* mpi/start: fix bugs in cm and ob1 start functions
There were several problems with the implementation of start in Open
MPI:
- There are no checks whatsoever on the state of the request(s)
provided to MPI_Start/MPI_Start_all. It is erroneous to provide an
active request to either of these calls. Since we are already
looping over the provided requests there is little overhead in
verifying that the request can be started.
- Both ob1 and cm were always throwing away the request on the
initial call to start and start_all with a particular
request. Subsequent calls would see that the request was
pml_complete and reuse it. This introduced a leak as the initial
request was never freed. Since the only pml request that can
be mpi complete but not pml complete is a buffered send the
code to reallocate the request has been moved. To detect that
a request is indeed mpi complete but not pml complete isend_init
in both cm and ob1 now marks the new request as pml complete.
- If a new request was needed the callbacks on the original request
were not copied over to the new request. This can cause osc/pt2pt
to hang as the incoming message callback is never called.

* osc/pt2pt: add request for gc after starting a new request
Starting a new receive may cause a recursive call into the pt2pt
frag receive function. If this happens and the prior request is
on the garbage collection list it could cause problems. This commit
moves the gc insert until after the new request has been posted.

This commit removes the --with-mpi-thread-multiple option and forces
MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE support. This cleans up an abstration violation
in opal where OMPI_ENABLE_THREAD_MULTIPLE determines whether the
opal_using_threads is meaningful. To reduce the performance hit on
MPI_THREAD_SINGLE programs an OPAL_UNLIKELY is used for the
check on opal_using_threads in OPAL_THREAD_* macros.
This commit does not clean up the arguments to the various functions
that take whether muti-threading support is enabled. That should be
done at a later time.

This commit contains the following changes:
- pml/ob1: use the bml accessor function when requesting a bml
endpoint. this will ensure that bml endpoints are only created when
needed. for example, a bml endpoint is not requested and not
allocated when receiving an eager message from a peer.
- pml/ob1: change the pml_procs array in the ob1 communicator to a
proc pointer array. at the cost of a single level of extra
redirection this will allow us to allocate pml procs on demand.
- pml/ob1: add an accessor function to access the pml proc structure
for a given peer. this function will allocate the proc if it
doesn't already exist.

This commit fixes several bugs in the static request objects used by
ob1 for blocking send/receive operations.
- Fix memory leak when using MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE. Requests were
allocated off the free list but were destructed and NOT returned.
- Fix double-destruct of static objects. There is no reason to
CONSTRUCT/DESTUCT the static object for each send/receive
operation. This adds overhead and no benefit. To keep the code
clean helper functions have been added to finalize ob1 send/receive
requests.
- Remove now unnecessary include of alloca.h.

all blocking (single threaded) requests are allocated from the main
freelist, so they will be accounted for during the message queues

WHAT: Open our low-level communication infrastructure by moving all necessary components (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool) down in OPAL
All the components required for inter-process communications are currently deeply integrated in the OMPI layer. Several groups/institutions have express interest in having a more generic communication infrastructure, without all the OMPI layer dependencies. This communication layer should be made available at a different software level, available to all layers in the Open MPI software stack. As an example, our ORTE layer could replace the current OOB and instead use the BTL directly, gaining access to more reactive network interfaces than TCP. Similarly, external software libraries could take advantage of our highly optimized AM (active message) communication layer for their own purpose. UTK with support from Sandia, developped a version of Open MPI where the entire communication infrastucture has been moved down to OPAL (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool). Most of the moved components have been updated to match the new schema, with few exceptions (mainly BTLs where I have no way of compiling/testing them). Thus, the completion of this RFC is tied to being able to completing this move for all BTLs. For this we need help from the rest of the Open MPI community, especially those supporting some of the BTLs. A non-exhaustive list of BTLs that qualify here is: mx, portals4, scif, udapl, ugni, usnic.

Based on a suggestion from George on #31806, use the pre-computed
sizes rather than duplicating the computation math (which may change
someday in the future).

MPI_Isend.
I filed an RFC for this optimization some time back. It is a
relatively simple optimization. If the data associated with an
MPI_Isend can be put on the wire without allocating an MPI_Request
then do so. In this case we can legally return omp_request_empty
which will correctly indicate that the request is complete and that is
was not cancelled (these are the only requirements on send requests).

r30343 introduced the optimization of putting the OB1 sendreq and
recvreq on the stack for blocking sends and receives. However, the
requests did not contain enough storage for the data that is normally
immediately ''after'' the request (e.g., BTL data).
This commit changes these requests to be pointers and to use alloca()
to get enough total space for the OB1 request and all the associated
data.
The change is smaller than it looks; most of it is just changing from
"foo.bar" to "foo->bar" notation (etc.).
Submitted by Jeff, reviewed by Nathan. But we want George to look at
this (and get a little soak time on the trunk) before moving to v1.8.

The problem was caused by the static request optimization. The buffered send case
is much like the isend case in that the request structure may be needed after
MPI_Bsend completes. Fix this case by calling isend and freeing the resulting
request.

Per RFC. There are two optimizations in this commit:
- Allocate requests for blocking sends and receives on the stack. This
bypasses the request free list and saves two atomics on the critical path.
This change improves the small message ping-pong by 50-200ns on both AMD
and Intel CPUs.
- For small messages try to use the btl sendi function before intializing a
send request. If the sendi fails or the btl does not have a sendi function
silently fallback on the standard send path.

1. The send path get shorter. The BTL is allowed to return > 0 to specify that the
descriptor was pushed to the networks, and that the memory attached to it is
available again for the upper layer. The MCA_BTL_DES_SEND_ALWAYS_CALLBACK flag
can be used by the PML to force the BTL to always trigger the callback.
Unmodified BTL will continue to work as expected, as they will return OMPI_SUCCESS
which force the PML to have exactly the same behavior as before. Some BTLs have
been modified: self, sm, tcp, mx.
2. Add send immediate interface to BTL.
The idea is to have a mechanism of allowing the BTL to take advantage of
send optimizations such as the ability to deliver data "inline". Some
network APIs such as Portals allow data to be sent using a "thin" event
without packing data into a memory descriptor. This interface change
allows the BTL to use such capabilities and allows for other optimizations
in the future. All existing BTLs except for Portals and sm have this interface
set to NULL.

is ensure that there's at least a good chance of threads building
based on non-threaded development (since the variable names will be
checked). There is also code to make sure that a "mutex" is never
"double locked" when using the conditional macro mutex operations.
This is off by default because there are a number of places in both
ORTE and OMPI where this alarm spews mega bytes of errors on a
simple test. So we have some work to do on our path towards
thread support.
Also removed the macro versions of the non-conditional thread locks,
as the only places they were used, the author of the code intended
to use the conditional thread locks. So now you have upper-case
macros for conditional thread locks and lowercase functions for
non-conditional locks. Simple, right? :).

all of the PMLs the PML proc contain only one field i.e. a pointer to the ompi_proc.
This pointer can be accessed using the c_remote_group easily. Therefore, there is no
meaning of keeping the PML procs around. Slim fast commit ...

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.
