- the registration array is now global instead of one by BTL.
- each framework have to declare the entries in the registration array reserved. Then
it have to define the internal way of sharing (or not) these entries between all
components. As an example, the PML will not share as there is only one active PML
at any moment, while the BTLs will have to. The tag is 8 bits long, the first 3
are reserved for the framework while the remaining 5 are use internally by each
framework.
- The registration function is optional. If a BTL do not provide such function,
nothing happens. However, in the case where such function is provided in the BTL
structure, it will be called by the BML, when a tag is registered.
Now, it's time for the second step... Converting OB1 from a switch based PML to an
active message one.

1. Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources in the openib
BTL.
1. Pasha's new implementation of asychronous HCA event handling.
Pasha's new implementation doesn't take much explanation, but the new
"multifrag" stuff does.
Note that "svn merge" was not used to bring this new code from the
/tmp/ib_multifrag branch -- something Bad happened in the periodic
trunk pulls on that branch making an actual merge back to the trunk
effectively impossible (i.e., lots and lots of arbitrary conflicts and
artifical changes). :-(
== Fine-grain control of queue pair resources ==
Galen's fine-grain control of queue pair resources to the OpenIB BTL
(thanks to Gleb for fixing broken code and providing additional
functionality, Pasha for finding broken code, and Jeff for doing all
the svn work and regression testing).
Prior to this commit, the OpenIB BTL created two queue pairs: one for
eager size fragments and one for max send size fragments. When the
use of the shared receive queue (SRQ) was specified (via "-mca
btl_openib_use_srq 1"), these QPs would use a shared receive queue for
receive buffers instead of the default per-peer (PP) receive queues
and buffers. One consequence of this design is that receive buffer
utilization (the size of the data received as a percentage of the
receive buffer used for the data) was quite poor for a number of
applications.
The new design allows multiple QPs to be specified at runtime. Each
QP can be setup to use PP or SRQ receive buffers as well as giving
fine-grained control over receive buffer size, number of receive
buffers to post, when to replenish the receive queue (low water mark)
and for SRQ QPs, the number of outstanding sends can also be
specified. The following is an example of the syntax to describe QPs
to the OpenIB BTL using the new MCA parameter btl_openib_receive_queues:
{{{
-mca btl_openib_receive_queues \
"P,128,16,4;S,1024,256,128,32;S,4096,256,128,32;S,65536,256,128,32"
}}}
Each QP description is delimited by ";" (semicolon) with individual
fields of the QP description delimited by "," (comma). The above
example therefore describes 4 QPs.
The first QP is:
P,128,16,4
Meaning: per-peer receive buffer QPs are indicated by a starting field
of "P"; the first QP (shown above) is therefore a per-peer based QP.
The second field indicates the size of the receive buffer in bytes
(128 bytes). The third field indicates the number of receive buffers
to allocate to the QP (16). The fourth field indicates the low
watermark for receive buffers at which time the BTL will repost
receive buffers to the QP (4).
The second QP is:
S,1024,256,128,32
Shared receive queue based QPs are indicated by a starting field of
"S"; the second QP (shown above) is therefore a shared receive queue
based QP. The second, third and fourth fields are the same as in the
per-peer based QP. The fifth field is the number of outstanding sends
that are allowed at a given time on the QP (32). This provides a
"good enough" mechanism of flow control for some regular communication
patterns.
QPs MUST be specified in ascending receive buffer size order. This
requirement may be removed prior to 1.3 release.

This is required to tighten up the BTL semantics. Ordering is not guaranteed,
but, if the BTL returns a order tag in a descriptor (other than
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER) then we may request another descriptor that will obey
ordering w.r.t. to the other descriptor.
This will allow sane behavior for RDMA networks, where local completion of an
RDMA operation on the active side does not imply remote completion on the
passive side. If we send a FIN message after local completion and the FIN is
not ordered w.r.t. the RDMA operation then badness may occur as the passive
side may now try to deregister the memory and the RDMA operation may still be
pending on the passive side.
Note that this has no impact on networks that don't suffer from this
limitation as the ORDER tag can simply always be specified as
MCA_BTL_NO_ORDER.

