id based on the last half of the mapper MAC. This allow us to figure out how
to connect peers. This allow the MX BTL to be used in a cluster of cluster
configuration where each cluster have MX internally as well as on a multi
rail MX system.

This is required to tighten up the BTL semantics. Ordering is not guaranteed,
but, if the BTL returns a order tag in a descriptor (other than
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER) then we may request another descriptor that will obey
ordering w.r.t. to the other descriptor.
This will allow sane behavior for RDMA networks, where local completion of an
RDMA operation on the active side does not imply remote completion on the
passive side. If we send a FIN message after local completion and the FIN is
not ordered w.r.t. the RDMA operation then badness may occur as the passive
side may now try to deregister the memory and the RDMA operation may still be
pending on the passive side.
Note that this has no impact on networks that don't suffer from this
limitation as the ORDER tag can simply always be specified as
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER.

This merge adds Checkpoint/Restart support to Open MPI. The initial
frameworks and components support a LAM/MPI-like implementation.
This commit follows the risk assessment presented to the Open MPI core
development group on Feb. 22, 2007.
This commit closes trac:158
More details to follow.

protocol over the MX BTL. Now, we have only one matching, the one in Open
MPI.
The problem is that when the unexpected handler is triggered, not all the
message is on the host memory. In the best case we get one MX fragment (internal
MX fragment), in the worst we get NULL. The only way to fit this with the
design of the PML is to force the eager protocol at the MX internal fragment
size, and to limit the send/receive protocol at the same size. Tests show
the outcome is not far from optimal (if the pipeline depth is increased
a little bit).
Set MX_PIPELINE_LOG in order to allow MX to use internal fragments of 4K.

performance on a 2G Myrinet card, as it look like pipelining the messages
by 1M is faster than a simple send/receive. However, when using a 10G card
the send/receive will limit the maximum bandwidth to 2.5Gbs. The reason is
the scarce bus resources that have to be shared between the Myrinet hardware
and the memcpy operation. The PUT protocol remove the memcpy, we now have a
true zero-copy mechanism. But, there is no pipelining yet as it look like the
RDMA pipeline somehow disappeared from the OB1 PML ...

In order to provide backwards compatability the framework versions are bumped
and the handler registeration function is at the end of the btl struct.
Testing done on sm, openib, and gm..

- 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)

increase the previous connection code was broken. It can take as much as 60 seconds to connect
64 processes. Now we do not create the connections when we add the procs but only when we send
them the first message. Now it take only 1.6 seconds to setup a 64 procs MPI job over MX (doing a 2 steps barrier in order to insure that we create all the connections).

is labeled as internal so the users will not see it but it is not read-only so we can still
play with it (that's for our internal tests). This is supposed to dissapear later after the
next (or next next) release of the MX library, but we need it now as a quick fix before the
release.
