SimGrid (3.19) NOT RELEASED YET (target: March 20 2018, 16:15:27 UTC)
+ MSG
+ - Fix MSG_task_get_remaining_work_ratio() to return 1.0 for tasks that have
+ not started.
+
S4U
- Execution->setHost() can be called after start() to migrate it.
+ - Comm::test_any() is now implemented.
+ - s4u::Actor now has an onCreation() signal.
+
+ XBT
+ - Remove XBT_LOG_CONNECT, it should be useless nowadays.
+
+ SMPI
+ - Removed index notion from SMPI -- no more "getPid() - 1"!
+ This also means that the trace files
+ now contain actors called rank-<PROCESS-ID>. These are NOT the real
+ ranks, because tracing several communicators right now is not supported.
+ - Because of this, smpi_process_index() has now been deprecated and will
+ be removed in 3.21
+
+ Fixed bugs:
+ - #245: migrating an actor does not migrate its execution

S4U New features
- s4u::onDeadlock() signal, run before stopping the simulation.
- s4u::Exec: asynchronous executions (abstraction of background
Mailbox::getCname() instead to get a char*.
- Storage::getName() changed to return a std::string, use
Storage::getCname() instead to get a char*.
- - s4u::allStorages() becomes s4u::getStorageList(whereTo)
+ - s4u::allStorages() becomes s4u::getStorageList(whereTo)
to have both allocation and deallocation of the map in user space.
MSG
- Both changes fix GitHub's #223 using PR #237 as a basis.
Thanks Michael Mercier.
- Most examples were converted to S4U and hidden elsewhere at tests.
- Rational: we still want MSG to work; we want newcomers to use S4U.

SURF
- LMM stuff moved to its own namespace: simgrid::kernel::lmm.
- Live migration is getting moved to a plugin. Dirty page tracking is
the first part of this plugin. This imply that VM migration is now
only possible if one this function is called :

+ - C/MSG: MSG_vm_live_migration_plugin_init()
- C/C++: sg_vm_live_migration_plugin_init()
- Java: Msg.liveMigrationInit()
- For C and C++, "simgrid/plugins/live_migration.h" also has to be
