So (finally) consolidate these two fields into one "slots" field. Add a field in orte_job_t to indicate when all the procs for a job will be launched together, so that staged operations can know when MPI operations are allowed.
This commit was SVN r27239.
For those nodes (and *only* those nodes) where the user does *not* specify a slot count, we will set the number of slots according to their direction: either to the number of cores, numas, sockets, or hwthreads. Otherwise, the slot count is set to 1.
Note that the default behavior remains unchanged: in the absence of any value for #slots, and in the absence of any directive to set #slots, we will set #slots=1.

Remove some stale configure.m4's we no longer need.
Optimize the nidmaps a bit by only sending info that has changed each time, instead of sending a complete copy of everything. Makes no difference for the typical MPI job - only impacts things like staged execution where we are sending multiple (possibly many) launch messages.
This commit was SVN r27165.
"num_app_ctx" - the number of app_contexts in the job
"first_rank" - the MPI rank of the first process in each app_context
"np" - the number of procs in each app_context
Still need clarification on the MPI_Init portion of the ticket. Specifically, does the ticket call for returning an error is someone calls MPI_Init more than once in a program? We set a flag to tell us that we have been initialized, but currently never check it.
This commit was SVN r27005.
Update all the orte ess components to remove their associated APIs for retrieving proc data. Update the grpcomm API to reflect transfer of set/get modex info to the db framework.
Note that this doesn't recreate the old GPR. This is strictly a local db storage that may (at some point) obtain any missing data from the local daemon as part of an async methodology. The framework allows us to experiment with such methods without perturbing the default one.
This commit was SVN r26678.
Restore enable-static-ports option by default - the Cray will have to disable it to get around their library issues, but that's just a warning problem as opposed to blocking the build.
This commit was SVN r26606.
* Remove paffinity, maffinity, and carto frameworks -- they've been
wholly replaced by hwloc.
* Move ompi_mpi_init() affinity-setting/checking code down to ORTE.
* Update sm, smcuda, wv, and openib components to no longer use carto.
Instead, use hwloc data. There are still optimizations possible in
the sm/smcuda BTLs (i.e., making multiple mpools). Also, the old
carto-based code found out how many NUMA nodes were ''available''
-- not how many were used ''in this job''. The new hwloc-using
code computes the same value -- it was not updated to calculate how
many NUMA nodes are used ''by this job.''
* Note that I cannot compile the smcuda and wv BTLs -- I ''think''
they're right, but they need to be verified by their owners.
* The openib component now does a bunch of stuff to figure out where
"near" OpenFabrics devices are. '''THIS IS A CHANGE IN DEFAULT
BEHAVIOR!!''' and still needs to be verified by OpenFabrics vendors
(I do not have a NUMA machine with an OpenFabrics device that is a
non-uniform distance from multiple different NUMA nodes).
* Completely rewrite the OMPI_Affinity_str() routine from the
"affinity" mpiext extension. This extension now understands
hyperthreads; the output format of it has changed a bit to reflect
this new information.
* Bunches of minor changes around the code base to update names/types
from maffinity/paffinity-based names to hwloc-based names.
* Add some helper functions into the hwloc base, mainly having to do
with the fact that we have the hwloc data reporting ''all''
topology information, but sometimes you really only want the
(online | available) data.
This commit was SVN r26391.
Fix the state machine to support multiple jobs being simultaneously launched as this is not only required for mapreduce, but can happen under comm-spawn applications as well.
This commit was SVN r26380.
Roll in the ORTE state machine. Remove last traces of opal_sos. Remove UTK epoch code.
Please see the various emails about the state machine change for details. I'll send something out later with more info on the new arch.
This commit was SVN r26242.
Detect the addition of fqdn nodes in the allocation. If not found, then strip all incoming hostnames from daemons of any domain info when matching those names against the names in the node pool.
Leave some protection and "live" diagnostic output in place so we can continue to detect problems across all environments.
This commit was SVN r25557.
Turns out, this isn't necessarily true. The Cray, for example, launches processes in a toroidal pattern, thus causing the daemons to wind up somewhere other than what we thought. Other environments (e.g., slurm) are also capable of such behavior, depending upon the default mapping algorithm they are told to use.
Resolve this problem by making the daemon-to-node assignment in the affected environments when the daemon calls back and tells us what node it is on. Order the nodes in the mapping list so they are in daemon-vpid order as opposed to the order in which they show in the allocation. For environments that don't exhibit this mapping behavior (e.g., rsh), this won't have any impact.
Also, clean up the vm launch procedure a little bit so it more closely aligns with the state machine implementation that is coming, and remove some lingering "slave" code.
This commit was SVN r25551.
