We plan to decode the onions of these `update_add_htlc`s as part of the
HTLC forwarding flow (i.e., `process_pending_htlc_forwards`), so we'll
need to track them per-channel at the `ChannelManager` level.
`htlc_forwards` only returns a `Some` value from
`handle_channel_resumption` if we provide it a non-empty
`pending_forwards`. Since we don't, we'll never have a value to handle.
This commit serves as a stepping stone to moving towards resolving HTLCs
once the HTLC has been fully committed to by both sides.
Currently, we decode HTLC onions immediately upon receiving an
`update_add_htlc`. Doing so determines what we should do with the HTLC:
forward it, or immediately fail it back if it cannot be accepted. This
action is tracked until the HTLC is fully committed to by both sides,
and a new commitment in the latter case is proposed to fully remove the
HTLC. While this has worked so far, it has some minor privacy
implications, as forwarding/failing back do not go through the usual
`PendingHTLCsForwardable` flow. It also presents issues with the
quiescence handshake, as failures through this path do not go through
the holding cell abstraction, leading to a potential violation of the
handshake by sending an `update_fail_*` after already having sent
`stfu`.
Since `pending_inbound_htlcs` are written pre-TLVs, we introduce a new
serialization version in which we change the `PendingHTLCStatus`
serialization of
`InboundHTLC::AwaitingRemoteRevokeToRemove/AwaitingRemovedRemoteRevoke`
to be an option instead. We'll still write it as the current version
(`MIN_SERIALIZATION_VERSION`), but we'll support reading the new version
to allow users to downgrade back to this commit.
We add new macro alternatives to
impl_writeable_for_vec/impl_readable_for_vec that add a length prefix to
each element in the `Vec`. This is intended to be used over the existing
macros when attempting to serialize a `Vec` with elements of variable
lengths.
We can't always assume that we're done reading after using a
FixedLengthReader. In some cases, we may need to read a set of
length-prefixed objects one at a time, and we'd like to do so without
incurring an additional allocation by reading a number of bytes first to
then deserialize them.
Replace instance of ChannelManager in BackgroundProcessor and in
Persister with AChannelManager. This reduces the number of type
parameters need in those types, which would need to be repeated in an
async version of Persister.
Previously, we would just push to the `confirmed_txs` `Vec`, leading to
redundant `Confirm::transactions_confirmed` calls, especially now that
we re-confirm previously disconnected spends.
Here, we ensure that we don't push additional `ConfirmedTx` entries if
already one with matching `Txid` is present. This not only gets rid of
the spurious `transactions_confirmed` calls (which are harmless), but
more importantly saves us from issuing unnecessary network calls, which
improves latency.
With its v24.02 release CLN made `GossipQueries` a required feature,
leading to a incompatibility between LDK and CLN when using
`IgnoringMessagHandler` as a `RoutingMessageHandler`, which is usually
the case when a node uses RGS.
To fix this issue, we let `IgnoringMessagHandler` signal `GossipQuery`
support, just to go ahead and ignore every gossip message the peer will
send us. While this is nonsensical and still might result in some
unnecessary bandwidth wasted, we have to do something to fix the
incompatibility.
Before a force closure from timed out HTLCs was treated the same as when
the user manually force closed the channel. This leads to various UX
issues. This adds a new `ClosureReason` called `HTLCsTimedOut` that
signifies that the closure was caused because the HTLCs timed out. To go
along with this, previously we'd always send "Channel force-closed" when
force closing the channel in the error message which was ambigous, now
we send the force closure reason so the peer can know why the channel
was closed.
Use OnionMessenger's public interface in tests whenever possible (i.e.,
when not using any intermediate_nodes in an OnionMessagePath. This
allows us to exercise DefaultMessageRouter, and, in particular that a
path can be found for an unannounced sender when its in the introduction
node.
DefaultMessageRouter will form an OnionMessagePath from a BlindedPath
where the sender is the introduction node but only if the sender is
announced. If the sender is unannounced, then DefaultMessageRouter will
fail. While DefaultMessageRouter will only create a blinded path with an
announced introduction node, it may receive one where the introduction
node is unannounced. Don't return an error in this case, as the
OnionMessenger can advance the blinded path by one hop.
This may occur when two nodes have an unannounced channel and one (the
offer creator) wants to use it for payments without an intermediary node
and without putting its node id in the offer.
Previously, we would track a spending transaction but wouldn't account
for it being reorged out of the chain, in which case we wouldn't monitor
the `WatchedOutput`s until they'd be reloaded on restart.
Here, we keep any `WatchedOutput`s around until their spends are
sufficiently confirmed and only prune them after `ANTI_REORG_DELAY`.
This is useful for users that track channels by `user_channel_id`.
For example, in `lightning-liquidity` we currently keep a full
`HashMap<ChanelId, u128>` around *just* to be able to associate
`PaymentForwarded` events with the channels otherwise tracked by
`user_channel_id`.
