It never lived up to its purpose (and has caused amorphous indirect
errors such as https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/issues/2519), so
delete it.

This was done after discussions with core developers about any
potential ABI breakage for any of the libs the user directly
links against. Also compaitiblity tests were done using the
ibm test suite and building with v3.1.x and running with v4.0.x

This PR renames the common library for OFI libfabric from
libfabric to ofi. There are a number of reasons this
is good to do:
1) its shorter and replaces 9 characters with three for
function names for what may eventually be a fairly extensive interface
2) OFI is the term used for MTL and RML components that use
the OFI libfabric interface
3) A planned OSC component will also use the OFI term.
4) Other HPC libraries that can use OFI libfabric tend to use
the term "ofi" internally and also in their configure options
relevant to OFI libfabric (i.e. MPICH/CH4, Intel MPI, Sandia SHMEM)
There seem to be comments in places in the Open MPI source
code that indicate that this common library will be going away.
Far from it as we will want to be able to share things like
AV objects between OMPI and possibly OSHMEM components that
use the OFI libfabric interface.
This PR also adds a synonym to the --with-libfabric(-libdir)
configury options: --with-ofi and with-ofi-libdir.

Move .so version numbers to their appropriate project in the top-level
VERSION file. Also add the project name to all .so version number
names. Remove no-longer-used .so names.
Add an alps common lib to orte. Add a function
to determine whether or not a process is in a
PAGG container.
Note: we need a better naming convention for
common libs, since right now they use a "flat"
naming convention.
Update the VERSION file scheme:
* Remove "want_repo_rev".
* Add "tarball_version".
All values are now always included (major, minor, release, greek,
repo_rev). However, configure.ac now runs "opal_get_version.sh
... --tarball", which will return the value of tarball_version (if it
is non-empty) or the "full" version string (i.e.,
"major.minor.releasegreek").
Version numbering and "make dist" are quite complicated/subtle; I'm
not going to get this finished tonight. So revert VERSION to enable
other people to build.
More fixes coming soon...
The library filenames for the Fortran MPI APIs have changed over time,
so update the text that refers to these libraries to be a bit more
generic.

branch; it will likely be easiest just to copy over a new copy of
bullet 3)
This commit was SVN r30994.
The following common shared libraries did not have versioning:
* ompi/common/ofacm
* ompi/common/verbs
* ompi/common/ugni
Additionally, we still had shared library versions in VERSION for the
following libraries, which no longer exist:
* ompi/common/portals
* opal/common/hwloc
This commit was SVN r29421.
1. New mpifort wrapper compiler: you can utilize mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08 through this one wrapper compiler
1. mpif77 and mpif90 still exist, but are sym links to mpifort and may be removed in a future release
1. The mpi module has been re-implemented and is significantly "mo' bettah"
1. The mpi_f08 module offers many, many improvements over mpif.h and the mpi module
This stuff is coming from a VERY long-lived mercurial branch (3 years!); it'll almost certainly take a few SVN commits and a bunch of testing before I get it correctly committed to the SVN trunk.
== More details ==
Craig Rasmussen and I have been working with the MPI-3 Fortran WG and Fortran J3 committees for a long, long time to make a prototype MPI-3 Fortran bindings implementation. We think we're at a stable enough state to bring this stuff back to the trunk, with the goal of including it in OMPI v1.7.
Special thanks go out to everyone who has been incredibly patient and helpful to us in this journey:
* Rolf Rabenseifner/HLRS (mastermind/genius behind the entire MPI-3 Fortran effort)
* The Fortran J3 committee
* Tobias Burnus/gfortran
* Tony !Goetz/Absoft
* Terry !Donte/Oracle
* ...and probably others whom I'm forgetting :-(
There's still opportunities for optimization in the mpi_f08 implementation, but by and large, it is as far along as it can be until Fortran compilers start implementing the new F08 dimension(..) syntax.
Note that gfortran is currently unsupported for the mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module. gfortran users will a) fall back to the same mpi module implementation that is in OMPI v1.5.x, and b) not get the new mpi_f08 module. The gfortran maintainers are actively working hard to add the necessary features to support both the new mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module implementations. This will take some time.
As mentioned above, ompi/mpi/f77 and ompi/mpi/f90 no longer exist. All the fortran bindings implementations have been collated under ompi/mpi/fortran; each implementation has its own subdirectory:
{{{
ompi/mpi/fortran/
base/ - glue code
mpif-h/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f77
use-mpi-tkr/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f90
use-mpi-ignore-tkr/ - new mpi module implementation
use-mpi-f08/ - new mpi_f08 module implementation
}}}
There's also a prototype 6-function-MPI implementation under use-mpi-f08-desc that emulates the new F08 dimension(..) syntax that isn't fully available in Fortran compilers yet. We did that to prove it to ourselves that it could be done once the compilers fully support it. This directory/implementation will likely eventually replace the use-mpi-f08 version.
Other things that were done:
* ompi_info grew a few new output fields to describe what level of Fortran support is included
* Existing Fortran examples in examples/ were renamed; new mpi_f08 examples were added
* The old Fortran MPI libraries were renamed:
* libmpi_f77 -> libmpi_mpifh
* libmpi_f90 -> libmpi_usempi
* The configury for Fortran was consolidated and significantly slimmed down. Note that the F77 env variable is now IGNORED for configure; you should only use FC. Example:
{{{
shell$ ./configure CC=icc CXX=icpc FC=ifort ...
}}}
All of this work was done in a Mercurial branch off the SVN trunk, and hosted at Bitbucket. This branch has got to be one of OMPI's longest-running branches. Its first commit was Tue Apr 07 23:01:46 2009 -0400 -- it's over 3 years old! :-) We think we've pulled in all relevant changes from the OMPI trunk (e.g., Fortran implementations of the new MPI-3 MPROBE stuff for mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08, and the recent Fujitsu Fortran patches).
I anticipate some instability when we bring this stuff into the trunk, simply because it touches a LOT of code in the MPI layer in the OMPI code base. We'll try our best to make it as pain-free as possible, but please bear with us when it is committed.
This commit was SVN r26283.
