* Fix some missing includes in a few places.
* Add the cr_request() functionality to the BLCR CRS component.
We are now dependent upon the 0.6.* series of BLCR.
* Made the CR notification mechanism a registered function.
This way we can have an OPAL-only version and it can be replaced at
runtime with the ORTE version.
* Add a 'opal_cr_allow_opal_only' parameter that will enable OPAL-only
CR functionality when the user wants it. Default: Disabled.
* Fix the placement of a checkpoint request check in MPI_Init
* Pull the OPAL notification mechanism into the SnapC framework.
* We no longer fork/exec the 'opal-checkpoint' command for local
checkpointing, the Local coordinator in the orted does this directly.
* The Local and Application coordinator talk together bypassing the OPAL
notifiation mechanism.
* Optimized the Local <-> App Coordinator communication.
* Improved the structure used to track vpid_snapshots in the local coord.
* Fix a race condition in which an application under heavy communication load
may produce an inconsistent global checkpoint.
This commit was SVN r16389.
The commit has been tested for C/R and Cray operations, and on Odin (SLURM, rsh) and RoadRunner (TM). I tried to update all environments, but obviously could not test them. I know that Windows needs some work, and have highlighted what is know to be needed in the odls process component.
This represents a lot of work by Brian, Tim P, Josh, and myself, with much advice from Jeff and others. For posterity, I have appended a copy of the email describing the work that was done:
As we have repeatedly noted, the modex operation in MPI_Init is the single greatest consumer of time during startup. To-date, we have executed that operation as an ORTE stage gate that held the process until a startup message containing all required modex (and OOB contact info - see #3 below) info could be sent to it. Each process would send its data to the HNP's registry, which assembled and sent the message when all processes had reported in.
In addition, ORTE had taken responsibility for monitoring process status as it progressed through a series of "stage gates". The process reported its status at each gate, and ORTE would then send a "release" message once all procs had reported in.
The incoming changes revamp these procedures in three ways:
1. eliminating the ORTE stage gate system and cleanly delineating responsibility between the OMPI and ORTE layers for MPI init/finalize. The modex stage gate (STG1) has been replaced by a collective operation in the modex itself that performs an allgather on the required modex info. The allgather is implemented using the orte_grpcomm framework since the BTL's are not active at that point. At the moment, the grpcomm framework only has a "basic" component analogous to OMPI's "basic" coll framework - I would recommend that the MPI team create additional, more advanced components to improve performance of this step.
The other stage gates have been replaced by orte_grpcomm barrier functions. We tried to use MPI barriers instead (since the BTL's are active at that point), but - as we discussed on the telecon - these are not currently true barriers so the job would hang when we fell through while messages were still in process. Note that the grpcomm barrier doesn't actually resolve that problem, but Brian has pointed out that we are unlikely to ever see it violated. Again, you might want to spend a little time on an advanced barrier algorithm as the one in "basic" is very simplistic.
Summarizing this change: ORTE no longer tracks process state nor has direct responsibility for synchronizing jobs. This is now done via collective operations within the MPI layer, albeit using ORTE collective communication services. I -strongly- urge the MPI team to implement advanced collective algorithms to improve the performance of this critical procedure.
