[jackcmay]

Problem

Needs to be updated for mainnet:

solana/genesis-programs/src/lib.rs

Line 68 in 9290e56

if epoch == std::u64::MAX {

And a collection of PRs must be backported

• Re-route program logging #10528
• Align host addresses #11384
• Unified signature for create_program_address #11460
• Make BPF Loader static #11516
• Specify loader when bootstrapping BPF programs #11571
• Add SystemInstruction::CreateAccount support to CPI #11649
• Fix region check #11651
• Feature check CPI up front #11652
• More efficient padding #11656
• Aligned program heap #11657
• Return an error from create_program_address syscall #11658
• cli: Add (hidden) --use-deprecated-loader flag to solana deploy #11675
• CPI support for bpf_loader_deprecated #11695
• The constraints on compute power a program can consume is limited only to its instruction count #11717
• sdk: Make PubKey::create_program_address available in program unit tests #11745
• Switch programs activation to whole-set based gating #11750
• Gate aligned program heap #11808
• Bump compute budget #11864

Proposed Solution

@jackcmay FYI, I'm stacking #12068 to this list. (After all of the above prs are backported into v1.2, I can backport #12068 by myself).

@ryoqun We are probably going to forgo this port into 1.2 and just wait for 1.3 on mainnet

Oh, i see!

Nothing much to track here. Once mainnet-beta upgrades to v1.3 we'll flip on the new bpfloader2 feature
