- Deprecated the bad hash function used for the
upload/download directory hierarchies.
It wasn't uniform.
Use MD5 instead.
Kept the old one around for a the time being.
dir_hier_path() and dir_hier_url() take a new arg
saying whether to use new or old hash.
The file_deleter and validator try the new hash, then the old.

- Bug Fix: fix crashing bug when running the old gui and new gui
side by side
- Bug Fix: Fix sync bug in new gui related to how the number of
rows were being calculated
- Bug Fix: Remove the explict call to freeze/thaw which was causing
the messages tab to flicker even when the data has not changed.
- Bug Fix: On Windows systems that support tooltip bubbles, don't
populate the regular tooltip field as it will appear before
the bubble request and makes the taskbar applet appear
ugly
- Bug Fix: The new gui should enforce closing down the core client
when it launches the core client, we were using the wxWidget
framework to do this, but the call to wxProcess::Exists causes
an assert on Windows if the process doesn't exist. And sometimes
crashes in a release build.
- Bug Fix: When syncing the views cache make sure there is at least
one item to syncronize, otherwise we'll reference a NULL pointer
and blow up. This fixes the crashing bug when you startup and
shutdown the core client in the background.

lockfile: replace calls to exit() by boinc_finish() + make
boinc_finish() remove the lockfile
graphics-eventloop: some re-structuring and simplification to
make handling of glut-exits/abort-signals more robust. Eric,

Bruce 8 Jan 2005
In order to coordinate better with David, I am doing a slightly
premature checkin of modifications to scheduling locality. The
basic idea is to provide a simple notification mechanism to the
project, so that if no work is currently available for a given
data file, there is an opportunity to make such work. This is
controlled by an additional tag in config.xml, of the form:
<locality_scheduling_wait_period> N </locality_scheduling_wait_period>
where N is some number of seconds. If this new tag is absent,
then the locality scheduler behaves as before.
The modification to behavior happens in send_results_for_file().
This is the function that queries the database to see if there are
unsent results available for a given (large) data file on the
host. Previously, if such results are not found the scheduler
gives up and tries sending other results. With this modification,
if N is nonzero, then if no results are found the scheduler
touches a file with the same name as the host's data file, in a
directory
PROJECT_ROOT/locality_scheduling/need_work/
The scheduler then sleeps for N seconds, and makes one additional
attempt to find suitable unsent results. The idea is that in this
interval, the project has an opportunity to make additional WU for
this file, which the transitioner can convert to unsent
results. [Note, the transaction for the first query is completed
before the sleep(N), and a new transaction is initiated
afterwards. So there is no 'sleep within a transaction'.] This
delay allows the project to make additional workunits suitable for
the host's existing data files.
In addition, if the project determines that NO further workunits
can be made for a given data file, then the project can touch a
file with the same name as the input data file, in a directory
PROJECT_ROOT/locality_scheduling/no_work_available/
If the scheduler finds this warning then it assumes that the
project can not manufacture additional WU for this data file and
skips the 'notify, sleep, query again' sequence above. Of course
it still does the initial query, so if the transitioner has made
some new results for an existing (old) WU, they will get picked
up.
This mechanism is robust in the sense that if the signals fail for
any reason, or (say) the WU are not converted into unsent results
quickly enough by the transitioner, or if they are snapped up by
some other host, then the scheduler simply proceeds as with its
current unmodified behavior and nothing goes wrong. In other
words, the signals can be ignored at any time and for any time
without adverse consequences.
TODO: further testing.

sched_locality.C
David 8 Jan 2005
Some changes related to locality scheduling:
- Factored Bruce's new code into a separate function,
make_more_work_for_file()
- Remove the 'id>X' stuff from queries.
Assuming that work is fairly homogeneous
(i.e. no results are rejected because of resource requirements)
this is not needed.
If a result has already been sent,
it won't qualify for the select anyway.
- Add a 'workunitid<>X' clause to the queries.
This is to make the process of enforcing the
one_result_per_wu_per_user rule more efficient.
If the rule is not in effect, X is zero (so always true)
- If two consecutive select queries return the same result,
break out of the loop (avoid undesired looping)
- Use a for i=1,100 loop instead of a while(1) loop
around the work-sending logic,
to avoid infinite loops just in case
sched/
sched_locality.C
David 8 Jan 2005
- Implement the <locality_scheduling_wait_period> element in config.xml
If present, this tells the scheduler how long to sleep
between requesting more work for a file
and looking for it (and giving up if it's not there)
If absent, the scheduler doesn't request more work unit generation.

