Every modern compiler supports either inline assembly or builtin atomic
operations. Because of this it is time to delete all the code associated
with pre-built atomics.
This commit also clean out the DEC and XLC asm checks. Neither check
does anything and the XLC compiler supports GCC ASM.

This removes a copy-and-paste error where we were setting the

We accepted a change that enabled CMA on s390 and s390x. This change
had the side-effect that we were no longer using the builtin atomics
for these systems. This is a problem since we do not have ASM for
s390 and s390x. This commit restores the atomics.

Look for amd64 in addition to x86_64 as the platform
type for x86_64 assembly. The FreeBSD-packaged
Autoconf package has a patch to return
amd64-unknown-freebsd11.0 instead of the
x86_64-unknown-freebsd11.0 that a stock Autoconf
package would return. Since we want to run Jenkins
builds on FreeBSD, working around the FreeBSD patch
is probably the easiest thing.

in this context, AMD64 really means amd64 or em64t, so let's
rename this into X86_64 in order to avoid any confusion

Compiler implementations are free to include support for atomics that
use locks. Unfortunately lock-free and lock atomics do not mix. Older
versions of llvm on OS X use locks to provide
__atomic_compare_exchange on 128-bit values but are lock-free on
64-bit values. This screws up our lifo implementation which mixes
64-bit and 128-bit atomics on the same values to improve
performance. This commit adds a configure-time check if 128-bit
atomics are lock free. If they are not then the 128-bit __atomic CAS
is disabled and we check for the __sync version as a fallback.

* atomic: add support for __atomic builtins
This commit adds support for the gcc __atomic builtins. The __sync
builtins are deprecated and have been replaced by these atomics. In
addition, the new atomics support atomic exchange which was not
supported by __sync.

* atomic: add support for transactional memory
This commit adds support for using transactional memory when using
opal atomic locks. This feature is enabled if the __HLE__ feature is
available and the gcc builtin atomics are in use.

This commit updates the check for __sync builtin atomics to see if the
compiler supports both __sync_bool_compare_and_swap and
__sync_add_and_fetch. If either of these functions are not available
then we can't use the __sync builtins.

This commit removes alpha asm support. No current processor
manufacturer makes chips compatible with DEC alpha and no
participating organization has alpha processors. This makes it
difficult to support alpha via assembly.
This doesn't mean Open MPI will no longer build/work on alpha
processors. It should continue to work with gcc's builtin sync
atomics.

Use of this configuration option can cause crashing, hanging, and
(worse) incorrect results when btl/sm, btl/scif, or btl/vader are
in use. We discussed this at the January 2015 developers meeting
and it was decided to remove the option entirely. This commit does
just that. All usage of OPAL_WANT_SMP_LOCKS has been removed.
per several reports on the devel ML, the opal_lifo test hangs
with intel icc 14.0.0.080 (aka 2013sp1) and intel icc 14.0.1.106 (aka 2013sp1u1).
/* older and more recents compilers work fine
* buggy compilers work also fine but only with -O0 */
Before this commit we checked if the compiler supported compare-and-exchange
on 128-bit values. This turned out to be insufficient. This commit strengthens
the check to see if the processor supports the instruction (or built-in). This
check will not work when cross-compiling (will always disable the 128-bit
atomic) so overrides have been added for this case.
Some versions of gcc require this flag to be set before the __sync
builtin atomic compare and swap will support 128-bit values. If the
flag is required this check adds the flag to the CFLAGS.
A 128-bit compare-and-swap will enable a better atomic lifo implementation
that uses the pointer + counter method to avoid ABA issues. This commit
adds configury to check for the instruction (cmpxchg16b) and adds an
implementation that uses the __int128 type available in C99.
top_ompi_srcdir -> OMPI_TOP_SRCDIR
top_ompi_builddir -> OMPI_TOP_BUILDDIR
We also split the srcdir/builddir flags according to their local tree (e.g., OPAL_TOP_SRCDIR), and tied them all together in configure.ac. Renamed ompi_ignore and ompi_unignore to be opal_<foo> as these are agnostic markers.
Only thing left is ompilibdir being treated similar to what we dif for srcdir/builddir. Coming soon.
