nmad core interface

This is the interface of the NewMad core. More...

Modules
	Core init & connect.
	Requests status and flags
	Tags for core
	Core events management
	Core tasks: internal asynchronous tasks.
	Core tasks are defined here only for the sake of inlining, but are private.
	Requests packing/unpacking
	Synchronization primitives using conditions
	nm_cond_* functions are used to manage synchronization with & without pioman.
	Front-end to deal with status in requests
	Front-end for atomic ops
	Use atomic instructions only in multi-threaded mode.
	Front-end for generic locking
	locking with pioman: always use all locks (even if the application is not threaded, pioman itself is threaded).
	Error management
	Check ABI config consistency

Detailed Description

This is the interface of the NewMad core.

All other include files in the core are internal and shouldn't be included outside of the core.

End-users are not supposed to use directly this core interface. They should use instead a higher level interface such as sendrecv interface (sendrecv), Pack interface (pack), or MadMPI: MPI Interface (MadMPI) for messaging, and Launcher interface (launcher) for init and connection establishment.

When developping in nmad, this is the main API exposed to high-level interfaces and is thus the central hub.
