This completes the minor changes required to the PLS components. Basically, there is a small change required to the parameter list of the orted cmd functions. I caught and did it for xcpu and poe, in addition to the components listed in my email - so I think that only leaves xgrid unconverted.
The orted fail-to-start mods will also make changes in the PLS components, but those can be localized so they come in one at a time.
This commit was SVN r14499.
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.

Collect the base 'orted' command line into a base function since most of the
PLS components were duplicating this code. Add AMCA parameter command line
component to the base set.
Add Aggregate MCA parameter support to the following PLS components:
- gridengine
- process
- slurm
- poe
- tm
Improve support for 'rsh' component.
Did/could not support the following components:
- bproc
- proxy
- xcpu
- cnos
- xgrid
The above components had peculiar needs that made it non-trivial to add an
option. The authors of these components need to help in supporting this
new option.
I was only able to test the SLURM and RSH components due to system availability.
The others should work without problem.

The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 976 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/976
Tested this functionality quite a bit more and made some fixes:
* Print far fewer help messages
* Fix one additional deadlock upon error
* Change some ORTE_LOG messages to silent (because they're not
errors)
* Some code got re-indented, sorry...
Discussed and reviewed with Ralph.
This commit was SVN r13375.
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.
Modify the RMAPS framework so we eliminate communicating a map to a backend node when certain attributes are set. The proxy functions are now implemented in the base, and a check made for HNP/non-HNP operation made in the map_jobs function prior to execution.
This commit was SVN r12619.
Note that Bproc won't support this operation, so we just ignore the --reuse-daemons directive.
I'm afraid I don't understand the POE and XGrid environments well enough to attempt the necessary modifications.
Also, please note that XGrid support has been broken on the trunk. I don't understand the code syntax well enough to make the required changes to that PLS component, so it won't compile at the moment. I'm hoping Brian has a few minutes to fix it after SC.
This commit was SVN r12614.
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.
1. use non-blocking sends to transmit commands (this was actually done in a prior commit)
2. have an "ack" message sent back from the orted when it completes the command
The latter item is the new one here. With my prior commit, it was possible for the HNP to move on to other things before the orted had completed its command. This caused the HNP to occassionally exit before the orted, thus generating "lost connection" errors. With this change, we retain the parallel nature of the command communications, but still hold the HNP at that point until the orteds are done.
Best of both worlds.
This commit was SVN r12605.
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.
Add some debugger output to the ODLS default component.
Modify the orted command communication system so that it is done via non-blocking sends. This removes the linearity of the transmission and improves the response time.
This commit was SVN r12585.
Fix the persistent daemon problem where it was exiting when a job completed. Problem was that the persistent daemon would order the job daemons to exit. They would then send an 'ack' back to the persistent daemon - but the ack consisted of an echo of the "exit" command, which was recv'd by the wrong listener who treated it as a properly sent cmd....and exited.
This commit was SVN r12243.
This patch will cause a problem for cnos, however, as there we want to specifically tell the backends to be "null". I'm working on that issue.
This commit was SVN r12225.
I have tested on rsh, slurm, bproc, and tm. Bproc continues to have a problem (will be asking for help there).
Gridengine compiles but I cannot test (believe it likely will run).
Poe and xgrid compile to the extent they can without the proper include files.
This commit was SVN r12059.
1. PLS finalize was not being called. Now ensure that happens during orte_finalize.
2. Errmgr proxies were sending their messages to the wrong tag - typical cut/paste error.
This commit was SVN r11891.
- use the OPAL functions for PATH and environment variables
- make all headers C++ friendly
- no unamed structures
- no implicit cast.
Plus a full implementation for the orte_wait functions.

different macros, one for each project. Therefore, now we have OPAL_DECLSPEC,
ORTE_DECLSPEC and OMPI_DECLSPEC. Please use them based on the sub-project.
This commit was SVN r11270.
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.
This commit was SVN r11228.
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.

with an error status (< 0) then the req buffer is NULL. Put checks around the
OBJ_RELEASE(req) calls so that we don't try to release NULL :/
This commit was SVN r10641.
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.
