This commit adds support for placing the send memory segment in a
traditional shared memory segment when XPMEM is not available. The
current default is to reserve 4MB for shared memory on each process.
The latest benchmarks show vader performing better than sm on both
Intel and AMD CPUs.
For large messages vader will now use CMA if it is available (and
XPMEM is not).

Per RFC which expired two weeks ago:
We are planning to make a change to Open MPI to always set up the btls. This
means the btl init will be called even if add_procs is never called for that
btl. In the openib btl free lists fragments are currently allocated in btl_init.
To avoid wasting that memory this commit moves that final device setup to
the add_procs function. This included allocating free lists, and starting the
async event thread.
At this time this change is safe since we have a barrier after add_procs in
MPI_Init. If this changes we will need to re-think some of the initialization
since we might have the possibility of a connection request before add_procs
is called.
Tested with Mellanox ConnectX2 and QLogic HCAs.

1. Fix ompi_info memory leak in usnic BTL: do not allocate memory in
the component register function, because ompi_info only calls the
component register function and then dlclose's the component -- it
does not call component finalize. Instead, defer parsing the MCA
param (and alloc'ing memory) until the component init function so
that any allocated memory can be freed in the component close
function.
1. Also add a new check to ensure that we actually have some part
numbers to check. Add a show_help message if we don't find any

Cisco v1.6 git commit 913ec6c and upstream trunk r29593 (segfault fix)
introduced a performance regression by inadvertently disabling the
`module_recv_buffers` functionality. With those changes in place, the
`btl_usnic_recv.c` logic would end up mallocing a buffer that should
have otherwise come from a `module_recv_buffers` pool. It also resulted
in a small, bounded memory leak (128 buffers at each power-of-two size
interval).
The new version just places the buffer after the free list item with a
flexible array member. I bumped the pool to allocate all 128 elements
up front because the deferred allocation was modestly impacting IMB
Sendrecv performance at a few sizes.

Without this commit, if you run IMB pingpong between two nodes with only
one usnic selected (e.g., via `--mca btl_usnic_if_include usnic_0`) then
the run will seem fine but will segfault at MPI_Finalize time.
This behavior has happened since Cisco v1.6 git commit ec7ddf8, upstream
trunk r29484, and upstream v1.7 r29507.
Root cause was that the free list element was being used as the recv
buffer instead of the data buffer associated with the element. So the
reassembly code would stomp all over the free list element, which would
cause the destructor to explode when the free list attempted to clean up
all of its elements. This surprisingly did not cause any other problems
until now.

This commit moves all the module stats into their own struct so that
the stats only need to appear as a single line in the module_t
definition, and then moves all the logic for reporting the stats into
btl_usnic_stats.c|h.
Further, the stats are now exported as MPI_T_BIND_NO_OBJECT entities
(i.e., not bound to any particular MPI handle), and are marked as
READONLY and CONTINUOUS. They currently all default to verbose level
5 ("Application tuner / detailed", according to
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/MCAParamLevels).
Most of the statistics are counters, but a small number are high
watermark values. Due to how counters are reported via MPI_T, none of
the counters are exported through MPI_T if the MCA param
btl_usnic_stats_relative=1 (i.e., the module resets the stats back to
zero at a given frequency).
When MPI_T_pvar_handle_alloc() is invoked on any of these pvars, it
will return a count that is equal to the number of active usnic BTL
modules. The values returned for any given pvar (e.g.,
num_total_sends) are an array containing one value for each active
usnic BTL module. The ordering of values in the array is both
consistent across all usnic pvars and stable throughout a single job:
array slot 0 corresponds to module X, array slot 1 corresponds to
module Y, etc.
Mapping which array slot corresponds to which underlying Linux usnic_X
device works as follows:
* The btl_usnic_devices MPI_T state pvar is associated with a
btl_usnic_device MPI_T enum, and be obtained via
MPI_T_pvar_get_info().
* If all usNIC pvars are of length N, the values [0,N) in the
btl_usnic_device enum are associated with strings of the
corresponding underlying Linux device.
For exampe, to look up which Linux device is reported in all usNIC
pvars' array slot 1, look up the int value 1 in the btl_usnic_devices
enum. Its corresponding string value is underlying Linux device name
(e.g., "usnic_1").