David 10 Jan 2005
- locality scheduling changes:
Changed the algorithms a bit to avoid lots of DB queries
Invariant: for a given file/user pair,
results are sent in order of increasing ID
(i.e. the result sent is that with the smallest ID
among all those that CAN be sent).
This ensures that:
- the result for given WU will be sent around the same time
send_results_for_file():
1) of results for this file sent to this user,
find the one R with largest ID
2) find unsent result R2 for this file with next ID greater than R,
and (if one result per user per WU) different workunitid than
ALL previous results sent to this user.
3) if need more results, set R = R2 and go to 2)
send_new_file_work():
min_id = 0
while need more work
find unsent result R with id>min_id of least ID
min_id = R.id
(Note: this is necessary to preserve the invariant)
Changed make_more_work_for_file() to return zero for success
(BOINC convention)

more locality sched changes (with Bruce Allen)
- Added a notion of "working set" of files.
If a host doesn't have a file, the scheduler picks a
random entry from the working set and tries to send it
work from that file.
The project must supply a daemon program that maintains the working set
(could be the same as the work generator)
- Added config.locality_scheduling_send_timeout.
If any unsent result is older than this,
send it to the first eligible host
- If a host already has files, randomize their order
- Integrate work-generator invocation in send_results_for_file()
- If can't send a result because of no app_version, give up

Bruce 12 Jan 2005
more locality sched changes.
- bug fix 1, trivial, n % 0 generates FPE if no files.
- bug fix 2, subtle. In the deterministic hunt to find
the next unsent result, the comparison of the result name must be
done with the lexically maximum result name constructed from the
given filename. Eg, if one needs name>FILE_ZZZZ...Z where
Z=0xff (is this charset independent??) and the total name length
is 255 (or is it 254??).
- David, I'll clean out some of the debugging scaffolding in a few
more days, when I get some confidence that there are not other
problems to fix! Please read embedded comments/questions in code.
- Some more comemnts added later. We do sometimes get non-zero
return values from possibly_send_result(). I think that this is
because you've failed to match up the start_transaction and
commit_transaction pairs. Be careful: sleeps AND modifies the
DB. Right now I am too tired to fix this without making it worse.
Your turn.
- A few other comments. Currently, I am 'advertising' filenames
returned by get_working_set_filename() for TWO types of files:
(1) those for which I can make more work
(2) those for which I can NOT make more work, but where you have
not flagged with flag_for_possible_removal().
I am not sure that I understand the intent of
flag_for_possible_removal(). You surely are not guaranteeing
that no results will ever appear in the future for these files
(outstanding results might fail). So what is my WU generator
supposed to do with flag_for_possible_removal? Is (2) above
correct?
- Finally, I have not yet seen a SINGLE instance of a
flag_for_possible_removal. Is the logic right?

Bruce 13 Jan 2005
- Various efforts to fix CVS 'loginfo' file so that we get auto
mailings of changes to the top level directory. The main problem
is that one can't use "^boinc[ ]" or "^boinc\ " or
"^boinc\#20" as a regex to try and match the name of the top
level directory with no trailing slash. What a mess!
- More work on sched_locality.C. Note that the 'wacky' warning is
actually not impossible. Consider the following scenario: WU A
has result 1 and WU B has result 2. These are both sent to a
host. Some time later, result 1 fails and the transitioner
creates a new result, result 3 for WU A. Then the host requests
a new result. The maximum result already sent to the host is 2.
The next unsent result (sorted by ID) is #3. But since it is
for WU A, and since the host has already gotten a result for WU
A, it's infeasible. So I think this is only wacky if
!one_wu_per_result_per_host.
- David, I simplified the inner part of send_results_for_file()
somewhat. I can't see the need/use for the bool bool
in_working_set argument. If I have really screwed the pooch
please revert.

David 13 Jan 2005
- Core client: when get a workunit from scheduler,
clear errors (e.g. download failures)
for all files associated with this WU
(this is down in a new function WORKUNIT::clear_errors())
Without this, if a file common to multiple WUs had a download
failure, all WUs would fail until user resets project!!
- Giant bug in HTTP file transfer:
If a network connection failed in the middle,
it wasn't being distinguished from a completed download;
the file size would be checked at the PERS_FILE_XFER level,
and it would get a "bad file size" fatal error.
Fix: when get EOF from a network connection reading HTTP reply,
compare the bytes transferred with the content-length
from HTTP header.
If not equal, classify it as an error.
This will cause higher levels to view it as a transient error,
and restart the download later.
- PERS_FILE_XFER::poll():
the check for actual file size == desired file size
was inexplicably being done even for file uploads,
and even in cases where another error had occurred.
Do it only for download success cases.

