Create a new required key in the OMPI layer for retrieving a "node id" from the database. ALL RTE'S MUST DEFINE THIS KEY. This allows us to compute locality in the MPI layer, which is necessary when we do things like intercomm_create.

configure-time dynamic allocation of flags. The net result for platforms
which only support BTL-based communication is a reduction of 8*nprocs bytes
per process. Platforms which support both MTLs and BTLs will not see
a space reduction, but will now be able to safely run both the MTL and BTL
side-by-side, which will prove useful.
This commit was SVN r29100.
So shift the cutoff param to the MPI layer, and have it solely determine whether or not we call modex_recv on the hostname. If comm_world is of size greater than the cutoff, then we don't automatically retrieve the hostname when we build the ompi_proc_t for a process - instead, we fill the hostname entry on first call to modex_recv for that process.
The param is now "ompi_hostname_cutoff=N", where N=number of procs for cutoff.

The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 3729 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/3729
* add a new MCA param orte_hostname_cutoff to specify the number of nodes at which we stop including hostnames. This defaults to INT_MAX => always include hostnames. If a value is given, then we will include hostnames for any allocation smaller than the given limit.
* remove ompi_proc_get_hostname. Replace all occurrences with a direct link to ompi_proc_t's proc_hostname, protected by appropriate "if NULL"
* modify the OMPI-ORTE integration component so that any call to modex_recv automatically loads the ompi_proc_t->proc_hostname field as well as returning the requested info. Thus, any process whose modex info you retrieve will automatically receive the hostname. Note that on-demand retrieval is still enabled - i.e., if we are running under direct launch with PMI, the hostname will be fetched upon first call to modex_recv, and then the ompi_proc_t->proc_hostname field will be loaded
* removed a stale MCA param "mpi_keep_peer_hostnames" that was no longer used anywhere in the code base
* added an envar lookup in ess/pmi for the number of nodes in the allocation. Sadly, PMI itself doesn't provide that info, so we have to get it a different way. Currently, we support PBS-based systems and SLURM - for any other, rank0 will emit a warning and we assume max number of daemons so we will always retain hostnames
This commit was SVN r29052.
This creates a really bad scaling behavior. Users have found a nearly 20% launch time differential between mpirun and PMI, with PMI being the slower method. Some of the problem is attributable to poor exchange algorithms in RM's like Slurm and Alps, but we make things worse by calling "get" so many times.
Nathan (with a tad advice from me) has attempted to alleviate this problem by reducing the number of "get" calls. This required the following changes:
* upon first request for data, have the OPAL db pmi component fetch and decode *all* the info from a given remote proc. It turned out we weren't caching the info, so we would continually request it and only decode the piece we needed for the immediate request. We now decode all the info and push it into the db hash component for local storage - and then all subsequent retrievals are fulfilled locally
* reduced the amount of data by eliminating the exchange of the OMPI_ARCH value if heterogeneity is not enabled. This was used solely as a check so we would error out if the system wasn't actually homogeneous, which was fine when we thought there was no cost in doing the check. Unfortunately, at large scale and with direct launch, there is a non-zero cost of making this test. We are open to finding a compromise (perhaps turning the test off if requested?), if people feel strongly about performing the test
* reduced the amount of RTE data being automatically fetched, and fetched the rest only upon request. In particular, we no longer immediately fetch the hostname (which is only used for error reporting), but instead get it when needed. Likewise for the RML uri as that info is only required for some (not all) environments. In addition, we no longer fetch the locality unless required, relying instead on the PMI clique info to tell us who is on our local node (if additional info is required, the fetch is performed when a modex_recv is issued).
Again, all this only impacts direct launch - all the info is provided when launched via mpirun as there is no added cost to getting it
Barring objections, we may move this (plus any required other pieces) to the 1.7 branch once it soaks for an appropriate time.

ompi_show_help, because opal_show_help is replaced with an
aggregating version when using ORTE, so there's no reason to
directly call orte_show_help.
This commit was SVN r28051.
Update all the orte ess components to remove their associated APIs for retrieving proc data. Update the grpcomm API to reflect transfer of set/get modex info to the db framework.
Note that this doesn't recreate the old GPR. This is strictly a local db storage that may (at some point) obtain any missing data from the local daemon as part of an async methodology. The framework allows us to experiment with such methods without perturbing the default one.
This commit was SVN r26678.
* Remove paffinity, maffinity, and carto frameworks -- they've been
wholly replaced by hwloc.
* Move ompi_mpi_init() affinity-setting/checking code down to ORTE.
* Update sm, smcuda, wv, and openib components to no longer use carto.
Instead, use hwloc data. There are still optimizations possible in
the sm/smcuda BTLs (i.e., making multiple mpools). Also, the old
carto-based code found out how many NUMA nodes were ''available''
-- not how many were used ''in this job''. The new hwloc-using
code computes the same value -- it was not updated to calculate how
many NUMA nodes are used ''by this job.''
* Note that I cannot compile the smcuda and wv BTLs -- I ''think''
they're right, but they need to be verified by their owners.
* The openib component now does a bunch of stuff to figure out where
"near" OpenFabrics devices are. '''THIS IS A CHANGE IN DEFAULT
BEHAVIOR!!''' and still needs to be verified by OpenFabrics vendors
(I do not have a NUMA machine with an OpenFabrics device that is a
non-uniform distance from multiple different NUMA nodes).
* Completely rewrite the OMPI_Affinity_str() routine from the
"affinity" mpiext extension. This extension now understands
hyperthreads; the output format of it has changed a bit to reflect
this new information.
* Bunches of minor changes around the code base to update names/types
from maffinity/paffinity-based names to hwloc-based names.
* Add some helper functions into the hwloc base, mainly having to do
with the fact that we have the hwloc data reporting ''all''
topology information, but sometimes you really only want the
(online | available) data.

