    distributing large rlimit to jobs.

========================
 -- The srun command wakes immeditely upon resource allocation (via new RPC)
    rather than polling.
 -- SLURM daemons log current version number at startup.
 -- If slurmd can't respond to ping (e.g. paging is keeping it from 
    responding in a timely fashion) then send a registration RPC
    to slurmctld.

    shell when using --allocate, -A.
 -- Modify  srun --uid=user and --gid=group options to maintain invoking 
    user's credentials until after nodes have been allocated to requested 
    user/group (allows root to run jobs and allocate nodes for other users 
    in a RootOnly partition).
 -- Fix node processing if state change requested via scontrol prior to 
    initial node registration.
 
* Changes in SLURM 0.3.0
========================
 -- Support for AIX added (a few bugs do remain).
 -- Fix memory leak in slurmctld, slurm_cred_create().
 -- On ELF systems, export BNR_* functions from SLURM API. 
 -- Add support for "hidden" partitions (applies to their 
    nodes, jobs, and job steps as well). APIs and commands 
    modified to optionally display hidden partitions.
 -- Modify partition's group_allow test to be based upon the user 
    of the allocation rather than the user making the allocation 
    request (user root for LCRM batch jobs).
 -- Restructure plugin directory structure.
 -- New --core=type option in srun for lightweight corefile support.
    (requires liblwcf).
 -- Let user root and SlurmUser exceed any partition limits.

    slurm.conf pathname).
 -- Remove slurmd "-f" option.
 -- Several documenation changes for slurm administrators.
 -- On ELF systems, export only slurm_* functions from slurm API and 
    ensure plugins use only slurm_ prefixed functions (created aliases
    where necessary).
 -- New srun option -Q, --quiet to suppress informational messages.
 -- Fix bug in slurmctld's building of nodelist for job (failed if 
    more than one numeric field in node name).
 -- Change "scontrol completing" and "sinfo" to use job's node bitmap
    to identify nodes associated with that particular job that are 
    still processing job completion. This will work properly for 
    shared nodes.
 -- Set SLURM_DISTRIBUTION environment varible for user tasks.
 -- Fix for file descriptor leak in slurmd.
 -- Propagate stacksize limit to jobs along with other resource limits
    that were previously ignored.

    scalability.
 -- New sinfo option "--list-reason" or "-R". Displays down or drained 
    nodes along with their REASON field.

* Changes in SLURM 0.3.0.0-pre8
===============================
 -- Queue outgoing message traffic rather than immediately spawning 
    pthreads (under heavy load this resulted in hundreds of pthreads 
    using more memory than was available).
 -- Restructure slurmctld message agent for higher throughput.
 -- Add new sinfo options --responding and --dead (i.e. non-responding)
    for filtering node states.

   - slurm/387: Jobs lost and nodes DOWN on slurmctld restart.
 -- Add support for getting node's real memory size on AIX.
 -- Sinfo sort partitions in slurm.conf order, new sort option ("#P").
 -- Document how to gracefully change plugin values.
 -- Slurmctld does not attempt to recover jobs when the switch plugin
    value changes (decision reached when any job's switch state recovery
    fails).
 -- Node does not transition from COMPLETING to DOWN state due to
    not responding. Wait for tasks to complete or admin to set DOWN.
 -- Always chmod SlurmdSpoolDir to 755 (a umask of 007 was resulting 
    in batch jobs failing).
 -- Return errors when trying to change configuration parameters
    AuthType, SchedulerType, and SwitchType via "scontrol reconfig"
    or SIGHUP. Document how to safely change these parameters.
 -- Plugin-specific error number definitions and descriptive strings 
    moved from common into plugin modules.
 -- Documentation for writing scheduler, switch, and job completion 
    logging plugins added.
 -- Added job and node state descriptions to the squeue and sinfo man pages.
 -- Backup slurmctld to generate core file on SIGABRT.
 -- Backup slurmctld to re-read slurm.conf on SIGHUP.
 -- Added -q,--quit-on-interrupt option to srun.
 -- Elan switch plugin now starts neterr resolver thread on all Elan3
    systems (QsNet and QsNetII).
 -- Added some missing read locks for references for slurmctld's 
    configuration data structure
 -- Modify processing of queued slurmctld message traffic to get better
    throughput (resulted in job inactivity limit being reached improperly 
    when hundreds of jobs running simultaneously)

