- scheduler: fix bug in adaptive replication:
if send an unreplicated job to untrusted host,
set both wu.target_nresults and wu.min_quorum to app.target_nresults.
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=15762
and clear all timeout variables.
This should fix the situation where, say:
1) the user sets the system clock forward by a year;
2) all projects get their min_rpc_time set;
3) the user sets the system clock back to the correct time.
Previously, BOINC would not do anything for a year.
Note: a restart of BOINC is required to fix things.
It would be harder to do this on the fly.

in <app_version>s from the server,
keep track of the number free of each type of coproc,
and don't run an app that needs more than are available.

- update_versions: use __ (not :) as separator for plan class
- client: add plan_class to APP_VERSION;
an app version is now identified by platform/version/plan_class
- client CPU scheduler: don't assume apps use 1 CPU
- client: add avg_ncpus, max_cpus, flops, cmdline to RESULT
- scheduler: implement app planning scheme
Other changes:
- client: if symlink() fails, make a XML soft link instead
(for Unix running off a FAT32 FS)
- client: don't accept nonpositive resource share from AMS
- daemons and DB: check for error returns from enumerations,
and exit if so. Thus, if the MySQL server goes down,
all the daemons will soon exit.
The cron script will restart them every 5 min,
so when the DB server comes back up so will the project.
- web: show empty max CPU % as ---
- API: get rid of all_threads_cpu_time option (always the case now)

Specifies an amount of time to delay starting apps
(e.g. so that BOINC doesn't slow down boot process)
Note: mechanisms that start BOINC at boot time
need to figure out how to set this flag.

(wasn't implemented anyway)
- client: added <report_results_immediately> configuration flag;
causes results to be reported as soon as done.
Needed for some WCG machines that are reformatted often.
Should NOT be used in general, since it increases server load.

- move client sandbox-specific code to a new file, sandbox.C
- remove g_use_sandbox from util.C; move to MainDocument.cpp (manager)
and sandbox.C (client)
- don't declare check_security() in util.h; it's not in util.C
- don't call remove_project_owned_file_or_dir() in
boinc_delete_file_aux() or boinc_rmdir();
rather, at the points in the client that delete
dirs that are usually owned by boinc_projects,
call remove_project_owned_file_or_dir() first,
then clean_out_dir().
- rename boinc_exec() to switcher_exec() and move it to sandbox.C
Note: this change was sparked by needing to remove a call to getgrnam()
from boinclib, to avoid requiring the same version of glibc
on both compile and target hosts

there's a single GUI_HTTP object,
and it works only if used sequentially,
i.e. an op is started only after the previous one ends.
This breaks if a GUI RPC triggerse and op while
a project-list fetch (initiated by the client itself) is in progress.
Or if two managers are connected at the same time,
and both do HTTP ops.
The solution: have a separate GUI_HTTP object for each GUI_RPC_CONN,
and an additional one for use by the client itself.

(deciding which app to use, implementing blanking interval, etc.)
This logic is all now in the screensaver itself.
- GUI RPC: removed get/set screensaver mode RPCs
- API: added a "backwards_compatible_graphics" flag to BOINC_OPTIONS.
V6 apps should set this.
If set, the runtime library checks for graphics messages
from the client, and launches/kills the graphics app (if any).
The app will then work graphically with pre-V6 clients.
- removed some old files

that lets you suspend computation after a specified period of idleness.
This is necessary to allow some machines to go into low-power mode
when they're not being used.
- Change the wording of some existing prefs; for example, changed
"Do work while computer is in use?" to
"Suspend work while computer is in use".
The former is confusing - if you say yes, BOINC may in fact
NOT do work while the computer is in use,
due to other factors (time of day, etc.)
TODO: HOST_INFO::users_idle() should be changed so that it
returns the idle time
(rather than telling you whether we've been idle for X)

but don't do anything other than handle GUI RPCs.
After 50 secs, print an "about to exit" message.
After 60 seconds, exit
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=13162
This cause the core client to exit immediately before or after
running a job,
letting you examine the contents of the slot directory.
- scheduler: changed max # of CPUs used in daily_result_quota
limit from 4 to 8, and make it a compile-time parameter
- feeder/scheduler: make the number of work items in shared
memory configurable (in config.xml).
The element is <shmem_work_items>
- feeder: make the size of the work item query configurable
(<feeder_query_size)
- feeder: remove code related to removing infeasible results
from shared mem.
This mechanism was never needed,
and I think a timeout would accomplish the same effect.

1) client wakes up from hibernate
2) one or more network ops start (e.g. because backoff expired)
3) ops fail because DNS system isn't up yet
4) connect to reference site fails too
5) user sees "please create physical connection",
even though there's been a physical connection the whole time.
Solution:
- keep track of "last wakeup time": the last time the
time of day (measured in poll_slow_events()) increased by more than 10 times the polling interval.
This must be either coming out of hibernation,
or the user resetting the system clock.
- When a network operation fails, try to contact the reference site
only if it's more than 30 seconds after the last wakeup time.

if the initial sched request failed,
the manager would show "communicating" for 60 sec,
then time out and show "failed to attach".
But the project would actually be attached.
This was due to a logic error,
but I fixed it in a more fundamental way:
by considering an attach to be complete immediately,
without waiting for a successful scheduler RPC.
This was originally done to ensure that the URL and account key were valid.
But when using the BOINC Manager, we've already verified
both of these before doing the attach project RPC.
When using boinc_cmd, you now have to check for messages
indicating a bad URL or account key.
I changed things to print these messages on every sched RPC.
Implementation: the notion of "tentative project" no longer exists.

Remove the tacet assumption that a host can handle
applications for a single platform.
With the Apr 30 scheduler changes,
a project may (at different times)
send app versions for the same app and version number,
but different platforms.
Before we would have ignored all but the first;
now we handle them correctly.
Implementation notes:
- Add APP_VERSION.platform, RESULT.platform,
and RESULT.version_num.
If these are missing from an XML doc
(e.g. an existing state file or a scheduler reply
from a project not running current server)
then set to the primary platform.
- Continue to write workunit.version_num
and active_task.version_num to state file,
even though these are no longer part of the struct.
This allows users to revert to an older version.
