- consistent arguments checking (not allowing to select an algorithm which
is not available)
- consistent way of computing the segcount (number of datatypes by segment).
- small cleanups.

description. Most of the bcast algorithms can be completed using this
generic function once we create the tree structure. Add all kind of
trees.
There are 2 versions of the generic bcast function. One using overlapping
between receives (for intermediary nodes) and then blocking sends to all
childs and another where all sends are non blocking. I still have to
figure out which one give the smallest overhead.

N gatherv's:
for (i = 0 ... size)
MPI_Gatherv(..., root = i, ...)
The new algorithm simply does (effectively):
MPI_Gatherv(..., root = 0, ...)
MPI_Bcast(..., root = 0, ...)

allocation logic is completely done outside the data-type engine (in the PML) there is
no need for any special case inside the data-type engine. There is less arguments for
the ompi_convertor_pack and ompi_convertor_unpack as well (the last field free_after is
not required anymore as there is no memory allocated in the engine itself). This change
affect all components using datatypes. I test most of them, but it might happens that I
miss some ... If it's the case please let me know (don't shoot the pianist!!).

the default decision functions (for broadcast, reduce and barrier) are based on a
high performance network (not TCP). It should give good performance (really good) for
any network having the following caracteristics: small latency (5 microseconds) and good
bandwidth (more than 1Gb/s).
+ Cleanup of the reduce algorithms, plus 2 new algorithms (binary and binomial). Now most
of the reduce algorithms use a generic tree based function for completing the reduce.
+ Added macros for computing the trees (they are used for bcast and reduce right now).
+ Allow the usage of all 5 topologies.
+ Jelena's implementation of a binary tree that can be used for non commutative operations.
Right now only the tree building function is there, it will get activated soon.
+ Some others minor cleanups.

all platforms. The only exceptions (and I will not deal with them
anytime soon) are on Windows:
- the write functions which require the length to be an int when it's
a size_t on all UNIX variants.
- all iovec manipulation functions where the iov_len is again an int
when it's a size_t on most of the UNIXes.
As these only happens on Windows, so I think we're set for now :)

George: ompi_ddt_type_size() returns a signed int only because of the
MPI spec; it will never return a negative value. So casting the
return value out of it to a (uint32_t) is safe, and makes the
comparisons be between two unsigned values.

I know it does not make much sense but one can play around with the
performance. Numbers are available at http://www.unixer.de/research/nbcoll/perf/.
This is the first step towards collv2. Next step includes the addition
of non-blocking functions to the MPI-Layer and the collv1 interface.
It implements all MPI-1 collective algorithms in a non-blocking manner.
However, the collv1 interface does not allow non-blocking collectives so
that all collectives are used blocking by the ompi-glue layer.
I wanted to add LibNBC as a separate subdirectory, but I could not
convince the buildsystem (and had not the time). So the component looks
pretty messy. It would be great if somebody could explain me how to move
all nbc*{c,h}, and {hb,dict}*{c,h} to a seperate subdirectory.

(1) As pointed out by Torsten after Jeff comment that there are 15 collectives yesterday.. nope.. I have 16 but
miss counted them in my ifdefs (I had two #11s). Replaces with enum...
(2) Added a readonly MCA param for how many backend algorithms are available per collective (used by benchmarker/STS)
This allowed me to remove the tuned query internal functions and replace them with ompi_coll_tuned_forced_max_algorithms[COLL].
(3) I was reading the user forced MCA params for the collectives on each comm create (module init) but I then put the
values into a global set of variables (like ompi_coll_tuned_reduce_forced_algorithm).
To fix this and make the code neater:
(a) The component looks up the MCA param indices on Open if dynamic_rules is set via the
ompi_coll_tuned_COLLECTIVE_intra_check_forced_init () call.
(b) Got rid of the ompi_coll_ompi_coll_tuned_COLLECTIVE_forced_algorithm/segmentsize/etc globals with a struct that
is now cached on the module data hung off the communicator. i.e. done right.
(c) On module init if dynamic rules enabled we call a general getvalues routine (in coll_tuned_forced.c) to get the
CURRENT values using the MCA param indices and then put them on the modules data segment.
A shorter version of getvalues exists for barrier which only needs the algorithm choice

this was implemented using a chain (tree followed with pipeline) by setting the chain fanout to a factor of size etc but the chain datastructure was fixed in length and if exceeded the topo create returned a null which isn't helpfull in cid next function of comdup...
Anyway two fixes, first we do have a real linear function so changed the decision function and second altered the
topo chain create to force chain fanouts of less than 1 to 1 and fanouts bigger than max to max.
next check in will change chain to dynamically allocd array (reallocable) but we shouldn't ever use a chain fanout for a linear tree anyway.

modules, if its priority is zero (the default value). Reason for that is
+ if there is no other module with a priority > 0, the hierarchical
collective module has a problem anyway, since it has to rely on the coll
modules of the subcommunicators. On the other hand, if its priority is
zero, it won't be chosen anyway, and we can simply save the
allreduce/allgather and comm_split operations which might occur during
hierarchy detection.
+ to improve the startup times until we have the modex thing which we
discussed with Jeff and Tim in Knoxville in place
- adding an mca parameter indicating a symmetric configuration. This can
speed up startup times, since each process can conclude from its data onto
the data of the other processes -> no need for the allreduce operations. Per
default this parameter is set to "no".

stage fairly confident that
- it works in most scenarious (with symmetric hierarchies, with asymmetric
hierarchies, wihout hierarchies - it just removes itself)
- it does not create too many problems (I am not aware of any at least)
- it does not slow down startup anymore dramatically (thanks to the fixes of
Brian, Jeff, Tim and a significant reduction in the number of collective
operations in the comm_query)
Any feedback is highly welcome.

