a couple of locality scheduling fixes:
- remove obsolete and buggy code from transitioner (create_result() in backend_lib)
- account for 'mixed' scheduling in explain_to_user() in sched_send.cpp
- finish transition to configurable patterns for distinguishing files reported by the client
in the Einstein@home-specific part of send_work_locality in sched_locality

- client: scheduling problem:
- a project overestimates job FLOP counts
- the client starts jobs in EDF mode
- as job progresses and fraction done increases,
its completion time estimate decreases until
it's no longer a deadline miss.
- job gets preempted by other job from that project;
you end up with lots of partly completed jobs.
Solution (I hope): if an app version has running jobs,
compute a "temp DCF" for the app version,
which is the min of dynamic/static estimates for its jobs.
Apply this scaling factor to completion time estimates
for unstarted jobs in RR simulation
- client: the estimation of remaining time of running jobs was wrong
(how did this bug survive so long?)

- client: Eliminate x86_64 Mac client; i386 client determines if
system supports x86_64 applications and sets HOSTTYPE and
platform accordingly. This allows us to link with the 32-bit
CUDA libraries. The one other effect is that the benchmarks
are run in 32-bit mode even on a 64-bit capable Mac.
- client: Async get_state RPC was not updating state.have_ati field.

David 11 Jan 2010
- API: if app can't acquire lock file, tell the client not
to restart app for 10 minutes.
Hopefully what will happen is:
- another instance of app is running in slot dir
(shouldn't happen, but sometimes does)
- that app will eventually finish, and will write
a checkpoint file saying so.
It will call boinc_finish(0), but the client won't notice
that it has exited.
- the next time the client starts the app,
it will acquire lock, see that it's done,
and call boinc_finish(0).
This time the client will notice,
and the job will be reported as correct.
The downside to all this is that the client won't know
that the CPU is in use, and will schedule NCPUS jobs.

- MGR: The fix of 14 Oct 2009 for "initial first connection problem on

Simple to Advanced View if using an account manager: solve this by
calling pDoc->IsConnected() in CAdvancedFrame::CreateMenu() instead
of using bool argument bRPCsSafe. Remove unused bRPCsSafe arg from
CAdvancedFrame::CreateNotebook(), CAdvancedFrame::CreateStatusbar().

- transitioner: fix bug where WUs with error_mask <> 0 keep
transitioning every 10 days, hence never become eligible for purging.
The problem: the transitioner has a "safety net" where,
if the WU doesn't have a canonical result,
it arranges for another transition in 10 days.
Skip this if error_mask<>0.

David 26 Jan 2010
- client/manager: eliminate duplicate notices.
When appending a new notice, we check whether one with
the same title and description is present already.
If so we remove one or the other, depending on the situation.
This introduces the possibility of "holes" in the seqno space.
In order that the manager learns of these deletions,
we use the following mechanism:
whenever a notice is removed (because it's a dup or too old)
a flag is set in each GUI_RPC_CONN.
On the next get_notice() RPC, the client returns the entire
list of notices, preceded by a dummy notice with seqno=-1;
this tells the RPC stub function to replace the current list
rather than appending to it.

Charlie 26 Jan 2010
- Mac Sandbox: The init_data.xml file in each slot directory also contains
an authenticator; to keep these private, change ownership of the "slots"
directory to boinc_master:boinc_project and eliminate read and execute
permissions of this directory for "other". For consistency, make the
same changes to the "projects" directory. The individual slot and
project directories are still world-executable and they and their
contents are still world-readable, so the Client can still read files
created by project apps with ownership boinc_project:boinc_project.
- NOTE: I believe this should not cause any problems for either BOINC or
project applications, but it needs to be tested thoroughly.

- scheduler: add example code for SETI@home's situation
where app has both GPU and CPU versions,

the GPU version performs poorly and shouldn't be used.
The fix is a kludge - it will result in these jobs
not being sent to the host at all,
rather than being sent with the CPU app.
The current architecture makes it difficult to do otherwise.
One possible fix would be to create a separate app
for VLAR jobs, with only CPU app versions.

