In this commit, we introduce a migration for the message store
sub-bucket that will migrate all keys within it to a new key format.
This new key format is composed of the peer's public key, followed by
the short channel ID, followed by the message type. This migration is
needed in order to provide backwards-compatibility with messages that
were previously stored before the introduction of the new key format.
In this commit, we add a new store within the database that'll be
responsible for storing gossip messages which we need to reliably send
to peers. This aims to replace the current messageStore that exists
within the gossiper, so much of this logic is borrowed from there.
One of the main differences between the two is that we now index
messages with a new key format in which we take into account the
message's type. This allows us to store different messages for a
specific channel with a peer. The old key format is still supported in
order to prevent a database migration.
Exposes the three parameters that dictate
the behavior of the channel status manager:
* --chan-enable-timeout
* --chan-disable-timeout
* --chan-status-sample-interval
ScoreSettable is an interface that let caller set external scores for
the heuristic. The ExternalScoreAttachment and WeightedCombAttachment
heuristics implement this interface.
This commit adds a method SetNodesScores to the WeightedCombAttachment
heuristic.
Since the heuristic keeps a list of sub-heuristics, it will attempt to
recursively apply the scores to the sub heuristics.
This commit adds a new autopilot heuristic that is scoring based. It is
a simple heuristic that will keep a list of pubkeys and scores, and will
try opening channels with the nodes with the largest score first.
In this commit, we update all the `btcsuite` dependencies, along with
neutrino to their latest version. The main change in this version is a
bug fix in the way that we generated the filters that neutrino uses. As
a result, any users running btcd with neutrino today will need to
**regenerate their filter chain** using `--dropcfindex`. Any existing
neutrino clients out there will also need _re sync_ all together as the
"correct" filter header chain.
In this commit, we rename the previously unexported ticker into T,
making it exported along the way. This is nice as we now have access to
the actual interface implementation without the need of making further
type assertions.
This latest versino of neutrino contains some fixes that make lnd a bit
snappier when running on mobile devices. We'll now wait until we have our
first peer before we try to sync the chain. We'll also no longer try to fail
to query filter checkpoints if we don't actually have any to fetch.
