With respect to the CUDA-aware support, Ralph is correct.  The ability to send 
and receive GPU buffers is in the Open MPI 1.7 series.  And incremental 
improvements will be added to the Open MPI 1.7 series.  CUDA 5.0 is supported.

There was discussion of this on a prior email thread on the OMPI devel mailing 
list:

thanks,
Do you guys have any plan to support Intel Phi in the future? That is, running 
MPI code on the Phi cards or across the multicore and Phi, as Intel MPI does?
thanks...

Rolf will have to answer the question on level of support. The CUDA code is not 
in the 1.6 series as it was developed after that series went "stable". It is in 
the 1.7 series, although the level of support will likely be incrementally 
increasing as that "feature" series continues to evolve.
