In this commit, we create a new chainfee package, that houses all fee
related functionality used within the codebase. The creation of this new
package furthers our long-term goal of extracting functionality from the
bloated `lnwallet` package into new distinct packages. Additionally,
this new packages resolves a class of import cycle that could arise if a
new package that was imported by something in `lnwallet` wanted to use
the existing fee related functions in the prior `lnwallet` package.
We no longer attach the RPC client to the lnwallet logging instance as
it can generate a ton of spam in trace mode as it’ll dump the entire
hex encoded blocks, transactions, etc.
The btclog package has been changed to defining its own logging
interface (rather than seelog's) and provides a default implementation
for callers to use.
There are two primary advantages to the new logger implementation.
First, all log messages are created before the call returns. Compared
to seelog, this prevents data races when mutable variables are logged.
Second, the new logger does not implement any kind of artifical rate
limiting (what seelog refers to as "adaptive logging"). Log messages
are outputted as soon as possible and the application will appear to
perform much better when watching standard output.
Because log rotation is not a feature of the btclog logging
implementation, it is handled by the main package by importing a file
rotation package that provides an io.Reader interface for creating
output to a rotating file output. The rotator has been configured
with the same defaults that btcd previously used in the seelog config
(10MB file limits with maximum of 3 rolls) but now compresses newly
created roll files. Due to the high compressibility of log text, the
compressed files typically reduce to around 15-30% of the original
10MB file.
This commit bolsters the logging available within the lnwallet package
by include the logging from both web sockets connections, and the
wtxmgr as part of the exposed package level logging. With this, users
will gain additional avenues for obtaining debug logs from various
parts of the system.
This commit patrons the state update logs properly within the channel
state machine. This change fixes a number of bugs caused by treating a
central log as two logically distinct logs. Rather than having a bit
indicating if the entry is incoming/outgoing, an entry is added to a
remote or local log depending on which modification method is used.
As a result the code is much easier to follow due to separation of
concerts.
Finally, when attempting to sign a new update with an exhausted
renovation window a distinct error is returned in order to allow higher
level callers to properly back-off and handle the protocol event.
