Modify the RMAPS framework so we eliminate communicating a map to a backend node when certain attributes are set. The proxy functions are now implemented in the base, and a check made for HNP/non-HNP operation made in the map_jobs function prior to execution.
This commit was SVN r12619.
Note that Bproc won't support this operation, so we just ignore the --reuse-daemons directive.
I'm afraid I don't understand the POE and XGrid environments well enough to attempt the necessary modifications.
Also, please note that XGrid support has been broken on the trunk. I don't understand the code syntax well enough to make the required changes to that PLS component, so it won't compile at the moment. I'm hoping Brian has a few minutes to fix it after SC.

1. new functionality in the pls base to check for reusable daemons and launch upon them
2. an extension of the odls API to allow each odls component to build a notify message with the "correct" data in it for adding processes to the local daemon. This means that the odls now opens components on the HNP as well as on daemons - but that's the price of allowing so much flexibility. Only the default odls has this functionality enabled - the others just return NOT_IMPLEMENTED
3. addition of a new command line option "--reuse-daemons" to orterun. The default, for now, is to NOT reuse daemons. Once we have more time to test this capability, we may choose to reverse the default. For one thing, we probably want to investigate the tradeoffs in start time for comm_spawn'd processes that reuse daemons versus launch their own. On some systems, though, having another daemon show up can cause problems - so they may want to set the default as "reuse".
This is ONLY enabled for rsh launch, at the moment. The code needing to be added to each launcher is about three lines long, so I'll be doing that as I get access to machines I can test it on.

1. use non-blocking sends to transmit commands (this was actually done in a prior commit)
2. have an "ack" message sent back from the orted when it completes the command
The latter item is the new one here. With my prior commit, it was possible for the HNP to move on to other things before the orted had completed its command. This caused the HNP to occassionally exit before the orted, thus generating "lost connection" errors. With this change, we retain the parallel nature of the command communications, but still hold the HNP at that point until the orteds are done.
Best of both worlds.

Accordingly, there are new APIs to the name service to support the ability to get a job's parent, root, immediate children, and all its descendants. In addition, the terminate_job, terminate_orted, and signal_job APIs for the PLS have been modified to accept attributes that define the extent of their actions. For example, doing a "terminate_job" with an attribute of ORTE_NS_INCLUDE_DESCENDANTS will terminate the given jobid AND all jobs that descended from it.
I have tested this capability on a MacBook under rsh, Odin under SLURM, and LANL's Flash (bproc). It worked successfully on non-MPI jobs (both simple and including a spawn), and MPI jobs (again, both simple and with a spawn).

Add some debugger output to the ODLS default component.
Modify the orted command communication system so that it is done via non-blocking sends. This removes the linearity of the transmission and improves the response time.
This commit was SVN r12585.
1. Fix the "hang" condition when an application isn't found. It turned out that the ODLS had some difficulty with the process actually not having been started - hence, it never called the waitpid callback. As a result, the "terminated" trigger didn't fire, and so mpirun didn't wake up. With this change, the HNP's errmgr forces the issue by causing the trigger to fire itself when an abort condition occurs.
2. Shift the recording of the pid and the nodename from mpi_init to the orted launcher. This allows programs such as Eclipse PTP to get the pids even for non-MPI applications. In the case of bproc, the pls handles this chore since we don't use orteds in that system.

If you want to look at our launch and MPI process startup times, you can do so with two MCA params:
OMPI_MCA_orte_timing: set it to anything non-zero and you will get the launch time for different steps in the job launch procedure. The degree of detail depends on the launch environment. rsh will provide you with the average, min, and max launch time for the daemons. SLURM block launches the daemon, so you only get the time to launch the daemons and the total time to launch the job. Ditto for bproc. TM looks more like rsh. Only those four environments are currently supported - anyone interested in extending this capability to other environs is welcome to do so. In all cases, you also get the time to setup the job for launch.
OMPI_MCA_ompi_timing: set it to anything non-zero and you will get the time for mpi_init to reach the compound registry command, the time to execute that command, the time to go from our stage1 barrier to the stage2 barrier, and the time to go from the stage2 barrier to the end of mpi_init. This will be output for each process, so you'll have to compile any statistics on your own. Note: if someone develops a nice parser to do so, it would be really appreciated if you could/would share!

Only close off stdout/stderr from the daemons if we are not debugging the slurm pls and --debug-daemons was not passed.

The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 352 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/352
Fix the persistent daemon problem where it was exiting when a job completed. Problem was that the persistent daemon would order the job daemons to exit. They would then send an 'ack' back to the persistent daemon - but the ack consisted of an echo of the "exit" command, which was recv'd by the wrong listener who treated it as a properly sent cmd....and exited.

This patch will cause a problem for cnos, however, as there we want to specifically tell the backends to be "null". I'm working on that issue.
