//! Sequences of [`Instruction`]s executed within a single transaction.
//!
//! [`Instruction`]: crate::instruction::Instruction
//!
//! In Solana, programs execute instructions, and clients submit sequences
//! of instructions to the network to be atomically executed as [`Transaction`]s.
//!
//! [`Transaction`]: https://docs.rs/solana-sdk/latest/solana-sdk/transaction/struct.Transaction.html
//!
//! A [`Message`] is the compact internal encoding of a transaction, as
//! transmitted across the network and stored in, and operated on, by the
//! runtime. It contains a flat array of all accounts accessed by all
//! instructions in the message, a [`MessageHeader`] that describes the layout
//! of that account array, a [recent blockhash], and a compact encoding of the
//! message's instructions.
//!
//! [recent blockhash]: https://solana.com/docs/core/transactions#recent-blockhash
//!
//! Clients most often deal with `Instruction`s and `Transaction`s, with
//! `Message`s being created by `Transaction` constructors.
//!
//! To ensure reliable network delivery, serialized messages must fit into the
//! IPv6 MTU size, conservatively assumed to be 1280 bytes. Thus constrained,
//! care must be taken in the amount of data consumed by instructions, and the
//! number of accounts they require to function.
//!
//! This module defines two versions of `Message` in their own modules:
//! [`legacy`] and [`v0`]. `legacy` is reexported here and is the current
//! version as of Solana 1.10.0. `v0` is a [future message format] that encodes
//! more account keys into a transaction than the legacy format. The
//! [`VersionedMessage`] type is a thin wrapper around either message version.
//!
//! [future message format]: https://docs.solanalabs.com/proposals/versioned-transactions
//!
//! Despite living in the `solana-program` crate, there is no way to access the
//! runtime's messages from within a Solana program, and only the legacy message
//! types continue to be exposed to Solana programs, for backwards compatibility
//! reasons.

/// `Instruction`s are converted to [`CompiledInstruction`]s. Those

/// - accounts that are read-only and signers
/// - accounts that are writable and not signers
/// - accounts that are read-only and not signers
///
/// Given this ordering, the fields of `MessageHeader` describe which accounts
/// in a transaction require which permissions.

/// may process them in parallel, in a single [PoH] entry. Transactions that
/// access the same read-write accounts are processed sequentially.
