cf377db823 MCA/base: Add new MCA variable system
Features:
 - Support for an override parameter file (openmpi-mca-param-override.conf).
   Variable values in this file can not be overridden by any file or environment
   value.
 - Support for boolean, unsigned, and unsigned long long variables.
 - Support for true/false values.
 - Support for enumerations on integer variables.
 - Support for MPIT scope, verbosity, and binding.
 - Support for command line source.
 - Support for setting variable source via the environment using
   OMPI_MCA_SOURCE_<var name>=source (either command or file:filename)
 - Cleaner API.
 - Support for variable groups (equivalent to MPIT categories).

Notes:
 - Variables must be created with a backing store (char **, int *, or bool *)
   that must live at least as long as the variable.
 - Creating a variable with the MCA_BASE_VAR_FLAG_SETTABLE enables the use of
   mca_base_var_set_value() to change the value.
 - String values are duplicated when the variable is registered. It is up to
   the caller to free the original value if necessary. The new value will be
   freed by the mca_base_var system and must not be freed by the user.
 - Variables with constant scope may not be settable.
 - Variable groups (and all associated variables) are deregistered when the
   component is closed or the component repository item is freed. This
   prevents a segmentation fault from accessing a variable after its component
   is unloaded.
 - After some discussion we decided we should remove the automatic registration
   of component priority variables. Few component actually made use of this
   feature.
 - The enumerator interface was updated to be general enough to handle
   future uses of the interface.
 - The code to generate ompi_info output has been moved into the MCA variable
   system. See mca_base_var_dump().

opal: update core and components to mca_base_var system
orte: update core and components to mca_base_var system
ompi: update core and components to mca_base_var system

This commit also modifies the rmaps framework. The following variables were
moved from ppr and lama: rmaps_base_pernode, rmaps_base_n_pernode,
rmaps_base_n_persocket. Both lama and ppr create synonyms for these variables.

This commit was SVN r28236.

e12ca48cd9 A number of C/R enhancements per RFC below:
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2010/07/8240.php

Documentation:
  http://osl.iu.edu/research/ft/

Major Changes: 
-------------- 
 * Added C/R-enabled Debugging support. 
   Enabled with the --enable-crdebug flag. See the following website for more information: 
   http://osl.iu.edu/research/ft/crdebug/ 
 * Added Stable Storage (SStore) framework for checkpoint storage 
   * 'central' component does a direct to central storage save 
   * 'stage' component stages checkpoints to central storage while the application continues execution. 
     * 'stage' supports offline compression of checkpoints before moving (sstore_stage_compress) 
     * 'stage' supports local caching of checkpoints to improve automatic recovery (sstore_stage_caching) 
 * Added Compression (compress) framework to support 
 * Add two new ErrMgr recovery policies 
   * {{{crmig}}} C/R Process Migration 
   * {{{autor}}} C/R Automatic Recovery 
 * Added the {{{ompi-migrate}}} command line tool to support the {{{crmig}}} ErrMgr component 
 * Added CR MPI Ext functions (enable them with {{{--enable-mpi-ext=cr}}} configure option) 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_Checkpoint}}} (Fixes trac:2342) 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_Restart}}} 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_Migrate}}} (may need some more work for mapping rules) 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_INC_register_callback}}} (Fixes trac:2192) 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_Quiesce_start}}} 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_Quiesce_checkpoint}}} 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_Quiesce_end}}} 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_self_register_checkpoint_callback}}} 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_self_register_restart_callback}}} 
   * {{{OMPI_CR_self_register_continue_callback}}} 
 * The ErrMgr predicted_fault() interface has been changed to take an opal_list_t of ErrMgr defined types. This will allow us to better support a wider range of fault prediction services in the future. 
 * Add a progress meter to: 
   * FileM rsh (filem_rsh_process_meter) 
   * SnapC full (snapc_full_progress_meter) 
   * SStore stage (sstore_stage_progress_meter) 
 * Added 2 new command line options to ompi-restart 
   * --showme : Display the full command line that would have been exec'ed. 
   * --mpirun_opts : Command line options to pass directly to mpirun. (Fixes trac:2413) 
 * Deprecated some MCA params: 
   * crs_base_snapshot_dir deprecated, use sstore_stage_local_snapshot_dir 
   * snapc_base_global_snapshot_dir deprecated, use sstore_base_global_snapshot_dir 
   * snapc_base_global_shared deprecated, use sstore_stage_global_is_shared 
   * snapc_base_store_in_place deprecated, replaced with different components of SStore 
   * snapc_base_global_snapshot_ref deprecated, use sstore_base_global_snapshot_ref 
   * snapc_base_establish_global_snapshot_dir deprecated, never well supported 
   * snapc_full_skip_filem deprecated, use sstore_stage_skip_filem 