2. reducing the volume of data exchanged during modex. Data in the modex consisted of the process name, the name of the node where that process is located (expressed as a string), plus a string representation of all contact info. The nodename was required in order for the modex to determine if the process was local or not - in addition, some people like to have it to print pretty error messages when a connection failed.
The size of this data has been reduced in three ways:
(a) reducing the size of the process name itself. The process name consisted of two 32-bit fields for the jobid and vpid. This is far larger than any current system, or system likely to exist in the near future, can support. Accordingly, the default size of these fields has been reduced to 16-bits, which means you can have 32k procs in each of 32k jobs. Since the daemons must have a vpid, and we require one daemon/node, this also restricts the default configuration to 32k nodes.
To support any future "mega-clusters", a configuration option --enable-jumbo-apps has been added. This option increases the jobid and vpid field sizes to 32-bits. Someday, if necessary, someone can add yet another option to increase them to 64-bits, I suppose.
(b) replacing the string nodename with an integer nodeid. Since we have one daemon/node, the nodeid corresponds to the local daemon's vpid. This replaces an often lengthy string with only 2 (or at most 4) bytes, a substantial reduction.
(c) when the mca param requesting that nodenames be sent to support pretty error messages, a second mca param is now used to request FQDN - otherwise, the domain name is stripped (by default) from the message to save space. If someone wants to combine those into a single param somehow (perhaps with an argument?), they are welcome to do so - I didn't want to alter what people are already using.
While these may seem like small savings, they actually amount to a significant impact when aggregated across the entire modex operation. Since every proc must receive the modex data regardless of the collective used to send it, just reducing the size of the process name removes nearly 400MBytes of communication from a 32k proc job (admittedly, much of this comm may occur in parallel). So it does add up pretty quickly.
3. routing RML messages to reduce connections. The default messaging system remains point-to-point - i.e., each proc opens a socket to every proc it communicates with and sends its messages directly. A new option uses the orteds as routers - i.e., each proc only opens a single socket to its local orted. All messages are sent from the proc to the orted, which forwards the message to the orted on the node where the intended recipient proc is located - that orted then forwards the message to its local proc (the recipient). This greatly reduces the connection storm we have encountered during startup.
It also has the benefit of removing the sharing of every proc's OOB contact with every other proc. The orted routing tables are populated during launch since every orted gets a map of where every proc is being placed. Each proc, therefore, only needs to know the contact info for its local daemon, which is passed in via the environment when the proc is fork/exec'd by the daemon. This alone removes ~50 bytes/process of communication that was in the current STG1 startup message - so for our 32k proc job, this saves us roughly 32k*50 = 1.6MBytes sent to 32k procs = 51GBytes of messaging.
Note that you can use the new routing method by specifying -mca routed tree - if you so desire. This mode will become the default at some point in the future.
There are a few minor additional changes in the commit that I'll just note in passing:
* propagation of command line mca params to the orteds - fixes ticket #1073. See note there for details.
* requiring of "finalize" prior to "exit" for MPI procs - fixes ticket #1144. See note there for details.
* cleanup of some stale header files

