Update to SLURM 2.6.4
Based on work of Jason Bacon published in WIP.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.4
========================
 -- Fixed sh5util to print its usage.
 -- Corrected commit f9a3c7e4e8ec.
 -- Honor ntasks-per-node option with exclusive node allocations.
 -- sched/backfill - Prevent invalid memory reference if bf_continue option is
    configured and slurm is reconfigured during one of the sleep cycles or if
    there are any changes to the partition configuration or if the normal
    scheduler runs and starts a job that the backfill scheduler is actively
    working on.
 -- Update man pages information about acct-freq and JobAcctGatherFrequency
    to reflect only the latest supported format.
 -- Minor document update to include note about PrivateData=Usage for the
    slurm.conf when using the DBD.
 -- Expand information reported with DebugFlags=backfill.
 -- Initiate jobs pending to run in a reservation as soon as the reservation
    becomes active.
 -- Purged expired reservation even if it has pending jobs.
 -- Corrections to calculation of a pending job's expected start time.
 -- Remove some vestigial logic treating job priority of 1 as a special case.
 -- Memory freeing up to avoid minor memory leaks at close of daemons
 -- Updated documentation to give correct units being displayed.
 -- Report AccountingStorageBackupHost with "scontrol show config".
 -- init scripts ignore quotes around Pid file name specifications.
 -- Fixed typo about command case in quickstart.html.
 -- task/cgroup - handle new cpuset files, similar to commit c4223940.
 -- Replace the tempname() function call with mkstemp().
 -- Fix for --cpu_bind=map_cpu/mask_cpu/map_ldom/mask_ldom plus
    --mem_bind=map_mem/mask_mem options, broken in 2.6.2.
 -- Restore default behavior of allocating cores to jobs on a cyclic basis
    across the sockets unless SelectTypeParameters=CR_CORE_DEFAULT_DIST_BLOCK
    or user specifies other distribution options.
 -- Enforce JobRequeue configuration parameter on node failure. Previously
    always requeued the job.
 -- acct_gather_energy/ipmi - Add delay before retry on read error.
 -- select/cons_res with GRES and multiple threads per core, fix possible
    infinite loop.
 -- proctrack/cgroup - Add cgroup create retry logic in case one step is
    starting at the same time as another step is ending and the logic to create
    and delete cgroups overlaps.
 -- Improve setting of job wait "Reason" field.
 -- Correct sbatch documentation and job_submit/pbs plugin "%j" is job ID,
    not "%J" (which is job_id.step_id).
 -- Improvements to sinfo performance, especially for large numbers of
    partitions.
 -- SlurmdDebug - Permit changes to slurmd debug level with "scontrol \ 
reconfig"
 -- smap - Avoid invalid memory reference with hidden nodes.
 -- Fix sacctmgr modify qos set preempt+/-=.
 -- BLUEGENE - fix issue where node count wasn't set up correctly when srun
    preforms the allocation, regression in 2.6.3.
 -- Add support for dependencies of job array elements (e.g.
    "sbatch --depend=afterok:123_4 ...") or all elements of a job \ 
array (e.g.
    "sbatch --depend=afterok:123 ...").
 -- Add support for new options in sbatch qsub wrapper:
    -W block=true	(wait for job completion)
    Clear PBS_NODEFILE environment variable
 -- Fixed the MaxSubmitJobsPerUser limit in QOS which limited submissions
    a job too early.
 -- sched/wiki, sched/wiki2 - Fix to work with change logic introduced in
    version 2.6.3 preventing Maui/Moab from starting jobs.
 -- Updated the QOS limits documentation and man page.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.3
========================
 -- Add support for some new #PBS options in sbatch scripts and qsub wrapper:
    -l accelerator=true|false	(GPU use)
    -l mpiprocs=#	(processors per node)
    -l naccelerators=#	(GPU count)
    -l select=#		(node count)
    -l ncpus=#		(task count)
    -v key=value	(environment variable)
    -W depend=opts	(job dependencies, including "on" and \ 
"before" options)
    -W umask=#		(set job's umask)
 -- Added qalter and qrerun commands to torque package.
 -- Corrections to qstat logic: job CPU count and partition time format.
 -- Add job_submit/pbs plugin to translate PBS job dependency options to the
    extend possible (no support for PBS "before" options) and set some PBS
    environment variables.
 -- Add spank/pbs plugin to set a bunch of PBS environment variables.
 -- Backported sh5util from master to 2.6 as there are some important
    bugfixes and the new item extraction feature.
 -- select/cons_res - Correct MacCPUsPerNode partition constraint for CR_Socket.
 -- scontrol - for setdebugflags command, avoid parsing "-flagname" as an
    scontrol command line option.
 -- Fix issue with step accounting if a job is requeued.
 -- Close file descriptors on exec of prolog, epilog, etc.
 -- Fix issue when a user has held a job and then sets the begin time
    into the future.
 -- Scontrol - Enable changing a job's stdout file.
 -- Fix issues where memory or node count of a srun job is altered while the
    srun is pending.  The step creation would use the old values and possibly
    hang srun since the step wouldn't be able to be created in the modified
    allocation.
 -- Add support for new SchedulerParameters value of "bf_max_job_part", the
    maximum depth the backfill scheduler should go in any single partition.
 -- acct_gather/infiniband plugin - Correct packets_in/out values.
 -- BLUEGENE - Don't ignore a conn-type request from the user.
 -- BGQ - Force a request on a Q for a MESH to be a TORUS in a dimension that
    can only be a TORUS (1).
 -- Change max message length from 100MB to 1GB before generating "Insane
    message length" error.
 -- sched/backfill - Prevent possible memory corruption due to use of
    bf_continue option and long running scheduling cycle (pending jobs could
    have been cancelled and purged).
 -- CRAY - fix AcceleratorAllocation depth correctly for basil 1.3
 -- Created the environment variable SLURM_JOB_NUM_NODES for srun jobs and
    updated the srun man page.
 -- BLUEGENE/CRAY - Don't set env variables that pertain to a node when Slurm
    isn't doing the launching.
 -- gres/gpu and gres/mic - Do not treat the existence of an empty gres.conf
    file as a fatal error.
 -- Fixed for if hours are specified as 0 the time days-0:min specification
    is not parsed correctly.
 -- switch/nrt - Fix for memory leak.
 -- Subtract the PMII_COMMANDLEN_SIZE in contribs/pmi2/pmi2_api.c to prevent
    certain implementation of snprintf() to segfault.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.2
========================
 -- Fix issue with reconfig and GrpCPURunMins
 -- Fix of wrong node/job state problem after reconfig
 -- Allow users who are coordinators update their own limits in the accounts
    they are coordinators over.
 -- BackupController - Make sure we have a connection to the DBD first thing
    to avoid it thinking we don't have a cluster name.
 -- Correct value of min_nodes returned by loading job information to consider
    the job's task count and maximum CPUs per node.
 -- If running jobacct_gather/none fix issue on unpacking step completion.
 -- Reservation with CoreCnt: Avoid possible invalid memory reference.
 -- sjstat - Add man page when generating rpms.
 -- Make sure GrpCPURunMins is added when creating a user, account or QOS with
