- Allreduce algorithms:
- Recursive doubling is used for small messages (up to 10KB) and can be used for
both commutative and non-commutative operations.
Recursive doubling passed OCC, IMB-3.2, Intel (Allreduce_c, Allreduce_loc_c, and
Allreduce_user_c), mpi_test_suite (Allreduce MIN/MAX, and Allreduce MIN/MAX with
MPI_IN_PLACE) tests on TCP up to 36 nodes and MX up to 64 nodes.
- Ring algorithms performs well for larger messages but cannot be used for
non-commutative operations. It passed the same tests as recursive doubling, except
some of the non-commutative tests in Intel benchmarks Allreduce_loc_c and Allreduce_user_c
(which was expected).
- MPI_Allreduce with new decision function passed all of the tests mentioned above.
- Cleaning up coll_tuned_util. Moving isendrecv to static inline just like sendrecv.
This commit was SVN r13252.
- removing static qualification on ompi_coll_tuned_sendrecv
- adding ompi_coll_tuned_isendrecv function which posts isend and irecv requests
These changes are separate from but necessary for new algorithms I am working on.
This commit was SVN r13161.
- utilizing coll_tuned_util functions
- setting line length to 80.
This implementation uses standard send messages (instead of synchronous ones).
The change improved our performance over MX multiple number of times, however,
there exists a small potential that last message to be sent can be delayed
(until next mpi call, which means potentially infinitely).
If this shows to be a problem, I will modify the algorithms to use synchronous
send as last operation (which will incur performance penalty again).
This commit was SVN r13071.
- in allgather algorithms I replaces irecv-isend-waitall sequence with
call to ompi_coll_tuned_sendrecv
- most of the functions in util code and allgather decision function conform to 80 character line width.

Fixes trac:590
This commit was SVN r13031.
The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 590 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/590
It contains four algorithms:
Bruck (ciel(logP) steps), Recursive Doubling (log(P) for power-of-2 processes), Ring (P-1 steps),
and Neighbor Exchange (P/2 steps for even number of processes).
All algorithms passed occ, IMB-2.3, and intel verification tests from ompi-tests/ for up to 56 processes.
The fixed decision function is based on results collected over MX on the Grig cluster at
the University of Tennessee at Knoxville.
I have also added (and commented out) copy of MPICH2 decision function for allgather
(from their IJHPCA 2005 paper).
This commit was SVN r12910.
- consistent arguments checking (not allowing to select an algorithm which
is not available)
- consistent way of computing the segcount (number of datatypes by segment).
- small cleanups.
- more informative debugging messages.

description. Most of the bcast algorithms can be completed using this
generic function once we create the tree structure. Add all kind of
trees.
There are 2 versions of the generic bcast function. One using overlapping
between receives (for intermediary nodes) and then blocking sends to all
childs and another where all sends are non blocking. I still have to
figure out which one give the smallest overhead.
This commit was SVN r12530.
the default decision functions (for broadcast, reduce and barrier) are based on a
high performance network (not TCP). It should give good performance (really good) for
any network having the following caracteristics: small latency (5 microseconds) and good
bandwidth (more than 1Gb/s).
+ Cleanup of the reduce algorithms, plus 2 new algorithms (binary and binomial). Now most
of the reduce algorithms use a generic tree based function for completing the reduce.
+ Added macros for computing the trees (they are used for bcast and reduce right now).
+ Allow the usage of all 5 topologies.
+ Jelena's implementation of a binary tree that can be used for non commutative operations.
Right now only the tree building function is there, it will get activated soon.
+ Some others minor cleanups.

all platforms. The only exceptions (and I will not deal with them
anytime soon) are on Windows:
- the write functions which require the length to be an int when it's
a size_t on all UNIX variants.
- all iovec manipulation functions where the iov_len is again an int
when it's a size_t on most of the UNIXes.
As these only happens on Windows, so I think we're set for now :)

size and diplacement of data-type. After this patch all data can contain size_t bytes
and the displacements are defined as ptrdiff_t. All of the files I was able to compile
have been modified to match this requirement.
This commit was SVN r12146.
George: ompi_ddt_type_size() returns a signed int only because of the
MPI spec; it will never return a negative value. So casting the
return value out of it to a (uint32_t) is safe, and makes the
comparisons be between two unsigned values.

yes this means it WAS possible for two nodes to choice two different algorithms
(discovered by Doug Gregor and figured out by George)
Also changed some names like size to comsize so we know which sizes we are using where
This should be updated in al versions
This commit was SVN r10601.
(1) As pointed out by Torsten after Jeff comment that there are 15 collectives yesterday.. nope.. I have 16 but
miss counted them in my ifdefs (I had two #11s). Replaces with enum...
(2) Added a readonly MCA param for how many backend algorithms are available per collective (used by benchmarker/STS)
This allowed me to remove the tuned query internal functions and replace them with ompi_coll_tuned_forced_max_algorithms[COLL].
(3) I was reading the user forced MCA params for the collectives on each comm create (module init) but I then put the
values into a global set of variables (like ompi_coll_tuned_reduce_forced_algorithm).
To fix this and make the code neater:
(a) The component looks up the MCA param indices on Open if dynamic_rules is set via the
ompi_coll_tuned_COLLECTIVE_intra_check_forced_init () call.
(b) Got rid of the ompi_coll_ompi_coll_tuned_COLLECTIVE_forced_algorithm/segmentsize/etc globals with a struct that
is now cached on the module data hung off the communicator. i.e. done right.
(c) On module init if dynamic rules enabled we call a general getvalues routine (in coll_tuned_forced.c) to get the
CURRENT values using the MCA param indices and then put them on the modules data segment.
A shorter version of getvalues exists for barrier which only needs the algorithm choice

- 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)

be locally completing. for now using synchronous calls until the new functionality is available. then will change
the code to use the new PML send flags.
This commit was SVN r8867.
this was implemented using a chain (tree followed with pipeline) by setting the chain fanout to a factor of size etc but the chain datastructure was fixed in length and if exceeded the topo create returned a null which isn't helpfull in cid next function of comdup...
Anyway two fixes, first we do have a real linear function so changed the decision function and second altered the
topo chain create to force chain fanouts of less than 1 to 1 and fanouts bigger than max to max.
next check in will change chain to dynamically allocd array (reallocable) but we shouldn't ever use a chain fanout for a linear tree anyway.
(lession must rerun all tests for all data sizes when changing decision functions)

(apparently we've been doing this in opal and orte, but not in ompi

mca_coll_tuned_) except the component struct. Now this component
passes the illegal symbol report with no hits.

the baseline collective component. Please report any problems with
this component.
If you run into problems with this component, you can disable it with:

Lots of misc fixes: printfs->opal_output, handles fanin/out correctly for forced ops
unused vars, correct calculations on meaning of 'msgsize' for decision functions
(varies depending on algorithm), etc

updates to fixed dec rules.

started to add static (fixed if) statement based decision rules based on gigE numbers
added mca params so that a user can force a certain algorithm/segment/topo on a per collective basis
(this is not in the fixed call path but only in the dynamic (at com create) call path).
(these params can be used by test suites such as OCC to choice which algorithm they are using).

- Sample in each of the three projects of how to link againt the
