Package: boinc-client
Version: 7.4.23+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream
Dear mantainer,
can you add exclusive application for gpu only, in sense that an app excludes gpu computing but not cpu.
-- Package-specific info:
-- Contents of /etc/default/boinc-client:
# This file is /etc/default/boinc-client, it is a configuration file for the
# /etc/init.d/boinc-client init script.
# Set this to 1 to enable and to 0 to disable the init script.
ENABLED="1"
# Set this to 1 to enable advanced scheduling of the BOINC core client and
# all its sub-processes (reduces the impact of BOINC on the system's
# performance).
SCHEDULE="1"
# The BOINC core client will be started with the permissions of this user.
BOINC_USER="boinc"
# This is the data directory of the BOINC core client.
BOINC_DIR="/var/lib/boinc-client"
# This is the location of the BOINC core client, that the init script uses.
# If you do not want to use the client program provided by the boinc-client
# package, you can specify here an alternative client program.
#BOINC_CLIENT="/usr/local/bin/boinc"
BOINC_CLIENT="/usr/bin/boinc"
# Here you can specify additional options to pass to the BOINC core client.
# Type 'boinc --help' or 'man boinc' for a full summary of allowed options.
#BOINC_OPTS="--allow_remote_gui_rpc"
BOINC_OPTS=""
# Scheduling options
# Set SCHEDULE="0" if prefering to run with upstream default priority
# settings.
# Nice levels. When systems are truly busy, e.g. because of too many active
# scientific applications started by the boinc client, there is a chance for
# the boinc client not to be granted sufficient opportunity to check for
# scientific applications to be alive and make the (wrong) decision to
# terminate the scientific app. This is particularly an issue with many
# apps started in parallel on modern multi-core systems and extra overheads
# for the download and uploads of files with the project servers. Another
# concern is the latency for scientific applications to communicate with the
# graphics card, which should be low. All such values should be set and
# controled from within the BOINC client. The Debian init script also sets
# extra constrains via chrt on real time performance and via ionice on
# I/O performance, which is beyond the regular BOINC client. It then was
# too easy to use that code to also constrain minimal nice levels. We still
# think about how to best distinguish GPU applications from regular apps.
BOINC_NICE_CLIENT=10
BOINC_NICE_APP_DEFAULT=19
#BOINC_NICE_APP_GPU=5 # not yet used
# ionice classes. See manpage of ionice (1) in the util-linux package.

#BOINC_IONICE_APP_DEFAULT=3 # idle, not yet used
#BOINC_IONICE_APP_GPU=2 # best effort, not yet used
