In connection with #3217, some memory errors were detected in the SLI parser (possibly also in the kernel) by @heshpdx, who also found fixes for some of them: - https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/issues/3217#issuecomment-2266283545...
The refractory time after a spike at time $t^*$ is defined for `iaf_psc_delta` and many other neurons via $$V_m(t) = V_{\text{reset}} \quad \text{for} \quad t^* \leq t < t^* +...
OpenMPI seems to contain a bug at least up to 4.1.6 which makes our new MPI Test setup complicated, because with the bug present, one cannot subprocess-mpirun anything after a...
This PR removes all bsshslm_2020 eprop models and pertaining examples from the core NEST code base to an extension module currently hosted at https://github.com/heplesser/bsshslmmodule. To do: - [ ] Small...
Apple Clang does not support the `-fopenmp` switch out of the box. Therefore, to build NEST with Apple Clang and without conda environments, one needs to install `libomp` (and some...
When building the [PyNEST-NG](https://github.com/heplesser/nest-simulator/tree/pynest-ng-adac) variant of NEST with MPI support, importing `nest` appears to lead to segfaults on Linux, see e.g., https://github.com/heplesser/nest-simulator/actions/runs/13130033031/job/36633256531#step:23:213. Invocation under control of `mpiexec` works. The problem...
Under special circumstances, our test setup does not detect crashed tests and reports success where it should not. This problem has occurred during PyNEST-NG testing. This happens because we use...
Disconnect() needs revision, both the precise call semantics and the documentation. Some tests may then require adjustment. Consider the following example: ```python n = nest.Create('parrot_neuron', n=2) nest.Connect(n, n, syn_spec='static_synapse') nest.Connect(n,...
Several tests appear to contain deprecated features, especially from NumPy, see https://github.com/nest/nest-simulator/actions/runs/12652671066/job/35255841038#step:23:7804. We should fix these to avoid problems when the deprecated features are removed.
When running `make installcheck` on NEST on my computer (and some others), pytest issues warnings about `PytestUnknownMarkWarning:Unknown pytest.mark.skipif_missing_threads - is this a typo?` even though this marker is defined in...
