Clamp update_registrar version for legacy masternodes
When DEPLOYMENT_V24 is active, this assignment makes protx update_registrar default to version 3, but legacy masternodes (dmn->pdmnState->nVersion == LegacyBLS) are still required by IsVersionChangeValid in src/evo/specialtxman.cpp to move to version 2 before any higher version. As a result, the RPC now constructs transactions that fail with bad-protx-version-upgrade for legacy nodes, which breaks the legacy→basic upgrade path (and related registrar updates) via the standard RPC. update_service and revoke already avoid this with a BasicBLS clamp, so update_registrar is now inconsistent and regresses behavior introduced by this commit.

Code Review
The refactor is sound but introduces a regression in the non-legacy protx update_registrar RPC: after V24 activates, it produces a v3 ProUpRegTx that consensus rejects when the masternode is still in LegacyBLS state, and also trips a CHECK_NONFATAL when the caller reuses the existing legacy operator key. Sibling RPCs (update_service, revoke) have the correct BasicBLS clamp and update_registrar should match. Test coverage for the newly-permitted v3 ProUpRegTx/ProUpRevTx path is also missing.

Concept NACK
From commit d86d5716a126b19adec84daf6bc600b502ae045a
CProRegTx and CProUpServTx used to be the only type of protx that have
a different version. It is theoretically acceptable in assumption that
there is no new features or version will ever be introduced for protx
special transaction.
The versioning system made an assumption that any change in ProTx structures will affect all fields uniformly, leaving certain fields v2 and others v3 allows us to prevent unexpected upgrades based on changes to fields that were never modified and thus prevents the propagation of serialisation directives based on fields never changed.
Even if the RPC sets the version we intend, removing a way to distinguish what txType is allowed to set the version at the consensus level means a patch in RPC could allow corruption of the masternode list as it'll see a v3 transaction, assume v3 serialization and then on client restart, cannot recognise the bytes on disk as it's v2 bytes but v3 version.
A theoretical v4 would follow the same pattern, set the version where the fields could be updated (always at creation OR for existing nodes, when the relevant ProTx is submitted) and then version-solve accordingly. The current system doesn't block that.
Let's assume that revocation is now at v4, future rules could force that you first upgrade to v3 by submitting a new ProUpRegTx (explicit user action that submits the new ser format) to then use v4 ProUpRevTx (to avoid getting a v2 to v4 not allowed error).

The reason we have version transition rules is to prevent the node from being classed as ExtAddr without actually opting in to it at creation or by explicitly updating the service.
Especially since once the version is upgraded the serialisation format changes. By classifying all transactions ExtAddr, a revoke transaction could indicate that the node intends to follow ExtAddr serialization when that was a) not the user's intention and b) will cause serialization mismatches which are very dependent on the version (see below)

We can probably drop this TODO since the legacy RPCs won't be going anywhere even after deprecation due to hard requirements in functional tests, we already have network rules to enforce the deprecation at a consensus level but the RPCs themselves remain indispensible.
No, they would not, because:
|
The issue isn't the new node creation path, it's the upgrade path, say
But without at a minimum restricting the upgrade path, a specially crafted transaction could update the expected serialization to v3 with a ProUpRevTx (despite holding no service data but now allowed to mark itself as v3) and then on restart, when reading the masternode list and encountering a v3, find the v2 bytes unrecognizable and emit an error. |

Backfill payouts when service updates promote v2 states
Because v3 states now take the payouts branch, a basic v2 masternode upgraded by a post-v24 ProUpServTx loses its owner payee: the service-update path in CSpecialTxProcessor::RebuildListFromBlock can raise nVersion from 2 to 3 while only converting netInfo, and v2 states have an empty payouts vector because they serialized scriptPayout. After that, GetOwnerPayouts(state) returns an empty list, so masternode payment construction omits the owner payout (and callers that use .front() can fail) until a registrar update backfills it. Please migrate scriptPayout to LegacyPayoutAsList when any non-registrar version bump crosses ExtAddr.

No prior finding is resolved, and the latest delta introduces no new finding; it is a 16-commit rebase with base-context adaptations. git diff --check, Python syntax validation, and circular-dependency lint passed; no C++ test binary was available.

