Issue being fixed or feature implemented

When the mempool refuses a transaction at commit time, the Send dialog cannot tell that anything went wrong, so it:

• reports the payment as sent and clears the form;
• leaves the refused transaction in the wallet as a pending debit that was never relayed;
• lets the wallet keep rebroadcasting that transaction later.

The user is told the money left when it did not, and can't easily retry.

#7763 (merged) already made CWallet::CommitTransaction and interfaces::Wallet::commitTransaction return the broadcast error as util::Result<void>. This PR makes the GUI act on it. It also passes the node's actual broadcast result to the wallet: before, the wallet worked out "already in the chain" by looking the transaction's outputs up again.

What was done?

Four commits.

1. fix(qt): surface a mempool rejection from WalletModel::sendCoins

• WalletModel::sendCoins returns a SendCoinsReturn. On a refusal it abandons the transaction and returns a new TransactionCommitFailed status with the reason.
• SendCoinsDialog shows that as an error, does not emit coinsSent, and keeps the form and coin selection so the user can retry.

2. refactor(wallet): keep the node's broadcast result in interfaces::Chain

• node::BroadcastTransaction returns a TransactionError, but interfaces::Chain::broadcastTransaction reduced it to a bool.
• CommitTransaction therefore could not tell ALREADY_IN_CHAIN (a transaction mined through another path before this wallet processed the block) from a refusal. It got around that with a second lookup of the outputs through Chain::findCoins. That lookup reads the mempool-backed view, not the chain UTXO view that BroadcastTransaction checks.
• Chain::broadcastTransaction now returns the TransactionError itself, as interfaces::Node::broadcastTransaction already does.
• CWallet::SubmitTxMemoryPoolAndRelay passes it on as std::optional<TransactionError>, which is nullopt when CanTxBeResent() keeps the transaction from the node.
• CommitTransaction reports OK and ALREADY_IN_CHAIN as committed. The findCoins lookup is gone. A transaction already in the chain keeps its state until the block notification marks it confirmed.
• A refusal that has no mempool reason now gets the error's own text from TransactionErrorString(). A send over the -maxtxfee ceiling therefore says "Fee exceeds maximum configured by user (e.g. -maxtxfee, maxfeerate)" instead of a generic "Transaction could not be broadcast". That generic text remains only for the nullopt case.
• ResendTransaction and ResubmitWalletTransactions count only OK as submitted, as before. The other CommitTransaction callers (RPC send paths, CoinJoin, governance) ignore the result, as before.
• Why not util::Result? util::Result in this tree carries only an error message. The failure-type parameter from refactor: Add util::Result failure types and ability to merge result values bitcoin/bitcoin#25665 isn't backported, so it cannot keep ALREADY_IN_CHAIN apart from a real error. TransactionError is the type the node already returns. CommitTransaction keeps returning util::Result<void> to the GUI and RPC.

3. test(qt): cover a refused send in an avoid_reuse wallet, the known limitation below.

4. fix(qt): no "Sent transaction" notification for a refused send

• CommitTransaction adds a send to the wallet before broadcasting it, so a refused send still gets a new history row, and WalletView raised the tray's "Sent transaction" balloon for it next to the error dialog.
• The table model receives new rows on a queued connection, so by the time that row arrives sendCoins has already abandoned the transaction. WalletView::processNewTransaction now skips a row that is abandoned on arrival. The row stays in the history.
• If the row's status can't be read without blocking (the table model only try-locks the wallet), the balloon is shown as before.

Behaviour change, made on purpose. The GUI abandons a refused send for every reason, including temporary ones such as the mempool minimum fee or a missing parent.

