bad one could get overlapping blocks in error making the code assert when
a new job request comes in.
-- BGQ - handle pending actions on a block better when trying to deallocate it.
-- Accounting - Fixed issue where if nodenames have changed on a system and
you query against that with -N and -E you will get all jobs during that
time instead of only the ones running on -N.
-- Accounting - If a job start message fails to the SlurmDBD reset the db_inx
so it gets sent again. This isn't a major problem since the start will
happen when the job ends, but this does make things cleaner.
-- If an salloc is waiting for an allocation to happen and is canceled by the
user mark the state canceled instead of completed.
-- Fix issue in accounting if a user puts a '\' in their job name.

This is needed for when a free request is added to a block but there are
jobs finishing up so we don't start new jobs on the block since they will
fail on start.

user's pending allocation was started with srun and then for some reason
the slurmctld was brought down and while it was down the srun was removed.
-- Fixed InactiveLimit math to work correctly
-- BGQ - Add logic to make it so blocks can't use a midplane with a nodeboard

correctly. Before the errno wasn't being checked correctly
-- BGQ - fixed srun when only requesting a task count and not a node count
to operate the same way salloc or sbatch did and assign a task per cpu
by default instead of task per node.

submit when required nodes are up, but completing a job or in exclusive
job allocation.
-- Add HWLOC_FLAGS so linking to libslurm works correctly
-- BGQ - If using backfill and a shared block is running at least one job
and a job comes through backfill and can fit on the block without ending
jobs don't set an end_time for the running jobs since they don't need to
end to start the job.
-- Initialize bind_verbose when using task/cgroup.
-- BGQ - Fix for handling backfill much better when sharing blocks.
-- BGQ - Fix for making small blocks on first pass if not sharing blocks.

========================
-- BLUEGENE - Correct potential deadlock issue when hardware goes bad and
there are jobs running on that hardware.
-- If job is submitted to more than one partition, it's partition pointer can
be set to an invalid value. This can result in the count of CPUs allocated
on a node being bad, resulting in over- or under-allocation of its CPUs.
Patch by Carles Fenoy, BSC.
-- Fix bug in task layout with select/cons_res plugin and --ntasks-per-node
option. Patch by Martin Perry, Bull.
-- BLUEGENE - remove race condition where if a block is removed while waiting
for a job to finish on it the number of unused cpus wasn't updated
correctly.
-- BGQ - make sure we have a valid block when creating or finishing a step
allocation.

hardware is marked bad remove the larger block and create a block over
just the bad hardware making the other hardware available to run on.

Patch from Alejandro Lucero Palau, BSC.
-- BLUEGENE - Fix for handling blocks when a larger block will not free and
while it is attempting to free underlying hardware is marked in error
making small blocks overlapping with the freeing block. This only
applies to dynamic layout mode.
-- Cray and BlueGene - Do not treat lack of usable front-end nodes when
slurmctld deamon starts as a fatal error. Also preserve correct front-end
node for jobs when there is more than one front-end node and the slurmctld
daemon restarts.
Morris Jette
committed
-- Correct parsing of srun/sbatch input/output/error file names so that only
the name "none" is mapped to /dev/null and not any file name starting
with "none" (e.g. "none.o").
-- BGQ - added version string to the load of the runjob_mux plugin to verify
the current plugin has been loaded when using runjob_mux_refresh_config

