1. default -npersocket to force -bind-to-socket
2. if we cannot get a value for cores/socket, try using #logical cpus. otherwise, default to 1 core
3. add missing error message for not-enough-processors
4. since we no longer loop through orte_register_params twice, put the auto-detect of
topology info in the rte_init for hnp and std_orted
5. fix bind-to-core, bysocket combination
This commit was SVN r21992.
The new options work by adding an ":if-avail" qualifier to the "bind-to-socket" and "bind-to-core" MCA params. If the system does not support this capability, the job will launch anyway. Without the qualifier, the job will abort with an error message indicating that the required functionality is not supported on this system.

1. finalize the logic for properly respecting externally assigned bindings. Thanks to Chris Samuel for his help with this. Still needs some acid testing, but appears to now work.
2. remove the double-logic of requiring opal_paffinity_alone AND bind-to-foo. If the user specifies bind-to-foo, trust her and just do it.

Add a capability to parse the rankfile to extract node information in place of requiring both hostfile and rankfile for non-RM managed environments. The rankfile is -only- parsed for this IF the hostfile and -host options are not given. Otherwise, those are used to establish allocation info as we did before this commit.
This commit was SVN r21815.
Adds several new mpirun options:
* -bysocket - assign ranks on a node by socket. Effectively load balances the procs assigned to a node across the available sockets. Note that ranks can still be bound to a specific core within the socket, or to the entire socket - the mapping is independent of the binding.
* -bind-to-socket - bind each rank to all the cores on the socket to which they are assigned.
* -bind-to-core - currently the default behavior (maintained from prior default)
* -npersocket N - launch N procs for every socket on a node. Note that this implies we know how many sockets are on a node. Mpirun will determine its local values. These can be overridden by provided values, either via MCA param or in a hostfile
Similar features/options are provided at the board level for multi-board nodes.

Let's have MTT the last word.
This commit was SVN r20557.
1. fix a race condition whereby a proc's output could trigger an event prior to the other outputs being setup, thus c ausing the IOF to declare the proc "terminated" too early. This was really rare, but could happen.
2. add a new "timestamp-output" option that timestamp's each line of output
3. add a new "output-filename" option that redirects each proc's output to a separate rank-named file.
4. add a new "xterm" option that redirects the output of the specified ranks to a separate xterm window.

SIGCONT to the a.outs. By default, they are not forwarded and
the behavior remains as it has always been. However, if one
runs with --mca orte_forward_job_control 1, then mpirun will
catch those two signals and forward them to the orteds which
will deliver them to the a.outs. We have had requests for
this feature.

1. completely and cleanly separates responsibilities between the HNP, orted, and tool components.
2. removes all wireup messaging during launch and shutdown.
3. maintains flow control for stdin to avoid large-scale consumption of memory by orteds when large input files are forwarded. This is done using an xon/xoff protocol.
4. enables specification of stdin recipients on the mpirun cmd line. Allowed options include rank, "all", or "none". Default is rank 0.
5. creates a new MPI_Info key "ompi_stdin_target" that supports the above options for child jobs. Default is "none".
6. adds a new tool "orte-iof" that can connect to a running mpirun and display the output. Cmd line options allow selection of any combination of stdout, stderr, and stddiag. Default is stdout.
7. adds a new mpirun and orte-iof cmd line option "tag-output" that will tag each line of output with process name and stream ident. For example, "[1,0]<stdout>this is output"
This is not intended for the 1.3 release as it is a major change requiring considerable soak time.

Theoretically, any PLM could use this - but in reality, all of them except rsh/ssh already leave the session attached anyway.
This fixes trac:656 - a REALLY old ticket
This commit was SVN r19294.

