If you link your functions (init_result(), compare_results(),
cleanup_result()) with validate_test.cpp,
you'll get a program that you can run as
validate_test file1 file2
and it will compare the two files
(this works only for validators that expect 1 file per result).
I added a makefile, sched/makefile_validator_test,
that you can use for this.
- server: shuffle code so that the above doesn't need to
link MySQL libraries
- client: if we fetch a master file and it contains no scheduler URLs,
show a message of class INTERNAL_ERROR
- client/scheduler: make CUDA_DEVICE_PROP.totalGlobalMem a double,
and remove dtotalGlobalMem.
Although NVIDIA reports RAM size as a size_t,
there's no reason to store it as an integer after that.

- fix bug that could greatly overcommit CPUs
if there are several EDF jobs and several non-EDF GPU jobs.
- don't overcommit CPUs if any job is MT (MT means avg_ncpus > 1).
For example, on a 4-CPU machine we will run:
a 0.5-CPU GPU job and 4 1-CPU jobs
but not
a 0.5-CPU GPU job and 1 4-CPU job

The old policy avoided running an N-CPU job unless N CPUs were free.
This could result in idle CPUs for long periods; for example:
on a 4-CPU machine, suppose you have a long 1-CPU job in EDF mode,
and some 4-CPU jobs.
3 CPUs will be idle until the 1-CPU job finishes.
Furthermore, the work fetch mechanism won't try to get
jobs (possibly non-MT) from other projects,
because the RR simulation doesn't reflect the scheduling
policy's exclusion principle.
The change: schedule jobs until ncpus_used >= ncpus.
E.g. in the above situation run the 1- and 4-CPU jobs together.
In extreme cases we might run 3 1-CPU jobs and the 4-CPU job.
This will degrade the performance of the 4-CPU job,
but that's probably better than having idle CPUs.

in which the tiebreaker is MD5 of name.
That way the order is stable
(it doesn't change from one run of the client to the next)
and it doesn't grep results with similar names
(and hence for the same app).
This ordering is used for
1) the order of display in the manager
2) the job scheduler's notion of FIFO

if we're making a scheduler RPC to a project for reasons
other than work fetch,

i.e. ask for work even if we're above the min buffer

File verify is done in 4 places:
- after a download finishes
- transition result to DOWNLOADED
- if project->verify_files_on_app_start, on app start
Use asynchrony only in the first 2 cases,
since the async logic is set up to mark the file as PRESENT

When a large file is copied from a project dir to a slot dir,
it's copied in chunks,
interleaved with other polling activities such as GUI RPCs.
That way the manager doesn't freeze while large copies
(e.g. VM images) are happening

old: RR simulation marks some jobs as missing their deadline,
and the job scheduler runs those jobs as "high priority".
problem: those generally aren't the ones we should run.
E.g. if the client has a lot of jobs from a project,
typically the ones with later deadlines are the ones
whose deadlines are missed in the simulation.
But in this case the EDF policy says we should run
the ones with earliest deadlines.
new: if a project has N deadline misses,
run its N earliest-deadline jobs,
regardless of whether they missed their deadline in the sim.
Note: this is how it used to be (as designed by John McLeod).
I attempted to improve it, and got it wrong.