    sacctmgr.
 -- Fix for invalid memory reference due to multiple free calls caused by
    job arrays submitted to multiple partitions.
 -- Enforce --ntasks-per-socket=1 job option when allocating by socket.
 -- Validate permissions of key directories at slurmctld startup. Report
    anything that is world writable.
 -- Improve GRES support for CPU topology. Previous logic would pick CPUs then
    reject jobs that can not match GRES to the allocated CPUs. New logic first
    filters out CPUs that can not use the GRES, next picks CPUs for the job,
    and finally picks the GRES that best match those CPUs.
 -- Switch/nrt - Prevent invalid memory reference when allocating single adapter
    per node of specific adapter type
 -- CRAY - Make Slurm work with CLE 5.1.1
 -- Fix segfault if submitting to multiple partitions and holding the job.
 -- Use MAXPATHLEN instead of the hardcoded value 1024 for maximum file path
    lengths.
 -- If OverTimeLimit is defined do not declare failed those jobs that ended
    in the OverTimeLimit interval.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.1
========================
 -- slurmdbd - Allow job derived ec and comments to be modified by non-root
    users.
 -- Fix issue with job name being truncated to 24 chars when sending a mail
    message.
 -- Fix minor issues with spec file, missing files and including files
    erroneously on a bluegene system.
 -- sacct - fix --name and --partition options when using
    accounting_storage/filetxt.
 -- squeue - Remove extra whitespace of default printout.
 -- BGQ - added head ppcfloor as an include dir when building.
 -- BGQ - Better debug messages in runjob_mux plugin.
 -- PMI2 Updated the Makefile.am to build a versioned library.
 -- CRAY - Fix srun --mem_bind=local option with launch/aprun.
 -- PMI2 Corrected buffer size computation in the pmi2_api.c module.
 -- GRES accounting data wrong in database: gres_alloc, gres_req, and gres_used
    fields were empty if the job was not started immediately.
 -- Fix sbatch and srun task count logic when --ntasks-per-node specified,
    but no explicit task count.
 -- Corrected the hdf5 profile user guide and the acct_gather.conf
    documentation.
 -- IPMI - Fix Math bug getting new wattage.
 -- Corrected the AcctGatherProfileType documentation in slurm.conf
 -- Corrected the sh5util program to print the header in the csv file
    only once, set the debug messages at debug() level, make the argument
    check case insensitive and avoid printing duplicate \n.
 -- If cannot collect energy values send message to the controller
    to drain the node and log error slurmd log file.
 -- Handle complete removal of CPURunMins time at the end of the job instead
    of at multifactor poll.
 -- sview - Add missing debug_flag options.
 -- PGSQL - Notes about Postgres functionality being removed in the next
    version of Slurm.
 -- MYSQL - fix issue when rolling up usage and events happened when a cluster
    was down (slurmctld not running) during that time period.
 -- sched/wiki2 - Insure that Moab gets current CPU load information.
 -- Prevent infinite loop in parsing configuration if including file containing
    one blank line.
 -- Fix pack and unpack between 2.6 and 2.5.
 -- Fix job state recovery logic in which a job's accounting frequency was
    not set. This would result in a value of 65534 seconds being used (the
    equivalent of NO_VAL in uint16_t), which could result in the job being
    requeued or aborted.
 -- Validate a job's accounting frequency at submission time rather than
    waiting for it's initiation to possibly fail.
 -- Fix CPURunMins if a job is requeued from a failed launch.
 -- Fix in accounting_storage/filetxt to correct start times which sometimes
    could end up before the job started.
 -- Fix issue with potentially referencing past an array in parse_time()
 -- CRAY - fix issue with accelerators on a cray when parsing BASIL 1.3 XML.
 -- Fix issue with a 2.5 slurmstepd locking up when talking to a 2.6 slurmd.
 -- Add argument to priority plugin's priority_p_reconfig function to note
    when the association and QOS used_cpu_run_secs field has been reset.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.0
========================
 -- Fix it so bluegene and serial systems don't get warnings over new NODEDATA
    enum.
 -- When a job is aborted send a message for any tasks that have completed.
 -- Correction to memory per CPU calculation on system with threads and
    allocating cores or sockets.
 -- Requeue batch job if it's node reboots (used to abort the job).
 -- Enlarge maximum size of srun's hostlist file.
 -- IPMI - Fix first poll to get correct consumed_energy for a step.
 -- Correction to job state recovery logic that could result in assert failure.
 -- Record partial step accounting record if allocated nodes fail abnormally.
 -- Accounting - fix issue where PrivateData=jobs or users could potentially
    show information to users that had no associations on the system.
 -- Make PrivateData in slurmdbd.conf case insensitive.
 -- sacct/sstat - Add format option ConsumedEnergyRaw to print full energy
    values.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.0rc2
===========================
 -- HDF5 - Fix issue with Ubuntu where HDF5 development headers are
    overwritten by the parallel versions thus making it so we need handle
    both cases.
 -- ACCT_GATHER - handle suspending correctly for polling threads.
 -- Make SLURM_DISTRIBUTION env var hold both types of distribution if
    specified.
 -- Remove hardcoded /usr/local from slurm.spec.
 -- Modify slurmctld locking to improve performance under heavy load with
    very large numbers of batch job submissions or job cancellations.
 -- sstat - Fix issue where if -j wasn't given allow last argument to be checked
    for as the job/step id.
 -- IPMI - fix adjustment on poll when using EnergyIPMICalcAdjustment.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.0rc1
===========================
 -- Added helper script for launching symmetric and MIC-only MPI tasks within
    SLURM (in contribs/mic/mpirun-mic).
 -- Change maximum delay for state save from 2 secs to 5 secs. Make timeout
    configurable at build time by defining SAVE_MAX_WAIT.
 -- Modify slurmctld data structure locking to interleave read and write
    locks rather than always favor write locks over read locks.
 -- Added sacct format option of "ALL" to print all fields.
 -- Deprecate the SchedulerParameters value of "interval" use \ 
"bf_interval"
    instead as documented.
 -- Add acct_gather_profile/hdf5 to profile jobs with hdf5
 -- Added MaxCPUsPerNode partition configuration parameter. This can be
    especially useful to schedule systems with GPUs.
 -- Permit "scontrol reboot_node" for nodes in MAINT reservation.
 -- Added "PriorityFlags" value of "SMALL_RELATIVE_TO_TIME". \ 
If set, the job's
    size component will be based upon not the job size alone, but the job's
    size divided by it's time limit.
 -- Added sbatch option "--ignore-pbs" to ignore "#PBS" \ 
options in the batch
    script.
 -- Rename slurm_step_ctx_params_t field from "mem_per_cpu" to \ 
"pn_min_memory".
    Job step now accepts memory specification in either per-cpu or per-node
    basis.
 -- Add ability to specify host repitition count in the srun hostfile (e.g.
    "host1*2" is equivalent to "host1,host1").

