Short description: major changes include -
1. singletons now fork/exec a local daemon to manage their operations.
2. the orte daemon code now resides in libopen-rte
3. daemons no longer use the orte triggering system during startup. Instead, they directly call back to their parent pls component to report ready to operate. A base function to count the callbacks has been provided.
I have modified all the pls components except xcpu and poe (don't understand either well enough to do it). Full functionality has been verified for rsh, SLURM, and TM systems. Compile has been verified for xgrid and gridengine.
This commit was SVN r15390.
Per suggestion, if we don't find a valid shell via getpwuid(), also
check the $SHELL environment variable. Also perform a few minor
cleanups along the way.
This commit was SVN r15156.
The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 1060 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1060
1. generalize orte_rml.xcast to become a general broadcast-like messaging system. Messages can now be sent to any tag on the daemons or processes. Note that any message sent via xcast will be delivered to ALL processes in the specified job - you don't get to pick and choose. At a later date, we will introduce an augmented capability that will use the daemons as relays, but will allow you to send to a specified array of process names.
2. extended orte_rml.xcast so it supports more scalable message routing methodologies. At the moment, we support three: (a) direct, which sends the message directly to all recipients; (b) linear, which sends the message to the local daemon on each node, which then relays it to its own local procs; and (b) binomial, which sends the message via a binomial algo across all the daemons, each of which then relays to its own local procs. The crossover points between the algos are adjustable via MCA param, or you can simply demand that a specific algo be used.
3. orteds no longer exhibit two types of behavior: bootproxy or VM. Orteds now always behave like they are part of a virtual machine - they simply launch a job if mpirun tells them to do so. This is another step towards creating an "orteboot" functionality, but also provided a clean system for supporting message relaying.
Note one major impact of this commit: multiple daemons on a node cannot be supported any longer! Only a single daemon/node is now allowed.
This commit is known to break support for the following environments: POE, Xgrid, Xcpu, Windows. It has been tested on rsh, SLURM, and Bproc. Modifications for TM support have been made but could not be verified due to machine problems at LANL. Modifications for SGE have been made but could not be verified. The developers for the non-verified environments will be separately notified along with suggestions on how to fix the problems.

symbols in them and environ is defined only in the final application
(probably in crt1.o). Apple provides a function for getting at the
environment, so use that instead if it's available.
This commit was SVN r14857.
This completes the minor changes required to the PLS components. Basically, there is a small change required to the parameter list of the orted cmd functions. I caught and did it for xcpu and poe, in addition to the components listed in my email - so I think that only leaves xgrid unconverted.
The orted fail-to-start mods will also make changes in the PLS components, but those can be localized so they come in one at a time.

finally brings in functionality that is already on the 1.2 branch, and
was developed and tested in the v1.2ofed branch (and other places).
Short version of new features:
* Support for ibv_fork_init()
* Automatically fill in the openib BTL bandwidth value by
querying the HCA port
* Installdirs functionality
* Fixes to always use -I in the Fortran wrapper compilers (#924)
* Gleb's mpool updates
* Remove some kruft in btl/openib/configure.m4, therefore
fixing the harmless warnings noted in #665
* Bunches of updates to the Linux RPM spec file
I.e., effectively the same thing that r14411 brought to the v1.2
branch.
Also effectively brought in r14432 and r14433 (some fixes on top of
the original r14411 commit to v1.2). Still need to bring in the moral
equivalent of r14445 after this commit (fixes to installdirs).

the program it try to spawn is missing.
Description of the problem: When the rsh pls try to spawn a local
process which is missing (such as a removed orted) the orterun
deadlock.
Description of the fix: The forked child deal with finding the
program to be executed. If it fails to find it, then instead of
calling exit (as a normal forked program is expected to do) it
continue the execution using a execution path it was never
expected to use (back in orterun and then main). Bad things
happens as expected. Forcing the child to use exit when it fails
to find the orted (and forcing the child to use exit everywhere
instead of return) correct the logic of the rsh pls and make it
behave as expected.
This commit was SVN r14377.
Collect the base 'orted' command line into a base function since most of the
PLS components were duplicating this code. Add AMCA parameter command line
component to the base set.
Add Aggregate MCA parameter support to the following PLS components:
- gridengine
- process
- slurm
- poe
- tm
Improve support for 'rsh' component.
Did/could not support the following components:
- bproc
- proxy
- xcpu
- cnos
- xgrid
The above components had peculiar needs that made it non-trivial to add an
option. The authors of these components need to help in supporting this
new option.
I was only able to test the SLURM and RSH components due to system availability.
The others should work without problem.

deal with the PLS RSH. Remove support for unknown user (i.e. if the user is
not known by the system, then it shouldn't be allowed to spawn anything).

This merge adds Checkpoint/Restart support to Open MPI. The initial
frameworks and components support a LAM/MPI-like implementation.
This commit follows the risk assessment presented to the Open MPI core
development group on Feb. 22, 2007.

