ba5498cdc6 Repair the MPI-2 dynamic operations. This includes:
1. repair of the linear and direct routed modules

2. repair of the ompi/pubsub/orte module to correctly init routes to the ompi-server, and correctly handle failure to correctly parse the provided ompi-server URI

3. modification of orterun to accept both "file" and "FILE" for designating where the ompi-server URI is to be found - purely a convenience feature

4. resolution of a message ordering problem during the connect/accept handshake that allowed the "send-first" proc to attempt to send to the "recv-first" proc before the HNP had actually updated its routes.

Let this be a further reminder to all - message ordering is NOT guaranteed in the OOB

5. Repair the ompi/dpm/orte module to correctly init routes during connect/accept.

Reminder to all: messages sent to procs in another job family (i.e., started by a different mpirun) are ALWAYS routed through the respective HNPs. As per the comments in orte/routed, this is REQUIRED to maintain connect/accept (where only the root proc on each side is capable of init'ing the routes), allow communication between mpirun's using different routing modules, and to minimize connections on tools such as ompi-server. It is all taken care of "under the covers" by the OOB to ensure that a route back to the sender is maintained, even when the different mpirun's are using different routed modules.

6. corrections in the orte/odls to ensure proper identification of daemons participating in a dynamic launch

7. corrections in build/nidmap to support update of an existing nidmap during dynamic launch

8. corrected implementation of the update_arch function in the ESS, along with consolidation of a number of ESS operations into base functions for easier maintenance. The ability to support info from multiple jobs was added, although we don't currently do so - this will come later to support further fault recovery strategies

9. minor updates to several functions to remove unnecessary and/or no longer used variables and envar's, add some debugging output, etc.

10. addition of a new macro ORTE_PROC_IS_DAEMON that resolves to true if the provided proc is a daemon

There is still more cleanup to be done for efficiency, but this at least works.

Tested on single-node Mac, multi-node SLURM via odin. Tests included connect/accept, publish/lookup/unpublish, comm_spawn, comm_spawn_multiple, and singleton comm_spawn.

Fixes ticket #1256

9613b3176c Effectively revert the orte_output system and return to direct use of opal_output at all levels. Retain the orte_show_help subsystem to allow aggregation of show_help messages at the HNP.
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.

e7ecd56bd2 This commit represents a bunch of work on a Mercurial side branch. As
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.

3e55fe6f6d Fold in the revised modex scheme. Move the ompi_proc_t modex portions to the RTE level since the daemons already have that info. Provide each process with the equivalent of a "nidmap" - both a map of what nodes are in the job, and a map of which node each process is on. This enables the use of static ports, though that hasn't been turned "on" in this commit.
Update the rsh tree spawn capability so we spawn the next wave of daemons before launching our own local procs.

Add an ability to encode nodenames for large clusters with contiguous node name numbering schemes - this allows communication of all node names in a few bytes instead of tens-of-bytes/node.

d70e2e8c2b Merge the ORTE devel branch into the main trunk. Details of what this means will be circulated separately.
Remains to be tested to ensure everything came over cleanly, so please continue to withhold commits a little longer
