The first release candidate for the Open MPI v5.0.0 release is posted at: https://www.open-mpi.org/software/ompi/v5.0/
Major changes include:
v5.0.0rc1 -- September, 2021
--------------------
- ORTE, the underlying OMPI launcher has been removed, and replaced
with PRTE.
- Reworked how Open MPI integrates with 3rd party packages.
The decision was made to stop building 3rd-party packages
such as Libevent, HWLOC, PMIx, and PRRTE as MCA components
and instead 1) start relying on external libraries whenever
possible and 2) Open MPI builds the 3rd party libraries (if needed)
as independent libraries, rather than linked into libopen-pal.
- Update to use PMIx v4.1.1rc2
- Update to use PRRTE v2.0.1rc2
- Change the default component build behavior to prefer building
components as part of libmpi.so instead of individual DSOs.
- Remove pml/yalla, mxm, mtl/psm, and ikrit components.
- Remove all vestiges of the C/R support.
- Various ROMIO v3.4.1 updates.
- Use Pandoc to generate manpages
- 32 bit atomics are now only supported via C11 compliant compilers.
- Do not build Open SHMEM layer when there are no SPMLs available.
Currently, this means the Open SHMEM layer will only build if
the UCX library is found.
- Fix rank-by algorithms to properly rank by object and span.
- Updated the "-mca pml" option to only accept one pml, not a list.
- vprotocol/pessimist: Updated to support MPI_THREAD_MULLTIPLE.
- btl/tcp: Updated to use reachability and graph solving for global
interface matching. This has been shown to improve MPI_Init()
performance under btl/tcp.
- fs/ime: Fixed compilation errors due to missing header inclusion
Thanks to Sylvain Didelot <sdide...@ddn.com> for finding
and fixing this issue.
- Fixed bug where MPI_Init_thread can give wrong error messages by
delaying error reporting until all infrastructure is running.
- Atomics support removed: S390/s390x, Sparc v9, ARMv4 and ARMv5 CMA
support.
- autogen.pl now supports a "-j" option to run multi-threaded.
Users can also use environment variable "AUTOMAKE_JOBS".
- PMI support has been removed for Open MPI apps.
- Legacy btl/sm has been removed, and replaced with btl/vader, which
was renamed to "btl/sm".
- Update btl/sm to not use CMA in user namespaces.
- C++ bindings have been removed.
- The "--am" and "--amca" options have been deprecated.
- opal/mca/threads framework added. Currently supports
argobots, qthreads, and pthreads. See the --with-threads=x option
in configure.

- osc/pt2pt: Removed. Users can use osc/rdma + btl/tcp
for OSC support using TCP, or other providers.
- Open MPI now links -levent_core instead of -levent.

Thanks to @ahaichen for reporting the bug.
- MPI-4: Added support for 'initial error handler'.
- opal/thread/tsd: Added thread-specific-data (tsd) api.
- MPI-4: Added error handling for 'unbound' errors to MPI_COMM_SELF.
- Add missing MPI_Status conversion subroutines:
MPI_Status_c2f08(), MPI_Status_f082c(), MPI_Status_f082f(),
MPI_Status_f2f08() and the PMPI_* related subroutines.
