jMSG:
* Interface improvement:
- Rename Host.isAvail() to Host.isOn()
+
SIMIX:
* New functions
- SIMIX_process_throw: raises an exception in a remote process
+ * Refactoring: Separate submodules
+ - libsmx: the public interface, as libc in a real system
+ - popping: the strange dance that converts a user request into a kernel handling
+ - smx_context_*: the virtualization mechanisms that embeed the user code
+ - smx_*: the handling of each simcalls
+ * Rename smx_action_t into smx_synchro_t, making explicit that these
+ things are used to synchronize processes with their environment.
+ For example, a communication is a sort of synchronization involving
+ the communicating processes (that may block until the exchange) and
+ the platform. The same can be said from computations, etc.
+
SMPI:
* New functions
- Onesided early support for : MPI_Win_(create, free, fence, get_name, set_name, get_group), MPI_Get, MPI_Put, MPI_Accumulate, MPI_Alloc_mem, MPI_Free_mem.
- MPI_Keyval*, MPI_Attr* functions, as well as MPI_Comm_attr*, MPI_Type_attr* variants (C only, no Fortran support yet)
- MPI_Type_set_name, MPI_Type_get_name
- MPI_*_c2f and MPI_*_f2c functions
+ - MPI_Info_* functions (beware, get_nthkey may not follow the insertion order)
- Activate a lot of new tests from the mpich 3 testsuite
* Features
- Constant times can be injected inside MPI_Wtime and MPI_Test through options smpi/wtime and smpi/test
