LLMQ: Reject unmined InstantSend parents - #1954
Conversation
GetTransaction can return transactions from the stem pool without setting a block hash. Reject those unmined parents before looking them up in mapBlockIndex.
Summary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughInstantSend parent validation now requires a mined transaction. A regression test verifies that a transaction stored only in the stem pool cannot be locked. ChangesInstantSend mined-parent validation
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The production fix rejects unmined InstantSend parents, but the regression test can leak stem-pool state after a failed prerequisite assertion and affect later tests.

Ensure that cleanup runs after a failed requirement.
If either BOOST_REQUIRE fails, Boost.Test exits the test case before line 42. The stem-pool entry then remains in global txpools and can affect later tests. Use an RAII cleanup guard after the initial txpools.clear().
Proposed fix
txpools.clear();
+ const auto clear_txpools = MakeCleanup([] { txpools.clear(); });
TestMemPoolEntryHelper entry;
txpools.getStemTxPool().addUnchecked(parent.GetHash(), entry.FromTx(parent));

No additional actionable issues found. I traced stem/main-pool lookup precedence and races, txindex and hashBlock semantics, mapBlockIndex use, and every CheckCanLock caller and retry path. The new quorums_instantsend_tests suite passed in both Linux configurations; the lone Linux RelWithDebInfo failure was in an unrelated unchanged Spark test, while the remaining builds passed. The existing inline review already covers the test cleanup concern, and git diff --check is clean.

PR intention
Prevent InstantSend processing from treating an unmined stem-pool parent as a mined transaction.
GetTransaction()searches both transaction pools and can returntruefor a stem-only transaction without settinghashBlock.CheckCanLock()then passed the null hash tomapBlockIndex.at(), which throwsstd::out_of_rangefrom the InstantSend worker path.Require a non-null block hash before consulting
mapBlockIndex. An unlocked, unmined parent remains ineligible for InstantSend, matching the existing policy for an unlocked parent in the main mempool.Code changes brief

This overlaps #1939 in
quorums_instantsend.h,src/test/CMakeLists.txt, andquorums_instantsend_tests.cppbecause both changes add InstantSend unit coverage. The production behavior changes are distinct. Whichever PR lands second will need a small test-file reconciliation.
