This reverts commit open-mpi/ompi@f7257a8310.
Ensure that we properly cleanup the session directory tree. Prior code had issues with symlinks, especially if the file that the link points to was already removed as we traverse the tree. Also found that the dirent checks for directory type weren't fully portable, and so fall back to the stat-based approach which is known to be portable.
Fix singularity singletons by detecting we are in a container and properly setting the pmix selection to pick the isolated component. Remove a stale restriction blocking use of the sm btl
This commit rewrites both the mpool and rcache frameworks. Summary of
changes:
- Before this change a significant portion of the rcache
functionality lived in mpool components. This meant that it was
impossible to add a new memory pool to use with rdma networks
(ugni, openib, etc) without duplicating the functionality of an
existing mpool component. All the registration functionality has
been removed from the mpool and placed in the rcache framework.
- All registration cache mpools components (udreg, grdma, gpusm,
rgpusm) have been changed to rcache components. rcaches are
allocated and released in the same way mpool components were.
- It is now valid to pass NULL as the resources argument when
creating an rcache. At this time the gpusm and rgpusm components
support this. All other rcache components require non-NULL
resources.
- A new mpool component has been added: hugepage. This component
supports huge page allocations on linux.
- Memory pools are now allocated using "hints". Each mpool component
is queried with the hints and returns a priority. The current hints
supported are NULL (uses posix_memalign/malloc), page_size=x (huge
page mpool), and mpool=x.
- The sm mpool has been moved to common/sm. This reflects that the sm
mpool is specialized and not meant for any general
allocations. This mpool may be moved back into the mpool framework
if there is any objection.
- The opal_free_list_init arguments have been updated. The unused0
argument is not used to pass in the registration cache module. The
mpool registration flags are now rcache registration flags.
- All components have been updated to make use of the new framework
interfaces.
As this commit makes significant changes to both the mpool and rcache
frameworks both versions have been bumped to 3.0.0.

Cleanup the configury so we properly check for Singularity under the various typical use-cases
Bring the Singularity support online. We have to turn "off" the sm BTL as it segfaults from inside the container - root cause remains unclear. Also turned "off" the various OPAL shmem components in case they are involved and someone else tries to use them. Happily, the vader BTL works just fine!
Per open-mpi/ompi#1230, add a comment explaining why we write to a
temporary file and then rename(2) the file, just so that future code
maintainers don't wonder why we do this seemingly-useless step.
This commit does two things. It removes checks for C99 required
headers (stdlib.h, string.h, signal.h, etc). Additionally it removes
definitions for required C99 types (intptr_t, int64_t, int32_t, etc).

Use of the old ompi_free_list_t and ompi_free_list_item_t is
deprecated. These classes will be removed in a future commit.
This commit updates the entire code base to use opal_free_list_t and
opal_free_list_item_t.
Notes:
OMPI_FREE_LIST_*_MT -> opal_free_list_* (uses opal_using_threads ())

Please verify your components have been updated correctly. Keep in
mind that in terms of threading:
OPAL_FREE_LIST_GET -> opal_free_list_get_st
OPAL_FREE_LIST_RETURN -> opal_free_list_return_st
I used the opal_using_threads() variant anytime it appeared multiple
threads could be operating on the free list. If this is not the case
update to _st. If multiple threads are always in use change to _mt.
structure
This structure member was originally used to specify the remote segment
for an RDMA operation. Since the new btl interface no longer uses
desriptors for RDMA this member no longer has a purpose. In addition
to removing these members the local segment information has been
renamed to des_segments/des_segment_count.
The old BTL interface provided support for RDMA through the use of
the btl_prepare_src and btl_prepare_dst functions. These functions were
expected to prepare as much of the user buffer as possible for the RDMA
operation and return a descriptor. The descriptor contained segment
information on the prepared region. The btl user could then pass the
RDMA segment information to a remote peer. Once the peer received that
information it then packed it into a similar descriptor on the other
side that could then be passed into a single btl_put or btl_get
operation.
Changes:
- Removed the btl_prepare_dst function. This reflects the fact that
RDMA operations no longer depend on "prepared" descriptors.
- Removed the btl_seg_size member. There is no need to btl's to
subclass the mca_btl_base_segment_t class anymore.

Add more
We recognize that this means other users of OPAL will need to "wrap" the opal_process_name_t if they desire to abstract it in some fashion. This is regrettable, and we are looking at possible alternatives that might mitigate that requirement. Meantime, however, we have to put the needs of the OMPI community first, and are taking this step to restore hetero and SPARC support.
At some point we added a sanity check to the btl base to ensure that
the btl flags match the available functions (this prevents user's from
specifying get or put when no function exists). This check was
disabling get for the sm btl since at the time of the check there is
no btl_get function. The simplest fix is to set a dummy value to btl_get
that will be overwritten with the proper value on btl initialization.
Closes#239.
Restore the functionality to error out (and show a helpful message) if
knem support is requested by is either not compiled in or cannot be
activated.
Thanks to Gus Correa for bringing the matter to our attention.
Somehow, this MCA param was accidentally dropped after v1.6.5. Thanks
to Gus Correa for bringing this matter to our attention.
Also moving some MCA params down from level 9 to levels 4/5.
Properly setup the opal_process_info structure early in the initialization procedure. Define the local hostname right at the beginning of opal_init so all parts of opal can use it. Overlay that during orte_init as the user may choose to remove fqdn and strip prefixes during that time. Setup the job_session_dir and other such info immediately when it becomes available during orte_init.
WHAT: Open our low-level communication infrastructure by moving all necessary components (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool) down in OPAL
All the components required for inter-process communications are currently deeply integrated in the OMPI layer. Several groups/institutions have express interest in having a more generic communication infrastructure, without all the OMPI layer dependencies. This communication layer should be made available at a different software level, available to all layers in the Open MPI software stack. As an example, our ORTE layer could replace the current OOB and instead use the BTL directly, gaining access to more reactive network interfaces than TCP. Similarly, external software libraries could take advantage of our highly optimized AM (active message) communication layer for their own purpose. UTK with support from Sandia, developped a version of Open MPI where the entire communication infrastucture has been moved down to OPAL (btl/rcache/allocator/mpool). Most of the moved components have been updated to match the new schema, with few exceptions (mainly BTLs where I have no way of compiling/testing them). Thus, the completion of this RFC is tied to being able to completing this move for all BTLs. For this we need help from the rest of the Open MPI community, especially those supporting some of the BTLs. A non-exhaustive list of BTLs that qualify here is: mx, portals4, scif, udapl, ugni, usnic.
