id based on the last half of the mapper MAC. This allow us to figure out how
to connect peers. This allow the MX BTL to be used in a cluster of cluster
configuration where each cluster have MX internally as well as on a multi
rail MX system.

This is required to tighten up the BTL semantics. Ordering is not guaranteed,
but, if the BTL returns a order tag in a descriptor (other than
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER) then we may request another descriptor that will obey
ordering w.r.t. to the other descriptor.
This will allow sane behavior for RDMA networks, where local completion of an
RDMA operation on the active side does not imply remote completion on the
passive side. If we send a FIN message after local completion and the FIN is
not ordered w.r.t. the RDMA operation then badness may occur as the passive
side may now try to deregister the memory and the RDMA operation may still be
pending on the passive side.
Note that this has no impact on networks that don't suffer from this
limitation as the ORDER tag can simply always be specified as
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER.

We eagerly send data up to btl_*_eager_limit with the match
Upon ACK of the MATCH we start using send/receives of size
btl_*_max_send_size up to the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset
After the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset we begin using RDMA writes of
size btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size.
Now, on a per message basis we only use the above protocol if the
message is larger than btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size
btl_*_eager_limit - > same
btl_*_max_send_size -> same
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset -> btl_*_min_rdma_size
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size -> btl_*_max_rdma_size
btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size is new..
This patch also moves all BTL common parameters initialisation into
btl_base_mca.c file.

computation of the current location on the pack/unpack process. This can
be used both for retrieving the pointer to the first byte (in the special
case of the cached RDMA protocol) and for getting the current
position (for the pipelined protocol).
I modified all BTLs, but most of them are still untested.

This merge adds Checkpoint/Restart support to Open MPI. The initial
frameworks and components support a LAM/MPI-like implementation.
This commit follows the risk assessment presented to the Open MPI core
development group on Feb. 22, 2007.

* Make sure that the pval always writes to the correct portion of the
lval. This only matters on 32 bit big endian machines.
* On 32 bit machines when assigning to pval, the other 4 bytes of lval
weren't being written, which could lead to bogus data
We use macros so that there aren't casts all over the code and the pval
assignment can occur to the correct 4 bytes. Refs trac:587

protocol over the MX BTL. Now, we have only one matching, the one in Open
MPI.
The problem is that when the unexpected handler is triggered, not all the
message is on the host memory. In the best case we get one MX fragment (internal
MX fragment), in the worst we get NULL. The only way to fit this with the
design of the PML is to force the eager protocol at the MX internal fragment
size, and to limit the send/receive protocol at the same size. Tests show
the outcome is not far from optimal (if the pipeline depth is increased
a little bit).
Set MX_PIPELINE_LOG in order to allow MX to use internal fragments of 4K.

performance on a 2G Myrinet card, as it look like pipelining the messages
by 1M is faster than a simple send/receive. However, when using a 10G card
the send/receive will limit the maximum bandwidth to 2.5Gbs. The reason is
the scarce bus resources that have to be shared between the Myrinet hardware
and the memcpy operation. The PUT protocol remove the memcpy, we now have a
true zero-copy mechanism. But, there is no pipelining yet as it look like the
RDMA pipeline somehow disappeared from the OB1 PML ...

allocation logic is completely done outside the data-type engine (in the PML) there is
no need for any special case inside the data-type engine. There is less arguments for
the ompi_convertor_pack and ompi_convertor_unpack as well (the last field free_after is
not required anymore as there is no memory allocated in the engine itself). This change
affect all components using datatypes. I test most of them, but it might happens that I
miss some ... If it's the case please let me know (don't shoot the pianist!!).

increase the previous connection code was broken. It can take as much as 60 seconds to connect
64 processes. Now we do not create the connections when we add the procs but only when we send
them the first message. Now it take only 1.6 seconds to setup a 64 procs MPI job over MX (doing a 2 steps barrier in order to insure that we create all the connections).

is labeled as internal so the users will not see it but it is not read-only so we can still
play with it (that's for our internal tests). This is supposed to dissapear later after the
next (or next next) release of the MX library, but we need it now as a quick fix before the
release.

- first we setup the connections in the begining with all the peers
- MX does not handle well the case where several peers make connections to the same
destination simultaneously.
So I change the order in which we connect. First we compute our rank in the array,
then in a round-robin fashion we setup connection starting with our left neighboard.

different procs load different sets of components, but it's a start
