Preliminary Change Log 7.2.37 --> 7.2.38:

(Show/Hide)

client: job scheduler tweaks to avoid idle CPUs
-> Allow overcommitment by > 1 CPU. E.g. If there are two 6-CPU jobs on an 8 CPU machine, run them both.
-> Prefer MT jobs to ST jobs in general. When reorder the run list (i.e. converting "preliminary" to "final" list), prefer job J1 to J2 if:
1) J1 is EDF and J2 isn't.
2) J1 uses GPUs and J2 doesn't.
3) J1 is in the middle of a timeslice and J2 isn't.
4) J1 uses more CPUs than J2.
5) J1's project has higher scheduling priority than J2's ... in that order.

4) is new; it replaces the function promote_multi_thread_jobs(), which did something similar but didn't work in some cases.

client: fix problems related to CPU throttling.
-> Don't throttle GPU apps. GPU apps spend all their time in a critical section, during which they can't be suspended. They length of these critical sections (i.e. of GPU kernels) may be a significant part of a second, or more, so sub-second throttling isn't possible.
-> Account elapsed time correctly when throttling is used.
-> Also (not related to throttling) don't schedule a job in QUIT_PENDING or ABORT_PENDING state. Doing so results in 2 processes in the slot dir, and can cause the job to fail.

client: Fix compiler warning (unused static function).
client: if app doesn't report fraction done, estimate it.
client: if app doesn't report fraction done, estimate fraction done in a way that converges to but never reaches 100%.
