+
+This report continues the ongoing FreeBSD HPC Ports Modernization initiative, which aims to make FreeBSD a practical and maintainable platform for modern high-performance computing (HPC) software stacks.
+
+Previous work focused on updating the core scheduler and runtime stack by modernizing package:sysutils/slurm-wlm[] and introducing standalone ports for package:net/pmix[] and package:net/prrte[].
+During this quarter the focus shifted toward expanding the surrounding HPC ecosystem, improving integration between components, and upstreaming portability fixes discovered during the porting process.
+
+The long-term goal is to provide a coherent HPC software environment in the FreeBSD Ports Collection that resembles what users expect on Linux-based HPC systems while remaining maintainable within the FreeBSD ecosystem.
+
+==== Work completed
+
+* Continued tracking upstream releases of package:sysutils/slurm-wlm[], keeping the FreeBSD port current with the latest upstream versions.
+  Recent updates confirm that Slurm can successfully schedule and execute jobs on FreeBSD with only a minimal patchset.
+* Introduced package:net/ucx[], providing the Unified Communication X framework used by modern MPI implementations for high-performance communication.
+* Added package:benchmarks/py-reframe-hpc[], enabling regression testing and validation workflows commonly used on production HPC clusters.
+* Continued improving interoperability between package:net/openmpi[], package:net/ucx[], package:net/pmix[], and package:net/prrte[] within the FreeBSD Ports Collection.
+
+==== Work in progress
+
+* Porting package:sysutils/mpifileutils[] and its dependency stack (package:devel/libcircle[], package:devel/lwgrp[], package:devel/dtcmp[]) to provide MPI-parallel file utilities commonly used on large HPC filesystems.
+* Upstreaming portability fixes discovered during the porting process to projects such as UCX and mpifileutils, reducing the need for FreeBSD-specific patches.
+* Ongoing collaboration with SchedMD developers to upstream improvements discovered while maintaining Slurm on FreeBSD.
+* Coordination with the OpenMPI ports maintainer to improve integration between OpenMPI and modern networking frameworks such as UCX.
+
+==== Future plans
+
+* Continue expanding the HPC software ecosystem available in the FreeBSD Ports Collection.
+* Further reduce local patchsets by contributing portability fixes upstream whenever possible.
+* Develop documentation describing how the Slurm + OpenMPI + PMIx + PRRTE + UCX stack can be deployed together on FreeBSD, lowering the barrier for users who want to experiment with HPC workloads on the platform.
+* Provide example configurations and integration guidance so that FreeBSD can serve as a realistic development and testing environment for HPC software.
