Introduce two wrapper types for our existing SphinxErrorEncrypter
that are used to represent error encrypters where we're a part of a
blinded route. These encrypters are functionally the same as a sphinx
encrypter, and are just used as "markers" so that we know that we
need to handle our error differently due to our different role.
We need to persist this information to account for restart cases where
we've resovled the outgoing HTLC, then restart and need to handle the
error for the incoming link. Specifically, this is relevant for:
- On chain resolution messages received after restart
- Forwarding packages that are re-forwarded after restart
This is also generally helpful, because we can store this information
in one place (the circuit) rather than trying to reconstruct it in
various places when forwarding the failure back over the switch.
Add a new subpackage to `lnd/channeldb` to hold some of the types that
are used in the package itself and in other packages that should not
depend on `channeldb`.
In this commit, we add the incoming+outgoing amounts if the HTLC’s that
the payment circuit consists of. With these new fields, we’ll be able
to populate the forwarding event log once the payment circuit has been
successfully completed.
This changes the circuit map internals and API to reference circuits
by a primary key of (channel ID, HTLC ID) instead of paymnet
hash. This is because each circuit has a unique offered HTLC, but
there may be multiple circuits for a payment hash with different
source or destination channels.
This commit renames the Deobfuscator interface to ErrorDecrypter and
the Obfuscator interface to ErrorEncrypter. With this rename, the
purpose of these two interfaces are a bit clearer.
Additionally, DecryptError (which was formerly Deobfuscate) now
directly returns an ForwardingError type instead of the
lnwire.FailureMessage.
Within the network, it's important that when an HTLC forwarding failure
occurs, the recipient is notified in a timely manner in order to ensure
that errors are graceful and not unknown. For that reason with
accordance to BOLT №4 onion failure obfuscation have been added.
This commit gives the start for making the htlc manager and htlc switch
testable. The testability of htlc switch have been achieved by mocking
all external subsystems. The concrete list of updates:
1. create standalone package for htlc switch.
2. add "ChannelLink" interface, which represent the previous htlc link.
3. add "Peer" interface, which represent the remote node inside our
subsystem.
4. add htlc switch config to htlc switch susbystem, which stores the
handlers which are not elongs to any of the above interfaces.
With this commit we are able test htlc switch even without having
the concrete implementation of Peer, ChannelLink structures, they will
be added later.