- If one wants to use this solution, remember to unload the project 'orte-restart' which is currently not working for Windows.
This commit was SVN r15680.
The problem stemmed from no longer launching a local orted on the same node as mpirun. The orted would save and reuse the base environment. Mpirun didn't do that, and the odls was using the orted's globally saved environment (which wasn't being set).
This fix establishes a globally accessible base launch environment that both the orted and mpirun can utilize. Since we now use that, we don't need to pass it to the odls_launch_proc function, so remove that param from the API (and modify all components to handle the change).
This commit was SVN r15405.
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.
This commit was SVN r15390.
* Making some symbols and types be global (vs. static) in orterun
* Adding a "ddt" entry in the MCA parameter orte_base_user_debugger
default value
* Add support for @executable@, @executable_argv@, and @single_app@
tokens in the orte_base_user_debugger MCA parameter.
* Added various error checks and corresponding help messages after
finding a debugger in the PATH

* 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.
This commit was SVN r15219.
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.

environment, so use that instead if it's available.
This commit was SVN r14857.
The primary change that underlies all this is in the OOB. Specifically, the problem in the code until now has been that the OOB attempts to resolve an address when we call the "send" to an unknown recipient. The OOB would then wait forever if that recipient never actually started (and hence, never reported back its OOB contact info). In the case of an orted that failed to start, we would correctly detect that the orted hadn't started, but then we would attempt to order all orteds (including the one that failed to start) to die. This would cause the OOB to "hang" the system.
Unfortunately, revising how the OOB resolves addresses introduced a number of additional problems. Specifically, and most troublesome, was the fact that comm_spawn involved the immediate transmission of the rendezvous point from parent-to-child after the child was spawned. The current code used the OOB address resolution as a "barrier" - basically, the parent would attempt to send the info to the child, and then "hold" there until the child's contact info had arrived (meaning the child had started) and the send could be completed.
Note that this also caused comm_spawn to "hang" the entire system if the child never started... The app-failed-to-start helped improve that behavior - this code provides additional relief.
With this change, the OOB will return an ADDRESSEE_UNKNOWN error if you attempt to send to a recipient whose contact info isn't already in the OOB's hash tables. To resolve comm_spawn issues, we also now force the cross-sharing of connection info between parent and child jobs during spawn.
Finally, to aid in setting triggers to the right values, we introduce the "arith" API for the GPR. This function allows you to atomically change the value in a registry location (either divide, multiply, add, or subtract) by the provided operand. It is equivalent to first fetching the value using a "get", then modifying it, and then putting the result back into the registry via a "put".
This commit was SVN r14711.
To be precise, given this hypothetical launching pattern:
host1: vpids 0, 2, 4, 6
host2: vpids 1, 3, 5, 7
The local_rank for these procs would be:
host1: vpids 0->local_rank 0, v2->lr1, v4->lr2, v6->lr3
host2: vpids 1->local_rank 0, v3->lr1, v5->lr2, v7->lr3
and the number of local procs on each node would be four. If vpid=0 then does a comm_spawn of one process on host1, the values of the parent job would remain unchanged. The local_rank of the child process would be 0 and its num_local_procs would be 1 since it is in a separate jobid.
I have verified this functionality for the rsh case - need to verify that slurm and other cases also get the right values. Some consolidation of common code is probably going to occur in the SDS components to make this simpler and more maintainable in the future.

This commit was SVN r14582.
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).

(Default: $SYSCONFDIR/amca-param-sets/:$CWD)
The path to search for AMCA files with relative paths. A warning will be

* Added a new orterun/mpirun command line option '-am' that aliases for the
mca_base_param_file_prefix MCA parameter
* Exposed the opal_path_access function as it is generally useful in other
places in the code.
* New function "opal_cmd_line_make_opt_mca" which will allow you to append a
new command line option with MCA parameter identifiers to set at the same
time. Previously this could only be done at command line declaration time.
* Added a new directory under the $pkgdatadir named "amca-param-sets" where all
the 'shipped with' Open MPI AMCA parameter sets are placed. This is the first
place to search for AMCA sets with relative paths.
* An example.conf AMCA parameter set file is located in

* Jeff Squyres contributed an OpenIB AMCA set for benchmarking.
Note: You will need to autogen with this commit as it adds a configure param.

The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 726 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/726
1. add a "cancel_operation" API to the pls components that allows orterun to demand that an orted operation (e.g., terminate_job) be immediately cancelled and abandoned.
2. changes the pls orted commands from blocking to non-blocking. This allows us to interrupt those operations should an orted be non-responsive. The change also adds an orte_abort_timeout that limits how long orterun will automatically wait for the orteds to respond - if the terminate command, for example, doesn't see orted response within that time, then we printout an appropriate error message and just give up.
3. modifies orterun to allow multiple ctrl-c's to simply abort the program even if the orteds have not responded
4. does some cleanup on the orte-level mca params so that their implementation looks a lot more like that of ompi - makes it easier to maintain. This change also includes the definition of an orte_abort_timeout struct and associated MCA param (can't have too many!) so you can set the time after which orterun gives up on waiting for orteds to respond
This needs more testing before migrating to 1.2.
This commit was SVN r13304.
to effect the following:
* The first time the user hits ctrl-c, we go into the process of
killing the ORTE job (this is not new).
* While waiting for the job to actually terminate, if the user hits
ctrl-c a second time, we print a warning saying "Hey, I'm still
trying to kill the job. If you *really* want me to die
immediately, hit ctrl-c again within 1 second."
* If the user hits ctrl-c a within 1 second, orterun quits with a
warning about how the job may not have actually been killed.
Note that none of this logic won't really work until the second part
of the fix for #726 is also committed (i.e., make pls.terminate_job()
non-blocking). So I'm now throwing the ticket over to Ralph for the
second part of the fix...

