([#6243]) - Protocol: We may propose mutual close transaction which has a slightly higher fee than the final commitment tx (depending on the outputs, e.g. two taproot outputs). ([#6547]) - Protocol: We now close connection with a peer if adding an HTLC times out (which may be a TCP connectivity issue). ([#6520]) - Plugins: we clean up properly if a plugin fails to start, and we don't kill all processes if it's from `plugin startdir`.

([#6120]) - Protocol: spending unilateral close transactions now use dynamic fees based on deadlines (and RBF), instead of fixed fees. ([#6120]) - Protocol: Allow slight overpaying, even with MPP, as spec now recommends. ([#6138]) - `msggen`: The generated interfaces `cln-rpc` anc `cln-grpc` can now work with a range of versions rather than having to match the CLN version ([#6142]) - `grpc`: The mTLS private keys are no longer group-readable ([#6075]) ### Deprecated Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes. - JSON-RPC: `close`, `fundchannel`, `fundpsbt`, `multifundchannel`, `multiwithdraw`, `txprepare`, `upgradewallet`, `withdraw` `feerate` (`feerange` for `close`) expressed as, "delayed_to_us", "htlc_resolution", "max_acceptable" or "min_acceptable".

([#6069]) ### Deprecated Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes. ### Removed ### Fixed - Plugins: `sql` nodes table now gets refreshed when gossip changes. ([#6068]) - connectd: Fixed a crash on new connections. ([#6070]) - wallet: Don't crash on broken database migrations. ([#6071]) ### EXPERIMENTAL - `experimental-peer-storage`: only send to peers which support it. ([#6072]) [#6068]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/6068 [#6069]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/6069 [#6070]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/6070 [#6071]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/6071 [#6072]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/6072 ## [23.02] - 2023-03-01: "CBDC Backing Layer" This release named by @whitslack NOTE 1: This release contains breaking protocol changes to dual-funding and offers, making them incompatible with previous releases. NOTE 2: Periodic pruning of channels now keeps track of them as 'zombies.' This behavior is in line with the lightning specification but results in fewer nodes and channels listed by `listnodes`/`listpeers`. These channels will resume as soon as the missing side broadcasts a recent channel update. ### Added - Plugins: `sql` plugin command to perform server-side complex queries. ([#5679]) - JSON-RPC: `preapprovekeysend`: New command to preapprove payment details with an HSM. ([#5821]) - JSON-RPC: `preapproveinvoice`: New command to preapprove a BOLT11 invoice with an HSM.

bugfixes and patches. ### Removed - build: `mrkd` and `mistune` not required to build project ### Fixed - lnprototest: builds for lnprototest tests now use 22.04 LTS, which fixes a problem with loading `mako`. ([#5583]) - Plugins: topology plugin could crash when it sees duplicate private channel announcements ([#5593]) - connectd: proper `gossip_store` operation may resolve some previous gossip propagation issues and connectd crashes ([#5591]) - connectd: Fixed a condition for newly created channels that could trigger a need for reconnect. ([#5601]) - `peer_control`: getinfo showing unannounced addresses. ([#5584]) - `peer_control`: getinfo shows the correct port on discovered IPs ([#5585]) [#5583]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/5583 [#5584]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/5584 [#5593]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/5593 [#5591]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/5591 ## [0.12.0] - 2022-08-23: Web-8 init This release named by @adi2011. Developers please note the Great Msat Migration has begun: 1. All JSON amount field names now end in "_msat" (others are deprecated) 2. Their values are strings ending in "msat", but will soon be normal integers. 3. You should accept both: set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test! ### Added - *NEW*: `commando` a new builtin plugin to send/recv peer commands over the lightning network, using runes. ([#5370]) - *NEW*: New built-in plugin `bookkeeper` w/ commands `bkpr-listaccountevents`, `bkpr-listbalances`, `bkpr-listincome`, `bkpr-channelsapy`, `bkpr-dumpincomecsv`, `bkpr-inspect` ([#5071]) - *NEW*: Emergency channel backup ("static backup") which allows us to seek fund recovery from honest peers in case of complete data loss ([#5422]) - Config: `log-level=debug:` supported to get debug-level logs for everything about a peer. ([#5349]) - JSON-RPC: `connect` use the standard port derivation when the port is not specified.

