- the registration array is now global instead of one by BTL.
- each framework have to declare the entries in the registration array reserved. Then
it have to define the internal way of sharing (or not) these entries between all
components. As an example, the PML will not share as there is only one active PML
at any moment, while the BTLs will have to. The tag is 8 bits long, the first 3
are reserved for the framework while the remaining 5 are use internally by each
framework.
- The registration function is optional. If a BTL do not provide such function,
nothing happens. However, in the case where such function is provided in the BTL
structure, it will be called by the BML, when a tag is registered.
Now, it's time for the second step... Converting OB1 from a switch based PML to an
active message one.

The problem is that in the case of threaded builds for every fifo
a head and tail lock will be allocated inside the shared memory
segment and the ptr is stored inside the fifo. In the case that the sm backend
file will be mapped in all processes at the same address (mostly the
case for non-thread builds) this is fine, but in the cases when the
processes map the file at different addresses this addresses cause big
trouble in other processes than the one that allocted the locks.
Therefore the send lock addresses have to be recalculated to match
the local mapping of the processes that use them.

This is required to tighten up the BTL semantics. Ordering is not guaranteed,
but, if the BTL returns a order tag in a descriptor (other than
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER) then we may request another descriptor that will obey
ordering w.r.t. to the other descriptor.
This will allow sane behavior for RDMA networks, where local completion of an
RDMA operation on the active side does not imply remote completion on the
passive side. If we send a FIN message after local completion and the FIN is
not ordered w.r.t. the RDMA operation then badness may occur as the passive
side may now try to deregister the memory and the RDMA operation may still be
pending on the passive side.
Note that this has no impact on networks that don't suffer from this
limitation as the ORDER tag can simply always be specified as
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER.

We eagerly send data up to btl_*_eager_limit with the match
Upon ACK of the MATCH we start using send/receives of size
btl_*_max_send_size up to the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset
After the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset we begin using RDMA writes of
size btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size.
Now, on a per message basis we only use the above protocol if the
message is larger than btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size
btl_*_eager_limit - > same
btl_*_max_send_size -> same
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset -> btl_*_min_rdma_size
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size -> btl_*_max_rdma_size
btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size is new..
This patch also moves all BTL common parameters initialisation into
btl_base_mca.c file.

are passing through circular buffer. The rank that receives ACK doesn't need
to look into data it received and this is a big win since this data is not in
the cache of the rank's CPU. (Note that we can use low bits of pointers because
free_list always return pointers aligned at least to cache line size).

* have the mpool size be based on MCW, not num procs
in other jobs we know about. Solves the problem of
the spawned job having a much bigger than needed
sm file
* Can't assume that "me" is in the list of procs
passed to addprocs, so need to use slightly different
logic and not go through all of add procs unless
there's a proc in my job that isn't me.
This seems to greatly improve the situation, although
there still seems to be more of a slowdown through
MPI_INIT for the children (if there are more than one
child) than MPI_INIT for the parent if there are 'n'
children compared to 'n' parents. Hopefully that
made sense ;)

allocation logic is completely done outside the data-type engine (in the PML) there is
no need for any special case inside the data-type engine. There is less arguments for
the ompi_convertor_pack and ompi_convertor_unpack as well (the last field free_after is
not required anymore as there is no memory allocated in the engine itself). This change
affect all components using datatypes. I test most of them, but it might happens that I
miss some ... If it's the case please let me know (don't shoot the pianist!!).

all platforms. The only exceptions (and I will not deal with them
anytime soon) are on Windows:
- the write functions which require the length to be an int when it's
a size_t on all UNIX variants.
- all iovec manipulation functions where the iov_len is again an int
when it's a size_t on most of the UNIXes.
As these only happens on Windows, so I think we're set for now :)

constrained:
* Make sure we always have a number of eager fragments available
that scales with the number of processes communicating with
a given proc over shared memory
* Use FREE_LIST_GET instead of FREE_LIST_WAIT to return an
error to the PML when resource exhaustion occurs
* Don't dereference the frag during alloc unless we're sure
it's not NULL

- Don't double increment n_local_procs when calculating the peer rank

Something else is still wrong; if mmap() returns a different base
address, things don't work (i.e., segv or hang forever when you try to
send a message). More specifically, the bootstrapping now seems to
correctly handle the case when mmap() base addresses are different,
but the message passing does *not* -- it always assumes that the
mmap() base addresses are the same.
Still working on the fix for that -- want to checkpoint what has been
done so far to facilitate working on different machines...