Add placeholders for the new orte tools. These don't actually do anything yet - in fact, I have set the .ompi_ignore so that you won't compile them (I have set a .ompi_unignore for me). Please let me know if you encounter any trouble with this - the ompi_ignore's should protect everyone.

1. new functionality in the pls base to check for reusable daemons and launch upon them
2. an extension of the odls API to allow each odls component to build a notify message with the "correct" data in it for adding processes to the local daemon. This means that the odls now opens components on the HNP as well as on daemons - but that's the price of allowing so much flexibility. Only the default odls has this functionality enabled - the others just return NOT_IMPLEMENTED
3. addition of a new command line option "--reuse-daemons" to orterun. The default, for now, is to NOT reuse daemons. Once we have more time to test this capability, we may choose to reverse the default. For one thing, we probably want to investigate the tradeoffs in start time for comm_spawn'd processes that reuse daemons versus launch their own. On some systems, though, having another daemon show up can cause problems - so they may want to set the default as "reuse".
This is ONLY enabled for rsh launch, at the moment. The code needing to be added to each launcher is about three lines long, so I'll be doing that as I get access to machines I can test it on.
This commit was SVN r12608.
Accordingly, there are new APIs to the name service to support the ability to get a job's parent, root, immediate children, and all its descendants. In addition, the terminate_job, terminate_orted, and signal_job APIs for the PLS have been modified to accept attributes that define the extent of their actions. For example, doing a "terminate_job" with an attribute of ORTE_NS_INCLUDE_DESCENDANTS will terminate the given jobid AND all jobs that descended from it.
I have tested this capability on a MacBook under rsh, Odin under SLURM, and LANL's Flash (bproc). It worked successfully on non-MPI jobs (both simple and including a spawn), and MPI jobs (again, both simple and with a spawn).
This commit was SVN r12597.
1. Fix the "hang" condition when an application isn't found. It turned out that the ODLS had some difficulty with the process actually not having been started - hence, it never called the waitpid callback. As a result, the "terminated" trigger didn't fire, and so mpirun didn't wake up. With this change, the HNP's errmgr forces the issue by causing the trigger to fire itself when an abort condition occurs.
2. Shift the recording of the pid and the nodename from mpi_init to the orted launcher. This allows programs such as Eclipse PTP to get the pids even for non-MPI applications. In the case of bproc, the pls handles this chore since we don't use orteds in that system.
This commit was SVN r12558.
1. ORTE_RMAPS_DISPLAY_AT_LAUNCH: pretty-prints out the process map right before we launch so you can see where everyone is going. This is settable via the command line option "--display-map-at-launch"
2. ORTE_RMGR_STOP_AFTER_SETUP: just setup the job and then return from the spawn command.
3. ORTE_RMGR_STOP_AFTER_ALLOC: return from the rmgr.spawn call after allocating the job
4. ORTE_RMGR_STOP_AFTER_MAP: return from the rmgr.spawn call after mapping the job. This gives folks a chance to retrieve and graphically display the map, let the user edit it, and store the results. They can then call "launch" on their own and the system will use the revised map.
Enjoy! My personal favorite is the first one - helps with debugging.

Fix the problem observed by multiple people that comm_spawned children were (once again) being mapped onto the same nodes as their parents. This was caused by going through the RAS a second time, thus overwriting the mapper's bookkeeping that told RMAPS where it had left off.
To solve this - and to continue moving forward on the ORTE development - we introduce the concept of attributes to control the behavior of the RM frameworks. I defined the attributes and a list of attributes as new ORTE data types to make it easier for people to pass them around (since they are now fundamental to the system, and therefore we will be packing and unpacking them frequently). Thus, all the functions to manipulate attributes can be implemented and debugged in one place.
I used those capabilities in two places:
1. Added an attribute list to the rmgr.spawn interface.
2. Added an attribute list to the ras.allocate interface. At the moment, the only attribute I modified the various RAS components to recognize is the USE_PARENT_ALLOCATION one (as defined in rmgr_types.h).
So the RAS components now know how to reuse an allocation. I have debugged this under rsh, but it now needs to be tested on a wider set of platforms.