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.0pre3
============================
 -- Add milliseconds to default log message header (both RFC 5424 and ISO 8601
    time formats). Disable milliseconds logging using the configure
    parameter "--disable-log-time-msec". Default time format changes to
    ISO 8601 (without time zone information). Specify \ 
"--enable-rfc5424time"
    to restore the time zone information.
 -- Add username (%u) to the filename pattern in the batch script.
 -- Added options for front end nodes of AllowGroups, AllowUsers, DenyGroups,
    and DenyUsers.
 -- Fix sched/backfill logic to initiate jobs with maximum time limit over the
    partition limit, but the minimum time limit permits it to start.
 -- gres/gpu - Fix for gres.conf file with multiple files on a single line
    using a slurm expression (e.g. "File=/dev/nvidia[0-1]").
 -- Replaced ipmi.conf with generic acct_gather.conf file for all acct_gather
    plugins.  For those doing development to use this follow the model set
    forth in the acct_gather_energy_ipmi plugin.
 -- Added more options to update a step's information
 -- Add DebugFlags=ThreadID which will print the thread id of the calling
    thread.
 -- CRAY - Allocate whole node (CPUs) in reservation despite what the
    user requests.  We have found any srun/aprun afterwards will work on a
    subset of resources.

* Changes in Slurm 2.6.0pre2
============================
 -- Do not purge inactive interactive jobs that lack a port to ping (added
    for MR+ operation).
 -- Advanced reservations with hostname and core counts now supports asymetric
    reservations (e.g. specific different core count for each node).
 -- Added slurmctld/dynalloc plugin for MapReduce+ support.
 -- Added "DynAllocPort" configuration parameter.
 -- Added partition paramter of SelectTypeParameters to override system-wide
    value.
 -- Added cr_type to partition_info data structure.
 -- Added allocated memory to node information available (within the existing
    select_nodeinfo field of the node_info_t data structure). Added Allocated
    Memory to node information displayed by sview and scontrol commands.
 -- Make sched/backfill the default scheduling plugin rather than sched/builtin
    (FIFO).
 -- Added support for a job having different priorities in different partitions.
 -- Added new SchedulerParameters configuration parameter of "bf_continue"
    which permits the backfill scheduler to continue considering jobs for
    backfill scheduling after yielding locks even if new jobs have been
    submitted. This can result in lower priority jobs from being backfill
    scheduled instead of newly arrived higher priority jobs, but will permit
    more queued jobs to be considered for backfill scheduling.
 -- Added support to purge reservation records from accounting.
 -- Cray - Add support for Basil 1.3

* Changes in SLURM 2.6.0pre1
============================
 -- Add "state" field to job step information reported by scontrol.
 -- Notify srun to retry step creation upon completion of other job steps
    rather than polling. This results in much faster throughput for job step
    execution with --exclusive option.
 -- Added "ResvEpilog" and "ResvProlog" configuration \ 
parameters to execute a
    program at the beginning and end of each reservation.
 -- Added "slurm_load_job_user" function. This is a variation of
    "slurm_load_jobs", but accepts a user ID argument, potentially \ 
resulting
    in substantial performance improvement for "squeue --user=ID"
 -- Added "slurm_load_node_single" function. This is a variation of
    "slurm_load_nodes", but accepts a node name argument, potentially \ 
resulting
    in substantial performance improvement for "sinfo --nodes=NAME".
 -- Added "HealthCheckNodeState" configuration parameter identify node \ 
states
    on which HealthCheckProgram should be executed.
 -- Remove sacct --dump --formatted-dump options which were deprecated in
    2.5.
 -- Added support for job arrays (phase 1 of effort). See "man sbatch" \ 
option
    -a/--array for details.
 -- Add new AccountStorageEnforce options of 'nojobs' and 'nosteps' which will
    allow the use of accounting features like associations, qos and limits but
    not keep track of jobs or steps in accounting.
 -- Cray - Add new cray.conf parameter of "AlpsEngine" to specify the
    communication protocol to be used for ALPS/BASIL.
 -- select/cons_res plugin: Correction to CPU allocation count logic in for
    cores without hyperthreading.
 -- Added new SelectTypeParameter value of "CR_ALLOCATE_FULL_SOCKET".
 -- Added PriorityFlags value of "TICKET_BASED" and merged \ 
priority/multifactor2
    plugin into priority/multifactor plugin.
 -- Add "KeepAliveTime" configuration parameter controlling how long \ 
sockets
    used for srun/slurmstepd communications are kept alive after disconnect.
 -- Added SLURM_SUBMIT_HOST to salloc, sbatch and srun job environment.
 -- Added SLURM_ARRAY_TASK_ID to environment of job array.
 -- Added squeue --array/-r option to optimize output for job arrays.
 -- Added "SlurmctldPlugstack" configuration parameter for generic stack of
    slurmctld daemon plugins.
 -- Removed contribs/arrayrun tool. Use native support for job arrays.
 -- Modify default installation locations for RPMs to match "make install":
    _prefix /usr/local
    _slurm_sysconfdir %{_prefix}/etc/slurm
    _mandir %{_prefix}/share/man
    _infodir %{_prefix}/share/info
 -- Add acct_gather_energy/ipmi which works off freeipmi for energy gathering

* Changes in Slurm 2.5.8
========================
 -- Fix for slurmctld segfault on NULL front-end reason field.
 -- Avoid gres step allocation errors when a job shrinks in size due to either
    down nodes or explicit resizing. Generated slurmctld errors of this type:
    "step_test ... gres_bit_alloc is NULL"
 -- Fix bug that would leak memory and over-write the AllowGroups field if on
    "scontrol reconfig" when AllowNodes is manually changed using scontrol.
 -- Get html/man files to install in correct places with rpms.
 -- Remove --program-prefix from spec file since it appears to be added by
    default and appeared to break other things.
 -- Updated the automake min version in autogen.sh to be correct.
 -- Select/cons_res - Correct total CPU count allocated to a job with
    --exclusive and --cpus-per-task options
 -- switch/nrt - Don't allocate network resources unless job step has 2+ nodes.
 -- select/cons_res - Avoid extraneous "oversubscribe" error messages.
 -- Reorder get config logic to avoid deadlock.
 -- Enforce QOS MaxCPUsMin limit when job submission contains no user-specified
    time limit.
 -- EpilogSlurmctld pthread is passed required arguments rather than a pointer
    to the job record, which under some conditions could be purged and result
    in an invalid memory reference.

* Changes in Slurm 2.5.7
========================
 -- Fix for linking to the select/cray plugin to not give warning about
    undefined variable.
 -- Add missing symbols to the xlator.h
 -- Avoid placing pending jobs in AdminHold state due to backfill scheduler
    interactions with advanced reservation.
 -- Accounting - make average by task not cpu.
 -- CRAY - Change logging of transient ALPS errors from error() to debug().
 -- POE - Correct logic to support poe option "-euidevice sn_all" and
    "-euidevice sn_single".
 -- Accounting - Fix minor initialization error.
 -- POE - Correct logic to support srun network instances count with POE.
 -- POE - With the srun --launch-cmd option, report proper task count when
    the --cpus-per-task option is used without the --ntasks option.
 -- POE - Fix logic binding tasks to CPUs.
 -- sview - Fix race condition where new information could of slipped past
    the node tab and we didn't notice.
 -- Accounting - Fix an invalid memory read when slurmctld sends data about
    start job to slurmdbd.
 -- If a prolog or epilog failure occurs, drain the node rather than setting it
    down and killing all of its jobs.
 -- Priority/multifactor - Avoid underflow in half-life calculation.
 -- POE - pack missing variable to allow fanout (more than 32 nodes)
 -- Prevent clearing reason field for pending jobs. This bug was introduced in
    v2.5.5 (see "Reject job at submit time ...").
 -- BGQ - Fix issue with preemption on sub-block jobs where a job would kill
    all preemptable jobs on the midplane instead of just the ones it needed to.
 -- switch/nrt - Validate dynamic window allocation size.
 -- BGQ - When --geo is requested do not impose the default conn_types.
 -- CRAY - Support CLE 4.2.0
 -- RebootNode logic - Defers (rather than forgets) reboot request with job
    running on the node within a reservation.
 -- switch/nrt - Correct network_id use logic. Correct support for user sn_all
    and sn_single options.
 -- sched/backfill - Modify logic to reduce overhead under heavy load.
 -- Fix job step allocation with --exclusive and --hostlist option.
 -- Select/cons_res - Fix bug resulting in error of "cons_res: sync loop not
    progressing, holding job #"
 -- checkpoint/blcr - Reset max_nodes from zero to NO_VAL on job restart.
 -- launch/poe - Fix for hostlist file support with repeated host names.
 -- priority/multifactor2 - Prevent possible divide by zero.
 -- srun - Don't check for executable if --test-only flag is used.
 -- energy - On a single node only use the last task for gathering energy.
    Since we don't currently track energy usage per task (only per step).
    Otherwise we get double the energy.

* Changes in Slurm 2.5.6
========================
 -- Gres fix for requeued jobs.
 -- Gres accounting - Fix regression in 2.5.5 for keeping track of gres
    requested and allocated.

* Changes in Slurm 2.5.5
========================
 -- Fix for sacctmgr add qos to handle the 'flags' option.
 -- Export SLURM_ environment variables from sbatch, even if "--export"
    option does not explicitly list them.
 -- If node is in more than one partition, correct counting of allocated CPUs.
 -- If step requests more CPUs than possible in specified node count of job
    allocation then return ESLURM_TOO_MANY_REQUESTED_CPUS rather than
    ESLURM_NODES_BUSY and retrying.
 -- CRAY - Fix SLURM_TASKS_PER_NODE to be set correctly.
 -- Accounting - more checks for strings with a possible `'` in it.
 -- sreport - Fix by adding planned down time to utilization reports.
 -- Do not report an error when sstat identifies job steps terminated during
    its execution, but log using debug type message.
 -- Select/cons_res - Permit node removed from job by going down to be returned
    to service and re-used by another job.
 -- Select/cons_res - Tighter packing of job allocations on sockets.
 -- SlurmDBD - fix to allow user root along with the slurm user to register a
    cluster.
 -- Select/cons_res - Fix for support of consecutive node option.
 -- Select/cray - Modify build to enable direct use of libslurm library.
 -- Bug fixes related to job step allocation logic.
 -- Cray - Disable enforcement of MaxTasksPerNode, which is not applicable
    with launch/aprun.
 -- Accounting - When rolling up data from past usage ignore "idle" \ 
time from
    a reservation when it has the "Ignore_Jobs" flag set.  Since jobs \ 
could run
    outside of the reservation in it's nodes without this you could have
    double time.
 -- Accounting - Minor fix to avoid reuse of variable erroneously.
 -- Reject job at submit time if the node count is invalid. Previously such a
    job submitted to a DOWN partition would be queued.
 -- Purge vestigial job scripts when the slurmd cold starts or slurmstepd
    terminates abnormally.
 -- Add support for FreeBSD.

    deny the job instead of holding it.
 -- Make sure on systems that use a different launcher than launch/slurm not
    to attempt to signal tasks on the frontend node.
 -- Cray - when a step is requested count other steps running on nodes in the
    allocation as taking up the entire node instead of just part of the node
    allocated.  And always enforce exclusive on a step request.

* Changes in Slurm 2.5.4
========================
 -- Fix bug in PrologSlurmctld use that would block job steps until node

    at least 3.5.0.  This avoids a stack overflow when running jobs on
    more than 120k nodes.
 -- BLUEGENE - If we made a block that isn't runnable because of a overlapping
    block, destroy it correctly.
 -- Switch/nrt - Dynamically load libnrt.so from within the plugin as needed.
    This eliminates the need for libnrt.so on the head node.
 -- BLUEGENE - Fix in reservation logic that could cause abort.

* Changes in SLURM 2.5.1
========================
 -- Correction to hostlist sorting for hostnames that contain two numeric
    components and the first numeric component has various sizes (e.g.

    incorrectly.
 -- If sched/backfill starts a job with a QOS having NO_RESERVE and not job
    time limit, start it with the partition time limit (or one year if the
    partition has no time limit) rather than NO_VAL (140 year time limit);

    stack.
 -- Change RPC version checks to support version 2.5 slurmctld with version 2.4
    slurmd daemons.

    also cause it to run if the realtime server ever goes away.

* Changes in SLURM 2.5.0-rc2
============================
 -- Modify sbcast logic to survive slurmd daemon restart while file a
    transmission is in progress.

 -- Accounting - Change empty jobacctinfo structs to not actually be used
    instead of putting 0's into the database we put NO_VALS and have sacct
    figure out jobacct_gather wasn't used.
 -- Cray - Prevent calling basil_confirm more than once per job using a flag.
 -- Fix bug with topology/tree and job with min-max node count. Now try to
    get max node count rather than minimizing leaf switches used.
 -- Add AccountingStorageEnforce=safe option to provide method to avoid jobs
    launching that wouldn't be able to run to completion because of a
    GrpCPUMins limit.
 -- Add support for RFC 5424 timestamps in logfiles. Disable with configuration
    option of "--disable-rfc5424time". By Janne Blomqvist, Aalto \ 
University.

    reservations.
 -- sinfo partition field size will be set the the length of the longest
    partition name by default.

    set errno == ESLURM_INVALID_TIME_VALUE on error instead.
 -- Correct srun --no-alloc logic when node count exceeds node list or task
    task count is not a multiple of the node count. Work by Hongjia Cao, NUDT.

=============================
 -- When running with multiple slurmd daemons per node, enable specifying a
    range of ports on a single line of the node configuration in slurm.conf.
 -- Add reservation flag of Part_Nodes to allocate all nodes in a partition to
    a reservation and automatically change the reservation when nodes are
    added to or removed from the reservation. Based upon work by
    Bill Brophy, Bull.
 -- Add support for advanced reservation for specific cores rather than whole
    nodes. Current limiations: homogeneous cluster, nodes idle when reservation
    created, and no more than one reservation per node. Code is still under
    development. Work by Alejandro Lucero Palau, et. al, BSC.
 -- Add DebugFlag of Switch to log switch plugin details.
 -- Correct job node_cnt value in job completion plugin when job fails due to
    down node. Previously was too low by one.
 -- Add new srun option --cpu-freq to enable user control over the job's CPU
    frequency and thus it's power consumption. NOTE: cpu frequency is not
    currently preserved for jobs being suspended and later resumed. Work by
    Don Albert, Bull.
 -- Add node configuration information about "boards" and optimize task
    placement on minimum number of boards. Work by Rod Schultz, Bull.

Output is
    "name:used/total"
 -- Changed jobacct_gather plugin infrastructure to be cleaner and easier to
    maintain.
 -- Change license option count separator from "*" to ":" \

    the gres option (e.g. "--licenses=foo:2 --gres=gpu:2"). The \ 
"*" will still
    be accepted, but is no longer documented.
 -- Permit more than 100 jobs to be scheduled per node (new limit is 250
    jobs).

 -- Correct WillRun authentication logic when issued for non-job owner.
 -- BGQ - fix memory leak
 -- BGQ - Fix to check block for action 'D' if it also has nodes in error.

* Changes in SLURM 2.4.5
========================
 -- Cray - On job kill requeust, send SIGCONT, SIGTERM, wait KillWait and send
    SIGKILL. Previously just sent SIGKILL to tasks.
 -- BGQ - Fix issue when running srun outside of an allocation and only
    specifying the number of tasks and not the number of nodes.
 -- BGQ - validate correct ntasks_per_node
 -- BGQ - when srun -Q is given make runjob be quiet
 -- Modify use of OOM (out of memory protection) for Linux 2.6.36 kernel
    or later. NOTE: If you were setting the environment variable
    SLURMSTEPD_OOM_ADJ=-17, it should be set to -1000 for Linux 2.6.36 kernel
    or later.
 -- BGQ - Fix job step timeout actually happen when done from within an
    allocation.
 -- Reset node MAINT state flag when a reservation's nodes or flags change.
 -- Accounting - Fix issue where QOS usage was being zeroed out on a
    slurmctld restart.
 -- BGQ - Add 64 tasks per node as a valid option for srun when used with
    overcommit.
 -- BLUEGENE - With Dynamic layout mode - Fix issue where if a larger block
    was already in error and isn't deallocating and underlying hardware goes
    bad one could get overlapping blocks in error making the code assert when
    a new job request comes in.
 -- BGQ - handle pending actions on a block better when trying to deallocate it.
 -- Accounting - Fixed issue where if nodenames have changed on a system and
    you query against that with -N and -E you will get all jobs during that
    time instead of only the ones running on -N.
 -- BGP - Fix for HTC mode
 -- Accounting - If a job start message fails to the SlurmDBD reset the db_inx
    so it gets sent again.  This isn't a major problem since the start will
    happen when the job ends, but this does make things cleaner.
 -- If an salloc is waiting for an allocation to happen and is canceled by the
    user mark the state canceled instead of completed.
 -- Fix issue in accounting if a user puts a '\' in their job name.
 -- Accounting - Fix for if asking for users or accounts that were deleted
    with associations get the deleted associations as well.

    with a job running or trying to run on it.
 -- Execute slurm_spank_job_epilog when there is no system Epilog configured.
 -- Fix for srun --test-only to work correctly with timelimits
 -- BGQ - If a job goes away while still trying to free it up in the
    database, and the job is running on a small block make sure we free up
    the correct node count.
 -- BGQ - Logic added to make sure a job has finished on a block before it is
    purged from the system if its front-end node goes down.
 -- Modify strigger so that a filter option of "--user=0" is supported.
 -- Correct --mem-per-cpu logic for core or socket allocations with multiple
    threads per core.
 -- Fix for older < glibc 2.4 systems to use euidaccess() instead of eaccess().
 -- BLUEGENE - Do not alter a pending job's node count when changing it's
    partition.
 -- BGQ - Add functionality to make it so we track the actions on a block.
    This is needed for when a free request is added to a block but there are
    jobs finishing up so we don't start new jobs on the block since they will
    fail on start.
 -- BGQ - Fixed InactiveLimit to work correctly to avoid scenarios where a
    user's pending allocation was started with srun and then for some reason
    the slurmctld was brought down and while it was down the srun was removed.
 -- Fixed InactiveLimit math to work correctly
 -- BGQ - Add logic to make it so blocks can't use a midplane with a nodeboard
    in error for passthrough.

    for passthrough gets removed on a dynamic system.
 -- BGQ - Fix for printing realtime server debug correctly.
 -- BGQ - Cleaner handling of cnode failures when reported through the runjob
    interface instead of through the normal method.
 -- smap - spread node information across multiple lines for larger systems.
 -- Cray - Defer salloc until after PrologSlurmctld completes.
 -- Correction to slurmdbd communications failure handling logic, incorrect
    error codes returned in some cases.

* Changes in SLURM 2.4.3
========================
 -- Accounting - Fix so complete 32 bit numbers can be put in for a priority.
 -- cgroups - fix if initial directory is non-existent SLURM creates it
    correctly.  Before the errno wasn't being checked correctly
 -- BGQ - fixed srun when only requesting a task count and not a node count
    to operate the same way salloc or sbatch did and assign a task per cpu
    by default instead of task per node.
 -- Fix salloc --gid to work correctly.  Reported by Brian Gilmer
 -- BGQ - fix smap to set the correct default MloaderImage
 -- BLUEGENE - updated documentation.
 -- Close the batch job's environment file when it contains no data to avoid
    leaking file descriptors.
 -- Fix sbcast's credential to last till the end of a job instead of the
    previous 20 minute time limit.  The previous behavior would fail for
    large files 20 minutes into the transfer.
 -- Return ESLURM_NODES_BUSY rather than ESLURM_NODE_NOT_AVAIL error on job
    submit when required nodes are up, but completing a job or in exclusive
    job allocation.
 -- Add HWLOC_FLAGS so linking to libslurm works correctly
 -- BGQ - If using backfill and a shared block is running at least one job
    and a job comes through backfill and can fit on the block without ending
    jobs don't set an end_time for the running jobs since they don't need to
    end to start the job.
 -- Initialize bind_verbose when using task/cgroup.
 -- BGQ - Fix for handling backfill much better when sharing blocks.
 -- BGQ - Fix for making small blocks on first pass if not sharing blocks.
 -- BLUEGENE - Remove force of default conn_type instead of leaving NAV
    when none are requested.  The Block allocator sets it up temporarily so
    this isn't needed.
 -- BLUEGENE - Fix deadlock issue when dealing with bad hardware if using
    static blocks.
 -- Fix to mysql plugin during rollup to only query suspended table when jobs
    reported some suspended time.

    host names.
 -- Correction to task layout logic in select/cons_res for job with minimum
    and maximum node count.
 -- BGQ - Put final poll after realtime comes back into service to avoid
    having the realtime server go down over and over again while waiting
    for the poll to finish.
 -- task/cgroup/memory - ensure that ConstrainSwapSpace=no is correctly
    handled. Work by Matthieu Hautreux, CEA.
 -- CRAY - Fix for sacct -N option to work correctly
 -- CRAY - Update documentation to describe installation from rpm instead
    or previous piecemeal method.
 -- Fix sacct to work with QOS' that have previously been deleted.
 -- Added all available limits to the output of sacctmgr list qos

* Changes in SLURM 2.4.2
========================
 -- BLUEGENE - Correct potential deadlock issue when hardware goes bad and
    there are jobs running on that hardware.
 -- If job is submitted to more than one partition, it's partition pointer can
    be set to an invalid value. This can result in the count of CPUs allocated
    on a node being bad, resulting in over- or under-allocation of its CPUs.
    Patch by Carles Fenoy, BSC.
 -- Fix bug in task layout with select/cons_res plugin and --ntasks-per-node
    option. Patch by Martin Perry, Bull.
 -- BLUEGENE - remove race condition where if a block is removed while waiting
    for a job to finish on it the number of unused cpus wasn't updated
    correctly.
 -- BGQ - make sure we have a valid block when creating or finishing a step
    allocation.
 -- BLUEGENE - If a large block (> 1 midplane) is in error and underlying
    hardware is marked bad remove the larger block and create a block over
    just the bad hardware making the other hardware available to run on.
 -- BLUEGENE - Handle job completion correctly if an admin removes a block
    where other blocks on an overlapping midplane are running jobs.
 -- BLUEGENE - correctly remove running jobs when freeing a block.
 -- BGQ - correct logic to place multiple (< 1 midplane) steps inside a
    multi midplane block allocation.
 -- BGQ - Make it possible for a multi midplane allocation to run on more
    than 1 midplane but not the entire allocation.
 -- BGL - Fix for syncing users on block from Tim Wickberg
 -- Fix initialization of protocol_version for some messages to make sure it
    is always set when sending or receiving a message.
 -- Reset backfilled job counter only when explicitly cleared using scontrol.
    Patch from Alejandro Lucero Palau, BSC.
 -- BLUEGENE - Fix for handling blocks when a larger block will not free and
    while it is attempting to free underlying hardware is marked in error
    making small blocks overlapping with the freeing block.  This only
    applies to dynamic layout mode.
 -- Cray and BlueGene - Do not treat lack of usable front-end nodes when
    slurmctld deamon starts as a fatal error. Also preserve correct front-end
    node for jobs when there is more than one front-end node and the slurmctld
    daemon restarts.
 -- Correct parsing of srun/sbatch input/output/error file names so that only
    the name "none" is mapped to /dev/null and not any file name starting
    with "none" (e.g. "none.o").
