This is a fairly intrusive change, but outside of the moving of opal/event to opal/mca/event, the only changes involved (a) changing all calls to opal_event functions to reflect the new framework instead, and (b) ensuring that all opal_event_t objects are properly constructed since they are now true opal_objects.
Note: Shiqing has just returned from vacation and has not yet had a chance to complete the Windows integration. Thus, this commit almost certainly breaks Windows support on the trunk. However, I want this to have a chance to soak for as long as possible before I become less available a week from today (going to be at a class for 5 days, and thus will only be sparingly available) so we can find and fix any problems.
Biggest change is moving the libevent code from opal/event to a new opal/mca/event framework. This was done to make it much easier to update libevent in the future. New versions can be inserted as a new component and tested in parallel with the current version until validated, then we can remove the earlier version if we so choose. This is a statically built framework ala installdirs, so only one component will build at a time. There is no selection logic - the sole compiled component simply loads its function pointers into the opal_event struct.
I have gone thru the code base and converted all the libevent calls I could find. However, I cannot compile nor test every environment. It is therefore quite likely that errors remain in the system. Please keep an eye open for two things:
1. compile-time errors: these will be obvious as calls to the old functions (e.g., opal_evtimer_new) must be replaced by the new framework APIs (e.g., opal_event.evtimer_new)
2. run-time errors: these will likely show up as segfaults due to missing constructors on opal_event_t objects. It appears that it became a typical practice for people to "init" an opal_event_t by simply using memset to zero it out. This will no longer work - you must either OBJ_NEW or OBJ_CONSTRUCT an opal_event_t. I tried to catch these cases, but may have missed some. Believe me, you'll know when you hit it.
There is also the issue of the new libevent "no recursion" behavior. As I described on a recent email, we will have to discuss this and figure out what, if anything, we need to do.

(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.

Basically, the remaining problem turned out to be:
1. closing stdout/stderr during orte_finalize of mpirun
2. inadvertently setting up a write event on fd = -1
3. devising a scheme to more accurately track when the stdin write event was active vs closed so it only got released once
This passed prelim MTT testing by Jeff and Tim, but should soak for awhile before migrating to 1.3.

1. coordination of job completion notification to include a requirement for both waitpid detection AND notification that all iof pipes have been closed by the app
2. change of all IOF read and write events to be non-persistent so they can properly be shutdown and restarted only when required
3. addition of a delay (currently set to 10ms) before restarting the stdin read event. This was required to ensure that the stdout, stderr, and stddiag read events had an opportunity to be serviced in scenarios where large files are attached to stdin.
This commit was SVN r20064.
1. modify the iof to track when a proc actually closes all of its open iof output pipes. When this occurs, notify the odls that the proc's iof is complete. This is done via a zero-time event so that we can step out of the read event before processing the notification.
2. in the odls, modify the waitpid callback so it only flags that it was called. Add a function to receive the iof-complete notification, and a function that checks for both iof complete and waitpid callback before declaring a proc fully terminated. This ensures that we read and deliver -all- of the IO prior to declaring the job complete.
Also modified the odls call to orte_iof.close (and the component's implementation) so it only closes stdin, leaving the other io channels alone. This fixes the other half of the known problem.
This should fix the ticket on this subject, but I'll wait to close it pending further testing in the trunk.
This commit was SVN r19991.
The segv was caused by the fact that we don't really know which daemon failed to start (at least, in most cases), so we didn't set a pointer to the aborted proc object. All we really wanted, though, was to ensure that mpirun returned a non-zero exit status, so the fix was to simply return the default error status.
This commit was SVN r19754.
This needs some soak time to ensure we haven't opened any race conditions. I tried to loop everything in the shutdown procedure through that trigger event call to ensure it all goes through the one-time locks as it did before so that someone hitting ctrl-c when we are already shutting down shouldn't cause problems. Just want to let people use it for awhile to verify.

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.
Add a new function to opal_progress that tells us our recursion depth to support that solution.
Yes, I know this sounds picky, but good ol' Jeff managed to make it happen by driving his cluster near to death...
Also ensure that we declare "failed" for the daemon job when daemons fail instead of the application job. This is important so that orte knows that it cannot use xcast to tell daemons to "exit", nor should it expect all daemons to respond. Otherwise, it is possible to hang.
After lots of testing, decide to default (again) to slurm detecting failed orteds. This proved necessary to avoid rather annoying hangs that were difficult to recover from. There are conditions where slurm will fail to launch all daemons (slurm folks are working on it), and yet again, good ol' Jeff managed to find both of them.
Thanks you Jeff! :-/

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.
This commit was SVN r18434.
Basically, the method employed here is to have a recv create a zero-time timer event that causes the event library to execute a function that processes the message once the recv returns. Thus, any action taken as a result of processing the message occur outside of a recv.
Created two new macros to assist:
ORTE_MESSAGE_EVENT: creates the zero-time event, passing info in a new orte_message_event_t object
ORTE_PROGRESSED_WAIT: while waiting for specified conditions, just calls progress so messages can be recv'd.
Also fixed the failed_launch function as we no longer block in the orted callback function. Updated the error messages to reflect revision. No change in API to this function, but PLM "owners" may want to check their internal error messages to avoid duplication and excessive output.
This has been tested on Mac, TM, and SLURM.

single threaded builds. In its default configuration, all this does
is ensure that there's at least a good chance of threads building
based on non-threaded development (since the variable names will be
checked). There is also code to make sure that a "mutex" is never
"double locked" when using the conditional macro mutex operations.
This is off by default because there are a number of places in both
ORTE and OMPI where this alarm spews mega bytes of errors on a
simple test. So we have some work to do on our path towards
thread support.
Also removed the macro versions of the non-conditional thread locks,
as the only places they were used, the author of the code intended
to use the conditional thread locks. So now you have upper-case
macros for conditional thread locks and lowercase functions for
non-conditional locks. Simple, right? :).