The fix for the HPL SEGV was incorrect because it assumed the
prepare_src() routine was always allowed to return "bytes processed"
less than the requested "bytes to send". It turns out this is only true
if the convertor is what limits the size, we are not allowed to limit
the data sent for our own reasons, else we break login in the upper
layers.
This means we need to learn the number of bytes out of the size
requested the convertor will give us, no matter how big the size is.
Unfortunately, this is a destructive test, and (currently) the only way to
learn that number is to actually have the convertor copy the data out into
buffers.
This change implements this, copying the entire data out into a chain of
send segments which are attached to the large send fragment. Now we can
always return the proper size value to the PML.

*** THIS RFC INCLUDES A MINOR CHANGE TO THE MPI-RTE INTERFACE ***
Note: during the course of this work, it was necessary to completely separate the MPI and RTE progress engines. There were multiple places in the MPI layer where ORTE_WAIT_FOR_COMPLETION was being used. A new OMPI_WAIT_FOR_COMPLETION macro was created (defined in ompi/mca/rte/rte.h) that simply cycles across opal_progress until the provided flag becomes false. Places where the MPI layer blocked waiting for RTE to complete an event have been modified to use this macro.
***************************************************************************************
I am reissuing this RFC because of the time that has passed since its original release. Since its initial release and review, I have debugged it further to ensure it fully supports tests like loop_spawn. It therefore seems ready for merge back to the trunk. Given its prior review, I have set the timeout for one week.
The code is in https://bitbucket.org/rhc/ompi-oob2
WHAT: Rewrite of ORTE OOB
WHY: Support asynchronous progress and a host of other features
WHEN: Wed, August 21
SYNOPSIS:
The current OOB has served us well, but a number of limitations have been identified over the years. Specifically:
* it is only progressed when called via opal_progress, which can lead to hangs or recursive calls into libevent (which is not supported by that code)
* we've had issues when multiple NICs are available as the code doesn't "shift" messages between transports - thus, all nodes had to be available via the same TCP interface.
* the OOB "unloads" incoming opal_buffer_t objects during the transmission, thus preventing use of OBJ_RETAIN in the code when repeatedly sending the same message to multiple recipients
* there is no failover mechanism across NICs - if the selected NIC (or its attached switch) fails, we are forced to abort
* only one transport (i.e., component) can be "active"
The revised OOB resolves these problems:
* async progress is used for all application processes, with the progress thread blocking in the event library
* each available TCP NIC is supported by its own TCP module. The ability to asynchronously progress each module independently is provided, but not enabled by default (a runtime MCA parameter turns it "on")
* multi-address TCP NICs (e.g., a NIC with both an IPv4 and IPv6 address, or with virtual interfaces) are supported - reachability is determined by comparing the contact info for a peer against all addresses within the range covered by the address/mask pairs for the NIC.
* a message that arrives on one TCP NIC is automatically shifted to whatever NIC that is connected to the next "hop" if that peer cannot be reached by the incoming NIC. If no TCP module will reach the peer, then the OOB attempts to send the message via all other available components - if none can reach the peer, then an "error" is reported back to the RML, which then calls the errmgr for instructions.
* opal_buffer_t now conforms to standard object rules re OBJ_RETAIN as we no longer "unload" the incoming object
* NIC failure is reported to the TCP component, which then tries to resend the message across any other available TCP NIC. If that doesn't work, then the message is given back to the OOB base to try using other components. If all that fails, then the error is reported to the RML, which reports to the errmgr for instructions
* obviously from the above, multiple OOB components (e.g., TCP and UD) can be active in parallel
* the matching code has been moved to the RML (and out of the OOB/TCP component) so it is independent of transport
* routing is done by the individual OOB modules (as opposed to the RML). Thus, both routed and non-routed transports can simultaneously be active
* all blocking send/recv APIs have been removed. Everything operates asynchronously.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
* although provision is made for component failover as described above, the code for doing so has not been fully implemented yet. At the moment, if all connections for a given peer fail, the errmgr is notified of a "lost connection", which by default results in termination of the job if it was a lifeline
* the IPv6 code is present and compiles, but is not complete. Since the current IPv6 support in the OOB doesn't work anyway, I don't consider this a blocker
* routing is performed at the individual module level, yet the active routed component is selected on a global basis. We probably should update that to reflect that different transports may need/choose to route in different ways
* obviously, not every error path has been tested nor necessarily covered
* determining abnormal termination is more challenging than in the old code as we now potentially have multiple ways of connecting to a process. Ideally, we would declare "connection failed" when *all* transports can no longer reach the process, but that requires some additional (possibly complex) code. For now, the code replicates the old behavior only somewhat modified - i.e., if a module sees its connection fail, it checks to see if it is a lifeline. If so, it notifies the errmgr that the lifeline is lost - otherwise, it notifies the errmgr that a non-lifeline connection was lost.
* reachability is determined solely on the basis of a shared subnet address/mask - more sophisticated algorithms (e.g., the one used in the tcp btl) are required to handle routing via gateways
* the RML needs to assign sequence numbers to each message on a per-peer basis. The receiving RML will then deliver messages in order, thus preventing out-of-order messaging in the case where messages travel across different transports or a message needs to be redirected/resent due to failure of a NIC