- modified DB_BASE::enumerate() so that it returns:
- zero if returning a row
- ERR_DB_NOT_FOUND if reached end of result set
- other values indicated DB errors (e.g. lost connection to server)
Strange as it may seem, until now we didn't have a way of
knowing that enumerate() had errored out.
As a result, e.g., db_dump would happily generate
a zero-entry user or host file
if the DB happened to disconnect during the select.
- changed db_dump.C to check error returns from enumerate(),
and exit() on DB failure

- Additional work on locality scheduling.
(a) make DB queries more efficient using name>'FILE__' and
name<'FILE__~' rather than name like 'FILE__%'
(b) Set 'no remaining work for this file' flag correctly
by making a DB scan if needed.
One can show that this is the 'cheapest'
reliable place to put this scan.
(c) Modify deterministic algorithm for finding unsent results
so that instead of starting with FILE="" and scanning forward
over all files, it starts at a random place in file space,
scans cyclicly to the end, and then from "" to the start point.
(d) Satisfy work request if possible.
Don't terminate sending work until none left that is feasible,
or request satisfed.
(e) If a new file is needed, first pick file associated with unsent
results which are more than 2 hours old.
Note: need to make this a user-configurable option,
and add some random +- slack.
For the record, here is the current locality scheduler logic.
I will update the docs once this is a bit better tested and
stable.
(1) If there is an (one) unsent result which is older than
(1) config.locality_scheduling_send_timeout (7 days) and is
(1) feasible for the host, sent it.
(2) If we did send a result in the previous step, then send any
(2) additional results that are feasible for the same input file.
(3) If additional results are needed, step through input files on
(3) the host. For each, if there are results that are feasible for
(3) the host, send them. If there are no results that are feasible
(3) for the host, delete the input file from the host.
(4) If additional results are needed, and there is (one) unsent
(4) result which is older than 2 hours and is feasible for the
(4) host, send it.
(5) If we did send a result in the previous step, then send any
(5) additional results that are feasible for the same input file.
(6) If additional results are needed, select an input file name at
(6) random from the current input file working set advertised by
(6) the WU generator. If there are results for this input file
(6) that are feasible for this host, send them.
(7) If additional results are needed, carry out an expensive,
(7) deterministic search for ANY results that are feasible for the
(7) host. This search starts from a random filename advertised by
(7) the WU generator, but continues cyclicly to cover ALL results
(7) for ALL files. If a feasible result is found, send it. Then
(7) send any additional results that use the same input file. If
(7) there are no feasible results for the host, we are finished:
(7) exit.
(8) If addtional results are needed, return to step 4 above.

- Initial test-version of the moderation system
Please test the current features (deleting posts, moving posts) and see
if this is how it should be done.
The rest is mostly copy-paste work as the same design can be used for
threads as well.
This update includes:
- Deleting posts
- Moving posts
- Sending email notice to post author
- Users cannot edit their posts more than 1 hour after creating them
- Deleted posts are only shown to moderators
- Inversion of $filter_on in getThreads and getPosts (!)
Now the bit means "show deleted posts/threads" and defaults to off
- New special user bitfield
Due to the new special user bitfield you must redefine who is who in your
project. Currently this is done manually (idea for the ops page, anyone?)
This is how the bitfield is used:
1st bit = Moderator
2nd bit = Project Admin
3rd bit = Project dev
4th bit = Project tester
5th bit = Volunteer dev
6th bit = Volunteer tester
7th bit = Project Scientist
So if I'm a project admin and want to be moderator as well, I would
do the following SQL query:

- Patches from Reinhard Prix to fix several problems.
(1) apps being suspended would call boinc_finish(nonzero) and
core client would treat this as app failure. Introduce
a new function boinc_exit() and call that instead.
(2) improvements to GUI build with wxWidgets
(3) improved X event handling loop now ensures that X window
is taken away when window killed.

- Added cross-project IDs for hosts.
This lets statistics sites show work per host, summed over projects.
Implementation:
Hosts generate their own "internal" CPIDs,
using an MD5 of time/domain/IP/disk_free.
This should be unique across that user's hosts.
It's stored in the HOST_INFO structure and sent to server.
The server hashes the internal CPID with the user's email address
and stores the resulting "external" CPID in the host table.
It is included by db_dump in <host> elements.
PROJECT NOTE: if you use this server code you will need
to apply update_1_20_2005() from html/ops/db_update.php to existing DBs

Rom 20 Jan 2005
- Bug Fix: Remove some code that was keeping half of the
check_suspend_activities conditions to be skipped.
NOTE: basically this was causing BOINC to alternate
between suspended mode and non-suspended mode twice
a second because the check for user idle activity
happened after we returned from the function which
means that reason was returning 0, meaning we shouldn't
be suspended.
- Bug Fix: Setting activities_suspended should happen outside
the check for tasks_restarted, since it is used later in
the function, and activities_suspended may not be what
we expect it to be.
- Cleanup: In the idle detection routine save the needed values
to a variable so we can see them as we are steping though
the code, let the optimizer deal with it on release builds.
- Bug Fix: Remove the Modify option in setup, our setup is an
all or nothing deal.
- Bug Fix: Configure setup for automatic upgrades, this requires
the previous MSI databases from the builds we release to
public.
NOTE: I need to talk to David about this a little bit, but
I think it is doable.
- Bug Fix: Fix the screensaver load up problem where it was
taking 60 seconds before the first text was displayed.

- make_work: fixed a basic design problem.
Its main loop creates workunits until the number of
sendable results reaches the "cushion" level.
This worked OK in the old days when creating a workunit
created its results; but these days the transitioner does that.
So make_work would end up creating way more workunits
than it's supposed to.
The fix: estimate how many WUs to create
(based on wu.target_nresults).
Make that many, then sleep for 10 seconds
(give the transitioner a chance to create the results).
- Another problem: the "master WU" used by make_work could
get deleted by file_deleter and db_purge.
Kludgy but effective solution:
change file_deleter and db_purge to ignore WUs whose
name includes "nodelete".
Call your master WU "wu_nodelete".
- change dir_hier_path so that it just prints the pathname of the file,
so you can use it in scripts

- scheduler changes: if host is not getting any work because available
disk space is < 0, delete files which have <sticky> and <report_on_rpc>
set. Note that (1) this deletion simply removes the <sticky> tag, so
file won't be deleted until after all WU that depend upon it are
completed and (2) the mechanism to determine which file to delete
could be improved. TODO: improve messages to hosts which have no file
space and ALSO have no files to delete.
- scheduler changes: locality scheduling. Clean up code which makes a
deterministic search of results to delete. Data files names can not
contain the "~" character!
- modified the send_new_file_work() function to look for unsent work
starting with a random time 6 to 12 hours ago.
- scheduler changes: added a simple debugging mechanism for scheduler
requests/replies. If you touch a file named 'debug_sched' in the project
root, then files called sched_reply_HOSTID_RPCNO and
sched_request_HOSTID_RPCNO will be created
under cgi-bin/ which contain the scheduler replies. You can turn on
this mechanism for some time to study the scheduler replies.
- David, the write() function that I added to SCHEDULER_REQUEST can
probably be done better. It would be nice if all the classes that
this includes an instance of had their own write() functions: it
would make debugging very easy.

- Added functions to read and parse .po translations for the webinterface.
- Changed apps.php to use these new functions as an example.
- Added a tiny example language interface file
- Added language files (that are valid with regards to the interface) for
English and Danish as an example
The script (Apache or whatever webserver is used) must have write-
access to the /languages/compiled directory as well as /languages/. It
will create compiled versions of the interface file and language files the
first time a page is accessed after a new language file or interface file
has been installed.
To output something that can be translated, a page can use:
echo tr(MY_TOKEN);
where MY_TOKEN is the token-name used to identify the text that will be
output. To actually be allowed to write and use MY_TOKEN, the token must
be added to the language interface. The language interface file is simply
a file containing all the valid tokens listed one per line. Adding
MY_TOKEN
to the bottom of the file will make "MY_TOKEN" a valid token.
Whenever you add a new token to the interface you _should_ at least add
the text to the english language file located in
/languages/translations/en.po
This file is used as default language and will be used as fallback in case
a translator for another language does not provide a translation for your
particular token (which especially will be the case when you add a new
token).
You should be able to add comments using a # as the first char in a line -
at least in the .po-files.
Future plans: 1) An expansion for project specific translations which can
be independently maintained by the project.
2) Language selection in user prefs (to override browser defaults)
3) Even better automatic language detection

- Changed the way the core client handles <delete_file_info> elements
in scheduler RPC replies.
Old: clear the FILE_INFO's sticky bit
New: set a FILE_INFO::marked_for_delete flag.
An unreferenced file will be deleted if this flag is set,
regardless of whether the sticky flag is set.
If the marked_for_delete flag is set,
it won't be reported in scheduler RPCs,
even if the report_on_rpc flag is set.
This avoids situations where a server asks the client to delete a file,
but later sends work to that file
because it's reported in an RPC file list

- Improvements to the file deletion mechanism. Now try removing files if
no work was sent to hosts, and available space<0 OR if available space>0
but work was unfeasible because the disk bound requirements of the work
exceeded the available space.
- Added a new config.xml boolean element called 'choose_download_url_by_timezone'
This requires that projects provide a 2-column file in the project root named
'download_servers'. An example is:
3600 http://einstein.aei.mpg.de
-21600 http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu
The first column is offset from UTC in seconds, and the second column is the URL
of the download server. When enabled, the scheduler will replace the download
path for data and executables by a list of download URLs, ordered by proximity
to the host's timezone. The download path must start with the
BOINC default download/ and the different download servers must have identical
file paths under download/, in other words they must be mirrored.
- Really exciting news, David: I have finally gotten emacs to obey your
indentations and formatting conventions, apart from doing this:

