It really, really doesn't matter. But we were dramatically reducing
our view of the network:
In my gossip_store (mainnet):
channel_announcement: 30349
channel_update: 55119
node_announcment: 1783

The flat feature PR changes the rules so these are OK to propagate.
That makes sense: the unsupported features means there's something
unsupported about the *node* or *channel*, not the msg itself
(for that we'd use a different message type).

This prevents a gratuitous lookup of we get a late channel_announce,
but even better, it suppresses the "bad gossip" messages in case of
a late channel_update, which have plagued Travis (especially since we
got aggressive in pushing our own updates).

This is a better fix than doing it manually, which turned out
to do it in the wrong order (node_announcement followed by
channel_announcement) anyway.
Should fix many "Bad gossip" messages.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
If we get a channel_update while we're still verifying the channel_announcement
we didn't set the peer pointer, so it didn't get credit. As a result, the
seeker tended to think we were done gossiping sooner than we were.

This is mainly an internal-only change, especially since we don't
offer any globalfeatures.
However, LND (as of next release) will offer global features, and also
expect option_static_remotekey to be a *global* feature. So we send
our (merged) feature bitset as both global and local in init, and fold
those bitsets together when we get an init msg.

It usually means we're missing something, but there's no way to ask what.
Simply start a broad scid probe.

We assume that the time for gossip propagation is < 10 minutes, so by
going back that far from last gossip we won't miss anything,
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
It's simple: if we wouldn't accept the timestamp we see, don't put
the channel in the stale_scid_map.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
We eliminate the "need peer" states and instead check if the
random_peer_softref has been cleared.
We can also unify our restart handlers for all these cases; even the
probe_scids case, by giving gossip credit for the scids as they come
in (at a discount, since scids are 8 bytes vs the ~200 bytes for
normal gossip messages).
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
Since we have to validate, there can be a delay (and peer might
vanish) between receiving the gossip and actually confirming it, hence
the use of softref.
We will use this information to check that the peers are making progress
as we start asking them for specific information.

We do this by keeping a current and an old map, and moving the current to old
every hour or 10,000 entries.

I was seeing some accidental pruning under load / Travis, and in
particular we stopped accepting channel_updates because they were 103
seconds old. But making it too long makes the prune test untenable,
so restore a separate flag that this test can use.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
Now we queue them, we should place a limit. It's not the worst thing in
the world if we discard them (we'll catch up eventually), but we should
try not to in case we're just a bit behind.
Our behaviour here is also O(n^2) so we don't want a massive queue
anyway.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
The first one means we don't discard channels just because we're not
synced, and the second is implied by the spec: don't accept
channel_announcement if the channel isn't 6 deep. Since LND defers in
such cases, we do too (unless it's newer than the current block, in
which case we simply discard). Otherwise there's a risk that a slow
node might discard valid gossip.

Happened under Travis with --dev-fast-gossip (90 second prune time), but can
happen anyway if gossip is almost 2 weeks old when we receive it:

It's generally clearer to have simple hardcoded numbers with an
#if DEVELOPER around it, than apparent variables which aren't, really.
Interestingly, our pruning test was always kinda broken: we have to pass
two cycles, since l2 will refresh the channel once to avoid pruning.
Do the more obvious thing, and cut the network in half and check that
l1 and l3 time out.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
If you send a message which simply changes timestamp and signature, we
drop it. You shouldn't be doing that, and the door to ignoring them
was opened by by option_gossip_query_ex, which would allow clients to
ignore updates with the same checksum.
This is more aggressive at reducing spam messages, but we allow refreshes
(to be conservative, we allow them even when 1/2 of the way through the
refresh period).
I dropped the now-unnecessary sleep from test_gossip_pruning, too.

Make update_local_channel use a timer if it's too soon to make another
update.
1. Implement cupdate_different() which compares two updates.
2. make update_local_channel() take a single arg for timer usage.
3. Set timestamp of non-disable update back 5 minutes, so we can
always generate a disable update if we need to.
4. Make update_local_channel() itself do the "unchanged update" suppression.
gossipd: clean up local channel updates.
5. Keep pointer to the current timer so we override any old updates with
a new one, to avoid a race.

Normally we'd put a pointer into struct half_chan for local
information, but it would be NULL on 99.99% of nodes. Instead, keep a
separate hash table.
This immediately subsumes the previous "map of local-disabled
channels", and will be enhanced further.

For memory-usage reasons, struct chan doesn't use a tal destructor, in
favor of us calling free_chan in the right places.
In DEVELOPER mode, we should check that is the case.

We've been slack, but it's going to be important for testing
ratelimiting. And it currently has a minor memory leak.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
Rather than reaching into data structures, let them register their own
callbacks. This avoids us having to expose "memleak_remove_xxx"
functions, and call them manually.
Under the hood, this is done by having a specially-named tal child of
the thing we want to assist, containing the callback.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
We added a random channel to the list, but we can just free it immediately
(since traversal of a uintmap isn't altered by deletion).
This was introduced in d1f43d993a where we explicitly call free_chan
rather than relying on destructors.

The crashes in #2750 are mostly caused by us trying to partially truncate
the store. The simplest fix for release is to discard the whole thing if
we detect a problem.
This is a workaround: it'd be far nicer to try to recover.
Fixes: #2750
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
We might have channel_announcements which have no channel_update: normally
these don't get written into the store until there is one, but if the
store was truncated it can happen. We then get upset on compaction, since
we don't have an in-memory representation of the channel_announcement.
Similarly, we leave the node_announcement pending until after that
channel_announcement, leading to a similar case.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
We catch node_announcements for nodes where we haven't finished
analyzing the channel_announcement yet (either because we're still
checking UTXO, or in this case, because we're waiting for a channel_update).
But we reference count the pending_node_announce, so if we have
multiple channels pending, we might try to insert it twice. Clear it
so this doesn't happen.
There's a second bug where we continue to catch node_announcements
until *all* the channel_announcements are no longer pending; this is fixed
by removing it from the map.
Fixes: #2735
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
In particular, we'll need to know the short_channel_id if a
channel_update is unknown (implies we're missing a channel), and whether
processing a pending channel_announcement was successful (implies that
the channel was real).
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
This means there's now a semantic difference between the default `fromid`
and setting `fromid` explicitly to our own node_id. In the default case,
it means we don't charge ourselves fees on the route.
This means we can spend the full channel balance.
We still want to consider the pricing of local channels, however:
there's a *reason* to discount one over another, and that is to bias
things. So we add the first-hop fee to the *risk* value instead.
