pondering about this problem, we came to the conclusion that the best approach
is to keep what we had before (i.e. the original approach).
The main reason for this is being nice with tool developers. In the current
incarnation, they can either catch the Fortran calls or the C calls. If they
provide both, then they will have to figure out how to cope with the double
calls (as your example highlight).
Here is the behavior Open MPI will stick too:
Fortran MPI -> C MPI
Fortran PMPI -> C MPI
However, the is another possible approach. This might avoid the double calls
while preserving the tool writers friendliness. This possible approach will do:
Fortran MPI -> C MPI
Fortran PMPI -> C PMPI
^
Unfortunately, we will have to heavily modify all files in the Fortran
interface layer in order to support this approach.

another bug. This also causes 0-byte requests to be treated as a buffer
error, causing the base request to be requeued. On Cray XT, it may be
temporarily impossible to make allocations for buffer requests, as the
default stack size is small (8 MB) and there is no true swap device.
Even with the stack size increased, there will be cases in which this
condition recurs.
One possibility is to make the buffer allocations off of the heap; but,
this does not change the fact that eventually an out-of-memory condition
will occur and we need to support multiple receives in transit, a
condition for which the available buffer space may change. On the other
hand, if we switch to allocating the buffer space from the heap, we will
need to return an error when the allocation fails and there are no other
buffers in transit.

is >= 1. The default value of the MCA param is now -1, which means
"let someone else turn it on if they want to." So we should default
to ''off'' (false), and let the openib BTL (etc.) turn it on if it
can/wants to.
Failure to do this will default _pipeline to true because
-1(int)==true(bool). This causes a problem if the user tries to set
mpi_leave_pinned_pipeline to 1: they'll get a warning that you can't
set both _pinned and _pinned_pipeline to 1. This happens because
_pinned will get the bool-ified value of of the MCA parameter (-1),
and then the user sets the value of _pinned_pipeline to 1/true.
Hence, both of them are set to true. Bzzt!

What this patch do:
- it use the unexpected queue create by commit r19562 to dispatch the
unexpected message to the right communicator (once this communicator
is created and initialized).
- delay the PML comm_add until we have the context_id for the new communicator.
- only do the PML comm_add on processes that really belong to the new
communicator. Please read the lengthy comment in the source code for the
reason behind this.

Plus some extra features:
- Correctly compute the bandwidth in case of bonding.
- Nicely handle any mapper access errors.

1. Allow MX bonding via btl_mx_bonding MCA parameter. With this on, Open MPI
suppose that lib MX will do the bonding, and we will only return one BTL.
Otherwise, we return as many as devices.
2. Decrease the memory footprint, by cleaning up what we store about the
peers and how we store it.
3. Allow multiple MX routes that share the same mapper. In this particular
case we will link by their nic_id.
4. Allow multiple MX routes with multiple mappers. In this case we match
the NICs based on the last 6 digits of the mapper MAC.
5. Increase the size of the eager and rendez-vous eager limits in the
case where we are unable to register an unexpected callback with MX.
6. Increase the default max number of MX fragments.
7. Increase the max number of MX BTLs.
8. Only allow mx_if_include and mx_if_exclude if we have acess to the
mapper.

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.

unconditionally, which can result in a flood of messages to the user
if all MPI processes invoke abort. Additionally, some users were
confused because they saw the MPI_ABORT opal_output() messages from
''some'' MPI processes, but not ''all'' of them (despite the fact that
every MPI process supposedly invoked MPI_ABORT). The reason is that
calling MPI_ABORT triggers ORTE to kill all MPI processes, so it's a
race condition as to whether a) all MPI processes actually invoke
MPI_ABORT, and/or b) whether every process is able to opal_output()
before they are killed.
This commit does two simple things:
* Now use orte_show_help() for the MPI_ABORT message, so they are
aggregated.
* Add a note in the message that calling MPI_ABORT kills all
processes, so you might not see all output, yadda yadda yadda.

