Since we now support the dynamic addition of hosts to the orte_node_pool, there is no longer any reason to require advanced specification of all possible nodes. Instead, use a precedence method to initially allocate only those hosts that were specified in the cmd line:
* rankfile, if given, as that will specify the nodes
* -host, aggregated across all app_contexts
* -hostfile, aggregated across all app_contexts
* default hostfile
* assign local node
Fix slots_inuse accounting so that the nodes are correctly reset upon error termination - e.g., when oversubscribed without permission.
Ensure we accurately track the user's specified desires for oversubscribe and no-use-local when dynamically spawning jobs.

(cherry picked from commit c9b3e68ce596a68a2ed2fbf73f211b3334b0a6a8)
The current error message when the number of slots is insufficient
(e.g. running mpirun -n 4 on a dual core machine) does not mention the
use of `--oversubscribe`.
In earlier version of Open MPI, the over-subscription was automatic
(albeit buggy?); but the important point was no error message was
printed and the application runs. Mentioning the oversubscibe flag in
the message will ease up the transition to the current behaviour where
explicit request is required.
Also make a few other minor tweaks / cleanups to the
orte-rmaps-seq:alloc-error help message.

* Resolves#3705
* Components should link against the project level library to better
support `dlopen` with `RTLD_LOCAL`.
* Extend the `mca_FRAMEWORK_COMPONENT_la_LIBADD` in the `Makefile.am`
with the appropriate project level library:
```
MCA components in ompi/
$(top_builddir)/ompi/lib@OMPI_LIBMPI_NAME@.la
MCA components in orte/
$(top_builddir)/orte/lib@ORTE_LIB_PREFIX@open-rte.la
MCA components in opal/
$(top_builddir)/opal/lib@OPAL_LIB_PREFIX@open-pal.la
MCA components in oshmem/
$(top_builddir)/oshmem/liboshmem.la"
```
Note: The changes in this commit were automated by the script in
the commit that proceeds it with the `libadd_mca_comp_update.py`
script. Some components were not included in this change because
they are statically built only.

Start updating the various mappers to the new procedure. Remove the stale lama component as it is now very out-of-date. Bring round_robin and PPR online, and modify the mindist component (but cannot test/debug it).
Remove unneeded test
Fix memory corruption by re-initializing variable to NULL in loop
Resolve the race condition identified by @ggouaillardet by resetting the
mapped flag within the same event where it was set. There is no need to
retain the flag beyond that point as it isn't used again.
Add a new job attribute ORTE_JOB_FULLY_DESCRIBED to indicate that all the job information (including locations and binding) is included in the launch message. Thus, the backend daemons do not need to do any map computation for the job. Use this for the seq, rankfile, and mindist mappers until someone decides to update them.
Note that this will maintain functionality, but means that users of those three mappers will see large launch messages and less performant scaling than those using the other mappers.
Have the mindist module add procs to the job's proc array as it is a fully described module

Per a prior commit, the presence of "hwloc.h" can cause ambiguity when
using --with-hwloc=external (i.e., whether to include
opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc.h or whether to include the system-installed
hwloc.h).
This commit:
1. Renames opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc.h to hwloc-internal.h.
2. Adds opal/mca/hwloc/autogen.options to tell autogen.pl to expect to
find hwloc-internal.h (instead of hwloc.h) in opal/mca/hwloc.
3. s@opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc.h@opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc-internal.h@g in the
rest of the code base.

* Expand the use of the `orte_keep_fqdn_hostnames` MCA parameter when
it is set to false.
* If that parameter is set to false (default) then short hostnames
(e.g., `node01`) will match with the long hostnames (e.g.,
`node01.mycluster.org`). This allows a user (or resource manager)
to mix the use of short and long hostnames.
- Note that this mechanism does _not_ perform a DNS lookup, but
instead strips off the FQDN by truncating the hostname string at
the first `.` character (when not an IP address).
- By default (`false`) the following is true:
`node01 == node01.mycluster.org == node01.bogus.com`
since we use `node01` as the hostname.
This commit does two things. It removes checks for C99 required

This commit adds an owner file in each of the component directories
for each framework. This allows for a simple script to parse
the contents of the files and generate, among other things, tables
to be used on the project's wiki page. Currently there are two
"fields" in the file, an owner and a status. A tool to parse
the files and generate tables for the wiki page will be added
in a subsequent commit.

