OMPI
and a language agnostic part in OPAL. The convertor is completely
moved into OPAL. This offers several benefits as described in RFC
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2009/07/6387.php
namely:
- Fewer basic types (int* and float* types, boolean and wchar
- Fixing naming scheme to ompi-nomenclature.
- Usability outside of the ompi-layer.
- Due to the fixed nature of simple opal types, their information is
completely
known at compile time and therefore constified
- With fewer datatypes (22), the actual sizes of bit-field types may be
reduced
from 64 to 32 bits, allowing reorganizing the opal_datatype
structure, eliminating holes and keeping data required in convertor
(upon send/recv) in one cacheline...
This has implications to the convertor-datastructure and other parts
of the code.
- Several performance tests have been run, the netpipe latency does not
change with
this patch on Linux/x86-64 on the smoky cluster.
- Extensive tests have been done to verify correctness (no new
regressions) using:
1. mpi_test_suite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and
ompi-ddt:
a. running both trunk and ompi-ddt resulted in no differences
(except for MPI_SHORT_INT and MPI_TYPE_MIX_LB_UB do now run
correctly).
b. with --enable-memchecker and running under valgrind (one buglet
when run with static found in test-suite, commited)
2. ibm testsuite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and ompi-ddt:
all passed (except for the dynamic/ tests failed!! as trunk/MTT)
3. compilation and usage of HDF5 tests on Jaguar using PGI and
PathScale compilers.
4. compilation and usage on Scicortex.
- Please note, that for the heterogeneous case, (-m32 compiled
binaries/ompi), neither
ompi-trunk, nor ompi-ddt branch would successfully launch.

well..)
- As Jeff suggested, for m4 macros, dont use _ OPAL, but
rather OPAL_ prefix
- Set the variable before AC_SUBST, so that replacement happens
in f77 header-file, too.

MPI_MAX_PROCESSOR_NAME
MPI_MAX_ERROR_STRING
MPI_MAX_OBJECT_NAME
MPI_MAX_INFO_KEY
MPI_MAX_INFO_VAL
MPI_MAX_PORT_NAME
MPI_MAX_DATAREP_STRING
Defaults stay as theyr currently are -- and now give an explanation on the
min/max values being used in a central place...
m4-macro _OPAL_WITH_OPTION_MIN_MAX_VALUE may be benefical in other parts
of the configure system.
- We need some of these in the lower level OPAL for an upcoming commit!
All other levels base their values on them.

Thereby move

functionality (per MPI-2.1). This warning can be toggled using
--enable-mpi-interface-warning (default OFF), but can be
selectively turned on passing
mpicc -DOMPI_WANT_MPI_INTERFACE_WARNING
Using icc, gcc < 4.5, warnings (such as in mpi2basic_tests) show:
type_vector.c:83: warning: ‘MPI_Type_hvector’ is deprecated
(declared at /home/../usr/include/mpi.h:1379)
Using gcc-4.5 (gcc-svn) these show up as:
type_vector.c:83: warning: ‘MPI_Type_hvector’ is deprecated
(declared at /home/../usr/include/mpi.h:1379):
MPI_Type_hvector is superseded by MPI_Type_create_hvector in MPI-2.0
Jeff and I propose to turn such warnings on with Open MPI-1.7 by default.
- Detection of user-level compiler is handled using the preprocessor
checks of GASnet's other/portable_platform.h (thanks to Paul Hargrove
and Dan Bonachea) adapted into ompi/include/mpi_portable_platform.h
(see comments).
The OMPI-build time detection is output (Familyname and Version)
with ompi_info.
This functionality (actually any upcoming __attribute__) are turned
off, if a different compiler (and version) is being detected.
- Note, that any warnings regarding (user-compiler!=build-compiler)
as discussed in the RFC are _not_ included for now.
- Tested on Linux with --enable-mpi-interface-warning on
Linux, gcc-4.5 (deprecated w/ specific msg)
Linux, gcc-4.3 (deprecated w/o specific msg)
Linux, pathscale 3.1 (deprecated w/o specific msg)
Linux, icc-11.0 (deprecated w/o specific msg)
Linux, PGI-8.0.6 accepts __deprecated__ but does not issue a warning,
further investigation needed...
