long-standing bugs (see trac ticket list below). They're currently
somewhat obscure bugs, but are becoming much more relevant in a world
where OpenFabrics devices fail and you replace them with a newer model
(i.e., the cluster is homogeneous... ''except'' for where you had to
replace one or two OpenFabrics devices, and the same model is no
longer available).
This commit includes a '''lengthy''' comment (that we spent a lot of
time writing!) about what exactly it does and does not do. The
previous code was rather short and '''incredibly''' subtle. The new
code is slightly longer, but is both much more explicit and much more
painstakingly documented.
This commit fixes multiple trac tickets. The real one that we fix is
#1707; the others are fixed as a side-effect. In short: fixing #1707
prevents Bad Things from happening later in the startup sequence.
Fixes trac:1707, #2164, #1574.

Add a ''map_bynode'' info key to determine if the job to be started by comm_spawn* should be mapped by node or by slot. Default is to map according to the default policy set when the parent job was started.

In CMake 2.6 and earlier, this function add dependencies for targets and also link the target libraries automatically, but in CMake 2.8,this behavior has been changed, i.e. it will only add the dependencies but no link, which will cause linking errors at compilation time.

than can be used (e.g., number of on-node peers), that no additional
room is set aside for those FIFOs that will never be created. This
makes it easier to have dedicated FIFOs: just set btl_sm_num_fifos
to be very large rather than setting it to be the local number of
procs. In practice, we ask for extra headroom anyhow, so this change
generally won't matter.

other request-using frameworks.
- Rather than having mpi/c/* functions allocate requests explicitly,
pass the MPI_Request* down to the I/O component and have it
perform the allocation.
- While the I/O base provides a base request which can be used,
it is not required and all request management occurs within
the component.
- Push progress management into the component, rather than having it
happen in the base. Progress functions are now easily registered,
and not all (ie, the one existing) components use progress functions
in any rational way.
ROMIO switched to generalized requests instead of MPIO_Requests many
moons ago, and Open MPI now uses ROMIO's generalized requests, so there
is no reason to wrap those requests (which are OMPI requests) in another
level of request.
Now the file function passes the MPI_Request* to the ROMIO component,
which passes it to the underlying ROMIO function, which calls
MPI_Grequest_start to create an OMPI request, which is what gets set
as the request to the user. Much cleaner.
This patch has two motivations. One, a whole heck of a lot of code
just got removed, and request handling is now much cleaner for I/O
components. Two, by adding support for Argonne's proposed generalized
request extensions, we can allow ROMIO to provide async I/O through
generalized requests, which we couldn't rationally do in the old
setup due to the crazy request completion rules.

use the new Automake "silent rules" if available.
If you are using an Automake prior to v1.11, you won't see the new
silent rules -- it will automatically default back to the "verbose"
rules.
Note, too, that even with these changes, you can enable the verbose
"make all" output in one of two ways:
1. Add "V=1" to your "make" command line
{{{
shell$ make all V=1
}}}
2. Add "--disable-silent-rules" to your "configure" command line:
{{{
shell$ ./configure --disable-silent-rules ...
}}}
The one down side of using the silent rules by default is that we'll
get less diagnostic information when users send their build logs. I
think we should update the web page to request that users send build
logs of "make V=1", but I'm guessing that not everyone will do it.
Note that I did ''not'' silent-ize the libltdl build (which is a dozen
or so files in the beginning of the build) because we wholly import
libltdl at autogen time. I therefore didn't want to patch libltdl
(further) after importing it a) to remain as forward- compatible as
possible, and b) patching the imported libltdl build system might be
tricky in terms of timestamps / dependencies. So those dozen-or-so
files will still be "verbose", but the rest of the files in OMPI will
be "silent".