Ticket 656 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/656
Provide support for four MPIR extensions that allow specification of debugger daemon executable, argv for the debugger daemon, whether or not to forward debugger daemon IO, and whether or not debugger daemon will piggy-back on ORTE OOB network. Last is not yet implemented.
No change in behavior or operation occurs unless (a) the debugger specifically utilizes the extensions and, for co-locate while running, the user specifically enables the capability via an MCA param. Two of the MPIR extensions supported here are used in a widely-used debugger for a large-scale installation. The other two extensions are new and being utilized in prototype work by several debuggers for possible future release.
This commit was SVN r19275.
Since OMPI allows mpirun to default to the local node, and since users want to retain the option to co-locate procs with mpirun, we needed another param to block this error case.

Standardize the handling of the orte launch agent option across PLMs. This has been a consistent complaint I have received - each PLM would register its own MCA param to get input on the launch agent for remote nodes (in fact, one or two didn't, but most did). This would then get handled in various and contradictory ways.
Some PLMs would accept only a one-word input. Others accepted multi-word args such as "valgrind orted", but then some would error by putting any prefix specified on the cmd line in front of the incorrect argument.
For example, while using the rsh launcher, if you specified "valgrind orted" as your launch agent and had "--prefix foo" on you cmd line, you would attempt to execute "ssh foo/valgrind orted" - which obviously wouldn't work.
This was all -very- confusing to users, who had to know which PLM was being used so they could even set the right mca param in the first place! And since we don't warn about non-recognized or non-used mca params, half of the time they would wind up not doing what they thought they were telling us to do.
To solve this problem, we did the following:
1. removed all mca params from the individual plms for the launch agent
2. added a new mca param "orte_launch_agent" for this purpose. To further simplify for users, this comes with a new cmd line option "--launch-agent" that can take a multi-word string argument. The value of the param defaults to "orted".
3. added a PLM base function that processes the orte_launch_agent value and adds the contents to a provided argv array. This can subsequently be harvested at-will to handle multi-word values
4. modified the PLMs to use this new function. All the PLMs except for the rsh PLM required very minor change - just called the function and moved on. The rsh PLM required much larger changes as - because of the rsh/ssh cmd line limitations - we had to correctly prepend any provided prefix to the correct argv entry.
5. added a new opal_argv_join_range function that allows the caller to "join" argv entries between two specified indices
Please let me know of any problems. I tried to make this as clean as possible, but cannot compile all PLMs to ensure all is correct.

Add ability for sys admins to prohibit putting session directories under specified locations. Thus, they can now protect parallel file systems from foolish user mistakes.

Some minor changes to help facilitate debugger support so that both mpirun and yod can operate with it. Still to be completed.
This commit was SVN r18664.
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.
This commit was SVN r18619.
Also detect orted failed-to-start by setting timeout on launch. Currently only used in TM launcher.
Neither detection is enabled by default, but are only active if heartrate is set and/or launch timeout is set. Exception for SLURM as orted failure is always detected and reported.
More info to come on devel list.
This commit was SVN r18555.
1. it depends upon the ability of the native environment to alert us that the orted has died/failed to start. I have included that support for SLURM, but other environments need to be done.
2. for some yet-to-be-determined reason, the message that tells the remaining daemons to "die" isn't getting out of the RML, even though no obvious blockage is standing in the way. Work will continue on resolving that problem. For now, the orteds appear to be exiting on their own quite nicely when they see their HNP "lifeline" disappear.
This represents the best-available fix for ticket #221 so I am closing that ticket at this time.
This commit was SVN r18536.
By consolidating them all into one function, ompi_info can call that function and register the desired variables. This also requires, however, that ompi_info call orte_output_init to avoid generating tons of error messages, so make that adjustment too.
Fixes ticket #1314
In addition, orte_output has a race condition issue whereby calls to orte_output/verbose can occur prior to either the RML being defined/setup, or the HNP being defined. This latter occurs during the initialization of the orte_process_info structure. In both cases, there is no way orte_output can send the output to the HNP. Hence, the message must be simply output locally.
Fixes ticket #1315
