The Open MPI Team, representing a consortium of research, academic, and industry partners, is pleased to announce the release of Open MPI version 1.7.2.
This is a bug-fix release driven by two issues in the v1.7.0 release. - Add a distance-based mapping component to find the socket "closest" to the PCI bus. - Added Location Aware Mapping Algorithm (LAMA) mapping component. - Fix an error that caused epoll to automatically be disabled in libevent. - Upgrade hwloc to 1.5.2. - *Really* fixed XRC compile issue in Open Fabrics support. - Fixed parallel debugger ability to attach to MPI jobs. - Fix MXM connection establishment flow. - Fixed some minor memory leaks. - Fixed datatype corruption issue when combining datatypes of specific formats. - Fixes for MPI_STATUS handling in corner cases. - Major VampirTrace update to 5.14.4.2. (** also appeared: 1.6.5) - Fix to set flag==1 when MPI_IPROBE is called with MPI_PROC_NULL. (** also appeared: 1.6.5) - Set the Intel Phi device to be ignored by default by the openib BTL. (** also appeared: 1.6.5) - Decrease the internal memory storage used by intrinsic MPI datatypes for Fortran types. Thanks to Takahiro Kawashima for the initial patch. (** also appeared: 1.6.5) - Fix total registered memory calculation for Mellanox ConnectIB and OFED 2.0. (** also appeared: 1.6.5) - Fix possible data corruption in the MXM MTL component.
