This commit decouples OMPI deployment from the version(s) of the lower
layers of the stack by probing for UDP support.
Verbs applications assume a 40-byte header (there is no current
mechanism for querying payload offset). So to support a 42-byte UDP
header without causing existing applications like ibv_ud_pingpong or
older versions of OMPI to crash, we must inform libusnic_verbs that we
are aware of the nonstandard payload offset. We do this by overriding
the `transport_type` field of the device to be 42 before calling
`ibv_open_device`. If the library resets it to something else, then we
know the lower layers are UDP capable. Otherwise we use the older
custom-L2 format.
This necessitated some minor ugliness in common_verbs, but it's as tidy
as Jeff and I know how to make it right now.
This commit only adds support for UDP headers and connectivity over the
same L2 network, it does not touch routing or interface pairing.

We're going to be bringing a bunch of usnic code to the SVN trunk
soon, and I basically brought this commit over out of order. So I'm
reverting it for now; the same functionality will come back shortly.
This commit was SVN r30805.
The following SVN revision numbers were found above:
r30804 --> open-mpi/ompi@5bedcc15bf
These constants are now upstream (see
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/libs/infiniband/libibverbs.git/commit/?id=f57a9c67eabb9e7f19c624ac3c8c27b7be55796c),
so let's support them properly in Open MPI.
Added bonus: consolidating these checks up in
ompi_check_openfabrics.m4 allowed removing some custom checks and
AC_DEFINE's from the usnic configure.m4 script.
Also change the usnic/configure.m4 check for IBV_EVENT_GID_CHANGE to
use AC_CHECK_DECLS (vs. AC_CHECK_DECL).

This commit was SVN r30804.
* Add OMPI_COMMON_VERBS_FLAGS_NOT_RC, which looks for a device that
does ''not'' support RC
* Add ompi_common_verbs_find_max_inline(), and remove that code from
the openib BTL component
This commit was SVN r27393.
* Moved "check basics" sanity check from openib BTL to common/verbs
(which also allows us to have openib ''not'' include
<infiniband/driver.h>, which is a Very Good Thing)
* Add new ompi_common_verbs_qp_test() function, which tests to see
whether a device supports RC and/or UD QPs. The openib BTL now
uses this function to ensure that the device supports RC QPs.
* Rename ompi_common_verbs_find_ibv_ports() to be
ompi_common_verbs_find_ports() -- the "ibv" was redundant.
* Re-work ompi_common_verbs_find_ports() to use
ompi_common_verbs_qp_test() instead of testing for RC/UD QPs itself
* Add bunches of opal_output_verbose() to the find_ports() routine
(to help diagnosing connectivity problems -- imaging running with
--mca btl_base_verbose 10; you'll see all the find_ports() test
results)
* Make ompi_common_verbs_qp_test() warn if devices/ports are supplied
in the if_include/if_exclude strings that do not exists (quite
similar to what the openib BTL does today).
* Add ompi_common_verbs_mca_register() function, which registers
common verbs MCA params. It will also register MCA param synonyms
for thse MCA params to upper-level components (e.g.,
btl_<upper-level-component>_<the-mca-param>).
* common_verbs_warn_nonexistent_if: warn if
if_include/if_exclude-specified devices or ports do not exist.
This commit was SVN r27332.
some new common OpenFabrics functionality to ompi/mca/common/verbs.
Also move everything that was in ompi/mca/common/ofautils under
ompi/mca/common/verbs.
* Move ofautils -> verbs
* Add new functionality in ompi/mca/common/verbs (see doxygen
* comments in ompi/mca/common/verbs/common_verbs.h for details):
* ompi_common_verbs_find_ibv_ports()
* ompi_common_verbs_port_bw()
* ompi_common_verbs_mtu()
* '''If you're writing verbs-based code, you should be using this
common functionality'''
* Adapt openib BTL to use some trivial common functionality in
common/verbs
* Don't use "#ifdef OMPI_HAVE_RDMAOE",use
"#if defined(HAVE_IBV_LINK_LAYER_ETHERNET)"
* Update the following to include/link against common/verbs
* bcol/iboffload
* sbgp/ibnet
* btl/openib