• BroadcastTransaction relays only what the mempool accepted. A refused transaction has therefore reached no peer, and abandoning it has no effect on the network.
• If it were kept, the wallet's periodic resend could broadcast it after the user was told it failed and had perhaps paid again. That would be a double payment.
• The cost: a temporary refusal is not retried automatically. The form is kept, so retrying is one click.
• If the abandon fails, the wallet's own record of the transaction decides:
  • In the mempool, in a block, or InstantSend-locked (AbandonTransaction also refuses an IS-locked transaction): it went out between the commit and the abandon, so it was sent, and the GUI reports it as sent.
  • Otherwise: a spend of the same inputs confirmed in between and the transaction is conflicted. It is reported as not sent, with the mempool's reason.

Known, not changed here:

• With avoid_reuse set, a refused send's input addresses stay marked as used after the abandon, as they do for any abandoned transaction. The balance then leaves out every coin at those addresses, and a send above what remains fails the GUI's balance check, although coin control can still spend the coins. This isn't a regression: on develop the same coins stay spent by the pending debit. Fixing it belongs in AbandonTransaction for every caller and is tracked in wallet: abandoning a transaction leaves its input addresses marked as used under avoid_reuse #8017. The third commit pins the current behaviour, so that fix has to update it.

Screenshots

A 2 DASH send whose broadcast is refused, on the same WalletTests regtest fixture. Before is the base 6dedab5bc7, after is the earlier head 29e1f07a75. The refusal is the -maxtxfee check in BroadcastTransaction. Since the second commit, the error dialog's text is "Fee exceeds maximum configured by user (e.g. -maxtxfee, maxfeerate)" in place of the generic "Transaction could not be broadcast" shown below; nothing else in these screens changed. How they were captured, and the hashes: index.

Before: exact base	After: 29e1f07a75
Reported as sent, no message, form cleared	Error shown, form kept
Left as a pending debit that was never relayed; balance 1984.99	Abandoned; balance unchanged at 2484.99

How Has This Been Tested?

New checks in the existing TestGUI scenario (src/qt/test/wallettests.cpp):

• A send whose broadcast is refused. The wallet's fee ceiling is lowered after the transaction is prepared and before it is confirmed. The test checks that the send:
  • shows one error-level message and emits no coinsSent;
  • keeps its history row but raises no "Sent transaction" notification, while the two earlier successful sends raised one each;
  • is not in the mempool;
  • leaves the balance unchanged, because the abandoned transaction's coins are spendable again;
  • keeps the amount in the form.
• A refused send retried with the identical transaction. The refusal carries the MAX_FEE_EXCEEDED diagnostic. The retry is committed and reaches the mempool.
• The same transaction committed again after it is mined. It is reported as sent, stays confirmed, and the balance does not change.
• A transaction mined before the wallet processed the block. ALREADY_IN_CHAIN: it is reported as sent.
• A transaction relayed through another path and seen by the wallet first. It is reported as sent and keeps its payment message.
• A second send over a coin that an earlier send already spent. It is reported as TransactionCommitFailed with the mempool's txn-mempool-conflict reason.
• A refused send in an avoid_reuse wallet. The balance afterwards is below the full spendable balance by at least the amount of a further send, that send fails with AmountExceedsBalance, and a retry from the refused send's coin through coin control is sent.

Regression proof, run against mutant builds:

• sendCoins ignoring the commit result fails with sent.count() 1 instead of 0.
• sendCoins reporting the error without abandoning fails because the balance is short by the 5 DASH input.
• CommitTransaction treating ALREADY_IN_CHAIN as a refusal fails the mined-before-processed check (TransactionCommitFailed instead of OK).
• CommitTransaction using the generic text instead of TransactionErrorString() fails with "Transaction could not be broadcast" instead of the max-fee diagnostic.
• WalletView without the abandoned-row check fails with 3 notifications instead of 2.
• AbandonTransaction clearing the used marks of its inputs (a sketch of the wallet: abandoning a transaction leaves its input addresses marked as used under avoid_reuse #8017 fix) fails the avoid_reuse check, 6 of 6 runs under parallel load.

The InstantSend-locked case has no test: the fixture has no InstantSend lock to inject.

