* Add a configure time option to rename libmpi(_FOO).*
- `--with-libmpi-name=STRING`
* This commit only impacts the installed libraries.
Internal, temporary libraries have not been renamed to limit the
scope of the patch to only what is needed.
For example:
```shell
shell$ ./configure --with-libmpi-name=wookie
...
shell$ find . -name "libmpi*"
shell$ find . -name "libwookie*"
./lib/libwookie.so.0.0.0

This component is a workaround to a bug in libibverbs that prints a
dire warning that usNIC devices are not supported (of course not --
usNIC devices provide functionality through libfabric, not
libibverbs). This component was written before a better workaround
was created: a "no op" libibverbs plugin for usNIC devices
(https://github.com/cisco/libusnic_verbs, and is also available in
binary form on cisco.com).
Hence, this component no longer builds by default. It's still
available if a user specifically asks for it (e.g., if they do not
want to install the "no op" libibverbs plugin), but it's not the
default. This component also has the side-effect of making
libopen-pal.so depend on libibverbs.so, which can be annoying for
packagers (which is another reason it isn't built by default any
more).

with a Portals4 description.
Thanks to Paul Hargrove for spotting this and supplying the patch.
Embedding libltdl without the use of Libtool bootstrapping has
proven... difficult. Instead, create a new simple "dl" framework. It
only provides 4 functions:
- open a DSO (very similar to lt_dlopenadvise())
- lookup a symbol in a previously-opened DSO (very similar to lt_dlsym())
- close a previously-opened DSO (very similar to lt_dlclose())
- iterate over all files in a directory (very similar to ld_dlforeachfile())
There will be follow-on commits with a simple dlopen-based component
(nowhere near as complete/functional as libltdl, but good enough for
Linux and OS X), and a libltdl-based component for all other
platforms.
The intent is that the dlopen-based component can be built by default
in almost all cases. But if libltdl is available, that component will
be built. End result: we still get DSO-based functionality by default
in (almost?) all cases. Without embedding libltdl. Which is what we
want.
Remove sections of README concerning Cray that are no longer
relevant owing to being obsolete. Minor grammar fixes.
Clarification of the --with-pmi section, as this works
differently for Cray systems.
This commit was SVN r32819.
What started as a simple ticket ended up reaching the way up to the
MPI Forum.
It turns out that we are supposed to have MPI_SIZEOF for all Fortran
interfaces: mpif.h, the mpi module, and the mpi_f08 module.
It further turns out that to properly support MPI_SIZEOF, your Fortran
compiler *has* support the INTERFACE keyword and ISO_FORTRAN_ENV. We
can't use "ignore TKR" functionality, because the whole point of
MPI_SIZEOF is that the implementation knows what type was passed to it
("ignore TKR" functionality, by definition, throws that information
away). Hence, we have to have an MPI_SIZEOF interface+implementation
for all intrinsic types, kinds, and ranks.
This commit therefore adds a perl script that generates both the
interfaces and implementations for MPI_SIZEOF in each of mpif.h, the
mpi module, and mpi_f08 module (yay consolidation!).
The perl script uses the results of some new configure tests:
* check if the Fortran compiler supports the INTERFACE keyword
* check if the Fortran compiler supports ISO_FORTRAN_ENV
* find the max array rank (i.e., dimension) that the compiler supports
If the Fortran compiler supports both INTERFACE and ISO_FORTRAN_ENV,
then we'll build the MPI_SIZEOF interfaces. If not, we'll skip
MPI_SIZEOF in mpif.h and the mpi module. Note that we won't build the
mpi_f08 module -- to include the MPI_SIZEOF interfaces -- if the
Fortran compiler doesn't support INTERFACE, ISO_FORTRAN_ENV, and a
whole bunch of ther modern Fortran stuff.
Since MPI_SIZEOF interfaces are now generated by the perl script, this
commit also removes all the old MPI_SIZEOF implementations (which were
laden with a zillion #if blocks).