([#5477]) - JSON-RPC: `listpeers` add optional `remote_addr` ([#5244]) - JSON-RPC: `listforwards` now shows `out_channel` in more cases: even if it couldn't actually send to it. ([#5330]) - JSON-RPC: `pay` `attempts` `amount_msat` field. ([#5306]) - Protocol: private channels will only route using short-channel-ids if channel opened with option_scid_alias-supporting peer. ([#5501]) - Protocol: invoice routehints will use fake short-channel-ids for private channels if channel opened with option_scid_alias-supporting peer.

([#5256]) - connectd: fix assert which we could trigger. ([#5256]) [#5256]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/5256 ## [0.11.0.1] - 2022-04-04: Simon's Carefully Chosen Release Name This release would have been named by Simon Vrouwe, had he responded to my emails! This marks the name change to core-lightning (#CLN). ### Added - Protocol: we now support opening multiple channels with the same peer. ([#5078]) - Protocol: we send/receive IP addresses in `init`, and send updated node_announcement when two peers report the same remote_addr (`disable-ip-discovery` suppresses this announcement). ([#5052]) - Protocol: we more aggressively send our own gossip, to improve propagation chances. ([#5200]) - Plugins: `cln-grpc` first class GRPC interface for remotely controlling nodes over mTLS authentication; set `grpc-port` to activate ([#5013]) - Database: With the `sqlite3://` scheme for `--wallet` option, you can now specify a second file path for real-time database backup by separating it from the main file path with a `:` character.

([#5146]) - JSON-RPC: `delinvoice` has a new parameter `desconly` to remove description. ([#5121]) - JSON-RPC: new `setchannel` command generalizes `setchannelfee`: you can now alter the `htlc_minimum_msat` and `htlc_maximum_msat` your node advertizes. ([#5103]) - Config: `htlc-minimum-msat` and `htlc-maximum-msat` to set default values to advertizes for new channels. ([#5136]) - JSON-RPC: `listpeers` now includes a `pushed_msat` value.

([#4985]) - cli: Addition of HSM specific error code in lightning-cli ([#4908]) - config: If the port is unspecified, the default port is chosen according to used network similarly to Bitcoin Core. ([#4900]) - Plugins: `shutdown` notification is now send when lightningd is almost completely shutdown, RPC calls then fail with error code -5. ([#4897]) - Protocol: `signet` addresses and invoices now use `tbs` instead of `tb`. ([#4929]) ### Deprecated Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes. - JSON-RPC: `pay` for a bolt11 which uses a `description_hash`, without setting `description`.

([#4804]) - Build: Python is now required to build, as generated files are no longer checked into the repository. ([#4805]) - pyln-spec: updated to latest BOLT versions. ([#4763]) - JSON-RPC: Change order parameters in the `listforwards` command ([#4668]) - db: We now set a busy timeout to safely allow others to access sqlite3 db (e.g. litestream) ([#4554]) - connectd: Try non-TOR connections first ([#4731]) ### Deprecated Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes. - Protocol: No longer restrict HTLCs to less than 4294967295msat ([#4599]) - Change order of the `status` parameter in the `listforwards` rpc command. ([#4668]) - RPC framework now requires the `"jsonrpc"` property inside the request. ([#4742]) - Plugins: Renames plugin init `use_proxy_always` to `always_use_proxy` ([#4731]) ### Removed ### Fixed - peer: Fixed a crash when a connection is lost outside of a DB transaction ([#4894]) - We now no longer self-limit the number of file descriptors (which limits the number of channels) in sufficiently modern systems, or where we can access `/proc` or `/dev/fd`. We still self-limit on old systems where we cannot find the list of open files on `/proc` or `/dev/fd`, so if you need > ~4000 channels, upgrade or mount `/proc`. ([#4872]) - errors: Errors returning a `channel_update` no longer return an outdated one. ([#4876]) - pay: `listpays` returns payments orderd by their creation date ([#4567]) - pay: `listpays` no longer groups attempts from multiple attempts to pay an invoice ([#4567]) - sqlite3: Relaxed the version match requirements to be at least a minimum version and a major version match ([#4852]) - pay: `pay` would sometimes misreport a final state of `pending` instead of `failed` ([#4803]) - Plugins: C plugins would could leak memory on every command (esp. seen when hammering topology's `listchannels`). ([#4737]) - libplugin: Fatal error messages from `plugin_exit()` now logged in lightningd. ([#4754]) - `openchannel_signed` would fail on PSBT comparison of materially identical PSBTs ([#4752]) - doc: `listnodes` fields now correctly documented. ([#4750]) - EXPERIMENTAL: crash for some users while requesting dual funding leases. ([#4751]) - Plugins: Don't drop complaints about silly channels to `stderr`. ([#4730]) - connectd: Do not try address hint twice ([#4731]) ### EXPERIMENTAL - channel_upgrade draft upgraded: cannot upgrade channels until peers also upgrade. ([#4830]) - bolt12: `chains` in `invoice_request` and invoice is deprecated, `chain` is used instead. ([#4849]) - bolt12: `vendor` is deprecated: the field is now called `issuer`. ([#4849]) - Protocol: Updated `onion_message` support to match updated draft specification (with backwards compat for old version) ([#4800]) - Anchor output mutual close allow a fee higher than the final commitment transaction (as per lightning-rfc #847) ([#4599]) [#4850]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4850 [#4599]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4599 [#4754]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4754 [#4849]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4849 [#4730]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4730 [#4876]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4876 [#4830]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4830 [#4668]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4668 [#4872]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4872 [#4616]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4616 [#4752]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4752 [#4731]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4731 [#4554]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4554 [#4742]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4742 [#4803]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4803 [#4737]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4737 [#4784]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4784 [#4852]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4852 [#4849]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4849 [#4894]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4894 [#4837]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4837 [#4771]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4771 [#4599]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4599 [#4599]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4599 [#4567]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4567 [#4567]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4567 [#4804]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4804 [#4742]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4742 [#4805]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4805 [#4750]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4750 [#4595]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4595 [#4567]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4567 [#4763]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4763 [#4668]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4668 [#4806]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4806 [#4731]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4731 [#4582]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4582 [#4771]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4771 [#4751]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4751 [#4599]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4599 [#4804]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4804 [#4800]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4800 [#4754]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4754 [#4599]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4599 [#4674]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4674 [#4731]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4731 [#4760]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4760 [#4867]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4867 [0.10.2]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/releases/tag/v0.10.2 ## [0.10.1] - 2021-08-09: "eltoo: Ethereum Layer Too" This release named by @nalinbhardwaj. NOTE ONE: Both the dual-funding and offers protocols have changed, and are incompatible with older releases (they're both still draft) #reckless NOTE TWO: `rebalance` and `drain` plugins will need to be redownloaded as older versions will no longer work -- `payment_secret` is now compulsory. ### Added - JSON-RPC: `invoice` now outputs explicit `payment_secret` as its own field. ([#4646]) - JSON-RPC: `listchannels` can be queried by `destination`. ([#4614]) - JSON-RPC: `invoice` now gives `warning_private_unused` if unused unannounced channels could have provided sufficient capacity. ([#4585]) - JSON-RPC: `withdraw`, `close` (and others) now accept taproot (and other future) segwit addresses. ([#4591]) - JSON-RPC: HTLCs in `listpeers` are now annotated with a status if they are waiting on an `htlc_accepted` hook of a plugin. ([#4580]) - JSON-RPC: `close` returns `type` "unopened" if it simply discards channel instead of empty object. ([#4501]) - JSON-RPC: `listfunds` has a new `reserved_to_block` field. ([#4510]) - JSON-RPC: `createonion` RPC command now accepts an optional `onion_size`. ([#4519]) - JSON-RPC: new command `parsefeerate` which takes a feerate string and returns the calculated perkw/perkb ([#4639]) - Protocol: `option_shutdown_anysegwit` allows future segwit versions on shutdown transactions. ([#4556]) - Protocol: We now send and accept `option_shutdown_anysegwit` so you can close channels to v1+ segwit addresses. ([#4591]) - Plugins: Plugins may now send custom notifications that other plugins can subscribe to. ([#4496]) - Plugins: Add `funder` plugin, which allows you to setup a policy for funding v2 channel open requests. Requres --experimental-dual-fund option ([#4489]) - Plugins: `funder` plugin includes command `funderupdate` which will show current funding configuration and allow you to modify them ([#4489]) - Plugins: Restart plugin on `rescan` when binary was changed. ([#4609]) - keysend: `keysend` can now reach non-public nodes by providing the `routehints` argument if they are known. ([#4611]) - keysend: You can now add extra TLVs to a payment sent via `keysend` ([#4610]) - config: `force_feerates` option to allow overriding feerate estimates (mainly for regtest). ([#4629]) - config: New option `log-timestamps` allow disabling of timestamp prefix in logs. ([#4504]) - hsmtool: allow piped passwords ([#4571]) - libhsmd: Added python bindings for `libhsmd` ([#4498]) - libhsmd: Extracted the `hsmd` logic into its own library for other projects to use ([#4497]) - lightningd: we now try to restart if subdaemons are upgraded underneath us. ([#4471]) ### Changed - JSON-RPC: `invoice` now allows creation of giant invoices (>= 2^32 msat) ([#4606]) - JSON-RPC: `invoice` warnings are now better defined, and `warning_mpp_capacity` is no longer included (since `warning_capacity` covers that). ([#4585]) - JSON-RPC: `getroute` is now implemented in a plugin. ([#4585]) - JSON-RPC: `sendonion` no longer requires the gratuitous `direction` and `channel` fields in the `firsthop` parameter. ([#4537]) - JSON-RPC: moved dev-sendcustommsg to sendcustommsg ([#4650]) - JSON-RPC: `listpays` output is now ordered by the `created_at` timestamp. ([#4518]) - JSON-RPC: `listsendpays` output is now ordered by `id`. ([#4518]) - JSON-RPC: `autocleaninvoice` now returns an object, not a raw string. ([#4501]) - JSON-RPC: `fundpsbt` will not include UTXOs that aren't economic (can't pay for their own fees), unless 'all' ([#4509]) - JSON-RPC: `close` now always returns notifications on delays. ([#4465]) - Protocol: All new invoices require a `payment_secret` (i.e. modern TLV format onion) ([#4646]) - Protocol: Allow out-of-bound fee updates from peers, as long as they're not getting *worse* ([#4681]) - Protocol: We can no longer connect to peers which don't support `payment_secret`. ([#4646]) - Protocol: We will now reestablish and negotiate mutual close on channels we've already closed (great if peer has lost their database). ([#4559]) - Protocol: We now assume nodes support TLV onions (non-legacy) unless we have a `node_announcement` which says they don't. ([#4646]) - Protocol: Use a more accurate fee for mutual close negotiation. ([#4619]) - Protocol: channel feerates reduced to bitcoind's "6 block ECONOMICAL" rate. ([#4507]) - keysend now uses 22 for the final CLTV, making it rust-lightning compatible. ([#4548]) - Plugins: `fundchannel` and `multifundchannel` will now reserve funding they use for 2 weeks instead of 12 hours. ([#4510]) - Plugins: we now always send `allow-deprecated-apis` in getmanifest. ([#4465]) ### Deprecated Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes. - lightningd: `enable-autotor-v2-mode` option. Use v3. See https://blog.torproject.org/v2-deprecation-timeline. ([#4549]) - lightningd: v2 Tor addresses. Use v3. See https://blog.torproject.org/v2-deprecation-timeline. ([#4549]) - JSON-RPC: `listtransactions` `outputs` `satoshis` field (use `msat` instead). ([#4594]) - JSON-RPC: `listfunds` `channels` `funding_allocation_msat` and `funding_msat`: use `funding`. ([#4594]) - JSON-RPC: `listfunds` `channels` `last_tx_fee`: use `last_tx_fee_msat`. ([#4594]) - JSON-RPC: `listfunds` `channels` `closer` is now omitted if it does not apply, not JSON `null`. ([#4594]) ### Removed - JSON-RPC: `newaddr` no longer includes `address` field (deprecated in 0.7.1) ([#4465]) - pyln: removed deprecated `fundchannel`/`fundchannel_start` `satoshi` arg. ([#4465]) - pyln: removed deprecated pay/sendpay `description` arg. ([#4465]) - pyln: removed deprecated close `force` variant. ([#4465]) ### Fixed - JSON-RPC: `listinvoice` no longer crashes if given an invalid (or bolt12) `invstring` argument. ([#4625]) - JSON-RPC: `listconfigs` would list some boolean options as strings `"true"` or `"false"` instead of using JSON booleans. ([#4594]) - Protocol: don't ever send 0 `fee_updates` (regtest bug). ([#4629]) - Protocol: We could get stuck on signature exchange if we needed to retransmit the final `revoke_and_ack`. ([#4559]) - Protocol: Validate chain hash for `gossip_timestamp_filter` messages ([#4514]) - Protocol: We would sometimes gratuitously disconnect 30 seconds after an HTLC failed. ([#4550]) - Protocol: handle complex feerate transitions correctly. ([#4480]) - Protocol: Don't create more than one feerate change at a time, as this seems to desync with LND. ([#4480]) - Build: Fixes `make full-check` errors on macOS ([#4613]) - Build: Fixes `make` with `--enable-developer` option on macOS. ([#4613]) - Docs: Epic documentation rewrite: each now lists complete and accurate JSON output, tested against testsuite. ([#4594]) - Config: `addr` autotor and statictor /torport arguments now advertized correctly. ([#4603]) - pay: Fixed an issue when filtering routehints when we can't find ourselves in the local network view. ([#4581]) - pay: The presplitter mod will no longer exhaust the HTLC budget. ([#4563]) - pay: Fix occasional crash paying an invoice with a routehint to us. ([#4555]) - Compat: Handle windows-style newlines and other trailing whitespaces correctly in bitcoin-cli interface ([#4502]) ### EXPERIMENTAL - bolt12 decode `timestamp` field deprecated in favor of new name `created_at`. ([#4669]) - JSON-RPC: `listpeers` now includes the `scratch_txid` for every inflight (if is a dual-funded channel) ([#4521]) - JSON-RPC: for v2 channels, we now list the inflights information for a channel ([#4521]) - JSON-RPC: `fetchinvoice` can take a payer note, and `listinvoice` will show the `payer_notes` received. ([#4625]) - JSON-RPC: `fetchinvoice` and `sendinvoice` will connect directly if they can't find an onionmessage route. ([#4625]) - JSON-RPC: `openchannel_init` now takes a `requested_amt`, which is an amount to request from peer ([#4639]) - JSON-RPC: `fundchannel` now takes optional `request_amt` parameter ([#4639]) - JSON-RPC: `fundchannel`, `multifundchannel`, and `openchannel_init` now accept a `compact_lease` for any requested funds ([#4639]) - JSON-RPC: close now has parameter to force close a leased channel (`option_will_fund`) ([#4639]) - JSON-RPC: `listnodes` now includes the `lease_rates`, if available ([#4639]) - JSON-RPC: new RPC `setleaserates`, for passing in the rates to advertise for a channel lease (`option_will_fund`) ([#4639]) - JSON-RPC: `decode` now gives a `valid` boolean (it does partial decodes of some invalid data). ([#4501]) - JSON-RPC: `listoffers` now shows `local_offer_id` when listing all offers. ([#4625]) - Protocol: we can now upgrade old channels to `option_static_remotekey`.

