This commit allows the peer to be tested without relying on a raw
htlcswitch.Switch pointer. This is accomplished by using a messageSwitch
interface and adding the CreateAndAddLink method to the
htlcswitch.Switch.
This commit refactors the remaining usage of WriteElements. By
replacing the interface types with concrete types for the params used in
the methods, most of the encoding of the messages now takes zero heap
allocations.
This commit changes the WriteElement and WriteElements methods to take a
write buffer instead of io.Writer. The corresponding Encode methods are
changed to use the write buffer.
This commit changes the method WriteMessage to use bytes.Buffer to save
heap allocations. A unit test is added to check the method is
implemented as expected.
Because we now get one more update per channel when closing it, we need
to update our test that looks at the close notifications sent by the
SubscribeChannelEvent RPC.
We want to make sure we can recover funds from a channel that was force
closed by the local node just before the node needed to be restored. We
add a special test case with specific assertions for that scenario.
With one more notification event being dispatched in the local force
close case we need to update one of the integration tests to account for
the additional message.
In case we force close a channel from our end the funds can be time
locked for up to 2 weeks worst case. If something happens to our node in
that time, we don't have any information on that channel anymore because
currently the channel is removed from the channel backup file the moment
the commitment transaction confirms.
Instead we want to keep the channel around in the SCB file until we've
actually swept the time locked funds.
It looks like lnd even supports recovering from such a case if the peer
is still online and can tell us what commit height to use for deriving
the commit point. If the peer isn't around anymore then external tools
could be used to brute force the commit height.
We might want to react to a channel being fully resolved after being
involved in a force close. For this we add a new callback and invoke it
where appropriate.
We'll want to be informed about a channel that's been fully resolved on
chain in case it was involved in a force close. We add a new event type
and emit method for it.
This commit builds on the ideas of @cfromknecht in lnd/5153. The
addition is that the design is now simpler and more robust by queueing
up everything, but allowing maximal parallelism where txns don't block.
Furthermore the commit makes CommitQueue.Done() private essentially
removing the need to understand the queue externally.
This commit fixes an issue where subsequent transaction retries may have
changed the read/write sets inside the STM which in turn left junk
references to these keys in the CommitQueue. The left keys potentially
conflicted with subsequent transactions, queueing them up causing
througput degradation.
This commit uses the require library for the link nodes garbage collect
test and fixes a flake that was discovered while hunting for other
flakes. Some times the channel isn't updated fast enough so we can
detech it on first try. So we give it a few more tries to stabilize the
test.
