-- jobcomp/filetxt - Add ArrayJobId, ArrayTaskId, ReservationName, Gres,
Account, QOS, WcKey, Cluster, SubmitTime, EligibleTime, DerivedExitCode and
ExitCode.
-- scontrol modified to report core IDs for reservation containing individual
cores.
-- MYSQL - Get rid of table join during rollup which speeds up the process
dramatically on large job/step tables.
-- Add ability to define features on clusters for directing federated jobs to
different clusters.
-- Add new RPC to process multiple federation RPCs in a single communication.
-- Modify slurm_load_jobs() function to load job information from all clusters
in a federation.
-- Add squeue --local and --sibling options to modify filtering of jobs on
federated clusters.
-- Add SchedulerParameters option of bf_max_job_user_part to specifiy the
maximum number of jobs per user for any single partition. This differs from
bf_max_job_user in that a separate counter is applied to each partition
rather than having a single counter per user applied to all partitions.
-- Modify backfill logic so that bf_max_job_user, bf_max_job_part and
bf_max_job_user_part options can all be used independently of each other.
-- Add sprio -p/--partition option to filter jobs by partition name.
-- Add partition name to job priority factor response message.
-- Add sprio --local and --sibling options for use in federation of clusters.
-- Add sprio "%c" format to print cluster name in federation mode.
-- Modify sinfo logic to provided unified view of all nodes and partitions
in a federation, add --local option to only report local state information
even in a cluster, print cluster name with "%V" format option, and
optionally sort by cluster name.
-- If a task in a parallel job fails and it was launched with the
--kill-on-bad-exit option then terminate the remaining tasks using the
SIGCONT, SIGTERM and SIGKILL signals rather than just sending SIGKILL.
-- Include submit_time when doing the sort for job scheduling.
-- Modify sacct to report all jobs in federation by default. Also add --local
option.
-- Modify sacct to accept "--cluster all" option (in addition to the old
"--cluster -1", which is still accepted).
-- Modify sreport to report all jobs in federation by default. Also add --local
option.
-- sched/backfill: Improve assoc_limit_stop configuration parameter support.
-- KNL features: Always keep active and available features in the same order:
first site-specific features, next MCDRAM modes, last NUMA modes.
-- Changed default ProctrackType to cgroup.
-- Add "cluster_name" field to node_info_t and partition_info_t data structure.
It is filled in only when the cluster is part of a federation and
SHOW_FEDERATION flag used.
-- Functions slurm_load_node() slurm_load_partitions() modified to show all
nodes/partitions in a federation when the SHOW_FEDERATION flag is used.
-- Add --federation option to sacct, scontrol, sinfo, sprio, squeue, sreport to
show a federated view. Will show local view by default.

commands to display a federated view by default if the cluster is a member
of a federation.

-- Report that "CPUs" plus "Boards" in node configuration invalid only if the
CPUs value is not equal to the total thread count.
-- Extend the output of the seff utility to also include the job's wall-clock
time.
-- Add bf_max_time to SchedulerParameters.
-- Add bf_max_job_assoc to SchedulerParameters.
-- Add new SchedulerParameters option bf_window_linear to control the rate at
which the backfill test window expands. This can be used on a system with
a modest number of running jobs (hundreds of jobs) to help prevent expected
start times of pending jobs to get pushed forward in time. On systems with
large numbers of running jobs, performance of the backfill scheduler will
suffer and fewer jobs will be evaluated.
-- Improve scheduling logic with respect to license use and node reboots.
-- CRAY - Alter algorithm to come up with the SLURM_ID_HASH.
-- Implement federated scheduling and federated status outputs.
-- The '-q' option to srun has changed from being the short form of
'--quit-on-interrupt' to '--qos'.

-- Task/cray: Treat missing "mems" cgroup with "debug" messages rather than
"error" messages. The file may be missing at step termination due to a
change in how cgroups are released at job/step end.
-- Fix for job constraint specification with counts, --ntasks-per-node value,
and no node count.
-- Fix ordering of step task allocation to fill in a socket before going into
another one.

job_pend_cnt and job_run_cnt.
-- Prevent job_time_limit enforcement from blocking other internal operations
if a large number of jobs need to be cancelled.
-- Add 'preempt_youngest_order' option to preempt/partition_prio plugin.
-- Fix controller being able to talk to a pre-released DBD.
-- Added ability to override the invoking uid for "scontrol update job"
by specifying "--uid=<uid>|-u <uid>".

over 2 GB.
-- slurm.spec - do not install init scripts alongside systemd service files.
Alejandro Sanchez
committed
-- Add port info to 'sinfo' and 'scontrol show node'.
-- Fix errant definition of USE_64BIT_BITSTR which can lead to core dumps.
