SimGrid (3.14) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
+ Documentation
+ * The whole documentation was reworked and reorganized. There is
+ still much room for improvement here, but we're on it.
+
+ Infrastructure
+ * We now need python3 for our testing infrastructure.
+
SMPI
+ * Privatization is now activated by default in smpirun
+ You can turn it off with -no-privatize if something goes wrong.
+
* Call-location tracing for SMPI.
You can add the exact location (filename / linenumber) of an MPI call to
your trace files and slow down or speed up the simulation between two
- consecutive calls by using an adjustment file. (See the documentation.)
+ consecutive calls by using an adjustment file (see the documentation).
- * Fixed computation of timings for MPI_Send, MPI_Recv but possibly also others
+ * Fixed computation of timings for MPI_Send, MPI_Recv & possibly also others
We've found a bug that prevented SMPI to account for MPI_Send, MPI_Recv
and others (in some cases) in a correct way. That is, the smpi/os, smpi/or
values were ignored in some cases. The timings of these functions can now
be significantly different.
- MSG
+ * smpi/cpu-threshold:-1 should become smpi/simulate-computation:no
+ smpi/running-power is renamed to smpi/host-speed
+
+ Dropped functions and features
* msg_mailbox_t and associated functions. Use s4u::Mailbox instead.
- MSG_mailbox_is_empty() -> Mailbox::empty()
- MSG_mailbox_front() -> Mailbox::front()
- MSG_mailbox_get_by_alias() -> simgrid::s4u::Mailbox::byName(name)
- MSG_mailbox_get_task_ext() -> MSG_task_receive_ext()
- MSG_mailbox_get_task_ext_bounded -> MSG_task_receive_ext_bounded
+ * Task affinity. Its intended behavior (that was very badly tested
+ and probably not really working) was deceiving what most users
+ would have hoped here.
+ * xbt_os_sem_get_value: unused internally, deprecated on OS X El Capitan
XML:
* Add Exa- and Peta- units such as EiB, EB, Eib, Eb for size, and
EiBps, EBps, Eibps, Ebps for bandwidth.
They may become useful to some lucky ones.
+
+ Java:
+ * New functions: msg.Comm.waitAll() and msg.Comm.waitAny()
+ * ex/app_tokenring: new example, very similar to the MSG Token Ring
+ * ex/async_waitAll: new example, on asynchronous communications
