Ralph Castain c56acf60ca Although we never really thought about it, we made an unconscious assumption in the mapper system - we assumed that the daemons would be placed on nodes in the order that the nodes appear in the allocation. In other words, we assumed that the launch environment would map processes in node order.
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.

configure.m4 This is actually a much smaller commit than it appears at first glance - it just touches a lot of files. The --without-rte-support configuration option has never really been implemented completely. The option caused various objects not to be defined and conditionally compiled some base functions, but did nothing to prevent build of the component libraries. Unfortunately, since many of those components use objects covered by the option, it caused builds to break if those components were allowed to build. 2011-11-22 21:24:35 +00:00
help-plm-alps.txt Merge the ORTE devel branch into the main trunk. Details of what this means will be circulated separately. 2008-02-28 01:57:57 +00:00
Makefile.am WARNING: Work on the temp branch being merged here encountered problems with bugs in subversion. Considerable effort has gone into validating the branch. However, not all conditions can be checked, so users are cautioned that it may be advisable to not update from the trunk for a few days to allow MTT to identify platform-specific issues. 2010-09-17 23:04:06 +00:00
