- Enabled `create_blinded_paths` to accept `MessageContext` TLVs as
an input field.
- `MessageContext` is intended to be sent along with the `reply_path`
to the counterparty.
- Added `MessageContext` in the `create_blinded_paths` flow, optionally
appending it within the `reply_path`.
- Updated tests to verify the new feature.
1. Handling Offers Data:
- Updated `handle_message` to accept `OffersContext` data as an input field.
- If it is present, it will be utilized by the handler to
abandon outbound payments that have failed for any reason.
2. Consistency in Custom Message Handling:
- Updated `handle_custom_message` to accept optional custom data.
for consistency.
- Note: `custom_data` will remain unused in this PR.
1. New Enum for Enhanced Data Handling:
- Introduced the `MessageContext` enum, which allows the node to include
additional context data along with the `reply_path` sent to the counterparty.
- The node anticipates receiving this data back for further processing.
2. Variants in MessageContext:
- The `MessageContext` enum includes two variants: "Offers" and
"Context"
- One of the variants, `Offers`, holds the `payment_id`
of the associated Outbound BOLT12 Payment.
3. Future Usage:
- This enum will be utilized in a subsequent commit to abandon outbound
payments that have failed to complete for various reasons.
There is no diff when running against main, so we skip incremental-mutants.
Before this commit, we'd get `Error: Failed to parse diff: Line 1: Error while parsing:`
as the diff file was empty.
When the `htlc_maximum_msat` field was made mandatory in
`ChannelUpdate` (in b0e8b739b7) we
started ignoring the `message_flags` field entirely and always
writing `1`. The comment updates indicated that the `message_flags`
field was deprecated, but this is not true - only the
`htlc_maximum_msat` indicator bit was deprecated, requiring it to
be 1.
If a node creates a `channel_update` with `message_flags` bits set
other than the low bit, this will cause us to spuriously reject
the message with an invalid signature error as we will check the
message against the wrong hash.
With today's current spec this is totally fine - the only other bit
defined for `message_flags` is the `dont_forward` bit, which when
set indicates we shouldn't accept the message into our gossip store
anyway (though this may lead to spurious `warning` messages being
sent to peers). However, in the future this may mean we start
rejecting valid `channel_update`s if new bits are defiend.
- Remove unused unavailable signers in TestKeysInterface
- Remove unnecessary display implementation for SignerOp
- Move set of test disabled signer ops to EnforcementState
- Add method to enable/disable all signer ops at once
We introduce a CI job for mutation testing of PR diffs using cargo-mutants.
Missed cases do not trigger a fail of this job yet as we just introduce it
now for visibility. We may start enforcing stricter rules at a later stage.
Though we generally shouldn't be seeing these, and the
`get_dust_buffer_feerate` implementation will still return
`u32::MAX` in spite of the overflow, we should handle the overflow
to avoid panic when `debug_assertions` are enabled.

Add a trait for handling async payments messages to OnionMessenger. This allows
users to either provide their own custom handling for async payments messages
or rely on a version provided by LDK.
This change implements non-strict forwarding, allowing the node to
forward an HTLC along a channel other than the one specified
by short_channel_id in the onion message, so long as the receiver has
the same node public key intended by short_channel_id
([BOLT](57ce4b1e05/04-onion-routing.md (non-strict-forwarding))).
This can improve payment reliability when there are multiple channels
with the same peer e.g. when outbound liquidity is replenished by
opening a new channel.
The implemented forwarding strategy now chooses the channel with the
lowest outbound liquidity that can forward an HTLC to maximize the
probability of being able to successfully forward a subsequent HTLC.
Fixes#1278.
Currently, every block connection triggers the persistence of all
ChannelMonitors with an updated best_block. This approach poses
challenges for large node operators managing thousands of channels.
Furthermore, it leads to a thundering herd problem
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thundering_herd_problem), overwhelming
the storage with simultaneous requests.
To address this issue, we now persist ChannelMonitors at a
regular cadence, spreading their persistence across blocks to
mitigate spikes in write operations.
Outcome: After doing this, Ldk's IO footprint should be reduced
by ~50 times. The processing time required to sync each block
will be significantly reduced, particularly for nodes with 1000s
of channels, as write latency plays a significant role in this process.
As a result, the Node/ChainMonitor will be blocked for a shorter
duration, leading to further efficiency gains.
When creating blinded paths, introduction nodes are limited to peers
with at least three channels to prevent easily guessing the recipient.
Relax this check when the recipient is unannounced since they won't be
in the NetworkGraph.
