I am no expert on this issue. However, having watched those attempting to
maintain the Windows port using the same approach you are advocating, I can
say that requiring APPLE-specific "if...include" logic almost certainly will
be an exercise in frustration, if not futility. Many of us actually deve
Hi,
Attached are two patches. First one implements new function
mca_pml_ob1_send_requst_copy_in_out(req, offset, len) that sends
given range of the request by copying data in/out internal buffers.
It also changes the behaviour of the pipeline protocol to send data from
an end of a user buffer. Th
Brian,
Below is the response I got from the fink developer
who was trying to package paraview and ran into this
problem with the undefined environ symbol in openmpi.
I have also emailed on darwin-dev to get a clarification
on this issue. However your argument against target
specific chances is
Ralph,
I don't know why such patches should be harder to
maintain in Windows than on Darwin. All you do is
the equivalent to...
cd /sw/lib/openmpi/lib
nm * | grep environ
and if you see environ undefined, identify which library
it is in and which object file it came from. I would also
note th
I think both patches should be put in immediately. I have done some
simple testing, and with 128 nodes of odin, with 1024 processes
running mpi hello, these decrease our running time from about 14.2
seconds to 10.9 seconds. This is a significant decrease, and as the
scale increases there sh
I'd be happy to commit the patch into the trunk. But after what
happened last time, I'm more than cautious. If the community think
the patch is worth having it, let me know and I'll push it in the
trunk asap.
Thanks,
george.

Well, I'll be the voice of caution again...
Tim: did you run all of the orte tests in the orte/test/system directory? If
so, and they all run correctly, then I have no issue with doing the commit.
If not, then I would ask that we not do the commit until that has been done.
In running those tests,
Well, after fixing many of the tests... It passes all the tests
except the spawn tests. However, the spawn tests are seriously broken
without this patch as well, and the ibm mpi spawn tests seem to work
fine.
As far as I'm concerned, this should assuage any fear of problems
with these cha

Interesting - they worked fine for me. Perhaps a difference in environment.

Hmmm...well, this operation
if ( NULL == strncmp(appctx->app, OPAL_PATH_SEP, 1 )) {
is not a legal one since OPAL_PATH_SEP is a character and not a
NULL-terminated string and thus generates the following warning:
totalview.c: In function 'orte_totalview_init_after_spawn':
totalview.c:412: war
My apologies - I reviewed the opal code and see that it wasn't what I
remembered. The objection here is that strncmp returns an int, not a
pointer, and hence the NULL is bothering the compiler.
I'll submit the fix
Thanks

After some work off-list with Tim, it appears that something has been broken
again on the OMPI trunk with respect to comm_spawn. It was working two weeks
ago, but...sigh.
Anyway, it doesn't appear to have any bearing either way on George's
patch(es), so whomever wants to commit them is welcome to
Commit r14791 apply this patch to the trunk. Let me know if you
encounter any kind of troubles.
Thanks,
george.
