inclusion in one of the now deleted headers...
In total 817 files are touched.
In ompi/mpi/c/ header files are moved up into the actual c-file,
where necessary (these are the only additional #include),
otherwise it is only deletions of #include (apart from the above

This commit was SVN r20557.
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.
This commit was SVN r20098.
1. remove direct routed module (hooray!)
2. add radix tree routed module (binomial remains default)
3. remove duplicate data storage - orteds were storing nidmap and pidmap data in odls, everyone else in ess
4. add ess APIs to update nidmap, add new pidmap - used only by orteds for MPI-2 support
5. modify code to eliminate multiple calls to orte_routed.update_route that recreated info already in ess pidmap. Add ess API to lookup that info instead. Modify routed modules to utilize that capability
6. setup new ability to shutdown orteds without sending back an "ack" message to mpirun - not utilized yet, will require some changes to plm terminate_orteds functions in managed environments (coming soon)
Initial tests indicating that fully routing comm via defined routing trees may not actually have a significant cost for operations like IB QP setup. More tests required to confirm.
This will require an autogen...
This commit was SVN r19866.
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.
This commit was SVN r19767.
Refers to ticket #1548. Although this appears to fix the problem, the ticket will be held open pending further test prior to transition to the 1.3 branch.
This commit was SVN r19674.
If a message cannot be routed because the addressee isn't yet known, then the message is held on a queue in the RML for a period of time (currently set to 500 millisec). At the end of that time, we pop the message from the list and attempt to send it again. This action requires that we convert the header back to
network-byte-order before calling the OOB.
If the message still cannot be routed, we put the message back on the list and reset the timer. However, since we are going to convert the header when it com
es off of the list, we have to ntoh it before putting it back on the list so it all comes out right. This step was missing.
Thus, the problem only showed up relatively rarely because a message would have to be pushed onto the queue at least twice for the problem to surface.
This should fix a specific ticket (1389), but we will wait to see the results of MTT runs to verify. Note that we really don't know why a message is rattling around in the RML for so long, especially since this all seems to be happening during finalize, so this could cause mpirun to hang. Or it could simply trash the message and exit cleanly. Shall be interesting to see!

The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 1392 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1392
1. repair of the linear and direct routed modules
2. repair of the ompi/pubsub/orte module to correctly init routes to the ompi-server, and correctly handle failure to correctly parse the provided ompi-server URI
3. modification of orterun to accept both "file" and "FILE" for designating where the ompi-server URI is to be found - purely a convenience feature
4. resolution of a message ordering problem during the connect/accept handshake that allowed the "send-first" proc to attempt to send to the "recv-first" proc before the HNP had actually updated its routes.
Let this be a further reminder to all - message ordering is NOT guaranteed in the OOB
5. Repair the ompi/dpm/orte module to correctly init routes during connect/accept.
Reminder to all: messages sent to procs in another job family (i.e., started by a different mpirun) are ALWAYS routed through the respective HNPs. As per the comments in orte/routed, this is REQUIRED to maintain connect/accept (where only the root proc on each side is capable of init'ing the routes), allow communication between mpirun's using different routing modules, and to minimize connections on tools such as ompi-server. It is all taken care of "under the covers" by the OOB to ensure that a route back to the sender is maintained, even when the different mpirun's are using different routed modules.
6. corrections in the orte/odls to ensure proper identification of daemons participating in a dynamic launch
7. corrections in build/nidmap to support update of an existing nidmap during dynamic launch
8. corrected implementation of the update_arch function in the ESS, along with consolidation of a number of ESS operations into base functions for easier maintenance. The ability to support info from multiple jobs was added, although we don't currently do so - this will come later to support further fault recovery strategies
9. minor updates to several functions to remove unnecessary and/or no longer used variables and envar's, add some debugging output, etc.
10. addition of a new macro ORTE_PROC_IS_DAEMON that resolves to true if the provided proc is a daemon
There is still more cleanup to be done for efficiency, but this at least works.
Tested on single-node Mac, multi-node SLURM via odin. Tests included connect/accept, publish/lookup/unpublish, comm_spawn, comm_spawn_multiple, and singleton comm_spawn.
Fixes ticket #1256
This commit was SVN r18804.
Some minor changes to help facilitate debugger support so that both mpirun and yod can operate with it. Still to be completed.
This commit was SVN r18664.
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.
This commit was SVN r18619.
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 r18434.
All spawned procs must decode the port of the spawning process so they can communicate in direct routed mode.
This fixes comm_spawn for all routing modes.
This commit was SVN r18395.
Make it all work with comm_spawn in the case of all procs on previously occupied nodes, some new procs on new nodes, and mixtures of the two.
Note: comm_spawn now works with both binomial and linear routed modules. There remains a problem of spawned procs not properly getting updated contact info for the parent proc when run in the direct routed mode...but that's for another day.
This commit was SVN r18385.
Update the rsh tree spawn capability so we spawn the next wave of daemons before launching our own local procs.

