No, I think it would be fine to only send the output after
btl_openib_if_in|exclude is applied. Perhaps we need an MCA param to

When is carto stuff applied? Is that what you're really asking
about?
There is no difference between carto and include/exclude.
You mean in terms of when they are applied?
I can specify
different openib_if_include values for different procs on the same
host.
I know you *can*, but it is certainly uncommon. The common case is
that it's the same for all procs on all hosts. I guess there's a few
cases:
1. homogeneous include/exclude, no carto: send all in node info; no
proc info
2. homogeneous include/exclude, carto is used: send all ports in node
info; send index in proc info for which node info port index it will use
3. heterogeneous include/exclude, no cart: need user to tell us that
this situation exists (e.g., use another MCA param), but then is same
as #2
4. heterogeneous include/exclude, cart is used, same as #3
Right?