implementation does (that is not quite adherant to the Fortran
standard). If a compiler allows this behavior, build the mpi_f08
wrapper. For example, ifort allows it, but Pathscale/EKOPath 5.0 is
stricter in its Fortran compliance and disallows it.
This test is temporary; the real fix is to make OMPI adhere to Fortran
properly (i.e., see #4157). Once we fix#4157, this test should be
removed. The main reason for committing this test is to put it into
v1.7.4 so that we can release, but with the intent to remove it by
1.7.5 (or 1.8.x at the latest!).

Each Fortran bindings layer builds on the other. Specifically:
* You can build just mpif.h support
* You can build mpif.h and "use mpi" support
* You can build mpif.h and "use mpi" and "use mpi_f08" support
You cannot build mpif.h and "use mpi_f08" support without also
building "use mpi" support.
This new functionality adds new capabilities to the existing
--enable-fortran-mpi switch. You can now pass the following values:
* --enable-fortran-mpi=no or none: synonyms for --disable-fortran-mpi
(i.e., build no Fortran bindings).
* --enable-fortran-mpi=mpifh: build only mpif.h support
* --enable-fortran-mpi=usempi: build mpif.h and "use mpi" support
* --enable-fortran-mpi=usempif08: build mpif.h, "use mpi", and "use
mpi_f08" support
* --enable-fortran-mpi=yes or all: synonyms for --enable-fortran-mpi
(i.e., no argument), which will attempt to build all 3 Fortran
bindings

meeting, and RFCed in mid-December (#3424): we no longer build the MPI
C++ bindings by default.
The C++ bindings are still ''there'' -- starting with 1.9, we'll just
be providing a little encouragement to no longer use them.
There are no definite plans to ''remove'' the C++ bindings yet. At
the earliest, we would remove them in the next feature series after
1.9.

* Add new configure command line options and deprecate some old ones:
* --with-verbs replaces --with-openib
* --with-verbs-libdir replaces --with-openib-libdir
* If you specify --with-openib[-libdir] without
--with-verbs[-libdir], you'll get a "these options have been
deprecated!" warning, but then they'll act just like
--with-verbs[--libdir].
'''Sidenote:''' Note that we are not renaming any components at this
time, nor are we renaming the top-level OMPI_CHECK_OPENIB m4 macro
(which is pretty strongly tied to the openib BTL and is bastaridzed
by the ofud BTL). Note that there will likely be more changes in
this area coming soon (next week?) when some long-standing changes
move to the SVN trunk: some openib BTL infrastructure will move to
ompi/mca/common, and its configury gets split up / refactored.
We extend our philosophy of other --with-<foo> configure options of
--with-verbs to ''all'' verbs-lovin components:
* If you specify --with-verbs, then all verbs-lovin' components must
configure successfully (or abort). This currently means: OOB ud,
BTL ofud, BTL openib.
* If you specify --with-verbs=DIR, then all verbs-lovin' component
must configure successfully (or abort), and will use DIR to find
verbs headers and libraries.
* If you specify --without-verbs, then all verbs-lovin' components
will be ignored.
This commit also fixes a problem where the --with-openib=DIR form
would not use DIR for ''all'' verbs-lovin' components (I think only
BTL openib and BTL ofud used that DIR). Now all of them do, as does
hwloc (because hwloc has some !OpenFabrics helper functions that
require ibv types from verbs.h).
There's a little new m4 infrastructure worth mentioning:
* If you create a new verbs-lovin' component (i.e., a component that
need verbs), your configure.m4 should
AC_REQUIRE([OPAL_CHECK_VERBS_DIR]).
