12cd07c9a9 Start reducing our dependency on the event library by removing at least one instance where we use it to redirect the program counter. Rolf reported occasional hangs of mpirun in very specific circumstances after all daemons were done. A review of MTT results indicates this may have been happening more generally in a small fraction of cases.
The problem was tracked to use of the grpcomm.onesided_barrier to control daemon/mpirun termination. This relied on messaging -and- required that the program counter jump from the errmgr back to grpcomm. On rare occasions, this jump did not occur, causing mpirun to hang.

This patch looks more invasive than it is - most of the affected files simply had one or two lines removed. The essence of the change is:

* pulled the job_complete and quit routines out of orterun and orted_main and put them in a common place

* modified the errmgr to directly call the new routines when termination is detected

* removed the grpcomm.onesided_barrier and its associated RML tag

* add a new "num_routes" API to the routed framework that reports back the number of dependent routes. When route_lost is called, the daemon's list of "children" is checked and adjusted if that route went to a "leaf" in the routing tree

* use connection termination between daemons to track rollup of the daemon tree. Daemons and HNP now terminate once num_routes returns zero

Also picked up in this commit is the addition of a new bool flag to the app_context struct, and increasing the job_control field from 8 to 16 bits. Both trivial.

afbe3e99c6 * Wrap all the direct error-code checks of the form (OMPI_ERR_* == ret) with
(OMPI_ERR_* = OPAL_SOS_GET_ERR_CODE(ret)), since the return value could be a
 SOS-encoded error. The OPAL_SOS_GET_ERR_CODE() takes in a SOS error and returns
 back the native error code.

* Since OPAL_SUCCESS is preserved by SOS, also change all calls of the form
  (OPAL_ERROR == ret) to (OPAL_SUCCESS != ret). We thus avoid having to
  decode 'ret' to get the native error code.

4bd25f587c Begin handling the case of lost connections by having the OOB report it to the errmgr instead of the routed framework. Add an "app" component to t
he errmgr framework so that it can decide how to respond - which for now at least is just to check for lifeline and abort if so.

Add a new error constant to indicate that the error is "unrecoverable" so the oob can know it needs to abort.

55889934d8 After hours spent chasing the stupid "abort" file, it became clear that we were always going to be plagued by that idiot contraption when trying to be good citizens and properly cleanup. So get rid of it by instead doing a messaging handshake with the local daemon.
Note that this isn't a problem since MPI_Abort and orte_abort are only called under controlled circumstances - i.e., we are doing an orderly abort and not segfaulting. If we can't get the message out for some reason, then too bad - we'll still see an abnormal process termination and act accordingly.

b9893aacc5 Add a sensor framework to ORTE that monitors applications and notifies the errmgr when they exceed specified boundaries. Two modules are included here:
1. file activity - can monitor file size, access and modification times. If these fail to change over a specified number of sampling iterations (rate is an mca param), then the errmgr is notified.

2. memory usage - checks amount of memory used by a process. Limit and sampling rate can be set.

This support must be enabled by configuring --enable-sensors.

ompi_info and orte-info have been updated to include the new framework.

Also includes some initial steps toward restoring the recovery capability. Most notably, the ODLS API has been extended to include a "restart_proc" entry for restarting a local process, and organizes the various ERRMGR framework globals into a single struct as we do in the other ORTE frameworks. Fix an oversight in the ERRMGR framework where a pointer array was constructed, but not initialized.

Implementation continues.

efbb5c9b7c Revamp the errmgr framework to provide a greater range of optional behaviors, including different behaviors for daemons, and remove several looping messages across the code base:
* add hnp and orted modules to the errmgr framework. The HNP module contains much of the code that was in the errmgr base since that code could only be executed by the HNP anyway.

* update the odls to report process states directly into the active errmgr module, thus removing the need to send messages looped back into the odls cmd processor. Let the active errmgr module decide what to do at various states.

* remove the code to track application state progress from the plm_base_launch_support.c code. Update the plm modules to call the errmgr directly when a launch fails.

* update the plm_base_receive.c code to call the errmgr with state updates from remote daemons

* update the routed modules to reflect that process state is updated in the errmgr

* ensure that the orted's open the errmgr and select their appropriate module

* add new pretty-print utilities to print process and job state. Move the pretty-print of time info to a globally-accessible place

* define a global orte_comm function to send messages from orted's to the HNP so that others can overlay the standard RML methods, if desired.