Commit r27211 added ifdef checks for #define
HAVE_IBV_LINK_LAYER_ETHERNET, which is incorrect. The correct #define
is HAVE_DECL_IBV_LINK_LAYER_ETHERNET. This broke OMPI over iWARP.
This fixes trac:3726 and should be added to cmr:v1.7.3:reviewer=jsquyres

* add a new MCA param orte_hostname_cutoff to specify the number of nodes at which we stop including hostnames. This defaults to INT_MAX => always include hostnames. If a value is given, then we will include hostnames for any allocation smaller than the given limit.
* remove ompi_proc_get_hostname. Replace all occurrences with a direct link to ompi_proc_t's proc_hostname, protected by appropriate "if NULL"
* modify the OMPI-ORTE integration component so that any call to modex_recv automatically loads the ompi_proc_t->proc_hostname field as well as returning the requested info. Thus, any process whose modex info you retrieve will automatically receive the hostname. Note that on-demand retrieval is still enabled - i.e., if we are running under direct launch with PMI, the hostname will be fetched upon first call to modex_recv, and then the ompi_proc_t->proc_hostname field will be loaded
* removed a stale MCA param "mpi_keep_peer_hostnames" that was no longer used anywhere in the code base
* added an envar lookup in ess/pmi for the number of nodes in the allocation. Sadly, PMI itself doesn't provide that info, so we have to get it a different way. Currently, we support PBS-based systems and SLURM - for any other, rank0 will emit a warning and we assume max number of daemons so we will always retain hostnames
This commit was SVN r29052.
This creates a really bad scaling behavior. Users have found a nearly 20% launch time differential between mpirun and PMI, with PMI being the slower method. Some of the problem is attributable to poor exchange algorithms in RM's like Slurm and Alps, but we make things worse by calling "get" so many times.
Nathan (with a tad advice from me) has attempted to alleviate this problem by reducing the number of "get" calls. This required the following changes:
* upon first request for data, have the OPAL db pmi component fetch and decode *all* the info from a given remote proc. It turned out we weren't caching the info, so we would continually request it and only decode the piece we needed for the immediate request. We now decode all the info and push it into the db hash component for local storage - and then all subsequent retrievals are fulfilled locally
* reduced the amount of data by eliminating the exchange of the OMPI_ARCH value if heterogeneity is not enabled. This was used solely as a check so we would error out if the system wasn't actually homogeneous, which was fine when we thought there was no cost in doing the check. Unfortunately, at large scale and with direct launch, there is a non-zero cost of making this test. We are open to finding a compromise (perhaps turning the test off if requested?), if people feel strongly about performing the test
* reduced the amount of RTE data being automatically fetched, and fetched the rest only upon request. In particular, we no longer immediately fetch the hostname (which is only used for error reporting), but instead get it when needed. Likewise for the RML uri as that info is only required for some (not all) environments. In addition, we no longer fetch the locality unless required, relying instead on the PMI clique info to tell us who is on our local node (if additional info is required, the fetch is performed when a modex_recv is issued).
Again, all this only impacts direct launch - all the info is provided when launched via mpirun as there is no added cost to getting it
Barring objections, we may move this (plus any required other pieces) to the 1.7 branch once it soaks for an appropriate time.

