[mvapich-discuss] Announcing the release of MVAPICH 1.0.1

[Dhabaleswar Panda]

The MVAPICH team is pleased to announce the release of MVAPICH 1.0.1
version. This is a bug-fix release.

Specific changes (compared to MVAPICH 1.0.0) are as follows:

 - Changed "inline" functions to "static inline" to enable Sun Studio
   12 compiler.

 - Update configure to avoid silently falling back to gcc if chosen
   compiler doesn't function properly. Contributed by Pavel Shamis
   from Mellanox.

 - Fix race condition in on-demand startup where viadev.connections
   could be used before being allocated. Thanks to John Hawkes from
   Penguin Computing for pointing this out.

 - Additional cleanup of processes on MPI_Abort

 - Check for mpispawn in the same directory as mpirun_rsh

 - Fix for the BLACS segmentation fault problem. Problem occurs when
   application holds onto MPI communicators not freeing immediately.
   Thanks to Byoung-Do Kim from TACC for pointing this out.

 - Don't abort on IBV_EVENT_QP_LAST_WQE_REACHED, instead wait for
   ibv_poll_cq to show the real error. Thanks to Pavel Shamis
   from Mellanox for this patch.
