Per discussion on the devel list starting here:
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2014/01/13799.php we
need a new litmus test to disqualify older Fortran compilers (e.g.,
Pathscale 4.0.12) that *seem* to support all the Right Things, but a)
do not support BIND(C, name="super_long_name") or b) run into an
internal error when compiling our mpi_f08 module.
Testing for b) is sketchy at best. But OMPI has some BIND(C) names
that are >32 characters, and the same compilers that exhibit b) also
seem to not support BIND(C) names that are >32 characters (i.e., a)).
Hence, the following BIND(C) test checks to ensure that BIND(C,
name="foo") works, where "foo" is actually a name >32 characters.

Add a configure test to see if the Fortran compiler supports the
PROTECTED keyword. If it does, use in mpi-f08-types.F90 (via a macro
defined in configure-fortran-output-bottom.h).
This is needed to support the PGI 9 Fortran compiler, which does not
support the PROTECTED keyword.
Note that regardless of whether we want to support the PGI 9 Fortran
compiler + mpi_f08, we need to correctly detect whether PROTECTED
works or not, and then use that determination as a criteria for
building the mpi_f08 module. Previously, mpi-f08-types.F90 used
PROTECTED unconditionally, and we didn't test for it in configure. So
if a compiler (e.g., PGI 9) supported everything else but didn't
support PROTECTED, it would try to compile the mpi_f08 stuff and choke
on the use of PROTECTED.

This configure option was only relevant when we were generating TKR
"use mpi" interfaces for MPI subroutines with choice buffers. Now
that we aren't, the only interface that needs to accept a choice
buffer is MPI_SIZEOF (which we have to provide).
And since there's now only several dozen interfaces in the "mpi" TKR
module, there's no reason to not generate ''all'' possible array rank
values (when there were thousands of interfaces, generating 4-vs-7
array ranks per interface per type was a big deal). The default used
to be 4; now we can just hard-code it to 7, the max possible value for
Fortran 2003 (I think the max was raised ?to 11? in F2008, but let's
not go there for now).

look for multiple different forms of BIND(C):
* ISO_C_BINDING
* SUBROUTINE ... BIND(C)
* TYPE, BIND(C)
* TYPE(foo), BIND(C, name="bar")
If the compiler supports all of these, then declare that we support
BIND(C), and the rest of the mpi_f08 checks can continue. If we miss
any one of those, don't bother continuing -- we won't build the
mpi_f08 module.
Also push the results of all of these tests down to ompi_info so that
they can be reported easily (e.g., "Hey, why doesn't my OMPI
installation have the mpi_f08 module?").

*** THIS RFC INCLUDES A MINOR CHANGE TO THE MPI-RTE INTERFACE ***
Note: during the course of this work, it was necessary to completely separate the MPI and RTE progress engines. There were multiple places in the MPI layer where ORTE_WAIT_FOR_COMPLETION was being used. A new OMPI_WAIT_FOR_COMPLETION macro was created (defined in ompi/mca/rte/rte.h) that simply cycles across opal_progress until the provided flag becomes false. Places where the MPI layer blocked waiting for RTE to complete an event have been modified to use this macro.
***************************************************************************************
I am reissuing this RFC because of the time that has passed since its original release. Since its initial release and review, I have debugged it further to ensure it fully supports tests like loop_spawn. It therefore seems ready for merge back to the trunk. Given its prior review, I have set the timeout for one week.

