This commit updates the ugni btl to make use of multiple device contexts to improve the multi-threaded RMA performance. This commit contains the following: - Cleanup the endpoint structure by removing unnecessary field. The structure now also contains all the fields originally handled by the common/ugni endpoint. - Clean up the fragment allocation code to remove the need to initialize the my_list member of the fragment structure. This member is not initialized by the free list initializer function. - Remove the (now unused) common/ugni component. btl/ugni no longer need the component. common/ugni was originally split out of btl/ugni to support bcol/ugni. As that component exists there is no reason to keep this component. - Create wrappers for the ugni functionality required by btl/ugni. This was done to ease supporting multiple device contexts. The wrappers are thread safe and currently use a spin lock instead of a mutex. This produces better performance when using multiple threads spread over multiple cores. In the future this lock may be replaced by another serialization mechanism. The wrappers are located in a new file: btl_ugni_device.h. - Remove unnecessary device locking from serial parts of the ugni btl. This includes the first add-procs and module finalize. - Clean up fragment wait list code by moving enqueue into common function. - Expose the communication domain flags as an MCA variable. The defaults have been updated to reflect the recommended setting for knl and haswell. - Avoid allocating fragments for communication with already overloaded peers. - Allocate RDMA endpoints dyncamically. This is needed to support spreading RMA operations accross multiple contexts. - Add support for spreading RMA communication over multiple ugni device contexts. This should greatly improve the threading performance when communicating with multiple peers. By default the number of virtual devices depends on 1) whether opal_using_threads() is set, 2) how many local processes are in the job, and 3) how many bits are available in the pid. The last is used to ensure that each CDM is created with a unique id. Signed-off-by: Nathan Hjelm <hjelmn@lanl.gov> |