- Mac installer: If installing an acct_mgr_url.xml file, don't install it
directly into the BOINC Data directory. Instead, put it into the
installer's resources and have the postinstall or postupgrade script
copy it to the BOINC Data directory. This fixes a problem which would

- various components: fix inconsistencies in how user names

In particular, edit_user_info_action.php was using
htmlentities() on names; this led to double-encoding.
The new rules:
1) no HTML tags allowed in either one.
This is enforced silently, using strip_tags()
2) names are stored in the DB exactly as entered.
They may contain chars like & and >.
They may contain non-ASCII characters
(use UTF-8 if you want them displayed correctly).
None of these are not escaped.
3) When the names are put in XML
(e.g. in scheduler reply or db_dump output)
they are XML-escaped.
This escapes <, &, and non-ASCII chars
4) The client leaves them in this form,
and writes them that way in GUI RPCs
and init_data.xml files.
5) The parsing of GUI RPC replies and init_data.xml files
XML-unescapes them.

- server: various changes;
see http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/CreditNew
Projects will need to update DB and recompile all back-end programs.
Summary:
- new way of computing credit
- "reliable host" mechanism is per app version
- "host punishment" mechanism is per app version
- adjustment of wu.rsc_fpops_est provides the
equivalent of per app version DCF
- max jobs in progress is now per app
- max jobs per RPC is now per app
TODO:
- reliable mechanism:
- populate and use host_app_version.error_rate
- populate host_app_version.turnaround
- host punishment:
- populate host_app_version.max_jobs_per_day
- populate host_app_version.n_jobs_today
- use app.max_jobs_per_day_init
- job limits:
- use app.max_jobs_in_progress, max_gpu_jobs_in_progress
- use app.max_jobs_per_rpc
- adjust wu.rsc_fpops_est
- remove old credit stuff

The incremental approach was bogus.
New approach:

app_version: maintain an explicit list of update samples
for both PFC and credit.
When the validator flushes its app_version cache,
do careful updates.
Note: when using double fields in careful updates,
you can't test for equality. Use abs(new-old) < 1e-N

- scheduler and validator: distinguish between
1) peak FLOPS (based on benchmarks or GPU attributes).
This does not change over time.
It's not adjusted on the basis of statistics.
It's not affected by wu.rsc_fpops_est.
It can be compared across projects.
versus
2) projected FLOPS: the scheduler's best guess as to what will satisfy
X * elapsed_time = wu.rsc_fpops_est;
this is used to make server-side runtime estimates,
and it's sent to the client and used for its runtime estimates.
It may be based on the (host, app version) elapsed time average.
My checkin [21153] mistakently confounded these two.
Notes:
1) app_plan() now must return both peak and projected FLOPS.
2) result.flops_estimate stores peak FLOPS
3) the <flops> field in app_info.xml files should be
projected FLOPS. But its accuracy is not important;
it's not used once the server has statistics
for the (host, app version)

- server: change the following from per-host to per-(host, app version):
- daily quota mechanism
- reliable mechanism (accelerated retries)
- "trusted" mechanism (adaptive replication)
- scheduler: enforce host scale probation only for apps with
host_scale_check set.
- validator: do scale probation on invalid results
(need this in addition to error and timeout cases)
- feeder: update app version scales every 10 min, not 10 sec
- back-end apps: support --foo as well as -foo for options
Notes:
- If you have, say, cuda, cuda23 and cuda_fermi plan classes,
a host will have separate quotas for each one.
That means it could error out on 100 jobs for cuda_fermi,
and when its quota goes to zero,
error out on 100 jobs for cuda23, etc.
This is intentional; there may be cases where one version
works but not the others.
- host.error_rate and host.max_results_day are deprecated
TODO:
- the values in the app table for limits on jobs in progress etc.
should override rather than config.xml.
Implementation notes:
scheduler:
process_request():
read all host_app_versions for host at start;
Compute "reliable" and "trusted" for each one.
write modified records at end
get_app_version():
add "reliable_only" arg; if set, use only reliable versions
skip over-quota versions
Multi-pass scheduling: if have at least one reliable version,
do a pass for jobs that need reliable,
and use only reliable versions.
Then clear best_app_versions cache.
Score-based scheduling: for need-reliable jobs,
it will pick the fastest version,
then give a score bonus if that version happens to be reliable.
When get back a successful result from client:
increase daily quota
When get back an error result from client:
impose scale probation
decrease daily quota if not aborted
Validator:
when handling a WU, create a vector of HOST_APP_VERSION
parallel to vector of RESULT.
Pass it to assign_credit_set().
Make copies of originals so we can update only modified ones
update HOST_APP_VERSION error rates
Transitioner:
decrease quota on timeout
