The problem was that we close the same fd twice, and that meantime the fd could have been reassigned
to some other file or socket.
This commit was SVN r19869.
Without this patch, doing spawn in a loop ended up by exhausting all
available file descriptors pretty quickly. There were about 5 file
descriptors opened per spawned process. Now the number of file
descriptors managed by the process (orted or HNP)
is a lot smaller.
This commit was SVN r19864.
1. remove some stale files that were overlooked in original commit
2. add a test program and data to stress iof for stdin
3. cleanup a debug statement that caused memory corruption when reading large files
4. some minor cleanups to correctly handle xon/xoff scenarios
This commit was SVN r19792.
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.
This commit was SVN r19767.
