Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

- Check, whether the compiler supports __builtin_clz (count leading
zeroes);
if so, use it for bit-operations like opal_cube_dim and opal_hibit.
Implement two versions of power-of-two.
In case of opal_next_poweroftwo, this reduces the average execution
time from 83 cycles to 4 cycles (Intel Nehalem, icc, -O2, inlining,
measured rdtsc, with loop over 2^27 values).
Numbers for other functions are similar (but of course heavily depend
on the usage, e.g. opal_hibit() with a start of 4 does not save
much). The bsr instruction on AMD Opteron is also not as fast.
- Replace various places where the next power-of-two is computed.
Tested on Intel Nehalem Cluster with openib, compilers GNU-4.6.1 and
Intel-12.0.4 using mpi_testsuite -t "Collective" with 128 processes.

This commit brings in two major things:
1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.

This commit represents a bunch of work on a Mercurial side branch. As
such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly
long.
= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

This commit brings in two major things:
1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

This commit represents a bunch of work on a Mercurial side branch. As
such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly
long.
= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

This commit brings in two major things:
1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

This commit represents a bunch of work on a Mercurial side branch. As
such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly
long.
= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

orte_show_help ( " help-mpi-btl-openib.txt " , " invalid mca param value " ,
This commit brings in two major things:
1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

orte_show_help ( " help-mpi-btl-openib.txt " , " invalid mca param value " ,
This commit brings in two major things:
1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.

* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.

* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what

argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.

This commit brings in two major things:
1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

Bring over all the work from the /tmp/ib-hw-detect branch. In
addition to my design and testing, it was conceptually approved by
Gil, Gleb, Pasha, Brad, and Galen. Functionally [probably somewhat
lightly] tested by Galen. We may still have to shake out some bugs
during the next few months, but it seems to be working for all the
cases that I can throw at it.
Here's a summary of the changes from that branch:
* Move MCA parameter registration to a new file (btl_openib_mca.c):
* Properly check the retun status of registering MCA params
* Check for valid values of MCA parameters
* Make help strings better
* Otherwise, the only default value of an MCA param that was
changed was max_btls; it went from 4 to -1 (meaning: use all
available)
* Properly prototyped internal functions in _component.c
* Made a bunch of functions static that didn't need to be public
* Renamed to remove "mca_" prefix from static functions
* Call new MCA param registration function
* Call new INI file read/lookup/finalize functions
* Updated a bunch of macros to be "BTL_" instead of "ORTE_"
* Be a little more consistent with return values
* Handle -1 for the max_btls MCA param
* Fixed a free() that should have been an OBJ_RELEASE()
* Some re-indenting
* Added INI-file parsing
* New flex file: btl_openib_ini.l
* New default HCA params .ini file (probably to be expanded over
time by other HCA vendors)
* Added more show_help messages for parsing problems
* Read in INI files and cache the values for later lookup
* When component opens an HCA, lookup to see if any corresponding
values were found in the INI files (ID'ed by the HCA vendor_id
and vendor_part_id)
* Added btl_openib_verbose MCA param that shows what the INI-file
stuff does (e.g., shows which MTU your HCA ends up using)
* Added btl_openib_hca_param_files as a colon-delimited list of INI
files to check for values during startup (in order,
left-to-right, just like the MCA base directory param).
* MTU is currently the only value supported in this framework.
* It is not a fatal error if we don't find params for the HCA in
the INI file(s). Instead, just print a warning. New MCA param
btl_openib_warn_no_hca_params_found can be used to disable
printing the warning.
* Add MTU to peer negotiation when making a connection
* Exchange maximum MTU; select the lesser of the two

This commit represents a bunch of work on a Mercurial side branch. As
such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly
long.
= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

This commit brings in two major things:
1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(

/* round mid_qp_size to smallest power of two */
- Check, whether the compiler supports __builtin_clz (count leading
zeroes);
if so, use it for bit-operations like opal_cube_dim and opal_hibit.
Implement two versions of power-of-two.
In case of opal_next_poweroftwo, this reduces the average execution
time from 83 cycles to 4 cycles (Intel Nehalem, icc, -O2, inlining,
measured rdtsc, with loop over 2^27 values).
Numbers for other functions are similar (but of course heavily depend
on the usage, e.g. opal_hibit() with a start of 4 does not save
much). The bsr instruction on AMD Opteron is also not as fast.
- Replace various places where the next power-of-two is computed.
Tested on Intel Nehalem Cluster with openib, compilers GNU-4.6.1 and
Intel-12.0.4 using mpi_testsuite -t "Collective" with 128 processes.
This commit was SVN r25270.