* update the orterun help output to reflect that the "term w/o sync" error message can result from three, not two, scenarios

09763ec711 Since we modified ORTE to declare that any process that terminates after calling "init" while at least one other process has not yet called "init" is an error, we have to ensure that non-MPI ORTE apps (i.e., apps that call orte_init but not mpi_init) include a barrier in orte_init. Otherwise, fast ORTE apps almost always wind up triggering the "abnormal termination" condition.
The barrier is protected with a test to ensure that MPI apps don't execute it and wind up doing two barriers during their init.

a0d5c80ce0 Add a new framework for discovering local resource information such as cpu type/model, #cpus, available physical memory, etc. Two initial components (darwin and linux) are provided. This is needed to support bootstrap operations where daemons are started at node boot, and applications where initial knowledge of cpu identification is needed to guide framework component selection.
Add orte configuration option to control the use of the framework in the system. Although the code will build, it will not be active unless configured with --enable-bootstrap.

If bootstrap is enabled and the new opal_sysinfo framework can successfully determine the cpu model, pass that info to the application as an MCA param to support some work at Sun.

Also, have daemons report back the resources they find to guide process mapping in bootstrap operations (i.e., where the daemon starts at node boot as opposed to being launched at application start).

Adjust some platform files to enable these capabilities.

5406fdfb80 Add support for sending SIGSTOP the MPI job after the checkpoint is taken (uses a BLCR feature for the option).
This commit looks larger than it really is since it includes a fair amount of code cleanup.

The SIGSTOP/SIGCONT+checkpointing work uses some of the functionality in r20391. Basic use case below (note that the checkpoint generated is useable as usual if the stopped application is terminated).
{{{
shell 1) mpirun -np 2 -am ft-enable-cr my-app
... running ...

shell 2) ompi-checkpoint --stop -v MPIRUN_PID

shell 2) killall -CONT mpirun

... Application Continues execution in shell 1 ...
}}}

Other items in this commit are mostly cleanup that has been sitting off-trunk for too long:
 * Add a new {{{opal_crs_base_ckpt_options_t}}} type that encapsulates the various options that could be passed to the CRS. Currently only TERM and STOP, but this makes adding others ''much'' easier.
 * Eliminate ORTE_SNAPC_CKPT_STATE_PENDING_TERM, since it served a redundant purpose with the new options type.
 * Lay some basic ground work for some future features.

addaf7aaf8 Repair the tree spawn. The problem seems to come from the fact
that now the HNP send the messages using the routed component. In the case
of tree spawn, when a intermediary node spawn a child it doesn't know how
to forward a message to it, so when the node-map message is coming from
the HNP (as there is nothing yet in the contact/routing table) the message
is sent back the way it came. As a result the node-map message keeps jumping
between the HNP and the first level orteds.

The solution is to add a new option to the children orte_parent_uri, which
is only set when the orted is _not_ directly spawned by the HNP. When this
option is present on the argument list, the orted will add the parent to
its routing, and force the parent to update his routes (by sending the URI).
With this approach, the routing tree is build in same time as the processes
are spawned, and all messages from the HNP can be routed to the leaves.

However, this is far from an optimal solution. Right now, this so called tree
spawn, only spawn the children in a tree without doing anything about the
"connect back to the HNP" step. The HNP is flooded with reports from all the
orted. The total number of messages is higher than in the non tree startup
scheme, so we do not expect this approach to be scalable in the current
incarnation. A complete overhaul of the tree startup is required in order
improve the scalability. Stay tuned!

f139cfd28a Fully enable the use of static ports to minimize connections on mpirun. When static ports are provided, daemons will automatically use routes defined by the selected routed module to callback to mpirun during startup, thus elimating the dedicated daemon-to-mpirun connection. Therefore, the total number of connections on mpirun will equal the fanout of the routed module (instead of #nodes in job).
Add a new tm ess module that exploits this capability.

Update the various plm modules to enable it - just a minor change reflecting an added param to a plm base function.

Additional fixes included:

1. remove an erroneous cleanup of session directories in the tool finalize procedure - tools don't create session directories to begin with!

