Coverity identified that we treated the possibility that one of the
message buffers could be NULL in some places (because strdup() could
fail), but not in others.
So just use stack buffers that will never be NULL.
This was CID 1269914.
These two macros set the prefix for the OPAL and ORTE libraries,
respectively. Specifically, the OPAL library will be named
libPREFIXopen-pal.la and the ORTE library will be named
libPREFIXopen-rte.la.
These macros must be called, even if the prefix argument is empty.
The intent is that Open MPI will call these macros with an empty
prefix, but other projects (such as ORCM) will call these macros with
a non-empty prefix. For example, ORCM libraries can be named
liborcm-open-pal.la and liborcm-open-rte.la.
This scheme is necessary to allow running Open MPI applications under
systems that use their own versions of ORTE and OPAL. For example,
when running MPI applications under ORTE, if the ORTE and OPAL
libraries between OMPI and ORCM are not identical (which, because they
are released at different times, are likely to be different), we need
to ensure that the OMPI applications link against their ORTE and OPAL
libraries, but the ORCM executables link against their ORTE and OPAL
libraries.
the OPAL and ORTE libraries. This is required by projects such as ORCM
that have their own ORTE and OPAL libraries in order to avoid library
confusion. By renaming their version of the libraries, the OMPI
applications can correctly dynamically load the correct one for their
build."

gfortran 4.8 does not support storage_size() on all relevant types
that we need. So add a configure test to check and see if the
compiler's storage_size() intrinsic supports enough types for us to do
MPI_SIZEOF.
Also remove an accidentally redundant check for fortran INTERFACE.

Ticket 4917 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/4917
What started as a simple ticket ended up reaching the way up to the
MPI Forum.
It turns out that we are supposed to have MPI_SIZEOF for all Fortran
interfaces: mpif.h, the mpi module, and the mpi_f08 module.
It further turns out that to properly support MPI_SIZEOF, your Fortran
compiler *has* support the INTERFACE keyword and ISO_FORTRAN_ENV. We
can't use "ignore TKR" functionality, because the whole point of
MPI_SIZEOF is that the implementation knows what type was passed to it
("ignore TKR" functionality, by definition, throws that information
away). Hence, we have to have an MPI_SIZEOF interface+implementation
for all intrinsic types, kinds, and ranks.
This commit therefore adds a perl script that generates both the
interfaces and implementations for MPI_SIZEOF in each of mpif.h, the
mpi module, and mpi_f08 module (yay consolidation!).
The perl script uses the results of some new configure tests:
* check if the Fortran compiler supports the INTERFACE keyword
* check if the Fortran compiler supports ISO_FORTRAN_ENV
* find the max array rank (i.e., dimension) that the compiler supports
If the Fortran compiler supports both INTERFACE and ISO_FORTRAN_ENV,
then we'll build the MPI_SIZEOF interfaces. If not, we'll skip
MPI_SIZEOF in mpif.h and the mpi module. Note that we won't build the
mpi_f08 module -- to include the MPI_SIZEOF interfaces -- if the
Fortran compiler doesn't support INTERFACE, ISO_FORTRAN_ENV, and a
whole bunch of ther modern Fortran stuff.
Since MPI_SIZEOF interfaces are now generated by the perl script, this
commit also removes all the old MPI_SIZEOF implementations (which were
laden with a zillion #if blocks).

WHAT: Open our low-level communication infrastructure by moving all necessary components (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool) down in OPAL
All the components required for inter-process communications are currently deeply integrated in the OMPI layer. Several groups/institutions have express interest in having a more generic communication infrastructure, without all the OMPI layer dependencies. This communication layer should be made available at a different software level, available to all layers in the Open MPI software stack. As an example, our ORTE layer could replace the current OOB and instead use the BTL directly, gaining access to more reactive network interfaces than TCP. Similarly, external software libraries could take advantage of our highly optimized AM (active message) communication layer for their own purpose. UTK with support from Sandia, developped a version of Open MPI where the entire communication infrastucture has been moved down to OPAL (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool). Most of the moved components have been updated to match the new schema, with few exceptions (mainly BTLs where I have no way of compiling/testing them). Thus, the completion of this RFC is tied to being able to completing this move for all BTLs. For this we need help from the rest of the Open MPI community, especially those supporting some of the BTLs. A non-exhaustive list of BTLs that qualify here is: mx, portals4, scif, udapl, ugni, usnic.

Add a configure test to see if the Fortran compiler supports the
PROTECTED keyword. If it does, use in mpi-f08-types.F90 (via a macro
defined in configure-fortran-output-bottom.h).
This is needed to support the PGI 9 Fortran compiler, which does not
support the PROTECTED keyword.
Note that regardless of whether we want to support the PGI 9 Fortran
compiler + mpi_f08, we need to correctly detect whether PROTECTED
works or not, and then use that determination as a criteria for
building the mpi_f08 module. Previously, mpi-f08-types.F90 used
PROTECTED unconditionally, and we didn't test for it in configure. So
if a compiler (e.g., PGI 9) supported everything else but didn't
support PROTECTED, it would try to compile the mpi_f08 stuff and choke
on the use of PROTECTED.

