to be sent to non-targeted hosts.
The feeder was erroneously putting targeted jobs
in the shared mem cache.
Changes:
- The feeder only enumerates jobs for which
workunit.transitioner_flags is zero.
NOTE: this field is nonzero iff the job is assigned.
- create_work: when creating an assigned jobs,
set workunit.transitioner_flags appropriately
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=25314
This now supports two main use cases:
1) there's a job that you want to run once on all hosts,
present and future
(or all hosts belonging to a user, or to a team).
The job is never transitioned, validated, or assimilated.
2) There's a normal job for which you want to use only
hosts belonging to a specific user (e.g. cluster or cloud hosts).
This restriction can be made either when the job is created,
or on the fly,
e.g. as part of a scheme for accelerating batch completion.
For the latter purposes we now provide a function
restrict_wu_to_user(DB_WORKUNIT&, int userid);
The job goes through the standard
transitioner/validator/assimilator path.
These cases are enabled by config flags
<enable_assignment_multi/>
<enable_assignment/>
respectively.
Assignment of type 2) are no longer stored in shared mem,
so there is no limit on their number.
There is no longer a rule that assigned job names must contain "asgn".
NOTE: this requires a database update.

send the size of the compressed file as well.
- client: parse and write the compressed size (FILE_INFO::gzipped_nbytes).
For get_transfer GUI RPCs, if it's a compressed download send
the compressed size.
That way the manager will show the fraction done correctly.

(It turns out that the compression schemes supported by
Apache and libcurl, suprisingly, aren't restartable.)
if a <file_info> from the server contains <gzipped_url> tags,
use those instead of the <url> tags,
and flag the file as "download_gzipped".
If this is the case, download NAME.gz and save it as NAME.gzt.
When the download is complete, rename NAME.gzt to NAME.gz,
and uncompress it to NAME.
(this ensures that if NAME.gz is present, it's complete).
Also do the uncompression, if needed, in verify_file().
This ensures that the uncompression will eventually get done
even if the client quits are crashes in the middle.
- update_versions: if <gzip> is present in a <file_info>,
add a gzipped copy in the download directory
and add a <gzipped_url> elements to the app version's xml_doc.

and other operations.
You can now designate a user as "manager" for a particular app.
They can then:
- control job-submit permissions for that app
- deprecate/undeprecate versions of the app.
- abort jobs for that app
You can also designate a user a manage for the project.
They can then edit permissions and quotas,
as well as performing the app-specific functions for all apps.
This is described here:
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/MultiUser#Accesscontrol

Problems with the old version:
- Lots of info encoded in file and directory names: messy kludge
- The convention that directory name == main program name
created a bad situation when using the wrapper:
if you made a new version of your application,
you were forced make a new version of the wrapper
just so it could have a different name.
The new version is described here:

The problem: we were using strcpy(p, p+n) to delete the

This supports "non-local" input files,

It wasn't copying html/ops/db_update.php,
so it wasn't doing necessary DB updates.
Fixed this by always copying html/ops/*.
Even with this fix, there is a problem when using
the --server_only or --web_only options of upgrade:
if any DB updates are done, they may affect the
server code that's not being updated, resulting in crashes.
I added a warning message in this case,
recommending that a full upgrade be done.

That produced a messed-up query that assigned garbage values to:
host_app_version.turnaround_var
host_app_version.turnaround_q
host_app_version.max_jobs_per_day
host_app_version.consecutive_valid
To repair these:
- set turnaround_var and turnaround_q to zero
- if max_jobs_per_day is outside of
(0..config.daily_result_quota)
set it to config.daily_result_quota
- if consecutive_valid is outside (0..1000), set it to zero
I added a script, html/ops/repair_21812.php, that does this;
if you ran server code between [21181] and [21812], run this script.
- scheduler/transitioner: add <debug_quota> log flag
- changed the build system to always use -Wall
(if we'd done this before, this bug wouldn't have happened)

- client (Unix): if client crashes while benchmark processes are going,
make sure they detect this and exit.
- back-end programs: remove hardwired assumptions about
what directory they run in, and hence where config.xml is.
E.g., daemons look for it in "..", others expect it in current dir.
New approach: all the programs look for the project dir as follows:
1) the environment var BOINC_PROJECT_DIR, if defined
2) the current dir, if config.xml is there.
3) else ".."
This means you can run programs in either proj/bin/ or proj/,
or (using BOINC_PROJECT_DIR) you can keep executables
outside of the project dir.