* Changes in SLURM 0.3.0.0-pre6
===============================
 -- Fixes for reported problems:
   - slurm/372: job state descriptions added to squeue man page

    to ignore SIGTERM)
 -- Sinfo "--exact" option only applies to fields actually displayed
 -- Partition processor count not correctly computed for heterogeneous 
    clusters with FastSchedule=0 configuration
 -- Only return DOWN nodes to service if the reason for them being in 
    that state is non-responsiveness and "ReturnToService=1" configuration
 -- Partition processor count now correctly computed for heterogeneous 
    clusters with FastSchedule configured off
 -- New macros and function to export SLURM version number

     losing track of jobs
   - slurm/329: Job processing may be left running when one task dies
   - slurm/333: Slurmd fails to launch a job and deletes a step, due to 
     a race condition in shared memory management
   - slurm/334: Slurmd was getting a segv due to a race condition in shared 
     memory management
   - slurm/342: Properly handle nodes being removed from configuration

    is requested.

* Changes in SLURM 0.2.21
=========================
 -- Fixes for reported problems:
   - slurm/253: Try using different port if connect() fails (was rarely 
     failing when an existing defunct connection was in TIME_WAIT state)

   - slurm/312: Freeing non-allocated memory and killing slurmd
 -- Assorted changes to support RedHat Enterprise Linux 3.0 and IA64
 -- Initial Elan4 and libelanctrl support (--with-elan).

    job when a running job completes)
 -- Convert all user commands from use of popt library to getopt_long()
 -- If TotalView support is requested, srun exports "totalview_jobid"
    variable for `%J' expansion in TV bulk launch string.

   - slurm/299: srun fails to exit with multiple ^C's.

   - slurm/287: slurm protocol timeouts when using TotalView.
   - slurm/291: srun fails using ``-n 1'' under multi-node allocation.
   - slurm/294: srun IO buffer reports ENOSPC.

    jobs complete
 -- Do not schedule pending jobs while any job is actively COMPLETING 
    unless the submitted job specifically identifies its nodes (like DPCS)
 -- Reset priority of jobs with priority==1 when a non-responding node 
    starts to respond again
 -- Ignore jobs with priority==1 when establishing new baseline upon 
    slurmctld restart

    to avoid resurrecting defunct jobs.
 -- Kill jobs on non-responding DRAINING nodes and make their state

    them unless detailed debugging is requested.
 -- Increase number of concurrent controller server threads from 20 
    to 50 and restructure code to handle backlogs more efficiently.

    rather than previously saved state. Additional improvements to 
    avoid inconsistent job/node/partition states at restart. Job state 
    information is used to arbitrate conflicts.
 -- Orphaned file descriptors eliminated.

* Changes in SLURM 0.2.16
=========================
 -- Fixes for reported problems:
   - slurm/265: Early termination of srun could cause job to remain in queue.
   - slurm/268: Slurmctld could deadlock if there was a delay in the

     added so that slurmd could notify slurmctld whenever the job 
     termination was completed.
   - slurm/270: Segfault in sinfo if a configured node lacked a partition.

 -- SLURM_NODELIST environment variable now exported to all jobs, not
    only batch jobs.
 -- Nodelist displayed in squeue for completing jobs is now restricted to 
    completing nodes.
 -- Node "reason" field properly displayed in sinfo even with filtering.

    node zero at node registration.
 -- Default RPMs no longer stop/start SLURM daemons on upgrade or install.

* Changes in SLURM 0.2.13
=========================
 -- Fixes for reported problems:

 -- Addition of new daemon "slurm_tv_clean" used to clean up jobs orphaned
    due to use of the TotalView parallel debugger.