Minor Changes: 
-------------- 
 * Fixes trac:1924 : {{{ompi-restart}}} now recognizes path prefixed checkpoint handles and does the right thing. 
 * Fixes trac:2097 : {{{ompi-info}}} should now report all available CRS components 
 * Fixes trac:2161 : Manual checkpoint movement. A user can 'mv' a checkpoint directory from the original location to another and still restart from it. 
 * Fixes trac:2208 : Honor various TMPDIR varaibles instead of forcing {{{/tmp}}} 
 * Move {{{ompi_cr_continue_like_restart}}} to {{{orte_cr_continue_like_restart}}} to be more flexible in where this should be set. 
 * opal_crs_base_metadata_write* functions have been moved to SStore to support a wider range of metadata handling functionality. 
 * Cleanup the CRS framework and components to work with the SStore framework. 
 * Cleanup the SnapC framework and components to work with the SStore framework (cleans up these code paths considerably). 
 * Add 'quiesce' hook to CRCP for a future enhancement. 
 * We now require a BLCR version that supports {{{cr_request_file()}}} or {{{cr_request_checkpoint()}}} in order to make the code more maintainable. Note that {{{cr_request_file}}} has been deprecated since 0.7.0, so we prefer to use {{{cr_request_checkpoint()}}}. 
 * Add optional application level INC callbacks (registered through the CR MPI Ext interface). 
 * Increase the {{{opal_cr_thread_sleep_wait}}} parameter to 1000 microseconds to make the C/R thread less aggressive. 
 * {{{opal-restart}}} now looks for cache directories before falling back on stable storage when asked. 
 * {{{opal-restart}}} also support local decompression before restarting 
 * {{{orte-checkpoint}}} now uses the SStore framework to work with the metadata 
 * {{{orte-restart}}} now uses the SStore framework to work with the metadata 
 * Remove the {{{orte-restart}}} preload option. This was removed since the user only needs to select the 'stage' component in order to support this functionality. 
 * Since the '-am' parameter is saved in the metadata, {{{ompi-restart}}} no longer hard codes {{{-am ft-enable-cr}}}. 
 * Fix {{{hnp}}} ErrMgr so that if a previous component in the stack has 'fixed' the problem, then it should be skipped. 
 * Make sure to decrement the number of 'num_local_procs' in the orted when one goes away. 
 * odls now checks the SStore framework to see if it needs to load any checkpoint files before launching (to support 'stage'). This separates the SStore logic from the --preload-[binary|files] options. 
 * Add unique IDs to the named pipes established between the orted and the app in SnapC. This is to better support migration and automatic recovery activities. 
 * Improve the checks for 'already checkpointing' error path. 
 * A a recovery output timer, to show how long it takes to restart a job 
 * Do a better job of cleaning up the old session directory on restart. 
 * Add a local module to the autor and crmig ErrMgr components. These small modules prevent the 'orted' component from attempting a local recovery (Which does not work for MPI apps at the moment) 
 * Add a fix for bounding the checkpointable region between MPI_Init and MPI_Finalize.