- [BLOCKING] src/evo/providertx.h:105-114: Do not reinterpret existing version-3 ProRegTx payloads
Carried forward from 42f8aee6c200. Dash v23.1.7 serialized every version-3 ProRegTx with a single scriptPayout, while the pre-PR develop branch reserved the payout-count and payout-share layout for version 4. This branch changes the threshold to ExtAddr, so an existing v3 script's CompactSize length is decoded as payouts_count and the remaining bytes are consumed as payout records, causing historical v3 transactions to fail replay or decode incorrectly. The same threshold change in src/evo/dmnstate.h:104-107 reinterprets existing v3 deterministic-masternode state bytes. Version 3 was permitted after V24 activation, including persistent devnets whose deployment became eligible on July 1, 2025, and the PR description provides no reset or migration policy. Preserve the deployed v3 layout, introduce a distinct version for payout shares, or provide an explicit compatible migration path.

Commit 8b9c2e80532 directly corrects behavior introduced by c01a1ed19a7: it migrates scriptPayout before SetStateVersion() can return early and guards the consumer against the resulting empty payout list.

Preliminary review — Codex only
The latest delta fixes the stale unit-test name, but the resulting one-line fixup commit should be autosquashed into the commit that changed the expected behavior. Across the cumulative PR, two carried-forward correctness blockers remain: version 3 is assigned an incompatible serialization layout despite already being released, and v1-to-v3 state promotion leaves the operator key and uniqueness index in the legacy encoding. Three carried-forward commit-history findings also remain open.
Validated blockers were found in the Codex precheck. Sonnet is deferred until a fresh Codex revalidation clears the blocker gate.

- [BLOCKING] src/evo/providertx.h:105-114: Do not reinterpret existing version-3 ProRegTx payloads
Dash v23.1.3 already defines `ExtAddr = 3` and serializes one `scriptPayout` for version-3 `CProRegTx` and `CProUpRegTx` payloads; its `CDeterministicMNState` uses the same single-script representation. The released devnet parameters also allow V24 activation, so version-3 registrations and persisted states can already exist. This branch instead treats version 3 as the former version-4 payout-vector format: the serialized script length becomes `payouts_count`, and subsequent script or transaction bytes are consumed as payout records. The equivalent changes at `src/evo/providertx.h:245-254` and `src/evo/dmnstate.h:104-107` affect registrar decoding and deterministic-list snapshots. Preserve the released version-3 representation, or retain a distinct payload version and provide an explicit persistent-state migration.

Commit `8b9c2e80532` directly repairs behavior introduced by `c01a1ed19a7`: without migrating `scriptPayout` before `SetStateVersion()` can return, promotion to version 3 can lose the owner payout. Commit `9a86b0871a2` later adds the matching regression coverage. Fold the production fix and its test into `c01a1ed19a7` so every retained commit has valid state-migration behavior.

The latest commit, `f43dbc09f1b` (`fix: regression test case fixup`), correctly renames `proupreg_v3_on_legacy_rejected` to `proupreg_v3_on_legacy_valid`. The stale name was left by `8cb7d3a7de2`, which changed the helper and assertion from rejected to valid behavior. Fold this one-line fixup into `8cb7d3a7de2` so the retained history does not contain a generic fixup commit or an intermediate test whose name contradicts its assertion.
…rdingly code style
…dation This commit replaces usage of helpers GetPayload+IsTrivialValid to GetValidatedPayload It unifies validation between regression tests and production code and useful for the next commits in PR
CProRegTx and CProUpServTx used to be the only type of protx that have a different version. It is theoretically acceptable in assumption that there is no new features or version will ever be introduced for protx special transaction. Though, for better compatibility for futher version, unification, simplicity of documentation and to reduce user's confusions for after-v24 version of CProUpRegTx and CProUpRevTx are allowed to be "ext addresses" even they don't have any network related fields _at the moment_ So, since now: - version 1: legacy BLS, extended addresses disallowed (pre v19 fork) - version 2: basic BLS, extended addresses disallowed (since v19 fork) - version 3: basic BLS, extended addresses allowed, multi-payouts allowed (since v24 fork) NOTE: there are also classes CSimplifiedMNListEntry and CDeterministicMNState use the same enum for its version; moreover CDeterministicMNState inherits version directly from CProRegTx. This refactoring doesn't contradict or conflict this behavior
It helps to drop multiple circular dependencies for providertx <-> validation.h as a side effect

Preliminary review — Codex only
The force-rebased stack is logically unchanged: all six carried-forward findings remain valid, comprising two correctness blockers and four commit-history cleanup items. No genuinely new latest-delta finding was identified; the current equivalents still reinterpret released version-3 data and leave v1-to-v3 operator-key scheme and uniqueness-index migration incomplete. Changes are required before merge.
Validated blockers were found in the Codex precheck. Sonnet is deferred until a fresh Codex revalidation clears the blocker gate.