Roll in the ORTE state machine. Remove last traces of opal_sos. Remove UTK epoch code.
Please see the various emails about the state machine change for details. I'll send something out later with more info on the new arch.
This commit was SVN r26242.
Use hwloc to obtain the cpuset for each process during mpi_init, and share that info in the modex. As it arrives, use a new opal_hwloc_base utility function to parse the value against the local proc's cpuset and determine where they overlap. Cache the value in the pmap object as it may be referenced multiple times.
Thus, the return value from orte_ess.proc_get_locality is a 16-bit bitmask that describes the resources being shared with you. This bitmask can be tested using the macros in opal/mca/paffinity/paffinity.h
Locality is available for all procs, whether launched via mpirun or directly with an external launcher such as slurm or aprun.

(OMPI_ERR_* = OPAL_SOS_GET_ERR_CODE(ret)), since the return value could be a
SOS-encoded error. The OPAL_SOS_GET_ERR_CODE() takes in a SOS error and returns
back the native error code.
* Since OPAL_SUCCESS is preserved by SOS, also change all calls of the form
(OPAL_ERROR == ret) to (OPAL_SUCCESS != ret). We thus avoid having to
decode 'ret' to get the native error code.
This commit was SVN r23162.
* Don't build the pstat component if all defines needed aren't there.
* Update platform file to work better
* Work around two places that depended on modex being operational
This commit was SVN r22536.
Remove all architecture references from ORTE and put them back in the modex using modex_send/recv calls.
Hetero operations are now fully supported again. Comm_spawn now works up to the point where it segfaults due to an error in the CID code - which now allows Edgar to dig further! :-)

OMPI
and a language agnostic part in OPAL. The convertor is completely
moved into OPAL. This offers several benefits as described in RFC
http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2009/07/6387.php
namely:
- Fewer basic types (int* and float* types, boolean and wchar
- Fixing naming scheme to ompi-nomenclature.
- Usability outside of the ompi-layer.
- Due to the fixed nature of simple opal types, their information is
completely
known at compile time and therefore constified
- With fewer datatypes (22), the actual sizes of bit-field types may be
reduced
from 64 to 32 bits, allowing reorganizing the opal_datatype
structure, eliminating holes and keeping data required in convertor
(upon send/recv) in one cacheline...
This has implications to the convertor-datastructure and other parts
of the code.
- Several performance tests have been run, the netpipe latency does not
change with
this patch on Linux/x86-64 on the smoky cluster.
- Extensive tests have been done to verify correctness (no new
regressions) using:
1. mpi_test_suite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and
ompi-ddt:
a. running both trunk and ompi-ddt resulted in no differences
(except for MPI_SHORT_INT and MPI_TYPE_MIX_LB_UB do now run
correctly).
b. with --enable-memchecker and running under valgrind (one buglet
when run with static found in test-suite, commited)
2. ibm testsuite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and ompi-ddt:
all passed (except for the dynamic/ tests failed!! as trunk/MTT)
3. compilation and usage of HDF5 tests on Jaguar using PGI and
PathScale compilers.
4. compilation and usage on Scicortex.
- Please note, that for the heterogeneous case, (-m32 compiled
binaries/ompi), neither
ompi-trunk, nor ompi-ddt branch would successfully launch.

- Delete unnecessary header files using
contrib/check_unnecessary_headers.sh after applying
patches, that include headers, being "lost" due to
inclusion in one of the now deleted headers...
In total 817 files are touched.
In ompi/mpi/c/ header files are moved up into the actual c-file,
where necessary (these are the only additional #include),
otherwise it is only deletions of #include (apart from the above
additions required due to notifier...)
- To get different MCAs (OpenIB, TM, ALPS), an earlier version was
successfully compiled (yesterday) on:
Linux locally using intel-11, gcc-4.3.2 and gcc-SVN + warnings enabled
Smoky cluster (x86-64 running Linux) using PGI-8.0.2 + warnings enabled
Lens cluster (x86-64 running Linux) using Pathscale-3.2 + warnings enabled

Anyway, this is blocking the move: do not include pml.h
if not really needed, aka none of the following used:
mca_pml
MCA_PML_CALL
OMPI_ANY_TAG
OMPI_ANY_SOURCE
OMPI_PROC_NULL
- Notable exceptions (deleting in one header->adding):
- ompi/mca/mtl/psm/