upon configuration. Work supported by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory
Extreme Scale Systems Center.
-- Added jobacct_gather/cgroup plugin. It is not advised to use this in
production as it isn't currently complete and doesn't provide an equivalent
substitution for jobacct_gather/linux yet. Work by Martin Perry, Bull.
* Changes in SLURM 2.4.0.pre4
=============================
-- Add logic to cache GPU file information (bitmap index mapping to device
file number) in the slurmd daemon and transfer that information to the
slurmstepd whenever a job step is initiated. This is needed to set the
appropriate CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES environment variable value when the
devices are not in strict numeric order (e.g. some GPUs are skipped).
Based upon work by Nicolas Bigaouette.
-- BGQ - Remove ability to make a sub-block with a geometry with one or more
of it's dimensions of length 3. There is a limitation in the IBM I/O
subsystem that is problematic with multiple sub-blocks with a dimension
of length 3, so we will disallow them to be able to be created. This
mean you if you ask the system for an allocation of 12 c-nodes you will
be given 16. If this is ever fix in BGQ you can remove this patch.
-- BLUEGENE - Better handling blocks that go into error state or deallocate
while jobs are running on them.
-- BGQ - fix for handling mix of steps running at same time some of which
are full allocation jobs, and others that are smaller.
-- BGQ - fix for core dump after running multiple sub-block jobs on static
blocks.
-- BGQ - fixed sync issue where if a job finishes in SLURM but not in mmcs
for a long time after the SLURM job has been flushed from the system
we don't have to worry about rebooting the block to sync the system.
-- BGQ - In scontrol/sview node counts are now displayed with
CnodeCount/CnodeErrCount so to point out there are cnodes in an error state
on the block. Draining the block and having it reboot when all jobs are
gone will clear up the cnodes in Software Failure.
-- Change default SchedulerParameters max_switch_wait field value from 60 to
300 seconds.
-- BGQ - catch errors from the kill option of the runjob client.
-- BLUEGENE - make it so the epilog runs until slurmctld tells it the job is
gone. Previously it had a timelimit which has proven to not be the right
thing.
-- FRONTEND - fix issue where if a compute node was in a down state and
an admin updates the node to idle/resume the compute nodes will go
instantly to idle instead of idle* which means no response.
-- Fix regression in 2.4.0.pre3 where number of submitted jobs limit wasn't
being honored for QOS.
-- Cray - Enable logging of BASIL communications with environment variables.
Set XML_LOG to enable logging. Set XML_LOG_LOC to specify path to log file
or "SLURM" to write to SlurmctldLogFile or unset for "slurm_basil_xml.log".
Patch from Steve Tronfinoff, CSCS.
-- FRONTEND - if a front end unexpectedly reboots kill all jobs but don't
mark front end node down.
-- FRONTEND - don't down a front end node if you have an epilog error
-- BLUEGENE - if a job has an epilog error don't down the midplane it was
running on.
-- BGQ - added new DebugFlag (NoRealTime) for only printing debug from
state change while the realtime server is running.
-- Fix multi-cluster mode with sview starting on a non-bluegene cluster going
to a bluegene cluster.
-- BLUEGENE - ability to show Rack Midplane name of midplanes in sview and
scontrol.
* Changes in SLURM 2.4.0.pre3
=============================
-- Let a job be submitted even if it exceeds a QOS limit. Job will be left
in a pending state until the QOS limit or job parameters change. Patch by
Phil Eckert, LLNL.
-- Add sacct support for the option "--name". Work by Yuri D'Elia, Center for
Biomedicine, EURAC Research, Italy.
-- Add an srun shepard process to cancel a job and/or step of the srun process
is killed abnormally (e.g. SIGKILL).
-- BGQ - handle deadlock issue when a nodeboard goes into an error state.
-- BGQ - more thorough handling of blocks with multiple jobs running on them.
-- Fix man2html process to compile in the build directory instead of the
source dir.
-- Behavior of srun --multi-prog modified so that any program arguments
specified on the command line will be appended to the program arguments
specified in the program configuration file.
-- Add new command, sdiag, which reports a variety of job scheduling
statistics. Based upon work by Alejandro Lucero Palau, BSC.
-- BLUEGENE - Added DefaultConnType to the bluegene.conf file. This makes it
so you can specify any connection type you would like (TORUS or MESH) as
the default in dynamic mode. Previously it always defaulted to TORUS.
-- Made squeue -n and -w options more consistent with salloc, sbatch, srun,
and scancel. Patch by Don Lipari, LLNL.
-- Have sacctmgr remove user records when no associations exist for that user.
-- Several header file changes for clean build with NetBSD. Patches from
Aleksej Saushev.
-- Fix for possible deadlock in accounting logic: Avoid calling
jobacct_gather_g_getinfo() until there is data to read from the socket.
-- Fix race condition that could generate "job_cnt_comp underflow" errors on
front-end architectures.
-- BGQ - Fix issue where a system with missing cables could cause core dump.
* Changes in SLURM 2.4.0.pre2
=============================
-- CRAY - Add support for GPU memory allocation using SLURM GRES (Generic
RESource) support. Work by Steve Trofinoff, CSCS.
-- Add support for job allocations with multiple job constraint counts. For
example: salloc -C "[rack1*2&rack2*4]" ... will allocate the job 2 nodes
from rack1 and 4 nodes from rack2. Support for only a single constraint
name been added to job step support.
-- BGQ - Remove old method for marking cnodes down.
-- BGQ - Remove BGP images from view in sview.
-- BGQ - print out failed cnodes in scontrol show nodes.
-- BGQ - Add srun option of "--runjob-opts" to pass options to the runjob
command.
-- FRONTEND - handle step launch failure better.
-- BGQ - Added a mutex to protect the now changing ba_system pointers.
-- BGQ - added new functionality for sub-block allocations - no preemption
for this yet though.
-- Add --name option to squeue to filter output by job name. Patch from Yuri
D'Elia.