I have tested on rsh, slurm, bproc, and tm. Bproc continues to have a problem (will be asking for help there).

Add --enable-orterun-prefix-by-default (and a synonym:
--enable-mpirun-prefix-by-default) to make orterun always behave as if
"--prefix $prefix" was given on the command line (where $prefix is the
value given to the --prefix option to configure). This prevents many
rsh/ssh users from needing to modify their shell startup files to set
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for Open MPI (they will still need to set PATH or
otherwise find the OMPI executables to mpicc/mpirun/etc. their MPI
applications).
Also added --noprefix option to orterun to disable this behavior.
Finally, note that even if --enable-orterun-prefix-by-default is
specified, if the user specifies --prefix or /path/to/mpirun, these
options will override the default value of the prefix ($prefix).

Other changes:
1. Remove the old xcpu components as they are not functional.
2. Fix a "bug" in orterun whereby we called dump_aborted_procs even when we normally terminated. There is still some kind of bug in this procedure, however, as we appear to be calling the orterun job_state_callback function every time a process terminates (instead of only once when they have all terminated). I'll continue digging into that one.
This will require an autogen/configure, I'm afraid.

Clean up the remainder of the size_t references in the runtime itself. Convert to orte_std_cntr_t wherever it makes sense (only avoid those places where the actual memory size is referenced).
Remove the obsolete oob barrier function (we actually obsoleted it a long time ago - just never bothered to clean it up).
I have done my best to go through all the components and catch everything, even if I couldn't test compile them since I wasn't on that type of system. Still, I cannot guarantee that problems won't show up when you test this on specific systems. Usually, these will just show as "warning: comparison between signed and unsigned" notes which are easily fixed (just change a size_t to orte_std_cntr_t).
In some places, people didn't use size_t, but instead used some other variant (e.g., I found several places with uint32_t). I tried to catch all of them, but...
Once we get all the instances caught and fixed, this should once and for all resolve many of the heterogeneity problems.

Added another system-level test function for ORTE that just spins until terminated by a ctrl-c signal.
Modified orterun - added a couple of newlines to the output when abnormally terminating so the prompt always is on a new line.

- change -no_oversubscribe to -nooversubscribe (to be similar to
-nolocal)
- Added text to orterun.1 describing slots and -nooversubscribe
Still need to add text about "mpirun a.out" functionality, and RHC
wants to make some minor edits, so committing for synchronization.
This commit was SVN r10800.
Update the help text to report errors when not following that rule.
Also updated the RMAPS help text to reflect the reorganization of some of the round-robin code into the base.
The new functionality has been tested under Mac OS-X and on Odin using an MPI program. Both byslot and bynode mapping have been checked and verified. Operational support for other systems needs to be verified - I respectfully request people's help in doing so.

This moves the logic to create the symbolic links for:
- mpirun
- mpiexec
- ompi-ps
- ompi-clean
and their respective man pages to the ompi level from
the orte layer.
This is a bit pedantic, but orte shouldn't be doing the
work of ompi since that is a bit of an abstraction break.
Note: need to autogen.sh to get this. Sorry :(

SIGUSR2. This can be extended later if needed to include other
signals we should forward to the user processes (TSTP and CONT,
perhaps?)
* Since the signal handlers don't actually run in signal context, we
can use malloc/fprintf/etc. So clean up some of the signal handler
code so that we don't keep message buffers around for the life of
the process

mpirun/orterun now has an option to print the version number. If -V/--version
is given, it will print the version number. If it's the only option, we
exit cleanly. Otherwise, we continue on as if --version wasn't given
(except we've printed the version number).