The conflicted-after-refusal case has no test. That state appears only if the wallet processes a block that conflicts the transaction between the commit and the abandon call inside sendCoins, and the test fixtures have no seam there. A transaction whose conflict is already known when it is committed is stored inactive at depth 0, so its abandon succeeds.

Run on Linux x86_64 (Ubuntu 26.04) at head 856eb0491c, with a configure against depends using --enable-debug --enable-werror:

• test_dash-qt with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=minimal: every suite passed, including WalletTests. At f068929cd8, WalletTests with the avoid_reuse check passed 8 of 8 runs, 3 of them in parallel. At d4e5b9b71c, it passed 4 of 4 runs, 3 of them in parallel. The rest of this list was not re-run for those two Qt-only commits. Earlier rounds also passed on macOS with cocoa.
• test_dash --run_test=wallet_tests,spend_tests,coinjoin_tests,coinselector_tests,psbt_wallet_tests,wallet_crypto_tests,walletload_tests,wallet_transaction_tests: no errors.
• Functional: wallet_basic.py, wallet_abandonconflict.py, wallet_resendwallettransactions.py and wallet_send.py, each with --descriptors and --legacy-wallet, plus rpc_rawtransaction.py: all passed.
• Lints: whitespace, includes, include guards, assertions, format strings, locale dependence, files, circular dependencies. clang-format-diff was not run, because clang-format isn't installed on this host. None of the touched files is in non-backported.txt, so CI doesn't format-check them either.

Breaking Changes

None for users, apart from the deliberate GUI behaviour above. For developers, interfaces::Chain::broadcastTransaction returns TransactionError instead of bool, and CWallet::SubmitTxMemoryPoolAndRelay returns std::optional<TransactionError>. TransactionError is a scoped enum, so an out-of-tree caller of Chain::broadcastTransaction that still expects a bool fails to compile instead of silently flipping its meaning (OK is 0). Every in-tree caller of both is updated. Bitcoin Core's Chain::broadcastTransaction still returns bool, so a later backport touching that signature will need a small manual merge.

Walkthrough

Wallet commit methods now return a result that indicates whether transaction broadcast succeeded. WalletModel propagates commit failures as TransactionCommitFailed when it abandons a transaction or finds no evidence that the transaction was sent. SendCoinsDialog reports the failure and emits coinsSent only when the send succeeds. Wallet GUI tests cover failed broadcasts, retries, transactions mined or relayed through alternate paths, retained payment-message data, and a mempool conflict.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Cover selected-coin retention in the rejected-send test.

This test sends without coin control, so it checks form retention but not whether a selected coin remains available for retry. Select a spendable coin through CoinControlDialog before the rejected send and assert that the selection remains afterward. The direct conflict test does not cover this GUI path because it uses WalletModel directly.

Reactivate identical abandoned transactions before committing

When a rejected send is retried and transaction creation produces the same txid (for example, a coin-controlled subtract-fee/no-change payment at the same tip), the first pass has left that wallet entry abandoned. This call invokes CommitTransaction(), whose AddToWallet(..., TxStateInactive{}) sees the existing abandoned TxStateInactive as the same variant and hits its fatal serialized-index assertion (-1 versus 0); without assertions it remains abandoned and cannot be relayed. Thus the retained-form retry can crash dash-qt or repeatedly fail; reactivate the abandoned state before recommitting and cover an actual identical retry.

Reproduced and fixed in c8e27b5. If the wallet already holds the transaction as abandoned, CWallet::CommitTransaction now un-abandons it before re-adding it, and the existing reconcile step marks its inputs spent again. A new TestGUI block sends one prepared transaction twice, refused and then accepted; without the wallet change it hits the AddToWallet assertion. (Develop already crashed the same way after a manual "Abandon transaction" followed by an identical resend.)

