Hi,
For those of you who don't know me, my name is Yohann Burette, I work for Intel
and I contributed the OFI MTL.
AFAIK, the PSM MTL should have the priority over the OFI MTL.
Please excuse my ignorance but is there a way to express this priority in the
MTLs? Here is what is in ompi/mca/mtl/base/mtl_base_frame.c:
/*
* Function for selecting one component from all those that are
* available.
*
* For now, we take the first component that says it can run. Might
* need to reexamine this at a later time.
*/
int
ompi_mtl_base_select(bool enable_progress_threads,
bool enable_mpi_threads)
Am I missing anything?
Thanks in advance,
Yohann

+1 -- someone should file a bug.
I think Intel needs to decide how they want to handle this (e.g., whether the
PSM MTL or OFI MTL should be the default, and how the other can detect if it's
not the default and therefore it's safe to call psm_init... or something like
that).