Add the daemon map capability to the ODLS to create and save a map of daemon vpid vs nodename from the launch message.
Cleanup a few places in the base plm launch support where we didn't adequately protect rml recv's from potentially executing sends.
This commit was SVN r18143.
The bug was a race condition in the barrier operation that caused the barrier in MPI_Finalize to fail on very short programs.
Scalaiblity was improved by using the daemons to aggregate modex and barrier messages before sending them to the rank=0 proc. Improvement is proportional to ppn, of course, but there really wasn't a scaling problem at low ppn anyway. This modification also paves the way for better allgather operations since now all the data for each node is sitting at the daemon level, and the daemons are now aware that a collective operation on the OOB is underway (so they -can- participate in a collective of their own to support it).
Also added better diagnostics to map out the timing associated with MPI_Init - turned on by -mca orte_timing 1.
This commit was SVN r17988.
Reogranize the grpcomm code a little to provide support for soon-to-come new grpcomm components. The revised organization puts what will be common code elements in the base to avoid duplication, while allowing components that don't need those functions to ignore them.
This commit was SVN r17941.
Basically, the method employed here is to have a recv create a zero-time timer event that causes the event library to execute a function that processes the message once the recv returns. Thus, any action taken as a result of processing the message occur outside of a recv.
Created two new macros to assist:
ORTE_MESSAGE_EVENT: creates the zero-time event, passing info in a new orte_message_event_t object
ORTE_PROGRESSED_WAIT: while waiting for specified conditions, just calls progress so messages can be recv'd.
Also fixed the failed_launch function as we no longer block in the orted callback function. Updated the error messages to reflect revision. No change in API to this function, but PLM "owners" may want to check their internal error messages to avoid duplication and excessive output.
This has been tested on Mac, TM, and SLURM.
This commit was SVN r17647.
about linkers, have all OPAL, ORTE, and OMPI components '''not'' link