1. Changed the RMGR and PLS APIs to add "signal_job" and "signal_proc" entry points. Only the "signal_job" entries are implemented - none of the components have implementations for "signal_proc" at this time. Thus, you can signal all of the procs in a job, but cannot currently signal only one specific proc.
2. Implemented those new API functions in all components except xgrid (Brian will do so very soon). Only the rsh/ssh and fork modules have been tested, however, and only under OS-X.
3. Added signal traps and callback functions for SIGUSR1/2 to orterun/mpirun that catch those signals and call the appropriate commands to propagate them out to all processes in the job.
4. Added a new test directory under the orte branch to (eventually) hold unit and system level tests for just the run-time. Since our test branch of the repository is under restricted access, people working on the RTE were continually developing their own system-level tests - thus making it hard to help diagnose problems. I have moved the more commonly-used functions here, and added one specifically for testing the SIGUSR1/2 functionality.
I will be contacting people directly to seek help with testing the changes on more environments. Other than compile issues, you should see absolutely no change in behavior on any of your systems - this additional functionality is transparent to anyone who does not issue a SIGUSR1/2 to mpirun.

option as discussed on the devel-core mailing list. The Big
Difference is that instead of hard-coding the strings "/lib" and
"/bin" in to append to the prefix, we append the basename of the local
libdir and bindir. Hence, if your libdir is $prefix/lib64, we'll
append /lib64 to construct the remote node's LD_LIBRARY_PATH (etc.).
Also appended the orterun.1 man page to include a description of
--prefix, how it is constructed, what it handles / what it does not,
etc.

but not build or install the support binaries (so basically, just build
the libraries).

NOTE: JEFF SHOULD CHECK THIS!
I found that orterun was not tracking the index number of the app_contexts it was creating. Hence, the app_context->idx field was always sitting at zero. This index is used by the mapper to decide which app_context to use for each process - thus, with the value of each index being zero, the mapper only used the first app_context that was created. All others were ignored.
Not sure when this might have gotten changed. Could be it was a problem that always existed, but didn't get exposed until something else was changed.
Anyway, it seems to work now - could stand further testing.

(reported by Cisco)
- While in orterun, add a feature that multiple users have asked for:
if you specify an absolute pathname to orterun, such as
"/path/to/bin/orterun ...", it's equivalent to "orterun --path
/path/to ..."

This needs to be gone over a few more times before it is allowed to see
daylight, but has come a long way. Some sections may be off more than a little,
but the general idea is there.
Need to audit to make sure we don't call the ORTE VHNP's daemons :)

Finished adding and pruning all the the Options.
Cleaned up a bunch of man syntax, so it should be 'more' readable (making the
assumption that man source is ever readable :p).

argv[0] and the cwd on the target node (i.e., the node where the
executable will be running in all systems except BProc, where the
searches are run on the node where orterun is invoked).
- fork pls now does cwd and argv[0] search in orted
- bproc pls does cwd and argv[0] search in orterun
- cwd behavior slightly different:
- if user specifies a -wdir to orterun, we chdir() to there; if we
can't for some reason, abort
- if user does not specify a -wdir, try to chdir() to the dir where
orterun was invoked. If we can't for some reason (e.g., it
doesn't exist on the target node), then try to chdir($HOME). If
we can't do that, then just live with whatever default directory
we were put in.

really needs to be documented (in part so that users stop asking us
how to do it!).
This is a first cut at an orterun.1 man page. It is 95% copied from
LAM's mpirun.1 lam page -- I just edited the very top and am handing
this off to Josh to finish the first cut. Then we'll add specific
docs about the behavior of some of the finer details. This is not
listed in the Makefile.am yet because it's so incomplete/incorrect
(w.r.t. OMPI), so I don't want it included in the tarball or installed
[yet].

- move files out of toplevel include/ and etc/, moving it into the
sub-projects
- rather than including config headers with <project>/include,

(windows). Instead use the LN_S variable exported by the Makefile (set to
"ln -s" on all Unixes and to "cp -p" on windows).
When we remove an executable use the correct extension for its name
(add $(EXEEXT) to the name).

debugger scheme described in
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2005/10/0214.php. This
makes our user-level debugger scheme much more vendor-independent
(although the "-tv" option will still work for backwards compatibility
-- it'll just be a synonum of "--debug").

