SimGrid (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=low
- * Documentation update:
- - New FAQ: "Valgrind spits tons of errors!"
- - GRAS tutorial containing an introduction both to the GRAS framework
- and to the used communication model as well as an initiatic tour
- introducing the most proheminent features. Current tour TOC:
- # Lesson 0: Installing GRAS
- # Lesson 1: Setting up your own project
- # Lesson 2: Exchanging simple messages
- # Lesson 3: Passing arguments to the processes (in SG)
- # Lesson 4: Attaching callbacks to messages
- # Lesson 5: Using globals in processes
- # Lesson 6: Logging informations properly
- # Lesson 7: Using internal timers
- # Lesson 8: Handling errors through exceptions
- More a due, of course. At least the one explaining how to add data
- into messages. In the meanwhile, you can check the examples which are
- still here.
+ GRAS:
+ * New module mecanism where user code can use per process globals [Mt]
+ This is similar to gras_userdata_*() functions, but for libraries. It
+ factorize some code developped over and over in the examples and AMOK.
+ It has still to be documented and used (only amok/peermanagement is
+ converted for now).
+ * Fix a vicious bug in the TCP buffering mecanism which leaded to message
+ loss when they were small enough to fit into the buffer and sent quickly
+ enough so that they can all get received in one shoot.
+
+ AMOK:
+ * Do really rename the hostmanagement module to peermanagement. [Mt]
+ Ie, rename functions from amok_hm_* to amok_pm_*. This breaks the API,
+ but this is rather new and this was documented in the module
+ documentation (poor excuses, I admit)
+
+ Documentation update:
+ * FAQ reworking + New FAQs:
+ - "Valgrind spits tons of errors!" [Mt]
