CODING RULES FOR TORQUE
=======================

I) torque_socklen_t must be used instead of socklen_t to ensure portability
II) O_Sync must be used instead of arch-specific O_SYNC or _FSYNC.  
  A. It is defined in svrfunc.h
  B. It is defined to 0 unless --enable-filesync is used.
III) Adding new files
  A. New header files must be added to src/include/Makefile.am
  B. New directories must have a Makefile.am (even if mostly empty)
     1. configure.ac needs the Makefile listed in the AC_OUTPUT macro near the bottom
     2. any files generated by configure or make must be added to the svn:ignore property
        a. feel free to copy from a similar directory:
            svn propget svn:ignore src/lib/Libpbs > propfile
            svn propset svn:ignore -F propfile src/lib/Libcsv
            rm propfile
        b. *.o are automatically ignored
  C. If a source file is to be conditionally compiled, use the 'foo_SOURCES += bar.c' syntax
     An example is at src/resmom/linux/Makefile.am
  D. Always run 'autoreconf -v -f -i' and 'make distcheck' after any additions
  E. 'svn status | grep ^/?' lists all new files that need to be added to svn control
     or svn:ignore




HOW TO ADD NEW RESMOM ARCH
==========================

TORQUE is already highly portable and should build server and clients on any
remotely POSIXish system (including cygwin).

Unfortunately, pbs_mom needs intimate details of the OS for process management
that go beyond POSIX specs.  These arch-specific changes are in a subdirectory
in src/resmom/.

Note that creating a new momarch is discouraged.  A few #ifdef's or run-time
detection is more flexible and easier to maintain long-term.

Here is the recipe for creating a new "momarch":

1. Copy the most similar arch in src/resmom/ to a new directory and modify
   the source files as required for the new arch.  
2. Add this directory to DIST_SUBDIRS in src/resmom/Makefile.am.  
3. Modify buildutils/pbs_mach_type to report your new momarch.
4. Add the new src/resmom/<momarch>/Makefile.am to AC_OUTPUT() in configure.ac
5. Create a new pbs_resources_<momarch> manpage in doc/man7/
6. Add the new manpage to doc/Makefile.am
7. Other changes to configure.ac may be required, ie, adding to $MOMLIBS
8. Run 'autoreconf -vfi' to generate new autobuild files
9. In a seperate objdir, run configure and 'make distcheck'.
10. If all goes well, modify CHANGELOG and check in the changes (don't
   forget to add the new momarch directory).



HOW TO ADD NEW ATTRIBUTES
=========================

1) Define the string to ATTR_something in src/include/pbs_ifl.h.  There are
   sections for the different types of attributes.  Node attributes are called
   ATTR_NODE_*.

     #define ATTR_foobarbaz "foo_bar_baz"

   This is how clients and schedulers will refer to the attribute.


2) Add the ATTR_something define to one of the following header files:
   
   src/include/qmgr_node_public.h
   src/include/qmgr_node_readonly.h
   src/include/qmgr_que_public.h
   src/include/qmgr_que_readonly.h
   src/include/qmgr_svr_public.h
   src/include/qmgr_svr_readonly.h

   Job attributes are excluded because qmgr doesn't deal with jobs.  "public"
   header files are for 'set'-able attributes.  The "readonly" header files are
   only shown with 'list server' in qmgr.  The distinction is very important
   considering the 'print set' should give you valid input to qmgr.  If a readonly
   attribute is printed, then a restore of the serverdb would fail.


3) For server attributes, add the enum name SRV_ATR_Foo to src/include/server.h.
   For node attributes, add the enum name ND_ATR_Foo to src/include/pbs_nodes.h.
   For job attributes, add the enum name JOB_ATR_Foo to src/include/jobs.h.
   For queue attributes, there are 3 forms: QE_ATR_Foo for execution queues,
    QR_ATR_Foo for routing queues, and QA_Foo for both types.  These are added to
    src/include/queue.h.
   In all cases, add them to the end just before the #include.

   This is how pbs_server and pbs_mom will refer to the attribute. 


4) This is the most complicated step because this is the real work.
   Create a new attr structure in src/server/{que,srv,job,node}_attr_def.c.
   Use the others as a template.  Always add at the end before the #include.  The
   position must match the position of the enums in step 3.

  /* SRV_ATR_FooBarBaz */
    {   ATTR_foobarbaz,		/* "foo_bar_baz" external name */
        decode_str,		/* decode into machine form */
        encode_str,		/* encode from machine to external form */
        set_str,		/* set the value */
        comp_str,		/* compare the value */
        free_str,		/* free the attribute */
        NULL_FUNC,		/* "at_action", function to call when changing the value */
        NO_USER_SET,		/* permissions bitmask */
        ATR_TYPE_ARST,		/* value type */
        PARENT_TYPE_SERVER	/* attribute type */
    },


   For server attributes, the permissions must "READ_ONLY", "MGR_ONLY_SET", or
   "NO_USER_SET".  If you choose "qmgr_svr_readonly.h" above, then use
   "READ_ONLY".  Otherwise use "NO_USER_SET" to allow operators and managers, or
   "MGR_ONLY_SET" to only allow managers.


5) Add the new attr to doc/man7/pbs_server_attributes.7B.

6) Note the change to CHANGELOG