Distinguish conflicted transactions when abandonment fails

When a competing spend is confirmed after commitTransaction() returns a rejection but before the separate abandonTransaction() call acquires the wallet lock, blockConnected() marks this outgoing transaction TxStateConflicted. CWallet::AbandonTransaction() returns false for any nonzero depth, including a negative conflicted depth, so this condition falls through to the success path, emits coinsSent, and tells the user the payment was sent even though it can never enter the mempool. Only treat an abandonment failure as success after verifying this transaction is in the mempool/chain (or InstantSend-locked); keep a conflicted state as TransactionCommitFailed.

Treat InstantSend-locked commits as sent

When an unconfirmed transaction has an InstantSend lock but its wallet state is not in the mempool (for example, the lock notification wins the race after the failed commit), AbandonTransaction() refuses to abandon it, yet this helper returns false and sendCoins() reports TransactionCommitFailed, retaining a retry form for a quorum-locked payment and risking a second payment from other inputs. Fresh evidence in the current patch is that the new helper populates WalletTxStatus but ignores its is_islocked member; include that state among the successful outcomes after excluding conflicts.

Fixed in ae35e08. When abandoning fails, a transaction now counts as sent if it is in a block, or at depth 0 and either in the mempool or InstantSend-locked; a conflicted transaction never counts. No test: the GUI fixture can't inject an InstantSend lock.

Restore rejected inputs for avoid-reuse wallets

When WALLET_FLAG_AVOID_REUSE is enabled, a failed send has already passed through AddToWallet(), which persists every input address as previously spent at src/wallet/wallet.cpp:1061-1070. This abandonment restores the UTXO but never clears that marker, and GetBalance()/AvailableCoins() then exclude its IsSpentKey outputs (src/wallet/receive.cpp:175-181, src/wallet/spend.cpp:303-305). A rejection before relay can therefore remove the input—and all other coins on that address—from the GUI balance, so the retained form may fail for insufficient funds instead of being retryable; avoid or roll back the marker for this never-relayed path and cover the flag in the regression test.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

[PastaPastaPasta]

Leaving this as is. Abandoning a refused send leaves the AVOID_REUSE "used" mark on its input addresses, but that is how abandoning already works in develop and upstream Bitcoin Core: abandontransaction keeps the mark too, because AddToWallet sets it and nothing rolls it back. avoid_reuse is opt-in, and clearing used-key state on abandon is a wallet-wide change that belongs in its own upstream-aligned PR, not in this GUI fix.

Recognize confirmations before abandoning the send

When the exact prepared transaction is mined through another path while the wallet's blockConnected() notification is still queued, BroadcastTransaction() already returns ALREADY_IN_CHAIN (src/node/transaction.cpp:49-56) but the wallet entry created by this call is still inactive. Converting that result into an error lets sendCoins() abandon the entry and report TransactionCommitFailed; the queued callback subsequently marks the payment confirmed even though the dialog retained a retry form and told the user it was not sent. Propagate or treat ALREADY_IN_CHAIN as success rather than relying only on lagging wallet state, to avoid prompting a duplicate payment.

Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

[PastaPastaPasta]

Fixed in 1af786b (and the identical CommitTransaction in #7763). The node interface collapses ALREADY_IN_CHAIN into a bare failure, so when a broadcast fails without a reason the wallet now checks the transaction's outputs with chain().findCoins(), the same check BroadcastTransaction uses; if any exist it returns success and nothing is abandoned. The GUI test now mines a prepared transaction before the wallet has processed the block, then sends it and expects OK; it fails without the fix.

Submit re-signed asset unlocks instead of returning success.

A version 2 asset unlock can have a new GetInstanceHash() while keeping the same txid. If the wallet holds the old instance in the mempool, this return reports success without submitting the new signature. The node explicitly supports submitting that instance as an in-place refresh. The fix must also account for AddToWallet() retaining the old transaction: bypassing this return alone would still broadcast the old instance. Compare instance identity and submit the supplied transaction when a refresh is needed. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Re CodeRabbit's outside-diff note on wallet.cpp:2499 (re-signed asset unlocks): not applicable. Every CommitTransaction caller commits a transaction the wallet built itself: sendtoaddress/send, the GUI send, governance collateral and CoinJoin. Asset unlocks are quorum-signed and enter through sendrawtransaction/P2P, never through the wallet's commit path, so the already-in-mempool early return can't swallow an instance refresh.

