8b778903d8 Fix longstanding issue with our multi-project support. Rather than using
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.

c9e5ab9ed1 Our macros for the OMPI-level free list had one extra argument, a possible return
value to signal that the operation of retrieving the element from the free list
failed. However in this case the returned pointer was set to NULL as well, so the
error code was redundant. Moreover, this was a continuous source of warnings when
the picky mode is on.

The attached parch remove the rc argument from the OMPI_FREE_LIST_GET and
OMPI_FREE_LIST_WAIT macros, and change to check if the item is NULL instead of
using the return code.

cf377db823 MCA/base: Add new MCA variable system
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().

opal: update core and components to mca_base_var system
orte: update core and components to mca_base_var system
ompi: update core and components to mca_base_var system

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.

4d1920ee87 Fix a bug on 32-bit systems introduced by r26626. This fix ensures that all supported btls (with exception of wv-- shiqing will need to help bring that one up to date with r26626) set the lval in prepare_src/dst when preparing a put or get segment. This fix also ensures a consistent use of lval in put and get for both local and remote segments.

fceabb2498 Update libevent to the 2.0 series, currently at 2.0.7rc. We will update to their final release when it becomes available. Currently known errors exist in unused portions of the libevent code. This revision passes the IBM test suite on a Linux machine and on a standalone Mac.
This is a fairly intrusive change, but outside of the moving of opal/event to opal/mca/event, the only changes involved (a) changing all calls to opal_event functions to reflect the new framework instead, and (b) ensuring that all opal_event_t objects are properly constructed since they are now true opal_objects.

Note: Shiqing has just returned from vacation and has not yet had a chance to complete the Windows integration. Thus, this commit almost certainly breaks Windows support on the trunk. However, I want this to have a chance to soak for as long as possible before I become less available a week from today (going to be at a class for 5 days, and thus will only be sparingly available) so we can find and fix any problems.

Biggest change is moving the libevent code from opal/event to a new opal/mca/event framework. This was done to make it much easier to update libevent in the future. New versions can be inserted as a new component and tested in parallel with the current version until validated, then we can remove the earlier version if we so choose. This is a statically built framework ala installdirs, so only one component will build at a time. There is no selection logic - the sole compiled component simply loads its function pointers into the opal_event struct.

I have gone thru the code base and converted all the libevent calls I could find. However, I cannot compile nor test every environment. It is therefore quite likely that errors remain in the system. Please keep an eye open for two things:

1. compile-time errors: these will be obvious as calls to the old functions (e.g., opal_evtimer_new) must be replaced by the new framework APIs (e.g., opal_event.evtimer_new)

2. run-time errors: these will likely show up as segfaults due to missing constructors on opal_event_t objects. It appears that it became a typical practice for people to "init" an opal_event_t by simply using memset to zero it out. This will no longer work - you must either OBJ_NEW or OBJ_CONSTRUCT an opal_event_t. I tried to catch these cases, but may have missed some. Believe me, you'll know when you hit it.

There is also the issue of the new libevent "no recursion" behavior. As I described on a recent email, we will have to discuss this and figure out what, if anything, we need to do.

40a2bfa238 WARNING: Work on the temp branch being merged here encountered problems with bugs in subversion. Considerable effort has gone into validating the branch. However, not all conditions can be checked, so users are cautioned that it may be advisable to not update from the trunk for a few days to allow MTT to identify platform-specific issues.
This merges the branch containing the revamped build system based around converting autogen from a bash script to a Perl program. Jeff has provided emails explaining the features contained in the change.

Please note that configure requirements on components HAVE CHANGED. For example. a configure.params file is no longer required in each component directory. See Jeff's emails for an explanation.

c8bb7537e7 Remove include/opal/sys/cache.h -- its only purpose in life was to
#define CACHE_LINE_SIZE to 128.  This name has a conflict on NetBSD,
and it seems kinda odd to have a header file that ''only'' defines a
single value.  Also, we'll soon be raising hwloc to be a first-class
item, so having this file around seemed kinda weird.

Therefore, I replaced CACHE_LINE_SIZE with opal_cache_line_size, an
int (in opal/runtime/opal_init.c and opal/runtime/opal.h) on the
rationale that we can fill this in at runtime with hwloc info (trunk
and v1.5/beyond, only).  The only place we ''needed'' a compile-time
CACHE_LINE_SIZE was in the BTL SM (for struct padding), so I made a
new BTL_SM_ preprocessor macro with the old CACHE_LINE_SIZE value
(128).  That use isn't suitable for run-time hwloc information,
anyway.