improvements:
* Fix minor memory leaks during component_init
* Ensure that an initialization loop does not underflow an unsigned int
* Improve mlock limit checking
* Fix set of BTL modules created during component_init when failing to
get QP resources or otherwise excluding some (but not all) usnic
verbs devices
* Fix/improve error messages to be consistent with other Cisco
documentation
* Randomize the initial sliding window sequence number so that we
silently drop incoming frames from previous jobs that still have
existant processes in the middle of dying (and are still
transmitting)
* Ensure we don't break out of add_procs too soon and create an
asymetrical view of what interfaces are available

Use the new sysfs files to check that there are enough VFs, QPs, and
CQs for all the MPI processes on this server.
Move the checking code into its own subroutine to make it smaller and
easier to read/grok.

Brian (rightfully) hit me on the head with the
don't-use-ORTE-use-the-rte-framework clue bat; the usnic BTL now
nicely plays with the RTE framework.
This commit was SVN r28907.
This BTL accesses the Cisco usNIC Linux device via the Linux verbs
API via Unreliable Datagram queue pairs. A few noteworthy points:
* This BTL does most of its own fragmentation; it tells the PML that
it has a very high max_send_size (much higher than the network
MTU).
* Since UD fragments are, by definition, unreliable, the usnic BTL
handles all of its own reliability via a sliding window approach
using the opal_hotel construct and many tricks stolen from the
corpus of knowledge surrounding efficient TCP.
* There is a fun PML latency-metric based optimization for NUMA
awareness of short messages.
* Note that this is ''not'' a generic UD verbs BTL; it is specific to
the Cisco usNIC device.

with other MPI implementations.

value to signal that the operation of retrieving the element from the free list
failed. However in this case the returned pointer was set to NULL as well, so the
error code was redundant. Moreover, this was a continuous source of warnings when
the picky mode is on.
The attached parch remove the rc argument from the OMPI_FREE_LIST_GET and
OMPI_FREE_LIST_WAIT macros, and change to check if the item is NULL instead of
using the return code.
This commit was SVN r28722.
As per discussion in the June 2013 developer meeting these
flags will be used by the PML in the future to request
asynchronous progress on an operation. The naming was chosen
to reflect that a BTL supports this mode (MCA_BTL_FLAG_SIGNALED)
and that a descriptor should "signal" the remote side to wake
up and progress the message (MCA_BTL_DES_FLAG_SIGNAL).
Future commits will update OB1 to take advantage of this
feature when performing the RDMA get or RDMA rendezvous
protocols.

commit is the trunk version of what is needed for #3626.
Add the "ignore_device" field to the INI file. This allows us to
specifically list devices that should be ignored by the openib BTL
(such as the Intel Phi, at least as of May 2013 -- see #3626).
Also add the Intel Phi to the ini file, and set its ignore_device=1.
Finally, add the concept of counting intentionally ignored verbs
devices. Devices are ignored for one of two reasons:
* If the number of allowed ports on that device is 0 (i.e., if
if_include/if_exclude was set such that we're intentionally
ignoring this device).
* If the INI ignore_device field for this device is set to 1.
Once we have the count of devices that were intentionally ignored,
only show the "Hey, there's verbs devices that you're not using!"
show_help message if there are devices that were ''unintentionally''
ignored.

