`Julian Knutsen <julianknutsen@users.noreply.github.com>` pointed
out in a previous discussion that `read_event` can reenter user
code despite the documentation stating explicitly that it will not.
This was addressed in #456 by simply codifying the reentrancy, but
its somewhat simpler to just drop the `do_attempt_write_data` call.
Ideally we could land most of Julian's work, but its still in need
of substantial git history cleanup to get it in a reviewable state
and this solves the immediate issue.
We can never assume that messages were reliably delivered whether
we placed them in the socket or not, so there isn't a lot of use in
explicitly handling the case that a peer was not connected when we
went to send it a message.
Two TODOs are left for the generation of a `FundingAbandoned` (or
similar) event, though it ultimately belongs in `ChannelManager`.
Previously, poll::Validate was pub(crate) to force external implementors
of Poll to define their implementation in terms of ChainPoller. This was
because ChainPoller::look_up_previous_header checks for consistency
between headers and any errors would be checked at that level rather
than by the caller. Otherwise, if performed by the caller, a Poll
implementation would not be aware if the underlying BlockSource was
providing bad data and therefore couldn't react accordingly.
Widening the visibility to pub relaxes this requirement, although it's
still encourage to use ChainPoller to implement Poll. This permits
either copying or moving lightning-block-sync's test utilities to a
separate crate since they use poll::Validate.
Latest rustc warns that "this URL is not a hyperlink" and notes that
"bare URLs are not automatically turned into clickable links". This
resolves those warnings.
Thanks to Joshua Nelson for pointing out the correct syntax for
this.
Lightning invoices allow for zero or more multi-hop route hints. Update
get_route's interface to accept such hints, although only the last hop
from each is used for the time being.
Moves RouteHint from lightning-invoice crate to lightning crate. Adds a
PrivateRoute wrapper around RouteHint for use in lightning-invoice.
VecReadWrapper is only used in TLVs so there is no need to prepend
a length before writing/reading the objects - we can instead simply
read until we reach the end of the TLV stream.
This substantially improves deserialization performance when LLVM
decides not to inline many short methods, eg when not building
with LTO/codegen-units=1.
Even with the default bench params of LTO/codegen-units=1, the
serialization benchmarks on an Intel 2687W v3 take:
test routing::network_graph::benches::read_network_graph ... bench: 1,955,616,225 ns/iter (+/- 4,135,777)
test routing::network_graph::benches::write_network_graph ... bench: 165,905,275 ns/iter (+/- 118,798)
