In this commit, we start to expose some of the new external funding
functionality over the RPC interface.
First, we add a new `funding_shim` field to the regular `OpenChannel`
method. This can be used by a caller to express that certain parameters
of the funding flow have already been negotiated outside the protocol,
and should be used instead. For example, a shim can be provided to use a
particular key for the commitment key (ideally cold) rather than use one
this is generated by the wallet as normal, or signal that signing will
be carried out in an interactive manner (PSBT based).
Next, we add a brand new method: `FundingStateStep`. FundingStateStep is
an advanced funding related call that allows the caller to either
execute some preparatory steps for a funding workflow, or manually
progress a funding workflow. The primary way a funding flow is
identified is via its pending channel ID. As an example, this method can
be used to specify that we're expecting a funding flow for a particular
pending channel ID, for which we need to use specific parameters.
Alternatively, this can be used to interactively drive PSBT signing for
funding for partially complete funding transactions.
The new transition methods (funding state machine modifiers) in this
commit allow a party to register a funding intent that should be used
for a specified incoming pending channel ID. The "responder" to the
external channel flow should use this to prep lnd to be able to handle
the channel flow properly.
This commits builds on top of PR #3694 to further clarify invoice
state by defining pending invoices as the ones which are not
settled or canceled. Automatic cancellation of expired invoices
makes this possbile. While this change only directly affects
ChannelDB, users of the listinvoices RPC will receive actual
pending invoices when pending_only flag is set.
In this commit, we add `msats` to the return value of `DecodePayReq` to
ensure we always show full value information as we're moving to do
generally for all RPC calls that deal with off-chain amounts.
With this PR we deprecate fields that have been specifically added to
to work around a bug in the gRPC/REST gateway that didn't allow bytes
fields to be encoded in REST requests.
That bug has now been fixed so the fields are no longer required.
To make it more clear how bytes fields have to be used in REST,
comments have been added to all those fields.
This commit add mpp_total_amt_msat and mpp_payment_addr to the Hop
message. Doing so enables users submitting mpp payments via rpc to
set these parameters for the destination. In addition, it will allow us
to display these fields in rpc responses.
This commit adds the total observed lifetime of a channel and the
totaluptime of its remote peer to the lnrpc channel struct. These
fields are marked as experimential because they are subject to
change.
With the introduction of the max CLTV limit parameter, nodes are able to
reject HTLCs that exceed it. This should also be applied to path
finding, otherwise HTLCs crafted by the same node that exceed it never
left the switch. This wasn't a big deal since the previous max CLTV
limit was ~5000 blocks. Once it was lowered to 1008, the issue became
more apparent. Therefore, all of our path finding attempts now have a
restriction of said limit in in order to properly carry out HTLCs to the
network.
In order to prevent future unforeseen issues, we are temporarily
disabling the ability to send custom tlv records to the receiver of a
payment. Currently the receiver does not process or expose these
additional fields via rpc or internally, so they are being disabled
until the end-to-end flow is finished and fully validated.
