What: Update ob1 to do the following:
- fallback on send after rdma_put_retries_limit failures of prepare_dst
- fallback on put (single non-pipelined) if the btl returns
OMPI_ERR_NOT_AVAILABLE on a get transaction.
When: Timeout in about one week (Mar 22)
Why: Two reasons:
- Some btls (ugni) need to switch to put for certain transactions. It
makes sense to make this switch at the pml level.
- If prepare_dst repeatedly fails for a get transaction we currently
deadlock. We can avoid the deadlock (in most cases) by switching to send for
the transaction.
Please take a look at the attached patch. Feedback and constructive criticism
is needed!
