We've been fighting the battle of trying to create a regex generator and
parser that can handle arbitrary hostname schemes - without long-term
success. The worst of it is that there is no way of checking to see if
the computed regex is correct short of parsing it and doing a
character-by-character comparison with the original string. Ugh...there
has to be a better solution.
One option is to investigate using 3rd-party regex libraries as
those are coming from communities whose sole focus is resolving that
problem. However, someone would need to spend the time to investigate
it, and we'd have to find a license-friendly implementation.
Another option is to quit beating our heads against the wall and just
compress the information. It won't be as much of a reduction, but we
also won't keep hitting scenarios where things break. In this case, it
seems that "perfection" is definitely the enemy of "good enough".
This PR implements the compression option while retaining the
possibility of people adding regex-generating components. The
compression code used in ORTE is consolidated into the opal/compress
framework. That framework currently held bzip and gzip components for
use in compressing checkpoint files - since we no longer support C/R, I
have .opal_ignore'd those components.
However, I have left the original framework APIs alone in case someone
ever decides to redo C/R. The APIs of interest here are added to the
framework - specifically, the "compress_block" and "decompress_block"
functions. I then moved the ORTE zlib compression code into a new
component in this framework.
Unfortunately, the framework currently is a single-select one - i.e.,
only one active component at a time. Since I .opal_ignore'd the other
two and made the priority of zlib high, this isn't a problem. However,
if someone wants to re-enable bzip/gzip or add another component, they
might need to transition opal/compress to a multi-select framework.
Included changes:
* Consolidate the compression code into the opal/compress framework
* Move the ORTE zlib compression code into a new opal/compress/zlib
component
* Ignore the bzip and gzip components in opal/compress framework
* Add a "compress_base_limit" MCA param to set the threshold above which
we compress data - defaults to 4096 bytes
* Delete stale brucks and rcd components from orte/grpcomm framework
* Delete the orte/regx framework
* Update the launch system to use opal/compress instead of string regex
* Provide a default module if no zlib is available
* Fix some misc multi-node issues
* Properly generate the nidmap in response to a "connection warmup"
message so the remote daemon knows the children it needs to launch.
* Remove stale references to orte_node_regex
* opal_byte_object_t's are not OPAL objects - properly release allocated
memory.
* Set the topology
* Currently only handling homogeneous case
* Update the compress framework files to conform
* Consolidate open/close into one "frame" file. Ensure we open/close the
framework

passed to make it all flow thru the opal/pmix "put/get" operations. Update the PMIx code to latest master to pickup some required behaviors.
Remove the no-longer-required get_contact_info and set_contact_info from the RML layer.
Add an MCA param to allow the ofi/rml component to route messages if desired. This is mainly for experimentation at this point as we aren't sure if routing wi
ll be beneficial at large scales. Leave it "off" by default.

This now passes the loop test, and so we believe it resolves the random hangs in finalize.
Changes in PMIx master that are included here:
* Fixed a bug in the PMIx_Get logic
* Fixed self-notification procedure
* Made pmix_output functions thread safe
* Fixed a number of thread safety issues
* Updated configury to use 'uname -n' when hostname is unavailable
Work on cleaning up the event handler thread safety problem
Rarely used functions, but protect them anyway
Fix the last part of the intercomm problem
Ensure we don't cover any PMIx calls with the framework-level lock.
Protect against NULL argv comm_spawn

onto the backend daemons. By default, let mpirun only pack the app_context
info and send that to the backend daemons where the mapping will
be done. This significantly reduces the computational time on mpirun as it isn't
running up/down the topology tree computing thousands of binding
locations, and it reduces the launch message to a very small number of
bytes.
When running -novm, fall back to the old way of doing things
where mpirun computes the entire map and binding, and then sends
the full info to the backend daemon.
Add a new cmd line option/mca param --fwd-mpirun-port that allows
mpirun to dynamically select a port, but then passes that back to
all the other daemons so they will use that port as a static port
for their own wireup. In this mode, we no longer "phone home" directly
to mpirun, but instead use the static port to wireup at daemon
start. We then use the routing tree to rollup the initial
launch report, and limit the number of open sockets on mpirun's node.
Update ras simulator to track the new nidmap code
Cleanup some bugs in the nidmap regex code, and enhance the error message for not enough slots to include the host on which the problem is found.
Update gadget platform file
Initialize the range count when starting a new range
Fix the no-np case in managed allocation
Ensure DVM node usage gets cleaned up after each job
Update scaling.pl script to use --fwd-mpirun-port. Pre-connect the daemon to its parent during launch while we are otherwise waiting for the daemon's children to send their "phone home" rollup messages

This commit fixes an error in teardown where the event bases are town
down before the peer structures are released. This causes us to call
event_del on an invalid event base. At best this makes valgrind
complain and at worst this causes aborts or segvs.

there is no need for a configure option as well - so remove the

Still not completely done as we need a better way of tracking the routed module being used down in the OOB - e.g., when a peer drops connection, we want to remove that route from all conduits that (a) use the OOB and (b) are routed, but we don't want to remove it from an OFI conduit.
Multiple conduits can exist at the same time, and can even point to the same base transport. Each conduit can have its own characteristics (e.g., flow control) based on the info keys provided to the "open_conduit" call. For ease during the transition period, the "legacy" RML interfaces remain as wrappers over the new conduit-based APIs using a default conduit opened during orte_init - this default conduit is tied to the OOB framework so that current behaviors are preserved. Once the transition has been completed, a one-time cleanup will be done to update all RML calls to the new APIs and the "legacy" interfaces will be deleted.
While we are at it: Remove oob/usock component to eliminate the TMPDIR length problem - get all working, including oob_stress
* qos framework is moving to the scon layer and is no longer required in ORTE
* remove the rml/ftrm component as we now have multiple active components, and so the wrapper needs to be rethought
* no need for separating the "base" from "API" module definition. The two are identical
* move the "stub" functions into their own file for cleanliness
* general cleanup to meet coding standards
* cleanup some logic in the stubs
The timeout is frequency at which to send keepalive pings; the retry
interval is how often to send successive pings once a keepalive has
not replied.
