Description
@vitvly reported that he sees often in status-go logs the line
"could not retrieve random peer from slot" error="no suitable peers found"
. When reviewing the code, I see that since status-go does not use service slots for retrieving peers supporting filter protocol, but instead depends on the peers that are discovered, this error was generated and logged very frequently.Since this is not an error per se but a possible outcome of just not having peers registered in the service slots, I did a small refactor to only log errors if different from
ErrNoPeersAvailable
, as well as adding more information to the logs like the protocol and pubsub topic being retrieved.I also include a minor refactor to not need to use pointers for the peerID
