If SendOutputs is called on a watch-only wallet then a transaction is
created but without any signatures. Publishing that transaction will
always fail. But the attempt to publish will already update the internal
state of the wallet so we shouldn't try to publish this unsigned TX.
Instead we return a new error along with the unsigned transaction to
give the caller the chance to sign and publish it through other means.
If we're running in watch-only mode, there is no unlock possible.
Therefore, we also don't need to prevent any unlocks from happening when
doing coin selection in that mode.
To allow a wallet to be created directly from an extended master root
key (xprv), we move the derivation from seed to extended key to the
loader instead of the address manager itself.
Now that we're able to fund transactions from multiple accounts within
different key scopes, we extend our transaction creation methods to
accept a key scope parameter as well, to determine the correct account
to select inputs from.
Previously, addresses that belong to a watch-only account would have a
derivation path using the internal account number used to identify
accounts within the databse, rather than the actual account number based
on the account's master public key child index. This wasn't an issue
before as only one account would exist within the wallet, the 0 account,
which is also the default. To ensure users of the DerivationPath struct
can arrive at addresses correctly, we introduce a new field
InternalAccount to denote the internal account number and repurpose the
existing Account field to its actual meaning.
We would previously request spend notifications for all transaction
outputs, leading to irrelevant transactions being found in the wallet's
transaction store.
There's no need to retrieve the full block as we're only interesting in
retrieve its corresponding height, which can be done with
GetBlockHeaderVerbose.
All label parameter to PublishTransaction. Pass in an empty string
in rpc call as a placeholder for follow up PR which will add a label
parameter to the PublishTransaction request.
This PR allows the creation of managers and accounts that are watch-only. The state of the database after creation would be identical to the state after calling
Manager.ConvertToWatchingOnly, assuming accounts with the right xpubs were created in the former case.

In similar fashion to the previous commit, due to a no longer existing
bug within the wallet, it was possible for change addresses to be
created outside of their intended key scope (the default), so wallets
affected by this now need to ensure upon recovery that they scan the
chain for _all_ existing key scopes, rather than just the default ones,
to reflect their proper balance. Through manual testing, it was shown
that the impact of recovering the additional key scopes is negligible in
most cases for both full nodes and light clients.
Due to a no longer existing bug within the wallet, it was possible for
change addresses to be created outside of their intended key scope (the
default), so wallets affected by this now need to ensure they scan the
chain for all addresses within the default key scopes (as expected), and
all _internal_ addresses (branch used for change addresses) within any
other registered key scopes to reflect their proper balance.
The commit being reverted resulted in the discovery of a bug in which
change addresses could at times be created outside of the default key
scopes, causing us to not properly determine their spends.
Previously, the wallet would determine the key scope to use for change
addresses by locating the one compatible with P2WPKH addresses, but this
wasn't always safe like in the case when multiple key scopes that
supported these addresses existed within the address manager, leading
the change address to be created outside of the intended key scope.
Normally the wallet doesn't wait for the chain backend to be synced
on regtest/simnet because there we cannot be certain if we are at
the chain tip, as there are no other nodes to compare to. For
Neutrino, this is a bit different because we rely on the cfheader
server to tell us what it thinks the chain tip is. For a wallet
recovery on Neutrino we therefore need to make sure we are at least
synced up to what the server thinks is the tip.
It was discovered that the wallet can scan the chain for unnecessary
additional addresses that are derived by higher-level applications using
custom key scopes. This isn't much of an issue for full nodes, but it
can cause light clients to scan more than what's required, triggering
more false positive matches which lead to block retrieval.
Now, we'll only scan the chain for addresses that exist within the
default key scopes, as those are the only ones the wallet should be
concerned about.
A nil txid could've been returned from publishTransaction even if it was
successful. This was due to the underlying SendRawTransaction call
"failing", e.g., when the transaction being broadcast has already
confirmed, but publishTranasction interpreting such failure as a
success.
In this commit, we speed up creating a fresh wallet when using the btcd
backend. Before this commit, we would need to rescan 10k or so blocks
when creating a new wallet with the btcd backend. btcd will actually
fully scan all the blocks even though we have zero addresses or UTXOs to
look for. As a result, this can take quite some time.
In this commit we modify the starting height of the initial rescan to
start at the birthday height, and only modify it if it's unset, or the
best height of the chain is before this birthday height. As a result, we
won't always have the full 10k block re org safety horizon on disk, but
will tend to this level after we begin to sync forward.
Previously, the wallet would attempt to store the same block it
checkpointed during its initial sync when performing a recovery. This
would cause the previous block existence validation check to be in
place, which would ultimately fail because the previous block was not
stored intentionally.
To address this, we always start/resume our recovery from the wallet's
best height. This also ensures that we do not rescan the same block
again when resuming a recovery after a shutdown.
