// feeder [-asynch]
//
// Creates a shared memory segment containing DB info,
// including results/workunits to send.
// This means that the scheduler CGI program doesn't have to
// access the DB to get this info.
//
// -asynch      fork and run in a separate process

// TODO:
// - check for wu/results that don't get sent for a long time;
//   generate a warning message

// Trigger files:
// The feeder program periodically checks for two trigger files:
//
// stop_server:  destroy shmem and exit
//               leave trigger file there (for other daemons)
// reread_db:    update DB contents in existing shmem
//               delete trigger file

// If you get an "Invalid argument" error when trying to run the feeder,
// it is likely that you aren't able to allocate enough shared memory.
// Either increase the maximum shared memory segment size in the kernel
// configuration, or decrease the MAX_PLATFORMS, MAX_APPS
// MAX_APP_VERSIONS, and MAX_WU_RESULTS in sched_shmem.h

// Try keep the wu_results array filled.

// We use an enumerator.
// The inner loop scans the wu_result table,
// looking for empty slots and trying to fill them in.
// When the enumerator reaches the end, it is restarted;
// hopefully there will be some new workunits.
// There are two complications:
//  - An enumeration may return results already in the array.
//    So, for each result, we scan the entire array to make sure
//    it's not there already.  Can this be streamlined?
//  - We must avoid excessive re-enumeration,
//    especially when the number of results is less than the array size.
//    Crude approach: if a "collision" (as above) occurred on
//    a pass through the array, wait a long time (5 sec)
