the default decision functions (for broadcast, reduce and barrier) are based on a
high performance network (not TCP). It should give good performance (really good) for
any network having the following caracteristics: small latency (5 microseconds) and good
bandwidth (more than 1Gb/s).
+ Cleanup of the reduce algorithms, plus 2 new algorithms (binary and binomial). Now most
of the reduce algorithms use a generic tree based function for completing the reduce.
+ Added macros for computing the trees (they are used for bcast and reduce right now).
+ Allow the usage of all 5 topologies.
+ Jelena's implementation of a binary tree that can be used for non commutative operations.
Right now only the tree building function is there, it will get activated soon.
+ Some others minor cleanups.

all platforms. The only exceptions (and I will not deal with them
anytime soon) are on Windows:
- the write functions which require the length to be an int when it's
a size_t on all UNIX variants.
- all iovec manipulation functions where the iov_len is again an int
when it's a size_t on most of the UNIXes.
As these only happens on Windows, so I think we're set for now :)

size and diplacement of data-type. After this patch all data can contain size_t bytes
and the displacements are defined as ptrdiff_t. All of the files I was able to compile
have been modified to match this requirement.

George: ompi_ddt_type_size() returns a signed int only because of the
MPI spec; it will never return a negative value. So casting the
return value out of it to a (uint32_t) is safe, and makes the
comparisons be between two unsigned values.

The following SVN revision numbers were found above:

todos: macroize it as we do it 10 different ways, add mca params to control handling (push up size, no change, switch off segmenting)

I know it does not make much sense but one can play around with the
performance. Numbers are available at http://www.unixer.de/research/nbcoll/perf/.
This is the first step towards collv2. Next step includes the addition
of non-blocking functions to the MPI-Layer and the collv1 interface.
It implements all MPI-1 collective algorithms in a non-blocking manner.
However, the collv1 interface does not allow non-blocking collectives so
that all collectives are used blocking by the ompi-glue layer.
I wanted to add LibNBC as a separate subdirectory, but I could not
convince the buildsystem (and had not the time). So the component looks
pretty messy. It would be great if somebody could explain me how to move
all nbc*{c,h}, and {hb,dict}*{c,h} to a seperate subdirectory.
It's .ompi_ignored because I did not test it exhaustively yet.

* make sure to properly unlink the collectives sm bootstrap area at
shutdown
* Add missing / in the path for the mpool shared memory segment
* make sure to release the common_mmap structure in the SM btl
after unlinking the file during shutdown

yes this means it WAS possible for two nodes to choice two different algorithms
(discovered by Doug Gregor and figured out by George)
Also changed some names like size to comsize so we know which sizes we are using where
This should be updated in al versions

(1) As pointed out by Torsten after Jeff comment that there are 15 collectives yesterday.. nope.. I have 16 but
miss counted them in my ifdefs (I had two #11s). Replaces with enum...
(2) Added a readonly MCA param for how many backend algorithms are available per collective (used by benchmarker/STS)
This allowed me to remove the tuned query internal functions and replace them with ompi_coll_tuned_forced_max_algorithms[COLL].
(3) I was reading the user forced MCA params for the collectives on each comm create (module init) but I then put the
values into a global set of variables (like ompi_coll_tuned_reduce_forced_algorithm).
To fix this and make the code neater:
(a) The component looks up the MCA param indices on Open if dynamic_rules is set via the
ompi_coll_tuned_COLLECTIVE_intra_check_forced_init () call.
(b) Got rid of the ompi_coll_ompi_coll_tuned_COLLECTIVE_forced_algorithm/segmentsize/etc globals with a struct that
is now cached on the module data hung off the communicator. i.e. done right.
(c) On module init if dynamic rules enabled we call a general getvalues routine (in coll_tuned_forced.c) to get the
CURRENT values using the MCA param indices and then put them on the modules data segment.
A shorter version of getvalues exists for barrier which only needs the algorithm choice

- rather than including config headers with <project>/include,
have them as <project>

the code to use the new PML send flags.

this was implemented using a chain (tree followed with pipeline) by setting the chain fanout to a factor of size etc but the chain datastructure was fixed in length and if exceeded the topo create returned a null which isn't helpfull in cid next function of comdup...
Anyway two fixes, first we do have a real linear function so changed the decision function and second altered the
topo chain create to force chain fanouts of less than 1 to 1 and fanouts bigger than max to max.
next check in will change chain to dynamically allocd array (reallocable) but we shouldn't ever use a chain fanout for a linear tree anyway.
(lession must rerun all tests for all data sizes when changing decision functions)

(apparently we've been doing this in opal and orte, but not in ompi

mca_coll_tuned_) except the component struct. Now this component

the baseline collective component. Please report any problems with
this component.
If you run into problems with this component, you can disable it with:
