Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing is een platform voor distributed computing en is voor Linux, Mac OS X, Unix en Windows beschikbaar. Van dit platform maakt een aantal gridprojecten gebruik, zoals SETI@home, Rosetta@home, Leiden Classical en Hydrogen@Home. Voor meer informatie over het hoe en wat van Boinc verwijzen we jullie naar deze pagina. De ontwikkelaars hebben enkele dagen geleden een nieuwe versie voor de verschillende platformen uitgebracht met 6.6.36 als het versienummer. De bijbehorende lijst met veranderingen ziet er als volgt uit:
Version 6.6.36:Version 6.6.35:
- client: read app_info.xml's AFTER scanning GPUs. Otherwise we'll discard all GPU apps and results.
Version 6.6.34:
- MGR: CBOINCClientManager::ProcessExists?() finds the process by name if we don't have a pid (Mac, Linux) or process HANDLE (Windows). On Mac and Linux, it returns the pid if the process was found.
- MGR: Use code like get_client_mutex() to determine if client is running. New CBOINCClientManager::KillClient?() uses process name to kill client if we don't have a pid (Mac, Linux) or process HANDLE (Windows). NOTE: Windows implementation not yet finished.
- MGR: Implement CBOINCClientManager::KillClient?() and IsBOINCRunning() for Windows. NOTE: I have confirmed that the "ps -a -x -c -o command,pid" command as used in IsBOINCRunning() should works in Ubuntu under VMWare, but it needs to be tested on other Linux platforms.
- lib: Fix FILE_LOCK::unlock() to reset fd to -1 so FILE_LOCK works correctly with repeated calls.
- MGR: Fix compiler error on Windows.
- lib: Fix compiler error on Windows. *Mac MGR: In Async RPC logic, use posix mutexes and conditions instead of wxWidgets implementations on the Mac, as this appears to fix an intermittent hang in wxCondition::Wait().
- lib: FILE_LOCK::lock() makes lockfile group-writable so both client and manager can create and write it under sandbox security.
Version 6.6.33:
- client: if scheduler request didn't request work, don't report 0 tasks
- client: show "est. delay" correctly in work fetch debug msgs
- client: show times correctly in rr_sim debug msgs
- client: in "requesting new tasks" msg, say what resources we're requesting (if there's more than CPU)
- client: estimated delay was possibly being calculated incorrectly because of roundoff error
- client: add a 1e-6 slop factor in deciding if a resource is fully utilized.
- client: when parsing app_info.xml, make sure coprocessors are present. fixes #911
Version 6.6.32:
- client: include plan class in other_result list in sched request (for resource-specific jobs-in-progress limit)
Version 6.6.31:
- MGR: fix display problem when talking to old clients
- MGR: In Async RPC logic, change calling order for wxCondition and wxMutex from to to be consistent with examples in literature, hoping this might fix an intermittent hang in wxConition::Wait().
- client: fixed nasty bug that caused GPU jobs to crash on startup when they're preempting another GPU job. The problem was as follows:
- job A is chosen to preempt job B
- we tell job B to quit, and initialize job A but don't start it; however, we set if scheduler state to SCHEDULED (rather than UNINITIALIZED)
- job B exits, and we start job A. Since its state is not UNITIALIZED, we don't set up its slot dir.
- job A runs in an empty slot dir, doesn't find its files, and bombs out.
- client: add option (prints messages about allocation of slots, creating/removing files in slot dirs).
