1. #pragma ident <ident string> (e.g., Intel and Sun)
1. #ident <ident string> (e.g., GCC)

not):
* libmpi.so

* `--with-ident-string="STRING"` (defaults to the standard Open MPI version
string - e.g., X.Y.Zr######). `%VERSION%` will expand to the Open MPI
version string if it is supplied to this configure option.

This commit was SVN r16389.
The commit has been tested for C/R and Cray operations, and on Odin (SLURM, rsh) and RoadRunner (TM). I tried to update all environments, but obviously could not test them. I know that Windows needs some work, and have highlighted what is know to be needed in the odls process component.
This represents a lot of work by Brian, Tim P, Josh, and myself, with much advice from Jeff and others. For posterity, I have appended a copy of the email describing the work that was done:
As we have repeatedly noted, the modex operation in MPI_Init is the single greatest consumer of time during startup. To-date, we have executed that operation as an ORTE stage gate that held the process until a startup message containing all required modex (and OOB contact info - see #3 below) info could be sent to it. Each process would send its data to the HNP's registry, which assembled and sent the message when all processes had reported in.
In addition, ORTE had taken responsibility for monitoring process status as it progressed through a series of "stage gates". The process reported its status at each gate, and ORTE would then send a "release" message once all procs had reported in.
The incoming changes revamp these procedures in three ways:
1. eliminating the ORTE stage gate system and cleanly delineating responsibility between the OMPI and ORTE layers for MPI init/finalize. The modex stage gate (STG1) has been replaced by a collective operation in the modex itself that performs an allgather on the required modex info. The allgather is implemented using the orte_grpcomm framework since the BTL's are not active at that point. At the moment, the grpcomm framework only has a "basic" component analogous to OMPI's "basic" coll framework - I would recommend that the MPI team create additional, more advanced components to improve performance of this step.
The other stage gates have been replaced by orte_grpcomm barrier functions. We tried to use MPI barriers instead (since the BTL's are active at that point), but - as we discussed on the telecon - these are not currently true barriers so the job would hang when we fell through while messages were still in process. Note that the grpcomm barrier doesn't actually resolve that problem, but Brian has pointed out that we are unlikely to ever see it violated. Again, you might want to spend a little time on an advanced barrier algorithm as the one in "basic" is very simplistic.
Summarizing this change: ORTE no longer tracks process state nor has direct responsibility for synchronizing jobs. This is now done via collective operations within the MPI layer, albeit using ORTE collective communication services. I -strongly- urge the MPI team to implement advanced collective algorithms to improve the performance of this critical procedure.
2. reducing the volume of data exchanged during modex. Data in the modex consisted of the process name, the name of the node where that process is located (expressed as a string), plus a string representation of all contact info. The nodename was required in order for the modex to determine if the process was local or not - in addition, some people like to have it to print pretty error messages when a connection failed.
The size of this data has been reduced in three ways:
(a) reducing the size of the process name itself. The process name consisted of two 32-bit fields for the jobid and vpid. This is far larger than any current system, or system likely to exist in the near future, can support. Accordingly, the default size of these fields has been reduced to 16-bits, which means you can have 32k procs in each of 32k jobs. Since the daemons must have a vpid, and we require one daemon/node, this also restricts the default configuration to 32k nodes.
To support any future "mega-clusters", a configuration option --enable-jumbo-apps has been added. This option increases the jobid and vpid field sizes to 32-bits. Someday, if necessary, someone can add yet another option to increase them to 64-bits, I suppose.
(b) replacing the string nodename with an integer nodeid. Since we have one daemon/node, the nodeid corresponds to the local daemon's vpid. This replaces an often lengthy string with only 2 (or at most 4) bytes, a substantial reduction.
(c) when the mca param requesting that nodenames be sent to support pretty error messages, a second mca param is now used to request FQDN - otherwise, the domain name is stripped (by default) from the message to save space. If someone wants to combine those into a single param somehow (perhaps with an argument?), they are welcome to do so - I didn't want to alter what people are already using.
While these may seem like small savings, they actually amount to a significant impact when aggregated across the entire modex operation. Since every proc must receive the modex data regardless of the collective used to send it, just reducing the size of the process name removes nearly 400MBytes of communication from a 32k proc job (admittedly, much of this comm may occur in parallel). So it does add up pretty quickly.
3. routing RML messages to reduce connections. The default messaging system remains point-to-point - i.e., each proc opens a socket to every proc it communicates with and sends its messages directly. A new option uses the orteds as routers - i.e., each proc only opens a single socket to its local orted. All messages are sent from the proc to the orted, which forwards the message to the orted on the node where the intended recipient proc is located - that orted then forwards the message to its local proc (the recipient). This greatly reduces the connection storm we have encountered during startup.
It also has the benefit of removing the sharing of every proc's OOB contact with every other proc. The orted routing tables are populated during launch since every orted gets a map of where every proc is being placed. Each proc, therefore, only needs to know the contact info for its local daemon, which is passed in via the environment when the proc is fork/exec'd by the daemon. This alone removes ~50 bytes/process of communication that was in the current STG1 startup message - so for our 32k proc job, this saves us roughly 32k*50 = 1.6MBytes sent to 32k procs = 51GBytes of messaging.
Note that you can use the new routing method by specifying -mca routed tree - if you so desire. This mode will become the default at some point in the future.
There are a few minor additional changes in the commit that I'll just note in passing:
* propagation of command line mca params to the orteds - fixes ticket #1073. See note there for details.
* requiring of "finalize" prior to "exit" for MPI procs - fixes ticket #1144. See note there for details.
* cleanup of some stale header files

