This commit makes the weightedChoice algorithm take a slice of weights
instead of a map of node scores. This let us avoid costly map allocation
and iteration.
In addition we make the chooseN algorithm keep track of the remaining
nodes by keeping a slice of weights through its entire run, similarly
avoiding costly map allocation and iteration.
In total this brings the runtime of the TestChooseNSample testcase down
from ~73s to ~3.6s.
Update is necessary to get protoc to generate files in the right
directory when using modules outside the gopath. The old version of this
dependency did not support paths=source_relative.
This commit also fixes a build error in lnd_test.go because of a
slight difference in generated code.
Previously, nursery generated and published its own sweep txes. It
stored the sweep tx in nursery_store to prevent a new tx with a new
sweep address from being generated on restart.
In this commit, sweep generation and publication is removed from nursery
and delegated to the sweeper. Also the confirmation notification is
received from the sweeper.
In this commit, the sweep package is extended from just tx generation to
an active sweeper that collects sweep inputs and autonomously proceeds
to publish the sweep tx after the batch window time interval has passed
without new inputs being added.
This commit is a preparation for the implementation of remote spend
detection. Remote spends may happen before we broadcast our own sweep
tx. This calls for accurate height hints.
We need to distinguish an lnd build for the purpose of integration
testing from a regular dev build. This makes it possible to adapt
parameters to let integration tests run faster (for example:
sweeper batch window).
In this commit, we fix a minor discrepancy with the spec. We should
return a FinalFailExpiryTooSoon error, rather than a
FinalFailIncorrectCltvExpiry error, when the last HTLC of a route (exit
hop) has an expiration height that is deemed too soon by the final
destination of the HTLC.
In this commit, we remove the per channel `sigPool` within the
`lnwallet.LightningChannel` struct. With this change, we ensure that as
the number of channels grows, the number of gouroutines idling in the
sigPool stays constant. It's the case that currently on the daemon, most
channels are likely inactive, with only a hand full actually
consistently carrying out channel updates. As a result, this change
should reduce the amount of idle CPU usage, as we have less active
goroutines in select loops.
In order to make this change, the `SigPool` itself has been publicly
exported such that outside callers can make a `SigPool` and pass it into
newly created channels. Since the sig pool now lives outside the
channel, we were also able to do away with the Stop() method on the
channel all together.
Finally, the server is the sub-system that is currently responsible for
managing the `SigPool` within lnd.
In this commit, we aim to revamp the `INSTALL.md` file in order to make
it easier to parse, and more explicit. We've added a table of contents
to allow users to skip down to relevant sections and obtain a snapshot
of the contents of the document. Additionally, we've now modified the
headings to express a more clear delineation of the various sections.