We eagerly send data up to btl_*_eager_limit with the match
Upon ACK of the MATCH we start using send/receives of size
btl_*_max_send_size up to the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset
After the btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset we begin using RDMA writes of
size btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size.
Now, on a per message basis we only use the above protocol if the
message is larger than btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size
btl_*_eager_limit - > same
btl_*_max_send_size -> same
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_offset -> btl_*_min_rdma_size
btl_*_rdma_pipeline_frag_size -> btl_*_max_rdma_size
btl_*_min_rdma_pipeline_size is new..
This patch also moves all BTL common parameters initialisation into
btl_base_mca.c file.

computation of the current location on the pack/unpack process. This can
be used both for retrieving the pointer to the first byte (in the special
case of the cached RDMA protocol) and for getting the current
position (for the pipelined protocol).
I modified all BTLs, but most of them are still untested.

allocation logic is completely done outside the data-type engine (in the PML) there is
no need for any special case inside the data-type engine. There is less arguments for
the ompi_convertor_pack and ompi_convertor_unpack as well (the last field free_after is
not required anymore as there is no memory allocated in the engine itself). This change

miss some ... If it's the case please let me know (don't shoot the pianist!!).

- Added some basic flow control to limit number of posted sends.
- Merged endpoint send/recv lock into single endpoint lock.
- Set the LMR triplet length in the send path, not at allocation time.
This has to be done because upper layers might send less than the
amount allocated.
- Alter the tie-breaker if statement protecting the second call
to dat_ep_connect(). The logic was reversed compared to the tie-
breaker for the first dat_ep_connect(), making it possible for
3 or more processes to form a deadlock loop.
- Some asserts were added for debugging purposes.. leaving them
in place for now.
This commit was SVN r10317.
Trying to remember what I did here.. eager/max messages should work now, no RDMA yet. A number of other fixes and cleanups.
I do know of two problems:
Bad stuff happens when flooded with send frags too quickly - the BTL doesn't handle flow control.
Certain IBM tests turn up a length assertion in the datatype engine - needs more investigation.

we send our local addr_t OOB. Remote side then matches endpoints and calls
dat_ep_connect(). Everything should be the same as before from here, except
that client/server roles are reversed.
- Properly set our buffer size when posting receives. When the frag used to
transfer address information is recycled by the free list, the wrong buffer
size was being used, which caused buffer overflow errors.
- Finally put the uDAPL error handling stuff in the mpool component.
- Remove a few more OPAL_OUTPUTs.

Not much got tested that wasn't already - I've uncovered a connection
establishment deadlock and wanted to get these changes committed before I
attack it.
The big changes:
- Moved much of the connection code from btl_udapl_component.c to
btl_udapl_endpoint.c.
- Cleaned up initialization of various fragment members.
- MCA_BTL_UDAPL_ERROR macro, which is compiled in/out appropriately.
This commit was SVN r9496.
- Grab the mpool_registration in _frag_common_constructor()
- Save the LMR context in the segment key
- No need for cookie variables - can just cast the frag
- No need to memcpy() data when recv'ing
- Add an LMR triplet to the fragment structure and initialize it
in btl_udapl_alloc().
- Whitespace/typo fixes, remove some opal_output() calls
Looks like I can use triplets describing sub-regions of registered LMR's. So I
do this - prior to this patch I was sending the entire free list memory over,
which isn't correct :)
Back to an earlier problem - when sending address information right after
connection establishment, the receiving end receives a DTO completion event and
appears to have good data. But the sending end never receives a DTO completion
event indicating the send completed, and never completes the client side of the
connection.
This commit was SVN r9386.
In short, I'm very close to having connection establishment and eager send/recv working.
Part of the connection process involves sending address information from the
client to server. For some reason, I am never receiving an event indicating
completetion of the send on the client side. Otherwise, connection
establishment is working and eager send/recv should be trivial from here.
Some more detailed changes:
- Send partially implemented, just handles starting up new connections.
- Several support functions implemented for establishing connection. Client
side code went in btl_udapl_endpoint.c, server side in btl_udapl_component.c
- Frags list and send/recv locks added to the endpoint structure.
- BTL sets up a public service point, which listens for new connections.
Steps over ports that are already bound, iterating through a range of ports.
- Remove any traces of recv frags, don't think I need them after all.
- Pieces of component_progress() implemented for connection establishment.
- Frags have two new types for connection establishment - CONN_SEND and
CONN_RECV.
- Many other minor cleanups not affecting functionality
