This commit fixes a race that can occur when two threads are in the
ugni progress function at the same time. This race occurs when one
thread calls GNI_PostDataProbeById then goes to sleep then another
thread calls GNI_PostDataProbeById then GNI_EpPostDataWaitById before
the other thread wakes up. If this happens the first thread will print
a warning on GNI_EpPostDataWaitById about no matching post.

This commit fixes two issues that can occur during a connection:
- Re-entry to connection progress from modex lookup. Added an
additional endpoint state that will keep the code from re-entering
the common endpoint create.
- Fixed a race between a process posting a directed datagram through
a send and a connection being progressed through opal_progress().
The progress code was not obtaining the endpoint lock before
attempting to update the endpoint. To limit the amount of code
changed for 2.0.1 this commit makes the endpoint lock recursive. In
a future update this may be changed.

This commit fixes a programming error when using an aries nic. The
documentation of ugni shows that only the local alignment restriction
for get was lifted on aries. There is still a remote address alignment
restriction.

This commit reduces the overhead of calling the ugni progress
function. It does the following:
- Check for new connections once every eight calls.
- Do not call remote smsg progress unless we are connected to at
least one remote peer.
- Do not call rdma progress unless at least one rdma fragment is
outstanding.
- Check endpoint wait list size before obtaining a lock.

Because of the removal of the linux memory component it is no longer
necessary to initialize the memory component in opal_init(). This
commit moves the initialization to the creation of the first rcache
component.

This commit rewrites both the mpool and rcache frameworks. Summary of
changes:
- Before this change a significant portion of the rcache
functionality lived in mpool components. This meant that it was
impossible to add a new memory pool to use with rdma networks
(ugni, openib, etc) without duplicating the functionality of an
existing mpool component. All the registration functionality has
been removed from the mpool and placed in the rcache framework.
- All registration cache mpools components (udreg, grdma, gpusm,
rgpusm) have been changed to rcache components. rcaches are
allocated and released in the same way mpool components were.
- It is now valid to pass NULL as the resources argument when
creating an rcache. At this time the gpusm and rgpusm components
support this. All other rcache components require non-NULL
resources.
- A new mpool component has been added: hugepage. This component
supports huge page allocations on linux.
- Memory pools are now allocated using "hints". Each mpool component
is queried with the hints and returns a priority. The current hints
supported are NULL (uses posix_memalign/malloc), page_size=x (huge
page mpool), and mpool=x.
- The sm mpool has been moved to common/sm. This reflects that the sm
mpool is specialized and not meant for any general
allocations. This mpool may be moved back into the mpool framework
if there is any objection.
- The opal_free_list_init arguments have been updated. The unused0
argument is not used to pass in the registration cache module. The
mpool registration flags are now rcache registration flags.
- All components have been updated to make use of the new framework
interfaces.
As this commit makes significant changes to both the mpool and rcache
frameworks both versions have been bumped to 3.0.0.

This commit fixes a race condition that can cause an endpoint to be
added to the wait list multiple times. To fix the issue an additional
check has been added to ensure the endpoint is not on the wait list
after the wait list lock is held. The wait list processing code has
also been updated to keep the wait list lock until all wait listed
endpoints have been handled. This reduces the chance that an endpoint
that is being processed by the wait list code is not re-added to the
list by a competing send.

The handling of RDMA get alignment in ugni BTL for Aries
(cray xc) was wrong, resulting in very poor bandwidth
for ugni BTL on aries.
Verified using osu_bw now gives sensible bandwidth on
Aries.

This commit adds an opal hash table to keep track of mapping between
process identifiers and ompi_proc_t's. This hash table is used by the
ompi_proc_by_name() function to lookup (in O(1) time) a given
process. This can be used by a BTL or other component to get a
ompi_proc_t when handling an incoming message from an as yet unknown
peer.
Additionally, this commit adds a new MCA variable to control the new
add_procs behavior: mpi_add_procs_cutoff. If the number of ranks in
the process falls below the threshold a ompi_proc_t is created for
every process. If the number of ranks is above the threshold then a
ompi_proc_t is only created for the local rank. The code needed to
generate additional ompi_proc_t's for a communicator is not yet
complete.

Some BTLs do not require local registration for some rdma
transactions. For example: inline put on openib, fma put on ugni. This
commit adds code to expose the local registration thresholds to BTL
users. Optimized code can take advantage of this information to
improve rdma performance.
Replace temporary environment variables with a MCA
parameter for the ugni btl. A user wishing to
use the ugni btl async. progress thread needs to
set the request_progress_thread param to true.
For example, using env. variable format:
export OMPI_MCA_btl_ugni_request_progress_thread=1
Honor enable_mpi_threads setting to enable the ugni btl
async progress thread. If the app doesn't request thread-multiple
the thread will not be created.
The old BTL interface provided support for RDMA through the use of
the btl_prepare_src and btl_prepare_dst functions. These functions were
expected to prepare as much of the user buffer as possible for the RDMA
operation and return a descriptor. The descriptor contained segment
information on the prepared region. The btl user could then pass the
RDMA segment information to a remote peer. Once the peer received that
information it then packed it into a similar descriptor on the other
side that could then be passed into a single btl_put or btl_get
operation.
Changes:
- Removed the btl_prepare_dst function. This reflects the fact that
RDMA operations no longer depend on "prepared" descriptors.
- Removed the btl_seg_size member. There is no need to btl's to
subclass the mca_btl_base_segment_t class anymore.

Before this change eager gets we retried on each progress loop. This commit
modifies the protocol to only retry eager gets when another eager get has
completed. This commit also cleans up some callback code that is no longer
needed.
This commit adds initial ugni thread safety support.
With this commit, sun thread tests (excepting MPI-2 RMA)
pass with various process counts and threads/process.
Also osu_latency_mt passes.
WHAT: Open our low-level communication infrastructure by moving all necessary components (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool) down in OPAL
All the components required for inter-process communications are currently deeply integrated in the OMPI layer. Several groups/institutions have express interest in having a more generic communication infrastructure, without all the OMPI layer dependencies. This communication layer should be made available at a different software level, available to all layers in the Open MPI software stack. As an example, our ORTE layer could replace the current OOB and instead use the BTL directly, gaining access to more reactive network interfaces than TCP. Similarly, external software libraries could take advantage of our highly optimized AM (active message) communication layer for their own purpose. UTK with support from Sandia, developped a version of Open MPI where the entire communication infrastucture has been moved down to OPAL (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool). Most of the moved components have been updated to match the new schema, with few exceptions (mainly BTLs where I have no way of compiling/testing them). Thus, the completion of this RFC is tied to being able to completing this move for all BTLs. For this we need help from the rest of the Open MPI community, especially those supporting some of the BTLs. A non-exhaustive list of BTLs that qualify here is: mx, portals4, scif, udapl, ugni, usnic.
