Bring Slurm PMI-1 component online
Bring the s2 component online
Little cleanup - let the various PMIx modules set the process name during init, and then just raise it up to the ORTE level. Required as the different PMI environments all pass the jobid in different ways.
Bring the OMPI pubsub/pmi component online
Get comm_spawn working again
Ensure we always provide a cpuset, even if it is NULL
pmix/cray: adjust cray pmix component for pmix
Make changes so cray pmix can work within the integrated
ompi/pmix framework.
Bring singletons back online. Implement the comm_spawn operation using pmix - not tested yet
Cleanup comm_spawn - procs now starting, error in connect_accept
Complete integration
This commit does two things. It removes checks for C99 required
headers (stdlib.h, string.h, signal.h, etc). Additionally it removes
definitions for required C99 types (intptr_t, int64_t, int32_t, etc).

Changing the client to leave its socket as blocking during the connect doesn't solve the problem by itself - you also have to introduce a sleep delay once the backlog is hit to avoid simply machine-gunning your way thru retries. This gets somewhat difficult to adjust as you don't want to unnecessarily prolong startup time.
We've solved this before by adding a listening thread that simply reaps accepts and shoves them into the event library for subsequent processing. This would resolve the problem, but meant yet another daemon-level thread. So I centralized the listening thread support and let multiple elements register listeners on it. Thus, each daemon now has a single listening thread that reaps accepts from multiple sources - for now, the orte/pmix server and the oob/usock support are using it. I'll add in the oob/tcp component later.
This still didn't fully resolve the SMP problem, especially on coprocessor cards (e.g., KNC). Removing the shared memory dstore support helped further improve the behavior - it looks like there is some kind of memory paging issue there that needs further understanding. Given that the shared memory support was about to be lost when I bring over the PMIx integration (until it is restored in that library), it seemed like a reasonable thing to just remove it at this point.

This commit adds support for project_framework_component_* parameter
matching. This is the first step in allowing the same framework name
in multiple projects. This change also bumps the MCA component version
to 2.1.0.
All master frameworks have been updated to use the new component
versioning macro. An mca.h has been added to each project to add a
project specific versioning macro of the form
PROJECT_MCA_VERSION_2_1_0.

