Ticket 1392 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1392
After much work by Jeff and myself, and quite a lot of discussion, it has become clear that we simply cannot resolve the infinite loops caused by RML-involved subsystems calling orte_output. The original rationale for the change to orte_output has also been reduced by shifting the output of XML-formatted vs human readable messages to an alternative approach.
I have globally replaced the orte_output/ORTE_OUTPUT calls in the code base, as well as the corresponding .h file name. I have test compiled and run this on the various environments within my reach, so hopefully this will prove minimally disruptive.

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 was SVN r16968.
Cleanup ALL instances of output involving the printing of orte_process_name_t structures using the ORTE_NAME_ARGS macro so that the number of fields and type of data match. Replace those values with a new macro/function pair ORTE_NAME_PRINT that outputs a string (using the new thread safe data capability) so that any future changes to the printing of those structures can be accomplished with a change to a single point.
Note that I could not possibly find outputs that directly print the orte_process_name_t fields, but only dealt with those that used ORTE_NAME_ARGS. Hence, you may still have a few outputs that bark during compilation. Also, I could only verify those that fall within environments I can compile on, so other environments may yield some minor warnings.

You will not see any impact from this change unless you use the syntax described in ticket #1023. I've tried as many of the RAS components as possible and saw no problem - there may be issues with other RAS components that would not compile on any of my systems. Anything that appears should be trivial to fix.
This commit was SVN r15427.
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).

- Simplified the logic of the ras modules by moving the attribute handling into the base allocation function. This allows us to decide how to allocate based on the situation, and solves some of the allocation problems we were having with comm_spawn.
- moved the proxy component into the base. This was done because we always want to call the proxy functions if we are not on a HNP regardless of the attributes passed.
- Got rid of the hostfile component. What little logic was in it was moved into the base to deal with other circumstances. The hostfile information is currently being propagated into the registry by the RDS, so we just use what is already in the registry.
- renamed some slurm function so that they have the proper prefix. Not strictly necessary as they were static, but it makes debugging much easier.
- fixed a buglet in the round_robin rmaps where we would return an error when really no error occured.
I tried to make proper corrections to all the ras modules, but I cannot test all of them.
This commit was SVN r12202.
This change does a couple of things:
1. Since the USE_PARENT_ALLOC attribute is a directive about regarding allocation of resources to a job, it more properly should be an attribute of the RAS. Change the name to reflect that and move the attribute define to the ras_types.h file.
2. Add the attributes list to the RMAPS map_job interface. This provides us with the desired flexibility to dynamically specify directives for mapping. The system will - in the absence of any attribute-based directive - default to the values provided in the MCA parameters (either from environment or command-line interface).
This commit was SVN r12164.
Fix the problem observed by multiple people that comm_spawned children were (once again) being mapped onto the same nodes as their parents. This was caused by going through the RAS a second time, thus overwriting the mapper's bookkeeping that told RMAPS where it had left off.
To solve this - and to continue moving forward on the ORTE development - we introduce the concept of attributes to control the behavior of the RM frameworks. I defined the attributes and a list of attributes as new ORTE data types to make it easier for people to pass them around (since they are now fundamental to the system, and therefore we will be packing and unpacking them frequently). Thus, all the functions to manipulate attributes can be implemented and debugged in one place.
I used those capabilities in two places:
1. Added an attribute list to the rmgr.spawn interface.
2. Added an attribute list to the ras.allocate interface. At the moment, the only attribute I modified the various RAS components to recognize is the USE_PARENT_ALLOCATION one (as defined in rmgr_types.h).
So the RAS components now know how to reuse an allocation. I have debugged this under rsh, but it now needs to be tested on a wider set of platforms.

The logs from this branch are much more descriptive than I will put
here (including a *really* long description from last night). Here's
the short version:
- fixed some broken implementations in ras and rmaps
- "orterun --host ..." now works and has clearly defined semantics
(this was the impetus for the branch and all these fixes -- LANL had
a requirement for --host to work for 1.0)
- there is still a little bit of cleanup left to do post-1.0 (we got
correct functionality for 1.0 -- we did not fix bad implementations
that still "work")
- rds/hostfile and ras/hostfile handshaking
- singleton node segment assignments in stage1
- remove the default hostfile (no need for it anymore with the
localhost ras component)
- clean up pls components to avoid duplicate ras mapping queries
- [possible] -bynode/-byslot being specific to a single app context

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, instead of the deprecated version.
* Work around dumbness in modern AC_INIT that requires the version
number to be set at autoconf time (instead of at configure time, as
it was before). Set the version number, minus the subversion r number,
at autoconf time. Override the internal variables to include the r
number (if needed) at configure time. Basically, the right thing
should always happen. The only place it might not is the version
reported as part of configure --help will not have an r number.
* Since AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE taks a list of options, no need to specify
them in all the Makefile.am files.
* Addes support for subdir-objects, meaning that object files are put
in the directory containing source files, even if the Makefile.am is
in another directory. This should start making it feasible to
reduce the number of Makefile.am files we have in the tree, which
will greatly reduce the time to run autogen and configure.
