We seek a certain number of peers at each level of gossip; 3 "flood"
if we're missing gossip, 2 at 24 hours past to catch recent gossip, and
8 with current gossip. The rest are given a filter which causes them
not to gossip to us at all.

The first sign that we're missing gossip is that we get a channel_update
for an unknown channel. The peer might be wrong (or lying), but if it turns
out to be a real channel, we were definitely missing something.
This patch does two things: queries when we get an unknown channel_update,
and then notes that a channel_announcement was from such an update when
it's finally processed.

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).

Up until now we only generated these in dev mode for testing. Hoist

I decided to try a faster implementation, only to find our crc32c was
not correct! Ouch.
I removed the crc32c functions from ccan/crc, and added a new crc32c
module which has the Mark Adler x86-64-optimized variants.
We bump gossip_store version again, since csums have changed.

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.

We have a problem: if we get halfway through writing the compacted store
and run out of disk space, we've already changed half the indexes.
This changes it so we do nothing until writing is finished: then we
iterate through and update indexes. It also weans us off broadcast
ordering, which we can now eliminated.

(We don't increment the gossip_store version, since there are only a
few commits since the last time we did this).
This lets the reader simply filter messages; this is especially nice since
the channel_announcement timestamp is *derived*, not in the actual message.
This also creates a 'struct gossip_hdr' which makes the code a bit
clearer.

Keeping the uintmap ordering all the broadcastable messages is expensive:
130MB for the million-channels project. But now we delete obsolete entries
from the store, we can have the per-peer daemons simply read that sequentially
and stream the gossip itself.
This is the most primitive version, where all gossip is streamed;
successive patches will bring back proper handling of timestamp filtering
and initial_routing_sync.
We add a gossip_state field to track what's happening with our gossip
streaming: it's initialized in gossipd, and currently always set, but
once we handle timestamps the per-peer daemon may do it when the first
filter is sent.

There's a corner case where otherwise a reader could see the header and

They already send *us* gossip messages, so they have to be distinct anyway.
Why make us both do extra work?
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
We use the high bit of the length field: this way we can still check
that the checksums are valid on deleted fields.
Once this is done, serially reading the gossip_store file will result
in a complete, ordered, minimal gossip broadcast. Also, the horrible
corner case where we might try to delete things from the store during
load time is completely gone: we only load non-deleted things.

We're about to bump version again, and the code to upgrade it was
quite hairy (and buggy!). It's not worthwhile for such a
poorly-tested path: I will just add code to limit how much incoming
gossip we get to avoid flooding when we upgrade, however.
I also use a modern gossip_store version in our test_gossip_store_load
test, instead of relying on the upgrade path.

Now we handle node_announcements properly, we have a failure case where we
try to move them when a channel is deleted while loading the store.
We're going to remove this soon, in favor of in-place delete, so
workaround this for now to avoid an assert() when we try to write to
the store while loading.
Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
When we first receive a channel_update, we write both the
channel_announcement and that channel_update to the store: we need
that first update so we can set the channel_announcement timestamp.
However, the channel_update can be replaced later. This means we can
have a channel_announcement, a node_update which relies on it, then
the channel_update later.
So move the "this applies to a pending announcement" check lower, where
gossip_store can use it too. Has a nice side-effect of avoiding
one lookup of the node id.

Fix a path where tal_free is called on an uninitialized variable
If the first `goto bad_total` executes, then that path has

This was noticed by a maybe-uninitialized heuristic on gcc 7.4.0:

This has two effects: most importantly, it avoids the problem where
lightningd creates a 800MB JSON blob in response to listchannels,
which causes OOM on the Raspberry Pi (our previous max allocation was
832MB). This is because lightning-cli can start draining the JSON
while we're filling the buffer, so we end up with a max allocation of
68MB.
But despite being less efficient (multiple queries to gossipd), it
actually speeds things up due to the parallelism:

Do it inside the can_reach() function, which is less optimal for BFG
which does 20 ops on the same channel, but fine for Dijkstra.
This does have a measurable cost, so we might want to use
non-cryptographic fuzz in future:
$ gossipd/test/run-bench-find_route 100000 100:
Before:
100 (100 succeeded) routes in 100000 nodes in 97346 msec (973461784 nanoseconds per route)

Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
If a route is too long, we try to bias Dijkstra towards choosing a
shorter route by adding a per-hop cost. We do a naive "shortest path"
pass, then using that cost as a ceiling on per-hop cost, we do a
binary search.
There are some subtleties: we use risk rather than total as our
counter field (we normally bias this by 1 anyway, so it's easy to make
that a variable), and we set riskfactor to a mimimal value once we're
iterating. It's good enough to get a solution, we don't need to do a
2-dimensional search on riskfactor and riskbias.
Of course, this is extremely slow if we hit it on our benchmark,
though it doesn't happen in a more realistic network:
