Signal GossipQuery support when using IgnoringMessagHandler #2959

@tnull tnull commented Mar 21, 2024

With its v24.02 release CLN made GossipQueries a required feature (see ElementsProject/lightning#6864 and https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#2402---2024-02-27-uint-needs-signature), 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.

No, but I left a comment on the corresponding BOLTs PR: lightning/bolts#1092 (comment)

@TheBlueMatt Even though the feature will be repurposed now and CLN reverted requiring it, I still wonder if we should still land this in 0.0.122 but revert it in 0.0.123 or 0.0.124 to fix the compatibility issues with current CLN versions in the meantime?

LGTM. Yea, doing this for a release then reverting it makes sense to me. It looks like CLN will do a point release for this so hopefully it all resolves quickly.

v0.0.123 - May 08, 2024 - "BOLT12 Dust Sweeping"

API Updates
===========

 * To reduce risk of force-closures and improve HTLC reliability the default
   dust exposure limit has been increased to
   `MaxDustHTLCExposure::FeeRateMultiplier(10_000)`. Users with existing
   channels might want to consider using
   `ChannelManager::update_channel_config` to apply the new default (lightningdevkit#3045).
 * `ChainMonitor::archive_fully_resolved_channel_monitors` is now provided to
   remove from memory `ChannelMonitor`s that have been fully resolved on-chain
   and are now not needed. It uses the new `Persist::archive_persisted_channel`
   to inform the storage layer that such a monitor should be archived (lightningdevkit#2964).
 * An `OutputSweeper` is now provided which will automatically sweep
   `SpendableOutputDescriptor`s, retrying until the sweep confirms (lightningdevkit#2825).
 * After initiating an outbound channel, a peer disconnection no longer results
   in immediate channel closure. Rather, if the peer is reconnected before the
   channel times out LDK will automatically retry opening it (lightningdevkit#2725).
 * `PaymentPurpose` now has separate variants for BOLT12 payments, which
   include fields from the `invoice_request` as well as the `OfferId` (lightningdevkit#2970).
 * `ChannelDetails` now includes a list of in-flight HTLCs (lightningdevkit#2442).
 * `Event::PaymentForwarded` now includes `skimmed_fee_msat` (lightningdevkit#2858).
 * The `hashbrown` dependency has been upgraded and the use of `ahash` as the
   no-std hash table hash function has been removed. As a consequence, LDK's
   `Hash{Map,Set}`s no longer feature several constructors when LDK is built
   with no-std; see the `util::hash_tables` module instead. On platforms that
   `getrandom` supports, setting the `possiblyrandom/getrandom` feature flag
   will ensure hash tables are resistant to HashDoS attacks, though the
   `possiblyrandom` crate should detect most common platforms (lightningdevkit#2810, lightningdevkit#2891).
 * `ChannelMonitor`-originated requests to the `ChannelSigner` can now fail and
   be retried using `ChannelMonitor::signer_unblocked` (lightningdevkit#2816).
 * `SpendableOutputDescriptor::to_psbt_input` now includes the `witness_script`
   where available as well as new proprietary data which can be used to
   re-derive some spending keys from the base key (lightningdevkit#2761, lightningdevkit#3004).
 * `OutPoint::to_channel_id` has been removed in favor of
   `ChannelId::v1_from_funding_outpoint` in preparation for v2 channels with a
   different `ChannelId` derivation scheme (lightningdevkit#2797).
 * `PeerManager::get_peer_node_ids` has been replaced with `list_peers` and
   `peer_by_node_id`, which provide more details (lightningdevkit#2905).
 * `Bolt11Invoice::get_payee_pub_key` is now provided (lightningdevkit#2909).
 * `Default[Message]Router` now take an `entropy_source` argument (lightningdevkit#2847).
 * `ClosureReason::HTLCsTimedOut` has been separated out from
   `ClosureReason::HolderForceClosed` as it is the most common case (lightningdevkit#2887).
 * `ClosureReason::CooperativeClosure` is now split into
   `{Counterparty,Locally}Initiated` variants (lightningdevkit#2863).
 * `Event::ChannelPending::channel_type` is now provided (lightningdevkit#2872).
 * `PaymentForwarded::{prev,next}_user_channel_id` are now provided (lightningdevkit#2924).
 * Channel init messages have been refactored towards V2 channels (lightningdevkit#2871).
 * `BumpTransactionEvent` now contains the channel and counterparty (lightningdevkit#2873).
 * `util::scid_utils` is now public, with some trivial utilities to examine
   short channel ids (lightningdevkit#2694).
 * `DirectedChannelInfo::{source,target}` are now public (lightningdevkit#2870).
 * Bounds in `lightning-background-processor` were simplified by using
   `AChannelManager` (lightningdevkit#2963).
 * The `Persist` impl for `KVStore` no longer requires `Sized`, allowing for
   the use of `dyn KVStore` as `Persist` (lightningdevkit#2883, lightningdevkit#2976).
 * `From<PaymentPreimage>` is now implemented for `PaymentHash` (lightningdevkit#2918).
 * `NodeId::from_slice` is now provided (lightningdevkit#2942).
 * `ChannelManager` deserialization may now fail with `DangerousValue` when
    LDK's persistence API was violated (lightningdevkit#2974).