- Scheduler: make things more uniform between locality
and non-locality (work array) scheduling.
Both cases use the following functions:
1) call wu_is_feasible() to see if the host has enough
disk, memory, and CPU speed to handle a result.
(added this to locality scheduling)
2) call add_result_to_reply() when you decide to send a result.
This updates database and SCHED_REPLY.
- If using locality scheduling, add_result_to_reply() doesn't
decrement wreq.disk_available,
since several results may involve the same file.
BRUCE: we need to decrement disk_available in
the locality scheduling code.
- add disk space check to wu_is_feasible()
(and removed it from scan_work_array())
- simplified the args of wu_is_feasible()
- work_needed(): if wreq.disk_available is <= zero,
set the wreq.insufficient_disk flag and return false.
NOTE: this and wu_is_feasible() are now the only places

- The critically important "work_req_seconds" field of a scheduler request
was not documented anywhere.
The units of this request are "normalized CPU seconds":
the request specifies the number of wall-clock seconds
the work should take to finish using 1 CPU on the host,
taking into account resource share, on_frac, and active_frac.
- client side:
document;
take on_frac into account
- server side:
document;
use wall-clock instead of cpu estimate for "seconds filled";
take on_frac into account in wallclock estimate.
TODO: it would be simpler if the request just specified a number of FLOPs .
That way the server wouldn't have to
know about on_frac, resource share etc.

- Change the way user cross-project ID is maintained.
OLD: when the client sends a scheduler RPC to project P,
it sends the largest CPID among projects with same
email hash as P.
This is saved in P's database and sent in future RPC replies.
Problem (pointed out by John McLeod):
A user's CPID can change whenever he joins a new project.
Statistics web sites don't have permanent IDs for a user.
NEW: when the client sends a scheduler RPC to project P,
it sends the CPID of the project for which user_create_time
is least (i.e. the project with the oldest account).
Project URL is used as a tie-breaker.
- Fixed a bug where user_create_time wasn't being
parsed correctly from server reply.

-Unfortunately on some 32 bit systems there is a problem with wx-widgets
configuring itself for largefile support. On these systems largefile
support breaks C++ compiles by defining away many of the C standard library
routines that should reside in namespace std::. In order to get around
problem first we have to check the largefile support macros. Later we will
use the macro SAH_LARGEFILE_BREAKS_CXX to check for the breakage. If
if breakage is found LARGEFILE_BREAKS_CXX is defined in config.h. This
define is checked in std_fixes.h and the appropriate functions are defined
in order to solve the problem. (These functions were already in place)
Because these defines affect the behavior of standard library headers,
std_fixes.h is being included from config.h
-Added AM_CPPFLAGS, AM_CFLAGS, and AM_CXXFLAGS (for flags common to all
compiles) so they will be defined in all Makefile.am files.
-Put #ifdef _cplusplus around the C++ specific items in std_fixes.h so it
may be included from C source files.

Now properly reduce the disk size resource requirements
of a WU being sent if the file is already on the host,

DAVID: please check that reply_copy.wus.pop_back() is right.

This can also be used in the future for more intelligent
file deletion schemes.
- Make warnings to upgrade old clients have low priority until
3 days before deadline. Then high priority.

Fixes to get server components compiling under FCGI.
- Added check for _USING_FCGI_ in std_fixes.h in order to prevent
redefinition of stdlib functions with LARGEFILE_BREAKS_CXX is defined.
- Because FCGI doesn't have fscanf() and fgetc() that work on FCGI_FILE*,
the FILE pointers for these functions need to be wrapped in a call to
FCGI_ToFILE(). In the case where FCGI isn't being used we define
FCGI_ToFILE(x) to (x).

- There was a problem using dynamic allocations (with new) in many of the
graphics classes. In many places the code was written assuming default
values of 0, especially for pointers and booleans. While that's true
in the case of a static instance with the default constructors, it not
generally true with dynamic allocation unless the default constructor
is replaced. Therefore I've added constructors in the following
classes/structs: MOVING_TEXT_PANEL, COLOR, PROGRESS, PROGRESS_2D,
TEXTURE_DESC, REDUCED_ARRAY.
- This will be a problem is any are used from C code unless the
constructors declarations are enclosed in "#ifdef __cplusplus" blocks.
- There was also a problem that showed up under Windows when dynamic
allocations were used. app_graphics_resize() gets called before
app_graphics_init(). This usually results in a crash since classes
haven't yet been constructed. To work around this I've added a case
for WM_CREATE in the WndProc() which calls app_graphics_init. Under
windows this will get passed before WM_SIZE does.

- Sched locality change: if the host does not have enough memory to satisfy
a work request, do not search for or send further work. This is the same
way that disk space limits are handled. This is necessary since otherwise
a host with small memory will endlessly trigger the WU generator, churning
out infeasible WUs.
- Added boolean arg to host_has_file() following David A's advice. This
eliminates the 'expensive' copy of a large data structure. The bool arg
makes host_has_file() skip the final WU in the vector in hunting for a file.
- Better log message for setting coredump size.