This commit was SVN r16968.
Note that this means ALL procs in the parent job are updated, even though they may not be participating in the comm_spawn. This doesn't really hurt anything - just unnecessary.
Comm_spawn still has a problem when a child process shares a node with a parent, so this doesn't fix everything. It only fixes the bug of ensuring all procs know how to talk to each other.
This commit was SVN r16460.
The commit has been tested for C/R and Cray operations, and on Odin (SLURM, rsh) and RoadRunner (TM). I tried to update all environments, but obviously could not test them. I know that Windows needs some work, and have highlighted what is know to be needed in the odls process component.
This represents a lot of work by Brian, Tim P, Josh, and myself, with much advice from Jeff and others. For posterity, I have appended a copy of the email describing the work that was done:
As we have repeatedly noted, the modex operation in MPI_Init is the single greatest consumer of time during startup. To-date, we have executed that operation as an ORTE stage gate that held the process until a startup message containing all required modex (and OOB contact info - see #3 below) info could be sent to it. Each process would send its data to the HNP's registry, which assembled and sent the message when all processes had reported in.
In addition, ORTE had taken responsibility for monitoring process status as it progressed through a series of "stage gates". The process reported its status at each gate, and ORTE would then send a "release" message once all procs had reported in.
The incoming changes revamp these procedures in three ways:
1. eliminating the ORTE stage gate system and cleanly delineating responsibility between the OMPI and ORTE layers for MPI init/finalize. The modex stage gate (STG1) has been replaced by a collective operation in the modex itself that performs an allgather on the required modex info. The allgather is implemented using the orte_grpcomm framework since the BTL's are not active at that point. At the moment, the grpcomm framework only has a "basic" component analogous to OMPI's "basic" coll framework - I would recommend that the MPI team create additional, more advanced components to improve performance of this step.
The other stage gates have been replaced by orte_grpcomm barrier functions. We tried to use MPI barriers instead (since the BTL's are active at that point), but - as we discussed on the telecon - these are not currently true barriers so the job would hang when we fell through while messages were still in process. Note that the grpcomm barrier doesn't actually resolve that problem, but Brian has pointed out that we are unlikely to ever see it violated. Again, you might want to spend a little time on an advanced barrier algorithm as the one in "basic" is very simplistic.
Summarizing this change: ORTE no longer tracks process state nor has direct responsibility for synchronizing jobs. This is now done via collective operations within the MPI layer, albeit using ORTE collective communication services. I -strongly- urge the MPI team to implement advanced collective algorithms to improve the performance of this critical procedure.
2. reducing the volume of data exchanged during modex. Data in the modex consisted of the process name, the name of the node where that process is located (expressed as a string), plus a string representation of all contact info. The nodename was required in order for the modex to determine if the process was local or not - in addition, some people like to have it to print pretty error messages when a connection failed.
The size of this data has been reduced in three ways:
(a) reducing the size of the process name itself. The process name consisted of two 32-bit fields for the jobid and vpid. This is far larger than any current system, or system likely to exist in the near future, can support. Accordingly, the default size of these fields has been reduced to 16-bits, which means you can have 32k procs in each of 32k jobs. Since the daemons must have a vpid, and we require one daemon/node, this also restricts the default configuration to 32k nodes.
To support any future "mega-clusters", a configuration option --enable-jumbo-apps has been added. This option increases the jobid and vpid field sizes to 32-bits. Someday, if necessary, someone can add yet another option to increase them to 64-bits, I suppose.
(b) replacing the string nodename with an integer nodeid. Since we have one daemon/node, the nodeid corresponds to the local daemon's vpid. This replaces an often lengthy string with only 2 (or at most 4) bytes, a substantial reduction.
(c) when the mca param requesting that nodenames be sent to support pretty error messages, a second mca param is now used to request FQDN - otherwise, the domain name is stripped (by default) from the message to save space. If someone wants to combine those into a single param somehow (perhaps with an argument?), they are welcome to do so - I didn't want to alter what people are already using.
While these may seem like small savings, they actually amount to a significant impact when aggregated across the entire modex operation. Since every proc must receive the modex data regardless of the collective used to send it, just reducing the size of the process name removes nearly 400MBytes of communication from a 32k proc job (admittedly, much of this comm may occur in parallel). So it does add up pretty quickly.
3. routing RML messages to reduce connections. The default messaging system remains point-to-point - i.e., each proc opens a socket to every proc it communicates with and sends its messages directly. A new option uses the orteds as routers - i.e., each proc only opens a single socket to its local orted. All messages are sent from the proc to the orted, which forwards the message to the orted on the node where the intended recipient proc is located - that orted then forwards the message to its local proc (the recipient). This greatly reduces the connection storm we have encountered during startup.
It also has the benefit of removing the sharing of every proc's OOB contact with every other proc. The orted routing tables are populated during launch since every orted gets a map of where every proc is being placed. Each proc, therefore, only needs to know the contact info for its local daemon, which is passed in via the environment when the proc is fork/exec'd by the daemon. This alone removes ~50 bytes/process of communication that was in the current STG1 startup message - so for our 32k proc job, this saves us roughly 32k*50 = 1.6MBytes sent to 32k procs = 51GBytes of messaging.
Note that you can use the new routing method by specifying -mca routed tree - if you so desire. This mode will become the default at some point in the future.
There are a few minor additional changes in the commit that I'll just note in passing:
* propagation of command line mca params to the orteds - fixes ticket #1073. See note there for details.
* requiring of "finalize" prior to "exit" for MPI procs - fixes ticket #1144. See note there for details.
* cleanup of some stale header files

transferring Many files at roughly the same time.
I tested this for many different filem operations and everything was working
fine. Let me know if you have any problems with this functionality.
Some Notes:
- opal-checkpoint now has a 'quiet' flag to keep it from being too verbose.
- FileM RSH component is fully non-blocking.
- FileM RSH component has incomming connection throttling since by default
ssh only allows 10 concurrent scp connections to any single host. This
default can be adjusted via an MCA parameter.
{{{-mca filem_rsh_max_incomming 10}}}
- There is an MCA parameter for max outgoing connections, but it is currently
not implemented. If someone needs it then it should not be hard to implement.
{{{-mca filem_rsh_max_outgoing 10}}}
- Changed the FileM request structure so that it is a bit more explicit and
flexible.
- Moved the 'preload-binary' and 'preload-files' functionality into odls/base
allowing for code reuse in the 'process' and 'default' ODLS components.
- Fixed a bug in the process name resolution which broke the 'preload-*'
functionality due to GPR table structure changes.
- The FileM RSH component might be able to see even more speedup from using a
thread pool to operate on the work_pool structures, but that is for future
work.
- Added a 'opal-show-help' file to ODLS Base

r15390 - Changed the paradigm in which the runtime worked by enabling the mpirun
process to become an orted and spawn processes. This broke the C/R for this
special case as it required that the orted start the process, and that
the hierarchy remains.
The fix was to allow the global coordinator to be a local coordinator as well
for this case.
r15528 - Changed the selection logic for the RML. This caused the application to
segv if the 'ftrm' wrapper component was selected as it tried to modify a NULL
pointer.
The fix was to move the 'module swap' code into the init() function, and swap
when passed a NULL pointer. It sounds bad, but actually cleans up the code a bit
more.
Still have to fix the 'routed' framework.

