This commit reduces the compare set size the STM will submit in
transactions by adding only the bucket keys along the bucket path to a
specific lock set. This lock set then used to filter the read set,
effectively removing all read only keys from the transaction predicate
that are not bucket keys.
By tracking if a read-write tx actually changes something, we can also
"bump" the mod revision of the bucket keys.
With this trick we essentially implement a read-write lock for our
bucket structure greatly reducing transaction processing time.
The channeldb implements the persistent storage engine for lnd and
generically a data storage layer for the required state within the Lightning
Network. The backing storage engine is
boltdb, an embedded pure-go key-value store
based off of LMDB.
The package implements an object-oriented storage model with queries and
mutations flowing through a particular object instance rather than the database
itself. The storage implemented by the objects includes: open channels, past
commitment revocation states, the channel graph which includes authenticated
node and channel announcements, outgoing payments, and invoices
