+A Linux [Snap](https://snapcraft.io/) is available, which can be used to

+```bash
+$ sudo snap install solana --edge --devmode
+```
+(`--devmode` flag is required only for `solana.fullnode-cuda`)
+
+Once installed the usual Solana programs will be available as `solona.*` instead
+of `solana-*`.  For example, `solana.fullnode` instead of `solana-fullnode`.

+Our CI infrastructure is built around [BuildKite](https://buildkite.com) with some
+additional GitHub integration provided by https://github.com/mvines/ci-gate
+
+## Agent Queues
+
+We define two [Agent Queues](https://buildkite.com/docs/agent/v3/queues):
+`queue=default` and `queue=cuda`.  The `default` queue should be favored and
+runs on lower-cost CPU instances.  The `cuda` queue is only necessary for
+running **tests** that depend on GPU (via CUDA) access -- CUDA builds may still
+be run on the `default` queue, and the [buildkite artifact
+system](https://buildkite.com/docs/builds/artifacts) used to transfer build
+products over to a GPU instance for testing.
+
+## Buildkite Agent Management
+
+### Buildkite GCP Setup
+
+CI runs on Google Cloud Platform via two Compute Engine Instance groups:
+`ci-default` and `ci-cuda`.  Autoscaling is currently disabled and the number of
+VM Instances in each group is manually adjusted.
+
+#### Updating a CI Disk Image
+
+Each Instance group has its own disk image, `ci-default-vX` and
+`ci-cuda-vY`, where *X* and *Y* are incremented each time the image is changed.
+
+The process to update a disk image is as follows (TODO: make this less manual):
+
+1. Create a new VM Instance using the disk image to modify.
+2. Once the VM boots, ssh to it and modify the disk as desired.
+3. Stop the VM Instance running the modified disk.  Remember the name of the VM disk
+4. From another machine, `gcloud auth login`, then create a new Disk Image based
+off the modified VM Instance:
+```
+ $ gcloud compute images create ci-default-v5 --source-disk xxx --source-disk-zone us-east1-b
+```
+or
+```
+  $ gcloud compute images create ci-cuda-v5 --source-disk xxx --source-disk-zone us-east1-b
+```
+5. Delete the new VM instance.
+6. Go to the Instance templates tab, find the existing template named
+`ci-default-vX` or `ci-cuda-vY` and select it.  Use the "Copy" button to create
+a new Instance template called `ci-default-vX+1` or `ci-cuda-vY+1` with the
+newly created Disk image.
+7. Go to the Instance Groups tag and find the applicable group, `ci-default` or
+`ci-cuda`.  Edit the Instance Group in two steps: (a) Set the number of
+instances to 0 and wait for them all to terminate, (b) Update the Instance
+template and restore the number of instances to the original value.
+8. Clean up the previous version by deleting it from Instance Templates and
+Images. 
+
+
+## Reference
+
+### Buildkite AWS CloudFormation Setup
+
+**AWS CloudFormation is currently inactive, although it may be restored in the
+future**
+
+AWS CloudFormation can be used to scale machines up and down based on the
+current CI load.  If no machine is currently running it can take up to 60
+seconds to spin up a new instance, please remain calm during this time.
+
+#### AMI
+We use a custom AWS AMI built via https://github.com/solana-labs/elastic-ci-stack-for-aws/tree/solana/cuda.
+
+Use the following process to update this AMI as dependencies change:
+```bash
+$ export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=my_access_key
+$ export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=my_secret_access_key
+$ git clone https://github.com/solana-labs/elastic-ci-stack-for-aws.git -b solana/cuda
+$ cd elastic-ci-stack-for-aws/
+$ make build
+$ make build-ami
+```
+
+Watch for the *"amazon-ebs: AMI:"* log message to extract the name of the new
+AMI.  For example:
+```
+amazon-ebs: AMI: ami-07118545e8b4ce6dc
+```
+The new AMI should also now be visible in your EC2 Dashboard.  Go to the desired
+AWS CloudFormation stack, update the **ImageId** field to the new AMI id, and
+*apply* the stack changes.

+# Smart Contracts Engine
+
+The goal of this RFC is to define a set of constraints for APIs and runtime such that we can execute our smart contracts safely on massively parallel hardware such as a GPU.  Our runtime is built around an OS *syscall* primitive.  The difference in blockchain is that now the OS does a cryptographic check of memory region ownership before accessing the memory in the Solana kernel.

