1. implement and enable the non-described buffer operations. I will send out a more detailed explanation separately. However, this mode of operation (which is now the default) significantly reduces message size during startup. If you want the described buffers, set the mca param "-mca dss_describe_buffer 1".
2. revise the xcast system to support both linear and binomial tree broadcast methods. Since we are seeing scenarios where the binomiall tree can cause problems, I have made the linear method the default. To run with the binomial tree, set the mca param "-mca oob_xcast_mode binomial".
3. add some detailed timing reports to the xcast operation. These are enabled via "-mca oob_xcast_timing 1".
4. add some more unit tests for the dss and gpr (focused on support for the non-described buffer)

protocol when multiple NICS are available between 2 peers. The fix force
the FIN message to take exactly the same path as the fragment it describe
(i.e. same path means same BTL). Otherwise, the FIN can be received by
the peer before the RDMA complete and the request will get freed
too early.

- consistent error message when something fails (via BTL_ERROR macro)
- decrease the number of jumps.
- cleanup some parts of the code.

* Always invoke the error handler on MPI_COMM_WORLD for
invalid windows (except in win_create, which should
instead be on the given communicator).
* Allow get_errhandler in addition to set_errhandler
on MPI_WIN_NULL

The temporary solution is to switch into EV_NONBLOCK mode earlier (right after the mx_connect loop) so that there isn't a giant slowdown when processes enter the stage gate 2 barrier before other proesses. They will now not block in the event library for any period of time, which appears to have a 50% speedup when running at > 64 procs.

* Check that the C++, Fortran 77, and Objective C comilers emit code
that can link against object files emitted by the C compiler.
Moves some built / run time errors to configure time, which is
nice and should help with the debugging
* Remove unneeded -F option when building the XGrid components,
which started causing problems with LT 2.0.
* Try to use the XGridFoundation library, rather than just seeing
if we can give -framework XGridFoundation. Should make the
test slightly more accurate
* Don't assume XGrid is unavailable on 64 bit platforms, as that
won't be true on Leopard
* Require AM 1.10 or newer if using AC 2.60 or newer, so that
we don't have a split of AC supporting Objective C and AM
not doing so

Ralph identified the problem, I tracked down ''where'' the fd was
being closed, and Brian figured out ''why'' (and the fix).
What was happening is that a remote process was closing its
stdout/stderr and therefore sending a 0-byte IOF message to mpirun.
mpirun, in turn, closed the iof endpoint associated with that stream
(i.e., stdout/stderr). IOF does this to handle the case where
mpirun's stdin is closed -- this therefore causes the stdin on all the
ORTE-started processes to have their stdin's closed as well.
So the workaround here is to check that if we get a 0-byte IOF message
on a sink (indicating a remote closure), and if that sink is the
special stdout or stderr stream, don't actually close anything in the
local process.

because they are in ORTE, not OMPI. Also, remove the ORTE_PROCESS_NAME macros
in iof base as they are duplicates of the ones that were in ns_types, which
meant that bad things happened if you changed what an orte_process_name_t
looked like.

the same time, remove some of the MPI-related options from OPAL:
- provide mechanism to change at runtime whether sched_yield() should
be called when the progress engine is idle
- provide mechanism for changing the rate at which the event engine
is called when there are "no" users of the event engine (ie, when
using MPI but not TCP)
- fix some function names in the progress engine to better match
their intended use (and remove MPI naming scheme)
- remove progress_mpi_enable / progress_mpi_disable because
we can now use the functions to set the sched_yield and
tick rate interfaces
- rename opal_progress_events() to opal_progress_set_event_flag()
because the first really isn't descriptive of what the function
does and I always got confused by it

Fix comm_spawn by singletons. orte_init does some voodoo to let the system know about localhost when we are a singleton. This includes allocating it so that any comm_spawn'd children can use their parent "allocation". Unfortunately, the fix that bproc needs (due to that smr filling up the node segment!) causes the singleton startup to fail. The fix is to just have the singleton startup force an allocation of its localhost.
Only issue here is: what happens if we are in a persistent universe? The singleton will now overwrite any prior info on slots used on localhost by other jobs (won't affect anything else). The answer, of course, is to do something more intelligent - lookup localhost on the registry and just update its info instead of overwriting it.
Something for another day (or month....or year)
This commit was SVN r12644.
We were burned again by the fact that the bproc state monitor creates entries on the node segment for *all* the nodes in the cluster when it is opened during orte_init. As a result, the bjs allocator was never being called, and the system merrily assumed that *all* nodes in the cluster had been allocated to it.
To fix this, I removed a test that had been inserted into the allocation procedure that checked for a non-zero node segment. This was an old artifact - the RAS components already know that they are not to overwrite any existing node segment entries (at least, bproc does - I will check the others. For now, I just want to save the bproc fix on this machine).
