We recognize that this means other users of OPAL will need to "wrap" the opal_process_name_t if they desire to abstract it in some fashion. This is regrettable, and we are looking at possible alternatives that might mitigate that requirement. Meantime, however, we have to put the needs of the OMPI community first, and are taking this step to restore hetero and SPARC support.
If there are no usnic BTL modules, then just avoid sending any modex
message at all (other BTLs do this; it's safe to do).
The change is smaller than it looks: I added a "if 0 ==..." check at
the top to return immediately if there are no BTL modules. Then I
removed some now-unnecessary conditionals and un-indented as
appropriate.
Fixes#248
These two macros set the prefix for the OPAL and ORTE libraries,
respectively. Specifically, the OPAL library will be named
libPREFIXopen-pal.la and the ORTE library will be named
libPREFIXopen-rte.la.
These macros must be called, even if the prefix argument is empty.
The intent is that Open MPI will call these macros with an empty
prefix, but other projects (such as ORCM) will call these macros with
a non-empty prefix. For example, ORCM libraries can be named
liborcm-open-pal.la and liborcm-open-rte.la.
This scheme is necessary to allow running Open MPI applications under
systems that use their own versions of ORTE and OPAL. For example,
when running MPI applications under ORTE, if the ORTE and OPAL
libraries between OMPI and ORCM are not identical (which, because they
are released at different times, are likely to be different), we need
to ensure that the OMPI applications link against their ORTE and OPAL
libraries, but the ORCM executables link against their ORTE and OPAL
libraries.
Properly setup the opal_process_info structure early in the initialization procedure. Define the local hostname right at the beginning of opal_init so all parts of opal can use it. Overlay that during orte_init as the user may choose to remove fqdn and strip prefixes during that time. Setup the job_session_dir and other such info immediately when it becomes available during orte_init.
Per #4874, code review revealed a possible race condition in the
module struct and the connectivity agent. Move the setup of the
connectivity agent listener until the module struct has been fully
setup.

WHAT: Merge the PMIx branch into the devel repo, creating a new
OPAL “lmix” framework to abstract PMI support for all RTEs.
Replace the ORTE daemon-level collectives with a new PMIx
server and update the ORTE grpcomm framework to support
server-to-server collectives
WHY: We’ve had problems dealing with variations in PMI implementations,
and need to extend the existing PMI definitions to meet exascale
requirements.
WHEN: Mon, Aug 25
WHERE: https://github.com/rhc54/ompi-svn-mirror.git
Several community members have been working on a refactoring of the current PMI support within OMPI. Although the APIs are common, Slurm and Cray implement a different range of capabilities, and package them differently. For example, Cray provides an integrated PMI-1/2 library, while Slurm separates the two and requires the user to specify the one to be used at runtime. In addition, several bugs in the Slurm implementations have caused problems requiring extra coding.
All this has led to a slew of #if’s in the PMI code and bugs when the corner-case logic for one implementation accidentally traps the other. Extending this support to other implementations would have increased this complexity to an unacceptable level.
Accordingly, we have:
* created a new OPAL “pmix” framework to abstract the PMI support, with separate components for Cray, Slurm PMI-1, and Slurm PMI-2 implementations.
* Replaced the current ORTE grpcomm daemon-based collective operation with an integrated PMIx server, and updated the grpcomm APIs to provide more flexible, multi-algorithm support for collective operations. At this time, only the xcast and allgather operations are supported.
* Replaced the current global collective id with a signature based on the names of the participating procs. The allows an unlimited number of collectives to be executed by any group of processes, subject to the requirement that only one collective can be active at a time for a unique combination of procs. Note that a proc can be involved in any number of simultaneous collectives - it is the specific combination of procs that is subject to the constraint
* removed the prior OMPI/OPAL modex code
* added new macros for executing modex send/recv to simplify use of the new APIs. The send macros allow the caller to specify whether or not the BTL supports async modex operations - if so, then the non-blocking “fence” operation is used, if the active PMIx component supports it. Otherwise, the default is a full blocking modex exchange as we currently perform.
* retained the current flag that directs us to use a blocking fence operation, but only to retrieve data upon demand

It turns out that we ''can'' get to the endpoint destructor with the
endpoint still on the "endpoints needing ACKs" list. So if it's on
the list, remove it first, and then DESTRUCT the opal_list_item_t.
This prevents an assert() fail in debug builds. We'd like to let this
soak over the weekend.

Rarely -- but it happens -- the connectivity client gets ECONNREFUSED
because the connectivity agent listen() backlog is too small. Rather
than put in a loop on the client side, take the simple way out for
now: increase the backlog size to an arbitrarily-large number.

Make the del_procs, module finalize, and endpoint destructors be the
same between trunk and v1.8, with one exception: the very beginning of
v1.8 module_finalize calls del_procs for each proc to simulate/pretend

Fixes an assertion failure in --enable-debug builds and SEGVs in normal
builds.
I'm not 100% sure I like this model, but it at least seems to be
consistent. Some variation on this scheme will need to be adapted to
the trunk, where usnic_del_procs() is called by the PML instead of
internally in usnic_finalize().
A related bug (but with different mechanics) is #4832.

Previously, the connectivity agent was pretty dumb: it took whatever
pings it got and ACKed them. Then we added an agent check to ensured
that the ping actually came from the source interface that it said it
came from. Now we add another check such that when a ping is received
on interface X that corresponds to usnic module Y, we ensure that the
source interface of the ping is on the all_endpoints list for module Y
(i.e., module Y expects to be able to talk to that peer interface).
This detects cases where peers have come to different conclusions
about which interfaces should be used to communicate (which is bad!).
This usually reflects a network misconfiguration.

Ensure that incoming "ping" messages came from the IP address that
they think they came from. If they don't, drop them (because it is
probably routing error), which will likely eventually cause the
connectivity checker to timeout, and therefore cause the job to abort.

Update compat.h to only handle compatability between v1.7/v1.8 and

Currently use a hard-coded constant for the MCW size (i.e.,
MPI_COMM_WORLD size) for some initialization values in the v1.9/2.0
series; still need to figure out something better there.

WHAT: Open our low-level communication infrastructure by moving all necessary components (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool) down in OPAL
All the components required for inter-process communications are currently deeply integrated in the OMPI layer. Several groups/institutions have express interest in having a more generic communication infrastructure, without all the OMPI layer dependencies. This communication layer should be made available at a different software level, available to all layers in the Open MPI software stack. As an example, our ORTE layer could replace the current OOB and instead use the BTL directly, gaining access to more reactive network interfaces than TCP. Similarly, external software libraries could take advantage of our highly optimized AM (active message) communication layer for their own purpose. UTK with support from Sandia, developped a version of Open MPI where the entire communication infrastucture has been moved down to OPAL (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool). Most of the moved components have been updated to match the new schema, with few exceptions (mainly BTLs where I have no way of compiling/testing them). Thus, the completion of this RFC is tied to being able to completing this move for all BTLs. For this we need help from the rest of the Open MPI community, especially those supporting some of the BTLs. A non-exhaustive list of BTLs that qualify here is: mx, portals4, scif, udapl, ugni, usnic.
