modules, if its priority is zero (the default value). Reason for that is
+ if there is no other module with a priority > 0, the hierarchical
collective module has a problem anyway, since it has to rely on the coll
modules of the subcommunicators. On the other hand, if its priority is
zero, it won't be chosen anyway, and we can simply save the
allreduce/allgather and comm_split operations which might occur during
hierarchy detection.
+ to improve the startup times until we have the modex thing which we
discussed with Jeff and Tim in Knoxville in place
- adding an mca parameter indicating a symmetric configuration. This can
speed up startup times, since each process can conclude from its data onto
the data of the other processes -> no need for the allreduce operations. Per
default this parameter is set to "no".

stage fairly confident that
- it works in most scenarious (with symmetric hierarchies, with asymmetric
hierarchies, wihout hierarchies - it just removes itself)
- it does not create too many problems (I am not aware of any at least)
- it does not slow down startup anymore dramatically (thanks to the fixes of
Brian, Jeff, Tim and a significant reduction in the number of collective
operations in the comm_query)
Any feedback is highly welcome.

started to add static (fixed if) statement based decision rules based on gigE numbers
added mca params so that a user can force a certain algorithm/segment/topo on a per collective basis
(this is not in the fixed call path but only in the dynamic (at com create) call path).
(these params can be used by test suites such as OCC to choice which algorithm they are using).

number of collective operations and simplifies the logic significantly.
- introducing a special case if size of comm == 1, avoiding thus collective
operations as well ( i.e. no need for hierarchies)
- fix for an unsymmetric case. Still to be tested.

originally suggested by Ralf Wildenhues, to try to speed autogen, configure,
and make (and possibly even make install). Use automake's include directive
to drastically reduce the number of Makefile files (although the number of
Makefile.am files is the same - most are just included in a top-level
Makefile.am). Also use an Automake SUBDIRs feature to eliminate the
dynamic-mca tree, which was no longer really needed. This makes adding
a framework easier (since you don't have to remember the dynamic-mca
tree) and makes building faster (as make doesn't have to recurse through
the dynamic-mca tree)

First cut on barrier (which from my perspective does not make sense from the
performance point of view) and on allreduce (which might make sense),

done. This version also doesn't break ompi (at least if its not chosen :-) ).
New features compared to the version from last Thursday (where bcast and
reduce seemed to work in most scenarios):
- clearer internal infrastructure
- ability to handle all root processes with a (hopefully) minimal number of
local leader communicators.

(actually a work around for an optimisation in the reduce for not saving ops on the first recv of each segment)
Minor change in topo.
This commit was SVN r7758.
- update the hierarch stuff to use btl's instead of ptl's
- start the new logic regarding how to handle local leader communicators

reduce_inorder() function -- we don't use the tree at all.
- Add more relevant "volatile"'s for the control buffers in the
fragment mpool (and associated casts where necessary)
This commit was SVN r7616.
- Move the "process 0" logic out of the main loop in reduce to make
the code a bit less complex (at the price of slight code
duplication, but it iss now significantly easier to read)
- Fix problem with uniquenes guarantee in the bootstrap mpool -- using
the CID alone was not sufficient enough to guarantee uniquenes; now
use (CID, rank 0 process name) tuple to check for uniqueness
- Made a few debugging help changes in coll_sm.h; especially helps
debugging on uniprocessors

- Move one base global to the basic component and make it an MCA
parameter
- Convert the basic component to use the new MCA param API