- Scheduler changes (global):
- Ignore CPU limitations and resource share entirely, IF
a host:
(1) has no work for this project
(2) has no results in this sched reply
This ensures that any host that wants to do work will at least
get *something*. It liberalizes slightly David A's approach
from 14 Feb 2005. Eliminate use_time_stats from wreq structure.
- Scheduler changes (locality scheduling only):
- Improve return value info for some functions.
- Modify send_old_work() to accept a t_min < t < t_max time range
- New sched locality algorithm to send work to hosts with no files.
Send oldest result in the time range A < t < B where
B = locality_scheduling_timeout/2
A = B - rand*locality_scheduling_timeout/2
Here rand is a uniformly distributed random number in [0,1].
- When an unsent result is older than locality_scheduling_timeout, no
longer send it to the FIRST host that requests work. Instead send
it to the first host which has a connection speed > 100kb/s.
- Fix file deletion. Previously we were deleting files from hosts
when they got no work for that file. But this might have been
because the work was infeasible (cpu time). Now delete files
from host ONLY if there is no work remaining for that file.

- More sensible use of request_delay. If a host contacts the
scheduler, and fails to get work because there are N secs
of pending work, then send a delay request of min(3600, N/5) secs.
Otherwise the same host was coming back every hour, without being able
to get additional work.
- Implemented by adding a method set_delay() to
SCHEDULER_REQUEST. This sets the delay to the maximum of the
previous requested delay or the current requested delay. The
delay is NEVER set longer than two days.

- Added security checks to forum moderation features
- Added project specific translation ability to the translator:
To use this you simply add language files and tokens in the
project specific language directory:
/html/languages/project_specific_translations/
There's a dummy en.po file there to show how it is done.
You use the tr(TOKEN)-function to get your token translated.
It is possible to override the BOINC-provided translation by
redefining the TOKEN in the project specific translation files.
- Changed the translator to use the project default language as interface
instead of having to explicitly write everything in a seperate file.
Therefore you do no longer have to add tokens to the
language_interface-file.

Fixed a bug in locality scheduling. When old work was being sent,
the daily_result_quota constraint was not being enforced.
Normally this constraint is enforced in the work_needed()
function. However note that the critical send_work() function
NEVER checks work_needed() [DAVID, perhaps it should?] before
calling send_work_locality() or scan_work_array(). Then, when
send_work_locality() was called, it would in turn call
send_old_work() immediately, WITHOUT checking to see if
work_needed() was TRUE. This allowed the daily_result_quota
constraint to be broken.
Possible fixes included:
test work_needed() before calling send_old_work()
test work_needed() WITHIN send_old_work()
test work_needed() within possibly_send_result()
test work_needed() within wu_is_infeasible()
Conclusion: work is ONLY sent by the function
possibly_send_result() which is called in two places in
sched_locality.C: once in send_results_for_file() and once in
send_old_work(). The first of these DOES check the value of
work_needed(). The second does NOT. So I added a check of
work_needed() within send_old_work(). A also added
added another check of work_needed() at the top of
send_results_for_file() BEFORE any DB access is done. It might be
better to put this test of work_needed() lower down (within
possibly_send_result()) or higher up (where send_old_work())
is called. I am not sure. David, I'd appreciate your advice.

When host returns an error result, or a result times out,
decrement max_results_day (but not below 1).
When the host return a success result,
double max_results_day (but not above config.daily_result_quota)

If you attached to a project and give a URL like "a.b.c//",
two bad things happen:
1) canonicalize_master_url() strips off everything before the //,
leaving an empty URL
2) it will write an account file account_.xml
and make an entry in the client state file
3) next time the core client starts up, it errors out
trying to create the project directory.
Fixes:
- canonicalize_master_url(): check before "://", not "//"
- is_account_file(): tighten up.
Old: anything starting with account_ is considered an account file.
New: must match account_A.B.xml where A and B are nonempty
- invalid_url():
Old: must match http://X, X nonempty
New: must match http://X.Y/, X and Y nonempty

and SETI@home application using XCODE IDE on Macintosh.
Removed Eric Heien's old boinc.pbroj which is confusing
on CVS because it is a bundle, which looks like a directory
to CVS. New boinc.pbproj bundle is checked in zipped.
- Changes for Mac GUI BOINC manager and core client.
Major rework of XCode project file.
BOINC Manager has standard Mac application bundle with icon.
Client doesn't ask for User ID or Project URL on command line.
Added code for Mac to determine idle time (user inactivity).
Core Client is embedded in BOINC Manager application bundle.
BOINC Manager sets working directory to
~/Application Support/Boinc_Data/
and then launches embedded Core Client.