This commit adds an owner file in each of the component directories
for each framework. This allows for a simple script to parse
the contents of the files and generate, among other things, tables
to be used on the project's wiki page. Currently there are two
"fields" in the file, an owner and a status. A tool to parse
the files and generate tables for the wiki page will be added
in a subsequent commit.
Need to check if the alps odls component has already
read the rdma creds from alps. Its okay to ask apshepherd
multiple times for rdma creds, but opal_setenv gets
a bit picky about this. Rather than check for the OPAL_EXISTS
return value from opal_setenv, for now just check with
a static variable whether or not orte_odls_alps_get_rdma_creds
has already been successfully called before.
Would be nice to have an opal_getenv function for checking
if an env. variable had already been set by opal_putenv.
In the course of doing some testing with how orted's
handle signaled child processes, found out that very
often doing a kill -9 on a process on a node just
results in the job hanging. The problem was that the
orted odls/errmgr was not properly handling the exit_code
being returned from waitpid. Now mark the proc state
as ORTE_PROC_STATE_ABORTED_BY_SIG if the exit_code
from waitpid indicates the process exited owing to
a signal.
Clean up the orte_check_alps.m4. There was a little of
unnecesary stuff for handling cle 5, since it wasn't actually
doing the right thing, which would be to use pkg-config to
find dependencies both for dynamic and static linking.
Decouple the searching for alps libs, etc. from cray pmi.
Switch the alps ess and alps odls components' config files
to use the ALPS m4 macro.
alps configury fixes
Improve a check for detecting CLE release.
Improve an error message.
Add call to orte_odls_alps_get_rdma_creds in the
local proc launch step to obtain the Cray Rdma
credentials from the apshepherd, and to set
the PMI env. variables expected by uGNI BTL, etc.
Add an alps common lib to orte. Add a function
to determine whether or not a process is in a
PAGG container.
Note: we need a better naming convention for
common libs, since right now they use a "flat"
naming convention.
Be more selective about closing fd's for the alps odls
component. Don't close fd's of pipes set up by the
apshepherd for providing RDMA credentials, etc.
Add an entry to the help file in case
alps_app_lli_pipes returns an error.
It turns out that the support for Open MPI apps on
Cray was hanging on a thin thread of support when
using the mpirun job launcher. It just happened that
with a certain set of configuration options things would
work. This is bound to backfire at some point.
To fix this weakness, as well as to allow for mpirun launched
jobs to benefit from many of the advanced placement features
provided by the Cray Linux Environment (as opposed to the hwloc
only default env of orte), a new odls alps component is introduced.
We recognize that this means other users of OPAL will need to "wrap" the opal_process_name_t if they desire to abstract it in some fashion. This is regrettable, and we are looking at possible alternatives that might mitigate that requirement. Meantime, however, we have to put the needs of the OMPI community first, and are taking this step to restore hetero and SPARC support.
These two macros set the MCA prefix and MCA cmd line id,
respectively. Specifically, MCA parameters will be named
PREFIX<foo> in the environment, and the cmd line will use
-ID foo bar.
These macros must be called during configure.ac and a value
supplied. In the case of Open MPI, the values given are
PREFIX=OMPI_MCA_ and ID=mca.
Other projects (such as ORCM) will call these macros with
their own unique values. For example, ORCM uses PREFIX=ORCM_MCA_
and ID=omca
This scheme is necessary to allow running Open MPI applications under
systems that use their own versions of ORTE and OPAL. For example,
when running OMPI applications under ORCM, we need the MCA params passed
to the ORCM daemons to be separated from those recognized by the OMPI application.
WHAT: Merge the PMIx branch into the devel repo, creating a new
OPAL “lmix” framework to abstract PMI support for all RTEs.
Replace the ORTE daemon-level collectives with a new PMIx
server and update the ORTE grpcomm framework to support
server-to-server collectives
WHY: We’ve had problems dealing with variations in PMI implementations,
and need to extend the existing PMI definitions to meet exascale
requirements.
WHEN: Mon, Aug 25
WHERE: https://github.com/rhc54/ompi-svn-mirror.git
Several community members have been working on a refactoring of the current PMI support within OMPI. Although the APIs are common, Slurm and Cray implement a different range of capabilities, and package them differently. For example, Cray provides an integrated PMI-1/2 library, while Slurm separates the two and requires the user to specify the one to be used at runtime. In addition, several bugs in the Slurm implementations have caused problems requiring extra coding.
All this has led to a slew of #if’s in the PMI code and bugs when the corner-case logic for one implementation accidentally traps the other. Extending this support to other implementations would have increased this complexity to an unacceptable level.
Accordingly, we have:
* created a new OPAL “pmix” framework to abstract the PMI support, with separate components for Cray, Slurm PMI-1, and Slurm PMI-2 implementations.
* Replaced the current ORTE grpcomm daemon-based collective operation with an integrated PMIx server, and updated the grpcomm APIs to provide more flexible, multi-algorithm support for collective operations. At this time, only the xcast and allgather operations are supported.
* Replaced the current global collective id with a signature based on the names of the participating procs. The allows an unlimited number of collectives to be executed by any group of processes, subject to the requirement that only one collective can be active at a time for a unique combination of procs. Note that a proc can be involved in any number of simultaneous collectives - it is the specific combination of procs that is subject to the constraint
* removed the prior OMPI/OPAL modex code
* added new macros for executing modex send/recv to simplify use of the new APIs. The send macros allow the caller to specify whether or not the BTL supports async modex operations - if so, then the non-blocking “fence” operation is used, if the active PMIx component supports it. Otherwise, the default is a full blocking modex exchange as we currently perform.
* retained the current flag that directs us to use a blocking fence operation, but only to retrieve data upon demand
This commit was SVN r32570.
We have been getting several requests for new collectives that need to be inserted in various places of the MPI layer, all in support of either checkpoint/restart or various research efforts. Until now, this would require that the collective id's be generated at launch. which required modification
s to ORTE and other places. We chose not to make collectives reusable as the race conditions associated with resetting collective counters are daunti
ng.
This commit extends the collective system to allow self-generation of collective id's that the daemons need to support, thereby allowing developers to request any number of collectives for their work. There is one restriction: RTE collectives must occur at the process level - i.e., we don't curren
tly have a way of tagging the collective to a specific thread. From the comment in the code:
* In order to allow scalable
* generation of collective id's, they are formed as:
*
* top 32-bits are the jobid of the procs involved in
* the collective. For collectives across multiple jobs
* (e.g., in a connect_accept), the daemon jobid will
* be used as the id will be issued by mpirun. This
* won't cause problems because daemons don't use the
* collective_id
*
* bottom 32-bits are a rolling counter that recycles
* when the max is hit. The daemon will cleanup each
* collective upon completion, so this means a job can
* never have more than 2**32 collectives going on at
* a time. If someone needs more than that - they've got
* a problem.
*
* Note that this means (for now) that RTE-level collectives
* cannot be done by individual threads - they must be
* done at the overall process level. This is required as
* there is no guaranteed ordering for the collective id's,
* and all the participants must agree on the id of the
* collective they are executing. So if thread A on one
* process asks for a collective id before thread B does,
* but B asks before A on another process, the collectives will
* be mixed and not result in the expected behavior. We may
* find a way to relax this requirement in the future by
* adding a thread context id to the jobid field (maybe taking the
* lower 16-bits of that field).
This commit includes a test program (orte/test/mpi/coll_test.c) that cycles 100 times across barrier and modex collectives.
This commit was SVN r32203.
This won't transition cleanly to the 1.8 series, and may represent too much change, so we'll have to (a) evaluate whether or not to bring it over (once it demonstrates that it does indeed solve the problem), and (b) develop a custom patch for that purpose.
