In this commit, we extend the `BuildRoute` method and RPC on the router
sub-server to accept a raw payment address which will be included as
part of an MPP payload for the finla hop. This change actually also
allows users to craft their own MPP paths using BuildRoute+SendToRoute.
Our primary goal however, was to fix some broken itests since we now
require the payAddr to be present for ALL payments other than key send
payments.
This allows for a 1000 different persistent operations to proceed
concurrently. Now that we are batching operations at the db level, the
average number of outstanding requests will be higher since the commit
latency has increased. To compensate, we allow for more outstanding
requests to keep the router busy while batches are constructed.
Similarly as with kvdb.View this commits adds a reset closure to the
kvdb.Update call in order to be able to reset external state if the
underlying db backend needs to retry the transaction.
This commit adds a reset() closure to the kvdb.View function which will
be called before each retry (including the first) of the view
transaction. The reset() closure can be used to reset external state
(eg slices or maps) where the view closure puts intermediate results.
This commit clamps all user-chosen CLTVs in LND to be at least 18, which
is the new conservative value used in the sepc. This minimum is applied
uniformly to forwarding CLTV deltas (via channel updates) as well as
final CLTV deltas for new invoices.
This commit reverts cb4cd49dc8d3b0255afe9ff29af9c46c2dbb2c98 to bring
back the insufficient local balance failure.
Distinguishing betweeen this failure and a regular "no route" failure
prevents meaningless htlcs from being sent out.
It can happen that the receiver times out some htlcs of the set if it
took to long to complete. But because the sender's mission control is
now updated, it is worth to keep trying to send those shards again.
Modifies the payment session to launch additional pathfinding attempts
for lower amounts. If a single shot payment isn't possible, the goal is
to try to complete the payment using multiple htlcs. In previous
commits, the payment lifecycle has been prepared to deal with
partial-amount routes returned from the payment session. It will query
for additional shards if needed.
Additionally a new rpc payment parameter is added that controls the
maximum number of shards that will be used for the payment.
With mpp it isn't possible anymore for findPath to determine that there
isn't enough local bandwidth. The full payment amount isn't known at
that point.
In a follow-up, this payment outcome can be reintroduced on a higher
level (payment lifecycle).
This commit fixes the inconsistency between the payment state as
reported by routerrpc.SendPayment/routerrpc.TrackPayment and the main
rpc ListPayments call.
In addition to that, payment state changes are now sent out for every
state change. This opens the door to user interfaces giving more
feedback to the user about the payment process. This is especially
interesting for multi-part payments.
We whitelist a set of "expected" errors that can be returned from
RequestRoute, by converting them into a new type noRouteError. For any
other error returned by RequestRoute, we'll now exit immediately.
We add validation making sure we are not trying to register MPP shards
for non-MPP payments, and vice versa. We also add validtion of total
sent amount against payment value, and matching MPP options.
We also add methods for copying Route/Hop, since it is useful to use
for modifying the route amount in the test.
This commit enables MPP sends for SendToRoute, by allowing launching
another payment attempt if the hash is already registered with the
ControlTower.
We also set the total payment amount of of the payment from mpp record,
to indicate that the shard value might be different from the total
payment value.
We only mark non-MPP payments as failed in the database after
encountering a failure, since we might want to try more shards for MPP.
For now this means that MPP sendToRoute payments will be failed
only after a restart has happened.
