The solana-program crate can be used in certain embedded environments (HSMs) where the source of entropy, whether used for cryptographic purposes or not, is tightly controlled. In these cases, using the default OS source of entrophy is not always acceptable. Thus, using the default Rust stdlib entropy source for seeding its default hasher, is prohibited. This means any use of HashMap/HashSet must be able to be constructed and used with a custom hasher implementation. This commit removes the use of Itertools::unique() to dedupe Instructions that are being compiled into a new Message, which uses a default-configured HashMap under-the-hood. Instead, we use a BTreeSet which does not invoke any entropy source in order to seed a hash implementation. (cherry picked from commit 4da435f2a031423d2c1194b90070edad63945cf2)
Solana Program
Use the Solana Program Crate to write on-chain programs in Rust. If writing client-side applications, use the Solana SDK Crate instead.
More information about Solana is available in the Solana documentation.
Helloworld and the Solana Program Library provide examples of how to use this crate.