Revamp the ORTE global data structures to reduce memory footprint and add new features. Add ability to control/set cpu frequency, though this can only be done if the sys admin has setup the system to support it (or you run as root).
This commit was SVN r31916.
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.
This commit was SVN r30140.
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.

Brian dealt with this in the past by creating platform files and using "no-build" to block the components. This was clunky, but acceptable when only one organization was using that option. However, that number has now expanded to at least two more locations.
Accordingly, make --without-rte-support actually work by adding appropriate configury to prevent components from building when they shouldn't. While doing so, remove two frameworks (db and rmcast) that are no longer used as ORCM comes to a close (besides, they belonged in ORCM now anyway). Do some minor cleanups along the way.

The wiki page is incomplete at the moment, but I hope to complete it over the next few days. I will provide updates on the devel list. As the wiki page states, the default and most commonly used options remain unchanged (except as noted below). New, esoteric and complex options have been added, but unless you are a true masochist, you are unlikely to use many of them beyond perhaps an initial curiosity-motivated experimentation.
In a nutshell, this commit revamps the map/rank/bind procedure to take into account topology info on the compute nodes. I have, for the most part, preserved the default behaviors, with three notable exceptions:
1. I have at long last bowed my head in submission to the system admin's of managed clusters. For years, they have complained about our default of allowing users to oversubscribe nodes - i.e., to run more processes on a node than allocated slots. Accordingly, I have modified the default behavior: if you are running off of hostfile/dash-host allocated nodes, then the default is to allow oversubscription. If you are running off of RM-allocated nodes, then the default is to NOT allow oversubscription. Flags to override these behaviors are provided, so this only affects the default behavior.
2. both cpus/rank and stride have been removed. The latter was demanded by those who didn't understand the purpose behind it - and I agreed as the users who requested it are no longer using it. The former was removed temporarily pending implementation.
3. vm launch is now the sole method for starting OMPI. It was just too darned hard to maintain multiple launch procedures - maybe someday, provided someone can demonstrate a reason to do so.
As Jeff stated, it is impossible to fully test a change of this size. I have tested it on Linux and Mac, covering all the default and simple options, singletons, and comm_spawn. That said, I'm sure others will find problems, so I'll be watching MTT results until this stabilizes.

This commit was SVN r25093.
1. removing the enum of mapper values
2. change the req_mapper and last_mapper fields to char* so they can hold the component name instead of a mapper flag
3. revise the selection logic in the mapper components to reflect the change. Components now look for their name in the req_mapper field, or to see if other criteria (e.g., npernode) are set that mandate their doing the mapping
Several MCA params resided in the rmaps base for historical reasons - they have been in the base since at least the original 1.2 release (and perhaps earlier). However, George correctly pointed out that they really should reside in their respective components. Accordingly, move them to the components, but register synonyms to the old names to avoid breaking backward compatibility.
These revisions retain the current functionality of allowing comm_spawn'd jobs to use different mappers than the original job, and for the errmgr to utilize the resilient mapper to recover processes regardless of how they were originally mapped.
Given the large number of possible combinations, I am sure that someone will find a corner-case combination of values and selection criteria that cause either no mapper to be selected, or one other than the intended to be used. No one can test all the ways people will use this system, so I expect debugging to continue for awhile.
The ability of comm_spawn'd jobs to exploit this functionality relies on changes to the orte_dpm component - this will be committed separately.
This commit was SVN r24520.
When called, each mapper checks to see if it can map the job. If npernode is provided, for example, then the loadbalance mapper accepts the assignment and performs the operation - all mappers before it will "pass" as they can't map npernode requests.
Also remove the stale and never completed topo mapper.
