      Fortran profiling interface fix · 6ce38c27
      Kenneth Raffenetti authored 
      

Previous re-organization of the library symbols resulted in a
situation where Fortran programs could no longer be profiled using
tools written in C. Functions in libmpifort directly called the
PMPI_* versions in libmpi.

Now we always call the MPI_* versions from libmpifort. In the case
where we are building a separate profiling library, we use a new
preprocessor flag to ensure we call PMPI_* from inside libpmpi.

Additional bug fix:
  - always define mpi_conversion_fn_null_, there is no pmpi version

Fixes #2209

      barrier in close whenever shared files supported · ef1cf141
      Paul Coffman authored and Rob Latham's avatar Rob Latham committed 
      

Currently in the MPI_File_close there is a barrier in place whenever the
ADIO_SHARED_FP feature is enabled AND the ADIO_UNLINK_AFTER_CLOSE
feature is disabled right before the code to close the shared file
pointer and potentially unlink the shared file itself.  PE testing on
GPFS revealed a situation using the non-collective
MPI_File_read_shared/MPI_File_write_shared
where based on this implementation all tasks needed to wait for all
other tasks to complete processing before unlinking the shared file
pointer or the open of the shared file pointer could fail.  This
situation is illustrated as follows with the simplest example of 2 tasks
that do this:
MPI_File_Open
MPI_File_set_view
MPI_File_Read_shared
MPI_File_close

So both tasks call MPI_File_Read_shared at the same time which first
does the ADIO_Get_shared_fp which does the file open with create mode on
the shared file pointer.   Only 1 task can actually create the file, so
there is a race to see who can get it done first.  If task 0 gets it
created then he is the winner and goes on to use it, read the file and
then MPI_File_close which then unlinks the shared file pointer first and
then closes the output file.  Meanwhile, task 1 lost the race to create
the file and is in error, the error handling in gpfs goes into effect
and task 1 now just tries to open the file that task 0 created.  The
problem is this error handling took longer that task 0 took to read and
close the output file, so at the time when task 0 does the close he is
the only process with a link since task 1 is still in the create file
error handlilng code so therefore gpfs goes ahead and deletes the shared
file pointer.  Then when the error handling code for task 1 does
complete and he tries to do the open, the file is no longer there, so
the open fails as does the subsequent read of the shared file pointer.
Currently GPFS has the ADIO_UNLINK_AFTER_CLOSE  feature enabled, so the
fix for this is to remove the additional condition of
ADIO_UNLINK_AFTER_CLOSE  being disabled for the barrier in the close to
be done.  Presumably this could be an issue for any parallel file system
so this change is being done in the common code.

See ticket #2214
