Short description: major changes include -
1. singletons now fork/exec a local daemon to manage their operations.
2. the orte daemon code now resides in libopen-rte
3. daemons no longer use the orte triggering system during startup. Instead, they directly call back to their parent pls component to report ready to operate. A base function to count the callbacks has been provided.
I have modified all the pls components except xcpu and poe (don't understand either well enough to do it). Full functionality has been verified for rsh, SLURM, and TM systems. Compile has been verified for xgrid and gridengine.

* Remove the 'opal_mca_base_param_use_amca_sets' global variable
* Harness the fact that you can (read should) call the cmd_line functions
before initializing opal_init_util(). This pushes the MCA/GMCA/AMCA
command line options into the environment before OPAL inits and starts
to use these values. By putting the cmd_line parse before opal_init_util
in orterun and orted we only parse the *MCA parameter files once, and
correctly (alleviating the need to 'recache' the files on init.)
* Small bits of cleanup.

Per suggestion, if we don't find a valid shell via getpwuid(), also
check the $SHELL environment variable. Also perform a few minor
cleanups along the way.

1. generalize orte_rml.xcast to become a general broadcast-like messaging system. Messages can now be sent to any tag on the daemons or processes. Note that any message sent via xcast will be delivered to ALL processes in the specified job - you don't get to pick and choose. At a later date, we will introduce an augmented capability that will use the daemons as relays, but will allow you to send to a specified array of process names.
2. extended orte_rml.xcast so it supports more scalable message routing methodologies. At the moment, we support three: (a) direct, which sends the message directly to all recipients; (b) linear, which sends the message to the local daemon on each node, which then relays it to its own local procs; and (b) binomial, which sends the message via a binomial algo across all the daemons, each of which then relays to its own local procs. The crossover points between the algos are adjustable via MCA param, or you can simply demand that a specific algo be used.
3. orteds no longer exhibit two types of behavior: bootproxy or VM. Orteds now always behave like they are part of a virtual machine - they simply launch a job if mpirun tells them to do so. This is another step towards creating an "orteboot" functionality, but also provided a clean system for supporting message relaying.
Note one major impact of this commit: multiple daemons on a node cannot be supported any longer! Only a single daemon/node is now allowed.
This commit is known to break support for the following environments: POE, Xgrid, Xcpu, Windows. It has been tested on rsh, SLURM, and Bproc. Modifications for TM support have been made but could not be verified due to machine problems at LANL. Modifications for SGE have been made but could not be verified. The developers for the non-verified environments will be separately notified along with suggestions on how to fix the problems.

symbols in them and environ is defined only in the final application
(probably in crt1.o). Apple provides a function for getting at the
environment, so use that instead if it's available.

via the visibility feature that is provided by some compilers.
Per default this feature is disabled, to enable it you need to
configure with --enable-visibility and obviously you need a compiler
with visibility support. Please refer to the wiki for more information.

This commit was SVN r14582.
This completes the minor changes required to the PLS components. Basically, there is a small change required to the parameter list of the orted cmd functions. I caught and did it for xcpu and poe, in addition to the components listed in my email - so I think that only leaves xgrid unconverted.
The orted fail-to-start mods will also make changes in the PLS components, but those can be localized so they come in one at a time.
This commit was SVN r14499.
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.

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).
This commit was SVN r14449.

the program it try to spawn is missing.
Description of the problem: When the rsh pls try to spawn a local
process which is missing (such as a removed orted) the orterun
deadlock.
Description of the fix: The forked child deal with finding the
program to be executed. If it fails to find it, then instead of
calling exit (as a normal forked program is expected to do) it
continue the execution using a execution path it was never
expected to use (back in orterun and then main). Bad things
happens as expected. Forcing the child to use exit when it fails
to find the orted (and forcing the child to use exit everywhere
instead of return) correct the logic of the rsh pls and make it
behave as expected.
This commit was SVN r14377.
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).