BIND(C), but not ''all'' of it. So expand our configure checks to
look for multiple different forms of BIND(C):
* ISO_C_BINDING
* SUBROUTINE ... BIND(C)
* TYPE, BIND(C)
* TYPE(foo), BIND(C, name="bar")
If the compiler supports all of these, then declare that we support
BIND(C), and the rest of the mpi_f08 checks can continue. If we miss
any one of those, don't bother continuing -- we won't build the
mpi_f08 module.
Also push the results of all of these tests down to ompi_info so that
they can be reported easily (e.g., "Hey, why doesn't my OMPI
installation have the mpi_f08 module?").

Reworked ompi_info tool to be close with orte_info implementation.
ompi_info_register_types(), ompi_info_close_components() and
ompi_info_show_ompi_version() are moved to runtime/ompi_info_support.c.
Added runtime/oshmem_info_support layer that exports following api to be

oshmem_info_register_types()
oshmem_info_register_framework_params()
oshmem_info_close_components()
oshmem_info_show_oshmem_version()
These functions call ompi_info_support related interfaces as long as
Oshmem supports Open MPI/SHMEM combination.
Now orte_info/ompi_info/oshmem_info have identical implementation approach.
Possible improvement:
OSHMEM processing of --config option is the same as OMPI`s (code is duplicated).
Probably list of info_support interfaces can be extended by xxx_info_do_config().

This commit changes the default behavior of ompi_info --all when a

now assume level 9. This change is due to feedback from the community

*** 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.

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

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().

This commit was SVN r28236.
We ran into a case where the OMPI SVN trunk grew a new acceptable MCA
parameter value, but this new value was not accepted on the v1.6
branch (hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action -- on the trunk it accepts
the value "silent", but on the older v1.6 branch, it doesn't). If you
set "hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action=silent" in the default MCA
params file and then accidentally ran with the v1.6 branch, every OMPI
executable (including ompi_info) just failed because hwloc_base_open()
would say "hey, 'silent' is not a valid value for
hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action!". Kaboom.
The only problem is that it didn't give you any indication of where
this value was being set. Quite maddening, from a user perspective.
So we changed the ompi_info handles this case. If any framework open
function return OMPI_ERR_BAD_PARAM (either because its base MCA params
got a bad value or because one of its component register/open
functions return OMPI_ERR_BAD_PARAM), ompi_info will stop, print out
a warning that it received and error, and then dump out the parameters
that it has received so far in the framework that had a problem.
At a minimum, this will show the user the MCA param that had an error
(it's usually the last one), and ''where it was set from'' (so that
they can go fix it).
We updated ompi_info to check for O???_ERR_BAD_PARAM from each from
the framework opens. Also updated the doxygen docs in mca.h for this
O???_BAD_PARAM behavior. And we noticed that mca.h had MCA_SUCCESS
and MCA_ERR_??? codes. Why? I think we used them in exactly one
place in the code base (mca_base_components_open.c). So we deleted
those and just used the normal OPAL_* codes instead.
While we were doing this, we also cleaned up a little memory
management during ompi_info/orte-info/opal-info finalization.
Valgrind still reports a truckload of memory still in use at ompi_info
termination, but they mostly look to be components not freeing
memory/resources properly (and outside the scope of this fix).

aren't separated out into individual commits; they represent a few
months of work in the Mercurial branch, and it seemed error-prone to
try to break them up into multiple SVN commits.
* Remove 2nd overloaded interfaces for MPI_TESTALL, MPI_TESTSOME,
MPI_WAITALL, and MPI_WAITSOME in the "mpi" module implementations
(because we're not allowed to have them, anyway -- it causes
complications in the profiling interface). This forced an MPI-2.2
errata in the MPI Forum; we applied the errata here (the array of
statuses parameter could not have a specific dimension specified in
the dummy argument). Fixes trac:3166.
* Similarly, fix type for MPI_ARGVS_NULL in Fortran
* Add MPI_3.0 function MPI_F_SYNC_REG (Fortran interfaces only).
* Add MPI-3.0 MPI_MESSAGE_NO_PROC in the mpi_f08 module.
* Added mpi_f08 handle comparison operators, per MPI-3.0 addendum to
the F08 proposal at the last Forum meeting.
* Added missing type(MPI_File) and type(Message) in mpi_f08 module.
* Fix --disable-mpi-io configure switch with all Fortran interfaces
* Re-factor the Fortran header files to be fundamentally simpler and
easier to maintain. Fortran constant values in the header files
are now generated by a script named mpif-values.pl during
autogen.pl (they were previously generated by mpif-common.pl, but
it was quite a bit more subtle/complex). A second commit will
follow this one to update svn:ignore values (just to ensure we
don't muck up the first commit with the SVN client getting confused
by the changed ignore values and new/changed files).
* Fix some dependencies for compile ordering in
ompi/mpi/fortran/use-mpi-ignore-tkr/Makefile.am.
* Fix bad wording in several places (.m4 file name, ompi_info output,
etc.): we previoulsy said "F08 assumed shape" when we really meant
"F08 assumed rank" (for Fortran gurus, those are very different
things).
* Removed the GREEK/SVN version string from mpif.h. It really had no
purpose being there.
Still to be done:
* Handling of 2D array of strings in MPI_COMM_SPAWN_MULTIPLE still
isn't right yet. Not sure how many people really care about this
:-), but it is still broken.
