We ran into a case where the OMPI SVN trunk grew a new acceptable MCA
parameter value, but this new value was not accepted on the v1.6
branch (hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action -- on the trunk it accepts
the value "silent", but on the older v1.6 branch, it doesn't). If you
set "hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action=silent" in the default MCA
params file and then accidentally ran with the v1.6 branch, every OMPI
executable (including ompi_info) just failed because hwloc_base_open()
would say "hey, 'silent' is not a valid value for
hwloc_base_mem_bind_failure_action!". Kaboom.
The only problem is that it didn't give you any indication of where
this value was being set. Quite maddening, from a user perspective.
So we changed the ompi_info handles this case. If any framework open
function return OMPI_ERR_BAD_PARAM (either because its base MCA params
got a bad value or because one of its component register/open
functions return OMPI_ERR_BAD_PARAM), ompi_info will stop, print out
a warning that it received and error, and then dump out the parameters
that it has received so far in the framework that had a problem.
At a minimum, this will show the user the MCA param that had an error
(it's usually the last one), and ''where it was set from'' (so that
they can go fix it).
We updated ompi_info to check for O???_ERR_BAD_PARAM from each from
the framework opens. Also updated the doxygen docs in mca.h for this
O???_BAD_PARAM behavior. And we noticed that mca.h had MCA_SUCCESS
and MCA_ERR_??? codes. Why? I think we used them in exactly one
place in the code base (mca_base_components_open.c). So we deleted
those and just used the normal OPAL_* codes instead.
While we were doing this, we also cleaned up a little memory
management during ompi_info/orte-info/opal-info finalization.
Valgrind still reports a truckload of memory still in use at ompi_info
termination, but they mostly look to be components not freeing
memory/resources properly (and outside the scope of this fix).

ompi_comm_split(), and the entire set of periods from the old
communicator have already been copied to the new communicator. But up
here in mca_topo_base_cart_sub(), we need to subset the periods that
are actually stored on the new communicator according to remain_dims
(just like we did for the set of dimensions).
This commit renames a few variables to be a little less misleading,
and then adds a loop to copy over the periods information. I could
have added this into the first loop (that subset-copies the
dimensions), but this code is already confusing enough and this is not
a performance-critical section: so I made it a new loop.
Note that all the topo code will be revamped a bit when the new
MPI-2.2 topo stuff (currently off in a mercurial branch) finally makes
it back to the SVN trunk. But that new stuff will only get to v1.7 --
this commit will need to be CMR'ed to v1.6.x.

some new common OpenFabrics functionality to ompi/mca/common/verbs.
Also move everything that was in ompi/mca/common/ofautils under
ompi/mca/common/verbs.
* Move ofautils -> verbs
* Add new functionality in ompi/mca/common/verbs (see doxygen
* comments in ompi/mca/common/verbs/common_verbs.h for details):
* ompi_common_verbs_find_ibv_ports()
* ompi_common_verbs_port_bw()
* ompi_common_verbs_mtu()
* '''If you're writing verbs-based code, you should be using this
common functionality'''
* Adapt openib BTL to use some trivial common functionality in
common/verbs
* Don't use "#ifdef OMPI_HAVE_RDMAOE",use
"#if defined(HAVE_IBV_LINK_LAYER_ETHERNET)"
* Update the following to include/link against common/verbs
* bcol/iboffload
* sbgp/ibnet
* btl/openib

The project includes following components and frameworks:
- ML Collective component
- NETPATTERNS and COMMPATTERNS common components
- BCOL framework
- SBGP framework
Note: By default the ML collective component is disabled. In order to enable
new collectives user should bump up the priority of ml component (coll_ml_priority)

technically this is a necessary thing to do, it wasn't a tragedy that
we didn't have it because err was initialize to 0 in the beginning of
the functions where this problem occurred. Also, OMPI will likely
abort if one of the MCA_PML_CALLs actually incurs an error (or, even
if it doesn't, MPI doesn't define the behavior anyway ;-) ).
But looking forward to an FT-aware world, fixing this issue is a Good
Thing. Many thanks to Hristo Iliev for pointing out the issue.

- OMPI_SUCCESS
- OMPI_ERROR
- OMPI_ERR_RESOURCE_BUSY
If an "OMPI_ERR_OUT_OF_RESOURCE" occurs, the request is added to the pending list, and will be handled later. An error message
should not be printed to the user in this case. This is not an error, but rather a notification of a possible valid condition.
Only in the case of "OMPI_ERROR" should it be printed to the user.

btl_openib_connect_udcm when notifying not to listen to an fd to ensure
that the main thread does not continue until the service thread has
processed the message
Adds ability to send message to openib async thread to tell it to
ignore the ERR state on a specific QP. Adds this call to udcm_module_finalize
so when we set the error state on the QP it doesn't cause the
openib async thread to abort the mpi program prematurely