The logs from this branch are much more descriptive than I will put
here (including a *really* long description from last night). Here's
the short version:
- fixed some broken implementations in ras and rmaps
- "orterun --host ..." now works and has clearly defined semantics
(this was the impetus for the branch and all these fixes -- LANL had
a requirement for --host to work for 1.0)
- there is still a little bit of cleanup left to do post-1.0 (we got
correct functionality for 1.0 -- we did not fix bad implementations
that still "work")
- rds/hostfile and ras/hostfile handshaking
- singleton node segment assignments in stage1
- remove the default hostfile (no need for it anymore with the
localhost ras component)
- clean up pls components to avoid duplicate ras mapping queries
- [possible] -bynode/-byslot being specific to a single app context

at the moment.
Also remove all references to --map, and (C, N) command line options in the
help file. These references will be put back in when these options are
implemented.
This commit was SVN r7574.
Have the ras_base_schedule_policy MCA parameter working once again. before it
would only do slot based allocation, even if the MCA parameter was set properly.
Currently you can specify to orterun a node allocation by either:
-mca ras_base_schedule_policy node
-bynode
and slot allocation (which is the default) by:
-mca ras_base_schedule_policy slot
-byslot

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, instead of the deprecated version.
* Work around dumbness in modern AC_INIT that requires the version
number to be set at autoconf time (instead of at configure time, as
it was before). Set the version number, minus the subversion r number,
at autoconf time. Override the internal variables to include the r
number (if needed) at configure time. Basically, the right thing
should always happen. The only place it might not is the version
reported as part of configure --help will not have an r number.
* Since AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE taks a list of options, no need to specify
them in all the Makefile.am files.
* Addes support for subdir-objects, meaning that object files are put
in the directory containing source files, even if the Makefile.am is
in another directory. This should start making it feasible to
reduce the number of Makefile.am files we have in the tree, which
will greatly reduce the time to run autogen and configure.

include any optimization flags
- Use these flags to always compile ompi/debuggers/* and orterun so
that parallel debuggers (such as Totalview) can always see the
debugging symbols (see comments in ompi/debuggers/Makefile.am and

session directory cleanup (among other things)
- When we get an abnormal exit in orterun (i.e., timeout expires and
we haven't gotten termination notices from all processes), print a
better message an exit in a better way (which includes session
directory cleanup)
- Fix tm and poe pls's to not exit() but rather propagate the error up
the stack (where relevant)

- Change orte_base_infrastructre to orte_infrastructre to conform with
ompi_info's needs
- Move MCA Param registration in ORTE to a centralized function that is
called first in orte_init_stage1
- Set the infrastructre flag as an argument to orte_init
- Adjust initalization functions to properly pass down the infrastructre
flag.

that were set on the command line. This was techinically exactly the
way the code was designed, but it certainly violated the Law of Least
Astonishment (even to its designer ;-) ). So now if you execute
something like this:
mpirun -mca pls_rsh_debug 1 -np 4 hello
You'll see debugging output from the rsh pls component, as you would
expect (this was not previously the case -- the MCA pls_rsh_debug
parame would be set to 1 in the 4 spawned hello processes, but *not*
in the orterun process).
More specifically, MCA parameters will be set in the orterun process
in the following cases:
- The new command line switch "--gmca" (or "-gmca") is used,
indicating that the MCA parameter is "global". --gmca also means
that that MCA parameter will be applied to all context app's. For
example:
mpirun -gmca foo bar -np 1 hello : -np 2 goodbye
The foo MCA param will be set in both the hello and goodbye
processes.
- If there is only one context app. For example:
mpirun -mca pls_rsh_debug 1 -np 4 hello
will set pls_rsh_debug to 1 in both the orterun process and the 4
spawned hello processes.
Also added a few more comments inside orterun to document a somewhat
confusing use of a state variable in a recursive case.
This commit was SVN r6764.
Somehow, in changing over to the new MCA interfaces, the "set" part of that logic got lost, so the singleton flag was always being set. This should repair some of the anomalous behavior seen recently where the local host was always being used for an application process.
