PATCH v4 1/1 opensm: Reduce heap consumption by unicast routing tables (LFTs)

Heap memory consumption by the unicast and multicast routing tables can be reduced.

Using valgrind --tool=massif (for heap profiling), there are couple of places that consume most of the heap memory:
->38.75% (11,206,656B) 0x43267E: osm_switch_new (osm_switch.c:134)
->12.89% (3,728,256B) 0x40F8C9: osm_mcast_tbl_init (osm_mcast_tbl.c:96)

osm_switch_new (osm_switch.c:108):

       p_sw->lft = malloc(IB_LID_UCAST_END_HO + 1);
Quoted 1 line

From ib_types.h

#define IB_LID_UCAST_END_HO 0xBFFF

The LFT can be allocated after LID assignment, once the number of LIDs assigned is known.

So it looks like for cluster of 2-4K with an LMC of 0 about 40% (!!!) of the heap memory can be saved:

- 39% used by LFTs, each with 48K entries - SM can allocate 4K entries instead.

A similar subsequent change will do this for MFTs.

---
Changes since v3:
Fixed comparisons to lft_size to use max_lid_ho Modifications to alloc_lft
- Simpler calculation of lft_size in units of LFT block size
- Eliminated unneeded malloc case for LFT when no LFT

Changes since v2:
Fixed alloc_lft handling of an existing lft Moved alloc_lft into osm_switch_prepare_path_rebuild

Changes since v1:
Basic approach changed to not do in chunks but rather allocate LFT once LID assignment is completed

PATCH 1/1 opensm/osm_state_mgr.c: in cleanup_switch() check only relevant LFT part

In reply to a message not in the archive

In cleanup_switch() be sure that only relevant LFT entries were updated, don't care about outdated part of LFT.
