This allows a caller to ensure to optimistically shut down the link
if the channel is clean. If the channel is not clean, an error is
returned and the link continues functioning as normal. The caller
should also call RemoveLink to ensure that the link isn't seen as
usable within the switch.
In lnd, log messages about channels are generally logged with a
reference to their channel point rather than the short channel id.
Channel point is reorg-resistant and also easier to look up in for
example a block explorer.
In the link however, all log messages are accompanied by short channel
id. This makes it difficult to grep a log for all channel activity. The
PEER message for example which are often crucial to analyse, are logged
with channel points.
This commit modifies the link logging to also use channel points.
Until now, clients of SubscribeHTLCEvents didn't have access to the settled preimage. The API allows to intercept forward event and to be updated on forward events however the forward+settle event does not include the payment preimage. This pr changes allows it.
This commit caps the update fee the initiator will send when the anchors
channel type is used. We do not limit anything on the receiver side.
10 sat/vbyte is the current default max fee rate we use. This should be
enough to ensure propagation before anchoring down the commitment
transaction.
Since it turned out borking channels on every received error could cause
us to bork channels in case of a sync error with C-lightning, we revert
this for now.
This commit changes the logic when garbage collecting forwarding
packages such that they are removed once when the function is called,
and then again upon subsequent ticks. This allows us to bump the
peer timer to 1 hour to limit the number of db transactions happening
in lnd. The forwarding packages need to be removed initially as
otherwise a flappy node will never have them garbage collected.
As part of the preparation to the switch interceptor feature, this
function is changed to return error instead of error channel that
is closed automatically.
Returning an error channel has become complex to maintain and
implement when adding more asynchronous flows to the switch.
The change doesn't affect the current behavior which logs the
errors as before.
This commit extends the link with a new synchronous delivery point for
local UpdateAddHTLC messages. The switch method SendHTLC is updated to
use this delivery point and thereby becomes a synchronous call.
For MPP payments, synchronous hand-off is important. Otherwise the next
pathfinding round could start without the channel balance updated yet.
This commit adds a PendingCommitTicker to the link config, which allows
us to control how quickly we fail the link if the commitment dance
stalls. Now that the mailbox has the ability to cancel packets, when the
link fails it will reset the mailbox packets on exit, forcing a
reevaluation of the HTLCs against their mailbox expiries.
Now that packet failure is handled by the mailbox, we can now enforce
a delivery deadline and fail the packet if it the deadilne is exceeded.
This gives senders quicker feedback about tried routes, and allows them
to try alternative paths to the destination in the meantime.
This commit moves the current logic for sending failures out of the link
and into the mailbox in preparation for our failing delayed htlcs. We do
so because the mailbox may need to fail packets while the link is
offline, and needs to be able to complete the task without member
methods on the link.
This commit removes the overflowQueue from the link. We do so in order
to promote better UX for senders, so that HTLCs are failed faster when
the commitment is full. This gives the sender the opportunity to try
another, more open path, rather than perceive the HTLC as being stuck.
At the same time, we remove the total number of active goroutines in lnd
by a factor of N where N is the number of active channels.
The linter complains about not checking the return value from
WipeChannel in certain places. Instead of checking we simply remove the
returned error because the in-memory modifications cannot fail.
This commit modifies updateCommitTx to error with ErrLinkShuttingDown
when we try to send a ContractUpdate on the htlcUpdates chan and the
link has closed the quit chan. It also changes the order of the call
to ackDownStreamPackets and contract update call for consistency since
the packets should be acknowledged before the link goes down.
This commit adds link failure notifications for failures which occur
on our incoming link. These failures may be receives which we failed or
forwards which we could not parse.
This commit adds notifications for htlcs which are forwarded through
our node. Forwards are notified when the htlc is added on our ougoing
link, settles when we send a settle message to the downstream peer.
If a failure occurs, we check whether it occurred at our node, then
notify a link or forwarding failure accordingly.
Note that this change also adds forward event notifications for sends
which are initiated by our node because the handling code for adding
a htlc which originates from our node is the same as that for handling
forwards. Htlcs for our locally initiated sends have our internal pid
set in the incoming htlcs id field, so we extract this value and notify
with a zero htlc id to be consistent with receives (which have zero
outgoing circuits). Subsequent settles or failures are not noitfied
for local sends in this commit, and will be handled in a follow up.
In this commit, a htlcNotifier interface is added to allow for easy
unit testing. Instances of the HtlcNotifier are added to the server,
switch and link.
Since we want to handle the edge case where paying the HTLC fee would
take the initiator below the reserve, we move the subtraction of the
reserve into availableBalance where this calculation will be performed.
