Ensure the returned exit status is non-zero if we fail to map
If no -np is given, but either -host and/or -hostfile was given, then error out with a message telling the user that this combination is not supported.
If -np is given, and -host is given with only one instance of each host, then default the #slots to the detected #pe's and enforce oversubscription rules.
If -np is given, and -host is given with more than one instance of a given host, then set the #slots for that host to the number of times it was given and enforce oversubscription rules. Alternatively, the #slots can be specified via "-host foo:N". I therefore believe that row #7 on Jeff's spreadsheet is incorrect.
With that one correction, this now passes all the given use-cases on that spreadsheet.
Make things behave under unmanaged allocations more like their managed cousins - if the #slots is given, then no-np shall fill things up.
Fixes#1344
* Clean up the DVM so it continues to run even when applications error out and we would ordinarily abort the daemons.
* Create a new errmgr component for the DVM to handle the differences.
* Cleanup the DVM state component.
* Add ORTE bindings directory and brief README
* Pass a local tool index around to match jobs.
* Pass the jobid on job completion.
* Fix initialization logic.
* Add framework for python wrapper.
* Fix terminate-with-non-zero-exit behavior so it properly terminates only the indicated procs, notifies orte-submit, and orte-dvm continues executing.
* Add some missing options to orte-dvm
* Fix a bug in -host processing that caused us to ignore the #slots designator. Add a new attribute to indicate "do not expand the DVM" when submitting job spawn requests.
* It actually makes no sense that we treat the termination of all children differently than terminating the children of a specific job - it only creates confusion over the difference in behavior. So terminate children the same way regardless.
Extend the cmd_line utility to easily allow layering of command line definitions
Catch up with ORTE interface change and make build more generic.
Disable "fixed dvm" logic for now.
Add another cmd_line function to merge a table of cmd line options with another one, reporting as errors any duplicate entries. Use this to allow orterun to reuse the orted_submit code
Fix the "fixed_dvm" logic by ensuring we reset num_new_daemons to zero. Also ensure that the nidmap is sent with the first job so the downstream daemons get the node info. Remove a duplicate cmd line entry in orterun.
Revise the DVM startup procedure to pass the nidmap only once, at the startup of the DVM. This reduces the overhead on each job launch and ensures that the nidmap doesn't get overwritten.
Add new commands to get_orted_comm_cmd_str().
Move ORTE command line options to orte_globals.[ch].
Catch up with extra orte_submit_init parameter.
Add example code.
Add documentation.
Bump version.
The nidmap and routing data must be updated prior to propagating the xcast or else the xcast will fail.
Fix the return code so it is something more expected when an error occurs. Ensure we get an error returned to us when we fail to launch for some reason. In this case, we will always get a launch_cb as we did indeed attempt to spawn it. The error code will be returned in the complete_cb.
Fix the return code from orte_submit_job - it was returning the tracker index instead of "success". Take advantage of ORTE's pretty-print capabilities to provide a nice error output explaining why we failed to launch. Ensure we always get a launch_cb when we fail to launch, but no complete_cb as the job never launched.
Extend the error reporting capability to job completion as well.
Add index parameter to orte_submit_job().
Add orte_job_cancel and implement ORTE_DAEMON_TERMINATE_JOB_CMD.
Factor out dvm termination.
Parse the terminate option at tool level.
Add error string for ORTE_ERR_JOB_CANCELLED.
Add some safeguards.
Cleanup and/of comments.
Enable the return.
Properly ORTE_DECLSPEC orte_submit_halt.
Add orte_submit_halt and orte_submit_cancel to interface.
Use the plm interface to terminate the job
This commit does two things. It removes checks for C99 required
headers (stdlib.h, string.h, signal.h, etc). Additionally it removes
definitions for required C99 types (intptr_t, int64_t, int32_t, etc).

Revamp the ORTE global data structures to reduce memory footprint and add new features. Add ability to control/set cpu frequency, though this can only be done if the sys admin has setup the system to support it (or you run as root).
This commit was SVN r31916.
For those nodes (and *only* those nodes) where the user does *not* specify a slot count, we will set the number of slots according to their direction: either to the number of cores, numas, sockets, or hwthreads. Otherwise, the slot count is set to 1.
Note that the default behavior remains unchanged: in the absence of any value for #slots, and in the absence of any directive to set #slots, we will set #slots=1.

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.

https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/ProcessPlacement
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.

(OMPI_ERR_* = OPAL_SOS_GET_ERR_CODE(ret)), since the return value could be a
SOS-encoded error. The OPAL_SOS_GET_ERR_CODE() takes in a SOS error and returns
back the native error code.
* Since OPAL_SUCCESS is preserved by SOS, also change all calls of the form
(OPAL_ERROR == ret) to (OPAL_SUCCESS != ret). We thus avoid having to
decode 'ret' to get the native error code.

- Delete unnecessary header files using
contrib/check_unnecessary_headers.sh after applying
patches, that include headers, being "lost" due to
inclusion in one of the now deleted headers...
In total 817 files are touched.
In ompi/mpi/c/ header files are moved up into the actual c-file,
where necessary (these are the only additional #include),
otherwise it is only deletions of #include (apart from the above
additions required due to notifier...)

Relative node syntax remains supported. Also, if you specify empty nodes, but have a specific empty node called out later, we will not include that node in the empties we add. I'll provide examples in the manpage.
This commit was SVN r19402.
After much work by Jeff and myself, and quite a lot of discussion, it has become clear that we simply cannot resolve the infinite loops caused by RML-involved subsystems calling orte_output. The original rationale for the change to orte_output has also been reduced by shifting the output of XML-formatted vs human readable messages to an alternative approach.
I have globally replaced the orte_output/ORTE_OUTPUT calls in the code base, as well as the corresponding .h file name. I have test compiled and run this on the various environments within my reach, so hopefully this will prove minimally disruptive.

= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.
This commit was SVN r18434.
Only one place used the user name field - session_dir, when formulating the name of the top-level directory. Accordingly, the code for getting the user's id has been moved to the session_dir code.
This commit was SVN r17926.
The change also:
- cleans up and simplifies the command line processing code
- adds an error output if more than one hostfile passed for a single app context
- gets rid of the superfluous orte_app_context_map_t type, and instead use a simple argv of -host options
