Add --display-devel-map and --display-devel-alloc to display all the detailed info we used to provide - it is only of use/interest to developers anyway and confuses users.
This commit was SVN r19608.
Some minor changes to help facilitate debugger support so that both mpirun and yod can operate with it. Still to be completed.
This commit was SVN r18664.
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.
This commit was SVN r18619.
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.

A subset of this patch needs to be applied to v1.2
Refs trac:928
This commit was SVN r15918.
The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 928 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/928
You will not see any impact from this change unless you use the syntax described in ticket #1023. I've tried as many of the RAS components as possible and saw no problem - there may be issues with other RAS components that would not compile on any of my systems. Anything that appears should be trivial to fix.
This commit was SVN r15427.
- Simplified the logic of the ras modules by moving the attribute handling into the base allocation function. This allows us to decide how to allocate based on the situation, and solves some of the allocation problems we were having with comm_spawn.
- moved the proxy component into the base. This was done because we always want to call the proxy functions if we are not on a HNP regardless of the attributes passed.
- Got rid of the hostfile component. What little logic was in it was moved into the base to deal with other circumstances. The hostfile information is currently being propagated into the registry by the RDS, so we just use what is already in the registry.
- renamed some slurm function so that they have the proper prefix. Not strictly necessary as they were static, but it makes debugging much easier.
- fixed a buglet in the round_robin rmaps where we would return an error when really no error occured.
I tried to make proper corrections to all the ras modules, but I cannot test all of them.
This commit was SVN r12202.
1. Modifies the RAS framework so it correctly stores and retrieves the actual slots in use, not just those that were allocated. Although the RAS node structure had storage for the number of slots in use, it turned out that the base function for storing and retrieving that information ignored what was in the field and simply set it equal to the number of slots allocated. This has now been fixed.
2. Modified the RMAPS framework so it updates the registry with the actual number of slots used by the mapping. Note that daemons are still NOT counted in this process as daemons are NOT mapped at this time. This will be fixed in 2.0, but will not be addressed in 1.x.
3. Added a new MCA parameter "rmaps_base_no_oversubscribe" that tells the system not to oversubscribe nodes even if the underlying environment permits it. The default is to oversubscribe if needed and the underlying environment permits it. I'm sure someone may argue "why would a user do that?", but it turns out that (looking ahead to dynamic resource reservations) sometimes users won't know how many nodes or slots they've been given in advance - this just allows them to say "hey, I'd rather not run if I didn't get enough".
4. Reorganizes the RMAPS framework to more easily support multiple components. A lot of the logic in the round_robin mapper was very valuable to any component - this has been moved to the base so others can take advantage of it.
5. Added a new test program "hello_nodename" - just does "hello_world" but also prints out the name of the node it is on.
6. Made the orte_ras_node_t object a full ORTE data type so it can more easily be copied, packed, etc. This proved helpful for the RMAPS code reorganization and might be of use elsewhere too.

- move files out of toplevel include/ and etc/, moving it into the
sub-projects
- rather than including config headers with <project>/include,
have them as <project>
- require all headers to be included with a project prefix, with
the exception of the config headers ({opal,orte,ompi}_config.h
mpi.h, and mpif.h)

(where "." is a trunk checkout)
The logs from this branch are much more descriptive than I will put
here (including a *really* long description from last night). Here's
the short version:
- fixed some broken implementations in ras and rmaps
- "orterun --host ..." now works and has clearly defined semantics
(this was the impetus for the branch and all these fixes -- LANL had
a requirement for --host to work for 1.0)
- there is still a little bit of cleanup left to do post-1.0 (we got
correct functionality for 1.0 -- we did not fix bad implementations
that still "work")
- rds/hostfile and ras/hostfile handshaking
- singleton node segment assignments in stage1
- remove the default hostfile (no need for it anymore with the
localhost ras component)
- clean up pls components to avoid duplicate ras mapping queries
- [possible] -bynode/-byslot being specific to a single app context
This commit was SVN r7664.
Have the ras_base_schedule_policy MCA parameter working once again. before it
would only do slot based allocation, even if the MCA parameter was set properly.
Currently you can specify to orterun a node allocation by either:
-mca ras_base_schedule_policy node
-bynode
and slot allocation (which is the default) by:
-mca ras_base_schedule_policy slot
-byslot
This commit was SVN r7513.
- change the framework opens to [mostly] use the new MCA param API
- properly pass in framework debug output streams to the
mca_base_component_open() function
This commit was SVN r6888.
ns_replica.c
- Removed the error logging since I use this function in orte_init_stage1 to
check if we have created a cellid yet or not.
ras_types.h & rase_base_node.h
- This was an empty file. moved the orte_ras_node_t from base/ras_base_node.h
to this file.
- Changed the name of orte_ras_base_node_t to orte_ras_node_t to match the
naming mechanisms in place.
ras.h
- Exposed 2 functions:
- node_insert:
This takes a list of orte_ras_base_node_t's and places them in the Node
Segment of the GPR. This is to be used in orte_init_stage1 for singleton
processes, and the hostfile parsing (see rds_hostfile.c). This just puts
in the appropriate API interface to keep from calling the
orte_ras_base_node_insert function directly.
- node_query:
This is used in hostfile parsing. This just puts in the appropriate API
interface to keep from calling the orte_ras_base_node_query function
directly.
- Touched all of the implemented components to add reference to these new
function pointers
ras_base_select.c & ras_base_open.c
- Add and set the global module reference
rds.h
- Exposed 1 function:
- store_resource:
This stores a list of rds_cell_desc_t's to the Resource Segment.
This is used in conjunction with the orte_ras.node_insert function in
both the orte_init_stage1 for singleton processes and rds_hostfile.c
rds_base_select.c & rds_base_open.c
- Add and set the global module reference
rds_hostfile.c
- Added functionality to create a new cellid for each hostfile, placing
each entry in the hostfile into the same cellid. Currently this is
commented out with the cellid hard coded to 0, with the intention of
taking this out once ORTE is able to handle multiple cellid's
- Instead of just adding hosts to the Node Segment via a direct call to
the ras_base_node_insert() function. First add the hosts to the Resource
Segment of the GPR using the orte_rds.store_resource() function then use
the API version of orte_ras.node_insert() to store the hosts on the Node
Segment.
- Add 1 new function pointer to module as required by the API.
rds_hostfile_component.c
- Converted this to use the new MCA parameter registration
orte_init_stage1.c
- It is possible that a cellid was not created yet for the current environment.
So I put in some logic to test if the cellid 0 existed. If it does then
continue, otherwise create the cellid so we can properly interact with the
GPR via the RDS.
- For the singleton case we insert some 'dummy' data into the GPR. The RAS
matches this logic, so I took out the duplicate GPR put logic, and
replaced it with a call to the orte_ras.node_insert() function.
- Further before calling orte_ras.node_insert() in the singleton case,
we also call orte_rds.store_resource() to add the singleton node to the
Resource Segment.
Console:
- Added a bunch of new functions. Still experimenting with many aspects of the
implementation. This is a checkpoint, and has very limited functionality.
- Should not be considered stable at the moment.
