Adds several new mpirun options:
* -bysocket - assign ranks on a node by socket. Effectively load balances the procs assigned to a node across the available sockets. Note that ranks can still be bound to a specific core within the socket, or to the entire socket - the mapping is independent of the binding.
* -bind-to-socket - bind each rank to all the cores on the socket to which they are assigned.
* -bind-to-core - currently the default behavior (maintained from prior default)
* -npersocket N - launch N procs for every socket on a node. Note that this implies we know how many sockets are on a node. Mpirun will determine its local values. These can be overridden by provided values, either via MCA param or in a hostfile
Similar features/options are provided at the board level for multi-board nodes.

This commit was SVN r21791.
Revamp the affinity detection/set procedure in mpi_init to correctly detect when we have already been bound to processors, given the revised understanding of paffinity_get. Add a new paffinity macro to make checking for already bound a little nicer.
This commit was SVN r21402.
The prior ompi_proc_t structure had a uint8_t flag field in it, where only one
bit was used to flag that a proc was "local". In that context, "local" was
constrained to mean "local to this node".
This commit provides a greater degree of granularity on the term "local", to include tests
to see if the proc is on the same socket, PC board, node, switch, CU (computing
unit), and cluster.
Add #define's to designate which bits stand for which local condition. This
was added to the OPAL layer to avoid conflicting with the proposed movement of
the BTLs. To make it easier to use, a set of macros have been defined - e.g.,
OPAL_PROC_ON_LOCAL_SOCKET - that test the specific bit. These can be used in
the code base to clearly indicate which sense of locality is being considered.
All locations in the code base that looked at the current proc_t field have
been changed to use the new macros.
Also modify the orte_ess modules so that each returns a uint8_t (to match the
ompi_proc_t field) that contains a complete description of the locality of this
proc. Obviously, not all environments will be capable of providing such detailed
info. Thus, getting a "false" from a test for "on_local_socket" may simply
indicate a lack of knowledge.

See opal/mca/paffinity/paffinity.h for explanation as to the physical vs logical nature of the params used in the API.
Fixes trac:1435
This commit was SVN r19391.
The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 1435 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1435
* add "register" function to mca_base_component_t
* converted coll:basic and paffinity:linux and paffinity:solaris to
use this function
* we'll convert the rest over time (I'll file a ticket once all
this is committed)
* add 32 bytes of "reserved" space to the end of mca_base_component_t
and mca_base_component_data_2_0_0_t to make future upgrades
[slightly] easier
* new mca_base_component_t size: 196 bytes
* new mca_base_component_data_2_0_0_t size: 36 bytes
* MCA base version bumped to v2.0
* '''We now refuse to load components that are not MCA v2.0.x'''
* all MCA frameworks versions bumped to v2.0
* be a little more explicit about version numbers in the MCA base
* add big comment in mca.h about versioning philosophy

Any components not in the trunk, but in one of the effected frameworks *must* be
updated. Contact the list, look at the RFC, or look at the diff for how to do this.
Sorry for the early commit of this, but I wanted to get it in today (per RFC) and
didn't know if I would have a chance later today.

This commit was SVN r17173.
Changes paffinity interface to use a cpu mask for available/preferred cpus
rather than the current coarse grained paffinity that lets the OS choose
which processor.
Macros for setting and clearing masks are provided.
Solaris and windows changes have not been made. Solaris subdirectory has some
suggested changes - however the relevant man pages for the Solaris 10 APIs
have some ambiguity regarding order in which one create and sets a processor
set. As we did not have access to a solaris 10 machine we could not test to
see the correct way to do the work under solaris.
This commit was SVN r14887.
- move files out of toplevel include/ and etc/, moving it into the
sub-projects
- rather than including config headers with <project>/include,
have them as <project>
- require all headers to be included with a project prefix, with
the exception of the config headers ({opal,orte,ompi}_config.h
mpi.h, and mpif.h)
This commit was SVN r8985.
- Simple components for getting and setting processor affinity of a
process; does *not* include scheduling decisions
- No one in the OMPI code base invokes the framework yet
- Added linux component for using sched_setaffinity()
- Added shell solaris component that will use processor_bind()
(currently .ompi_ignore'd)
This commit was SVN r6854.
