In the OPAL_ENABLE_FT_CR code path there used to be a variable
'mca_base_component_distill_checkpoint_ready' which got removed.
The FT code was not compiling and while trying to get it to compile
again the old variable was #ifdef'd out. This re-introduces the
variable with a new name 'opal_base_distill_checkpoint_ready'
and enables the code previously #ifdef'd out.
This removes the last hack introduced to get the FT code to compile
again.
This commit was SVN r30928.
The original code was passing a union by value, and doing odd things
on Solaris/SPARC (where "odd" rhymes with "SIGBUS"). Replace it with
an exploded switch/case block for all the enum values. Also use the
string literals so that we get compiler checking of the format string
vs. the type of the actual arguments.

pkg{data,lib,includedir}, use our own ompi{data,lib,includedir}, which is
always set to {datadir,libdir,includedir}/openmpi. This will keep us from
having help files in prefix/share/open-rte when building without Open MPI,
but in prefix/share/openmpi when building with Open MPI.

- Use ->boolval for booleans when creating a string.
- Solaris has some issue with the ?: used in one of find functions. Use an if instead.
- Change all instances of index -> vari to avoid issues with redefining index.

includes various fixes all over the C/R code which are
hard to group like the other patches.
Changes from V1:
* explain why mca_base_component_distill_checkpoint_ready no longer works
* compare return result of opal functions with OPAL_* values
Changes from V2:
* use orte_rml_oob_ft_event() instead of referencing through the modules
* properly protect variable (thanks to --enable-picky)

- Make a copy of enumerator data for default enumerators. This will allow
the caller to free their data once the enumerator has been created. This
is a change from just referencing the values array.
- Make mca_base_pvar_notify check if the pvar is valid before calling the
notify callback. This fixes a segmentation fault when destroying handles
after MPI_Finalize().

the output of ompi_info.
A variable is disabled if its component will never be selected due to
a component selection parameter (eg. -mca btl self). The old behavior
of ompi_info was to not print these parameters at all. Now we print the
parameters. After some discussion with George it was decided that there
needed to be some way to see what parameters will not be used. This was
the comprimise.
This commit also fixes a bug and a typo in the pvar sytem. The enum_count
value in mca_base_pvar_dump was being used without being set. The full_name
in mca_base_pvar_t was not being used.

This commit adds an API for registering and querying performance
variables (mca_base_pvar) in the MCA base. The existing MCA variable
system API has been updated to reflect the new API: MCA variable
groups have performance variables, and new types have been added (double,
unsigned long long) to reflect what is required by the MPI_T
interface. Additionally, the MCA variable group code has been split
into its own set of files: mca_base_var_group.[ch].
Details of the new API can be found in doxygen comments in the header:
mca_base_pvar.h.
Other changes to the variable system:
- Use an opal_hash_table to speed up variable/group lookup.
- Clean up code associated with MCA variable types.
- Registered performance variables are printed by ompi_info -a. In the
future an option should be added to control this behavior.
Changes to OMPI:
- Added full support for the MPI_T performance variable interface.
This commit was SVN r28800.
Add an option to ompi_info (-l, --level) that takes a number in the
interval (1,9). Only MCA variables up to this level will be printed.
The default level is 1.
Print the level as part of both the parsable and readable output.
This commit was SVN r28750.
Other changes:
- Added a flag to the MCA variable system to indicate a variable should go away
when its group does. Both mca_base_framework_var_register() and
mca_base_component_var_register() set this flag.
Notes:
- mca_base_components_open is deprecated. It will be removed in a future commit.
- All frameworks should use MCA_BASE_FRAMEWORK_DECLARE to declare their
framework structure.
- All calls to framework open/close functions should be changed to use the
mca_base_framework_* functions.
- Instead of special-casing installdirs a flag was added to prevent calling
into the variable system when opening a framework.
- Ralph: Clarify the functional definition of the "register" function in the
MCA framework object - it had the same name as another function that does a
totally different thing.
- As per discussion with Ralph the behavior of mca_base_framework_register()
is to always call mca_base_framework_components_register() if the framework's
register function was successful. This removed the need for frameworks to
have to call this function directly.
This commit was SVN r28237.
Features:
- Support for an override parameter file (openmpi-mca-param-override.conf).
Variable values in this file can not be overridden by any file or environment
value.
- Support for boolean, unsigned, and unsigned long long variables.
- Support for true/false values.
- Support for enumerations on integer variables.
- Support for MPIT scope, verbosity, and binding.
- Support for command line source.
- Support for setting variable source via the environment using
OMPI_MCA_SOURCE_<var name>=source (either command or file:filename)
- Cleaner API.
- Support for variable groups (equivalent to MPIT categories).
Notes:
- Variables must be created with a backing store (char **, int *, or bool *)
that must live at least as long as the variable.
- Creating a variable with the MCA_BASE_VAR_FLAG_SETTABLE enables the use of
mca_base_var_set_value() to change the value.
- String values are duplicated when the variable is registered. It is up to
the caller to free the original value if necessary. The new value will be
freed by the mca_base_var system and must not be freed by the user.
- Variables with constant scope may not be settable.
- Variable groups (and all associated variables) are deregistered when the
component is closed or the component repository item is freed. This
prevents a segmentation fault from accessing a variable after its component
is unloaded.
- After some discussion we decided we should remove the automatic registration
of component priority variables. Few component actually made use of this
feature.
- The enumerator interface was updated to be general enough to handle
future uses of the interface.
- The code to generate ompi_info output has been moved into the MCA variable
system. See mca_base_var_dump().

This commit also modifies the rmaps framework. The following variables were
moved from ppr and lama: rmaps_base_pernode, rmaps_base_n_pernode,
rmaps_base_n_persocket. Both lama and ppr create synonyms for these variables.
This commit was SVN r28236.
The old behavior of mca_base_param_deregister could cause the indices of other mca parameters to change. This could potentially cause problems if a mca user saves and later references an affected index.
This commit was SVN r27633.
Reasoning: The old behavior was a little confusing. mca_base_components_open does not open an output stream so it is a little unexpected that mca_base_components_close does. To add to this several frameworks (that don't use mca_base_components_close) failed to close their output in the framework close function and others closed their output a second time. This change is an improvement to the symantics of mca_base_components_open/close as they are now symetric in their functionality.

pml/v:
- If vprotocol is not being used vprotocol_include_list is leaked. Assume vprotocol never takes ownership (see below) and always free the string.
coll/ml:
- (patch verified) calling mca_base_param_lookup_string after mca_base_param_reg_string is unnecessary. The call to mca_base_param_lookup_string causes the value returned by mca_base_param_reg_string to be leaked.
- Need to free mca_coll_ml_component.config_file_name on component close.
btl/openib:
- calling mca_base_param_lookup_string after mca_base_param_reg_string is unnecessary. The call to mca_base_param_lookup_string causes the value returned by mca_base_param_reg_string to be leaked.
vprotocol/base:
- There was no way for pml/v to determine if vprotocol took ownership of vprotocol_include_list. Fix by always never ownership (use strdup).
mca/base:
- param_lookup will result in storage->stringval to be a newly allocated string if the mca parameter has a string value. ensure this string is always freed.