-- BGQ - Added linking to runjob client libary which gives support to totalview
to use srun instead of runjob.
-- Add numeric range checks to scontrol update options. Patch from Phil
Eckert, LLNL.
-- Add ReconfigFlags configuration option to control actions of "scontrol
reconfig". Patch from Don Albert, Bull.
-- BGQ - handle reboots with multiple jobs running on a block.
-- BGQ - Add message handler thread to forward signals to runjob process.
* Changes in SLURM 2.4.0.pre1
=============================
-- BGQ - use the ba_geo_tables to figure out the blocks instead of the old
algorithm. The improves timing in the worst cases and simplifies the code
greatly.
-- BLUEGENE - Change to output tools labels from BP to Midplane
(i.e. BP List -> MidplaneList).
-- BLUEGENE - read MPs and BPs from the bluegene.conf
-- Modify srun's SIGINT handling logic timer (two SIGINTs within one second) to
be based microsecond rather than second timer.
-- Modify advance reservation to accept multiple specific block sizes rather
than a single node count.
-- Permit administrator to change a job's QOS to any value without validating
the job's owner has permission to use that QOS. Based upon patch by Phil
Eckert (LLNL).
-- Add trigger flag for a permanent trigger. The trigger will NOT be purged
after an event occurs, but only when explicitly deleted.
-- Interpret a reservation with Nodes=ALL and a Partition specification as
reserving all nodes within the specified partition rather than all nodes
on the system. Based upon patch by Phil Eckert (LLNL).
-- Add the ability to reboot all compute nodes after they become idle. The
RebootProgram configuration parameter must be set and an authorized user
must execute the command "scontrol reboot_nodes". Patch from Andriy
Grytsenko (Massive Solutions Limited).
-- Modify slurmdbd.conf parsing to accept DebugLevel strings (quiet, fatal,
info, etc.) in addition to numeric values. The parsing of slurm.conf was
modified in the same fashion for SlurmctldDebug and SlurmdDebug values.
The output of sview and "scontrol show config" was also modified to report
those values as strings rather than numeric values.
-- Changed default value of StateSaveLocation configuration parameter from
-- Prevent associations from being deleted if it has any jobs in running,
pending or suspended state. Previous code prevented this only for running
jobs.
-- If a job can not run due to QOS or association limits, then do not cancel
the job, but leave it pending in a system held state (priority = 1). The
job will run when its limits or the QOS/association limits change. Based
upon a patch by Phil Ekcert (LLNL).
-- BGQ - Added logic to keep track of cnodes in an error state inside of a
booted block.
-- Added the ability to update a node's NodeAddr and NodeHostName with
scontrol. Also enable setting a node's state to "future" using scontrol.
-- Add a node state flag of CLOUD and save/restore NodeAddr and NodeHostName
information for nodes with a flag of CLOUD.
-- Cray: Add support for job reservations with node IDs that are not in
numeric order. Fix for Bugzilla #5.
-- Fix association limit support for jobs queued for multiple partitions.
-- BLUEGENE - fix issue for sub-midplane systems to create a full system
block correctly.
-- BLUEGENE - Added option to the bluegene.conf to tell you are running on
a sub midplane system.
-- Added the UserID of the user issuing the RPC to the job_submit/lua
functions.
-- Fixed issue where if a job ended with ESLURMD_UID_NOT_FOUND and
ESLURMD_GID_NOT_FOUND where slurm would be a little over zealous
in treating missing a GID or UID as a fatal error.
-- If job time limit exceeds partition maximum, but job's minimum time limit
does not, set job's time limit to partition maximum at allocation time.
* Changes in SLURM 2.3.6
========================
-- Fix DefMemPerCPU for partition definitions.
-- Fix to create a reservation with licenses and no nodes.
-- Fix issue with assoc_mgr if a bad state file is given and the database
isn't up at the time the slurmctld starts, not running the
priority/multifactor plugin, and then the database is started up later.
-- Gres: If a gres has a count of one and an associated file then when doing
a reconfiguration, the node's bitmap was not cleared resulting in an
underflow upon job termination or removal from scheduling matrix by the
backfill scheduler.
-- Fix race condition in job dependency logic which can result in invalid
memory reference.
* Changes in SLURM 2.3.5
========================
-- Improve support for overlapping advanced reservations. Patch from
Bill Brophy, Bull.
-- Modify Makefiles for support of Debian hardening flags. Patch from
Simon Ruderich.
-- CRAY: Fix support for configuration with SlurmdTimeout=0 (never mark
node that is DOWN in ALPS as DOWN in SLURM).
-- Fixed the setting of SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR for jobs submitted by Moab (BZ#1467).
Patch by Don Lipari, LLNL.
-- Correction to init.d/slurmdbd exit code for status option. Patch by Bill
Brophy, Bull.
-- When the optional max_time is not specified for --switches=count, the site
max (SchedulerParameters=max_switch_wait=seconds) is used for the job.
Based on patch from Rod Schultz.
-- Fix bug in select/cons_res plugin when used with topology/tree and a node
range count in job allocation request.
-- Fixed moab_2_slurmdb.pl script to correctly work for end records.
-- Add support for new SchedulerParameters of max_depend_depth defining the
maximum number of jobs to test for circular dependencies (i.e. job A waits
for job B to start and job B waits for job A to start). Default value is
10 jobs.
-- Fix potential race condition if MinJobAge is very low (i.e. 1) and using
slurmdbd accounting and running large amounts of jobs (>50 sec). Job
information could be corrupted before it had a chance to reach the DBD.
-- Fix state restore of job limit set from admin value for min_cpus.
-- Fix clearing of limit values if an admin removes the limit for max cpus
and time limit where it was previously set by an admin.
-- Fix issue where log message is more than 256 chars and then has a format.
-- Fix sched/wiki2 to support job account name, gres, partition name, wckey,
or working directory that contains "#" (a job record separator). Also fix
for wckey or working directory that contains a double quote '\"'.

