Issue being fixed or feature implemented

Split from #7999 as it requires extra backports and 7999 is already over-size.

What was done?

Regular backports from Bitcoin Core v25 + 2 extra backports from the latest versions with relevant fixes.

How Has This Been Tested?

Run unit & functional tests.

- Line 730: Update the amount comparison in the spend-selection flow to use
consistent units: when m_subtract_fee_outputs is false, start from the effective
total, matching SelectCoins, before subtracting total_discarded and comparing
with value_to_select. Preserve the existing face-value behavior when fee
subtraction is enabled.
- Line 522: Update the discarded-group handling around accepted and
positive_only so a group rejected in the mixed pass is not used to reject
payment when its outputs are accepted by the positive-only pass. Reconcile
accepted outputs across both passes before applying ret_discarded_groups to the
insufficient-funds check.

Walkthrough

GroupOutputs now records groups rejected by all selection filters while retaining the existing overload. AutomaticCoinSelection subtracts those groups from available funds and checks whether ancestor or descendant package limits explain an insufficient-funds result. When selection attempts fail, it returns the first detailed error or a general insufficient-funds error. Functional tests cover long unconfirmed chains and an avoid-reuse wallet scenario.

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

Possibly related PRs

• dashpay/dash#7927: Changes the same wallet coin-selection grouping and selection flow.
• dashpay/dash#7999: Changes the same GroupOutputs and AutomaticCoinSelection implementation and tests long unconfirmed chains.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to ad9be

Some payments with selectable funds can fail as insufficient, and other long-chain failures can show the wrong error. Correct the coin-selection accounting before merging.

Do not discard outputs accepted by the positive-only pass.

With avoidpartialspends, a confirmed positive-effective output and a negative-effective, long-chain output can share a script. The mixed group is rejected, but the positive-only group can be accepted. This line records the mixed group as discarded. The check at Line 730 can then subtract the confirmed output and return “Insufficient funds” before selection tries it. Reconcile accepted outputs across both passes before using discarded groups to reject the payment. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Compare amounts in the same units.

GetTotalAmount() sums UTXO face values, but total_discarded sums GetSelectionAmount(), which normally uses effective values. If eligible confirmed outputs have a face value above value_to_select but an effective value below it, this check can miss a long-chain shortfall and return the generic error instead. Start with the effective total when m_subtract_fee_outputs is false, as SelectCoins does. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2

Verified the combined reviewer evidence against head ad9bef6 and the upstream patches. No blocking merge-resolution or Dash-specific correctness issue was confirmed; one non-blocking suggestion remains for omitted upstream unit coverage and its supporting declaration. Static diff checks passed without modifying files; current CI builds, lint, and completed tests pass, with linux64_multiprocess-test / Test source still pending.

🟡 Suggestion: Declared partial backport omits bitcoin#36284 unit regression coverage
src/wallet/test/group_outputs_tests.cpp:201-205

Upstream bitcoin#36284 adds a direct regression assertion immediately after this check: call the five-argument GroupOutputs overload with avoid_partial_spends enabled and verify discarded_groups.size() == 2U. Dash already has both depth-ineligible fixture UTXOs and the required selection-parameter helper, but this backport omits that assertion and the supporting declaration in spend.h. Include both upstream hunks while retaining Dash's LEGACY fixture adaptation. The missing header declaration is not independently a production interface defect: current external callers use the preserved four-argument overload, and the five-argument implementation is visible to its production callers in spend.cpp. The BACKPORT NOTE explicitly documents the omission, and the functional regression is retained, so this is non-blocking test completeness rather than a missing production prerequisite. If the unit coverage is deferred, link a tracking issue for the omitted hunks.
