Maybe the hypervisor log will tell us what is up with the virtual floppy device. - VBOX: Don't retry commands that are expected to fail in normal use cases. It slows down getting the VM up and running. - VBOX: After starting the VM, use a timed loop waiting for the initial VM state change instead of just waiting for 5 seconds. Older machines can take longer than 5 seconds to switch from poweroff to starting. If we hit the main poll loop in that state the wrapper thinks we have crashed. - VBOX: Strip carriage returns from all the vboxmanage output on Windows. samples/vboxwrapper/ vbox.cpp, .h vboxwrapper.cpp David 2 Jan 2012 - client: compute projects' disk share (based on resource share).

Make it easier to track failure rates by problem type in the ops pages. (Windows Only) - VBOX: Try making the process of extracting the hypervisor system log more robust, make a temp copy of it in the slot directory.

Hypervisor log suggests that it launched the VM but it failed unexpectedly. So there might be cases where it actually exists. samples/vboxwrapper/ vbox.cpp, .h vboxwrapper.cpp Rom 4 Jan 2012 - VBOX: Move start state change detection code from run() function to start() function and use similar code to handle stop as well. Weird stuff happens when people start/stop BOINC quickly, it looks as though the previous VM instance isn't shutdown before we attempt to start it again. Hopefully enough of a wait is in there for the VM to fully halt before the wrapper is terminated. samples/vboxwrapper/ vbox.cpp Rom 4 Jan 2012 - VBOX: Fix a crash bug if multiple virtual NICs are defined for a VM. I'm not sure what the heck happened. It probably has something to do with my \r removal code on Windows.

If only one CPU is allocated, manually disable VM hardware acceleration. samples/vboxwrapper/ vbox.cpp David 9 Jan 2012 - scheduler: the p_fpops value reported by clients can't be trusted. Some credit cheats (e.g. with credit_by_runtime) can be done by reporting a huge value.

Remote desktop stopped working if the client software was restarted. samples/vboxwrapper vboxwrapper.cpp Charlie 13 Jan 2012 - client: Due to my changes of 10 Jan 2012, idle detection did not work when BOINC was run as a pre-login daemon. So use the old method when running as a daemon. This means that idle detection for Apple Remote Desktop and screen sharing (VNC) under Mac OS 10.7 works only when not running BOINC as a daemon. client/ hostinfo_unix.cpp Rom 13 Jan 2012 - VBOX: Cleanup a few messages stating port numbers in the stderr spew. - VBOX: Send configuration settings in one message instead of piece meal. api/ boinc_api.cpp, .h samples/vboxwrapper vboxwrapper.cpp Rom 13 Jan 2012 - VBOX: It helps to remove the older send msg routines.

Since there is no CAL for Mac, this is not an issue for ATI / AMD GPUs. On other platforms, the CUDA and CAL drivers also provide OpenCL support, so we don't expect the problem there. Solution: I believe that CUDA and OpenCL return identical GPU model names for the same GPU, and that both return the GPUs in the same order (but with some possibly omitted from the OpenCL sequence.) We use that information to correlate the OpenCL data with CUDA data. We use our internal CUDA device_num for the corresponding OpenCL device, but add a new field opencl_device_index; the two fields are equal unless we have CUDA devices not recognized by OpenCL. We add a new array opencl_device_indexes[] to the COPROC struct, corresponding to the entries in device_nums[]. The init_data.xml file now has a new field gpu_opencl_device_index. If this field exists, the boinc_get_opencl_ids() API uses this to find the cl_device_id and cl_platform_id, otherwise it continues to use the value in gpu_device_num. api/ boinc_opencl.cpp client/ app_start.cpp coproc_detect.cpp lib/ app_ipc.cpp,.h coproc.h David 20 Jan 2012 - volunteer data archival stuff ssim/ vda.cpp,h (new) ssim.cpp makefile David 20 Jan 2012 - client: add a mechanism for restartable download of compressed files. (It turns out that the compression schemes supported by Apache and libcurl, suprisingly, aren't restartable.) if a from the server contains tags, use those instead of the 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 is present in a , add a gzipped copy in the download directory and add a elements to the app version's xml_doc. client/ client_types.cpp,h file_xfer.cpp cs_files.cpp tools/ update_versions David 20 Jan 2012 - feeder: if we're rereading the DB because of trigger file, do PERF_INFO::get_from_db() also.

If the server specifies 1.1 CPUs used, allocate 2 CPUs to be used in VirtualBox. samples/vboxwrapper vboxwrapper.cpp Rom 21 Jan 2012 - sched: adjust the vbox??_mt plan classes to use 1.5 CPUs instead of the full 2 CPUs. Vboxwrapper uses ceil() to allocate enough whole CPUs for Virtualbox. Ideally this will cause the BOINC client-side scheduler to use the remaining fraction of the CPU for GPU data transfer which will then free up one whole CPU for another job. All without over-commiting anything. sched/ sched_customize.cpp David 22 Jan 2012 - GUI RPC: switching to the new XML parser (which won't parse a double as an int) revealed a type mismatch in FILE_TRANSFER::next_request_time between client and server. db/ boinc_db.cpp,h schema_vda.sql (new) lib/ gui_rpc_client_ops.cpp gui_rpc_client.h ssim/ vda.cpp vda_lib.cpp,h vda_transitioner.cpp makefile client/ net_stats.cpp David 22 Jan 2012 - client: fix divide-by-zero bug in calculation of priority of projects with zero resource share client/ cpu_sched.cpp Rom 23 Jan 2012 - MGR: Tweak the z-order of BOINC Manager owned windows a little bit.

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 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".

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. client/ cpu_sched.cpp Rom 2 Feb 2012 - MGR: Fix cookie detection problem when using the IEGetProtectedModeCookie API.

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 client/ async_file.cpp,h (new) client_types.h client_state.cpp app.cpp,h app_start.cpp Makefile.am Rom 3 Feb 2012 - client: add async file copy stuff to Windows project file. client/ async_file.cpp win_build/ boinc_cli.vcproj David 3 Feb 2012 - client: debug async file copy.

Manager (GUI RPC client): PROJECT struct has cpu_backoff_time cpu_backoff_interval ... cuda, ati no_cpu_pref ... cuda, ati and it parses tags of these names. In other words, no information is being conveyed from client to Manager.

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 done, not to restart a task client/ client_types.h app_start.cpp pers_file_xfer.cpp cs_apps.cpp cs_files.cpp Rom 8 Feb 2012 - VBOX: Remove the renaming of the vm disk image code.
