2. Checking for 0 bytes datatypes and sending only when data available to avoid 0 byte messages being sent and received.
3. Changing timing extraction to support calculating, min, max and avg communication costs + min and avg write costs
This commit was SVN r26450.
* Need to look at slot count before flowcontrol for sending to prevent
race in restart
* Need to free pending request fragments when done with the request
* A number of branch prediction optimizations for error conditions

helper file, even if we find that the system has <infiniband/verbs.h>.
The reason is because there are some inline functions in that verbs
helper file that invoke ibv_* functions. Some linkers (e.g., Solaris
Studio Compilers) will instantiate those static inline functions --
even if we don't use them -- and therefore we need to be able to
resolve the ibv_* symbols at link time.
But since -libverbs is only specified in places where we use other
ibv_* functions (e.g., the OpenFabrics-based BTLs), that means that
linking random executables can/will fail (e.g., orterun).
So instead, introduce a new #define: OPAL_HWLOC_WANT_VERBS_HELPER. If
this macro is set to 1 before including opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc.h, then
you'll also get the hwloc OpenFabrics verbs helper header file (*if*
hwloc found <infiniband/verbs.h> -- otherwise, it'll #error).
This commit was SVN r26417.
* Remove paffinity, maffinity, and carto frameworks -- they've been
wholly replaced by hwloc.
* Move ompi_mpi_init() affinity-setting/checking code down to ORTE.
* Update sm, smcuda, wv, and openib components to no longer use carto.
Instead, use hwloc data. There are still optimizations possible in
the sm/smcuda BTLs (i.e., making multiple mpools). Also, the old
carto-based code found out how many NUMA nodes were ''available''
-- not how many were used ''in this job''. The new hwloc-using
code computes the same value -- it was not updated to calculate how
many NUMA nodes are used ''by this job.''
* Note that I cannot compile the smcuda and wv BTLs -- I ''think''
they're right, but they need to be verified by their owners.
* The openib component now does a bunch of stuff to figure out where
"near" OpenFabrics devices are. '''THIS IS A CHANGE IN DEFAULT
BEHAVIOR!!''' and still needs to be verified by OpenFabrics vendors
(I do not have a NUMA machine with an OpenFabrics device that is a
non-uniform distance from multiple different NUMA nodes).
* Completely rewrite the OMPI_Affinity_str() routine from the
"affinity" mpiext extension. This extension now understands
hyperthreads; the output format of it has changed a bit to reflect
this new information.
* Bunches of minor changes around the code base to update names/types
from maffinity/paffinity-based names to hwloc-based names.
* Add some helper functions into the hwloc base, mainly having to do
with the fact that we have the hwloc data reporting ''all''
topology information, but sometimes you really only want the
(online | available) data.