following names are all new for v1.3, and therefore haven't been
officially released yet:
* btl_openib_of_cq_size
* btl_openib_of_max_inline_data
* btl_openib_of_pkey
* btl_openib_of_psn
* btl_openib_of_mtu
The "_of_" (for OpenFabrics) in there is redundant. It used to be
"_ib_", indicating that these values are pretty much passed directly
to the verbs stack. But I think the "openib" in the name implies this
already; having "_of_" in there just seems redundant, makes the name
longer, and seems redundant. It's also redundant.
So I took those "_of_"'s out of the MCA names. The old (v1.2) names
are still valid (but deprecated), such ash btl_openib_ib_cq_size.

Commit from a long-standing Mercurial tree that ended up incorporating a lot of things:
* A few fixes for CPC interface changes in all the CPCs
* Attempts (but not yet finished) to fix shutdown problems in the IB CM CPC
* #1319: add CTS support (i.e., initiator guarantees to send first message; automatically activated for iWARP over the RDMA CM CPC)
* Some variable and function renamings to make this be generic (e.g., alloc_credit_frag became alloc_control_frag)
* CPCs no longer post receive buffers; they only post a single receive buffer for the CTS if they use CTS. Instead, the main BTL now posts the main sets of receive buffers.
* CPCs allocate a CTS buffer only if they're about to make a connection
* RDMA CM improvements:
* Use threaded mode openib fd monitoring to wait for for RDMA CM events
* Synchronize endpoint finalization and disconnection between main thread and service thread to avoid/fix some race conditions
* Converted several structs to be OBJs so that we can use reference counting to know when to invoke destructors
* Make some new OBJ's have opal_list_item_t's as their base, thereby eliminating the need for the local list_item_t type
* Renamed many variables to be internally consistent
* Centralize the decision in an inline function as to whether this process or the remote process is supposed to be the initiator
* Add oodles of OPAL_OUTPUT statements for debugging (hard-wired to output stream -1; to be activated by developers if they want/need them)
* Use rdma_create_qp() instead of ibv_create_qp()
* openib fd monitoring improvements:
* Renamed a bunch of functions and variables to be a little more obvious as to their true function
* Use pipes to communicate between main thread and service thread
* Add ability for main thread to invoke a function back on the service thread
* Ensure to set initiator_depth and responder_resources properly, but putting max_qp_rd_ataom and ma_qp_init_rd_atom in the modex (see rdma_connect(3))
* Ensure to set the source IP address in rdma_resolve() to ensure that we select the correct OpenFabrics source port
* Make new MCA param: openib_btl_connect_rdmacm_resolve_timeout
* Other improvements:
* btl_openib_device_type MCA param: can be "iw" or "ib" or "all" (or "infiniband" or "iwarp")
* Somewhat improved error handling
* Bunches of spelling fixes in comments, VERBOSE, and OUTPUT statements
* Oodles of little coding style fixes
* Changed shutdown ordering of btl; the device is now an OBJ with ref counting for destruction
* Added some more show_help error messages
* Change configury to only build IBCM / RDMACM if we have threads (because we need a progress thread)

got a whole lot smaller, decreasing the memory footprint of the
running application. How much it's a good question. Here is a
breakdown:
- in mca_bml_base_endpoint_t: 3 *size_t + 1 * uint32_t
- in mca_bml_base_btl_t: 1 * int + 1 * double - 1 * float
+ 6 * size_t + 9 * (void*)
The decrease in mca_bml_base_endpoint_t is for each peer and the
decrease in mca_bml_base_btl_t is for each BTL for each peer.
So, if we consider the most convenient case where there is only
one network between all peers, this decrease the memory foot print
per peer by
9*size_t + 9*(void*) + 2 * int32_t + 1 * double - 1 * float.
On a 64 bits machine this will be 156 bytes per peer.
Now we access all these fields directly from the underlying BTL
structure, and as this structure is common to multiple BML endpoint,
we are a lot more cache friendly. Even if this do not improve the
latency, it makes the SM performance graph a lot smoother.

