This file contains the main features as well as overviews of specific bug fixes (and other actions) for each version of Libfabric since version 1.0.
- Added GNI provider
- Added PSM2 provider
- Initial release
- General bug fixes
- Support auto progress mode
- Support more threading modes
- Only set FI_CONTEXT mode if FI_TAGGED or FI_MSG is used
- Support Intel Omni-Path Fabric via the psm2-compat library
- Initial addition
- General bug fixes and code cleanup
- Update memory registration to support 32-bit builds and fix build warnings
- Initiate conn-msg on the same tx_ctx as the tx operation for scalable ep
- Fix av mask calculation for scalable ep
- Mask out context-id during connection lookup for scalable ep
- Increase buffered receive limit
- Ignore FI_INJECT flag for atomic read operation
- Return -FI_EINVAL instead of -FI_ENODATA for fi_endpoint for invalid attributes
- Set default tag format to FI_TAG_GENERIC
- Set src/dest iov len correctly for readv operations
- Fix random crashes while closing shared contexts
- Fix an out of bound access when large multi-recv limit is specified by user
- Reset tag field in CQ entry for send completion
- Do not set prov_name in fabric_attr
- Validate flags in CQ/Cntr bind operations
- Scalability enhancements
- Increase mr_key size to 64 bit
- Use red-black tree for mr_key lookup
- The usNIC provider does not yet support asynchronous memory registration. Return -FI_EOPNOTSUPP if an event queue is bound to a domain with FI_REG_MR.
- Set fi_usnic_info::ui_version correctly in calls to fi_usnic_ops_fabric::getinfo().
- Improve fi_cq_sread performance.
- Return -FI_EINVAL from av_open when given invalid paramters.
- Fix bug in fi_av_remove that could lead to a seg fault.
- Implement fi_av_insertsvc.
- Report FI_PROTO_RUDP as protocol for EP_RDM.
- Add support for RDM EPs. Currently only FI_TAGGED capability is supported. RDM and MSG EPs would be reported in seperate domains since they don't share CQs. The RDM enpoint feature is currently experimental and no guarantees are given with regard to its functionality.
- Refactor the code into several files to enable adding RDM support.
- Consolidate send code paths to improve maintainability.
- Fix a bug in fi_getinfo where wild card address was not used when service argument is given.
- Fix fi_getinfo to always return -FI_ENODATA in case of failure.
- Add support for fi_eq_write.
- Other misc bug fixes.
- General bug fixes
- Proper termination of the name server thread
- Add UUID and PSM epid to debug output
- Add environment variable to control psm_ep_close timeout
- Code refactoring of AM-based messaging
- Check more fields of the hints passed to fi_getinfo
- Generate error CQ entries for empty result of recv with FI_SEEK flag
- Correctly handle overlapped local buffers in atomics
- Handle duplicated addresses in fi_av_insert
- Fix the return value of fi_cq_readerr
- Call AM progress function only when AM is used
- Detect MPI runs and turns off name server thread automatically
- General clean-up and restructuring
- Add fallback mechanism for getting source address
- Fix fi_getinfo to use user provided capabilities from hints
- Fix hostname and port number and added checks in sock_av_insertsym

- Release av resources in the error path
- Remove separate read/write CQ to be consistent with the man page
- Increase default connection map size and added environment variable to specify AV, CQ, EQ and connection map size to run large scale tests
- Fix FI_PEEK operation to be consistent with the man page
