.
With this change, if the user recovers their wallet with the same seed,
then they’ll have access to the same prior node identity. This change
also makes it easy for us to support node key rotation in the future by
bumping up our requested index.
In this commit, we extend the initial wallet creation set up case with
the goal of giving the user the ability to restore a prior wallet from
seed, or obtain the mnemonic for a newly generated wallet.
As the WalletUnlocker has been extended to allow passing a user source
of entropy, if this is detected, then we’ll use BIP39 to covert it into
an HD wallet seed. Otherwise, we’ll generate our own entropy, then
convert that into the wallet seed.
In order to make this change, we’ll now manually create the default
wallet ourselves. In the case that the user didn’t provide their own
seed, we’ll send the seed we generated back to the user. This will allow
frontends to display the newly generated seed to the end user.
In this commit, we modify our initial cert generation to *only* generate
and advertise cipher suites that purely use ECC. We do this is as
switching to ECC results in much faster startup time for a fresh
installation, and is also more modern crypto. # Please enter the commit
message for your changes. Lines starting
This commit adds wallet_best_block_timestamp to the gRPC interface.
This is done in order to allow clients to calculate progress while
lnd syncs to the blockchain. wallet_best_block_timestamp is exposed
via the GetInfo() rpc call. Additionally, IsSynced() returns the
WalletBestBlockTimestamp as the second value in the tuple
that is returned, providing additional detail when querying about the
status of the sync. The BtcWallet interface has also been updated
accordingly.
This commit was created to support the issue to
[Add progress bar for chain sync] (lightninglabs/lightning-app#10) in
lightning-app
In this commit, we modify our initialization of neutrino to also pass
in the custom dialer and name resolver function. With this change, if
lnd is configured to use Tor, then neutrino will as well. This means
that *both* the Bitcoin P2P as well as the Lightning P2P traffic will
be proxied over Tor.
This commit adds the `tlsextraip` flag to the cli to add an
ip to the generated certificate. This is usefull when using
a loadbalancer to access the node.
In this commit, we fix an existing bug that would result in some
payments getting “stuck”. This would happen if one side restarted
before the channel was fully locked in. In this case, since upon
re-connection, the link will get added to the switch with a *short
channel ID of zero*. If A then tries to make a multi-hop payment
through B, B will fail to forward the payment, as it’ll mistakenly
think that the payment originated from a local-subsystem as the channel
ID is zero. A short channel ID of zero is used to map local payments
back to their caller.
With fix this by allowing the funding manager to dynamically update the
short channel ID of a link after it discovers the short channel ID.
In this commit, we fix a second instance of reported “stuck” payments
by users.
In this commit, we remove a server shutdown statement that was executed
after we obtained the wallet’s password from the user over RPC. This
was unnecessary as we already close the listener below. Before this
commit, users would see a weird benign error message. With these code
deletion, the message disappears.
This commit reworks the macaroon authentication framework to use the
v2 macaroon format and bakery API. It also replaces the code in each
RPC method which calls the macaroon verifier with interceptors which
call the macaroon verifier instead. In addition, the operation
permissions are reworked to fit the new format of "allow" commands
(specifically, entity/operation permissions instead of method
permissions).
We no longer need to hand off new channels that come online as the
chainWatcher will be persistent, and always have an active signal for
the entire lifetime of the channel.
This commit removes the `peerport` and `rpcport` config options and
adds `listen`, `rpclisten`, and `restlisten` options to allow setting
one or multiple interfaces to listen on for incoming connections.
It also adds a `nolisten` option to allow disabling the listener for
incoming peer connections.
This commit factors out the btcd and ltcd options into their own sections
similar to neutrino, and adds a bitcoind section as well. Now, you specify
node options similarly to:
--ltcd.rpchost=...
or
--btcd.rpcuser=...
or
--bitcoind.zmqpath=...
For Bitcoin, you specify an alternate back-end to btcd as follows:
--bitcoin.node=bitcoind
or
--bitcoin.node=neutrino
You can also specify the default option:
--bitcoin.node=btcd
For Litecoin, only `btcd` mode is valid, and corresponds to the `ltcd`
section. For example:
--litecoin.node=btcd
--ltcd.rpchost=...
The new code also attempts to read the correct options and auth info
from bitcoin.conf just as it does from btcd.conf/ltcd.conf.
This commit makes the value returned fomr NumRequiredConfs
and RequiredRemoteDelay used during the funding process scale
linearly with the channel size. This is done to ensure that
in cases there are more at stake in a channel, we have more
time to react to reorgs, or unilateral closes.
If the user explicitly specified values for these two at
startup, we return those instead, without doing the scaling.