(related to the presence of posix threads and ptmalloc2) is now a
little outdated: since we don't build ptmalloc2 as part of libopal
anymore, the openib BTL's requirements are not directly tied to
ptmalloc2's anymore. Specifically, I altered the test to:
1. At compile time, if no threads are found, the ptmalloc2 component
is going to be built, '''and the ptmalloc2 component is going to be
inside libopal,''' then refuse to build the openib BTL.
1. At run time, if no threads were available at compile time and the
ptmalloc2 component is part of the process, then refuse to use the
openib BTL.

always in a heterogeneous way in order to be able to support extern32. It
doesn't really matter as it is outside the critical path.
This commit was SVN r19651.
Rationale:
1. This value has already changed since v1.2 (v1.2 MPI_MAX_PORT_NAME
== 36). Hence, this commit simply increases the value from a
previous change.
1. The changes does increase OMPI's memory footprint slightly, but
only when using MPI-2 dynamics. So it is expected that the change
will have minimal impact on the overall footprint.
1. The change is helpful for nodes that have 4 or more IP networks
(e.g., regular ethernet and multiple IP-over-<pick your favorite
high-speed network> networks). Without this change, invoking
MPI_COMM_SPAWN on hosts with 4 or more IP networks will fail
because we'll exceed 256 bytes for the port name. Some OMPI
developer test clusters already have this kind of configuration
(e.g., Cisco); it is expected that this is not too common in the
real world yet, but with "manycore" coming, having multiple
IP-based networks in a single server will likely become more
common.

help messages so that users only see the message once instead of N
times when their MPI app crashes.
Note that there is a tradeoff here -- we now call malloc in this
particular "show the error" code path. This shouldn't usually be a
problem, because the errors typically displayed through this mechanism
are MPI API argument problems (e.g., sending a negative count to
MPI_SEND), and not memory errors. But such API argument errors could
be a consequence of of a prior memory error, so there's a nonzero
chance that the error failure will fail to print because malloc
failed. In this case, the user can disable help message aggregation
(via the orte_base_want_aggregate MCA parameter) and we'll fall back
to the no-malloc code path (but without aggregation).
Note that we won't aggregate before MPI_INIT or after MPI_FINALIZE.
So if you call an MPI function before MPI_INIT / after MPI_FINALIZE,
you'll still see the error message N times. Nothing we can do about
that; we need ORTE to do the aggregation properly (which is obviously
unavailable before MPI_INIT / after MPI_FINALIZE).

Advice to implementors. An application may often repeat a call to
MPI_TYPE_CREATE_F90_xxxx with the same combination of (xxxx,p,r).
The application is not allowed to free the returned predefined, unnamed

handles, the MPI implementation should return the same datatype handle for
the same (REAL/COMPLEX/INTEGER,p,r) combination. Checking for the
combination (p,r) in the preceding call to MPI_TYPE_CREATE_F90_xxxx and
using a hash-table to find formerly generated handles should limit the
overhead of finding a previously generated datatype with same combination

- bcast_intra_seg used the bcast of lcomm and llcomm, similarly
to original algorithm in hierarch. However, it can segment
the message, such that we might get an overlap between the two
layers. This overlap is based on the assumption, that a process
might be done early with a bcast and can start the next one.
- bcast_intra_seg1: replaces the llcomm->bcast by isend/irecvs
to increase the overlap, keeps the lcomm->bcast however
- bcast_intra_seg2: replaced lcomm->bcast by isend/irecvs
to increase the overlap, keeps however llcomm->bcast
- bcast_intra_seg3: replaced both lcomm->bcast and llcomm->bcast
by isend/irecvs
The code is lightly tested, more testing to follow right now.
