Things to do before 7.1 release: ================================ Testing: -------- Done: - Linux gcc 3.x 32/64 - Linux gcc 2.9x - Linux Absoft - Solaris forte 32/64 bit - Solaris gcc 2.9x - AIX xlc - Memory leaks checked - static and dynamic builds - IB (including new VAPI on thor) - shmem - large number of nodes/SMP combined - AIX/solaris/linux - solaris gm w/ large nodes/SMP - IB w/ large nodes/SMP - VPATH relative - VPATH absolute - VPATH with dynamic modules - Solaris Forte: "building shared libs in Sol 64 bit mode not possible due to bug in LT" -- is this still true? --> doc note: update release notes with answer ===> Answer: Yes. I get the following error - which I guess is because of this ---------------------------------------------------------------------- /wgetattr_f.o .libs/wgeterr_f.o .libs/wgetname_f.o .libs/wgroup_f.o .libs/wpost_f.o .libs/wse tattr_f.o .libs/wseterr_f.o .libs/wsetname_f.o .libs/wstart_f.o .libs/wtick_f.o .libs/wtime_f. o .libs/wwait_f.o .libs/xbuoy_f.o .libs/xcoloron_f.o .libs/xcoloroff_f.o -mt -lc ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libc.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/ucblib/libucb.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libresolv.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libsocket.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libnsl.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: file /usr/lib/libelf.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 ld: fatal: File processing errors.

Some glibc warnings ! - Intel compiler (including lamtests) - OK (lamtests without FLIBS was ok) To do: compile / build tests - newest Absoft on eddie (have asked Larry to get v9.0) Web site: --------- - make 7.1 web pages [Some pages in local copy] - keep 7.0 and 6.5.9 available (add links on download pages) [Done in local copy] Docs: ----- - compare HISTORY to docs DONE - fix changebar problem - update the "officially tested platform" list in doc/install/release-notes.txt - release notes: address open questions from testing section, above - re-edit all docs - check all relevant man pages; see if they're updated (e.g., w.r.t. slurm and ib and DSO and ...)
