a standalone library named libopenmpi-malloc. Users wanting to
use leave_pinned with ptmalloc2 will now need to link the library
into their application explicitly. All other users will use the
libc-provided allocator instead of Open MPI's ptmalloc2. This change
may be overriden with the configure option enable-ptmalloc2-internal
- The leave_pinned options will now default to using mallopt on
Linux in the cases where ptmalloc2 was not linked in. mallopt
will also only be available if munmap can be intercepted (the
default whenever Open MPI is not compiled with --without-memory-
manager.
- Open MPI will now complain and refuse to use leave_pinned if
no memory intercept / mallopt option is available.

orte-checkpoint/orte-restart seem to not seem to totally like orte_output so revert them to opal_output for now. Since we have no need for the additional complexity of orte_output we can drop it for now and revisit this if anyone needs it later.
It seems that if you set the verbose level on an output handle then try to call a normal orte_output() on it then the message will *not* be printed. This is the same for opal_output, and seems incorrect to me because it stops some error messages from being printed out if you do not directly specify opal_output(0, ...). Maybe someone should take a look a this.
orte-checkpoint would segv if passed an incorrect PID. Fixed the return code so it errors out properly.
Thanks to Eric Roman for bringing this to my attention.

If Valgrind is requested but wrong version is supplied, print error messages and stop.
Save the CPPFLAGS in opal_memchecker_valgrind_CPPFLAGS, which could be used in
Makefile.am.
Many thanks to Jeff.

= ORTE Job-Level Output Messages =
Add two new interfaces that should be used for all new code throughout
the ORTE and OMPI layers (we already make the search-and-replace on
the existing ORTE / OMPI layers):
* orte_output(): (and corresponding friends ORTE_OUTPUT,
orte_output_verbose, etc.) This function sends the output directly
to the HNP for processing as part of a job-specific output
channel. It supports all the same outputs as opal_output()
(syslog, file, stdout, stderr), but for stdout/stderr, the output
is sent to the HNP for processing and output. More on this below.
* orte_show_help(): This function is a drop-in-replacement for
opal_show_help(), with two differences in functionality:
1. the rendered text help message output is sent to the HNP for
display (rather than outputting directly into the process' stderr
stream)
1. the HNP detects duplicate help messages and does not display them
(so that you don't see the same error message N times, once from
each of your N MPI processes); instead, it counts "new" instances
of the help message and displays a message every ~5 seconds when
there are new ones ("I got X new copies of the help message...")
opal_show_help and opal_output still exist, but they only output in
the current process. The intent for the new orte_* functions is that
they can apply job-level intelligence to the output. As such, we
recommend that all new ORTE and OMPI code use the new orte_*
functions, not thei opal_* functions.
=== New code ===
For ORTE and OMPI programmers, here's what you need to do differently
in new code:
* Do not include opal/util/show_help.h or opal/util/output.h.
Instead, include orte/util/output.h (this one header file has
declarations for both the orte_output() series of functions and
orte_show_help()).
* Effectively s/opal_output/orte_output/gi throughout your code.
Note that orte_output_open() takes a slightly different argument
list (as a way to pass data to the filtering stream -- see below),
so you if explicitly call opal_output_open(), you'll need to
slightly adapt to the new signature of orte_output_open().
* Literally s/opal_show_help/orte_show_help/. The function signature
is identical.
=== Notes ===
* orte_output'ing to stream 0 will do similar to what
opal_output'ing did, so leaving a hard-coded "0" as the first
argument is safe.
* For systems that do not use ORTE's RML or the HNP, the effect of
orte_output_* and orte_show_help will be identical to their opal
counterparts (the additional information passed to
orte_output_open() will be lost!). Indeed, the orte_* functions
simply become trivial wrappers to their opal_* counterparts. Note
that we have not tested this; the code is simple but it is quite
possible that we mucked something up.
= Filter Framework =
Messages sent view the new orte_* functions described above and
messages output via the IOF on the HNP will now optionally be passed
through a new "filter" framework before being output to
stdout/stderr. The "filter" OPAL MCA framework is intended to allow
preprocessing to messages before they are sent to their final
destinations. The first component that was written in the filter
framework was to create an XML stream, segregating all the messages
into different XML tags, etc. This will allow 3rd party tools to read
the stdout/stderr from the HNP and be able to know exactly what each
text message is (e.g., a help message, another OMPI infrastructure
message, stdout from the user process, stderr from the user process,
etc.).
Filtering is not active by default. Filter components must be
specifically requested, such as:
{{{
$ mpirun --mca filter xml ...
}}}
There can only be one filter component active.
= New MCA Parameters =
The new functionality described above introduces two new MCA
parameters:
* '''orte_base_help_aggregate''': Defaults to 1 (true), meaning that
help messages will be aggregated, as described above. If set to 0,
all help messages will be displayed, even if they are duplicates
(i.e., the original behavior).
* '''orte_base_show_output_recursions''': An MCA parameter to help
debug one of the known issues, described below. It is likely that
this MCA parameter will disappear before v1.3 final.
= Known Issues =
* The XML filter component is not complete. The current output from
this component is preliminary and not real XML. A bit more work
needs to be done to configure.m4 search for an appropriate XML
library/link it in/use it at run time.
* There are possible recursion loops in the orte_output() and
orte_show_help() functions -- e.g., if RML send calls orte_output()
or orte_show_help(). We have some ideas how to fix these, but
figured that it was ok to commit before feature freeze with known
issues. The code currently contains sub-optimal workarounds so
that this will not be a problem, but it would be good to actually
solve the problem rather than have hackish workarounds before v1.3 final.

