Unfortunately, we can't use the graph cache directly here as it doesn't
include all the information we need, since it only includes the minimal
amount of information needed for path finding.
Instead, we use a simple mutex guarded cache that evicts itself after a
certain interval. The default is set small enough that most users
shouldn't really notice. We also provide a way to disable the cache, and
also disable the cache in the itests.

payments-expiration-grace-period needs time unit h/m/s or else the lnd does not start.

Corrected minor typo.
This commit adds a new health check, tor connection, to our liveness
monitor. A monitor refactor is applied to the server creation such that
the scope of health check creation is managed within one function.
In this commit we add an extra config for enabling logging to an
external file when using embedded etcd. This can be useful when running
integration tests to see more details about etcd related issues.
As requested by users of node bundle software. They want to use the
wallet-unlock-password-file configuration option in their
default/template config file. This makes the first-time lnd setup a bit
more tricky since lnd will fail with an error if no wallet exists yet
while that config option is used.
The new wallet-unlock-allow-create option instructs lnd to not fail if
no wallet exists yet but instead spin up its unlocker RPC as it would
without the wallet-unlock-password-file being present.
This is not recommended for auto-provisioned or high-security systems
because the wallet creation RPC is unauthenticated and an attacker could
inject a seed while lnd is in that state.
This commit adds height-based invoice expiry for hodl invoices
that have active htlcs. This allows us to cancel our intentionally
held htlcs before channels are force closed. We only add this for
hodl invoices because we expect regular invoices to automatically
be resolved.
We still keep hodl invoices in the time-based expiry queue,
because we want to expire open invoices that reach their timeout
before any htlcs are added. Since htlcs are added after the
invoice is created, we add new htlcs as they arrive in the
invoice registry. In this commit, we allow adding of duplicate
entries for an invoice to be added to the expiry queue as each
htlc arrives to keep implementation simple. Our cancellation
logic can already handle the case where an entry is already
canceled, so this is ok.
In automated or unattended setups such as cluster/container
environments, unlocking the wallet through RPC presents a set of
challenges. Usually the password is present as a file somewhere in the
container already anyway so we might also just read it from there.
This commit also changes the order of DB init to be run after the RPC
server is up. This will allow us to later add an RPC endpoint to be used
to query leadership status.
In this commit we add a new flag that controls if lnd will do strict
zombie pruning or not. If true, then this will cause lnd to maintain a
tighter graph as it wants both edges to always be live. We enable this by
default for neutrino as without this, it's possible that a node never
sees both edges begin disabled, so those edges are never actually pruned
from the graph.
