SimGrid (3.5) unstable; urgency=low
+ Checked up to svn r7858 (Mt)
+
MSG
+ * Asynchronous communications through the functions:
+ MSG_task_isend/irecv and MSG_comm_test/wait
* New function: MSG_load_platform_script()
to make possible using a lua script instead of XML files to set up platforms
* New function: MSG_set_function
to associate functions to processes, used when bypassing the parser
LUA Bindings
- * Add layer to set up environment and bypass the XML surf parser
+ * Add layer to set up environment directly from lua, without XML
* Modify the entry point, to take into consideration when lua is used only as a platform generator
SURF
* Change the XML format. This is a very important modification. SimGrid
3.5 introduces a new hierarchical format based on the notion of
Autonomous Systems. Compatibility with old format is ensured
- through the perl script provided in the contrib section of the
- svn. [PIERRE GIVE THE PATH]
+ through the perl script provided in the install bin directory
+ bin/simgrid_update_xml.pl.
It is now possible to build platforms with specific routing
mechanism (Full/Dijkstra/DijkstraCache/Floyd) and to easily
connect several platforms together. We will try to provide soon
* new function SD_dotload(char*) to load a DAG described in dot
format. This loader and the corresponding examples require the
installation of the graphviz library.
+ * new function SD_workstation_get_current_task()
XBT
* New data container: setset (set of sets of elements)
- * New module: mmalloc (mapped malloc)
+ * New module: mmalloc (mapped malloc, allowing to have several
+ independent segments of malloc)
* New function: xbt_dict_cursor_set_data()
* New function: xbt_dynar_sort()
* New function: xbt_dynar_is_empty()
GRAS:
* New function: gras_msgtype_get_name()
+ * Implement gras_agent_spawn in RL too (the prototype changed a bit)
+ * Kill measurement sockets for now. If you rely on them, sorry. This
+ release is not for you. This feature will be reintroduced in the
+ future, but we cannot delay the release any further.
+
+ SMPI
+ * New Model SMPI (three-interval linear regression for correction factors)
- Build chain: bug fixes and further polishing
+ Build chain: bug fixes and overall polishing
* Fix the 'make install' target.
No need to use 'make install-simgrid' anymore
* Introduce a 'make dist' target compiling a *source* archive
- 'make package' compiles a binary archive (not well tested)
+ 'make package' compiles a binary archive
* Compile java files only on need
+ * Add --cd and --setenv command line options to tesh
+ * Port to windows
Tracing:
* Tracing system
with modifications regarding the fullduplex mode
- new tesh files to check if gtnets tracing is ok
+ * New feature to any SimGrid-based simulator: Model-Checking
+ Check SIN#1 for more details.
