1. The send path get shorter. The BTL is allowed to return > 0 to specify that the
descriptor was pushed to the networks, and that the memory attached to it is
available again for the upper layer. The MCA_BTL_DES_SEND_ALWAYS_CALLBACK flag
can be used by the PML to force the BTL to always trigger the callback.
Unmodified BTL will continue to work as expected, as they will return OMPI_SUCCESS
which force the PML to have exactly the same behavior as before. Some BTLs have
been modified: self, sm, tcp, mx.
2. Add send immediate interface to BTL.
The idea is to have a mechanism of allowing the BTL to take advantage of
send optimizations such as the ability to deliver data "inline". Some
network APIs such as Portals allow data to be sent using a "thin" event
without packing data into a memory descriptor. This interface change
allows the BTL to use such capabilities and allows for other optimizations
in the future. All existing BTLs except for Portals and sm have this interface
set to NULL.

NOTE: the code provided by PANASAS includes a "switch" that they left incomplete - it doesn't cover all possibilities. Since the value being switched is an enum, this causes problems for the compiler. I added the missing values, but - since Panasas felt they could be ignored - had the switch generate an error if those cases ever occurred.

* Include all the stuff that is necessary for running autogen.sh in a
distribution tarball.
* Remove from config/Makefile.am's EXTRA_DIST that which is
automatically included in the tarball in recent versions of
Automake (i.e., all the m4 files that are acincluded).
* Make ROMIO's configure script look for something that is actually
included in the tarball.

idea at the time, but led to logistical difficulties in importing new
versions of ROMIO:
* We are effectively eliminating the ROMIO file prefix rule hacks in
the ROMIO component, which create symlinks from foo.c to
io_romio_foo.c. In reality, the file name conflict potential will
be small.
* Additionally, we are effectively eliminating the ROMIO function
prefix rule in the ROMIO component. This is another place where
there are generally problems with the merge up new versions of ROMIO
and/or patches from the user community (for their own local builds).
In reality, since other major MPI implementations provides the same
exact symbols, it won't cause any practical problems for users.
In return, we make it ''much'' simpler to apply ROMIO patches to Open
MPI. The problem right now is that any patch will have filenames such
as ad_panfs.c, but Open MPI will only have io_romio_ad_panfs.c, making
things extremely difficult for users. I believe, for example, that
this would make it possible for LANL to have applied their patches
without too much hassle on either their part or our part. It will
also make things easier for OMPI when we/they want to do the next
ROMIO upgrade (this was one of the sources of problems on each
upgrade).

Per default this feature is disabled, to enable it you need to
configure with --enable-visibility and obviously you need a compiler

same "restrict" check as the top-level OMPI configure.ac script so
that it will guarantee to always get the same result. Therefore, the
#define for restrict will always have the same value in both
opal_config.h and romioconf.h, and we get 7 less warnings (6 in the IO
ROMIO component, 1 in ROMIO itself) when compiling with icc on Linux
(because PAC_C_RESTRICT and AC_C_RESTRICT would get different values
for the "restrict" #define in this case).

Per discussions with Brian and Ralph, make a slight correction in
where components are installed. Use $pkglibdir, not $libdir/openmpi,
so that when compiled in the orte trunk, components are installed to
the right directory (because the component search patch is checking
$pkglibdir).

The top-level OMPI configure script already checks for "restrict" and
will issue a #define for it. PAC_C_RESTRICT would also check for
restrict, but sometimes come up with a different answer than the
top-level OMPI configure script, thereby resulting in conflicting
#define's for "restrict" (e.g., icc 9.0/9.1 on linux x86-64).
So it's easiest just to remove this test from ROMIO's configure.in
script.

things I found:
- Locking should prevent it from happening (I think), but there was a
race condition in the component progress -- a callback could be
triggered that would free the request before it was off the outstanding
requests list.
- When pulling a request off the component free list, make sure to
reinitialize the free_called state on the IO request. This was
what was causing Edgar's failures
- In the request cleanup code, pull the request out of the per-
component free list before returning to the free list. This
probably would cause asserts to fire, although it looks like
I wrote the loops such that it would have been memory safe if
the asserts didn't fire. Not really sure why I did that, but
let's try it again...
This should go to the v1.0 and v1.1 branches.

- We had a bad conditional choice, such that asking for pvfs2 would
result in pvfs trying to build as well, which was going to fail.
- We didn't try to link in the libray for PVFS2's adio component.
- We were clobbering romio_flags, so it was impossible to pass
flags to romio (like the selection of filesystems)
This commit was SVN r9854.
- LDFLAGS set at the top level of Open MPI were not passed to the
ROMIO configure script
- If ROMIO was explicitly required (with --enable-io-romio) and
not able to be built, abort OMPI's configure script.
This needs to go to the v1.0 and v1.1 branches.

to let the PML (or io, more generally the low level request manager)
to have it's own release function (what was before the req_fini). This
function will only be called from the low level while the req_free will
be called from the upper level (MPI layer) in order to mark the request
as not used by the user anymore.
From the request point of view the requests will be marked as inactive
everytime we read their status (true for persistent as well). As
MPI_REQUEST_NULL is already marked as inactive, the test and wait functions
are simpler. The drawback is that now we have to change in the
ompi_request_{test|wait} the req_status of the request once we get it's
status.

anything but mpi.h in the ROMIO build, we don't need most of the flags
anyway...

- fall back to compile test for windows paffinity component
when cross compiling
- fall back to platform guess when checking for threads having
different pids with pthreads (yes on linux, no elsewhere)
- pass the proper host, target, and build flags to the
ROMIO configure script
With these changes, cross-compiling should be possible with the exception
of the Fortran 77 and Fortran 90 bindings. Fortran 77 can be cross-
compiled if cache values are provided for type sizes and alignment.

the script did not complete successfully
- ROMIO likes to default to using the system compiler if no compiler is
specified. This can lead to using a different compiler for ROMIO as
for Open MPI, which is not always a good thing. Reset the default to
behave the same way Open MPI does.