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/ProcessPlacement
The wiki page is incomplete at the moment, but I hope to complete it over the next few days. I will provide updates on the devel list. As the wiki page states, the default and most commonly used options remain unchanged (except as noted below). New, esoteric and complex options have been added, but unless you are a true masochist, you are unlikely to use many of them beyond perhaps an initial curiosity-motivated experimentation.
In a nutshell, this commit revamps the map/rank/bind procedure to take into account topology info on the compute nodes. I have, for the most part, preserved the default behaviors, with three notable exceptions:
1. I have at long last bowed my head in submission to the system admin's of managed clusters. For years, they have complained about our default of allowing users to oversubscribe nodes - i.e., to run more processes on a node than allocated slots. Accordingly, I have modified the default behavior: if you are running off of hostfile/dash-host allocated nodes, then the default is to allow oversubscription. If you are running off of RM-allocated nodes, then the default is to NOT allow oversubscription. Flags to override these behaviors are provided, so this only affects the default behavior.
2. both cpus/rank and stride have been removed. The latter was demanded by those who didn't understand the purpose behind it - and I agreed as the users who requested it are no longer using it. The former was removed temporarily pending implementation.
3. vm launch is now the sole method for starting OMPI. It was just too darned hard to maintain multiple launch procedures - maybe someday, provided someone can demonstrate a reason to do so.
As Jeff stated, it is impossible to fully test a change of this size. I have tested it on Linux and Mac, covering all the default and simple options, singletons, and comm_spawn. That said, I'm sure others will find problems, so I'll be watching MTT results until this stabilizes.
This commit was SVN r25476.
ason to return the topology from every daemon. Borrow a page from the --hetero-apps page and let users indicate that the node topology differs by adding a --
hetero-nodes option to mpirun. If the option is set, then every daemon returns topology info. If not set, then only daemon vpid=1 returns it.
We always want one daemon to return the topology as the head node is often different from the compute nodes. Having one daemon return the compute node topolo
gy allows us to detect any such difference. All compute nodes are then set to the same topology.
This commit was SVN r25408.
Don't automatically display the topology for each node when --display-devel-map is set as it can overwhelm the reader. Use a separate flag --display-topo to get it.
This commit was SVN r25396.
Use hwloc to obtain the cpuset for each process during mpi_init, and share that info in the modex. As it arrives, use a new opal_hwloc_base utility function to parse the value against the local proc's cpuset and determine where they overlap. Cache the value in the pmap object as it may be referenced multiple times.
Thus, the return value from orte_ess.proc_get_locality is a 16-bit bitmask that describes the resources being shared with you. This bitmask can be tested using the macros in opal/mca/paffinity/paffinity.h
Locality is available for all procs, whether launched via mpirun or directly with an external launcher such as slurm or aprun.
This commit was SVN r25331.
Over the course of time, usage of static ports got corrupted in several places, the "parent" info got incorrectly reset, etc. So correct all that and get the regex-based wireup going again.
Also, don't pass node lists if static ports aren't enabled - they are of no value to the orted and just create the possibility of overly-long cmd lines.
This commit was SVN r24860.
Rename the memusage sensor plugin to "resusage" as it will soon be updated to include full process stat monitoring.
Extend the heartbeat sensor to report node and process stats in the heartbeat.
Store the process and node stats in their respective orte_xxx_t object.
This commit was SVN r24629.
Provide a new MCA param that allows the user to direct that we abort the job once a process exits with non-zero status. No recovery is allowed in such cases to avoid trying to restart a process that has already exited MPI.
This commit was SVN r24614.
1. removing the enum of mapper values
2. change the req_mapper and last_mapper fields to char* so they can hold the component name instead of a mapper flag
3. revise the selection logic in the mapper components to reflect the change. Components now look for their name in the req_mapper field, or to see if other criteria (e.g., npernode) are set that mandate their doing the mapping
Several MCA params resided in the rmaps base for historical reasons - they have been in the base since at least the original 1.2 release (and perhaps earlier). However, George correctly pointed out that they really should reside in their respective components. Accordingly, move them to the components, but register synonyms to the old names to avoid breaking backward compatibility.
These revisions retain the current functionality of allowing comm_spawn'd jobs to use different mappers than the original job, and for the errmgr to utilize the resilient mapper to recover processes regardless of how they were originally mapped.
Given the large number of possible combinations, I am sure that someone will find a corner-case combination of values and selection criteria that cause either no mapper to be selected, or one other than the intended to be used. No one can test all the ways people will use this system, so I expect debugging to continue for awhile.
The ability of comm_spawn'd jobs to exploit this functionality relies on changes to the orte_dpm component - this will be committed separately.
This commit was SVN r24520.
Cleanup the heartbeat handling so it is associated with the proc, not a node.
