If an app is hard, the scheduler always does the deadline check,
even if the client has no other jobs for this project.
And the estimated wallclock duration is multiplied by 1.3,
to avoid sending jobs to hosts that will barely make the deadline.
Hard apps are marked by setting weight = -1.
This is a total kludge, to avoid adding another field to app.

set the timestamp of the thread to the timetamp of
the latest non-hidden post (rather than to now).
Same thing for forum timestamp.

This tells the sample bitwise validator to ignore this file.

app executable from boinc_samples/example_app/uc2,
rather than boinc/apps/upper_case.
(boinc_samples must be installed in the same dir as boinc).
The reason: the BOINC autoconf-based build process
produces executables that have zillions of shared library dependencies,
and generally won't run on machines other than
the one where they were built.
Executables built in boinc_samples/ don't have this problem.

- client: change CUDA detection on Linux and Mac.
Look for libcuda.so in /usr/lib/nvidia and /usr/lib64/nvidia.
If we find it, assume that libcudart is in the library path.

don't create shmem segs in global name space.
Hopefully this will fix a bug
(on Vista, UAC off, non-protected install)
where apps fail to attach to shmem.

(it's an exit code, not a function error code)
- client: reduce severity of benchmark error
- scheduler: compile fix

(fix links on profile-index pages)
- web: use cache-control "no-store" only for home.php.
This makes it so that, e.g. if you scroll to the middle of a long page,
follow a link, then click Back,
you'll go back the original scroll position rather than top of page.

There are two aspects:
1) undoing magic quotes (if it's being used).
This must be done for all GET and POST string inputs.
It is now done automatically by get_str() and post_str().
The places that refer to $_GET and $_POST directly
must do it themselves using undo_magic_quotes().
2) Escaping user-supplied strings before using them in DB queries.
This is done by process_user_text()
(which should be renamed db_escape_string()).
The new principle:
call process_user_text() in the function that does the DB query
(not at any higher level).
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=15389
1) it's not correct to apply stripslashes() to all form input.
That should be done only if magic quotes is on.
I fixed this by adding a function undo_magic_quotes()
that does the right thing.
2) There's no reason to strip backslashes from user-supplied text
(forum titles and bodies, private messages, passwords etc.)
I'm not sure why this was being done.
It prevented messages from containing backslashes.

to return a struct FILE_INFO (including "optional")
instead of just the filename.
This lets you avoid erroring out if optional file is missing.

so there was no way of rescuing a team with invalid founder email.
I changed it to record the request anyway.
This is potentially hazardous - if the founder's email server
is temporarily down, the request would go through
without the founder being notified.
To offset this, I added a notification via private message.

If present, don't show anything related to computing.
Use this for Bossa/Bolt projects, and the BOINC message boards.

and change the correspending structure field from 64KB to 256KB
(could increase this if needed).
This is needed to handle app versions with lots (> 100) of files
- change LARGE_BLOB_SIZE to BLOB_SIZE a bunch of places
- Change COPROCS from vector<COPROC> to vector<COPROC*>.
Otherwise the right virtual functions of COPROCs don't get called
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14986
- 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)
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14966
- DB code: remove "is_high_priority" stuff.
- scheduler: merge find_app_version() into get_app_version().
Have the latter memoize its results (both positive and negative).
Have it call app_plan() for apps with nonempty plan_class.
- scheduler: first steps towards improved selectability of log messages.
It will eventually be like the client,
where you can select among various types of messages.
- feeder: if can't unlink the reread_db trigger file, exit
(else we'd go into an infinite loop)