872a4047ba Fix the bug that caused by ADD_DEPENDENCIES() from different version of CMake.
In CMake 2.6 and earlier, this function add dependencies for targets and also link the target libraries automatically, but in CMake 2.8,this behavior has been changed, i.e. it will only add the dependencies but no link, which will cause linking errors at compilation time.

6c5532072a - Split the datatype engine into two parts: an MPI specific part in
OMPI
   and a language agnostic part in OPAL. The convertor is completely
   moved into OPAL.  This offers several benefits as described in RFC
   http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2009/07/6387.php
   namely:
    - Fewer basic types (int* and float* types, boolean and wchar
    - Fixing naming scheme to ompi-nomenclature.
    - Usability outside of the ompi-layer.
 - Due to the fixed nature of simple opal types, their information is
   completely
   known at compile time and therefore constified
 - With fewer datatypes (22), the actual sizes of bit-field types may be
   reduced
   from 64 to 32 bits, allowing reorganizing the opal_datatype
   structure, eliminating holes and keeping data required in convertor
   (upon send/recv) in one cacheline...
   This has implications to the convertor-datastructure and other parts
   of the code.
 - Several performance tests have been run, the netpipe latency does not
   change with
   this patch on Linux/x86-64 on the smoky cluster.
 - Extensive tests have been done to verify correctness (no new
   regressions) using:
   1. mpi_test_suite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and
    ompi-ddt:
    a. running both trunk and ompi-ddt resulted in no differences
       (except for MPI_SHORT_INT and MPI_TYPE_MIX_LB_UB do now run
       correctly).
    b. with --enable-memchecker and running under valgrind (one buglet
       when run with static found in test-suite, commited)
   2. ibm testsuite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and ompi-ddt:
      all passed (except for the dynamic/ tests failed!! as trunk/MTT)
   3. compilation and usage of HDF5 tests on Jaguar using PGI and
      PathScale compilers.
   4. compilation and usage on Scicortex.
 - Please note, that for the heterogeneous case, (-m32 compiled
   binaries/ompi), neither
   ompi-trunk, nor ompi-ddt branch would successfully launch.

221fb9dbca ... Delayed due to notifier commits earlier this day ...
- Delete unnecessary header files using
   contrib/check_unnecessary_headers.sh after applying
   patches, that include headers, being "lost" due to
   inclusion in one of the now deleted headers...

   In total 817 files are touched.
   In ompi/mpi/c/ header files are moved up into the actual c-file,
   where necessary (these are the only additional #include),
   otherwise it is only deletions of #include (apart from the above
   additions required due to notifier...)

 - To get different MCAs (OpenIB, TM, ALPS), an earlier version was
   successfully compiled (yesterday) on:
   Linux locally using intel-11, gcc-4.3.2 and gcc-SVN + warnings enabled
   Smoky cluster (x86-64 running Linux) using PGI-8.0.2 + warnings enabled

fd28b392bf - An intrusive commit yet again (sorry): with the separation we
get bitten by header depending on having already included
   the corresponding [opal|orte|ompi]_config.h header.
   When separating, things like [OPAL|ORTE|OMPI]_DECLSPEC
   are missed.

   Script to add the corresponding header in front of all following
   (taking care of possible #ifdef HAVE_...)

 - Including some minor cleanups to
   - ompi/group/group.h -- include _after_ #ifndef OMPI_GROUP_H
   - ompi/mca/btl/btl.h -- nclude _after_ #ifndef MCA_BTL_H
   - ompi/mca/crcp/bkmrk/crcp_bkmrk_btl.c -- still no need for
     orte/util/output.h
   - ompi/mca/pml/dr/pml_dr_recvreq.c -- no need for mpool.h
   - ompi/mca/btl/btl.h -- reorder to fit
   - ompi/mca/bml/bml.h -- reorder to fit
   - ompi/runtime/ompi_mpi_finalize.c -- reorder to fit
   - ompi/request/request.h -- additionally need ompi/constants.h

   opal_bitmap_set_max_size() is currently only used in attribute.c

463f11f993 Improve shared-memory allocation:
* compute mmap-file size more wisely and pass requested size to allocator
* change MCA parameters:
  - get rid of mpool_sm_per_peer_size
  - get rid of mpool_sm_max_size
  - set default mpool_sm_min_size to 0
* no longer pad sm allocations to page boundaries
* have sm_btl_first_time_init check return codes on free-list creations

Have mca_btl_sm_prepare_src() check to see if it can allocate an EAGER fragment
rather than a MAX fragment if the smaller size works.

Remove ompi/class/ompi_[circular_buffer_]fifo.h and references thereto.

