API is still a bit unstable and may change.
- Add a primitive "first use" component that simply has each process
"touch" the pages that they want to use, thereby [hopefully] locking
them locally to a specific processor
- Add hooks in ompi_mpi_init to enable memory affinity when processor
affinity is used.
- Added hooks in ompi_mpi_finalize to shut down memory affinity when
it was initialized during ompi_mpi_init.
- Added right hooks in ompi_info to display maffinity components.

cast the return to an int in the C++ test case, just in case.
* C++ sucks. If compiling with C++ on some GNU compiler/linker
combos, the initialize hook isn't automagically fired for the
malloc code. Add a backup setting during opal_init, which is
early enough not to cause any damage.

* make sure LIBS contains -lpmapi before checking for pm_cycles()
* reorder aix functions so that we don't use get_usecs() before we
define it
This commit was SVN r6970.
* Make ompi_info list timer components
* Remove flag to display whether we have memory intercepts (components are
already listed), until we can figure out how to do it *after* the
components are opened.

on all glibc systems (tested with x86 and x86_64 with a couple of C++
compilers). While not as ideal as the malloc_hooks method, it does
have the advantage of working with threads.
* Modified malloc_hooks component to properly follow prefix rule. No
functionality changes
* Make the memory framework only chose one component, and modify all
components to set priority to 20, except malloc-interpose, which is
at 10. This means that on Linux, malloc_hooks will be used unless
threads are enabled, since I think malloc_hooks is a better design
choice when we can use it

to opal_progress() to use the timers instead of a tick count for deciding
whether to call the event loop or not. Currently supported platforms are:
- solaris (x86 / sparc)
- Linux (x86 / x86_64 / IA64)
- Mac OS X (x86 / Power PC)

* Add memory intercept routines for Darwin using the official Darwin
API (thanks to Drew Gallatin from Myricom for pointing me to some
information from Apple engineers about how to make this work)
* add debugging output to functionality test

all the different cases (curses to RedHat for continually changing
the glibc API!)
- Minor fixes for the Solaris paffinity component
This commit was SVN r6894.
* Add base to memory framework so that we can do something sane with
ompi_info
* Updated ompi_info to print components for memory framework and
show whether we have memory hooks active or not.

- Simple components for getting and setting processor affinity of a
process; does *not* include scheduling decisions
- No one in the OMPI code base invokes the framework yet
- Added linux component for using sched_setaffinity()
- Added shell solaris component that will use processor_bind()
(currently .ompi_ignore'd)

ompi/).
- There's still a handful of places that have orte/ #include files;
still need to clean those up
- A lot of places still use ompi/include/constants.h -- those need to
be converted over to use OPAL_ return codes and then switch to the
opal constants.h. This commit is the first few steps towards
that...

that were set on the command line. This was techinically exactly the
way the code was designed, but it certainly violated the Law of Least
Astonishment (even to its designer ;-) ). So now if you execute
something like this:
mpirun -mca pls_rsh_debug 1 -np 4 hello
You'll see debugging output from the rsh pls component, as you would
expect (this was not previously the case -- the MCA pls_rsh_debug
parame would be set to 1 in the 4 spawned hello processes, but *not*
in the orterun process).
More specifically, MCA parameters will be set in the orterun process
in the following cases:
- The new command line switch "--gmca" (or "-gmca") is used,
indicating that the MCA parameter is "global". --gmca also means
that that MCA parameter will be applied to all context app's. For
example:
mpirun -gmca foo bar -np 1 hello : -np 2 goodbye
The foo MCA param will be set in both the hello and goodbye
processes.
- If there is only one context app. For example:
mpirun -mca pls_rsh_debug 1 -np 4 hello
will set pls_rsh_debug to 1 in both the orterun process and the 4
spawned hello processes.
Also added a few more comments inside orterun to document a somewhat
confusing use of a state variable in a recursive case.

- new preferred API calls for registering MCA parameters are
mca_base_param_reg_{int|string} and
mca_base_param_reg_{int|string}_name.
- See opal/mca/base/mca_base_param.h for docs on new calls.
- Can now register and lookup a value at the same time.
- Can now mark a parameter "read only" at registration time
- Can now mark a parameter "internal" at registration time
- Can now associate a help message with the parameter at registration
time; displayed in the ompi_info output.
The old API calls are still available for backwards compatibility
(mca_base_param_register_{int|string}. They will eventually be
removed -- all developers are encouraged to use the new APIs from here
on out and replace any old calls with the new API.
Some params were also renamed -- the previous convention of using
"base_" as a prefix for any param that was not associated with a
component is henceforth deprecated. Instead, use one of the following
prefixes:
mca: for anything in the MCA base itself
opal: for anything in OPAL
orte: for anything in ORTE
mpi: for anything in OMPI

* Add ability to completely disable libltdl (the dlopen code to load
dynamic shared objects) to configure: --disable-dlopen
* Added MCA param (component_disable_dlopen) to disable DSO loading
at runtime
* Made the event library behave in some not-completely-erroneous way
on platforms where it has absolutely no eventops support (ie, no
select, poll, or epoll)
* Disabled orte_wait, opal_few, and opal_daemon_init code on
platforms without fork, waitpid support. All non-init functions
will return OPMI_ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED
* Disable orteprobe tool when fork or pipe aren't supported
This commit was SVN r6490.
* rename ompi_malloc to opal_malloc
* rename ompi_numtostr to opal_numtostr
* start of rename of ompi_environ to opal_environ

* rename ompi_basename to opal_basename
* rename ompi bitop functions to opal
* rename ompi_cmd_line to opal_cmd_line
* rename ompi_sizet2int to opal_sizet2int
* rename orte_daemon_init to opal_daemon_init
* rename ompi_few to opal_few

- move mpool and allocator frameworks back to ompi (from opal)
- specialize the ompi_free_list class to use an mpool instance
- un-specialize opal_free_list to *not* use mpool; just use malloc/free
