## Changes in 25.11.0rc2

* Avoid deadlock that occurs on a failed reconfigure when there are issues with slurmdbd connections and AccountingStoreFlags is set with job_script or job_env.
* Use rename() to atomically replace the heartbeat state file.
* scrun - Fix memory leak from invalid incoming messages.
* scrun - Avoid regressoion that would cause shutdown to hang.
* scrun - Fix race condition that could cause scrun to crash during shutdown.
* Set SLURM_JOB_SELINUX_CONTEXT in Prolog, Epilog, PrologSlurmctld, and EpilogSlurmctld with the selinux_context.
* Avoid printing "JobID=Invalid" or "SLUID=Invalid" to the logs. Print both when both are set, otherwise print whichever is set.
* slurmctld - Avoid regression that caused POSIX signals to be ignored after quiesce timeout triggers.
* Fix potential file descriptor leak to child processes.
* Add expediting state to job metrics.
* Fix federated jobs not getting SLUID set.
* Fix memory corruption on federated sibling submissions.
* Add SLURM_JOB_QOS to PrologSlurmctld/EpilogSlurmctld environment.
* namespace/linux - fix potential error with chown at job startup.
* Fix use after free in namespace/linux on an error condition.
* namespace/linux - fix potential invalid close() of file descriptors.
* slurmctld,slurmd - Reject incoming RPC connections with TLS required error to help misconfigured clients.
* Add requeue_delay option to SchedulerParameters.
* RPCs that are keyed by SLUID no longer fall-back to looking up the job by JobId. This should avoid (rare) edge cases where a node reconnects to the cluster and attempts to cancel requeued jobs.
* Add %S as a filename replacement pattern for SLUID.
* Add %r as a filename replacement pattern for restart count for batch jobs.
* Add topology.yaml manpage to debian packages.
* Add GET /metrics endpoint to list all metric-related endpoints.

* namespace/linux - Default to 10 seconds for clone_ns_script_wait and clone_ns_epilog_wait if their values are not configured.
* namespace/linux - The namespace/linux plugin no longer reads job_container.conf. Instead it parses namespace.yaml.
* Prevent potential segfault when providing hostlist_push() with an incorrectly formatted hostlist string.

## Changes in 25.11.0rc1

* slurmrestd - Load slurmctld and slurmdbd OpenAPI plugins by default when slurmdbd accounting is configured or only the slurmctld OpenAPI plugin otherwise.
* slurmrestd - Improve error response message when URL is not found or not supported.
* Fix race condition that could result in a syslog message being lost right immediately before executing a script.

* Remove node_features/knl_generic plugin.
* Limit conmgr_threads to 256 for all configuration parameters.
* slurmctld - Avoid potentially logging invalid address for info level logging of "slurmctld_req: received opcode %s from %pA uid %u".

* Add a new 'reconfig_on_restart' to 'SlurmctldParameters' making a restart of slurmctld (a process restart that was not triggered by "scontrol reconfigure") trigger a reconfigure of all slurmd and sackd daemons.
* Skip attempting to resolve reserved user "nobody" (uid:99) using getpwduid_r().

* slurmrestd - Add support for the SLURM_DEBUG environment variable.
* Add a new --consolidate-segments option to salloc/sbatch/srun.
* openapi/util - Add openapi/util plugin for request not requiring a connection to the slurmctld or slurmdbd.
* slurmrestd - Load the openapi/util plugin by default.

* slurmd - Change default to SlurmdParameters=conmgr_threads=6.
* scrun - Change default conmgr thread count to 3.
* slurmstepd - Change default conmgr_threads=4 when SlurmdParameters=conmgr_threads=# is not defined.

* slurmd - Add --parameters option to append additional options to the SlurmdParameters option from slurm.conf. Can also be used with 'slurmd -C' to print alternate cpu topologies. (E.g., 'slurmd -C --parameters l3cache_as_socket'.)
* Add per-node Parameters option, allowing node-specific SlurmdParameters.
* Manually updating a node's state to IDLE with 'scontrol update nodename' is no longer allowed if the node is in state REBOOT_ISSUED. This is to prevent the REBBOOT_ISSUED state from not automatically clearing once the reboot finishes.
* openapi/util - Add endpoints to convert hostlist expressions to an array of hostnames and vice versa:
  * 'POST /util/v0.0.44/hostnames'
  * 'POST /util/v0.0.44/hostlist'
* slurmrestd - Return HTTP_STATUS_CODE_ERROR_UNPROCESSABLE_CONTENT if querying an endpoint results in ESLURM_DATA_PATH_NOT_FOUND error.
* data_parser/v0.0.44 - Avoid hitting an xassert by return a DATA_TYPE_LIST on error when dumping a HOSTLIST_STRING without complex mode instead of returning DATA_TYPE_NULL.
* slurmdbd - Allow slurmdbd.conf to be owned by either SlurmUser or root instead of just SlurmUser.
* Add new DisableArchiveCommands parameter to slurmdbd.conf to disable "sacctmgr archive" commands.
* Prevent jobs submitted to multiple partitions from being killed when removing a partition from slurm.conf and restarting or reconfiguring the slurmctld. Pending jobs will remain pending with the remaining partitions. If a job's running partition, or all its partitions, are removed, the job will get killed with JobState=NODE_FAIL and Reason=PartitionDown. Jobs killed due to removing partitions from slurm.conf cannot be requeued.
* slurmctld - Debug Log connection manager diagnostics on receiving POSIX signal SIGPROF.
* slurmscriptd - Debug Log connection manager diagnostics on receiving POSIX signal SIGPROF.
* slurmstepd - Debug Log connection manager diagnostics on receiving POSIX signal SIGPROF.

* Allow external jobs to be submitted without requiring the current working directory be set.
* Fix srun ntasks calculation when nodes are requested using a min-max range and --ntasks is not used.
* Add CgroupSlice option to cgroup.conf to allow changing the default "system.slice" slice when starting slurmd and slurmstepd. If slurmd is started with a unit file, modifying the unit and adding Slice= into the [Service] section is needed. After making this change in cgroup.conf, the old slurmstepd scopes need to be terminated before starting slurmd again.
* Reject invalid dependencies with more than one dependency separator type.
* Reject dependency specifications with trailing garbage as invalid syntax.
* Mark afterok/afternotok dependencies on a non-existent remote job id as failed. Previously the dependency would remain unfulfilled indefinitely.
* Federated clusters update every registered remote dependency, including duplicates. This prevents jobs from pending forever due to some dependencies never being fulfilled.
* Fix aftercorr dependency on remote jobs in a federation.

* When using CR_CPU, prevent counting more cpus against a step then was allocated.
* slurmd - Load http_parser, url_parser and TLS plugins by default when CommunicationParameters=disable_http is not set in slurm.conf.

* Fix CPU over-allocation with enforce-binding when ntasks is specified.
* data_parser/v0.0.44 - Add nodes field to slurm_license_info_t parser.
* Add a new mode of operation to HRes (MODE_3). In this mode, resources are allocated on a per-node basis, with the total consumption being calculated from the most granular layer and summed up into the successively higher layers.
* scontrol - return error when attempting to add node to a non-existent topology block.
* Allow cloud nodes to dynamically set topology at registration with slurmd --conf="topology=...".
