OpenMPI has shipped with PVFS v2 support for a long time. Not sure
how you enable it, though. --with-filesystems=ufs+nfs+pvfs2 might
work for OpenMPI as it does for MPICH2.
All versions of ROMIO support Lustre and GPFS the same way: with the
"generic unix filesystem" (UFS) driver. Weikuan Yu at ORNL has been
working on a native "AD_LUSTRE" driver and some improvements to ROMIO
collective I/O. Likely to be in the next ROMIO release.
For GPFS, the only optimized MPI-IO implementation is IBM's MPI for
AIX. You're likely to see decent performance with the UFS driver,
though.