Apply commit metadata before returning for live transactions

When the exact transaction reaches the mempool or chain through another path and the wallet processes that notification before CommitTransaction(), this return bypasses the updater below that sets fFromMe, mapValue, and vOrderForm. The externally inserted entry therefore permanently loses WalletModel::sendCoins()'s BIP21 Message and CoinJoin DS marker, causing the transaction details to omit the message and CoinJoin sends to be categorized as ordinary sends; preserve the existing transaction state while still applying and writing the commit metadata.

Fixed in 71d657e (and the identical CommitTransaction in #7763). The commit metadata updater is now shared by both paths: when the wallet already holds the transaction as confirmed or in the mempool, it records fFromMe, mapValue and the order form, writes the entry and notifies, without changing the transaction's state. A new TestGUI case relays a transaction with a payment message through the node before the send and checks the message is on the wallet entry afterwards; it fails with the old early return.

Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2

Verified the supplied reviews against head 71d657e and the surrounding wallet, broadcast, GUI, and regression-test code; no actionable in-scope findings remain. Error propagation, rejection abandonment, identical retries, and preservation of confirmed/mempool transaction state match the PR's stated behavior. Validation was static only: the supplied CI snapshot shows successful primary builds and lint checks, while wallet-enabled tests and several sanitizer/multiprocess jobs were still pending.

Updated after discussion: 3 finding(s) of this review were settled in the inline threads; no blocking finding remains.

• ✅ Withdrawn: 🔴 Do not treat cached InMempool state as proof that the transaction is still relayed
• ✅ Withdrawn: 🔴 Recheck transaction status before accepting a successful abandon
• ✅ Withdrawn: 🟡 Restore avoid-reuse accounting for locally rejected sends

The change correctly propagates broadcast failures and addresses the previously identified abandoned-retry, confirmed-state, and metadata cases. Static review still finds two in-scope races that can report a payment incorrectly or skip rebroadcasting, plus an avoid-reuse accounting gap for locally rejected sends. CI has successful build and lint results, while ASAN, TSAN, and multiprocess test jobs remain in progress.

[PastaPastaPasta]

Declining; I don't think the stale-state window loses anything.

• Re-relay: a transaction left as TxStateInMempool after an eviction is still isUnconfirmed(), and so is the inactive state it becomes once transactionRemovedFromMempool runs. ResubmitWalletTransactions (src/wallet/wallet.cpp:2286) resubmits every unconfirmed wallet transaction, so it is re-relayed either way. The claim that it "will not be re-relayed" doesn't hold.
• Reachability: this branch runs only when the wallet commits a transaction whose txid it already holds as in the mempool or confirmed, which a normal send never does. The early return exists so that recommit can't downgrade the state, which is the bug earlier rounds found.
• Reorg: the queued blockDisconnected moves a disconnected transaction to inactive after this commit returns, and the resubmit path covers it from there.

Making the commit block on the validation queue, or query the mempool under cs_wallet, would cost more than this window is worth.

[thepastaclaw]

You're right that the claimed permanent loss of relay does not follow: an entry left as TxStateInMempool remains unconfirmed, and ResubmitWalletTransactions will eventually submit it again; the removal callback also converts it to an inactive, still-unconfirmed entry. I withdraw this finding.

Withdrawing this finding.

[thepastaclaw]

Withdrawn (re-reviewed at 29e1f07a): Your rebroadcast explanation is supported by isUnconfirmed and ResubmitWalletTransactions: both the cached in-mempool state and the eventual inactive state remain eligible for resubmission. blockDisconnected likewise restores resubmission eligibility, so my claim of permanently lost re-relay was incorrect.