Bug Fixes
=========

 * Excess fees on counterparty commitment transactions are now included in the
   dust exposure calculation. This lines behavior up with some cases where
   transaction fees can be burnt, making them effectively dust exposure (lightningdevkit#3045).
 * `Future`s used as an `std::...::Future` could grow in size unbounded if it
   was never woken. For those not using async persistence and using the async
   `lightning-background-processor`, this could cause a memory leak in the
   `ChainMonitor` (lightningdevkit#2894).
 * Inbound channel requests that fail in
   `ChannelManager::accept_inbound_channel` would previously have stalled from
   the peer's perspective as no `error` message was sent (lightningdevkit#2953).
 * Blinded path construction has been tuned to select paths more likely to
   succeed, improving BOLT12 payment reliability (lightningdevkit#2911, lightningdevkit#2912).
 * After a reorg, `lightning-transaction-sync` could have failed to follow a
   transaction that LDK needed information about (lightningdevkit#2946).
 * `RecipientOnionFields`' `custom_tlvs` are now propagated to recipients when
   paying with blinded paths (lightningdevkit#2975).
 * `Event::ChannelClosed` is now properly generated and peers are properly
   notified for all channels that as a part of a batch channel open fail to be
   funded (lightningdevkit#3029).
 * In cases where user event processing is substantially delayed such that we
   complete multiple round-trips with our peers before a `PaymentSent` event is
   handled and then restart without persisting the `ChannelManager` after having
   persisted a `ChannelMonitor[Update]`, on startup we may have `Err`d trying to
   deserialize the `ChannelManager` (lightningdevkit#3021).
 * If a peer has relatively high latency, `PeerManager` may have failed to
   establish a connection (lightningdevkit#2993).
 * `ChannelUpdate` messages broadcasted for our own channel closures are now
   slightly more robust (lightningdevkit#2731).
 * Deserializing malformed BOLT11 invoices may have resulted in an integer
   overflow panic in debug builds (lightningdevkit#3032).
 * In exceedingly rare cases (no cases of this are known), LDK may have created
   an invalid serialization for a `ChannelManager` (lightningdevkit#2998).
 * Message processing latency handling BOLT12 payments has been reduced (lightningdevkit#2881).
 * Latency in processing `Event::SpendableOutputs` may be reduced (lightningdevkit#3033).

Node Compatibility
==================

 * LDK's blinded paths were inconsistent with other implementations in several
   ways, which have been addressed (lightningdevkit#2856, lightningdevkit#2936, lightningdevkit#2945).
 * LDK's messaging blinded paths now support the latest features which some
   nodes may begin relying on soon (lightningdevkit#2961).
 * LDK's BOLT12 structs have been updated to support some last-minute changes to
   the spec (lightningdevkit#3017, lightningdevkit#3018).
 * CLN v24.02 requires the `gossip_queries` feature for all peers, however LDK
   by default does not set it for those not using a `P2PGossipSync` (e.g. those
   using RGS). This change was reverted in CLN v24.02.2 however for now LDK
   always sets the `gossip_queries` feature. This change is expected to be
   reverted in a future LDK release (lightningdevkit#2959).

Security
========
0.0.123 fixes a denial-of-service vulnerability which we believe to be reachable
from untrusted input when parsing invalid BOLT11 invoices containing non-ASCII
characters.
 * BOLT11 invoices with non-ASCII characters in the human-readable-part may
   cause an out-of-bounds read attempt leading to a panic (lightningdevkit#3054). Note that all
   BOLT11 invoices containing non-ASCII characters are invalid.