Cleanup handling of recovery options so that defaults do not override user values iff they are provided.

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()}}}.

* {{{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.

orte_local_chip_type and orte_local_chip_model in MPI processes it the
appropriate sysinfo module found the values on the machine.
This commit was SVN r23581.
Create an ability to store the contact info for multiple HNPs being used to route between different job families. Modify the dpm orte module to pass the resulting store during the connect_accept procedure so that all jobs involved in the resulting communicator know how to route OOB messages between them.
Add a test provided by Philippe that tests this ability.
This commit was SVN r23438.
The problem was tracked to use of the grpcomm.onesided_barrier to control daemon/mpirun termination. This relied on messaging -and- required that the program counter jump from the errmgr back to grpcomm. On rare occasions, this jump did not occur, causing mpirun to hang.
This patch looks more invasive than it is - most of the affected files simply had one or two lines removed. The essence of the change is:
* pulled the job_complete and quit routines out of orterun and orted_main and put them in a common place
* modified the errmgr to directly call the new routines when termination is detected
* removed the grpcomm.onesided_barrier and its associated RML tag
* add a new "num_routes" API to the routed framework that reports back the number of dependent routes. When route_lost is called, the daemon's list of "children" is checked and adjusted if that route went to a "leaf" in the routing tree
* use connection termination between daemons to track rollup of the daemon tree. Daemons and HNP now terminate once num_routes returns zero
Also picked up in this commit is the addition of a new bool flag to the app_context struct, and increasing the job_control field from 8 to 16 bits. Both trivial.
This commit was SVN r23429.
Since the MPIR symbols are now included in the ORTE library, remove duplicate declarations in OMPI and replace them with extern references to their ORTE instantiations.
This commit was SVN r23360.
Modify the debugger control flag to include "do not monitor" so orterun will not take debugger daemon termination into account when deciding that all jobs are done.
This commit was SVN r23282.
Add new mca params to test:
orte_debugger_test_daemon: Name of the executable to be used to simulate a debugger colaunch
orte_debugger_test_attach: Test debugger colaunch after debugger attachment
To test co-launch at job start, just set the orte_debugger_test_daemon param.
To test co-launch upon attach:
set orte_debugger_test_daemon
set orte_debugger_test_attach=1
set orte_enable_debug_cospawn_while_running=1
set orte_debugger_check_rate=<N> - defines the number of seconds to wait before "checking" for a debugger attaching
Added a "debugger" program to orte/test/mpi that just spins to simulate a debugger daemon.
This commit was SVN r23144.
1. orte_enable_recovery - default recovery policy, can be overridden on a per-job basis
2. orte_max_local_restarts - default max number of local restarts, can be overridden
3. orte_max_global_restarts - default max number of relocates, can be overridden
Implement the restart_proc API for the ODLS framework, reorganize the default fns a little to avoid copying code.
This commit was SVN r23057.
1. file activity - can monitor file size, access and modification times. If these fail to change over a specified number of sampling iterations (rate is an mca param), then the errmgr is notified.
2. memory usage - checks amount of memory used by a process. Limit and sampling rate can be set.
This support must be enabled by configuring --enable-sensors.
ompi_info and orte-info have been updated to include the new framework.
Also includes some initial steps toward restoring the recovery capability. Most notably, the ODLS API has been extended to include a "restart_proc" entry for restarting a local process, and organizes the various ERRMGR framework globals into a single struct as we do in the other ORTE frameworks. Fix an oversight in the ERRMGR framework where a pointer array was constructed, but not initialized.
Implementation continues.
This commit was SVN r23043.
* add hnp and orted modules to the errmgr framework. The HNP module contains much of the code that was in the errmgr base since that code could only be executed by the HNP anyway.
* update the odls to report process states directly into the active errmgr module, thus removing the need to send messages looped back into the odls cmd processor. Let the active errmgr module decide what to do at various states.
* remove the code to track application state progress from the plm_base_launch_support.c code. Update the plm modules to call the errmgr directly when a launch fails.
* update the plm_base_receive.c code to call the errmgr with state updates from remote daemons
* update the routed modules to reflect that process state is updated in the errmgr
* ensure that the orted's open the errmgr and select their appropriate module
* add new pretty-print utilities to print process and job state. Move the pretty-print of time info to a globally-accessible place
* define a global orte_comm function to send messages from orted's to the HNP so that others can overlay the standard RML methods, if desired.
* update the orterun help output to reflect that the "term w/o sync" error message can result from three, not two, scenarios
This commit was SVN r23023.
Many of the OPAL_ENABLE_FT should be OPAL_ENABLE_FT_CR, so fix those.
The OPAL Layer INC should call opal_output on restart so that it can refresh the string it prints to reflect the current pid/hostname which may have changed.
