* Our own implementation of getline is renamed xbt_getline, and gets
used even if the OS provide a getline(). This should reduce the
configuration complexity by using the same code on all platforms.
+ * new xbt_cfg_elm_boolean type
Java:
* Reintegrate Java to the main archive as desynchronizing these
package is not acceptable anymore (Java is now considered stable)
+ * Add explicit synchronization facilities through semaphores
* Bugfix: Task.setDataSize() only changed the C world, not the value
cached in the Java world
+ MSG:
+ * Dramatically change the way files are handled. API and internals changed, but
+ this part of MSG was not considered as production grade either.
+ * Add explicit synchronization facilities through semaphores
+ * Add a new function MSG_host_get_process_list()
+
SMPI:
- * SMPI is not built as a separate library anymore, it's now included in
- libsimgrid.
+ * SMPI is now included directly in the libsimgrid as the windows
+ linker dont forces us on splitting it anymore.
* Improvements of the SMPI replay tool:
- Most of the collective communications are now rooted in the same process as
in the original application.
- The replay tool now supports traces produce either by TAU or a modified
version of MPE.
- Bug Fix: the compute part of the reduce action is now taken into account.
+ * smpirun generates the hostfile if needed (with given hostcount and platform)
+ * Integration of more than 100 STAR-MPI, mpich, OpenMPI collective algorithms
+ - allows to select one in particular with --cfg=smpi/coll_name:algorithm
+ - allows to use the decision logic of OpenMPI(1.7) or MPICH(3.0.4) by setting
+ --cfg=smpi/coll_selector:(mpich/ompi)
+ * Support for new functions : MPI_Issend, MPI_Ssend, Commutative operations in
+ Reduce
+ * Add a --cfg:tracing/smpi/internals option, to trace internal communications
+ happening inside a collective SMPI call.
+ * Fix the behavior of complex datatypes handling
+ * replace MPICH-1 test suite by the one from MPICH 3.0.4
+ * Add all missing Fortran bindings, SMPI should work with Fortran 90
+ (no privatization of global variables yet)
+
+ SimDag:
+ * Allow to change SimGrid configuration (see --help) within the code
+ thanks to SD_config() as it can be done in MSG.
+ * Add a new function SD_task_set_amount() upon user request.
+
+ PLATFORM:
+ * Handle units for values (10ms, 10kiloflops, 10Bps, 1GB, ...)
+ * Remove rule based routing (no more pcre dependency)
+ * Add a limiter_link option to cluster tag, to specify a maximum reachable
+ bandwidth in fullduplex mode when it is < 2*nominal bw
+ * Add a loopback_bw and loopback_lat options to cluster tag.
