Queue a splice on a channel with an inherited splice until it locks

This commit fixes a compatibility edge case when users upgrade from an older version of LDK (0.2) while a channel splice is still pending. The older version did not save enough details about the splice, so after upgrading the software coul…

Compute the minimum splice RBF feerate via PendingFunding

This commit is a pure code cleanup: it moves a small fee-calculation helper for Lightning splice RBF (replace-by-fee) transactions into a struct method and renames it. The actual arithmetic formula and the places that use it stay exactly t…

Test cross-version serialization of pending splices

Store splice contributions with their negotiated candidates

This commit refactors how a Lightning node keeps track of money it adds during splice and RBF (fee-bump) negotiations. Previously, the node's own contributions were stored in a separate list that had to be manually aligned with negotiated …

Use a builder for sign_interactive_funding_tx arguments

This commit is a code cleanup inside the project's test suite. It replaces a helper function with several hard-to-read positional arguments (like bare `false` and `None`) with a 'builder' pattern that names each option. This makes the test…

Don't panic when a composite sub-handler returns `Ok(None)`

This commit fixes a bug where a remote peer could crash a Lightning node by sending a specially chosen custom message. The crash happened because a message-routing helper assumed a sub-component would always recognize any message type matc…

This commit removes an old cryptographic nonce from the data carried inside Lightning "blinded paths" used when sending BOLT 12 offers and refunds. The nonce is no longer needed because a newer "payer metadata" field already carries the sa…

Reject quantity of 0 for offers with bounded quantity
