figure it out at runtime (really meaning: we'll still default to "0"
unless something explicitly overrides to 1, such as the openib BTL).
This way, ompi_info doesn't confusingly report mpi_leave_pinned==0 for
mpi_leave_pinned, but we end up running with mpi_leave_pinned==1.

* Use synonym/deprecated MCA param API for some mca base params
* In openib BTL, if we have appropriate memory hooks support, and if
mpi_leave_pinned and mpi_leave_pinned_pipeline were not set by the
user, set mpi_leave_pinned to 1.
* Defer checking mpi_leave_pinned_* until as late as possible (i.e.,
until after the btl's have had a chance to set mpi_leave_pinned to
1):

a standalone library named libopenmpi-malloc. Users wanting to
use leave_pinned with ptmalloc2 will now need to link the library
into their application explicitly. All other users will use the
libc-provided allocator instead of Open MPI's ptmalloc2. This change
may be overriden with the configure option enable-ptmalloc2-internal
- The leave_pinned options will now default to using mallopt on
Linux in the cases where ptmalloc2 was not linked in. mallopt
will also only be available if munmap can be intercepted (the
default whenever Open MPI is not compiled with --without-memory-
manager.
- Open MPI will now complain and refuse to use leave_pinned if
no memory intercept / mallopt option is available.

After much work by Jeff and myself, and quite a lot of discussion, it has become clear that we simply cannot resolve the infinite loops caused by RML-involved subsystems calling orte_output. The original rationale for the change to orte_output has also been reduced by shifting the output of XML-formatted vs human readable messages to an alternative approach.
I have globally replaced the orte_output/ORTE_OUTPUT calls in the code base, as well as the corresponding .h file name. I have test compiled and run this on the various environments within my reach, so hopefully this will prove minimally disruptive.

such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly

= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

mpi_show_mpi_alloc_mem_leaks
When activated, MPI_FINALIZE displays a list of memory allocations
from MPI_ALLOC_MEM that were not freed by MPI_FREE_MEM (in each MPI
process).
* If set to a positive integer, display only that many leaks.
* If set to a negative integer, display all leaks.
* If set to 0, do not show any leaks.

some time ago (last summer) that included checking for M_TRIM_THRESHOLD and
M_MMAP_MAX, unfortunately we didn't include <malloc.h> which is where these
are define, so disabling sbrk for the registration cache has been busted for
some time.

needlessly registered in multiple different places, and none of them
had a good help string. There was also an inconsistent check for
setting both mpi_leave_pinned and mpi_leave_pinned_pipeline (i.e., it
was only in ob1). This commit moves the registration of these params
to one central place (ompi/runtime/ompi_mpi_params.c, with all other
mpi_* MCA params) and uses globals to propagate the values as
relevant. The error check was also moved to the central location to
ensure that we can consistency everywhere.

all platforms. The only exceptions (and I will not deal with them
anytime soon) are on Windows:
- the write functions which require the length to be an int when it's
a size_t on all UNIX variants.
- all iovec manipulation functions where the iov_len is again an int
when it's a size_t on most of the UNIXes.
As these only happens on Windows, so I think we're set for now :)

allocation. This is necessary to detect if the user requests a specific
mpool for the allocationi. Searching the key values for a specific mpool
name does not work for the case that the user provides an info object
without mpool specific information (see Ticket #254).
- In the case that the user provides a info object without requesting a
specific mpool we use malloc to allocate buffer instead of returning
NULL (fix for Ticket #254 )

where to look for registrations that were used in the alloc/free code don't
work (because the memory returned from malloc() -- whowever gets around to
calling it) might actually be registered already. So just call malloc
and free directly and avoid the whole issue when leave pinned is on. After
all, you have to pay the registration cost sometime, and if leave pinned
is on, you only have to pay it once. It makes things much simpler to
have that once be at first use rather than during ALLOC_MEM, and as far
as I can read, we're still standards conformant this way.

1) don't need tree if memory is just malloc'd
2) fix memory and free list leak..
3) deregister first and then free... doh..
This commit was SVN r10251.
Added a tree to track memory allocation from MPI_Alloc_mem, this allows us to
free the registrations in a sane fashion.. also should be faster..
This commit was SVN r10248.
2. fix for MPI_Free_mem, was calling deregister but never called mpool_free.. so
we leaked memory. Still an open issue here though, if the memory is alloc'd
and the mpool doesn't create and cache a registration, we will never find the
mpool to free with.

Previous rev. maintained state on the communicator used for acking duplicate
fragments, but the communicator may be destroyed prior to successfull
delivery of an ack to the peer. We must therefore maintain this state
globally on a per peer, not a per peer, per communicator basis.
This requires that we use a global rank on the wire and translate this as
appropriate to a local rank within the communicator.

to let the PML (or io, more generally the low level request manager)
to have it's own release function (what was before the req_fini). This
function will only be called from the low level while the req_free will
be called from the upper level (MPI layer) in order to mark the request
as not used by the user anymore.
From the request point of view the requests will be marked as inactive
everytime we read their status (true for persistent as well). As
MPI_REQUEST_NULL is already marked as inactive, the test and wait functions
are simpler. The drawback is that now we have to change in the
ompi_request_{test|wait} the req_status of the request once we get it's
status.
