1114- Known Bugs
1215- Added
1316 - Setting ARMCI_VERBOSE=1 at runtime will also dump configuration details for
1417 ComEx runtime
18+ - GA can be initialized from an MPI communicator. This enables instances of GA
19+ to be created from non-GA programs and run independently on a subset of
20+ processors
21+ - An option to use System V memory instead of POSIX shared memory was added to
22+ the MPI progress ranks runtime. This option was added to get around a memory
23+ limitation with POSIX shared memory only allows a maximum of about half the
24+ available memory to used as shared memory. System V memory does not have
25+ this limit, but this implementation does not appear to be reliable and
26+ should be avoided if large memory usage is not needed
27+ - Substantial support for sparse 2D arrays. This includes operations such as
28+ matrix-vector and matrix-matrix multiplies, sparse-dense conversion and
29+ operations on the diagonals
1530- Changed
1631 - Updated compiler settings in CMake build if Fujitsu compilers are detected
32+ - Removed all instances of ga_malloc from GA source code. This frees GA from
33+ needing to initialize MA before using GA library calls.
1734- Fixed
1835 - Fixed gcc toolchain checks in CMake for clang build
1936 - Fixed tiled arrays so that they work with restricted arrays and fixed some
2037 additional bugs in block cyclic distributions
2138 - Removed several memory leaks
39+ - Older TCGMSG implementations removed from build and documentation.
40+ TCGMSG-MPI is still retained
41+ - A substantial amount of code and documentation for discontinued or
42+ deprecated systems was removed. Examples include Blue Gene P/L/Q, LAPI,
43+ PVM, CCA, VIA, Quadrics, Elan-3/4, Myrinet GM, Mellanox, Hitachi, DEC, etc.
44+ - Number of outstanding non-blocking messages in MPI RMA runtime modified so
45+ that non-blocking test passes