- introducing a special case if size of comm == 1, avoiding thus collective

originally suggested by Ralf Wildenhues, to try to speed autogen, configure,
and make (and possibly even make install). Use automake's include directive
to drastically reduce the number of Makefile files (although the number of
Makefile.am files is the same - most are just included in a top-level
Makefile.am). Also use an Automake SUBDIRs feature to eliminate the
dynamic-mca tree, which was no longer really needed. This makes adding
a framework easier (since you don't have to remember the dynamic-mca
tree) and makes building faster (as make doesn't have to recurse through
the dynamic-mca tree)

- Move the "process 0" logic out of the main loop in reduce to make
the code a bit less complex (at the price of slight code
duplication, but it iss now significantly easier to read)
- Fix problem with uniquenes guarantee in the bootstrap mpool -- using
the CID alone was not sufficient enough to guarantee uniquenes; now

AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, instead of the deprecated version.
* Work around dumbness in modern AC_INIT that requires the version
number to be set at autoconf time (instead of at configure time, as
it was before). Set the version number, minus the subversion r number,
at autoconf time. Override the internal variables to include the r
number (if needed) at configure time. Basically, the right thing
should always happen. The only place it might not is the version
reported as part of configure --help will not have an r number.
* Since AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE taks a list of options, no need to specify
them in all the Makefile.am files.
* Addes support for subdir-objects, meaning that object files are put
in the directory containing source files, even if the Makefile.am is
in another directory. This should start making it feasible to
reduce the number of Makefile.am files we have in the tree, which
will greatly reduce the time to run autogen and configure.
This commit was SVN r7211.
- finally added "in use" flags -- one flag protects a set of segments
- these flags now used in bcast to protect (for example) when a
message is so long that the root loops around the segments and has
to re-use old segments -- now it knows that it has to wait until the
non-root processes have finished with that set of segments before it
can start using them
- implement allreduce as a reduce followed by a bcast (per discussion
with rich)
- removed some redundant data on various data structures
- implemented query MCA param ("coll_sm_shared_mem_used_data") that
tells you how much shared memory will be used for a given set of MCA
params (e.g., number of segments, etc.). For example:
ompi_info --mca coll_sm_info_num_procs 4 --param coll sm | \
grep shared_mem_used_data
tells you that for the default MCA param values (as of r7172), for 4
processes, sm will use 548864 bytes of shared memory for its data
transfer section
- remove a bunch of .c files from the Makefile.am that aren't
implemented yet (i.e., all they do is return ERR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED)

Still need to implement:

the data segment doesn't overwrite not-yet-read data
- ensure that shared memory isn't removed before all processes have
finished with it (e.g., during COMM_FREE)

- Move the component_repository API functions out of opal/mca/base/base.h
and into opal/mca/base/mca_base_component_repository.h in order to
decrease unnecessary dependencies (e.g., before this, almost
everything in the tree depended on ltdl.h, which is unnecessary --
only a small number of files really need ltdl.h)

multiple components to share a single mpool module (e.g., the
ptl/btl and coll sm components).
- Re-tool the ptl, btl, and coll sm components to first look for the
target mpool module, and if they don't find it, to create it.
- coll sm component now correctly identifies when it is supposed to
run or not (i.e., if all the processes in the communicator are on
the same host). Now we just need to fill in some algorithms. :-)
This commit was SVN r6530.
- After long discussions and ruminations on how we run components in
LAM/MPI, made the decision that, by default, all components included
in Open MPI will use the version number of their parent project
(i.e., OMPI or ORTE). They are certaint free to use a different
number, but this simplification makes the common cases easy:
- components are only released when the parent project is released
- it is easy (trivial?) to distinguish which version component goes
with with version of the parent project
- removed all autogen/configure code for templating the version .h
file in components
- made all ORTE components use ORTE_*_VERSION for version numbers
- made all OMPI components use OMPI_*_VERSION for version numbers
- removed all VERSION files from components
- configure now displays OPAL, ORTE, and OMPI version numbers
- ditto for ompi_info
- right now, faking it -- OPAL and ORTE and OMPI will always have the
same version number (i.e., they all come from the same top-level
VERSION file). But this paves the way for the Great Configure
Reorganization, where, among other things, each project will have
its own version number.
So all in all, we went from a boatload of version numbers to
[effectively] three. That's pretty good. :-)