- opal-checkpoint now has a 'quiet' flag to keep it from being too verbose.
- FileM RSH component is fully non-blocking.
- FileM RSH component has incomming connection throttling since by default
ssh only allows 10 concurrent scp connections to any single host. This
default can be adjusted via an MCA parameter.

- There is an MCA parameter for max outgoing connections, but it is currently

- Changed the FileM request structure so that it is a bit more explicit and
flexible.
- Moved the 'preload-binary' and 'preload-files' functionality into odls/base
allowing for code reuse in the 'process' and 'default' ODLS components.
- Fixed a bug in the process name resolution which broke the 'preload-*'
functionality due to GPR table structure changes.
- The FileM RSH component might be able to see even more speedup from using a
thread pool to operate on the work_pool structures, but that is for future
work.

1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

4. MX bug will go away if the pml is specified.
5. No useless BTL will be opened, which will solve few others issues.

based on non-threaded development (since the variable names will be

"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? :).

- mca_base_param_file_prefix
(Default: NULL)
This is the fullname of the "-am" mpirun option. Used to specify a ':'
separated list of AMCA parameter set files.
- mca_base_param_file_path
(Default: $SYSCONFDIR/amca-param-sets/:$CWD)
The path to search for AMCA files with relative paths. A warning will be
printed if the AMCA file cannot be found.
* Added a new function "mca_base_param_recache_files" the re-reads the file
configurations. This is used internally to help bootstrap the MCA system.
* Added a new orterun/mpirun command line option '-am' that aliases for the
mca_base_param_file_prefix MCA parameter
* Exposed the opal_path_access function as it is generally useful in other
places in the code.
* New function "opal_cmd_line_make_opt_mca" which will allow you to append a
new command line option with MCA parameter identifiers to set at the same
time. Previously this could only be done at command line declaration time.
* Added a new directory under the $pkgdatadir named "amca-param-sets" where all
the 'shipped with' Open MPI AMCA parameter sets are placed. This is the first
place to search for AMCA sets with relative paths.
* An example.conf AMCA parameter set file is located in
contrib/amca-param-sets/.
* Jeff Squyres contributed an OpenIB AMCA set for benchmarking.
Note: You will need to autogen with this commit as it adds a configure param.

the dispatch function opal_atomic_cmpset_acq_xx was used to call
opal_atomic_cmpset_acq_32 would cause the compiler / linker to fix up a
jump address to be itself, leading to an infinite loop.
We're still looking into exactly what caused this, but during the
investigation into the hang, we determined that the compiler (both pathcc
and gcc) weren't always inlining both the call to opal_atomic_cmpset_acq_xx
and opal_atomic_cmpset_acq_32, meaning there was a function call in
opal_atomic_lock. The atomic lock will always be 32 bit, so there's no
need for the dispatch function, so might as well remove the dispatch
function that may or may not be inlined.
A bug fix that leads to potentially better performance. Gotta love the
few times that happens...

* Rename the static OBJ initializer macro to be
OPAL_OBJ_STATIC_INIT(class)
* Ensure that all static OBJ initializations get a refcount of 1
(doesn't ''really'' matter, since they're static, it should never
get to the point where the OBJ is DESTRUCTed, but more correct
nonetheless)
* Add a "magic number" to the OBJ when compiling with debug support.
The magic number does some rudimentary support to ensure that
you're operating on a valid OBJ (and fails an assertion if you're
not). Check to ensure that the memory contains the magic number
when performing actions of OBJ's. Also remove the magic number
when DESTRUCTing OBJs, so that if, for example, an OBJ is
DESTRUCTed more than once, we'll fail the magic number assert.

- Only install opal{cc,c++} and orte{cc,c++} if configured with

there are no header files installed for either project, so there's
really not much way for a user to actually compile an OPAL / ORTE
application.
- Drop support for opalCC and orteCC. It's a pain to setup all the
symlinks (indeed, they are currently done wrong for opalCC) and
there's no history like there is for mpiCC.
- Change what is currently opalcc.1 to opal_wrapper.1 and add some
macros that get sed'ed so that the man pages appear to be
customized for the given command.
- Install the wrapper data files even if we compiled with