by then the username and password have been recorded in

- Overdue checkins on a bunch of minor scheduler code. Some that is
E@H specific is now included (but protected by
#ifdef EINSTEIN_AT_HOME
to make it simpler for me to maintain consistency with BOINC cvs.
- Added project-specific unacceptable_os() function for rejecting hosts.
- Transitioner and scheduler now initalize host.max_results_day correctly
in database under all circumstances.
- Browser requests are now correctly identifed (REQUEST_METHO=="GET") and
properly redirected. This was broken. David, please see comment near
one of the probable_user_browser=true in handle_request.C. I think
something is wrong here (or I am missing the point!).
- More info about requests is logged
- If the scheduler hangs (incoming request incomplete) it will normally be
killed by Apache after a timeout. But this happens silently. So I now
install a signal handler and catch this SIGTERM. In this case an
error message is logged and all open files are flushed before exit(1)ing.
- If IO is passed through files, check that request length and content length
agree and log a message if they do NOT.
- active_frac not correctly reported by 4.19 and earlier core clients.
Adjust for this in estimating wallclock execution times.
- All messages sent to user ALSO get logged to cgi.log

- Well now that I've fully tested and deployed BOINC via Active Directory,
I found something wrong. When deploying BOINC to the computer via
Active Directory the installation runs as the computer account when
copying files so files can be read off a network share, but when we get
to the CopyAccountFiles custom action setup would fail since LOCALSYSTEM
only has access to the local machine.
The solution is to include the account files and any other configuration
file as part of the BOINC MSI transform which needs to be created in
order to populate the global properties for deployment. The setup
documentation will be updated to reflect this change.
- Bug Fix: Attempting to install BOINC in a managed environment would fail
since ALLUSERS is automatically set to 1 for any installation type. So
if we detect that we are being installed in a managed environment
ignore the ALLUSERS value.
Menu items are still installed for all users though, that'll be fixed
a little later.

- Fixed bug where clients report a result CPU time as zero,
even though the result used a lot of CPU.
The basic problem was in the API: the final call to
update_app_progress() (from boinc_finish())
was trying to send a status message.
But some fraction of the time the message slot was full
(core client hadn't read previous message)
so this message wouldn't get delivered.
Core client was using checkpoint_cpu_time as final CPU,
so (for applications that never checkpoint)
the core client would never get a nonzero checkpoint_cpu_time.
I fixed this at both ends, i.e. if you either use a new core client
with old apps, or use new apps with existing core clients,
the problem will go away.
Fixes:
1) API: retry sending final status message a few times w/ sleep
2) core client: use current_cpu_time rather than checkpoint_cpu_time
as the result's final_cpu_time.
- core client: show current directory on startup

core client: if can't bind to 1043, bind to 31416
BOINC mgr: if can't connect to 31416, connect to 1043
If something is bound to 31416 we're screwed.

- Supports "dual ID" language files (ie those files that have

Please note the use of lower- and uppercase letters.
- You can now override the automatic selection by the use of
a cookie named "lang". A page for setting this cookie has also

- The automatic selection now searches for all the languages that
the user's browser specifies before using the project default
(ie. it no longer uses only the first language that the browser
gives it in the string).
- Made some small additions to en.po so that the language select page
can display the correct names of the languages instead of their
ISO names: "Danish (Dansk)" instead of "da".
- Added some more logging so that missing tokens will be printed to
the logfile as well as on screen.

- Maintain the "main host venue" in a more robust way.
(Reminder: the "main host venue" is the host venue of the
project that supplied the most recent global prefs.
Host venues for each project are stored in account files.
The global prefs file identifies the source project.)
Old: main host venue is stored in the client state file,
and updated only when a scheduler RPC returns
global prefs with a new host venue.
Problem: if it's missing from the client state file
it may never get set to the correct value.
New: on startup, the global prefs file is parsed once
to obtain the source project.
Then main host venue is computed, based on the source
project and the host venue specified in its account file.
Then the global prefs file is parsed again, using this venue.
- user web: add option for columnar prefs display.
Append "&cols=1" to prefs.php URL

- BOINC manager: new "statistics" tab (from Jens Breitbart)
Here's Jens' summary of changes:
- Client
* Statistics are stored on a daily basis
~ Statistics := {User & host total credit, user & host avg. credit}
~ max. 30 days are stored
* Statistics are gathered after the client has contacted the scheduler
~ No extra call to the scheduler is made, just information already
provided are stored
* Added support for the RPC call "<get_statistics/>"
~ Answer include all saved statistics from all projects
~ Syntax of the answer:
<statistics>
<project_statistics>
<master_url>%s</master_url>
<daily_statistics>
<day>%f</day>
<user_total_credit>%f</user_total_credit>
<user_expavg_credit>%f</user_expavg_credit>
<host_total_credit>%f</host_total_credit>
<host_expavg_credit>%f</host_expavg_credit>
</daily_statistics> <- repeated for each day
</project_statistics> <- repeated for each project
</statistics>
* Statistics are saved in files called "statistics_master_url.xml"
~ Syntax is similar to the one shown above except every project is
saved in its own file
~ Files are saved after every scheduler reply
~ Files are read at client start
~ Files are deleted on project detach
- Manager
* Added a statistic tab
~ Drawing the graph on a wxPanel using the paint event.
~ wxPlottWindow not working very reliable...
~ Design is looking quite simple
* Using the RPC "<get_statistics/>" to get the Information from the client

