1. fix a race condition whereby a proc's output could trigger an event prior to the other outputs being setup, thus c ausing the IOF to declare the proc "terminated" too early. This was really rare, but could happen.
2. add a new "timestamp-output" option that timestamp's each line of output
3. add a new "output-filename" option that redirects each proc's output to a separate rank-named file.
4. add a new "xterm" option that redirects the output of the specified ranks to a separate xterm window.

SIGCONT to the a.outs. By default, they are not forwarded and
the behavior remains as it has always been. However, if one
runs with --mca orte_forward_job_control 1, then mpirun will
catch those two signals and forward them to the orteds which
will deliver them to the a.outs. We have had requests for
this feature.

y combination of comma-separated values and ranges. Daemons will use the first port in the range, MPI procs will use the other ports in the range assuming that they know their node rank in time and enough ports were specified.
NOTE: this capability only works under specific conditions. I will outline more about this in a note to devel as the remainder of the implementation progresses. For now, the only environment where this works is slurm. The linear routed module has also been adjusted to work with static ports so that all messaging flows strictly through the topology, including the initial daemon callback - thus limiting the number of sockets opened by mpirun.

If the --wdir option is given, check to see if the user provided a relative path. If so, convert it to an absolute path. This is needed to maintain consistent behavior across environements. Some environments automatically chdir to your current working directory when launching the remote orted, while others (e.g., ssh) don't. This levels the playing field and reduces user surprise.

The modified cmd line options are:
--report-uri x where x is either '-' for stdout, '+' for stderr, or a filename
--report-pid x where x is the same as above
For orte-top, you can now provide either a pid or a uri (which allows connection to remote mpiruns), specified either directly or with a "file:x" option as per mpirun's ompi-server option.
Note: I did not add a report-pid option to ompi-server as it probably wouldn't be useful - the report-uri option works as well, and allows remote access (which is likely the normal way it would be used).
This commit was SVN r20168.
Also, per chat with Jeff, modified the Makefile.am's of a few orte tools so that they were consistent in the way we generate the ompi-equivalent cmds.

Basically, the remaining problem turned out to be:
1. closing stdout/stderr during orte_finalize of mpirun
2. inadvertently setting up a write event on fd = -1
3. devising a scheme to more accurately track when the stdin write event was active vs closed so it only got released once
This passed prelim MTT testing by Jeff and Tim, but should soak for awhile before migrating to 1.3.

Enable one mpirun to act as the server for another mpirun when doing MPI_Publish_name and its associated operations. The user is responsible, of course, for ensuring that the mpirun acting as a server outlives any mpiruns using it in that capacity.
Add a cmd line option to mpirun --report-pid that prints out mpirun's pid. Allow the --ompi-server option to now take pid:# (or PID:#) of the mpirun to be used as the server, and then look that pid up by searching the local mpirun contact infos for it.

1. minor modification to include two new opal MCA params:
(a) opal_profile: outputs what components were selected by each framework
currently enabled for most, but not all, frameworks
(b) opal_profile_file: name of file that contains profile info required
for modex
2. introduction of two new tools:
(a) ompi-probe: MPI process that simply calls MPI_Init/Finalize with
opal_profile set. Also reports back the rml IP address for all
interfaces on the node
(b) ompi-profiler: uses ompi-probe to create the profile_file, also
reports out a summary of what framework components are actually
being used to help with configuration options
3. modification of the grpcomm basic component to utilize the
profile file in place of the modex where possible
4. modification of orterun so it properly sees opal mca params and
handles opal_profile correctly to ensure we don't get its profile
5. similar mod to orted as for orterun
6. addition of new test that calls orte_init followed by calls to
grpcomm.barrier
This is all completely benign unless actively selected. At the moment, it only supports modex-less launch for openib-based systems. Minor mod to the TCP btl would be required to enable it as well, if people are interested. Similarly, anyone interested in enabling other BTL's for modex-less operation should let me know and I'll give you the magic details.
This seems to significantly improve scalability provided the file can be locally located on the nodes. I'm looking at an alternative means of disseminating the info (perhaps in launch message) as an option for removing that constraint.

1. coordination of job completion notification to include a requirement for both waitpid detection AND notification that all iof pipes have been closed by the app
2. change of all IOF read and write events to be non-persistent so they can properly be shutdown and restarted only when required
3. addition of a delay (currently set to 10ms) before restarting the stdin read event. This was required to ensure that the stdout, stderr, and stddiag read events had an opportunity to be serviced in scenarios where large files are attached to stdin.
This commit was SVN r20064.
1. completely and cleanly separates responsibilities between the HNP, orted, and tool components.
2. removes all wireup messaging during launch and shutdown.
3. maintains flow control for stdin to avoid large-scale consumption of memory by orteds when large input files are forwarded. This is done using an xon/xoff protocol.
4. enables specification of stdin recipients on the mpirun cmd line. Allowed options include rank, "all", or "none". Default is rank 0.
5. creates a new MPI_Info key "ompi_stdin_target" that supports the above options for child jobs. Default is "none".
6. adds a new tool "orte-iof" that can connect to a running mpirun and display the output. Cmd line options allow selection of any combination of stdout, stderr, and stddiag. Default is stdout.
7. adds a new mpirun and orte-iof cmd line option "tag-output" that will tag each line of output with process name and stream ident. For example, "[1,0]<stdout>this is output"
This is not intended for the 1.3 release as it is a major change requiring considerable soak time.

The segv was caused by the fact that we don't really know which daemon failed to start (at least, in most cases), so we didn't set a pointer to the aborted proc object. All we really wanted, though, was to ensure that mpirun returned a non-zero exit status, so the fix was to simply return the default error status.

Add --display-devel-map and --display-devel-alloc to display all the detailed info we used to provide - it is only of use/interest to developers anyway and confuses users.

Theoretically, any PLM could use this - but in reality, all of them except rsh/ssh already leave the session attached anyway.

Provide support for four MPIR extensions that allow specification of debugger daemon executable, argv for the debugger daemon, whether or not to forward debugger daemon IO, and whether or not debugger daemon will piggy-back on ORTE OOB network. Last is not yet implemented.
No change in behavior or operation occurs unless (a) the debugger specifically utilizes the extensions and, for co-locate while running, the user specifically enables the capability via an MCA param. Two of the MPIR extensions supported here are used in a widely-used debugger for a large-scale installation. The other two extensions are new and being utilized in prototype work by several debuggers for possible future release.

* Make the creation of the build dir for the man pages a bit more
robust (thanks to suggestions from Ralf W.).
* Only distribute the .Xin files, not the .X man pages themselves.
* Make the .X files depend on opal_config.h so that if you re-run
configure and change opal_config.h (e.g., a new version), the man
pages should get rebuilt.
* Man pages are now cleaned with "distclean", not "maintainer-clean".
* Fix a typo in opal_crs.7in.
* Udpate make_dist_tarball to update "date" in the VERSION file.
* Make make_dist_tarball a bit friendlier to hg checkouts.

This needs some soak time to ensure we haven't opened any race conditions. I tried to loop everything in the shutdown procedure through that trigger event call to ensure it all goes through the one-time locks as it did before so that someone hitting ctrl-c when we are already shutting down shouldn't cause problems. Just want to let people use it for awhile to verify.
This commit was SVN r19159.
During the discussion of MPI-2 functionality, it was pointed out by Aurelien that there was an inherent race condition between startup of ompi-server and mpirun. Specifically, if someone started ompi-server to run in the background as part of a script, and then immediately executed mpirun, it was possible that an MPI proc could attempt to contact the server (or that mpirun could try to read the server's contact file before the server is running and ready.
At that time, we discussed createing a new tool "ompi-wait-server" that would wait for the server to be running, and/or probe to see if it is running and return true/false. However, rather than create yet another tool, it seemed just as effective to add the functionality to mpirun.
Thus, this commit creates two new mpirun cmd line flags (hey, you can never have too many!):
--wait-for-server : instructs mpirun to ping the server to see if it responds. This causes mpirun to execute an rml.ping to the server's URI with an appropriate timeout interval - if the ping isn't successful, mpirun attempts it again.
--server-wait-time xx : sets the ping timeout interval to xx seconds. Note that mpirun will attempt to ping the server twice with this timeout, so we actually wait for twice this time. Default is 10 seconds, which should be plenty of time.
This has only lightly been tested. It works if the server is present, and outputs a nice error message if it cannot be contacted. I have not tested the race condition case.

Standardize the handling of the orte launch agent option across PLMs. This has been a consistent complaint I have received - each PLM would register its own MCA param to get input on the launch agent for remote nodes (in fact, one or two didn't, but most did). This would then get handled in various and contradictory ways.
Some PLMs would accept only a one-word input. Others accepted multi-word args such as "valgrind orted", but then some would error by putting any prefix specified on the cmd line in front of the incorrect argument.
For example, while using the rsh launcher, if you specified "valgrind orted" as your launch agent and had "--prefix foo" on you cmd line, you would attempt to execute "ssh foo/valgrind orted" - which obviously wouldn't work.
This was all -very- confusing to users, who had to know which PLM was being used so they could even set the right mca param in the first place! And since we don't warn about non-recognized or non-used mca params, half of the time they would wind up not doing what they thought they were telling us to do.
To solve this problem, we did the following:
1. removed all mca params from the individual plms for the launch agent
2. added a new mca param "orte_launch_agent" for this purpose. To further simplify for users, this comes with a new cmd line option "--launch-agent" that can take a multi-word string argument. The value of the param defaults to "orted".
3. added a PLM base function that processes the orte_launch_agent value and adds the contents to a provided argv array. This can subsequently be harvested at-will to handle multi-word values
4. modified the PLMs to use this new function. All the PLMs except for the rsh PLM required very minor change - just called the function and moved on. The rsh PLM required much larger changes as - because of the rsh/ssh cmd line limitations - we had to correctly prepend any provided prefix to the correct argv entry.
5. added a new opal_argv_join_range function that allows the caller to "join" argv entries between two specified indices
Please let me know of any problems. I tried to make this as clean as possible, but cannot compile all PLMs to ensure all is correct.
