pkg{data,lib,includedir}, use our own ompi{data,lib,includedir}, which is
always set to {datadir,libdir,includedir}/openmpi. This will keep us from
having help files in prefix/share/open-rte when building without Open MPI,
but in prefix/share/openmpi when building with Open MPI.
This commit was SVN r30140.
Fix two problems that surfaced when using direct launch under SLURM:
1. locally store our own data because some BTLs want to retrieve
it during add_procs rather than use what they have internally
2. cleanup MPI_Abort so it correctly passes the error status all
the way down to the actual exit. When someone implemented the
"abort_peers" API, they left out the error status. So we lost
it at that point and *always* exited with a status of 1. This
forces a change to the API to include the status.

This commit was SVN r29405.
However, tools such as mpirun don't need it, and definitely shouldn't be using it. Ditto for procs launched by mpirun.
We used to have a way of dealing with this - we had the PMI component check to see if the process was the HNP or was launched by an HNP. Sadly, moving the OPAL db framework removed
that ability as OPAL has no notion of HNPs or proc type.
So add a boolean flag to the db_base_select API that allows us to restrict selection to "local" components. This gives the PMI component the ability to reject itself as required. W
e then need to pass that param into the ess_base_std_app call so it can pass it all down.

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.
cmr:v1.7.4:reviewer=rhc:subject=Cleanup handling of modex data
This commit was SVN r29274.
Features:
- Support for an override parameter file (openmpi-mca-param-override.conf).
Variable values in this file can not be overridden by any file or environment
value.
- Support for boolean, unsigned, and unsigned long long variables.
- Support for true/false values.
- Support for enumerations on integer variables.
- Support for MPIT scope, verbosity, and binding.
- Support for command line source.
- Support for setting variable source via the environment using
OMPI_MCA_SOURCE_<var name>=source (either command or file:filename)
- Cleaner API.
- Support for variable groups (equivalent to MPIT categories).
Notes:
- Variables must be created with a backing store (char **, int *, or bool *)
that must live at least as long as the variable.
- Creating a variable with the MCA_BASE_VAR_FLAG_SETTABLE enables the use of
mca_base_var_set_value() to change the value.
- String values are duplicated when the variable is registered. It is up to
the caller to free the original value if necessary. The new value will be
freed by the mca_base_var system and must not be freed by the user.
- Variables with constant scope may not be settable.
- Variable groups (and all associated variables) are deregistered when the
component is closed or the component repository item is freed. This
prevents a segmentation fault from accessing a variable after its component
is unloaded.
- After some discussion we decided we should remove the automatic registration
of component priority variables. Few component actually made use of this
feature.
- The enumerator interface was updated to be general enough to handle
future uses of the interface.
- The code to generate ompi_info output has been moved into the MCA variable
system. See mca_base_var_dump().

This commit also modifies the rmaps framework. The following variables were
moved from ppr and lama: rmaps_base_pernode, rmaps_base_n_pernode,
rmaps_base_n_persocket. Both lama and ppr create synonyms for these variables.
This commit was SVN r28236.
A few changes were required to support this move:
1. the PMI component used to identify rte-related data (e.g., host name, bind level) and package them as a unit to reduce the number of PMI keys. This code was moved up to the ORTE layer as the OPAL layer has no understanding of these concepts. In addition, the component locally stored data based on process jobid/vpid - this could no longer be supported (see below for the solution).
2. the hash component was updated to use the new opal_identifier_t instead of orte_process_name_t as its index for storing data in the hash tables. Previously, we did a hash on the vpid and stored the data in a 32-bit hash table. In the revised system, we don't see a separate "vpid" field - we only have a 64-bit opaque value. The orte_process_name_t hash turned out to do nothing useful, so we now store the data in a 64-bit hash table. Preliminary tests didn't show any identifiable change in behavior or performance, but we'll have to see if a move back to the 32-bit table is required at some later time.
3. the db framework was a "select one" system. However, since the PMI component could no longer use its internal storage system, the framework has now been changed to a "select many" mode of operation. This allows the hash component to handle all internal storage, while the PMI component only handles pushing/pulling things from the PMI system. This was something we had planned for some time - when fetching data, we first check internal storage to see if we already have it, and then automatically go to the global system to look for it if we don't. Accordingly, the framework was provided with a custom query function used during "select" that lets you seperately specify the "store" and "fetch" ordering.
4. the ORTE grpcomm and ess/pmi components, and the nidmap code, were updated to work with the new db framework and to specify internal/global storage options.
No changes were made to the MPI layer, except for modifying the ORTE component of the OMPI/rte framework to support the new db framework.
This commit was SVN r28112.
