Summary of changes

Changes introduced in this pull request:

  • Ports fix(eth): return pending eth tx from eth_getTransactionByHash when txHash index is missing filecoin-project/lotus#13677
  • Ports fix(eth): propagate message read errors during log conversion filecoin-project/lotus#13926
  • eth_getLogs, eth_getFilterLogs, eth_getFilterChanges, eth_getTransactionReceipt, eth_getBlockReceipts and their Limited variants return an error naming the message instead of silently dropping an event whose message cannot be read.
  • eth_getTransactionByHash and eth_getTransactionByHashLimited find a pending transaction received from another node. Such a transaction has no hash→CID mapping until it is mined, so the mempool fallback now also matches delegated messages by their Ethereum hash.
  • The same two methods report a pending transaction's hash and from instead of zeros
  • Tests: Lotus's conversion table, the hash-lookup error, and a pending-transaction test (mapping miss, mapping hit, unknown hash) on a real message pool. New devnet trial forest-dev devnet eth-pending-tx: a transaction submitted through Lotus with a nonce gap, looked up on Forest while pending, hash/from/nonce checked against Lotus's answer.

Change checklist

  • I have performed a self-review of my own code,
  • I have made corresponding changes to the documentation. All new code adheres to the team's documentation standards,
  • I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works (if possible),
  • I have made sure the CHANGELOG is up-to-date. All user-facing changes should be reflected in this document.

Outside contributions

  • This pull request is based on an issue that a maintainer has accepted (see Before Opening a Pull Request).
  • I have read and agree to the CONTRIBUTING document.
  • I have read and agree to the AI Policy document. I understand that failure to comply with the guidelines will lead to rejection of the pull request.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Pending Ethereum transactions found through eth_getTransactionByHash now report their actual hash and sender, and are correctly identified as unmined, whether or not a hash mapping is available.
    • Ethereum log and receipt RPC methods now return an error when an event message cannot be read, rather than returning partial logs.
    • Filecoin.StateCall uses the node’s gas cap when GasLimit is 0; larger limits are rejected.
  • New Features
    • Added a devnet integration test command to check pending transaction lookups across Lotus and Forest.
  • Documentation
    • Updated the CLI reference and devnet testing guide with the new command.

Walkthrough

The RPC lookup now returns pending delegated Ethereum transactions with their hash and sender. Event-log conversion now returns errors when message reads fail. A new devnet command tests pending transaction lookup through Lotus and Forest.

Changes

Pending Ethereum transactions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Pending transaction lookup
src/rpc/methods/eth.rs, CHANGELOG.md
The lookup matches pending delegated transactions by mapped CID or Ethereum hash and returns transaction details. Tests cover lookup with and without a mapping, and unknown hashes.
Devnet test and command integration
src/dev/subcommands/devnet_cmd.rs, src/dev/subcommands/devnet_cmd/eth_pending_tx.rs, src/dev/subcommands/tests_cmd/helpers.rs, scripts/devnet/*, .github/workflows/forest.yml, docs/docs/users/reference/cli.md, docs/docs/users/reference/cli.sh
The devnet command submits a nonce-gap transaction through Lotus and checks its pending response from Forest. Scripts and the workflow run the command. The CLI and integration-test documentation describe it.

Event message read errors

Layer / File(s) Summary
Message decoding and event-log errors
src/rpc/methods/eth.rs, CHANGELOG.md
Message-hash conversion returns an error when signed- and unsigned-message reads fail. Event-log conversion propagates the error instead of skipping an unreadable event. Tests cover readable and unreadable messages, empty input, and non-Ethereum event data.

StateCall changelog

Layer / File(s) Summary
StateCall cap note
CHANGELOG.md
The unreleased Filecoin.StateCall entry names FOREST_STATE_CALL_GAS_LIMIT as a way to configure the node cap.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 371b1

The broken changelog links are fixed, and the StateCall guidance is accurate. No issue identified here prevents merging after normal checks.

2693-2704: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Pending lookup without a mapping scans the full mempool and recomputes each hash.

When no mapping exists, each call runs eth_tx_from_delegated_message on every pending message. That conversion includes a transaction build and a hash computation. The cost grows with mempool size on every eth_getTransactionByHash miss. Lotus uses the same approach, so this is acceptable for parity. Consider comparing a cheap precheck first, such as smsg.is_delegated(), to skip non-delegated messages before the conversion.