https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/pull/4480 [0.10.1rc2]: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/releases/tag/v0.10.1rc2 ## [0.10.0] - 2021-03-28: Neutralizing Fee Therapy This release named by @jsarenik. ### Added - Protocol: we treat error messages from peer which refer to "all channels" as warnings, not errors. ([#4364]) - Protocol: we now report the new (draft) warning message. ([#4364]) - JSON-RPC: `connect` returns `address` it actually connected to ([#4436]) - JSON-RPC: `connect` returns "direction" ("in": they initiated, or "out": we initiated) ([#4452]) - JSON-RPC: `txprepare` and `withdraw` now return a `psbt` field. ([#4428]) - JSON-RPC: `fundchannel_complete` takes a psbt parameter. ([#4428]) - pay: `pay` will now remove routehints that are unusable due to the entrypoint being unknown or unreachable. ([#4404]) - Plugins: `peer_connected` hook and `connect` notifications have "direction" field. ([#4452]) - Plugins: If there is a misconfiguration with important plugins we now abort early with a more descriptive error message. ([#4418]) - pyln: Plugins that are run from the command line print helpful information on how to configure c-lightning to include them and print metadata about what RPC methods and options are exposed. ([#4419]) - JSON-RPC: `listpeers` now shows latest feerate and unilateral close fee. ([#4407]) - JSON-RPC: `listforwards` can now filter by status, in and out channel. ([#4349]) - JSON-RPC: Add new parameter `excess_as_change` to fundpsbt+utxopsbt ([#4368]) - JSON-RPC: `addgossip` allows direct injection of network gossip messages. ([#4361]) - pyln-testing: The RPC client will now pretty-print requests and responses to facilitate log-based debugging. ([#4357]) ### Changed - Plugins: the `rpc_command` hook is now chainable. ([#4384]) - JSON-RPC: If bitcoind won't give a fee estimate in regtest, use minimum. ([#4405]) - Protocol: we use `sync_complete` for gossip range query replies, with detection for older spec nodes. ([#4389]) - Plugins: `peer_connected` rejections now send a warning, not an error, to the peer. ([#4364]) - Protocol: we now send warning messages and close the connection, except on unrecoverable errors. ([#4364]) - JSON-RPC: `sendpay` no longer extracts updates from errors, the caller should do it from the `raw_message`.

This has been split into two fields, see Added. - JSON RPC: `global_features` and `local_features` fields: use `globalfeatures` and `localfeatures` as per BOLT #1. ### Removed - JSON API: the optional 'seed' parameter to `getroute` was removed. ### Fixed - Startup: more coherent complaint if daemon already running. - Lightningd: correctly save full HTLCs across restarts; fixup old databases. - JSON RPC: `getinfo` now shows correct Tor port. - JSON RPC: `ping` now works even after one peer fails to respond. - JSON RPC: `getroute` `fuzzpercent` and `pay` `maxfeepercent` can now be > 100. - JSON RPC: `riskfactor` in `pay` and `getroute` no longer always treated as 1. - JSON-RPC: `listpeers` was always reporting 0 for all stats. - JSON RPC: `withdraw all` says `Cannot afford transaction` if you have absolutely no funds, rather than `Output 0 satoshis would be dust`. - Protocol: don't send gossip about closed channels. - Protocol: fix occasional deadlock when both peers flood with gossip. - Protocol: fix occasional long delay on sending `reply_short_channel_ids_end`. - Protocol: re-send `node_announcement` when address/alias/color etc change. - Protocol: multiple HTLCs with the same payment_hash are handled correctly. - Options: 'autotor' defaults to port 9051 if not specified. ### Security ## [0.6.1] - 2018-09-11: "Principled Opposition To Segwit" This release was named by ZmnSCPxj. ### Added - Protocol: gossipd now deliberately delays spamming with `channel_update`. - Protocol: liveness ping when we commit changes but peer is idle: speeds up failures and reduces forced closures. - Protocol: `option_data_loss_protect` now supported to protect peers against being out-of-date. - JSON API: Added description to invoices and payments (#1740). - JSON API: `getinfo` has new fields `alias` and `color`. - JSON API: `listpeers` has new fields `global_features` and `local_features`. - JSON API: `listnodes` has new field `global_features`. - JSON API: `ping` command to send a ping to a connected peer. - JSON API: `feerates` command to retrieve current fee estimates. - JSON API: `withdraw` and `fundchannel` can be given manual feerate. - Config: `--conf` option to set config file. - Documentation: Added CHANGELOG.md - pylightning: RpcError now