OMPI and a language agnostic part in OPAL. The convertor is completely moved into OPAL. This offers several benefits as described in RFC http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2009/07/6387.php namely: - Fewer basic types (int* and float* types, boolean and wchar - Fixing naming scheme to ompi-nomenclature. - Usability outside of the ompi-layer. - Due to the fixed nature of simple opal types, their information is completely known at compile time and therefore constified - With fewer datatypes (22), the actual sizes of bit-field types may be reduced from 64 to 32 bits, allowing reorganizing the opal_datatype structure, eliminating holes and keeping data required in convertor (upon send/recv) in one cacheline... This has implications to the convertor-datastructure and other parts of the code. - Several performance tests have been run, the netpipe latency does not change with this patch on Linux/x86-64 on the smoky cluster. - Extensive tests have been done to verify correctness (no new regressions) using: 1. mpi_test_suite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and ompi-ddt: a. running both trunk and ompi-ddt resulted in no differences (except for MPI_SHORT_INT and MPI_TYPE_MIX_LB_UB do now run correctly). b. with --enable-memchecker and running under valgrind (one buglet when run with static found in test-suite, commited) 2. ibm testsuite on linux/x86-64 using clean ompi-trunk and ompi-ddt: all passed (except for the dynamic/ tests failed!! as trunk/MTT) 3. compilation and usage of HDF5 tests on Jaguar using PGI and PathScale compilers. 4. compilation and usage on Scicortex. - Please note, that for the heterogeneous case, (-m32 compiled binaries/ompi), neither ompi-trunk, nor ompi-ddt branch would successfully launch.