Short description: major changes include -
1. singletons now fork/exec a local daemon to manage their operations.
2. the orte daemon code now resides in libopen-rte
3. daemons no longer use the orte triggering system during startup. Instead, they directly call back to their parent pls component to report ready to operate. A base function to count the callbacks has been provided.
I have modified all the pls components except xcpu and poe (don't understand either well enough to do it). Full functionality has been verified for rsh, SLURM, and TM systems. Compile has been verified for xgrid and gridengine.

Ticket 1010 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1010
1. generalize orte_rml.xcast to become a general broadcast-like messaging system. Messages can now be sent to any tag on the daemons or processes. Note that any message sent via xcast will be delivered to ALL processes in the specified job - you don't get to pick and choose. At a later date, we will introduce an augmented capability that will use the daemons as relays, but will allow you to send to a specified array of process names.
2. extended orte_rml.xcast so it supports more scalable message routing methodologies. At the moment, we support three: (a) direct, which sends the message directly to all recipients; (b) linear, which sends the message to the local daemon on each node, which then relays it to its own local procs; and (b) binomial, which sends the message via a binomial algo across all the daemons, each of which then relays to its own local procs. The crossover points between the algos are adjustable via MCA param, or you can simply demand that a specific algo be used.
3. orteds no longer exhibit two types of behavior: bootproxy or VM. Orteds now always behave like they are part of a virtual machine - they simply launch a job if mpirun tells them to do so. This is another step towards creating an "orteboot" functionality, but also provided a clean system for supporting message relaying.
Note one major impact of this commit: multiple daemons on a node cannot be supported any longer! Only a single daemon/node is now allowed.
This commit is known to break support for the following environments: POE, Xgrid, Xcpu, Windows. It has been tested on rsh, SLURM, and Bproc. Modifications for TM support have been made but could not be verified due to machine problems at LANL. Modifications for SGE have been made but could not be verified. The developers for the non-verified environments will be separately notified along with suggestions on how to fix the problems.
This commit was SVN r15007.
The primary change that underlies all this is in the OOB. Specifically, the problem in the code until now has been that the OOB attempts to resolve an address when we call the "send" to an unknown recipient. The OOB would then wait forever if that recipient never actually started (and hence, never reported back its OOB contact info). In the case of an orted that failed to start, we would correctly detect that the orted hadn't started, but then we would attempt to order all orteds (including the one that failed to start) to die. This would cause the OOB to "hang" the system.
Unfortunately, revising how the OOB resolves addresses introduced a number of additional problems. Specifically, and most troublesome, was the fact that comm_spawn involved the immediate transmission of the rendezvous point from parent-to-child after the child was spawned. The current code used the OOB address resolution as a "barrier" - basically, the parent would attempt to send the info to the child, and then "hold" there until the child's contact info had arrived (meaning the child had started) and the send could be completed.
Note that this also caused comm_spawn to "hang" the entire system if the child never started... The app-failed-to-start helped improve that behavior - this code provides additional relief.
With this change, the OOB will return an ADDRESSEE_UNKNOWN error if you attempt to send to a recipient whose contact info isn't already in the OOB's hash tables. To resolve comm_spawn issues, we also now force the cross-sharing of connection info between parent and child jobs during spawn.
Finally, to aid in setting triggers to the right values, we introduce the "arith" API for the GPR. This function allows you to atomically change the value in a registry location (either divide, multiply, add, or subtract) by the provided operand. It is equivalent to first fetching the value using a "get", then modifying it, and then putting the result back into the registry via a "put".