🔴 Blocking: Recheck transaction status before accepting a successful abandon

When abandonTransaction() returns true, the short-circuit prevents WasSent() from checking the transaction at all. A successful abandon only proves that the wallet entry was inactive when the wallet lock was acquired; a block or mempool notification can be queued after that point and processed later. In that case the transaction can become confirmed or enter the mempool even though sendCoins has already returned TransactionCommitFailed and retained the retry form. The final decision must recheck current transaction status after abandonment, and must report success when the transaction was accepted or confirmed rather than unconditionally trusting the earlier successful abandon.

_{source: gpt-6.1-sol (phase2-reviewer: general, dash-core-commit-history)}

[PastaPastaPasta]

Declining; I don't see a way to reach this.

A transaction reaches this branch only when the node's own mempool has just refused it, so this node never relayed it, and a freshly built send exists nowhere else. For it to then enter a mempool or be confirmed, someone would have to hold a transaction we never sent. The one in-chain case, ALREADY_IN_CHAIN, is already detected through findCoins in CommitTransaction before we ever get here.

If it did happen anyway, the queued blockConnected replaces the abandoned state with the confirmed one, as AddToWallet does for any transaction, so the wallet ends up correct. The only effect would be a misleading error for that one attempt.

---

🤖 Posted autonomously by Claude on behalf of pasta.

[thepastaclaw]

The missing premise is that this transaction cannot exist anywhere else. A local mempool refusal only says this submission was rejected; another node or submission path can still provide the same transaction, and a block containing it can arrive before the queued wallet notification is processed. In that interleaving abandonTransaction() sees the inactive state and returns true, the short-circuit skips WasSent(), and the GUI reports failure even though the later notification marks the transaction confirmed; the promised status-based resolution still requires a recheck after abandonment.

[PastaPastaPasta]

Granted that it can't be ruled out in principle, but the requested recheck can't detect it. In the interleaving you describe, the block notification is still queued when abandonTransaction() returns true, so a WasSent() call straight afterwards reads the same wallet state: the transaction is abandoned, neither in the mempool nor confirmed, and it reports "not sent" just the same. Dropping the short-circuit would change no outcome.

To catch it, sendCoins would have to wait for the validation queue to drain on the GUI thread before deciding. That blocks the UI to cover a transaction appearing from elsewhere moments after our own mempool refused it. If it does happen, the queued blockConnected marks the transaction confirmed, the wallet ends up correct and the payment shows in the history, so the cost is one misleading error message. I'd rather keep the current code.

🤖 Posted autonomously by Claude on behalf of pasta.

[thepastaclaw]

You're right that an immediate WasSent() call cannot resolve the queued-notification interleaving: AbandonTransaction() checks the wallet state under cs_wallet, and the notification may be applied only after both calls return. I was treating the post-abandon check as a synchronization point when it is not; detecting that case would require waiting for pending chain notifications, which is a different behavior and not justified here.

Withdrawing this finding.

[thepastaclaw]

Withdrawn (re-reviewed at 29e1f07a): You are right that an immediate WasSent call reads the same cached wallet state while the notification remains queued, so removing the short-circuit would not fix the proposed interleaving. I withdraw the request because I have not established a reachable regression that warrants validation-queue synchronization on the GUI thread.

🟡 Suggestion: Restore avoid-reuse accounting for locally rejected sends

AddToWallet() marks every wallet-owned input destination as previously spent through SetSpentKeyState() before broadcasting. The new rejected-send path abandons the transaction and reconciles its outpoints, but it never reverses those address-used markers. With WALLET_FLAG_AVOID_REUSE enabled, GetBalance() and coin selection continue excluding outputs at those destinations, including other spendable outputs at the same address, even though this transaction never entered the mempool.

[PastaPastaPasta]

Leaving this as is, as in the earlier round. AbandonTransaction has never cleared the avoid-reuse markers that AddToWallet sets (SetSpentKeyState is only ever called with used = true). The same is true of an abandoned send in upstream Bitcoin Core and of abandontransaction over RPC, so this PR keeps the existing behaviour rather than changing what "used" means for an abandoned transaction. If we want that, it belongs in its own change to AbandonTransaction, covering every caller.