has `method` and `payload` fields. - Sending lightningd a SIGHUP will make it reopen its `log-file`, if any. ### Changed - Protocol: Fee estimates are now smoothed over time, to avoid sudden jumps. - Config: You can only announce one address if each type (IPv4, IPv6, TORv2, TORv3). - lightning-cli: the help command for a specific command now runs the `man` command. - HSM: The HSM daemon now maintains the per-peer secrets, rather than handing them out. It's still lax in what it signs though. - connectd: A new daemon `lightning_connectd` handles connecting to/from peers, instead of `gossipd` doing that itself. `lightning_openingd` now handles peers immediately, even if they never actually open a channel. - Test: `python-xdist` is now a dependency for tests. - Logging: JSON connections no longer spam debug logs. - Routing: We no longer consider channels that are not usable either because of their capacity or their `htlc_minimum_msat` parameter (#1777) - We now try to connect to all known addresses for a peer, not just the one given or the first one announced. - Crash logs are now placed one-per file like `crash.log.20180822233752` - We will no longer allow withdrawing funds or funding channels if we do not have a fee estimate (eg. bitcoind not synced); use new `feerate` arg. ### Deprecated ### Removed - JSON API: `listpeers` results no long have `alias` and `color` fields; they're in `listnodes` (we used to internally merge the information). - JSON API: `listpeers` will never have `state` field (it accidentally used to exist and set to `GOSSIPING` before we opened a channel). `connected` will indicate if we're connected, and the `channels` array indicates individual channel states (if any). - Config: `default-fee-rate` is no longer available; use explicit `feerate` option if necessary. - Removed all Deprecated options from 0.6. ### Fixed - Protocol: `node_announcement` multiple addresses are correctly ordered and uniquified. - Protocol: if we can't estimate feerate, be almost infinitely tolerant of other side setting fees to avoid unilateral close. - JSON API: `listnodes`: now displays node aliases and colors even if they don't advertise a network address - JSON API: `fundchannel all`: now restricts to 2^24-1 satoshis rather than failing. - JSON API: `listnodes`: now correctly prints `addresses` if more than one is advertised. - Config: `bind-addr` of a publicly accessible network address was announced. - When we reconnect and have to retransmit failing HTLCs, the errors weren't encrypted by us. - `lightningd_config` man page is now installed by `make install`. - Fixed crash when shutting down during opening a channel (#1737) - Don't lose track of our own output when applying penalty transaction (#1738) - Protocol: `channel_update` inside error messages now refers to correct channel. - Stripping type prefix from `channel_update`s that are nested in an onion reply to be compatible with eclair and lnd (#1730). - Failing tests no longer delete the test directory, to allow easier debugging (Issue: #1599) ### Security ## [0.6] - 2018-06-22: "I Accidentally The Smart Contract" In the prehistory of c-lightning, no changelog was kept. But major JSON API changes are tracked. This release was named by Fabrice Drouin. ### Deprecated Note: You should always set `allow-deprecated-apis=false` to test for changes. - Config: `port`. Use `addr=:`. - Config: `ipaddr`. Use `addr`. - Config: `anchor-confirms`. Use `funding-confirms`. - Config: `locktime-blocks`. Use `watchtime-blocks`. - Protocol: on closing we allow out-of-range offers, prior to spec fix 2018-01-30 ("BOLT 2: order closing-signed negotiation by making funder send first." `90241d9cf60a598eac8fd839ac81e4093a161272`) - JSON API: `listinvoice` command. Use `listinvoices`. - JSON API: invoice result fields `paid_timestamp` and `expiry_time`. Use `paid_at` and `expires_at`. - JSON API: `invoice` command field `fallback`. Use `fallbacks`. - JSON API: `decodepay` result fields `timestamp` and `fallback`. Use `created_at` and `fallbacks`. - JSON API: payment result fields `timestamp`. Use `created_at`. - JSON API: `getinfo` result field `port`. Use `binding` and `address` arrays. - JSON API: `getlog` result field `creation_time`. Use `created_at`. - JSON API: `getpeers` result field `channel_reserve_satoshis`. Use `their_channel_reserve_satoshis`. - JSON API: `getpeers` result field `to_self_delay`. Use `their_to_self_delay`. ## Older versions There predate the BOLT specifications, and are only of vague historic interest: 1. [0.1] - 2015-08-08: "MtGox's Cold Wallet" (named by Rusty Russell) 2.
