A last solution is to pass your configuration directly using the C
interface. If you happen to use the MSG interface, this is very easy
-with the MSG_config() function. If you do not use MSG, that's a bit
+with the simgrid::s4u::Engine::setConfig() or MSG_config() functions. If you do not use MSG, that's a bit
more complex, as you have to mess with the internal configuration set
directly as follows. Check the \ref XBT_config "relevant page" for
details on all the functions you can use in this context, \c
@code
#include <xbt/config.h>
-extern xbt_cfg_t _sg_cfg_set;
-
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
SD_init(&argc, argv);
/* Prefer MSG_config() if you use MSG!! */
- xbt_cfg_set_parse(_sg_cfg_set,"Item:Value");
+ xbt_cfg_set_parse("Item:Value");
// Rest of your code
}
@endcode

\section options_model Configuring the platform models
\anchor options_storage_model
If you compiled SimGrid accordingly, you can use packet-level network
simulators as network models (see \ref pls_ns3). In that case, you have
-two extra models, described below, and some \ref options_pls "specific
-additional configuration flags".
+two extra models, described below, and some
+\ref options_pls "specific additional configuration flags".
- \b NS3: Network pseudo-model using the NS3 tcp model
Concerning the CPU, we have only one model for now:
\subsubsection options_model_network_gamma Maximal TCP window size
The analytical models need to know the maximal TCP window size to take
-the TCP congestion mechanism into account. This is set to 20000 by
+the TCP congestion mechanism into account. This is set to 4194304 by
default, but can be changed using the \b network/TCP-gamma item.
On linux, this value can be retrieved using the following
Note that with the default host model this option is activated by default.
-\subsubsection options_model_network_sendergap Simulating sender gap
-
-(this configuration item is experimental and may change or disapear)
-
-It is possible to specify a timing gap between consecutive emission on
-the same network card through the \b network/sender-gap item. This
-is still under investigation as of writting, and the default value is
-to wait 10 microseconds (1e-5 seconds) between emissions.
-
\subsubsection options_model_network_asyncsend Simulating asyncronous send
(this configuration item is experimental and may change or disapear)
\subsection options_modelchecking_visited model-check/visited, Cycle detection
In order to detect cycles, the model-checker needs to check if a new explored
-state is in fact the same state than a previous one. In order to do this,
+state is in fact the same state than a previous one. For that,
the model-checker can take a snapshot of each visited state: this snapshot is
then used to compare it with subsequent states in the exploration graph.
-The \b model-check/visited is the maximum number of states which are stored in
-memory. If the maximum number of snapshotted state is reached some states will
-be removed from the memory and some cycles might be missed.
+The \b model-check/visited option is the maximum number of states which are stored in
+memory. If the maximum number of snapshotted state is reached, some states will
+be removed from the memory and some cycles might be missed. Small
+values can lead to incorrect verifications, but large value can
+exhaust your memory, so choose carefully.
By default, no state is snapshotted and cycles cannot be detected.
can then fed to the graphviz dot tool to generate an corresponding graphical
representation.
-\subsection options_modelchecking_max_depth model-check/max_depth, Depth limit
+\subsection options_modelchecking_max_depth model-check/max-depth, Depth limit
The \b model-checker/max-depth can set the maximum depth of the exploration
graph of the model-checker. If this limit is reached, a logging message is
TODO: Add when this should be used.
-\subsection options_generic_path XML file inclusion path
+\subsection options_generic_path Profile files' search path
It is possible to specify a list of directories to search into for the
-\<include\> tag in XML files by using the \b path configuration
+trace files (see @ref pf_trace) by using the \b path configuration
item. To add several directory to the path, set the configuration
item several times, as in \verbatim
--cfg=path:toto --cfg=path:tutu
\subsection options_exception_cutpath Truncate local path from exception backtrace
\verbatim
---cfg=exceptions/cutpath:1
+--cfg=exception/cutpath:1
\endverbatim
This configuration option is used to remove the path from the
It can be done by using XBT. Go to \ref XBT_log for more details.
