This commit looks larger than it really is since it includes a fair amount of code cleanup.
The SIGSTOP/SIGCONT+checkpointing work uses some of the functionality in r20391. Basic use case below (note that the checkpoint generated is useable as usual if the stopped application is terminated).
{{{

Other items in this commit are mostly cleanup that has been sitting off-trunk for too long:
* Add a new {{{opal_crs_base_ckpt_options_t}}} type that encapsulates the various options that could be passed to the CRS. Currently only TERM and STOP, but this makes adding others ''much'' easier.
* Eliminate ORTE_SNAPC_CKPT_STATE_PENDING_TERM, since it served a redundant purpose with the new options type.
* Lay some basic ground work for some future features.

* Pass the sequence number of the checkpoint along with reference from the global to the local coordinator.
* 'orte-restart --apponly' now just generates the app context file, and does not run with it. This provides the user the ability to edit the file before launching.
* Add a OPAL_CRS_NONE state
* Split the INC into three distinct parts.
* Implement a restart mechanism for the 'none' component. If given a context it simply execvp()'s it.
This commit was SVN r21195.
This patch contains the following items:
* Fix the flag passed to open() for the read side of the named pipe between the local and app coordinator. There is a race condition when using O_RDWR on a named pipe (not sure how that bug got in there in the first place).
* Adjust control in the C/R thread timing
* Clarify return code in BLCR component
* Allow the user to adjust the max wait time for the named pipes in the FileM local coordinator by using the MCA parameter "snapc_full_max_wait_time" (Default: 20 seconds)
* If the application terminates while there are active FileM operations, force mpirun to wait on these operations to complete.
* Allow the user to set the local copy command (Default: cp) via MCA parameter "filem_rsh_cp"
* Implement the ability to throttle the number of outgoing connections in FileM. At larger scales this type of explicit throttling helps prevent overwhelming the HNP machine. Default: 10, set via MCA parameter: {{{filem_rsh_max_outgoing}}}

* Improved timing in SnapC Full Global Coordinator
* Improved scalability of the SnapC Full protocol
* Minor improvements to the error reporting mechanisms in SnapC and FileM
* Improved the memory usage of the metadata routines - now the owner of the data is more explicit.
* Added a FileM hint to indicate when files stored locally can be moved to/from a globally mounted file system using just the 'cp' command instead of the 'rcp/scp' command. Slightly improves performance, but not too drastically. Can be set using the following SnapC MCA parameter: {{{snapc_base_global_shared=1}}}
* Implement the ability to throttle the number of outgoing connections in FileM. At larger scales this type of explicit throttling helps prevent overwhelming the HNP machine. Default: 10, set via MCA parameter: {{{filem_rsh_max_outgoing}}}
* Add a few diagnostic/debugging features to SnapC and FileM.

- Delete unnecessary header files using
contrib/check_unnecessary_headers.sh after applying
patches, that include headers, being "lost" due to
inclusion in one of the now deleted headers...
In total 817 files are touched.
In ompi/mpi/c/ header files are moved up into the actual c-file,
where necessary (these are the only additional #include),
otherwise it is only deletions of #include (apart from the above
additions required due to notifier...)
- To get different MCAs (OpenIB, TM, ALPS), an earlier version was
successfully compiled (yesterday) on:
Linux locally using intel-11, gcc-4.3.2 and gcc-SVN + warnings enabled
Smoky cluster (x86-64 running Linux) using PGI-8.0.2 + warnings enabled
Lens cluster (x86-64 running Linux) using Pathscale-3.2 + warnings enabled

Headers should be included in the .c directly.

Please see orte_show_help_replacement.sh commited next.
- Local compilation (Linux/x86_64) w/ -Wimplicit-function-declaration
actually showed two *missing* #include "orte/util/show_help.h"

This commit was SVN r20557.
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.

Only one place used the user name field - session_dir, when formulating the name of the top-level directory. Accordingly, the code for getting the user's id has been moved to the session_dir code.
This commit was SVN r17926.
* Extension to the ESS framework to support C/R
* Fixed support for {{{snapc_base_establish_global_snapshot_dir}}}
* Fixed FileM support
* Misc. minor code modifications
There are some outstanding visability issues that I want to fix next.
This commit was SVN r17725.
This commit also cleans up the checkpoint and terminate case making it more
precise than before. Previously the application could make a small amount of
progress between checkpoint completion and application termination. Now the
application will make no progress at all in this time span.
Additional minor change:
- Start using OPAL_INT_TO_BOOL instead of if/else logic
This commit was SVN r16952.
* Fix some missing includes in a few places.
* Add the cr_request() functionality to the BLCR CRS component.
We are now dependent upon the 0.6.* series of BLCR.
* Made the CR notification mechanism a registered function.
This way we can have an OPAL-only version and it can be replaced at
runtime with the ORTE version.
* Add a 'opal_cr_allow_opal_only' parameter that will enable OPAL-only
CR functionality when the user wants it. Default: Disabled.
* Fix the placement of a checkpoint request check in MPI_Init
* Pull the OPAL notification mechanism into the SnapC framework.
* We no longer fork/exec the 'opal-checkpoint' command for local
checkpointing, the Local coordinator in the orted does this directly.
* The Local and Application coordinator talk together bypassing the OPAL
notifiation mechanism.
* Optimized the Local <-> App Coordinator communication.
* Improved the structure used to track vpid_snapshots in the local coord.
* Fix a race condition in which an application under heavy communication load
may produce an inconsistent global checkpoint.

and implementation. This has shown drastic performance benefit when
transferring Many files at roughly the same time.
I tested this for many different filem operations and everything was working
fine. Let me know if you have any problems with this functionality.
Some Notes:
- opal-checkpoint now has a 'quiet' flag to keep it from being too verbose.
- FileM RSH component is fully non-blocking.
- FileM RSH component has incomming connection throttling since by default
ssh only allows 10 concurrent scp connections to any single host. This
default can be adjusted via an MCA parameter.
{{{-mca filem_rsh_max_incomming 10}}}
- There is an MCA parameter for max outgoing connections, but it is currently
not implemented. If someone needs it then it should not be hard to implement.
{{{-mca filem_rsh_max_outgoing 10}}}
- Changed the FileM request structure so that it is a bit more explicit and
flexible.
- Moved the 'preload-binary' and 'preload-files' functionality into odls/base
allowing for code reuse in the 'process' and 'default' ODLS components.
- Fixed a bug in the process name resolution which broke the 'preload-*'
functionality due to GPR table structure changes.
- The FileM RSH component might be able to see even more speedup from using a
thread pool to operate on the work_pool structures, but that is for future
work.
- Added a 'opal-show-help' file to ODLS Base
This commit was SVN r16252.
Cleanup ALL instances of output involving the printing of orte_process_name_t structures using the ORTE_NAME_ARGS macro so that the number of fields and type of data match. Replace those values with a new macro/function pair ORTE_NAME_PRINT that outputs a string (using the new thread safe data capability) so that any future changes to the printing of those structures can be accomplished with a change to a single point.
Note that I could not possibly find outputs that directly print the orte_process_name_t fields, but only dealt with those that used ORTE_NAME_ARGS. Hence, you may still have a few outputs that bark during compilation. Also, I could only verify those that fall within environments I can compile on, so other environments may yield some minor warnings.

The SnapC Full local Coordinator used this argument to attach to the job the
daemon would be launching. So once this option was removed C/R support broke.
This commit has the local coordinator attach to the job just before it is
launched by the ODLS module. This is a much cleaner solution, and will
eventually allow the SnapC modules to attach to multiple jobs launched
on a single machine.