-- Move BatchScript to end of each job's information when using
"scontrol -dd show job" to make it more readable.
-- Add SchedulerParameters configuration parameter of "default_gbytes", which
treats numeric only (no suffix) value for memory and tmp disk space as being
in units of Gigabytes. Mostly for compatability with LSF.
-- Fix race condtion in srun/sattach logic which would prevent srun from
terminating.
-- Bitstring operations are now 64bit instead of 32bit.
-- Replace hweight() function in bitstring with faster version.
-- scancel would treat a non-numeric argument as the name of jobs to be
cancelled (a non-documented feature). Cancelling jobs by name now require
the "--jobname=" command line argument.
-- scancel modified to note that no jobs satisfy the filter options when the
--verbose option is used along with one or more job filters (e.g. "--qos=").
-- Change _pack_cred to use pack_bit_str_hex instead of pack_bit_fmt for
better scalability and performance.
-- Add BootTime configuration parameter to knl.conf file to optimize resource
allocations with respect to required node reboots.
-- Add node_features_p_boot_time() to node_features plugin to optimize
scheduling with respect to node reboots.
-- Avoid allocating resources to a job in the event that its run time plus boot
time (if needed) extent into an advanced reservation.
-- Burst_buffer/cray - Avoid stage-out operation if job never started.
-- node_features/knl_cray - Add capability to detected Uncorrectable Memory
Errors (UME) and if detected then log the event in all job and step stderr
with a message of the form:
error: *** STEP 1.2 ON tux1 UNCORRECTABLE MEMORY ERROR AT 2016-12-14T09:09:37 ***
Similar logic added to node_features/knl_generic in version 17.02.0pre4.
-- If job is allocated nodes which are powered down, then reset job start time
when the nodes are ready and do not charge the job for power up time.
-- Add the ability to purge transactions from the database.
-- Add support for requeue'ing of federated jobs (BETA).
-- Add support for interactive federated jobs (BETA).
-- Add the ability to purge rolled up usage from the database.
-- Properly set SLURM_JOB_GPUS environment variable for Prolog.
* Changes in Slurm 17.02.0pre4
==============================
-- Add support for per-partitiion OverTimeLimit configuration.
-- Add --mem_bind option of "sort" to run zonesort on KNL nodes at step start.
-- Add LaunchParameters=mem_sort option to configure running of zonesort
-- Add "FreeSpace" information for each pool to the "scontrol show burstbuffer"
output. Required changes to the burst_buffer_info_t data structure.
-- Add new node state flag of NODE_STATE_REBOOT for node reboots triggered by
"scontrol reboot" commands. Previous logic re-used NODE_STATE_MAINT flag,
which could lead to inconsistencies. Add "ASAP" option to "scontrol reboot"
command that will drain a node in order to reboot it as soon as possible,
then return it to service.
-- Allow unit conversion routine to convert 1024M to 1G.
-- switch/cray plugin - change legacy spool directory location.
-- Add new PriorityFlags option of INCR_ONLY, which prevents a job's priority
from being decremented.
-- Make it so we don't purge job start messages until after we purge step
messages. Hopefully this will reduce the number of messages lost when
filling up memory when the database/DBD is down.
-- Added SchedulingParameters option of "bf_job_part_count_reserve". Jobs below
the specified threshold will not have resources reserved for them.
-- If GRES are configured with file IDs, then "scontrol -d show node" will
not only identify the count of currently allocated GRES, but their specific
index numbers (e.g. "GresUsed=gpu:alpha:2(IDX:0,2),gpu:beta:0(IDX:N/A)").
Ditto for job information with "scontrol -d show job".
-- Add "GresEnforceBind=Yes" to "scontrol show job" output if so configured.
-- Add support for SALLOC_CONSTRAINT, SBATCH_CONSTRAINT and SLURM_CONSTRAINT
environment variables to set default constraints for salloc, sbatch and
srun commands respectively.
-- Provide limited support for the MemSpecLimit configuration parameter without
the task/cgroup plugin.
-- node_features/knl_generic - Add capability to detected Uncorrectable Memory
Errors (UME) and if detected then log the event in all job and step stderr
with a message of the form:
error: *** STEP 1.2 ON tux1 UNCORRECTABLE MEMORY ERROR AT 2016-12-14T09:09:37 ***
-- Add SLURM_JOB_GID to TaskProlog environment.
-- burst_buffer/cray - Remove leading zeros from node ID lists passed to
dw_wlm_cli program.
-- Add "Partitions" field to "scontrol show node" output.
-- Remove sched/wiki and sched/wiki2 plugins and associated code.
-- Remove SchedulerRootFilter option and slurm_get_root_filter() API call.
