- VBOX: If VirtualBox reports an error snag both the hypervisor system
log as well as the VM execution log. 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.

- OpenCL:
Problem: Mac OpenCL does not recognize all NVIDIA GPUs returned
by CUDA. 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.

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,

(this ensures that if NAME.gz is present, it's complete).
Also do the uncompression, if needed, in verify_file().

- client: because available GPU RAM value is unreliable, don't defer
scheduling a task based on insufficient GPU RAM. For now, the
relevant code is guarded by a "#define DEFER_ON_GPU_AVAIL_RAM 0"
so we can easily restore it if we find a reliable way to get the
value of available GPU RAM periodically.
NOTE: we are still sending this unreliable value to project

- server: revamp the "assigned job" mechanism.
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".
NOTE: this requires a database update.

- client: fix job scheduler problem:
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.

- client: change the job scheduling policy for MT jobs.
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.

- scheduler: when choosing the best app version,
by default we skip app versions that use a resource
for which work has not been requested.
This is determined by the "check_req" arg to get_app_version().
This flag is cleared whenever we want to send a job
regardless of whether a requested resource can be used:
namely, when resending lost jobs, and when sending assigned jobs.
Fix a bug that could skip unrequested versions even
when check_req is false.
NOTES:
1) The current semantics aren't right.
When check_req is false, we selected the fastest of all app versions,
including those for which no work is requested.
Instead, we should select the fastest of the versions
for which work is requested if there are any;
otherwise, select the fastest version.
2) The mechanism isn't implemented for anonymous platform.
It should be.
3) If we've cached an answer (including NULL) for a given
value of check_req, that answer may be wrong for a different value.

- scheduler: the scheduler (stderr) log is buffered to keep the output of
one instance together in the scheduler.log when multiple instances are
running. Currently the buffer has a fixed size of 32768 charaters.
On one hand with much debug output this buffer may turn out to be
too small. OTOH the log of this instance is completely lost in case
of a crash, which doesn't help with debugging. Thus make the
scheduler log buffer size configurable using the tag
in project config. The default value is
still the old size (32768), set it to 0 to disable buffering
completely, e.g. for debugging.
sched/

Bernd 27 Feb 2012
- scheduler: Another feature for debugging the scheduler.
Previously (little known) the scheduler could be hacked to preserve
the sched_request.xml and sched_reply.xml in own directories
(you had to modify the initial value of use_files in sched_main.cpp).
This feature could now be switched on and off on the fly just by
changing the project config.
When there is an (existing) directory configured as
, each schduler instance will write three
files in there: PID_C_sched.log, PID_C_sched_request.xml and (if all
goes well) PID_C_sched_reply.xml. PID is the process id of this
scheduler instance, C is an internal counter within the process if
FCGI is used. The sched.log will contain nothing else than the
pid and the IP address of the client. This should allow for
identifying the scheduler instance responsible for a given
apache error log message ("premature end of script headers") when
a scheduler crashed. sched_request.xml (obviously) is the scheduler
request, and if the scheduler doesn't crash in between, there will
also be the reply to the client kept in sched_reply.xml
Remove the tag from the project config
to turn this feature off.