+     +---------------------+       +---------------------+
+
+                [Figure 1. Smart Contracts Stack]
+
+In Figure 1 an untrusted client, creates a program in the front-end language of her choice, (like C/C++/Rust/Lua), and compiles it with LLVM to a position independent shared object ELF, targeting BPF bytecode. Solana will safely load and execute the ELF.
+
+## Bytecode
+
+Our bytecode is based on Berkley Packet Filter. The requirements for BPF overlap almost exactly with the requirements we have:
+
+1. Deterministic amount of time to execute the code
+2. Bytecode that is portable between machine instruction sets
+3. Verified memory accesses
+4. Fast to load the object, verify the bytecode and JIT to local machine instruction set
+
+For 1, that means that loops are unrolled, and for any jumps back we can guard them with a check against the number of instruction that have been executed at this point.  If the limit is reached, the program yields its execution.  This involves saving the stack and current instruction index.
+
+For 2, the BPF bytecode already easily maps to x86–64, arm64 and other instruction sets. 
+
+For 3, every load and store that is relative can be checked to be within the expected memory that is passed into the ELF.  Dynamic load and stores can do a runtime check against available memory, these will be slow and should be avoided.
+
+For 4, Fully linked PIC ELF with just a single RX segment. Effectively we are linking a shared object with `-fpic -target bpf` and with a linker script to collect everything into a single RX segment. Writable globals are not supported.
+
+## Loader
+The loader is our first smart contract. The job of this contract is to load the actual program with its own instance data.  The loader will verify the bytecode and that the object implements the expected entry points.
+
+Since there is only one RX segment, the context for the contract instance is passed into each entry point as well as the event data for that entry point.
+
+A client will create a transaction to create a new loader instance:
+
+`Solana_NewLoader(Loader Instance PubKey, proof of key ownership, space I need for my elf)`
+
+A client will then do a bunch of transactions to load its elf into the loader instance they created:
+
+`Loader_UploadElf(Loader Instance PubKey, proof of key ownership, pos start, pos end, data)`
+
+At this point the client can create a new instance of the module with its own instance address:
+
+`Loader_NewInstance(Loader Instance PubKey, proof of key ownership, Instance PubKey, proof of key ownership)`
+
+Once the instance has been created, the client may need to upload more user data to solana to configure this instance:
+
+`Instance_UploadModuleData(Instance PubKey, proof of key ownership, pos start, pos end, data)`
+
+Now clients can `start` the instance:
+
+`Instance_Start(Instance PubKey, proof of key ownership)`
+
+## Runtime
+
+Our goal with the runtime is to have a general purpose execution environment that is highly parallelizable and doesn't require dynamic resource management. We want to execute as many contracts as we can in parallel, and have them pass or fail without a destructive state change.
+
+### State and Entry Point
+
+State is addressed by an account which is at the moment simply the PubKey.  Our goal is to eliminate dynamic memory allocation in the smart contract itself, so the contract is a function that takes a mapping of [(PubKey,State)] and returns [(PubKey, State')].  The output of keys is a subset of the input.  Three basic kinds of state exist:
+
+* Instance State
+* Participant State
+* Caller State
+
+There isn't any difference in how each is implemented, but conceptually Participant State is memory that is allocated for each participant in the contract.  Instance State is memory that is allocated for the contract itself, and Caller State is memory that the transactions caller has allocated.
+
+
+### Call
+
+```
+void call(
+    const struct instance_data *data,
+    const uint8_t kind[],  //instance|participant|caller|read|write
+    const uint8_t *keys[],
+    uint8_t *data[],
+    int num,
+    uint8_t dirty[],        //dirty memory bits
+    uint8_t *userdata,      //current transaction data
+);
+```
+
+To call this operation, the transaction that is destined to the contract instance specifies what keyed state it should present to the `call` function.  To allocate the state memory or a call context, the client has to first call a function on the contract with the designed address that will own the state.
+
+At its core, this is a system call that requires cryptographic proof of ownership of memory regions instead of an OS that checks page tables for access rights.
+
+* `Instance_AllocateContext(Instance PubKey, My PubKey, Proof of key ownership)`
+
+Any transaction can then call `call` on the contract with a set of keys.  It's up to the contract itself to manage ownership:
+
+* `Instance_Call(Instance PubKey, [Context PubKeys], proofs of ownership, userdata...)`
+
+Contracts should be able to read any state that is part of solana, but only write to state that the contract allocated.
+
+#### Caller State
+
+Caller `state` is memory allocated for the `call` that belongs to the public key that is issuing the `call`.  This is the caller's context.
+
+#### Instance State
+
+Instance `state` is memory that belongs to this contract instance.  We may also need module-wide `state` as well.
+
+#### Participant State
+
+Participant `state` is any other memory.  In some cases it may make sense to have these allocated as part of the call by the caller.
+
+### Reduce
+
+Some operations on the contract will require iteration over all the keys.  To make this parallelizable the iteration is broken up into reduce calls which are combined.
+
+```
+void reduce_m(
+    const struct instance_data *data,
+    const uint8_t *keys[],
+    const uint8_t *data[],
+    int num,
+    uint8_t *reduce_data,
+);
+
+void reduce_r(
+    const struct instance_data *data,
+    const uint8_t *reduce_data[],
+    int num,
+    uint8_t *reduce_data,
+);
+```
+
+### Execution
+
+Transactions are batched and processed in parallel at each stage.
+```
++-----------+    +--------------+      +-----------+    +---------------+
+| sigverify |-+->| debit commit |---+->| execution |-+->| memory commit |
++-----------+ |  +--------------+   |  +-----------+ |  +---------------+
+              |                     |                |
+              |  +---------------+  |                |  +--------------+
+              |->| memory verify |->+                +->| debit undo   |
+                 +---------------+                   |  +--------------+
+                                                     |
+                                                     |  +---------------+
+                                                     +->| credit commit |
+                                                        +---------------+
+
+
+```
+The `debit verify` stage is very similar to `memory verify`.  Proof of key ownership is used to check if the callers key has some state allocated with the contract, then the memory is loaded and executed.  After execution stage, the dirty pages are written back by the contract.  Because know all the memory accesses during execution, we can batch transactions that do not interfere with each other.  We can also apply the `debit undo` and `credit commit` stages of the transaction.  `debit undo` is run in case of an exception during contract execution, only transfers may be reversed, fees are commited to solana.
+
+### GPU execution
+
+A single contract can read and write to separate key pairs without interference.  These separate calls to the same contract can execute on the same GPU thread over different memory using different SIMD lanes.
+
+## Notes
+
+1. There is no dynamic memory allocation.
+2. Persistant Memory is allocated to a Key with ownership
+3. Contracts can `call` to update key owned state
+4. Contracts can `reduce` over the memory to aggregate state
+5. `call` is just a *syscall* that does a cryptographic check of memory owndershp
