These two macros set the prefix for the OPAL and ORTE libraries,
respectively. Specifically, the OPAL library will be named
libPREFIXopen-pal.la and the ORTE library will be named
libPREFIXopen-rte.la.
These macros must be called, even if the prefix argument is empty.
The intent is that Open MPI will call these macros with an empty
prefix, but other projects (such as ORCM) will call these macros with
a non-empty prefix. For example, ORCM libraries can be named
liborcm-open-pal.la and liborcm-open-rte.la.
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 MPI applications under ORTE, if the ORTE and OPAL
libraries between OMPI and ORCM are not identical (which, because they
are released at different times, are likely to be different), we need
to ensure that the OMPI applications link against their ORTE and OPAL
libraries, but the ORCM executables link against their ORTE and OPAL
libraries.
This commit makes the folowing changes:
- Add support for the knem single-copy mechanism. Initially vader will only
support the synchronous copy mode. Asynchronous copy support may be added
int the future.
- Improve Linux cross memory attach (CMA) when using restrictive ptrace
settings. This will allow Open MPI to use CMA without modifying the system
settings to support ptrace attach (see /etc/sysctl.d/10-ptrace.conf).
- Allow runtime selection of the single copy mechanism. The default behavior
is to use the best available. The priority list of single-copy mehanisms is
as follows: xpmem, cma, and knem.
- Allow disabling support for kernel-assisted single copy.
- Some tuning and bug fixes.
Restore the functionality to error out (and show a helpful message) if
knem support is requested by is either not compiled in or cannot be
activated.
Thanks to Gus Correa for bringing the matter to our attention.
Somehow, this MCA param was accidentally dropped after v1.6.5. Thanks
to Gus Correa for bringing this matter to our attention.
Also moving some MCA params down from level 9 to levels 4/5.

Before this change eager gets we retried on each progress loop. This commit
modifies the protocol to only retry eager gets when another eager get has
completed. This commit also cleans up some callback code that is no longer
needed.
The GNI_RDMAMODE_FENCE bit was a left over from
async progress work that is not needed at this point
in the gni BTL. Removing the bit also allows
for the removal of the GNI_CDM_MODE_BTE_SINGLE_CHANNEL
bit from the GNI_CdmCreate call.
This commit adds initial ugni thread safety support.
With this commit, sun thread tests (excepting MPI-2 RMA)
pass with various process counts and threads/process.
Also osu_latency_mt passes.
With --enable-memchecker builds, use calloc(3) for OBJ_NEW instead of
malloc(3). This cuts down on a lot of valgrind/memory checker false
positive output.
Also make a minor change in the valgrind configure.m4; have it assign
0xf to a char. The prior assignment (of 0xff) was warning about an
overflow. This didn't really matter, but we might as well make the
test not have a gratuitious warning in it.
Properly setup the opal_process_info structure early in the initialization procedure. Define the local hostname right at the beginning of opal_init so all parts of opal can use it. Overlay that during orte_init as the user may choose to remove fqdn and strip prefixes during that time. Setup the job_session_dir and other such info immediately when it becomes available during orte_init.
Remove configure.params support: configure.params hasn't been used in
years.
Also remove autogen.subdirs support; those should really be handled by
their respective Makefile.am's.
Per discussions with pmix folks, it was determined that
the way the cray pmi pmix component was computing the
PMIX_NODE_RANK attribute for a process was incorrect.
This commit fixes the problem.
This commit was SVN r32810.
This is a large update that does the following:
- Only allocate fast boxes for a peer if a send count threshold
has been reached (default: 16). This will greatly reduce the memory
usage with large numbers of local peers.
- Improve performance by limiting the number of fast boxes that can
be allocated per peer (default: 32). This will reduce the amount
of time spent polling for fast box messages.
- Provide new MCA variables to configure the size, maximum count,
and send count thresholds for fast boxes allocations.
- Updated buffer design to increase the range of message sizes that
can be sent with a fast box.
- Add thread protection around fast box allocation (locks). When
spin locks are available this should be updated to use spin locks.
- Various fixes and cleanup.

The ess pmi module was not handling aprun launched
daemons. All daemons were thinking they were vpid 1.
Also, turns out that on cray systems using MOM nodes
for launched jobs, just detecting whether or not a
process is in a PAGG container is not sufficient.
Crank up the priority of the alps PLM component in the
event that the configure detected the presence of both
slurm and alps.
Have the ESS pmi component open the pmix framework and
select a pmix component.
