+* 1.2.2 release notes from upstream:
+- A new module system, allowing users to write their own extensions to DMTCP,
+ including wrappers around library calls. See the module subdirectory for
+ examples.
+- ./configure --enable-m32 was not working in DMTCP 1.2.1. It works again now.
+- more bug fixes and robustness testing. Tested on kernels ranging from Linux
+ 2.6.5 to the latest kernel. Tested especially on the Linux distributions: Red
+ Hat/Fedora, Debian/Ubuntu, SuSe/OpenSUSE; although we don't know of any Linux
+ distributions where it fails to run.
+- 'screen' did not checkpoint properly on machines using LDAP authentication.
+ This could also affect processes using 'bash'. This has been fixed.
+- Furthermore, recent versions of 'screen' began calling 'utempter' when
+ present Support for 'utempter' and some other setuid processes has been
+ added.
+- Removed the requirement for libc.a in building DMTCP, since Red Hat does not
+ include libc.a in its standard repository.
+- ./configure --enable-ptrace now more robust. Still labelled "experimental"
+ for this release. You will need to enable this if you want to checkpoint gdb
+ sessions, programs running under strace, and certain other applications.
+- ./configure --enable-fast-ckpt-restart can make ckpt/restart faster by using
+ 'mmap'. You will need to set the environment variable DMTCP_GZIP to "0" if
+ you use this. This feature is still experimental, and there are many other
+ tricks for speeding up ckpt/restart. Please talk to the developers if this is
+ important for your application.
+- Experimental support added for HBICT ( hbict.sf.net ). This provides support
+ for incremental and differential checkpointing. However, this is still
+ ongoing work.
+- Work has begun on improved support for process migration between different
+ Linux kernels and distributions. Simple applications should migrate. Please
+ talk to us if this feature is important to you.
+- We do not yet support the 'epoll' and 'inotify' Linux system calls. Recently,
+ there has been some demand for this, and we intend to raise the priority.
+ Please talk to us if this feature is important to you.