9613b3176c Effectively revert the orte_output system and return to direct use of opal_output at all levels. Retain the orte_show_help subsystem to allow aggregation of show_help messages at the HNP.
After much work by Jeff and myself, and quite a lot of discussion, it has become clear that we simply cannot resolve the infinite loops caused by RML-involved subsystems calling orte_output. The original rationale for the change to orte_output has also been reduced by shifting the output of XML-formatted vs human readable messages to an alternative approach.

I have globally replaced the orte_output/ORTE_OUTPUT calls in the code base, as well as the corresponding .h file name. I have test compiled and run this on the various environments within my reach, so hopefully this will prove minimally disruptive.

e361bcb64c Send optimizations.
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.

e7ecd56bd2 This commit represents a bunch of work on a Mercurial side branch. As
such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly
long.

= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =

Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):

 * orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
   orte_output_verbose, etc.)  This function sends the output directly
   to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
   channel.  It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
   (syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
   is sent to the HNP for processing and output.  More on this below.
 * orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
   opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
   1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
      display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
      stream)
   1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
      (so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
      each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
      of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
      there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")

opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process.  The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output.  As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.

=== New code ===

For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:

 * Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
   Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
   declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
   orte_show_help()).
 * Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
   Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
   list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
   so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
   slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
 * Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/.  The function signature
   is identical.

=== Notes ===

 * orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
   opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
   argument is safe.
 * For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
   orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
   counterparts (the additional information passed to
   orte_output_open() will be lost!).  Indeed, the orte_* functions
   simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts.  Note
   that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
   possible that we mucked something up.

= Filter Framework =

Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr.  The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations.  The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc.  This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).

Filtering is not active by default.  Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:

{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}

There can only be one filter component active.

= New MCA Parameters =

The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:

 * '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
   help messages will be aggregated, as described above.  If set to 0,
   all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
   (i.e., the original behavior).
 * '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
   debug one of the known issues, described below.  It is likely that
   this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.

= Known Issues =

 * The XML filter component is not complete.  The current output from
   this component is preliminary and not real XML.  A bit more work
   needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
   library/link it in/use it at run time.
 * There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
   orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
   or orte_show_help().  We have some ideas how to fix these, but
   figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
   issues.  The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
   that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
   solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

dc7f45dafd Remove the obsolete and largely unused orte_system_info structure. The only fields that were used in that struct were nodeid and nodename - these have been transferred to the orte_process_info structure.
Only one place used the user name field - session_dir, when formulating the name of the top-level directory. Accordingly, the code for getting the user's id has been moved to the session_dir code.

6310ce955c The first patch related to the Active Message stuff. So far, here is what we have:
- the registration array is now global instead of one by BTL.
- each framework have to declare the entries in the registration array reserved. Then
  it have to define the internal way of sharing (or not) these entries between all
  components. As an example, the PML will not share as there is only one active PML
  at any moment, while the BTLs will have to. The tag is 8 bits long, the first 3
  are reserved for the framework while the remaining 5 are use internally by each
  framework.
- The registration function is optional. If a BTL do not provide such function,
  nothing happens. However, in the case where such function is provided in the BTL
  structure, it will be called by the BML, when a tag is registered.

Now, it's time for the second step... Converting OB1 from a switch based PML to an
active message one.

3401bd2b07 Add optional ordering to the BTL interface.
This is required to tighten up the BTL semantics. Ordering is not guaranteed,
but, if the BTL returns a order tag in a descriptor (other than
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER) then we may request another descriptor that will obey
ordering w.r.t. to the other descriptor.


This will allow sane behavior for RDMA networks, where local completion of an
RDMA operation on the active side does not imply remote completion on the
passive side. If we send a FIN message after local completion and the FIN is
not ordered w.r.t. the RDMA operation then badness may occur as the passive
side may now try to deregister the memory and the RDMA operation may still be
pending on the passive side. 

Note that this has no impact on networks that don't suffer from this
limitation as the ORDER tag can simply always be specified as
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER.

3ebaff8dfe Implement new BTL parameters:
We eagerly send data up to btl_*_eager_limit with the match
Upon ACK of the MATCH we start using send/receives of size
btl_*_max_send_size up to the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset
After the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset we begin using RDMA writes of
size btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size.

Now, on a per message basis we only use the above protocol if the
message is larger than btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size

btl_*_eager_limit - > same
btl_*_max_send_size -> same
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset -> btl_*_min_rdma_size
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size -> btl_*_max_rdma_size


btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size is new..

This patch also moves all BTL common parameters initialisation into
btl_base_mca.c file.