WHAT: Rewrite of ORTE OOB
WHY: Support asynchronous progress and a host of other features
WHEN: Wed, August 21
SYNOPSIS:
The current OOB has served us well, but a number of limitations have been identified over the years. Specifically:
* it is only progressed when called via opal_progress, which can lead to hangs or recursive calls into libevent (which is not supported by that code)
* we've had issues when multiple NICs are available as the code doesn't "shift" messages between transports - thus, all nodes had to be available via the same TCP interface.
* the OOB "unloads" incoming opal_buffer_t objects during the transmission, thus preventing use of OBJ_RETAIN in the code when repeatedly sending the same message to multiple recipients
* there is no failover mechanism across NICs - if the selected NIC (or its attached switch) fails, we are forced to abort
* only one transport (i.e., component) can be "active"
The revised OOB resolves these problems:
* async progress is used for all application processes, with the progress thread blocking in the event library
* each available TCP NIC is supported by its own TCP module. The ability to asynchronously progress each module independently is provided, but not enabled by default (a runtime MCA parameter turns it "on")
* multi-address TCP NICs (e.g., a NIC with both an IPv4 and IPv6 address, or with virtual interfaces) are supported - reachability is determined by comparing the contact info for a peer against all addresses within the range covered by the address/mask pairs for the NIC.
* a message that arrives on one TCP NIC is automatically shifted to whatever NIC that is connected to the next "hop" if that peer cannot be reached by the incoming NIC. If no TCP module will reach the peer, then the OOB attempts to send the message via all other available components - if none can reach the peer, then an "error" is reported back to the RML, which then calls the errmgr for instructions.
* opal_buffer_t now conforms to standard object rules re OBJ_RETAIN as we no longer "unload" the incoming object
* NIC failure is reported to the TCP component, which then tries to resend the message across any other available TCP NIC. If that doesn't work, then the message is given back to the OOB base to try using other components. If all that fails, then the error is reported to the RML, which reports to the errmgr for instructions
* obviously from the above, multiple OOB components (e.g., TCP and UD) can be active in parallel
* the matching code has been moved to the RML (and out of the OOB/TCP component) so it is independent of transport
* routing is done by the individual OOB modules (as opposed to the RML). Thus, both routed and non-routed transports can simultaneously be active
* all blocking send/recv APIs have been removed. Everything operates asynchronously.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS:
* although provision is made for component failover as described above, the code for doing so has not been fully implemented yet. At the moment, if all connections for a given peer fail, the errmgr is notified of a "lost connection", which by default results in termination of the job if it was a lifeline
* the IPv6 code is present and compiles, but is not complete. Since the current IPv6 support in the OOB doesn't work anyway, I don't consider this a blocker
* routing is performed at the individual module level, yet the active routed component is selected on a global basis. We probably should update that to reflect that different transports may need/choose to route in different ways
* obviously, not every error path has been tested nor necessarily covered
* determining abnormal termination is more challenging than in the old code as we now potentially have multiple ways of connecting to a process. Ideally, we would declare "connection failed" when *all* transports can no longer reach the process, but that requires some additional (possibly complex) code. For now, the code replicates the old behavior only somewhat modified - i.e., if a module sees its connection fail, it checks to see if it is a lifeline. If so, it notifies the errmgr that the lifeline is lost - otherwise, it notifies the errmgr that a non-lifeline connection was lost.
* reachability is determined solely on the basis of a shared subnet address/mask - more sophisticated algorithms (e.g., the one used in the tcp btl) are required to handle routing via gateways
* the RML needs to assign sequence numbers to each message on a per-peer basis. The receiving RML will then deliver messages in order, thus preventing out-of-order messaging in the case where messages travel across different transports or a message needs to be redirected/resent due to failure of a NIC

A few changes were required to support this move:
1. the PMI component used to identify rte-related data (e.g., host name, bind level) and package them as a unit to reduce the number of PMI keys. This code was moved up to the ORTE layer as the OPAL layer has no understanding of these concepts. In addition, the component locally stored data based on process jobid/vpid - this could no longer be supported (see below for the solution).
2. the hash component was updated to use the new opal_identifier_t instead of orte_process_name_t as its index for storing data in the hash tables. Previously, we did a hash on the vpid and stored the data in a 32-bit hash table. In the revised system, we don't see a separate "vpid" field - we only have a 64-bit opaque value. The orte_process_name_t hash turned out to do nothing useful, so we now store the data in a 64-bit hash table. Preliminary tests didn't show any identifiable change in behavior or performance, but we'll have to see if a move back to the 32-bit table is required at some later time.
3. the db framework was a "select one" system. However, since the PMI component could no longer use its internal storage system, the framework has now been changed to a "select many" mode of operation. This allows the hash component to handle all internal storage, while the PMI component only handles pushing/pulling things from the PMI system. This was something we had planned for some time - when fetching data, we first check internal storage to see if we already have it, and then automatically go to the global system to look for it if we don't. Accordingly, the framework was provided with a custom query function used during "select" that lets you seperately specify the "store" and "fetch" ordering.
4. the ORTE grpcomm and ess/pmi components, and the nidmap code, were updated to work with the new db framework and to specify internal/global storage options.
No changes were made to the MPI layer, except for modifying the ORTE component of the OMPI/rte framework to support the new db framework.