assumptions in the FT restart code for the ORTE layer.
This fixes those problems by having the RML completely shutdown and
restart the OOB framework (instead of just the module as before).
This makes it much easier to manage, and maintainable as the OOB
changes in the future.
The SDS now does communication as part of its startup procedure, so
we need to make sure we restart the RML before the SDS so that it can
communicate properly.
OOB base [close|open] used a static bool to determine if they have
been called previously or not. I needed to expose this boolean so
that I can close() then open() the oob base in the restart procedure.
The functionality has not changed, we just now have the ability to
open/close the framework as many times as we need to as long as we
always call them in that order. (So calling open twice in a row is not allowed
as before, it is only allowed if you open(), close(), then open() again).
Things seem to be working now.
This commit was SVN r14515.
There is a binomial algorithm in the code (i.e., the HNP would send to a subset of the orteds, which then relay it on according to the typical log-2 algo), but that has a bug in it so the code won't let you select it even if you tried (and the mca param doesn't show, so you'd *really* have to try).
This also involved a slight change to the oob.xcast API, so propagated that as required.
Note: this has *only* been tested on rsh, SLURM, and Bproc environments (now that it has been transferred to the OMPI trunk, I'll need to re-test it [only done rsh so far]). It should work fine on any environment that uses the ORTE daemons - anywhere else, you are on your own... :-)
Also, correct a mistake where the orte_debug_flag was declared an int, but the mca param was set as a bool. Move the storage for that flag to the orte/runtime/params.c and orte/runtime/params.h files appropriately.
This commit was SVN r14475.
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).

Accordingly, there are new APIs to the name service to support the ability to get a job's parent, root, immediate children, and all its descendants. In addition, the terminate_job, terminate_orted, and signal_job APIs for the PLS have been modified to accept attributes that define the extent of their actions. For example, doing a "terminate_job" with an attribute of ORTE_NS_INCLUDE_DESCENDANTS will terminate the given jobid AND all jobs that descended from it.
I have tested this capability on a MacBook under rsh, Odin under SLURM, and LANL's Flash (bproc). It worked successfully on non-MPI jobs (both simple and including a spawn), and MPI jobs (again, both simple and with a spawn).

Fix the persistent daemon problem where it was exiting when a job completed. Problem was that the persistent daemon would order the job daemons to exit. They would then send an 'ack' back to the persistent daemon - but the ack consisted of an echo of the "exit" command, which was recv'd by the wrong listener who treated it as a properly sent cmd....and exited.

Clean up the remainder of the size_t references in the runtime itself. Convert to orte_std_cntr_t wherever it makes sense (only avoid those places where the actual memory size is referenced).
Remove the obsolete oob barrier function (we actually obsoleted it a long time ago - just never bothered to clean it up).
I have done my best to go through all the components and catch everything, even if I couldn't test compile them since I wasn't on that type of system. Still, I cannot guarantee that problems won't show up when you test this on specific systems. Usually, these will just show as "warning: comparison between signed and unsigned" notes which are easily fixed (just change a size_t to orte_std_cntr_t).
In some places, people didn't use size_t, but instead used some other variant (e.g., I found several places with uint32_t). I tried to catch all of them, but...
Once we get all the instances caught and fixed, this should once and for all resolve many of the heterogeneity problems.

originally suggested by Ralf Wildenhues, to try to speed autogen, configure,
and make (and possibly even make install). Use automake's include directive
to drastically reduce the number of Makefile files (although the number of
Makefile.am files is the same - most are just included in a top-level
Makefile.am). Also use an Automake SUBDIRs feature to eliminate the
dynamic-mca tree, which was no longer really needed. This makes adding
a framework easier (since you don't have to remember the dynamic-mca
tree) and makes building faster (as make doesn't have to recurse through
the dynamic-mca tree)

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.

Here's the huge registry check-in you've all been waiting for with baited breath.

In addition, the commit contains the following:
1. set the ignore properties on ompi/debuggers and orte/mca/pls/poe
2. Added simplified subscribe and put functions to the registry's API. I have also converted all of the ompi functions that registered subscriptions to the new API, and caught their associated put's as well.
In a follow-on commit, I'll be adding support for George's hetero arch registry subscription (wanted to get this one in first).

- After long discussions and ruminations on how we run components in
LAM/MPI, made the decision that, by default, all components included
in Open MPI will use the version number of their parent project
(i.e., OMPI or ORTE). They are certaint free to use a different
number, but this simplification makes the common cases easy:
- components are only released when the parent project is released
- it is easy (trivial?) to distinguish which version component goes
with with version of the parent project
- removed all autogen/configure code for templating the version .h
file in components
- made all ORTE components use ORTE_*_VERSION for version numbers
- made all OMPI components use OMPI_*_VERSION for version numbers
- removed all VERSION files from components
- configure now displays OPAL, ORTE, and OMPI version numbers
- ditto for ompi_info
- right now, faking it -- OPAL and ORTE and OMPI will always have the
same version number (i.e., they all come from the same top-level
VERSION file). But this paves the way for the Great Configure
Reorganization, where, among other things, each project will have
its own version number.
So all in all, we went from a boatload of version numbers to
[effectively] three. That's pretty good. :-)
