* Changes in Slurm 19.05.4
==========================
-- Don't allow empty string as a reservation name; generate a name if empty
string is provided.
-- Fix salloc segfault when using --no-shell option.
-- Fix divide by zero when normalizing partition priorities.
-- Restore ability to set JobPriorityFactor to 0 on a partition.
-- Fix multi-partition non-normalized job priorities.
-- Adjust precedence between --mem-per-cpu and --mem-per-node to enforce
them as mutually exclusive. Specifying either on the command line will
now explicitly override any value inherited through the environment.
-- Always print node's version, if it exists, in scontrol show nodes.
-- sbatch - ensure SLURM_NTASKS_PER_NODE is exported when --ntasks-per-node
is set.
-- slurmctld - fix memory leak when using DebugFlags=Reservation.
-- Reset --mem and --mem-per-cpu options correctly when using --mem-per-gpu.
-- Use correct function signature for step_set_env() in gres plugin interface.
-- Restore pre-19.05 hostname handling behavior for AllocNodes by always
truncating to just the host portion and dropping any domain name portion
returned by gethostbyaddr().
-- Fix abort initializing a configuration without acct_gather.conf.
-- Fix GRES binding and CLOUD nodes GRES setup regressions.
-- Make sview work with glib2 v2.62.
-- Fix slurmctld abort when in developer mode and submitting to multiple
partitions with a bad QOS and not enforcing QOS.
-- Enforce PART_NODES if only PartitionName is specified.
-- Fix slurmd -G functionality.
-- Fix build on 32-bit systems.
-- Remove duplicate log entry on update job.
-- sched/backfill - fix the estimated sched_nodes for multi-part jobs.
-- slurm.spec - fix pmix_version global context macro.
-- Fix cons_tres topology logic incorrectly evaluating insufficient resoruces.
-- Fix job "--switches=count@time" option handling in cons_tres topology.
-- scontrol - allow changes to the WorkDir for pending jobs.
-- Enable coordinators to delete users if they only belong to accounts that
the coordinator is over.
-- Fix regression on update from older versions with DefMemPerCPU.
-- Fix issues with --gpu-bind while using cgroups.
-- Suspend nodes after being down for SuspendTime.
-- Fix rebooting nodes from skipping nextstate states on boot.
-- Fix regression in reservation creation logic from 19.05.3 which would
incorrectly deny certain valid reservations from being created.
-- slurmdbd - process sacct/sacctmgr job queries from older clients correctly.
