===================================
Library
-------
+ - Fixed a bug with the way the Subfiling VFD assigns I/O concentrators
+
+ During a file open operation, the Subfiling VFD determines the topology
+ of the application and uses that to select a subset of MPI ranks that
+ I/O will be forwarded to, called I/O concentrators. The code for this
+ had previously assumed that the parallel job launcher application (e.g.,
+ mpirun, srun, etc.) would distribute MPI ranks sequentially among a node
+ until all processors on that node have been assigned before going on to
+ the next node. When the launcher application mapped MPI ranks to nodes
+ in a different fashion, such as round-robin, this could cause the Subfiling
+ VFD to incorrectly map MPI ranks as I/O concentrators, leading to missing
+ subfiles.

- Fixed a file space allocation bug in the parallel library for chunked
