In this commit, we extend the path finding to be able to recognize when
a node needs the new TLV format, or the legacy format based on the
feature bits they expose. We also extend the `LightningPayment` struct
to allow the caller to specify an arbitrary set of TLV records which can
be used for a number of use-cases including various variants of
spontaneous payments.
In this commit, we extend the Hop struct to carry an arbitrary set of
TLV values, and add a new field that allows us to distinguish between
the modern and legacy TLV payload.
We add a new `PackPayload` method that will be used to encode the
combined required routing TLV fields along any set of TLV fields that
were specified as part of path finding.
Finally, the `ToSphinxPath` has been extended to be able to recognize if
a hop needs the modern, or legacy payload.
In this commit, we add two new method so the `Record` struct: Type() and
Encode(). These are useful when a caller is handling a record and may
not know its underlying type and may need to encode a record in
isolation.
In this commit, we address an issue that would cause us to scan from the
genesis block for the spend of an output that we wish to use to raise
the fee of a transaction through CPFP. This was due to setting a 0
height hint when constructing the input required by the sweeper and was
discovered due to the recently added validation checks at the chain
notifier level. We'll now use the current height as the height hint
instead as the sweeper will end up creating a new transaction that
spends the input.
The cache wasn't really serving a purpose as FetchInputInfo isn't known
to be a hot path. Also, with a planned addition of returning the
confirmation status of an output within FetchInputInfo in a later
commit, caching won't be useful as we'll have to go to disk anyway to
determine the confirmation status.
This prevents a deadlock while tearing down the TxNotifier if it's
currently blocked delivering a notification. By closing the quit chan
first, we ensure blocked sends/reads can exit and allow the TxNotifier
to proceed tearing down.
A height hint not being set would cause lnd to scan for the
confirmation/spend of a txid/outpoint/address from genesis.
The number of confirmations not being set within a confirmation request
would cause the internal TxNotifier to deadlock when dispatching
updates.
There's no need to broadcast these as we assume that online nodes have
already received them. For nodes that were offline, they should receive
them as part of their initial graph sync.
In this commit, we address an edge case that can happen a user rescans
w/ their seed, while retaining their existing `channel.db`. Once they
rescan, if they go to sign for a channel sweep for example, the
commitment key family (actually an account) may not yet have been
created, causing the signing attempt to fail.
We remedy this always creating the account if we go to sign, and the
account isn't found. The change has been structured to make this the
exception, so we'll avoid always needing to do 2 DB hits (check if
account exists, sign), each time we sign.
A new test has been added to exercise this behavior. If the diff from
the `signer.go` file is removed, then the test will fail.
Log can be pretty spammy when using the pendingchannels rpc, which
creates a log for each closing channel. Should help clear up logs for
more pertinent information.
htlcs
config: Adding RejectHTLC field in config struct
This commit adds a RejectHTLC field in the config struct in config.go.
This allows the user to run lnd as a node that does not accept onward
HTLCs.
htlcswitch/switch: Adding a field RejectHTLC to the switch config
This commit adds a field RejectHTLC to the switch config. When the
switch receives an HTLC it will check this flag and if the HTLC is not
from the source hop, the HTLC will be rejected.
htlcswitch/switch: adding check for RejectHTLC flag and incomingChanID
This commit adds a check when receiving UpdateAddHTLC. The check looks
for the RejectHTLC flag set and whether the HTLC is from the sourceHop
(the local switch). If the HTLC is not from the sourceHop, then we
reject the HTLC and return a FailChannelDisabled error.
server: adding RejectHTLC field to initialization of switch
lnd_test: adding test for RejectHTLC
This commit adds a test which tests that a node with the --rejecthtlc
flag will reject any onward HTLCs but still can receive direct HTLCs and
can send HTLCs.
This commit overhauls the interpretation of failed payments. It changes
the interpretation rules so that we always apply the strongest possible
set of penalties, without making assumptions that would hurt good nodes.
Main changes are:
- Apply different rule sets for intermediate and final nodes. Both types
of nodes have different sets of failures that we expect. Penalize nodes
that send unexpected failure messages.
- Distinguish between direct payments and multi-hop payments. For direct
payments, we can infer more about the performance of our peer because we
trust ourselves.
- In many cases it is impossible for the sender to determine which of
the two nodes in a pair is responsible for the failure. In this
situation, we now penalize bidirectionally. This does not hurt the good
node of the pair, because only its connection to a bad node is
penalized.
- Previously we always penalized the outgoing connection of the
reporting node. This is incorrect for policy related failures. For
policy related failures, it could also be that the reporting node
received a wrongly crafted htlc from its predecessor. By penalizing the
incoming channel, we surely hit the responsible node.
- FailExpiryTooSoon is a failure that could have been caused by any node
up to the reporting node by delaying forwarding of the htlc. We don't
know which node is responsible, therefore we now penalize all node pairs
in the route.
Previously a temporary channel failure was returning for unexpected
malformed htlc failures. This is not what we want to communicate to the
sender, because the sender may apply a penalty to us only.
Returning the temporary channel failure is especially problematic if we
ourselves are the sender and the malformed htlc failure comes from our
direct peer. When interpretating the failure, we aren't able to
distinguish anymore between our channel not having enough balance and
our peer sending an unexpected failure back.
When an undecryptable failure comes back for a payment attempt, we
previously only penalized our own outgoing connection. However,
any node could have caused this failure. It is therefore better to
penalize all node connections along the route. Then at least we know for
sure that we will hit the responsible node.
This commit updates existing tests to not rely on mission control for
pruning of local channels. Information about local channels should
already be up to date before path finding starts. If not, the problem
should be fixed where bandwidth hints are set up.
This commit moves the payment outcome interpretation logic into a
separate file. Also, mission control isn't updated directly anymore, but
results are stored in an interpretedResult struct. This allows the
mission control state to be locked for a minimum amount of time and
makes it easier to unit test the result interpretation.
This commit converts several functions from returning a bool and a
failure reason to a nillable failure reason as return parameter. This
will take away confusion about the interpretation of the two separate
values.
Debug invoices are rarely used nowadays, but keep asking for maintenance
every time refactoring in primarily the invoice registry occurs. We have
passed the cost/benefit tipping point, so therefore the debug invoice
concept is removed in this commit.
Previously the debughtlc flag also controlled whether hodl masks were
active. It is safe to remove that additional condition because the hodl
masks are still guarded by the dev build tag.
Previously mission control tracked failures on a per node, per channel basis.
This commit changes this to tracking on the level of directed node pairs. The goal
of moving to this coarser-grained level is to reduce the number of required
payment attempts without compromising payment reliability.
