Is node validation different from node registration, I dont think so

Updated job_create to used new descriptive return codes defined in common/slurm_protocol_errno.h

Fixed some code for zero size memory allocates, and zero size messages.

Changed backup controller to "lx01" in slurm.conf2
Changed remaing malloc/free functions to xmalloc/xfree.
Major revision to scontrol for new API use

Moved check of time (for no update) into controller.c.

Reconfigure API now working.

Minor cleanup (i.e. comments) on other APIs.

Completely reimplemented controller.c top to bottom to accomidate the new comm layer

needed) and WillRun (test if would execute immediately, default is to
actually run it).

specified at submit time start with a value of 1<<16 and DPCS uses
values 1 to 0xffffffff. This preclude effective use of a max job_id
in search function, which was able to quickly indicate that a job_id
requested by DPCS was not already in use. I added a job_id hash table
to restore quick job find operations.
Added check of packstr function to insure string would not go over
64k bytes, which is the limit for the protocol used.

also changed job_scheduler logic for performance. added partition
pointer (in addition to name) in the job records (also for performance).
the scheduler loop was getting bogged down otherwise with (very slow
strcmp calls). execution time of scheduler now almost nil.

Created new function to resync job bitmaps (when node table rebuilt).

Changed use of packstr everywhere (function redefined).

Converted packstr function to send string size as uint16_t (used to
	be uint32_t, which wasted space).

Modified src/api functions to build without warnings, mostly unused
	variables that were declared.
Changed un/packstr into separate unpackstr_ptr and unpackstr_xmalloc,
	the first returns a pointer into the buffer, the second allocates
	memory and copies the string into it.
Converted integers in various job/node/partition structures into
	uint32_t for ease of passing across network with API.

Added scheduler for prioritizing and scheduling pending jobs. - Jette

and api/submit.c respectively. Add defs to slurm.h and slurmlib.h.
Update function server code in job_mgr.c and controller.c. - Jette

Added defs for job cancel to header files
Fixed bug in node selection logic, added more logging. - Jette

Added function definitions to slurm.h for allocate (with job tables).
Added support for node allocations via job table entries. - Jette

Updated/added some options in config files for jobs
Added new parse function to bits_bytes.c, defined some new job management
functions in slurm.h
Changed functions to new parse function. Added lots more job management
functionality. - Jette

Updates to job management design work doc/txt/job_data.txt.
Added float support to parsing in bits_bytes.c.
Added job data structures to slurm.h and slurmlib.h.
Added some basic job support. New function job_mgr.c. - Jette

bits_bytes.c to bitstring.c. Fixed bug in bit_nset function. - Jette

Converted to "safe" memory mamagement routines in xmalloc.c, logging
in log.c, and broke up a couple of larger functions.

coding standards (remove mixed case names, 8 character indents, removed
some comments). Still need to do some work for nesting depth. - Jette
Renamed slurm config files to lower-case names.

accordingly. - Jette

show node using API and sockets to slurmctld.
Renamed Slurm_Admin.c to scontrol.c.
Moved node parsing to API library (from node_mgr.c) for applications. - Jette
