One of our testers discovered a regression in version 2.3.1.  If a job is
pending due to PartitionNodeLimit and the limit is relieved with a
'sacctmgr modify qos name=<qos name> set flags=partitionmaxnodes' new jobs
exceeding the partition limit (but not the QOS limit) are allowed to run.
However, the pending job is never allowed to run.  Attached is a patch to
address this problem.  FYI, this problem doesn't exist in version 2.4.

There was also some bad code that would reset the conn_type of a block
to SMALL no matter what type of SMALL it was.

This was due to a bug in select/cons_res with some configuration
optiions and job options, especially if there is more than one
thread per core and the job option includes "--threads-per-core=1".
Fixes problem reported by CSCS.

qos on the cluster to fill that in correctly.

incorrectly when getting fairshare from the parent.

wasn't started at the time the eligible message was sent but started
before the db_index was returned information like start time would be lost.

Note this is an old bug. The new code keeps slurmstepd alive and it
keeps trying to send step completion message to slurmctld.

This make the same patch to select/linear as Carles Fenoy's patch to
select/cons_res plugin.

Backfill scheduling - Add SchedulerParameters configuration parameter of
"bf_res" to control the resolution in the backfill scheduler's data about
when jobs begin and end. Default value is 60 seconds (used to be 1 second).

Do not drain the compute or front-end node when trying to start a job
for which the UID is not found

Add configure option of "--without-rpath" which builds SLURM tools without
the rpath option, which will work if Munge and BlueGene libraries are in
the default library search path and make system updates easier.

Do not attempt to run HeathCheckProgram on powered down nodes. Patch from
Ramiro Alba, Centre Tecnològic de Tranferència de Calor, Spain.

Report correct job "Reason" if needed nodes are DOWN, DRAINED, or
NOT_RESPONDING, "Resources" rather than "PartitionNodeLimit".

Cray - Fix for srun.pl parsing to avoid adding spaces between option and
argument (e.g. "-N2" parsed properly without changing to "-N 2").

Prevent job hold by operator or account coordinator of his own job from
being an Administrator Hold rather than User Hold by default.

Prevent slurmctld crashing with divide by zero with a configuration of MaxMemPerCPU=0.
