optional in this tutorial, it is not installed to reduce the image
size.
+The docker does not run as root, so that the files can easily be exchanged between within the container and the outer world.
+If you need to run a command as root within the container, simply type the following in another terminal to join the same container as root:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ $ docker container ls
+ # This lists all containers running on your machine. For example:
+ # CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
+ # 7e921b1b18a7 simgrid/stable "bash" 7 minutes ago Up 7 minutes simgrid
+
+ $ docker exec --user root -it simgrid bash
+
The code template is available under ``/source/simgrid-template-s4u.git``
in the image. You should copy it to your working directory and
recompile it when you first log in:
.. code-block:: console
- $ cp -r /source/simgrid-template-s4u.git/* /source/tutorial
- $ cd /source/tutorial
- $ cmake .
- $ make
+ $ # Make sure the simgrid-tutorial directory can be read and written by the non-root user
+ $ sudo chown $UID:$GID ~/simgrid-tutorial
+ $ # Connect to the running container if needed
+ $ docker exec --user $UID:$GID -ti simgrid bash
+ $container) cp -r /source/simgrid-template-s4u.git/* /source/tutorial
+ $container) cd /source/tutorial
+ $container) cmake .
+ $container) make
Using your Computer Natively
............................
your :ref:`SimGrid installation <install>`. On need, please refer to
the :ref:`Troubleshooting your Project Setup <install_yours_troubleshooting>` section.
+.. warning::
+
+ If you use the stable version of Debian 11, Ubuntu 21.04 or Ubuntu 21.10, then you need the right version of this tutorial
+ (add ``--branch simgrid-v3.25`` as below). These distributions only contain SimGrid v3.25 while the latest version of this
+ tutorial needs at least SimGrid v3.27.
+
+ .. code-block:: console
+
+ $ git clone --branch simgrid-v3.25 https://framagit.org/simgrid/simgrid-template-s4u.git
For R analysis of the produced traces, you may want to install R
and the `pajengr <https://github.com/schnorr/pajengr#installation/>`_ package.
$ make master-workers
$ ./master-workers small_platform.xml master-workers_d.xml
+ If you get an error message complaining that ``simgrid::s4u::Mailbox::get()`` does not exist,
+ then your version of SimGrid is too old for the version of the tutorial that you got. Check again previous section.
+
.. group-tab:: Python
Please execute the provided simulator as follows:
$ python master-workers.py small_platform.xml master-workers_d.xml
+ If you get an error stating that the simgrid module does not exist, you need to get a newer version of SimGrid.
+ You may want to take the tutorial from the docker to get the newest version.
+
For a more "fancy" output, you can use simgrid-colorizer.

* Explore other communication patterns.

Computational speed
...................
Attach a profile to your hosts, so that their computational speed automatically vary over time, modeling an external load on these machines.
-This can be done with :cpp:func:`simgrid::s4u::Host::set_speed_profile` (C++) or :py:func:`simgrid.Host.set_speed_profile` (python).
+This can be done with :cpp:func:`simgrid::s4u::Host::set_speed_profile` (C++) or :py:func:`simgrid.Host.set_speed_profile` (Python).
Make it so that one of the hosts get really really slow, and observe how your whole application performance decreases.
This is because one slow host slows down the whole process. Instead of a round-robin dispatch push,
exec = simgrid:.this_actor.exec_init(compute_cost)
exec.set_tracing_category(category)
- // exec.start() is optional here as wait() starts the activity on need
+ # exec.start() is optional here as wait() starts the activity on need
exec->wait()
You can shorten this code as follows:
