- Updated to version 1.4.0 for general stability(fate#321883)
- Summary of changes as follow:
- Add new options, `-f` and `-d`, to fi_info that can be used to
specify hints about the fabric and domain name. Change port to `-P`
and provider to `-p` to be more in line with fi_pingpong.
*GNI provider notes
- General bug fixes, plugged memory leaks, performance improvements,
improved error handling and warning messages, etc.
- Additional API support:
- FI_THREAD_COMPLETION
- FI_RMA_EVENT
- iov length up to 8 for messaging data transfers
*PSM provider notes
- General bug fixes
- Use utility provider for EQ, wait object, and poll set
- Allow multi-recv to post buffer larger than message size limit
*PSM2 provider notes
- General bug fixes
- Add support for multi-iov RMA read and aromic operations
- Allow multi-recv to post buffer larger than message size limit
*Verbs provider notes
- Add fork support. It is enabled by default and can be turned off by
setting the FI_FORK_UNSAFE variable to "yes". This can improve
performance of memory registrations but also makes fork unsafe. The
following are the limitations of fork support:
- Fabric resources like endpoint, CQ, EQ, etc. should not be used in
the forked process.
- The memory registered using fi_mr_reg has to be page aligned since
ibv_reg_mr marks the entire page that a memory region belongs to
as not to be re-mapped when the process is forked (MADV_DONTFORK).
- Fix a bug where source address info was not being returned in
fi_info when destination node is specified.
