In this commit, we modify our gossip broadcast logic to ensure that we
always will send out our own gossip messages regardless of the
filtering/feature policies of the peer.
Before this commit, it was possible that when we went to broadcast an
announcement, none of our peers actually had us as a syncer peer (lnd
terminology). In this case, the FilterGossipMsg function wouldn't do
anything, as they don't have an active timestamp filter set. When we go
to them merge the syncer map, we'd add all these peers we didn't send
to, meaning we would skip them when it came to broadcast time.
In this commit, we now split things into two phases: we'll broadcast
_our_ own announcements to all our peers, but then do the normal
filtering and chunking for the announcements we got from a remote peer.

In this commit, we add a new option for the existing confirmation
notification system that optionally allows the caller to specify that a
block should be included as well.
The only quirk w/ the implementation here is the neutrino backend:
usually we get filtered blocks, we so need to first fetch the block
again so we can deliver the full block to the notifier. On the notifier
end, it'll only be checking for the transactions we care about, to
sending a full block doesn't affect the correctness.
We also extend the `testBatchConfirmationNotification` test to assert
that a block is only included if the caller specifies it.
An OptionalMsgField has been added that allows outside subsystems
to provide a short channel id we should insert into a ChannelUpdate
that we then sign and send to our peer.
When the gossiper receives a ChannelUpdate, it will query the
alias manager by the passed-in FindBaseByAlias function to determine
if the short channel id in the ChannelUpdate points to a known
channel. If this lookup returns an error, we'll fallback to using
the original id in the ChannelUpdate when querying the router.
The lookup and potential fallback must occur in order to properly
lock the multimutex, query the correct router channels, and rate
limit the correct short channel id. An unfortunate side effect of
receiving ChannelUpdates from our peer that reference on of our
aliases rather than the real SCID is that we must store this policy.
Yet it is not broadcast-able. Care has been taken to ensure the
gossiper does not broadcast *any* ChannelUpdate with an alias SCID.
The cachedNetworkMsg uses the new processedNetworkMsg struct. This
is necessary so that delete-and-reinsert in the funding manager
doesn't process a ChannelUpdate twice and end up in a deadlock since
the err chan is no longer being used.
This commit was previously split into the following parts to ease
review:
- 2d746f68: replace imports
- 4008f0fd: use ecdsa.Signature
- 849e33d1: remove btcec.S256()
- b8f6ebbd: use v2 library correctly
- fa80bca9: bump go modules
To simplify the message signing API even further, we refactor the
lnwallet.MessageSigner interface to use a key locator instead of the
public key to identify which key should be signed with.
Adds an optional tx parameter to ForAllOutgoingChannels and FetchChannel
so that data can be queried within the context of an existing database
transaction.
In this commit, we update the existing zombie resurrection test to
ensure that if we prune an edge and another pubkey is marked as nil,
that we only accept a resurrection channel update from the node the we
originally pruned if the pruning decision was one sided.
The recently added gossip throttling was shown to be too aggressive,
especially with our auto channel enable/disable signaling. We switch to
a token bucket based system instead as it's based on time, rather than a
block height which isn't constantly updated at a given rate.
AFAICT it's not possible to flip back from bein synced_to_chain, so we
remove the underlying call that could reflect this. The method is moved
into the test file since it's still used to test correctness of other
portions of the flow.
As similarly done with premature channel announcements, we'll no longer
allow premature channel updates to be rebroadcast once mature. This is
no longer necessary as channel announcements that we're not aware of are
usually broadcast to us with their accompanying channel updates.
In this commit, we add a new option to toggle gossip rate limiting. This
new option can be useful in contexts that require near instant
propagation of gossip messages like integration tests.
This change was largely motivated by an increase in high disk usage as a
result of channel update spam. With an in memory graph, this would've
gone mostly undetected except for the increased bandwidth usage, which
this doesn't aim to solve yet. To minimize the effects to disks, we
begin to rate limit channel updates in two ways. Keep alive updates,
those which only increase their timestamps to signal liveliness, are now
limited to one per lnd's rebroadcast interval (current default of 24H).
Non keep alive updates are now limited to one per block per direction.
This commit adds a reset() closure to the kvdb.View function which will
be called before each retry (including the first) of the view
transaction. The reset() closure can be used to reset external state
(eg slices or maps) where the view closure puts intermediate results.
This commit moves all localized instances of mock implementations of
the Signer interface to the lntest/mock package. This allows us to
remove a lot of code and have it housed under a single interface in
many cases.
The policy update logic that resided part in the gossiper and
part in the rpc server is extracted into its own object.
This prepares for additional validation logic to be added for policy
updates that would otherwise make the gossiper heavier.
It is also a small first step towards separation of our own channel data
from the rest of the graph.
In this commit, we fix a bug where if a user updates a forwarding policy to be
zero, the update will be applied to the policy correctly on-disk, but not
in-memory.
We solve this issue by having the gossiper return the list of on-disk updated
policies and passing these policies to the switch, so the switch can assume
that zero-valued fields are intentional and not just uninitialized.
There's no need to broadcast these as we assume that online nodes have
already received them. For nodes that were offline, they should receive
them as part of their initial graph sync.
Since ActiveSync GossipSyncers no longer synchronize our state with the
remote peers, none of the logic surrounding the round-robin is required
within the SyncManager.
In this commit, we extend the gossiper with support for external callers
to provide optional fields that can serve as useful when processing a
specific network announcement. This will serve useful for light clients,
which are unable to obtain the channel point and capacity for a given
channel, but can provide them manually for their own set of channels.