* You can then use three global shell variables: $opal_want_verbs,
$opal_verbs_dir, $opal_verbs_libdir, which will be set as follows:
* opal_want_verbs will be "yes" and opal_verbs_dir and
opal_verbs_libdir will both be set to directory values, '''OR'''
* opal_want_verbs will be "no" and opal_verbs_dir and
opal_verbs_libdir will both be set empty

1. New mpifort wrapper compiler: you can utilize mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08 through this one wrapper compiler
1. mpif77 and mpif90 still exist, but are sym links to mpifort and may be removed in a future release
1. The mpi module has been re-implemented and is significantly "mo' bettah"
1. The mpi_f08 module offers many, many improvements over mpif.h and the mpi module
This stuff is coming from a VERY long-lived mercurial branch (3 years!); it'll almost certainly take a few SVN commits and a bunch of testing before I get it correctly committed to the SVN trunk.
== More details ==
Craig Rasmussen and I have been working with the MPI-3 Fortran WG and Fortran J3 committees for a long, long time to make a prototype MPI-3 Fortran bindings implementation. We think we're at a stable enough state to bring this stuff back to the trunk, with the goal of including it in OMPI v1.7.
Special thanks go out to everyone who has been incredibly patient and helpful to us in this journey:
* Rolf Rabenseifner/HLRS (mastermind/genius behind the entire MPI-3 Fortran effort)
* The Fortran J3 committee
* Tobias Burnus/gfortran
* Tony !Goetz/Absoft
* Terry !Donte/Oracle
* ...and probably others whom I'm forgetting :-(
There's still opportunities for optimization in the mpi_f08 implementation, but by and large, it is as far along as it can be until Fortran compilers start implementing the new F08 dimension(..) syntax.
Note that gfortran is currently unsupported for the mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module. gfortran users will a) fall back to the same mpi module implementation that is in OMPI v1.5.x, and b) not get the new mpi_f08 module. The gfortran maintainers are actively working hard to add the necessary features to support both the new mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module implementations. This will take some time.
As mentioned above, ompi/mpi/f77 and ompi/mpi/f90 no longer exist. All the fortran bindings implementations have been collated under ompi/mpi/fortran; each implementation has its own subdirectory:
{{{
ompi/mpi/fortran/
base/ - glue code
mpif-h/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f77
use-mpi-tkr/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f90
use-mpi-ignore-tkr/ - new mpi module implementation
use-mpi-f08/ - new mpi_f08 module implementation
}}}
There's also a prototype 6-function-MPI implementation under use-mpi-f08-desc that emulates the new F08 dimension(..) syntax that isn't fully available in Fortran compilers yet. We did that to prove it to ourselves that it could be done once the compilers fully support it. This directory/implementation will likely eventually replace the use-mpi-f08 version.
Other things that were done:
* ompi_info grew a few new output fields to describe what level of Fortran support is included
* Existing Fortran examples in examples/ were renamed; new mpi_f08 examples were added
* The old Fortran MPI libraries were renamed:
* libmpi_f77 -> libmpi_mpifh
* libmpi_f90 -> libmpi_usempi
* The configury for Fortran was consolidated and significantly slimmed down. Note that the F77 env variable is now IGNORED for configure; you should only use FC. Example:
{{{
shell$ ./configure CC=icc CXX=icpc FC=ifort ...
}}}
All of this work was done in a Mercurial branch off the SVN trunk, and hosted at Bitbucket. This branch has got to be one of OMPI's longest-running branches. Its first commit was Tue Apr 07 23:01:46 2009 -0400 -- it's over 3 years old! :-) We think we've pulled in all relevant changes from the OMPI trunk (e.g., Fortran implementations of the new MPI-3 MPROBE stuff for mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08, and the recent Fujitsu Fortran patches).
I anticipate some instability when we bring this stuff into the trunk, simply because it touches a LOT of code in the MPI layer in the OMPI code base. We'll try our best to make it as pain-free as possible, but please bear with us when it is committed.

Worked with Oracle to verify that hwloc PCI detection is correctly
disabled on the Suse 10/64 bit platform and is enabled by default on
all other platforms. The --[en|dis]able-hwloc-pci switch is also
available for manual override of the configure decision about hwloc
PCI support.