relative option. Work by Matthieu Hautreux (CEA).
-- Reset priority of system held jobs when dependency is satisfied. Work by
Don Lipari, LLNL.

option and --nnodes count small enough to remove more nodes. Patch from
Phil Eckert, LLNL.
-- Work around to handle certain combinations of glibc/kernel
(i.e. glibc-2.14/Linux-3.1) to correctly open the pty of the slurmstepd
as the job user. Patch from Mark Grondona, LLNL.

"liblua5.1.so" as needed by Debian. Patch by Remi Palancher.
-- Added partition default_time field to job_submit LUA plugin. Patch by
Remi Palancher.
-- Fix bug in cray/srun wrapper stdin/out/err file handling.
-- In cray/srun wrapper, only include aprun "-q" option when srun "--quiet"
option is used.

the queue when trying to place a larger than midplane job.
-- CRAY - ignore all interactive nodes and jobs on interactive nodes.
-- Add new job state reason of "FrontEndDown" which applies only to Cray and
IBM BlueGene systems.
-- Cray - Enable configure option of "--enable-salloc-background" to permit
the srun and salloc commands to be executed in the background. This does
NOT remove the ALPS limitation that only one job reservation can be created
for each Linux session ID.
-- Cray - For srun wrapper when creating a job allocation, set the default job
name to the executable file's name.
-- FRONTEND - if a front end unexpectedly reboots kill all jobs but don't
mark front end node down.
-- FRONTEND - don't down a front end node if you have an epilog error.
