+ * This is the first release of SimGrid where SMPI is not considered
+ beta anymore (even if some corners should still be improved)
+ * Port over the new SIMIX_network submodule (internal refactoring)
+ * Basic support to log events as with SMPE (use --cfg=SMPE:1)
+ * Implement more missing elements of the standard:
+ - MPI_COMM_SELF
+ - MPI_MAXLOC MPI_MINLOC + all associated datatype MPI_DOUBLE_INT,
+ MPI_FLOAT_INT, etc.
+ - MPI_Address() MPI_Get_count() MPI_Type_free() MPI_Type_extent()
+ MPI_Scan() MPI_Get_processor_name()
+ - Added implementation of missing case for Alltoall (warning: it's
+ *not* the bruck variant from OpenMPI; based on Alltoallv instead)
+ - SMPI_MPI_Gather() SMPI_MPI_Gatherv() SMPI_MPI_Scatterv()
+ SMPI_MPI_Reduce_scatter() SMPI_MPI_Allgather()
+ SMPI_MPI_Allgatherv()
+ * Bug fixes include:
+ - MPI_Waitsome() was broken
+ - Allow relative includes in smpicc
+ - Command line cfg argument 'reference_speed' was ignored...
+ - Some functions did not properly lead to auto-benching of user code
+ - smpicc passes -O2 by default (just like openmpi one)
+ SIMIX:
+ * add SIMIX_action_suspend() and SIMIX_action_resume() functions
+ * Bug fixes about timeouts during communications
+ * add SIMIX_message_sizes_output() as a pimple to write to file the
+ amount of messages per size. Use gnuplot to get histogram.
+ Pimple because that's the only user-visible function of simix,
+ defined directly in xbt.h (irk, sorry)
+ * About semaphores:
+ - Add a SIMIX_sem_get_capacity() function
+ - Fix interactions with processe resume/suspende
+ - release_forever() was stupidly broken
+ - Fix SIMIX_display_process_status() for processes in a semaphore
+ - Make SIMIX_sem_block_onto() user-visible
+ * Refactoring context stuff:
+ - Use pseudo-OOP for better modularity
+ - reimplement SIMIX_process_kill() without process_schedule() so
+ that the latter can take as invariant that it is called from
+ maestro.
+ - Merge context_start into context_new for sake of simplicity
+ SURF:
+ * Add a Vivaldi network model, coded live during SUD'10 ;)
+ * Rename configuration variables to start a hierarchy:
+ o cpu_model -> cpu/model
+ o network_model -> network/model
+ o workstation_model -> workstation/model
+ * New configuration variables:
+ o network/bandwidth_factor: correction to bandwith
+ o network/latency_factor: correction to latency
+ o netwotk/weight_S: correction to the weight of competing streams
+ * Add a long description to the models, that users can see with such
+ argument on the command line: --cfg=cpu/model:help
+ * --help-models display the long description of all known models
