Nathan,
Here is a quick question regarding the topi framework.
- The mca_topo_base_output is opened unconditionally in topo_base_open.c:62
- with your patch, mca_topo_base_output is closed conditionally in
topo_base_close.c:46, but only in case mca_topo_base_components_opened_valid
and mca_topo_base_components_available_valid are NULL. However,
mca_topo_base_output is set to -1 in all cases right after.
Why is that so?
In fact I think the mca_topo_base_close is entirely wrong. It should close all
mca_topo_base_components_opened_valid component, then all
mca_topo_base_components_available_valid components and then close the
mca_topo_base_output and set it to -1.
Thanks,
george.
