helper file, even if we find that the system has <infiniband/verbs.h>.
The reason is because there are some inline functions in that verbs
helper file that invoke ibv_* functions. Some linkers (e.g., Solaris
Studio Compilers) will instantiate those static inline functions --
even if we don't use them -- and therefore we need to be able to
resolve the ibv_* symbols at link time.
But since -libverbs is only specified in places where we use other
ibv_* functions (e.g., the OpenFabrics-based BTLs), that means that
linking random executables can/will fail (e.g., orterun).
So instead, introduce a new #define: OPAL_HWLOC_WANT_VERBS_HELPER. If
this macro is set to 1 before including opal/mca/hwloc/hwloc.h, then
you'll also get the hwloc OpenFabrics verbs helper header file (*if*
hwloc found <infiniband/verbs.h> -- otherwise, it'll #error).
This commit was SVN r26417.
* Remove paffinity, maffinity, and carto frameworks -- they've been
wholly replaced by hwloc.
* Move ompi_mpi_init() affinity-setting/checking code down to ORTE.
* Update sm, smcuda, wv, and openib components to no longer use carto.
Instead, use hwloc data. There are still optimizations possible in
the sm/smcuda BTLs (i.e., making multiple mpools). Also, the old
carto-based code found out how many NUMA nodes were ''available''
-- not how many were used ''in this job''. The new hwloc-using
code computes the same value -- it was not updated to calculate how
many NUMA nodes are used ''by this job.''
* Note that I cannot compile the smcuda and wv BTLs -- I ''think''
they're right, but they need to be verified by their owners.
* The openib component now does a bunch of stuff to figure out where
"near" OpenFabrics devices are. '''THIS IS A CHANGE IN DEFAULT
BEHAVIOR!!''' and still needs to be verified by OpenFabrics vendors
(I do not have a NUMA machine with an OpenFabrics device that is a
non-uniform distance from multiple different NUMA nodes).
* Completely rewrite the OMPI_Affinity_str() routine from the
"affinity" mpiext extension. This extension now understands
hyperthreads; the output format of it has changed a bit to reflect
this new information.
* Bunches of minor changes around the code base to update names/types
from maffinity/paffinity-based names to hwloc-based names.
* Add some helper functions into the hwloc base, mainly having to do
with the fact that we have the hwloc data reporting ''all''
topology information, but sometimes you really only want the
(online | available) data.

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.

the truncate bit
* Track active vs. waiting for free short unexpected receive blocks so
to ensure an active short unexpected receive block is posted coming out

be released once FREE event is received.
* Slight reorganization of some code in preparation for more flow control
work.

This feature can be enabled at compile time with --with-cma passed
to configure.
At runtime it is also necessary to add "--mca btl btl_sm_use_cma 1"
to the mpirun command.
If both CMA and KNEM are compiled in and enabled at runtime then
KNEM will take precedence and CMA will disable itself

Turns out, this isn't necessarily true. The Cray, for example, launches processes in a toroidal pattern, thus causing the daemons to wind up somewhere other than what we thought. Other environments (e.g., slurm) are also capable of such behavior, depending upon the default mapping algorithm they are told to use.
Resolve this problem by making the daemon-to-node assignment in the affected environments when the daemon calls back and tells us what node it is on. Order the nodes in the mapping list so they are in daemon-vpid order as opposed to the order in which they show in the allocation. For environments that don't exhibit this mapping behavior (e.g., rsh), this won't have any impact.
Also, clean up the vm launch procedure a little bit so it more closely aligns with the state machine implementation that is coming, and remove some lingering "slave" code.

to make MPI_IN_PLACE (and other sentinel Fortran constants) work on OS
X, we need to use the following compiler (linker) flag:
-Wl,-commons,use_dylibs
So if we're compiling on OS X, test to see if that flag works with the
compiler. If so, add it to the wrapper FFLAGS and FCFLAGS (note that
per a future update, we'll only have one Fortran compiler anyway).

Brian dealt with this in the past by creating platform files and using "no-build" to block the components. This was clunky, but acceptable when only one organization was using that option. However, that number has now expanded to at least two more locations.
Accordingly, make --without-rte-support actually work by adding appropriate configury to prevent components from building when they shouldn't. While doing so, remove two frameworks (db and rmcast) that are no longer used as ORCM comes to a close (besides, they belonged in ORCM now anyway). Do some minor cleanups along the way.

The wiki page is incomplete at the moment, but I hope to complete it over the next few days. I will provide updates on the devel list. As the wiki page states, the default and most commonly used options remain unchanged (except as noted below). New, esoteric and complex options have been added, but unless you are a true masochist, you are unlikely to use many of them beyond perhaps an initial curiosity-motivated experimentation.
In a nutshell, this commit revamps the map/rank/bind procedure to take into account topology info on the compute nodes. I have, for the most part, preserved the default behaviors, with three notable exceptions:
1. I have at long last bowed my head in submission to the system admin's of managed clusters. For years, they have complained about our default of allowing users to oversubscribe nodes - i.e., to run more processes on a node than allocated slots. Accordingly, I have modified the default behavior: if you are running off of hostfile/dash-host allocated nodes, then the default is to allow oversubscription. If you are running off of RM-allocated nodes, then the default is to NOT allow oversubscription. Flags to override these behaviors are provided, so this only affects the default behavior.
2. both cpus/rank and stride have been removed. The latter was demanded by those who didn't understand the purpose behind it - and I agreed as the users who requested it are no longer using it. The former was removed temporarily pending implementation.
3. vm launch is now the sole method for starting OMPI. It was just too darned hard to maintain multiple launch procedures - maybe someday, provided someone can demonstrate a reason to do so.
As Jeff stated, it is impossible to fully test a change of this size. I have tested it on Linux and Mac, covering all the default and simple options, singletons, and comm_spawn. That said, I'm sure others will find problems, so I'll be watching MTT results until this stabilizes.
