This commit updates the CommitSignature message to match the latest
version of the state-machine protocol. The log index specifies up to
which index in the receiver’s HTLC log the sender’s signature covers.
This commit modifies most of the wire messages to uniquely identify any
*active* channels by their funding output. This allows the wire
protocol to support funding transactions which open several channels in
parallel.
Any pending channels created by partial completion of the funding
workflow are to be identified by a uint64 initialized by both sides as
follows: the initiator of the connection starts from 0, while the
listening node starts from (1 << 63). These pending channel identifiers
are expected to be monotonically increasing with each new funding
workflow between two nodes. This identifier is volatile w.r.t to each
connection initiation.
This commit adds some cursory documentation along wit minor field
modifications to all messages which deal with adding HTLC’s, or
updating remote commitment transactions.
The messages for dual funding of channel is left purposefully
undocumented as all initial negotiations will be single funder by
default.
A revamp of the testing infrastructure of lnwire will be committed in
the near future.
* Added description in lnwire/README.md for state machine
* Figured out mutex stuff...
* Started the State Machine (using dummy functions for net/db)
* Minor corrections in wire protocol (changed some names/types)
- Renamed StagingID to HTLCKey of type HTLCKey (uint64)
* Structs and wire messages for HTLCs
* Wire protocol for a state machine with no blocking(!!!)
(I will write the state machine)
TL;DR: Can do multiple HTLC modifications in-flight, dead simple wire
protocol. Both sides can update their Commitments unliaterally without
waiting for the other party's signature. Will have basic/preliminary
notes in the README
* Added **swp to .gitignore because of vim annoyances
