Use the pkg-config related m4 functions to find out where
Cray's xpmem.h and libxpmem are located on a system.
With this commit, there is no longer any need to have to
explicitly indicate an xpmem install location on the configure
line, at least for Cray systems running CLE 4.X and 5.X.
Using the underlying hardware identification to split
communicators based on locality has been enabled using
the MPI_Comm_Split_Type function.
Currently implemented split's are:
HWTHREAD
CORE
L1CACHE
L2CACHE
L3CACHE
SOCKET
NUMA
NODE
BOARD
HOST
CU
CLUSTER
However only NODE is defined in the standard which is why the
remaning splits are referred to using the OMPI_ prefix instead
of the standard MPI_ prefix.
I have tested this using --without-hwloc and --with-hwloc=<path>
which both give the same output.
NOTE: I think something fishy is going on in the locality operators.
In my test-program I couldn't get the correct split on these requests:
NUMA, SOCKET, L3CACHE
where I suspected a full communicator but only got one.
- by default allow to register maximum possible (i.e 2 * total_memory)
memory. This beheviour can be turned off using mca parameter
"btl_openib_allow_max_memory_registration"
- In fallback case, use device specific parameters to calulate
memory limit.
Properly test for some dependent libraries; don't just assume
elsewhere in Open MPI's configury will find those libraries. Also
consolidate some CPPFLAGS and clarify some comments.
This gitignore was simply the catenation of all the svn:ignore
properties. However, .gitignore is pretty good at regular expressions
that span the entire tree, so we can consolidate/remove a lot of
redundant entries.
Per discussion starting
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/users/2014/12/26018.php, at
least note that OMPI does not allow adding or deleting attributes in
an attribute copy or delete callback (or any of its children) on the
same object on which the callback was invoked.
As pointed out by @ggouaillardet, we were adding some unnecessary -I
flags to CPPFLAFGS when --without-hwloc was being used. This commit
slightly updates the hwloc191 component configury to only add such
things when the component is, in fact, going to be
compiled/installed.
Before this commit we checked if the compiler supported compare-and-exchange
on 128-bit values. This turned out to be insufficient. This commit strengthens
the check to see if the processor supports the instruction (or built-in). This
check will not work when cross-compiling (will always disable the 128-bit
atomic) so overrides have been added for this case.