Also set the 'best_priority' to the smallest 32 bit integer possible so negaive priority component can be selected if they are the highest ranking component available.
This commit was SVN r18427.
* Remove the opal_only option. This was suffering from bit rot, and no one uses it. It can be added back fairly easily if wanted.
* Cleanup metadata interactions at the local level.
* Touch up some of the INC funcitonality (fix typos and a minor ordering issue)

Any components not in the trunk, but in one of the effected frameworks *must* be
updated. Contact the list, look at the RFC, or look at the diff for how to do this.
Sorry for the early commit of this, but I wanted to get it in today (per RFC) and
didn't know if I would have a chance later today.

The problem was caused by a bad ordering between the restart of the ORTE level tcp connections (in the OOB - out-of-band communication) and the Open MPI level tcp connections (BTLs). Before this commit ORTE would shutdown and restart the OOB completely before the OMPI level restarted its tcp connections. What would happen is that a socket descriptor used by the OMPI level on checkpoint was assigned to the ORTE level on restart. But the OMPI level had no knowledge that the socket descriptor it was previously using has been recycled so it closed it on restart. This caused the ORTE level to break as the newly created socket descriptor was closed without its knowledge.
The fix is to have the OMPI level shutdown tcp connections, allow the ORTE level to restart, and then allow the OMPi level to restart its connections. This seems obvious, and I'm surprised that this bug has not cropped up sooner. I'm confident that this specific problem has been fixed with this commit.
Thanks to Eric Roman and Tamer El Sayed for their help in identifying this problem, and patience while I was fixing it.
* Add a new state {{{OPAL_CRS_RESTART_PRE}}}. This state identifies when we are on the down slope of the INC (finalize-like) which is useful when you want to close, but not reopen a component set for fear of interfering with a lower level.
* Use this new state in OMPI level coordination. Here we want to make sure to play well with both the OMPI/BTL/TCP and ORTE/OOB/TCP components.
* Update ft_event functions in PML and BML to handle the new restart state.
* Add an additional flag to the error output in OOB/TCP so we can see what the socket descriptor was on failure as this can be helpful in debugging.

Greatly reduce the number of "foo" -> "opal_foo" symbol renames in the
libevent source, and instead greatly expand the event_rename.h file
that uses preprocessor macros to make all public symbols be
"opal_foo".

* The opal_sys_timer_get_cycles() call was implemented for
Sparc v9 using inline assembly, but not in the assembly files.
This would only currently matter on Linux Sparc systems using
a compiler that didn't support inline assembly (not many of
those), but it should be there for completion.
* The linux timer component would always build on non-Alpha
platforms, rather than only building on platforms where
opal_sys_timer_get_cycles() was implemented. This would
only matter on a very narrow set of platforms that we don't
really support, but still, it could be more right. We now
only build the component on platforms where we have the
assembly call to get the cycle counter.
* Added a comment to opal/sys/timer.h to note that the linux
timer component needed to be updated if another platform was
added.
This should be harmless to commit. It will only really change
behaviors on platforms we don't have assembly support for, which
currently won't make it through configure. It really only matters
when (if?) we support atomic operations through libatomic_ops.

This commit lowers the priority of the darwin backtrace component
below that of the ''execinfo'' and ''stackprint'' components, which
will cause OS X Leopard to use the ''execinfo'' component. execinfo
utilizes a public API for printing the stacktrace. The ''darwin''
component uses some evil hacks and a not-so supported package from
Apple to print the stack trace.
