Due to a recent change within the codebase to return estimated fee rates
in sat/kw, this commit ensures that we use this fee rate properly by
calculing a transaction's fees using its weight. This includes all of
the different transactions that are created within lnd (funding, sweeps,
etc.). On-chain transactions still rely on a sat/vbyte fee rate since it's
required by btcwallet.
In this commit, we modify our FeeEstimator interface to return an
estimated fee rate in sat/kw. Recently, due to low fees on the network,
users have been experiencing failures broadcasting transactions due to
not meeting specific fee requirements. This was happening more often
than not, as the estimated fee returned by backend nodes (bitcoind and
btcd) only takes into account vbytes, rather than weight. The fees
returned are also expressed in sat/kb, so we must take care that we do
not lose precision while converting to sat/kw. In the event that this
happens, a fee floor of 253 sat/kw has been added. This fee rate
originates from bitcoind rounding up the conversion from weight to
vbytes.
In this commit, we introduce a nice optimization with regards to lnd's
interaction with a bitcoind backend. Within lnd, we currently have three
different subsystems responsible for watching the chain: chainntnfs,
lnwallet, and routing/chainview. Each of these subsystems has an active
RPC and ZMQ connection to the underlying bitcoind node. This would incur
a toll on the underlying bitcoind node and would cause us to miss ZMQ
events, which are crucial to lnd. We remedy this issue by sharing the
same connection to a bitcoind node between the different clients within
lnd.
In this commit, we update the NewBreachRetribution method to include
pkScripts for htlc outputs. We do this now, as the breach arbiter will
need the raw pkScript when attempting to request spend notifications for
each HTLC.
In this commit, we export WitnessScriptHash and GenMultiSigScript as
external sub-systems may now need to use these methods in order to be
able to watch for confirmations based on the script of a transaction.
This commit adds a check for the LocalUnrevokedCommitPoint sent to us by
the remote during channel reestablishment, ensuring it is the same point
as they have previously sent us.
This commit enumerates the various error cases we can encounter when we
compare our remote commit chain to the view the remote communicates to us
via msg.NextLocalCommitHeight.
We now compare this height to our remote tail and tip height, returning
relevant error in case of a unrecoverable desync, and re-send a
commitment signature (including log updates) in case we owe one.
This commit enumerates the various error cases we can encounter when we
compare our local commit chain to the view the remote communicates to us
via msg.RemoteCommitTailHeight.
We now compare this height to our local tail height (note that there's
never a local "tip" at this point), returning relevant error in case of
a unrecoverable desync, and re-send a revocation in case we owe one.
This commit defines a few new errors that we can potentially encounter
during channel reestablishment:
* ErrInvalidLocalUnrevokedCommitPoint
* ErrCommitSyncLocalDataLoss
* ErrCommitSyncRemoteDataLoss
in addition to the already defined errors
* ErrInvalidLastCommitSecret
* ErrCannotSyncCommitChains
In this commit, we correct our size estimates for to-local scripts,
which are used on the commitment transaction and the htlc
success/timeout transactions. There have been observed cases of
transactions getting stuck because our estimates were too low, and cause
the transactions to not be relayed.
Our previous estimate for the commitment to-local script was derived
from an older version of the script. Though the estimate is greater than
the actual size, this has been updated with the current estimate of 79
bytes.
This estimates makes the assumption that CSV delays will be at most
4 bytes when serialized. Since this value is expressed in relative block
heights, this should be more than sufficient for our needs, even though
the maximum possible size for the little-endian int64 is 9 bytes (plus
an OP_DATA).
The other correction is to use the ToLocalScriptSize as our estimate for
htlc timeout/success scripts, as they are the same script. Previously,
our estimate was derived from the proper script, though we were 6 bytes
shy of the new to-local estimate, since we counted the csv_delay as 1
byte, and missed some other OP_DATAs.
All derived estimates have been updating depending on the new and
improved ToLocalScriptSize estimate, and fix some estimates that did not
include the witness length in the estimate.
Finally, we correct some weight miscalculations in:
- AcceptedHtlcTimeoutWitnessSize: missing data push lengths
- OfferedHtlcSuccessWitnessSize: extra 73 byte sig, missing data push lengths
- OfferedHtlcPenaltyWitnessSize: missing 33 byte pubkey
Makes the helper methods for constructing witness script
hash and to-local outputs. This will allow watchtowers to
import and reuse this logic when sweeping outputs.
We check if the channel is FullySynced instead of comparing the local
and remote commit chain heights, as the heights might not be in sync.
Instead we call FullySynced which recently was modified to use compare
the message indexes instead, which is _should_ really be in sync between
the chains.
The test TestChanSyncOweRevocationAndCommitForceTransition is altered to
ensure the two chains at different heights before the test is started, to
trigger the case that would previously fail to resend the commitment
signature.
This commit adds a test which will restore a channel from an OpenChannel
struct at various stages of the state transation cycle, ensuring the
HTLC local and remote add heights are restored properly.
This commit fixes a bug which would cause the add heights of the HTLCs
in the update log to be set wrongly. At times, an add height could be
incorrecly set, leading to the HTLCs not being accounted for correctly
during evaluating the HTLC views. This was caused by the assumption that
if the HTLC was not on the pending remote commit, then it was locked in
on both the local and the remote commit, which is not always true.
Instead of making this assumption, we instead now inspect the three
commits: the local, remote and pending remote; and set the add heights
accordingly. This should ensure that HTLCs are subtracted from the
balances only when they are first added.