- Core client: don't do SS poll more than once per second
- Core client: don't do SS reset on each CPU resched
(no reason to start/stop SS if same app running)
- Get rid of SS_STATUS_RESTARTREQUEST,
which as far as I can tell involved the core client asking
the screensaver to ask it to do graphics again.
Instead, the core client just tells another app to start doing SSG.
It hangs on to the last GRAPHICS_MSG
(workstation/desktop will be the same)
- Got rid of SS_STATUS_NOTGRAPHICSCAPABLE

- Bug Fix: We stoped ack'ing the MODE_UNSUPPORTED from a science application

need to be processed from get_next_graphics_capable_app().
- Bug Fix: Adjust the logic of get_next_graphics_capable_app() so that even
if the graphics mode was MODE_WINDOW or MODE_HIDE_GRAPHICS before the
start of the screensaver, we still factor in what it's current
graphics_mode_acked in case it has been changed to MODE_UNSUPPORTED

- Bug Fix: Explicitly declare the network connection thread as a joinable
thread, by default wxWidgets defines the default behavior as detached
which handles its own destruction.
NOTE: The documentation also states that on Windows all threads are
joinable, so in the end, the crashes were related to me attempting to
cleanup the thread when it had already deleted itself, which caused a

- Attempt to fix the situation where:
1) user merges hosts; hosts with lower IDs are folded
into host with maximal ID, then deleted
2) If host's client_state.xml file still has one of the
lower IDs, then the next time it contacts the scheduler,
the host lookup fails and a new host record is created,
which defeats the purpose of the merge.
Solution:
- When merge hosts, don't delete lower-ID records.
Instead, change them to "zombie" state, in which:
- userid is zero
- rpc_seqno is ID of new host record
- scheduler: if host is zombie, follow link to new host,
send back its ID to client

Also move file size checking logic here.
PERS_FILE_XFER::start_xfer(): use FILE_INFO::verify_downloaded_file()

rather than doing a bunch of checks manually
PERS_FILE_XFER::poll(): don't check size on completion of xfer.

- file_upload_handler: when responding to a request for the
file length, check first that the file is not already
in open (locked) by another file_upload_handler. If the
file IS open (locked), then do NOT hand back the file length.
Instead return a transient error. This will prevent
transmission of upload data starting at the wrong offset.
- file_upload_handler: ignore <data_server_request>tag
- To help understand when/why multiple file_upload_handlers
are trying to write to the same file, set default log level
to DEBUG. Also log messages at level CRITICAL if there is
an attempt to write to a locked file. We may want to change
this level to DEBUG in the future, if this turns out to be
'normal' TCP buffering of data between host and server.

- rework of file_upload_handler. I learned that is it not
reliable to use flock/lockf/fnctl file locking with buffered
IO. This is because the stream libraries might unexpectedly
open/close/dup file descriptors on you. So I have modified
the file write/append functions to use raw IO rather than
buffered IO. In doing this I also found and fixed some small
bugs. There is no guarantee that one can mix flock/lockf/fnctl
file locking so I have settled on fnctl since it is POSIX and
gives the most control.

- Moderators can view hidden threads if going direct by ID
- Made the special user feature aware of "holes" in the bitfield

- Added a 5 sec delay to userw.php in the case where the user does not

Consider the limit
as diff->0, using the first-order Taylor expansion of
exp(x)=1+x+O(x^2).
So to the lowest order in diff:
weight = 1 - diff ln(2) / half_life
so one has
avg += (1-weight)*(work/diff_days)
avg += [diff*ln(2)/half_life] * (work*SECONDS_PER_DAY/diff)

- bug fix so that Unix hosts report their timezones correctly
taking into account the effect of DST on their localtime.
NOTE: hosts that lacked a gmt offset in the tm structure (System V
with no BSD extensions) had the WRONG SIGN for the timezone.
This is now fixed. These host types (AIX, Cygwin?) will now have a
change in sign in their timezone, making it consistent with other
Unix hosts and with Win32 hosts.
- Note that with these changes we adopt the convention that the database
timezone value is the (Local Standard Time) - (UTC time). This
quantity only depends upon spatial location on the earth's surface and
is NOT a function of time.
- Change php functions to correctly describe timezone field.

- Modified the BOINC_GETSOCKOPT_TYPE macro so it determines the proper type
of parameter 5 to getsockopt() by using the compiler.
The macro was in danger of becoming an ever expanding list of
case statements, since some platforms
use socklen_t, others use size_t, and still others use int. Some aren't
even consistent from OS rev to OS rev.
- A macro BOINC_SOCKLEN_T is set in config.h to indicate the proper type.
This is typedef to be boinc_socklen_t in lib/network.h. The special cases
for __APPLE__ and WIN32 can probably be removed at a later time. Places
where socklen_t was used have been changed to boinc_socklen_t.