Ticket 3626 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/3626
The primary issue with udcm is that the immediate data in message
acks were often bogus. This caused the sender to keep trying even
though a message was received and acked. The fix is to use the
source LID and QP to determine which message is being acked. In
most cases this should work well since only one message will be
in flight to any peer.

from the list (just for good measure), and then free() it (without
using _SAFE, we were accessing memory that was just free()'d to get to
the next item). Also be a little more thorough -- DESTRUCT the list

(i.e., ensure that more data items get zeroed out/set to NULL) so that
if something goes wrong during initialization, we don't try to clean
up something that isn't there (and segv).
The chance of this happening on the trunk is very low (and will also
be low once the verbs improvements are brought over to v1.7). But it
can actually happen in the v1.6 branch (e.g., if no CPC is available,
we'll try to get the length of the endpoints list, but the endpoints
list is NULL).
Hence, even though the real goal is to get this functionality over to
v1.6, I figured I'd commit to the trunk/CMR to v1.7 just to try to
keep commonality in the openib between all three where possible.
This commit was SVN r28317.
Notes:
- This commit also eliminates the need for an available components list in use
in several frameworks. None of the code in question was making use of the
priority field of the priority component list item so these extra lists were
removed.
- Cleaned up selection code in several frameworks to sort lists using opal_list_sort.
- Cleans up the ompi/orte-info functions. Expose the functions that construct the
list of params so they can be used elsewhere.
patches for mtl/portals4 from brian
missed a few output variables in openib
This commit was SVN r28241.
Features:
- Support for an override parameter file (openmpi-mca-param-override.conf).
Variable values in this file can not be overridden by any file or environment
value.
- Support for boolean, unsigned, and unsigned long long variables.
- Support for true/false values.
- Support for enumerations on integer variables.
- Support for MPIT scope, verbosity, and binding.
- Support for command line source.
- Support for setting variable source via the environment using
OMPI_MCA_SOURCE_<var name>=source (either command or file:filename)
- Cleaner API.
- Support for variable groups (equivalent to MPIT categories).
Notes:
- Variables must be created with a backing store (char **, int *, or bool *)
that must live at least as long as the variable.
- Creating a variable with the MCA_BASE_VAR_FLAG_SETTABLE enables the use of
mca_base_var_set_value() to change the value.
- String values are duplicated when the variable is registered. It is up to
the caller to free the original value if necessary. The new value will be
freed by the mca_base_var system and must not be freed by the user.
- Variables with constant scope may not be settable.
- Variable groups (and all associated variables) are deregistered when the
component is closed or the component repository item is freed. This
prevents a segmentation fault from accessing a variable after its component
is unloaded.
- After some discussion we decided we should remove the automatic registration
of component priority variables. Few component actually made use of this
feature.
- The enumerator interface was updated to be general enough to handle
future uses of the interface.
- The code to generate ompi_info output has been moved into the MCA variable
system. See mca_base_var_dump().

peer realized that we both initiated a connect at the same time, and
therefore it decided to hang up.

flags, and mca flags are kept seperate until the very end. The main configure
wrapper flags should now be modified by using the OPAL_WRAPPER_FLAGS_ADD
macro. MCA components should either let <framework>_<component>_{LIBS,LDFLAGS}
be copied over OR set <framework>_<component>_WRAPPER_EXTRA_{LIBS,LDFLAGS}.
The situations in which WRAPPER CPPFLAGS can be set by MCA components was
made very small to match the one use case where it makes sense.
