1. removing the enum of mapper values
2. change the req_mapper and last_mapper fields to char* so they can hold the component name instead of a mapper flag
3. revise the selection logic in the mapper components to reflect the change. Components now look for their name in the req_mapper field, or to see if other criteria (e.g., npernode) are set that mandate their doing the mapping
Several MCA params resided in the rmaps base for historical reasons - they have been in the base since at least the original 1.2 release (and perhaps earlier). However, George correctly pointed out that they really should reside in their respective components. Accordingly, move them to the components, but register synonyms to the old names to avoid breaking backward compatibility.
These revisions retain the current functionality of allowing comm_spawn'd jobs to use different mappers than the original job, and for the errmgr to utilize the resilient mapper to recover processes regardless of how they were originally mapped.
Given the large number of possible combinations, I am sure that someone will find a corner-case combination of values and selection criteria that cause either no mapper to be selected, or one other than the intended to be used. No one can test all the ways people will use this system, so I expect debugging to continue for awhile.
The ability of comm_spawn'd jobs to exploit this functionality relies on changes to the orte_dpm component - this will be committed separately.

Cleanup the heartbeat handling so it is associated with the proc, not a node.
Cleanup handling of recovery options so that defaults do not override user values iff they are provided.

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.

orte_local_chip_type and orte_local_chip_model in MPI processes it the
appropriate sysinfo module found the values on the machine.
This commit was SVN r23581.
Create an ability to store the contact info for multiple HNPs being used to route between different job families. Modify the dpm orte module to pass the resulting store during the connect_accept procedure so that all jobs involved in the resulting communicator know how to route OOB messages between them.
Add a test provided by Philippe that tests this ability.
This commit was SVN r23438.
The problem was tracked to use of the grpcomm.onesided_barrier to control daemon/mpirun termination. This relied on messaging -and- required that the program counter jump from the errmgr back to grpcomm. On rare occasions, this jump did not occur, causing mpirun to hang.
This patch looks more invasive than it is - most of the affected files simply had one or two lines removed. The essence of the change is:
* pulled the job_complete and quit routines out of orterun and orted_main and put them in a common place
* modified the errmgr to directly call the new routines when termination is detected
* removed the grpcomm.onesided_barrier and its associated RML tag
* add a new "num_routes" API to the routed framework that reports back the number of dependent routes. When route_lost is called, the daemon's list of "children" is checked and adjusted if that route went to a "leaf" in the routing tree
* use connection termination between daemons to track rollup of the daemon tree. Daemons and HNP now terminate once num_routes returns zero
Also picked up in this commit is the addition of a new bool flag to the app_context struct, and increasing the job_control field from 8 to 16 bits. Both trivial.
This commit was SVN r23429.
Since the MPIR symbols are now included in the ORTE library, remove duplicate declarations in OMPI and replace them with extern references to their ORTE instantiations.
This commit was SVN r23360.
Modify the debugger control flag to include "do not monitor" so orterun will not take debugger daemon termination into account when deciding that all jobs are done.
This commit was SVN r23282.
Add new mca params to test:
orte_debugger_test_daemon: Name of the executable to be used to simulate a debugger colaunch
orte_debugger_test_attach: Test debugger colaunch after debugger attachment
To test co-launch at job start, just set the orte_debugger_test_daemon param.
To test co-launch upon attach:
set orte_debugger_test_daemon
set orte_debugger_test_attach=1
set orte_enable_debug_cospawn_while_running=1
set orte_debugger_check_rate=<N> - defines the number of seconds to wait before "checking" for a debugger attaching
Added a "debugger" program to orte/test/mpi that just spins to simulate a debugger daemon.
This commit was SVN r23144.
1. orte_enable_recovery - default recovery policy, can be overridden on a per-job basis
2. orte_max_local_restarts - default max number of local restarts, can be overridden
3. orte_max_global_restarts - default max number of relocates, can be overridden
Implement the restart_proc API for the ODLS framework, reorganize the default fns a little to avoid copying code.
This commit was SVN r23057.
1. file activity - can monitor file size, access and modification times. If these fail to change over a specified number of sampling iterations (rate is an mca param), then the errmgr is notified.
2. memory usage - checks amount of memory used by a process. Limit and sampling rate can be set.
This support must be enabled by configuring --enable-sensors.
ompi_info and orte-info have been updated to include the new framework.
Also includes some initial steps toward restoring the recovery capability. Most notably, the ODLS API has been extended to include a "restart_proc" entry for restarting a local process, and organizes the various ERRMGR framework globals into a single struct as we do in the other ORTE frameworks. Fix an oversight in the ERRMGR framework where a pointer array was constructed, but not initialized.
Implementation continues.
This commit was SVN r23043.
* add hnp and orted modules to the errmgr framework. The HNP module contains much of the code that was in the errmgr base since that code could only be executed by the HNP anyway.
* update the odls to report process states directly into the active errmgr module, thus removing the need to send messages looped back into the odls cmd processor. Let the active errmgr module decide what to do at various states.
* remove the code to track application state progress from the plm_base_launch_support.c code. Update the plm modules to call the errmgr directly when a launch fails.
* update the plm_base_receive.c code to call the errmgr with state updates from remote daemons
* update the routed modules to reflect that process state is updated in the errmgr
* ensure that the orted's open the errmgr and select their appropriate module
* add new pretty-print utilities to print process and job state. Move the pretty-print of time info to a globally-accessible place
* define a global orte_comm function to send messages from orted's to the HNP so that others can overlay the standard RML methods, if desired.
* update the orterun help output to reflect that the "term w/o sync" error message can result from three, not two, scenarios
This commit was SVN r23023.
Many of the OPAL_ENABLE_FT should be OPAL_ENABLE_FT_CR, so fix those.
The OPAL Layer INC should call opal_output on restart so that it can refresh the string it prints to reflect the current pid/hostname which may have changed.
This commit was SVN r22824.
Add orte configuration option to control the use of the framework in the system. Although the code will build, it will not be active unless configured with --enable-bootstrap.
If bootstrap is enabled and the new opal_sysinfo framework can successfully determine the cpu model, pass that info to the application as an MCA param to support some work at Sun.
Also, have daemons report back the resources they find to guide process mapping in bootstrap operations (i.e., where the daemon starts at node boot as opposed to being launched at application start).
Adjust some platform files to enable these capabilities.
This commit was SVN r22244.
1. ensure that orte_rmaps_base_schedule_policy does not override cmd line settings
2. when you try to bind to more cores than we have, generate a not-enough-processors error message
3. allow npersocket -bind-to-core combination - because, yes, somebody actually wants to do it.
This commit was SVN r21996.