which is the same size as a Fortran or C integer. This resulted in configure
coming up with Fortran's MAX_INT as -2^31, which obviously isn't a positive
number. Since we found the MAX_INT using the same broken loop in a couple
places and doing it right is complicated, added a new macro that is much
more careful about sign roll-over.
During the Fortran rework between v1.6 and v1.7, the variable which
indicates whether or not Fortran is being compiled changed, so on platforms
without Fortran compilers, we were trying to determine the max value for
Fortran INTEGERS where we previously didn't. I believe this is why
bug #3374 appeared as a regression.
Finally, since the OMPI code doesn't cope with OMPI_FORTRAN_HANDLE_MAX
being negative (which was the root cause of the segfault in $3374),
add a check at the end of the OMPI_FORTRAN_GET_HANDLE_MAX macro to
ensure that OMPI_FORTRAN_HANDLE_MAX is always non-negative.

it would simplify things, but it didn't really (e.g., because there
were still some ompi/opal .m4 files in the top-level config/

was defined).
So this commit consolidates them back into the top-level directory for
simplicity.
There's still (at least) two changes that would be nice to make:
1. Split any generated .m4 file (e.g., autogen-generated .m4 files)

(e.g., with libevent2019 needing to get the visibility macro, but
NOT all the autogen-generated inclusion of component configure.m4

I doubt we'll ever get anything as clean as that, but that would be
the goal to shoot for.
This commit was SVN r27704.
accidentally adding component names to the OMPI_MPIEXT_ALL_SUBDIRS
variable twice; once with mpiext/ and once without. And then
prefixing all of them with mpiext/ again at the end. That wasn't
really necessary :-) -- we only need to add it once (without mpiext/)
and then prefix at the end (for consistency with the
OMPI_MPI_EXT_*_SUBDIRS handling).

did so!). Previously, I forgot to include the case of not specifying
--with-verbs -- oops! So now the OPAL_CHECK_VERBS_DIR macro will:
1. $opal_want_verbs will be set to: "yes" if --with-verbs or
--with-verbs=DIR was specified "no" if --without-verbs was
specified) "optional" if neither --with-verbs* nor --without-verbs
was specified
'''NOTE:''' --with-openib* are deprecated synonyms for --with-verbs*.
1. $opal_verbs_dir and $opal_verbs_libdir with either both be set or
both be empty.
This commit was SVN r26654.
* Add new configure command line options and deprecate some old ones:
* --with-verbs replaces --with-openib
* --with-verbs-libdir replaces --with-openib-libdir
* If you specify --with-openib[-libdir] without
--with-verbs[-libdir], you'll get a "these options have been
deprecated!" warning, but then they'll act just like
--with-verbs[--libdir].
'''Sidenote:''' Note that we are not renaming any components at this
time, nor are we renaming the top-level OMPI_CHECK_OPENIB m4 macro
(which is pretty strongly tied to the openib BTL and is bastaridzed
by the ofud BTL). Note that there will likely be more changes in
this area coming soon (next week?) when some long-standing changes
move to the SVN trunk: some openib BTL infrastructure will move to
ompi/mca/common, and its configury gets split up / refactored.
We extend our philosophy of other --with-<foo> configure options of
--with-verbs to ''all'' verbs-lovin components:
* If you specify --with-verbs, then all verbs-lovin' components must
configure successfully (or abort). This currently means: OOB ud,
BTL ofud, BTL openib.
* If you specify --with-verbs=DIR, then all verbs-lovin' component
must configure successfully (or abort), and will use DIR to find
verbs headers and libraries.
* If you specify --without-verbs, then all verbs-lovin' components
will be ignored.
This commit also fixes a problem where the --with-openib=DIR form
would not use DIR for ''all'' verbs-lovin' components (I think only
BTL openib and BTL ofud used that DIR). Now all of them do, as does
hwloc (because hwloc has some !OpenFabrics helper functions that
require ibv types from verbs.h).
There's a little new m4 infrastructure worth mentioning:
* If you create a new verbs-lovin' component (i.e., a component that
need verbs), your configure.m4 should
AC_REQUIRE([OPAL_CHECK_VERBS_DIR]).
* You can then use three global shell variables: $opal_want_verbs,
$opal_verbs_dir, $opal_verbs_libdir, which will be set as follows:
* opal_want_verbs will be "yes" and opal_verbs_dir and
opal_verbs_libdir will both be set to directory values, '''OR'''
* opal_want_verbs will be "no" and opal_verbs_dir and
opal_verbs_libdir will both be set empty

