- new preferred API calls for registering MCA parameters are
mca_base_param_reg_{int|string} and
mca_base_param_reg_{int|string}_name.
- See opal/mca/base/mca_base_param.h for docs on new calls.
- Can now register and lookup a value at the same time.
- Can now mark a parameter "read only" at registration time
- Can now mark a parameter "internal" at registration time
- Can now associate a help message with the parameter at registration
time; displayed in the ompi_info output.
The old API calls are still available for backwards compatibility
(mca_base_param_register_{int|string}. They will eventually be
removed -- all developers are encouraged to use the new APIs from here
on out and replace any old calls with the new API.
Some params were also renamed -- the previous convention of using
"base_" as a prefix for any param that was not associated with a
component is henceforth deprecated. Instead, use one of the following
prefixes:
mca: for anything in the MCA base itself
opal: for anything in OPAL
orte: for anything in ORTE
mpi: for anything in OMPI

* add btl back into ompi_info. Since it now directly calls the
open/close, the missing symbol problems Ralph was seeing when ob1 is
ignored will not occur.
This commit was SVN r6652.
support in OMPI. Currently only enables/disables the architecture
sharing modex in ob1 pml.
* Add sds framework to ompi_info
* Figure out table ids to use for Portals BTL at configure time, since
we should use 30 & 31 on Red Storm, but the reference implementation
only supports 0-8.
* Some bug fixes in Portals UTCP sds
This commit was SVN r6650.
- only call sched_yield if it exists
- don't fail out if modex doens't work in ob1
- bunch of fixes for Portals BTL
- add cnos rml component
- add NULL gpr component (should only be used if replica AND proxy
fail to load)
This commit was SVN r6629.
* remove the recv fragment code, since it really isn't needed
* handle memory descriptor binding a bit more sanely, and use
thresholds so that Portals does the unlink for us, when it feels
like it.
This commit was SVN r6575.
* change all the opal_output_verbose calls in the critical path to
OPAL_OUTPUT_VERBOSE so that they are pre-processed out if debugging
is not enabled
* remove stub code
This commit was SVN r6564.
