Cross-program balanced instruction handling is too restrictive
Problem
The MessageProcessor's balanced instruction check ensures the Lamport sum of all accounts in the instruction remains the same before and after the instruction. Cross-program invocations only include the accounts required by the invoked instruction and thus leaves out any transfers the invoking program may have made to other accounts before the call to invoke.
For example:
For programs A and B and accounts X, Y, Z
- A transfers lamports from X to Y
- A invokes B passing Y, Z
- balanced instruction check fails because it does not take into account the lamports in X
It requires developers to be aware of when they transfer tokens relative to any invocations they are making.
Proposed Solution
Include all accounts in the balance calculations
@jstarry
@jackcmay - do you want to keep this in 1.2 or punt to 1.3?
@mvines I think given the other priorities punting to 1.3 is more realistic
Looks like this is breaking Wormhole guardian set upgrades, which - if the subsidizer pool is full - do:
- A CPI call.
- Transfer lamports from the bridge's subsidizer pool.
- Another CPI call.

@leoluk One workaround is to do all in-program transfers at the end of a program's execution, is that possible here?
Does anyone ever intend to fix this? I have not tried it yet but I think this means programs cannot do the following basic procedure:
- transfer lamports to a wSOL token account by directly decrementing lamports from a program owned account
- SyncNative the wSOL account
+1 trying to do the exact same use case that @billythedummy speaks about.
transfer + sync native
It's not possible right now, so what is a workaround?
Any updates on this one? I am also trying to:
- transfer lamports to a wSOL token account by directly decrementing lamports from a program owned account
- SyncNative the wSOL account
Any updates on this one? I am also trying to:

Now, I am also trying to do this. Do you have any resolution?
@toptalhook The only thing you can do is wrap the SOL on a normal(non-program-owned) account and transfer wSOL to the program-owned account.

This is still not possible in 2024. Please, someone take a look.
