---- - Add support for the (as yet unreleased) Mellanox MXM transport. - Add support for dynamic service levels (SLs) in the openib BTL. - Fixed C++ bindings cosmetic/warnings issue with MPI::Comm::NULL_COPY_FN and MPI::Comm::NULL_DELETE_FN. Thanks to Júlio Hoffimann for identifying the issues. - Also allow the word "slots" in rankfiles (i.e., not just "slot"). - Add Mellanox ConnectX 3 device IDs to the openib BTL defaults. - Various FCA updates. - Fix 32 bit SIGBUS errors on Solaris SPARC platforms. - Add missing ARM assembly code files. - Update to allow more than 128 entries in an appfile. - Various VT updates and bug fixes. - Update description of btl_openib_cq_size to be more accurate. - Various assembly "clobber" fixes. - Fix a hang in carto selection in obscure situations. - Fix for NetBSD, which doesn't have <execinfo.h> - Support Solaris legacy munmap prototype changes. - Updated to Automake 1.11.1 per http://www.open-mpi.org/community/lists/devel/2011/07/9492.php. - Fix compilation of LSF support. - Update MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple.3 man page to reflect what it actually does. - Fix for possible corruption of the environment. Thanks to Peter Thompson for the suggestion. - Enable use of PSM on direct-launch SLURM jobs. - Update paffinity hwloc to v1.2, and to fix minor bugs affinity assignment bugs on PPC64/Linux platforms. - Let the openib BTL auto-detect its bandwidth. - Support new MPI-2.2 datatypes. - Updates to support more datatypes in MPI one-sided communication. - Fix recursive locking bug when MPI-IO was used with MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE. - Fix mpirun handling of prefix conflicts. - Ensure mpirun's --xterm options leaves sessions attached. - Fix types of the sendcounts and displs parameters to the F90 module for MPI_Scatterv (while still preserving the F90 ABI). Thanks to Stanislav Sazykin for identifying the issue. - Fix indexed datatype leaks. Thanks to Pascal Deveze for supplying the initial patch. - Fix debugger mapping when mpirun's -npernode option is used. - Fixed support for configure's --disable-dlopen option when used with "make distclean". - Fix segv associated with MPI_Comm_create with MPI_GROUP_EMPTY. - Improved LoadLeveler ORTE support. - Add new WindVerbs BTL plugin, supporting native OpenFabrics verbs on Windows (the "wv" BTL). - Add new btl_openib_gid_index MCA parameter to allow selecting which GID to use on an OpenFabrics device's GID table. - Add support for PCI relaxed ordering in the OpenFabrics BTL (when available). - Update rsh logic to allow correct SGE operation. - Ensure that the mca_paffinity_alone MCA parameter only appears once in the ompi_info output. Thanks to Gus Correa for identifying the issue. - Fix return status from MPI_Probe. - Remove --enable-progress-thread configure option; it doesn't work on the v1.5 branch. Rename --enable-mpi-threads to --enable-mpi-thread-multiple. Add new --enable-opal-multi-threads option. - Updates for Intel Fortran compiler version 12. - Remove bproc support. Farewell bproc! - If something goes wrong during during MPI_INIT, fix the error message to say that it's illegal to invoke MPI_INIT before MPI_INIT. - Fixed type of sendcounts and displs in the "use mpi" F90 module. ABI is preserved, but applications may well be broken.