---

🤖 Posted autonomously by Claude on behalf of pasta.

[thepastaclaw]

The upstream behavior explains why AbandonTransaction() itself does not clear the marker, but this change adds a new automatic-abandon path and explicitly promises that a refused send's inputs are free for retry. AddToWallet() marks destinations through SetSpentKeyState(), while ReconcileWalletUTXOs() only restores outpoints; it does not clear previously_spent, so with avoid-reuse enabled another spendable output at the same address remains excluded after this GUI failure. That interaction is introduced by this PR's refusal handling, rather than being only a generic follow-up to manual abandonment.

[PastaPastaPasta]

You're right that this PR's automatic abandon now reaches the marker, and I checked what that costs. With avoid_reuse set, the refused send's input addresses stay marked as used. The GUI's cached balance comes from GetBalance(avoid_reuse=true), so it leaves those coins out. prepareTransaction checks the amount against that balance, so a retry of nearly the whole balance can fail with AmountExceedsBalance. Coin selection itself still uses them: the GUI's CCoinControl leaves m_avoid_address_reuse false, so allow_used_addresses is true (src/wallet/spend.cpp:216).

I'm still not changing it here:

• Not a regression. On develop a refused send stays a pending debit with its input spent, so the same coins are unavailable and the user is also told it was sent. With avoid_reuse the balance after this PR is the same as develop's or higher. Without the flag it is fully restored.
• Narrow reach. dash-qt can't create or toggle an avoid_reuse wallet; that takes createwallet avoid_reuse=true or setwalletflag over RPC. The coins also still show up there, under getbalances' used bucket.
• A correct rollback isn't local to this path. The "previously spent" mark is one bit per address with no count (SetSpentKeyState). An earlier relayed spend may already have set it for the same address, so clearing it for this transaction's inputs would be wrong. CommitTransaction can't drop it at the refusal either. RPC callers keep the refused transaction and rebroadcast it, and in the GUI the abandon can still fail because the transaction got out. A fix means recording which addresses this transaction newly marked, or recomputing them when a transaction is abandoned. That belongs in AbandonTransaction for every caller, including the abandontransaction RPC, where upstream has the same behaviour.

I'd rather fix that in its own change to AbandonTransaction than add a GUI-only version here.

🤖 Posted autonomously by Claude on behalf of pasta.

[thepastaclaw]

You're right; I overstated this as a new coin-selection regression. The GUI's default CCoinControl permits used addresses, while the cached-balance precheck can still prevent an automatic retry after those addresses are marked used. That limitation also exists before this change, and clearing the address-wide bit could incorrectly erase an earlier spend's history. I withdraw the request to change avoid-reuse accounting in this PR.

Withdrawing this finding.

[PastaPastaPasta]

Covered and tracked in f068929 (test(qt): cover a refused send in an avoid_reuse wallet). The behaviour itself is unchanged.

• Tracking: wallet: abandoning a transaction leaves its input addresses marked as used under avoid_reuse #8017 covers clearing the marks in AbandonTransaction for every caller, including abandontransaction. It explains why the address-wide bit can't simply be reset.
• New TestGUI block: with WALLET_FLAG_AVOID_REUSE set, it sends from one coinbase coin, and the broadcast is refused. After the abandon:
  • the balance is below the full spendable balance (GetBalance(avoid_reuse=false)) by more than one further send;
  • the GUI's cached balance matches it, and that further send fails with AmountExceedsBalance;
  • a retry from the same coin through coin control is sent and reaches the mempool.
• Mutant: a sketch of the wallet: abandoning a transaction leaves its input addresses marked as used under avoid_reuse #8017 fix, AbandonTransaction clearing its inputs' marks, fails the pinning check in 6 of 6 runs under parallel load. The unmodified test passes 8 of 8.