The prior ompi_proc_t structure had a uint8_t flag field in it, where only one
bit was used to flag that a proc was "local". In that context, "local" was
constrained to mean "local to this node".
This commit provides a greater degree of granularity on the term "local", to include tests
to see if the proc is on the same socket, PC board, node, switch, CU (computing
unit), and cluster.
Add #define's to designate which bits stand for which local condition. This
was added to the OPAL layer to avoid conflicting with the proposed movement of
the BTLs. To make it easier to use, a set of macros have been defined - e.g.,
OPAL_PROC_ON_LOCAL_SOCKET - that test the specific bit. These can be used in
the code base to clearly indicate which sense of locality is being considered.
All locations in the code base that looked at the current proc_t field have
been changed to use the new macros.
Also modify the orte_ess modules so that each returns a uint8_t (to match the
ompi_proc_t field) that contains a complete description of the locality of this
proc. Obviously, not all environments will be capable of providing such detailed
info. Thus, getting a "false" from a test for "on_local_socket" may simply
indicate a lack of knowledge.

These are mostly long additions to comments to document what is going on and why, and how/where it may be revised in the future. Just a couple of small, but important, changes to the code itself.
This commit was SVN r18827.
With help from Brian, modify the ompi/proc/proc.c code to be more thread-safe. Remove the list operations from the ompi_proc_t constructor and destructor. Insert list appends to ompi_proc_init and ompi_proc_find_and_add as required, and protect those with thread locks. Let only the ompi_proc_finalize function actually remove objects from the ompi_proc_list.
Cleanup a few places where functions might return without unlocking a thread. Ensure the ompi_proc_world also does an OBJ_RETAIN so that the reference count on any subsequently released object is correct.
This commit was SVN r18816.
1. repair of the linear and direct routed modules
2. repair of the ompi/pubsub/orte module to correctly init routes to the ompi-server, and correctly handle failure to correctly parse the provided ompi-server URI
3. modification of orterun to accept both "file" and "FILE" for designating where the ompi-server URI is to be found - purely a convenience feature
4. resolution of a message ordering problem during the connect/accept handshake that allowed the "send-first" proc to attempt to send to the "recv-first" proc before the HNP had actually updated its routes.
Let this be a further reminder to all - message ordering is NOT guaranteed in the OOB
5. Repair the ompi/dpm/orte module to correctly init routes during connect/accept.
Reminder to all: messages sent to procs in another job family (i.e., started by a different mpirun) are ALWAYS routed through the respective HNPs. As per the comments in orte/routed, this is REQUIRED to maintain connect/accept (where only the root proc on each side is capable of init'ing the routes), allow communication between mpirun's using different routing modules, and to minimize connections on tools such as ompi-server. It is all taken care of "under the covers" by the OOB to ensure that a route back to the sender is maintained, even when the different mpirun's are using different routed modules.
6. corrections in the orte/odls to ensure proper identification of daemons participating in a dynamic launch
7. corrections in build/nidmap to support update of an existing nidmap during dynamic launch
8. corrected implementation of the update_arch function in the ESS, along with consolidation of a number of ESS operations into base functions for easier maintenance. The ability to support info from multiple jobs was added, although we don't currently do so - this will come later to support further fault recovery strategies
9. minor updates to several functions to remove unnecessary and/or no longer used variables and envar's, add some debugging output, etc.
10. addition of a new macro ORTE_PROC_IS_DAEMON that resolves to true if the provided proc is a daemon
There is still more cleanup to be done for efficiency, but this at least works.
Tested on single-node Mac, multi-node SLURM via odin. Tests included connect/accept, publish/lookup/unpublish, comm_spawn, comm_spawn_multiple, and singleton comm_spawn.
Fixes ticket #1256
This commit was SVN r18804.
Update the ESS API so we can update the stored arch's should the modex include that info. Update ompi/proc to check/set the arch for remote procs, and add that function call to mpi_init right after the modex is done.
Setup to allow other grpcomm modules to decide whether or not to add the arch to the modex, and to detect if other entries have been made. If not, then the modex can just fall through. Begin setting up some logic in the "basic" module to handle different arch situations.
For now, default to the "bad" module so we will work in all situations, even though we may be sending around more info than we really require.
This fixes ticket #1340
This commit was SVN r18673.
After much work by Jeff and myself, and quite a lot of discussion, it has become clear that we simply cannot resolve the infinite loops caused by RML-involved subsystems calling orte_output. The original rationale for the change to orte_output has also been reduced by shifting the output of XML-formatted vs human readable messages to an alternative approach.
I have globally replaced the orte_output/ORTE_OUTPUT calls in the code base, as well as the corresponding .h file name. I have test compiled and run this on the various environments within my reach, so hopefully this will prove minimally disruptive.
This commit was SVN r18619.
such, the commit message back to the master SVN repository is fairly
long.
= 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.