2. fix a duplicate free when attempting to execute a non-existent app

3. cleanup an typo in the comm utilities 

4. fix comm_spawn - was perturbed by the changes in pack/unpack of orte_job_t to properly support orte-ps

Been tested on slurm and tm machines, using all tests in orte/test/mpi. May run into issue with command line length on large jobs due to inclusion of node info to support static ports - will fix this next with addition of regexp generator to compress that info.

c45ff0d59f Take the next step towards fully utilizing static ports for the daemons to eliminate the initial "phone home" to mpirun by modifying the orted termination procedure to eliminate the need for a full barrier-like operation. Instead, we add a "onesided" barrier to the grpcomm framework API that releases the orted once it has completed its own contribution to the barrier - i.e., the orteds now exit as the "ack" message rolls up towards mpirun instead of sending the "ack" directly to mpirun.
This causes the orteds in the routing tree to remain alive until all termination "acks" from orteds below them have passed through. Thus, if we use static ports, we no longer require a direct orted-to-mpirun connection.

Also modify the binomial routed module so it conforms to what all the other routed modules do and have all messages pass along the routing tree instead of short-circuiting between orteds. This further reduces the number of ports being opened on backend nodes.

f11931306a Modify the accounting system to recycle jobids. Properly recover resources from nodes and jobs upon completion. Adjustments in several places were required to deal with sparsely populated job, node, and proc arrays as a result of this change.
Correct an error wrt how jobids were being computed. Needed to ensure that the job family field was not overrun as we increment jobids for comm_spawn.

Update the slurm plm module so it uses the new slurm termination procedure (brings trunk back into alignment with 1.3 branch).

Update the slurmd ess component so it doesn't get selected if we are running a singleton inside of a slurm allocation.

Cleanup HNP init by moving some code that had been in orte_globals.c for historical reasons into the ess hnp module, and removing the call to that code from the ess_base_std_prolog


NOTE: this change allows orte to support an infinite aggregate number of comm_spawn's, with up to 64k being alive at any one instant. HOWEVER, the MPI layer currently does -not- support re-use of jobids. I did some prototype coding to revise the ompi_proc_t structures, but the BTLs are caching their own data, and there was no readily apparent way to update it. Thus, attempts to spawn more than the 64k limit will abort to avoid causing the MPI layer to hang.

007d68becc Make the data on local children and their jobs available globally on both daemons and the HNP. This simply shifts the data structures from the ODLS base to the orte globals area to support subsequent movement of the daemon collective operations from the odls to the grpcomm framework. As that will be a larger change, it will be implemented on a branch and rolled over separately.

7818779760 Expose the nidmap and pidmap as orte globals so that components in other frameworks can access and/or manipulate them without forcing API modifications - modify the individual ess components that were affected so they use the global variables. Add a list of attributes to the nids for storing node-related data (e.g., modex attrs), and define a new object for that purpose.
Consolidate the nid/pid lookup code with the rest of the nid/pid code so that changes are easier to track. Add the ability to send cluster profile info as part of the nidmap. Cleanup the setup and teardown of the new global nidmap and pidmap objects.

7787f84540 Per the earlier RFC and some discussion at the Dec ORTE design meeting, add the ompi-top tool and all its supporting infrastructure. This includes a new OPAL pstat framework and data type, currently with rather weak support for Mac OSX and pretty complete support for Linux. The Sun team promised to add Solaris support as well.
Also, per chat with Jeff, modified the Makefile.am's of a few orte tools so that they were consistent in the way we generate the ompi-equivalent cmds.

9a57db4a81 To support comm_spawn in fully routed environments, daemons need to know the route to all procs in their job family. They already had this information, but were not retaining it. The infrastructure to do so has existed for some time - just never had the time to complete it.
This commit does that by ensuring that daemons retain knowledge of proc location for all procs in their job family. It required a minor change to the ESS API to allow the daemons to update their pidmaps as data was received. In addition, the routed modules have been updated to take advantage of the newly available info, and the encode/decode pidmap utilities have been updated to communicate the required info in the launch message.

f54fda489e This is a first step towards supporting fully-routed OOB communications:
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...

6e5d844c36 Roll in the revamped IOF subsystem. Per the devel mailing list email, this is a complete rewrite of the iof framework designed to simplify the code for maintainability, and to support features we had planned to do, but were too difficult to implement in the old code. Specifically, the new code:
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.