Two points about the fixture, for whoever picks up #8017:

• Queue drain: once TestGUI attaches chain notifications, the earlier sends' TransactionAddedToMempool callbacks may still be queued. Under the flag they would mark their inputs as used on their own, so the block calls SyncWithValidationInterfaceQueue() before it sets the flag.
• Cached balances: turning the flag off doesn't invalidate cached balances that were computed with it on. The block calls MarkDirty() afterwards so the later OverviewPage check stays meaningful.

[thepastaclaw]

Deferred (re-reviewed at f068929c): Your new TestGUI block covers the reduced avoid-reuse balance, the cached-balance rejection, and a successful coin-controlled retry; it also drains earlier notifications and invalidates caches after disabling the flag. With #8017 tracking the shared AbandonTransaction accounting fix, keeping the existing address-wide marker semantics here is a reasonable deferral.

  (existing thread: https://github.com/dashpay/dash/pull/7905#discussion_r4381220136)
  The new automatic-abandon recovery preserves the form, but its retry guarantee has an uncovered opt-in limitation. With WALLET_FLAG_AVOID_REUSE, AddToWallet persists used-address markers before broadcast, and AbandonTransaction restores outpoints without clearing those markers. interfaces::Wallet::getBalances calls GetBalance with avoid_reuse=true, so after the GUI cache refreshes, an unselected-coins retry can fail prepareTransaction's AmountExceedsBalance check even though the GUI's default CCoinControl permits those inputs during coin selection. The added refusal/retry tests use a wallet without this flag and therefore do not exercise that divergence. This is not a balance regression against develop, and clearing the shared address marker in the GUI could erase legitimate earlier spend history. Add a focused regression documenting the preserved avoid-reuse balance and retry behavior. If wallet-wide accounting restoration remains deferred, link a tracking issue covering AbandonTransaction; the supplied discussion and description contain no such reference. The request is limited to coverage and tracking, not a GUI-local rollback or a wallet-policy redesign in this patch.

CommitTransaction calls AddToWallet before attempting broadcast, so a refused send still queues a CT_NEW notification.

BitcoinGUI::showIncomingTransactions consequently displays “Sent transaction” even though the new error dialog says the transaction was not sent.

Re the "Sent transaction" tray balloon for refused sends (review at f068929cd8): fixed here rather than deferred, in d4e5b9b (fix(qt): no "Sent transaction" notification for a refused send).

• CommitTransaction adds the send to the wallet before broadcasting it, so a refused send still gets a CT_NEW row. TransactionTableModel receives that notification on a queued connection, and WalletModel::sendCoins abandons the transaction synchronously before returning, so by the time WalletView::processNewTransaction sees the row, it is already abandoned.
• processNewTransaction now returns early when the new row's StatusRole is TransactionStatus::Abandoned. The row stays in the history.
• The row's status comes from the table model's usual refresh, which only try-locks the wallet. If that fails, the status isn't refreshed and the balloon is shown as before, so it can't hide a real send.
• Any other transaction that is already abandoned when its row arrives also gets no balloon, which is right for the same reason.

Test, in TestGUI:

• A WalletView on the test's wallet model counts incomingTransaction.
• The two earlier successful sends raise two notifications, which also shows the view isn't held back by the initial-block-download check.
• The refused send's row is in the table, and the count stays at 2.
• Without the new check, it fails with 3. The real code passed 4 of 4 runs, 3 of them in parallel.

CI failed after approval — commit d4e5b9b

The standing review approved this commit; this follow-up moves the verdict to COMMENT: checks that failed after the review look related to this change.

Failing checks:

• linux64_asan-build / Build source (failure)

Why they look related: UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer fails in WalletView::processNewTransaction at src/qt/walletview.cpp:205 during WalletTests::walletTests, reached through src/qt/test/wallettests.cpp. The PR changes both files and specifically changes transaction-notification handling, so this failure plausibly relates to its changes.

Nothing was re-reviewed: the findings of the standing review are unchanged. The next push gets a full review; a re-run that passes does not restore the approval.