-- Add SchedulerParameters option of spec_cores_first to select specialized
cores from the lowest rather than highest number cores and sockets.
-- Add PrologFlags option of Serial to disable concurrent launch of
Prolog and Epilog scripts.
-- Fix security issue caused by insecure file path handling triggered by the
failure of a Prolog script. To exploit this a user needs to anticipate or
cause the Prolog to fail for their job. CVE-2016-10030.
* Changes in Slurm 17.02.0pre3
==============================
-- Add srun host & PID to job step data structures.
-- Avoid creating duplicate pending step records for the same srun command.
-- Rewrite srun's logic for pending steps for better efficiency (fewer RPCs).
-- Added new SchedulerParameters options step_retry_count and step_retry_time
to control scheduling behaviour of job steps waiting for resources.
-- Optimize resource allocation logic for --spread-job job option.
-- Modify cpu_bind and mem_bind map and mask options to accept a repetition
count to better support large task count. For example:
"mask_mem:0x0f*2,0xf0*2" is equivalent to "mask_mem:0x0f,0x0f,0xf0,0xf0".
-- Add support for --mem_bind=prefer option to prefer, but not restrict memory
-- Add mechanism to constrain kernel memory allocation using cgroups. New
cgroup.conf parameters added: ConstrainKmemSpace, MaxKmemPercent, and
MinKmemSpace.
-- Correct invokation of man2html, which previously could cause FreeBSD builds
to hang.
-- MYSQL - Unconditionally remove 'ignore' clause from 'alter ignore'.
-- Modify service files to not start Slurm daemons until after Munge has been
started.
NOTE: If you are not using Munge, but are using the "service" scripts to
start Slurm daemons, then you will need to remove this check from the
etc/slurm*service scripts.
-- Do not process SALLOC_HINT, SBATCH_HINT or SLURM_HINT environment variables
if any of the following salloc, sbatch or srun command line options are
specified: -B, --cpu_bind, --hint, --ntasks-per-core, or --threads-per-core.
-- burst_buffer/cray: Accept new jobs on backup slurmctld daemon without access
to dw_wlm_cli command. No burst buffer actions will take place.
-- Do not include SLURM_JOB_DERIVED_EC, SLURM_JOB_EXIT_CODE, or
SLURM_JOB_EXIT_CODE in PrologSlurmctld environment (not available yet).
-- Cray - set task plugin to fatal() if task/cgroup is not loaded after
task/cray in the TaskPlugin settings.
-- Remove separate slurm_blcr package. If Slurm is built with BLCR support,
the files will now be part of the main Slurm packages.
-- Replace sjstat, seff and sjobexit RPM packages with a single "contribs"
package.
-- Remove long since defunct slurmdb-direct scripts.
-- Add SbcastParameters configuration option to control default file
destination directory and compression algorithm.
-- Add new SchedulerParameter (max_array_tasks) to limit the maximum number of
tasks in a job array independently from the maximum task ID (MaxArraySize).
Alejandro Sanchez
committed
-- Fix issue where number of nodes is not properly allocated when sbatch and
salloc are requested with -n tasks < hosts from -w hostlist or from -N.
* Changes in Slurm 17.02.0pre2
==============================
-- Add new RPC (REQUEST_EVENT_LOG) so that slurmd and slurmstepd can log events
through the slurmctld daemon.
-- Remove sbatch --bb option. That option was never supported.
-- Automatically clean up task/cgroup cpuset and devices cgroups after steps
are completed.
-- Add federation read/write locks.
-- Limit job purge run time to 1 second at a time.
-- The database index for jobs is now 64 bits. If you happen to be close to
4 billion jobs in your database you will want to update your slurmctld at
the same time as your slurmdbd to prevent roll over of this variable as
it is 32 bit previous versions of Slurm.
-- Optionally lock slurmstepd in memory for performance reasons and to avoid
possible SIGBUS if the daemon is paged out at the time of a Slurm upgrade
(changing plugins). Controlled via new LaunchParameters options of
slurmstepd_memlock and slurmstepd_memlock_all.
-- Add event trigger on burst buffer errors (see strigger man page,
--burst_buffer option).
-- Add job AdminComment field which can only be set by a Slurm administrator.
-- Add salloc, sbatch and srun option of --delay-boot=<time>, which will
temporarily delay booting nodes into the desired state for a job in the
hope of using nodes already in the proper state which will be available at
a later time.
-- Add job burst_buffer_state and delay_boot fields to scontrol and squeue
output. Also add ability to modify delay_boot from scontrol.
-- Fix for node's available TRES array getting filled in with configured GRES
-- Log if job --bb option contains any unrecognized content.
-- Display configured and allocated TRES for nodes in scontrol show nodes.
-- Change all memory values (in MB) to uint64_t to accommodate > 2TB per node.
