This commit does two things. It removes checks for C99 required
headers (stdlib.h, string.h, signal.h, etc). Additionally it removes
definitions for required C99 types (intptr_t, int64_t, int32_t, etc).

This commit fixes a typo in mca_btl_vader_progress_endpoints where
OPAL_THREAD_LOCK was used when OPAL_THREAD_UNLOCK was intended.

This commit fixes several vagrind errors. Included:
- installdirs did not correctly reinitialize all pointers to NULL
at close. This causes valgrind errors on a subsequent call to
opal_init_tool.
- several opal strings were leaked by opal_deregister_params which
was setting them to NULL instead of letting them be freed by the
MCA variable system.
- move opal_net_init to AFTER the variable system is initialized and
opal's MCA variables have been registered. opal_net_init uses a
variable registered by opal_register_params!
- do not leak ompi_mpi_main_thread when it is allocated by
MPI_T_init_thread.
- do not overwrite ompi_mpi_main_thread if it is already set (by
MPI_T_init_thread).
- mca_base_var: read_files was overwritting mca_base_var_file_list
even if it was non-NULL.
- mca_base_var: set all file global variables to initial states on
finalize.
- btl/vader: decrement enumerator reference count to ensure that it
is freed.

On 32-bit architectures loads/stores of fast box headers may take
multiple instructions. This can lead to a data race between the
sender/receiver when reading/writing the sequence number. This can
lead to a situation where the receiver could process incomplete
data. To fix the issue this commit re-orders the fast box header to
put the sequence number and the tag in the same 32-bits to ensure they
are always loaded/stored together.

Use of the old ompi_free_list_t and ompi_free_list_item_t is
deprecated. These classes will be removed in a future commit.
This commit updates the entire code base to use opal_free_list_t and
opal_free_list_item_t.
Notes:
OMPI_FREE_LIST_*_MT -> opal_free_list_* (uses opal_using_threads ())

This commit adds an owner file in each of the component directories
for each framework. This allows for a simple script to parse
the contents of the files and generate, among other things, tables
to be used on the project's wiki page. Currently there are two
"fields" in the file, an owner and a status. A tool to parse
the files and generate tables for the wiki page will be added
in a subsequent commit.
The send inline optimization uses the btl_sendi function to achieve lower
latency and higher message rates. Before this commit BTLs were allowed to
assume the descriptor was non-NULL and were expected to return a valid
descriptor if the send could not be completed using btl_sendi. This
behavior was fine until the usage of btl_sendi was changed in ob1. This
commit allows the caller to specify NULL for the descriptor. The affected
btls have been updated to handle this case.

Use the pkg-config related m4 functions to find out where
Cray's xpmem.h and libxpmem are located on a system.
With this commit, there is no longer any need to have to
explicitly indicate an xpmem install location on the configure
line, at least for Cray systems running CLE 4.X and 5.X.
value NULL for the descriptor
The send inline optimization uses the btl_sendi function to achieve
lower latency and higher message rates. The problem is the btl_sendi
function was allowed to return a descriptor to the caller. This is fine
for some paths but not ok for the send inline optimization. To fix
this the btl now must be able to handle descriptor = NULL.
structure
This structure member was originally used to specify the remote segment
for an RDMA operation. Since the new btl interface no longer uses
desriptors for RDMA this member no longer has a purpose. In addition
to removing these members the local segment information has been
renamed to des_segments/des_segment_count.
The old BTL interface provided support for RDMA through the use of
the btl_prepare_src and btl_prepare_dst functions. These functions were
expected to prepare as much of the user buffer as possible for the RDMA
operation and return a descriptor. The descriptor contained segment
information on the prepared region. The btl user could then pass the
RDMA segment information to a remote peer. Once the peer received that
information it then packed it into a similar descriptor on the other
side that could then be passed into a single btl_put or btl_get
operation.
Changes:
- Removed the btl_prepare_dst function. This reflects the fact that
RDMA operations no longer depend on "prepared" descriptors.
- Removed the btl_seg_size member. There is no need to btl's to
subclass the mca_btl_base_segment_t class anymore.

Add more
using knem
It is valid to modify the remote segment that will be used with the
btl put/get operations as long as the resulting address range falls in
the originally prepared segment. Vader should have been calculating the
offset of the remote address in the registered region. This commit
fixes this issue.
We recognize that this means other users of OPAL will need to "wrap" the opal_process_name_t if they desire to abstract it in some fashion. This is regrettable, and we are looking at possible alternatives that might mitigate that requirement. Meantime, however, we have to put the needs of the OMPI community first, and are taking this step to restore hetero and SPARC support.
This commit makes the folowing changes:
- Add support for the knem single-copy mechanism. Initially vader will only
support the synchronous copy mode. Asynchronous copy support may be added
int the future.
- Improve Linux cross memory attach (CMA) when using restrictive ptrace
settings. This will allow Open MPI to use CMA without modifying the system
settings to support ptrace attach (see /etc/sysctl.d/10-ptrace.conf).
- Allow runtime selection of the single copy mechanism. The default behavior
is to use the best available. The priority list of single-copy mehanisms is
as follows: xpmem, cma, and knem.
- Allow disabling support for kernel-assisted single copy.
- Some tuning and bug fixes.
This is a large update that does the following:
- Only allocate fast boxes for a peer if a send count threshold
has been reached (default: 16). This will greatly reduce the memory
usage with large numbers of local peers.
- Improve performance by limiting the number of fast boxes that can
be allocated per peer (default: 32). This will reduce the amount
of time spent polling for fast box messages.
- Provide new MCA variables to configure the size, maximum count,
and send count thresholds for fast boxes allocations.
- Updated buffer design to increase the range of message sizes that
can be sent with a fast box.
- Add thread protection around fast box allocation (locks). When
spin locks are available this should be updated to use spin locks.
- Various fixes and cleanup.