problems (i.e., don't return a value from a void() function!). Thanks
to Eugene for identifying these issues. Hopefully this will fix up
the problems Oracle is having with compiling the new Fortran stuff.
This commit was SVN r26310.
the case where we have a really ancient Fortran compiler that does not
support ISO_C_BINDING, but need to test to be sure that the new
configury works.
This commit was SVN r26290.
1. New mpifort wrapper compiler: you can utilize mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08 through this one wrapper compiler
1. mpif77 and mpif90 still exist, but are sym links to mpifort and may be removed in a future release
1. The mpi module has been re-implemented and is significantly "mo' bettah"
1. The mpi_f08 module offers many, many improvements over mpif.h and the mpi module
This stuff is coming from a VERY long-lived mercurial branch (3 years!); it'll almost certainly take a few SVN commits and a bunch of testing before I get it correctly committed to the SVN trunk.
== More details ==
Craig Rasmussen and I have been working with the MPI-3 Fortran WG and Fortran J3 committees for a long, long time to make a prototype MPI-3 Fortran bindings implementation. We think we're at a stable enough state to bring this stuff back to the trunk, with the goal of including it in OMPI v1.7.
Special thanks go out to everyone who has been incredibly patient and helpful to us in this journey:
* Rolf Rabenseifner/HLRS (mastermind/genius behind the entire MPI-3 Fortran effort)
* The Fortran J3 committee
* Tobias Burnus/gfortran
* Tony !Goetz/Absoft
* Terry !Donte/Oracle
* ...and probably others whom I'm forgetting :-(
There's still opportunities for optimization in the mpi_f08 implementation, but by and large, it is as far along as it can be until Fortran compilers start implementing the new F08 dimension(..) syntax.
Note that gfortran is currently unsupported for the mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module. gfortran users will a) fall back to the same mpi module implementation that is in OMPI v1.5.x, and b) not get the new mpi_f08 module. The gfortran maintainers are actively working hard to add the necessary features to support both the new mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module implementations. This will take some time.
As mentioned above, ompi/mpi/f77 and ompi/mpi/f90 no longer exist. All the fortran bindings implementations have been collated under ompi/mpi/fortran; each implementation has its own subdirectory:
{{{
ompi/mpi/fortran/
base/ - glue code
mpif-h/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f77
use-mpi-tkr/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f90
use-mpi-ignore-tkr/ - new mpi module implementation
use-mpi-f08/ - new mpi_f08 module implementation
}}}
There's also a prototype 6-function-MPI implementation under use-mpi-f08-desc that emulates the new F08 dimension(..) syntax that isn't fully available in Fortran compilers yet. We did that to prove it to ourselves that it could be done once the compilers fully support it. This directory/implementation will likely eventually replace the use-mpi-f08 version.
Other things that were done:
* ompi_info grew a few new output fields to describe what level of Fortran support is included
* Existing Fortran examples in examples/ were renamed; new mpi_f08 examples were added
* The old Fortran MPI libraries were renamed:
* libmpi_f77 -> libmpi_mpifh
* libmpi_f90 -> libmpi_usempi
* The configury for Fortran was consolidated and significantly slimmed down. Note that the F77 env variable is now IGNORED for configure; you should only use FC. Example:
{{{
shell$ ./configure CC=icc CXX=icpc FC=ifort ...
}}}
All of this work was done in a Mercurial branch off the SVN trunk, and hosted at Bitbucket. This branch has got to be one of OMPI's longest-running branches. Its first commit was Tue Apr 07 23:01:46 2009 -0400 -- it's over 3 years old! :-) We think we've pulled in all relevant changes from the OMPI trunk (e.g., Fortran implementations of the new MPI-3 MPROBE stuff for mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08, and the recent Fujitsu Fortran patches).
I anticipate some instability when we bring this stuff into the trunk, simply because it touches a LOT of code in the MPI layer in the OMPI code base. We'll try our best to make it as pain-free as possible, but please bear with us when it is committed.

prototyping new MPI functionality. The C++ bindings are officially
deprecated, and are (currently) 1 vote away from being removed from
MPI-3 altogether. So let's whack the C++ stuff from mpiext.

If the profiling directory is present '/profile' then wire in the profiling stuff.
Only supports C and F77 (and kinda F90) at the moment.
