Options network/loopback-lat and network/loopback-bw have been added to adapt
these values if needed. Network and routing models already providing separate
loopbacks (clusters and such) are not impacted by this change.
+ - SMPI now adds 16 bytes of header to each message sent, in order to simulate
+ metadata that are added to each MPI message by MPI libraries (tag,
+ src/dest, and communicator information). This may change simulation times
+ for very small message sizes, but should be more realistic.
+
+S4U:
+ - the on_exit() of each actor is also executed when the simulation deadlocks.
+
+SMPI:
+ - Update proxy apps coverage of new ECP apps: 60+ apps now tested nightly on
+ https://framagit.org/simgrid/SMPI-proxy-apps
+ - MPI/IO: supports names starting with "./"
+ - Fortran: many MPI/IO bindings, support for MPI_UB/LB, C MPI_INT/FLOAT/DOUBLE
+ datatypes.
+ - smpicc/cxx/ff/f90 now will actually perform definition checks at link time. When
+ building shared libraries, this may cause issues, so environment variable
+ SMPI_NO_UNDEFINED_CHECK can be added to disable this.
+
+C binding:
+ - The return type of the sg_actor_on_exit() callbacks is now 'void'
+ (int value was previously ignored)
General:
- LTO is now enabled for Intel/clang compilers.
- Many MSG tests were converted to the new S4U's interface in C, that
was extended for that.
+Simix:
+ - Remove obsolete option --cfg=contexts/parallel-threshold.
+

-simix:
+Simix:
- Add parameter --cfg=simix/breakpoint to raise a SIGTRAP at given time.
- kill simix::onDeadlock() that was somewhat dupplicating s4u::on_deadlock()
- Improve performance when handling timeouts of simix synchros.
