devel list, it ''is'' within in the spirit of MPI to allow
MPI_REQUEST_NULL to be passed to MPI_REQUEST_GET_STATUS. I filed a
ticket proposal with MPI-2.2 to make this officially accepted:
https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/ticket/137
Plus, r20537 didn't revert out all of the machinery for allowing
MPI_REQUEST_NULL or inactive requests, anyway. So this commit simply
removes the parameter check that was added in r20537, and we're back
to where we were before this whole conversation. :-)

* New "op" MPI layer framework
* Addition of the MPI_REDUCE_LOCAL proposed function (for MPI-2.2)
= Op framework =
Add new "op" framework in the ompi layer. This framework replaces the
hard-coded MPI_Op back-end functions for (MPI_Op, MPI_Datatype) tuples
for pre-defined MPI_Ops, allowing components and modules to provide
the back-end functions. The intent is that components can be written
to take advantage of hardware acceleration (GPU, FPGA, specialized CPU
instructions, etc.). Similar to other frameworks, components are
intended to be able to discover at run-time if they can be used, and
if so, elect themselves to be selected (or disqualify themselves from
selection if they cannot run). If specialized hardware is not
available, there is a default set of functions that will automatically
be used.
This framework is ''not'' used for user-defined MPI_Ops.
The new op framework is similar to the existing coll framework, in
that the final set of function pointers that are used on any given
intrinsic MPI_Op can be a mixed bag of function pointers, potentially
coming from multiple different op modules. This allows for hardware
that only supports some of the operations, not all of them (e.g., a
GPU that only supports single-precision operations).
All the hard-coded back-end MPI_Op functions for (MPI_Op,
MPI_Datatype) tuples still exist, but unlike coll, they're in the
framework base (vs. being in a separate "basic" component) and are
automatically used if no component is found at runtime that provides a
module with the necessary function pointers.
There is an "example" op component that will hopefully be useful to
those writing meaningful op components. It is currently
.ompi_ignore'd so that it doesn't impinge on other developers (it's
somewhat chatty in terms of opal_output() so that you can tell when
its functions have been invoked). See the README file in the example
op component directory. Developers of new op components are
encouraged to look at the following wiki pages:

= MPI_REDUCE_LOCAL =
Part of the MPI-2.2 proposal listed here:
https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/ticket/24
is to add a new function named MPI_REDUCE_LOCAL. It is very easy to
implement, so I added it (also because it makes testing the op
framework pretty easy -- you can do it in serial rather than via
parallel reductions). There's even a man page!

I'm unable to split it in two parts, my patch and Edgar's one. So I just update
copyright information for both of us.
What this patch do:
- it use the unexpected queue create by commit r19562 to dispatch the
unexpected message to the right communicator (once this communicator
is created and initialized).
- delay the PML comm_add until we have the context_id for the new communicator.
- only do the PML comm_add on processes that really belong to the new
communicator. Please read the lengthy comment in the source code for the
reason behind this.

unconditionally, which can result in a flood of messages to the user
if all MPI processes invoke abort. Additionally, some users were
confused because they saw the MPI_ABORT opal_output() messages from
''some'' MPI processes, but not ''all'' of them (despite the fact that
every MPI process supposedly invoked MPI_ABORT). The reason is that
calling MPI_ABORT triggers ORTE to kill all MPI processes, so it's a
race condition as to whether a) all MPI processes actually invoke
MPI_ABORT, and/or b) whether every process is able to opal_output()
before they are killed.
This commit does two simple things:
* Now use orte_show_help() for the MPI_ABORT message, so they are
aggregated.
* Add a note in the message that calling MPI_ABORT kills all
processes, so you might not see all output, yadda yadda yadda.

for the F90 type create functions to the requirements of MPI 2.1 standard.
Advice to implementors. An application may often repeat a call to
MPI_TYPE_CREATE_F90_xxxx with the same combination of (xxxx,p,r).
The application is not allowed to free the returned predefined, unnamed
datatype handles. To prevent the creation of a potentially huge amount of
handles, the MPI implementation should return the same datatype handle for
the same (REAL/COMPLEX/INTEGER,p,r) combination. Checking for the
combination (p,r) in the preceding call to MPI_TYPE_CREATE_F90_xxxx and
using a hash-table to find formerly generated handles should limit the
overhead of finding a previously generated datatype with same combination
of (xxxx,p,r). (End of advice to implementors.)

After much work by Jeff and myself, and quite a lot of discussion, it has become clear that we simply cannot resolve the infinite loops caused by RML-involved subsystems calling orte_output. The original rationale for the change to orte_output has also been reduced by shifting the output of XML-formatted vs human readable messages to an alternative approach.
I have globally replaced the orte_output/ORTE_OUTPUT calls in the code base, as well as the corresponding .h file name. I have test compiled and run this on the various environments within my reach, so hopefully this will prove minimally disruptive.

such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly
long.
= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.
