Use of the old ompi_free_list_t and ompi_free_list_item_t is
deprecated. These classes will be removed in a future commit.
This commit updates the entire code base to use opal_free_list_t and
opal_free_list_item_t.

WHAT: Open our low-level communication infrastructure by moving all necessary components (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool) down in OPAL
All the components required for inter-process communications are currently deeply integrated in the OMPI layer. Several groups/institutions have express interest in having a more generic communication infrastructure, without all the OMPI layer dependencies. This communication layer should be made available at a different software level, available to all layers in the Open MPI software stack. As an example, our ORTE layer could replace the current OOB and instead use the BTL directly, gaining access to more reactive network interfaces than TCP. Similarly, external software libraries could take advantage of our highly optimized AM (active message) communication layer for their own purpose. UTK with support from Sandia, developped a version of Open MPI where the entire communication infrastucture has been moved down to OPAL (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool). Most of the moved components have been updated to match the new schema, with few exceptions (mainly BTLs where I have no way of compiling/testing them). Thus, the completion of this RFC is tied to being able to completing this move for all BTLs. For this we need help from the rest of the Open MPI community, especially those supporting some of the BTLs. A non-exhaustive list of BTLs that qualify here is: mx, portals4, scif, udapl, ugni, usnic.

Major Changes:
--------------
* Added C/R-enabled Debugging support.
Enabled with the --enable-crdebug flag. See the following website for more information:
http://osl.iu.edu/research/ft/crdebug/
* Added Stable Storage (SStore) framework for checkpoint storage
* 'central' component does a direct to central storage save
* 'stage' component stages checkpoints to central storage while the application continues execution.
* 'stage' supports offline compression of checkpoints before moving (sstore_stage_compress)
* 'stage' supports local caching of checkpoints to improve automatic recovery (sstore_stage_caching)
* Added Compression (compress) framework to support
* Add two new ErrMgr recovery policies
* {{{crmig}}} C/R Process Migration
* {{{autor}}} C/R Automatic Recovery
* Added the {{{ompi-migrate}}} command line tool to support the {{{crmig}}} ErrMgr component
* Added CR MPI Ext functions (enable them with {{{--enable-mpi-ext=cr}}} configure option)
* {{{OMPI_CR_Checkpoint}}} (Fixes trac:2342)
* {{{OMPI_CR_Restart}}}
* {{{OMPI_CR_Migrate}}} (may need some more work for mapping rules)
* {{{OMPI_CR_INC_register_callback}}} (Fixes trac:2192)
* {{{OMPI_CR_Quiesce_start}}}
* {{{OMPI_CR_Quiesce_checkpoint}}}
* {{{OMPI_CR_Quiesce_end}}}
* {{{OMPI_CR_self_register_checkpoint_callback}}}
* {{{OMPI_CR_self_register_restart_callback}}}
* {{{OMPI_CR_self_register_continue_callback}}}
* The ErrMgr predicted_fault() interface has been changed to take an opal_list_t of ErrMgr defined types. This will allow us to better support a wider range of fault prediction services in the future.
* Add a progress meter to:
* FileM rsh (filem_rsh_process_meter)
* SnapC full (snapc_full_progress_meter)
* SStore stage (sstore_stage_progress_meter)
* Added 2 new command line options to ompi-restart
* --showme : Display the full command line that would have been exec'ed.
* --mpirun_opts : Command line options to pass directly to mpirun. (Fixes trac:2413)
* Deprecated some MCA params:
* crs_base_snapshot_dir deprecated, use sstore_stage_local_snapshot_dir
* snapc_base_global_snapshot_dir deprecated, use sstore_base_global_snapshot_dir
* snapc_base_global_shared deprecated, use sstore_stage_global_is_shared
* snapc_base_store_in_place deprecated, replaced with different components of SStore
* snapc_base_global_snapshot_ref deprecated, use sstore_base_global_snapshot_ref
* snapc_base_establish_global_snapshot_dir deprecated, never well supported
* snapc_full_skip_filem deprecated, use sstore_stage_skip_filem
Minor Changes:
--------------
* Fixes trac:1924 : {{{ompi-restart}}} now recognizes path prefixed checkpoint handles and does the right thing.
* Fixes trac:2097 : {{{ompi-info}}} should now report all available CRS components
* Fixes trac:2161 : Manual checkpoint movement. A user can 'mv' a checkpoint directory from the original location to another and still restart from it.
* Fixes trac:2208 : Honor various TMPDIR varaibles instead of forcing {{{/tmp}}}
* Move {{{ompi_cr_continue_like_restart}}} to {{{orte_cr_continue_like_restart}}} to be more flexible in where this should be set.
* opal_crs_base_metadata_write* functions have been moved to SStore to support a wider range of metadata handling functionality.
* Cleanup the CRS framework and components to work with the SStore framework.
* Cleanup the SnapC framework and components to work with the SStore framework (cleans up these code paths considerably).
* Add 'quiesce' hook to CRCP for a future enhancement.
* We now require a BLCR version that supports {{{cr_request_file()}}} or {{{cr_request_checkpoint()}}} in order to make the code more maintainable. Note that {{{cr_request_file}}} has been deprecated since 0.7.0, so we prefer to use {{{cr_request_checkpoint()}}}.
* Add optional application level INC callbacks (registered through the CR MPI Ext interface).
* Increase the {{{opal_cr_thread_sleep_wait}}} parameter to 1000 microseconds to make the C/R thread less aggressive.
* {{{opal-restart}}} now looks for cache directories before falling back on stable storage when asked.
* {{{opal-restart}}} also support local decompression before restarting
* {{{orte-checkpoint}}} now uses the SStore framework to work with the metadata
* {{{orte-restart}}} now uses the SStore framework to work with the metadata
* Remove the {{{orte-restart}}} preload option. This was removed since the user only needs to select the 'stage' component in order to support this functionality.
* Since the '-am' parameter is saved in the metadata, {{{ompi-restart}}} no longer hard codes {{{-am ft-enable-cr}}}.
* Fix {{{hnp}}} ErrMgr so that if a previous component in the stack has 'fixed' the problem, then it should be skipped.
* Make sure to decrement the number of 'num_local_procs' in the orted when one goes away.
* odls now checks the SStore framework to see if it needs to load any checkpoint files before launching (to support 'stage'). This separates the SStore logic from the --preload-[binary|files] options.
* Add unique IDs to the named pipes established between the orted and the app in SnapC. This is to better support migration and automatic recovery activities.
* Improve the checks for 'already checkpointing' error path.
* A a recovery output timer, to show how long it takes to restart a job
* Do a better job of cleaning up the old session directory on restart.
* Add a local module to the autor and crmig ErrMgr components. These small modules prevent the 'orted' component from attempting a local recovery (Which does not work for MPI apps at the moment)
* Add a fix for bounding the checkpointable region between MPI_Init and MPI_Finalize.

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.

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.