In `src/evo/providertx.h`:
- [BLOCKING] src/evo/providertx.h:105-114: Do not reinterpret existing version-3 ProRegTx payloads
Dash v23.1.3 already defines `ExtAddr = 3` and serializes one `scriptPayout` for version-3 `CProRegTx` and `CProUpRegTx` payloads; `CDeterministicMNState` uses the same single-script representation. That release also permits devnet V24 signaling from July 1, 2025, so version-3 transactions and persisted states can already exist. This branch instead selects the former version-4 payout-vector format for version 3: the serialized script length is interpreted as `payouts_count`, and subsequent bytes are consumed as payout records. The equivalent thresholds at `src/evo/providertx.h:245-254` and `src/evo/dmnstate.h:104-107` also change registrar decoding and persisted deterministic-list state. Preserve the released version-3 representation, or retain a distinct payload version and provide an explicit persistent-state migration.
In `<commit:bcd24cd6ddc>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:bcd24cd6ddc>:1: Fold the payout migration fix and regression test into the version merge
Commit `bcd24cd6ddc` directly repairs behavior introduced by `dbf0f1f35de`: without moving `scriptPayout` before `SetStateVersion()` can return early, promotion to version 3 can lose the owner payout. Commit `de9461bf91d` later adds the matching regression coverage. Fold the production correction and its test into `dbf0f1f35de` so the retained version-merge commit has valid state-migration behavior.
In `<commit:c864cbe98df>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:c864cbe98df>:1: Squash or reword the review-feedback test commit
Commit `c864cbe98df` remains titled `test: address review comments about preserving v2 / v3 version for dmnstate`, which records transient review conversation rather than the durable behavior covered by the functional test. Fold it into the relevant versioning change or reword it to describe V24 ProTx state-version preservation.
In `<commit:b6260a521ed>`:
- [SUGGESTION] <commit:b6260a521ed>:1: Autosquash the one-line regression-test fixup
The current tip is a one-line commit titled `fix: regression test case fixup`, renaming `proupreg_v3_on_legacy_rejected` to `proupreg_v3_on_legacy_valid`. The stale name was left by `cd6475774c5`, which changed the helper and assertion from rejected to valid behavior. Fold this fixup into `cd6475774c5` so permanent history does not retain a generic corrective commit or an intermediate test whose name contradicts its assertion.
Issue being fixed or feature implemented
Until now, CProRegTx and CProUpServTx were the only ProTx subtypes that could carry a higher version (v3, ext-addresses). With v4 introduced with masternode payout this gap is even more strange.
What was done?
For better forward-compatibility, uniform documentation, and less user confusion, after v24 CProUpRegTx and CProUpRevTx are also allowed to use the "ext-addresses" version, even though they don't carry any network-related fields at the moment.
Functionality of "multi-payout" is merged to v3 protx; v4 protx are removed.
They both activated by v24 fork and that's possible that multiple-payout masternode is using external address; it's completely find situation and existing v4 separation is artificial.
From now on:
NOTE: CSimplifiedMNListEntry and CDeterministicMNState use the same enum for its version; moreover CDeterministicMNState inherits version directly from CProRegTx. This refactoring is possible due already existing versioning of state's object.
It also simplifies the implementation, drops the dependency of evo/providertx.h on validation.h and reduces the number of circular dependencies over evo/providertx.
The regression test now goes through the same GetValidatedPayload helper that consensus uses, instead of calling GetTxPayload + IsTriviallyValid directly.
How Has This Been Tested?
Run unit / functional tests.
Breaking Changes
After v24, CProUpRegTx and CProUpRevTx may now be serialized at version 3, which they were previously not eligible for. The bad-protx-version-tx-type consensus check is removed accordingly so these txes are accepted at version 3.
v4 protx is removed by merging functionality to v3. They are activated by the same fork and this diversion is not required.
