during the IPv6 patch. The most important is the multi BTL support. There
was a quite interesting bug. Instead of setting up the multiple connections
over different physical devices, based on the time when these connections
were created most of the time they were all using the same physical network.
Which, of course, was not the intended goal, as we top at the maximum
bandwidth available over one device instead of gathering all available
bandwidth from all devices.
Second, the IPv6 RFC suggest to use sockaddr_storage as a holder for the
IP information, but use a sockaddr* when we pass it to functions. This is
only partially corrected by this patch.
Some other minor cleanups.

This "feature" is disabled by default and it should not affect the current performance.
In case when the message size is large and segment size is smaller than eager size for particular interface,
the leaf nodes in generalized reduce function can overflood parent nodes by sending all segments without
any synchronization. This can cause the parent to have HIGH number of unexpected messages (think 16MB
message with 1KB segments for example). In case of binomial algorithm root node always has at least one
child which is leaf, so this can potentially affect the root's performance significantly [Especially in
large communicators where root may have quite a few children (binomial tree for example)].
When the segment size is bigger than the eager size, rendezvous protocol ensures that this does
not happen so it is not necessary.
Originally, the problem was exposed in "infinite" bucket allocator clean up time for "small" segment sizes
(which may explain some "deadlocks" on Thunderbird tests).
To prevent this, we allow user to specify mca parameter "--mca coll_tuned_reduce_algorithm_max_requests NUM"
this limits number of outstanding messages from a leaf node in generalized reduce to the parent to NUM.
Messages are sent as non-blocking synchrnous messages, so syncronization happens at "wait" time.
The synchronization actually improved performance of pipeline and binomial algorithm for large message sizes
with 1KB segments over MX, but I need to test it some more to make sure it is consistent.
Since there is no easy way to find out what is "the eager" size for particular btl, I set the limit to 4000B.
If message/individual segment size is greater than 4000B - we will not use this feature. This variable may
or may not be exposed as mca parameter later...
I did not have any problems running it and both "default" and "synchronous" tests passed Intel Reduce* tests
up to 80 processes (over MX).

- make opal_sockaddr2str() take a sockaddr_storage instead of a sockaddr_in6
so that it works for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, and remove a whole bunch
of #ifs in the OOOB code.
- Fix a compiler warning in the TCP BTL due to run-time determined
array size by making it a dynamicly allocated array.
- Fix the unpacking code of IPv4 addresses when using IPv6 support, so
that the address is in the correct location (instead of in an IPv6
structure, use an IPv4 structure). Refs trac:1005.

Make sure that the wrapper selection is compiled out if not enabling FT. Before the
logic would skip over it since the conditional if statements would not be satisfied,
now there are no additional if statements when compiled out.
With this modification the selection logic looks nearly identical to pre-r14051
with the exception of the non-FT related improvements.

There is a binomial algorithm in the code (i.e., the HNP would send to a subset of the orteds, which then relay it on according to the typical log-2 algo), but that has a bug in it so the code won't let you select it even if you tried (and the mca param doesn't show, so you'd *really* have to try).
This also involved a slight change to the oob.xcast API, so propagated that as required.
Note: this has *only* been tested on rsh, SLURM, and Bproc environments (now that it has been transferred to the OMPI trunk, I'll need to re-test it [only done rsh so far]). It should work fine on any environment that uses the ORTE daemons - anywhere else, you are on your own... :-)
Also, correct a mistake where the orte_debug_flag was declared an int, but the mca param was set as a bool. Move the storage for that flag to the orte/runtime/params.c and orte/runtime/params.h files appropriately.

It's a bit longer, but much more clear in it's implementation I believe.
Fundamentally it is the same, but is much more solid in the implementation.
I created quite a few directed tests that this version of the implementation
now passes.

finally brings in functionality that is already on the 1.2 branch, and
was developed and tested in the v1.2ofed branch (and other places).
Short version of new features:
* Support for ibv_fork_init()
* Automatically fill in the openib BTL bandwidth value by
querying the HCA port
* Installdirs functionality
* Fixes to always use -I in the Fortran wrapper compilers (#924)
* Gleb's mpool updates
* Remove some kruft in btl/openib/configure.m4, therefore
fixing the harmless warnings noted in #665
* Bunches of updates to the Linux RPM spec file
I.e., effectively the same thing that r14411 brought to the v1.2
branch.
Also effectively brought in r14432 and r14433 (some fixes on top of
the original r14411 commit to v1.2). Still need to bring in the moral
equivalent of r14445 after this commit (fixes to installdirs).

to move it into the unexpected queue. Instead pack the data in
only one buffer. Now the code look more optimized and clear, but
I have a doubt about who's using this functionality. I think that
all BTLs always return only one memory segment attached to the
matching fragment (i.e. there is no unexpected iov type receive).

function to make it more scalable. The memory fragmentation is still high, but
at least in most of the cases (where all ressources are correctly released
before the cleanup) the code is now highly efficient. Before the code execute
in (N * (N-1))!, which take a while when the number of allocated ressources
increase (which is the case when a lot of unexpected messages are created).
The fix consist of checking if all items are freed and if it's the case
then do not recreate the free items list (as we know that everything will
be released). If this condition is not true, we fall back on the
original execution path (which is still sub-sub-sub ... optimal).

same "restrict" check as the top-level OMPI configure.ac script so
that it will guarantee to always get the same result. Therefore, the
#define for restrict will always have the same value in both
opal_config.h and romioconf.h, and we get 7 less warnings (6 in the IO
ROMIO component, 1 in ROMIO itself) when compiling with icc on Linux
(because PAC_C_RESTRICT and AC_C_RESTRICT would get different values
for the "restrict" #define in this case).

Fix for memory corruption in the restarted process stack. This stemed from
the brute force method we were previously using. This commit fixes this by
using a lighter weight solution focused in the r2 BML instead of above the PML.
This is a more efficient and flexible solution, and it solves the original
problem.
In the process I pulled out the ft_event function in the tcp BTL and r2 BML
into a set of *_ft.[c|h] files just to keep any updates to these code paths
as isolated as possible to make merging easier on everyone.

Per discussions with Brian and Ralph, make a slight correction in
where components are installed. Use $pkglibdir, not $libdir/openmpi,
so that when compiled in the orte trunk, components are installed to
the right directory (because the component search patch is checking
$pkglibdir).

the real interest is for small to middle size unexpected messages. The unexpected messages are copied
by the PML in it's own unexpected buffers. Therefore, there is no reason to make a first copy in the
TCP BTL. The BTL can handle to the PML it's own buffer, and can be sure that once the callback
completed it can reuse the buffer, no matter what happened with the fragment.

time difference...
1) The PML makes an assumption on local/remote completion semantics of the BTL
which Self BTL does not obey, nor should it, so we fix the PML
2) The Get protocol must handle the case when sender and reciever do not agree
on wheter the data is contiguous

The top-level OMPI configure script already checks for "restrict" and
will issue a #define for it. PAC_C_RESTRICT would also check for
restrict, but sometimes come up with a different answer than the
top-level OMPI configure script, thereby resulting in conflicting
#define's for "restrict" (e.g., icc 9.0/9.1 on linux x86-64).
So it's easiest just to remove this test from ROMIO's configure.in
script.