- mca_base_param_file_prefix
(Default: NULL)
This is the fullname of the "-am" mpirun option. Used to specify a ':'
separated list of AMCA parameter set files.
- mca_base_param_file_path
(Default: $SYSCONFDIR/amca-param-sets/:$CWD)
The path to search for AMCA files with relative paths. A warning will be
printed if the AMCA file cannot be found.
* Added a new function "mca_base_param_recache_files" the re-reads the file
configurations. This is used internally to help bootstrap the MCA system.
* Added a new orterun/mpirun command line option '-am' that aliases for the
mca_base_param_file_prefix MCA parameter
* Exposed the opal_path_access function as it is generally useful in other
places in the code.
* New function "opal_cmd_line_make_opt_mca" which will allow you to append a
new command line option with MCA parameter identifiers to set at the same
time. Previously this could only be done at command line declaration time.
* Added a new directory under the $pkgdatadir named "amca-param-sets" where all
the 'shipped with' Open MPI AMCA parameter sets are placed. This is the first
place to search for AMCA sets with relative paths.
* An example.conf AMCA parameter set file is located in
contrib/amca-param-sets/.
* Jeff Squyres contributed an OpenIB AMCA set for benchmarking.
Note: You will need to autogen with this commit as it adds a configure param.

then we modify the argv, forcing the reallocation of the array. With luck
the saved pointer still have a meaning ... without execve return with error

1. add a "cancel_operation" API to the pls components that allows orterun to demand that an orted operation (e.g., terminate_job) be immediately cancelled and abandoned.
2. changes the pls orted commands from blocking to non-blocking. This allows us to interrupt those operations should an orted be non-responsive. The change also adds an orte_abort_timeout that limits how long orterun will automatically wait for the orteds to respond - if the terminate command, for example, doesn't see orted response within that time, then we printout an appropriate error message and just give up.
3. modifies orterun to allow multiple ctrl-c's to simply abort the program even if the orteds have not responded
4. does some cleanup on the orte-level mca params so that their implementation looks a lot more like that of ompi - makes it easier to maintain. This change also includes the definition of an orte_abort_timeout struct and associated MCA param (can't have too many!) so you can set the time after which orterun gives up on waiting for orteds to respond
This needs more testing before migrating to 1.2.

function prototype lives. Without this, we get compile
warnings. In addition, for 64-bit Solaris, we get a
segmentation fault from orterun without this include.
This commit was SVN r13065.
Modify the RMAPS framework so we eliminate communicating a map to a backend node when certain attributes are set. The proxy functions are now implemented in the base, and a check made for HNP/non-HNP operation made in the map_jobs function prior to execution.
This commit was SVN r12619.
Note that Bproc won't support this operation, so we just ignore the --reuse-daemons directive.
I'm afraid I don't understand the POE and XGrid environments well enough to attempt the necessary modifications.
Also, please note that XGrid support has been broken on the trunk. I don't understand the code syntax well enough to make the required changes to that PLS component, so it won't compile at the moment. I'm hoping Brian has a few minutes to fix it after SC.
This commit was SVN r12614.
1. new functionality in the pls base to check for reusable daemons and launch upon them
2. an extension of the odls API to allow each odls component to build a notify message with the "correct" data in it for adding processes to the local daemon. This means that the odls now opens components on the HNP as well as on daemons - but that's the price of allowing so much flexibility. Only the default odls has this functionality enabled - the others just return NOT_IMPLEMENTED
3. addition of a new command line option "--reuse-daemons" to orterun. The default, for now, is to NOT reuse daemons. Once we have more time to test this capability, we may choose to reverse the default. For one thing, we probably want to investigate the tradeoffs in start time for comm_spawn'd processes that reuse daemons versus launch their own. On some systems, though, having another daemon show up can cause problems - so they may want to set the default as "reuse".
This is ONLY enabled for rsh launch, at the moment. The code needing to be added to each launcher is about three lines long, so I'll be doing that as I get access to machines I can test it on.

Accordingly, there are new APIs to the name service to support the ability to get a job's parent, root, immediate children, and all its descendants. In addition, the terminate_job, terminate_orted, and signal_job APIs for the PLS have been modified to accept attributes that define the extent of their actions. For example, doing a "terminate_job" with an attribute of ORTE_NS_INCLUDE_DESCENDANTS will terminate the given jobid AND all jobs that descended from it.
I have tested this capability on a MacBook under rsh, Odin under SLURM, and LANL's Flash (bproc). It worked successfully on non-MPI jobs (both simple and including a spawn), and MPI jobs (again, both simple and with a spawn).

check for bourne shell, because bourne shell is the smallest
common divisor for bash/ksh/sh.

If you want to look at our launch and MPI process startup times, you can do so with two MCA params:
OMPI_MCA_orte_timing: set it to anything non-zero and you will get the launch time for different steps in the job launch procedure. The degree of detail depends on the launch environment. rsh will provide you with the average, min, and max launch time for the daemons. SLURM block launches the daemon, so you only get the time to launch the daemons and the total time to launch the job. Ditto for bproc. TM looks more like rsh. Only those four environments are currently supported - anyone interested in extending this capability to other environs is welcome to do so. In all cases, you also get the time to setup the job for launch.
OMPI_MCA_ompi_timing: set it to anything non-zero and you will get the time for mpi_init to reach the compound registry command, the time to execute that command, the time to go from our stage1 barrier to the stage2 barrier, and the time to go from the stage2 barrier to the end of mpi_init. This will be output for each process, so you'll have to compile any statistics on your own. Note: if someone develops a nice parser to do so, it would be really appreciated if you could/would share!
This commit was SVN r12302.
This patch will cause a problem for cnos, however, as there we want to specifically tell the backends to be "null". I'm working on that issue.
This commit was SVN r12225.
I have tested on rsh, slurm, bproc, and tm. Bproc continues to have a problem (will be asking for help there).
Gridengine compiles but I cannot test (believe it likely will run).
Poe and xgrid compile to the extent they can without the proper include files.