-- Add MailDomain configuration parameter to qualify email addresses.
-- Refactor the persistent connections within the federation code to use
the same logic that was found in the slurmdbd. Now both functionalities
share the same code.
-- Remove BlueGene/L and BlueGene/P support.
-- Add "flag" field to launch_tasks_request_msg. Remove the following fields
(moved into flags): multi_prog, task_flags, user_managed_io, pty,
buffered_stdio, and labelio.
-- Add protocol version to slurmd startup communications for slurmstepd to
permit changes in the protocol.
* Changes in Slurm 17.02.0pre1
==============================
-- burst_buffer/cray - Add support for rounding up the size of a buffer reqeust
if the DataWarp configuration "equalize_fragments" is used.
-- Rename "in" to "input" in slurm_step_io_fds data structure defined in
slurm.h. This is needed to avoid breaking Python with by using one of its
keywords in a Slurm data structure.
-- Remove eligible_time from jobcomp/elasticsearch.
-- Enable the deletion of a QOS, even if no clusters have been added to the
database.
-- SlurmDBD - change all timestamps to bigint from int to solve Y2038 problem.
-- Add salloc/sbatch/srun --spread-job option to distribute tasks over as many
nodes as possible. This also treats the --ntasks-per-node option as a
maximum value.
-- Add ConstrainKmemSpace to cgroup.conf, defaulting to yes, to allow
cgroup Kmem enforcement to be disabled while still using ConstrainRAMSpace.
-- Add support for sbatch --bbf option to specify a burst buffer input file.
-- Added burst buffer support for job arrays. Add new SchedulerParameters
configuration parameter of bb_array_stage_cnt=# to indicate how many pending
tasks of a job array should be made available for burst buffer resource
allocation.
-- Fix small memory leak when a job fails to load from state save.
-- Fix invalid read when attempting to delete clusters from database with
running jobs.
-- Fix small memory leak when deleting clusters from database.
-- Add SLURM_ARRAY_TASK_COUNT environment variable. Total number of tasks in a
job array (e.g. "--array=2,4,8" will set SLURM_ARRAY_TASK_COUNT=3).
-- Add new sacctmgr commands: "shutdown" (shutdown the server), "list stats"
(get server statistics) "clear stats" (clear server statistics).
Tim Wickberg
committed
-- Restructure job accounting query to use 'id_job in (1, 2, .. )' format
instead of logically equivalent 'id_job = 1 || id_job = 2 || ..' .
-- Added start_delay field to jobcomp/elasticsearch.
-- In order to support federated jobs, the MaxJobID configuration parameter
default value has been reduced from 2,147,418,112 to 67,043,328 and its
maximum value is now 67,108,863. Upon upgrading, any pre-existing jobs that
have a job ID above the new range will continue to run and new jobs will get
job IDs in the new range.
-- Added infrastructure for setting up federations in database and establishing
connections between federation clusters.
* Changes in Slurm 16.05.12
===========================
* Changes in Slurm 16.05.11
===========================
-- burst_buffer/cray - Add support for line continuation.
-- If a job is cancelled by the user while it's allocated nodes are being
reconfigured (i.e. the capmc_resume program is rebooting nodes for the job)
and the node reconfiguration fails (i.e. the reboot fails), then don't
requeue the job but leave it in a cancelled state.
-- capmc_resume (Cray resume node script) - Do not disable changing a node's
active features if SyscfgPath is configured in the knl.conf file.
-- Fix memory error when updating a job's licenses.
-- Fix double read lock of tres when updating gres or licenses on a job.
-- Fix regression in 16.05.10 with respects to GrpTresMins on a QOS or
Association.
-- ALPS - Fix scheduling when ALPS doesn't agree with Slurm on what nodes
are free.
-- Fix seg fault if loading attempting to load non-existent burstbuffer plugin.
-- Fix to backfill scheduling with respect to QOS and association limits. Jobs
submitted to multiple partitions are most likley to be effected.
-- Avoid erroneous errno set by the mariadb 10.2 api.
-- Fix security issue in Prolog and Epilog by always prepending SPANK_ to
all user-set environment variables. CVE-2017-15566.

-- cray/busrt_buffer - Fix for double counting of used_space at slurmctld
startup.
-- Fix regression in 16.05.6 where if you request multiple cpus per task (-c2)
and request --ntasks-per-core=1 and only 1 task on the node
the slurmd would abort on an infinite loop fatal.
-- cray/busrt_buffer - Internally track both allocated and unusable space.
The reported UsedSpace in a pool is now the allocated space (previously was
unusable space). Base available space on whichever value leaves least free
space.
-- cray/burst_buffer - Preserve job ID and don't translate to job array ID.