and apps that use coprocessors.
There now can be several app_versions for the same
(app, platform, version_num) combination.
This changes a number of things.
- Added app_version.plan_class field to DB
- update_versions now looks for a :plan-class in the
file or directory name, and puts it in the app_version's DB record
- Change uniqueness constraint to include plan_class
- Feeder: the feeder was putting non-deprecated app_versions
in shared mem, and leaving it to the scheduler to
find the latest version for a given platform.
This is dumb.
Instead, for each app/platform pair the feeder now
finds the highest version number of a non-deprecated app version,
and enumerates all non-deprecated app_versions with that
app/platform/version
- Scheduler: add a BEST_APP_VERSION data structure that keeps track,
for each app, what the best app_version is for this host.
This saves the work of recomputing it for each job.
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14906
The new field (workunit.rsc_bandwidth_bound)
goes at the END of the record.
Always do it this way!
- make_work: after creating a batch of new WUs,
we were waiting 60 sec for the transitioner to
create the results for them
(so that our next count of unsent results would be correct).
This is bogus; if e.g. the transitioner isn't running,
we'll never get the results, and we'll keep creating WUs forever.
Instead: explicitly wait for there to be results for
the last WU from the batch just created.
- scheduler: parse <allow_non_preferred_apps>, <allow_beta_work> correctly.
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14875
The design has been changed to constant #threads per app version
Various changes from Kevin Reed/WCG:
- server: add workunit.rsc_bandwidth_bound: if nonzero,
send this WU only to hosts with that much download bandwidth
- assimilators: if a handler returns DEFER_ASSIMILATION,
the WU remains in INIT state and will be handled when the
next instance completes.
Useful if you want the assimilator to see all instances.
- scheduler: when setting result.outcome = DETACHED,
set received_time to now
- scheduler: removed the reliable_time and reliable_min_avg_credit
options
- scheduler/web: add optional <allow_non_preferred_projects>
in project preferences.
If present, user will accept work from non-selected apps
if no work is available for selected apps
- scheduler: improved messages for projects with multiple apps
- scheduler: added config options
<granted_credit_weight> and <granted_credit_ramp_up>.
Used in calculating host.claimed_credit_per_cpu_sec,
but I'm not sure how.
- Added two new credit-granting formulas (validate_util.C):
stddev_credit() and two_credit()
- server DB: add rollback_transaction() and affected_rows() to DB_CONN
NOTE: DB update required
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14870
- web: remove get_transform_settings_from_user().
There's only get_output_options()
NOTE: why is text_transform() doing stripslashes()?
The slashes shouldn't be in the DB in the first place.
There's some fundamental confusion here.
- web: fix uotd.php
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14866
It works, at least in my test case.
- boinc_submit script:
show status every 10 seconds until completed
add --wait option to show status for previous submission
- Added get_logical_name() in validate_util.C
- create_work: change default target_nresults from 5 to 2,
max_error_results from 10 to 3,
max_total_results from 20 to 10,
max_success_results from 10 to 6
- boinc_cmd: show full usage if no args
- project setup: copy single_job_assimilator

But if we do, set their transitioner time to plus infinity
so that we don't see them again.
(otherwise we go into an infinite loop)
- DB code: remove "high_priority" from queries not from scheduler
(should probably remove them from there too)
- file_deleter: print error msg if apache user doesn't exist
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14835
- web: "least recent" => "oldest", "most recent" => "newest"
- scheduler: change DELAY_NO_WORK_CACHE from 20 min to 0.
Otherwise, a host that has max_wus_in_progress,
completes one, and sends a work request before the upload is finished
will delay (and maybe sit idle) for 20 min.
Better to have a few extra scheduler requests
and let the client's backoff take care of things.

Lets you assign a WU to a particular host,
to one or all hosts belonging to a user or team, or to all hosts.
See http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/AssignedWork
Disabled unless you include <enable_assignment> in config.xml
Uses a new DB table.
Tested but only a little.
- Server: code cleanup; moved result-handling to a new file,
and removed the PLATFORM_LIST arg to everything
(put it in SCHEDULER_REQUEST instead)
svn path=/trunk/boinc/; revision=14767
which added only confusion.
Implement login directly, using cookies.
- All cookie setting/clearing now goes through two functions,
send_cookie() and clear_cookie().
These deal with path and expiry
(e.g. if you want to have different language or forum settings
on two projects on the same server, that now works).
