- - Fixed a bug caused by bad tag value when condensing object header
- messages
-
- There was an assertion failure when moving meessages from running a
- user test program with library release hdf5.1.10.4. It was because
- the tag value (object header's address) was not set up when entering
- the library routine H5O__chunk_update_idx(), which will eventually
- verifies the metadata tag value when protecting the object header.
-
- The problem was fixed by replacing FUNC_ENTER_PACKAGE in H5O__chunk_update_idx()
- with FUNC_ENTER_PACKAGE_TAG(oh->cache_info.addr) to set up the metadata tag.
-
- (VC - 2019/08/23, HDFFV-10873)
-
- - Fixed the test failure from test_metadata_read_retry_info() in
- test/swmr.c
-
- The test failure is due to the incorrect number of bins returned for
- retry info (info.nbins). The # of bins expected for 101 read attempts
- is 3 instead of 2. The routine H5F_set_retries() in src/H5Fint.c
- calculates the # of bins by first obtaining the log10 value for
- (read attempts - 1). For PGI/19, the log10 value for 100 read attempts
- is 1.9999999999999998 instead of 2.00000. When casting the log10 value
- to unsigned later on, the decimal part is chopped off causing the test
- failure.
-
- This was fixed by obtaining the rounded integer value (HDceil) for the
- log10 value of read attempts first before casting the result to unsigned.

-
- - Fixed an issue where creating a file with non-default file space info
- together with library high bound setting to H5F_LIBVER_V18.
-
- When setting non-default file space info in fcpl via
- H5Pset_file_space_strategy() and then creating a file with
- both high and low library bounds set to
- H5F_LIBVER_V18 in fapl, the library succeeds in creating the file.
- File creation should fail because the feature of setting non-default
- file space info does not exist in library release 1.8 or earlier.
-
- This was fixed by setting and checking the proper version in the
- file space info message based on the library low and high bounds
- when creating and opening the HDF5 file.

-
- - Fixed an issue where copying a version 1.8 dataset between files using
- H5Ocopy fails due to an incompatible fill version
-
- When using the HDF5 1.10.x H5Ocopy() API call to copy a version 1.8
- dataset to a file created with both high and low library bounds set to
- H5F_LIBVER_V18, the H5Ocopy() call will fail with the error stack indicating
- that the fill value version is out of bounds.
-
- This was fixed by changing the fill value message version to H5O_FILL_VERSION_3
- (from H5O_FILL_VERSION_2) for H5F_LIBVER_V18.

- - Fixed a bug that would cause an error or cause fill values to be

-
- - Fixed memory leak in scale offset filter
-
- In a special case where the MinBits is the same as the number of bits in
- the datatype's precision, the filter's data buffer was not freed, causing
- the memory usage to grow. In general the buffer was freed correctly. The
- Minbits are the minimal number of bits to store the data values. Please
- see the reference manual for H5Pset_scaleoffset for the detail.

-
- - fcntl(2)-based file locking incorrectly passed the lock argument struct
- instead of a pointer to the struct, causing errors on systems where
- flock(2) is not available.
-
- File locking is used when files are opened to enforce SWMR semantics. A
- lock operation takes place on all file opens unless the
- HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING environment variable is set to the string "FALSE".
- flock(2) is preferentially used, with fcntl(2) locks as a backup if
- flock(2) is unavailable on a system (if neither is available, the lock
- operation fails). On these systems, the file lock will often fail, which
- causes HDF5 to not open the file and report an error.
-
- This bug only affects POSIX systems. Win32 builds on Windows use a no-op
- locking call which always succeeds. Systems which exhibit this bug will
- have H5_HAVE_FCNTL defined but not H5_HAVE_FLOCK in the configure output.
-
- This bug affects HDF5 1.10.0 through 1.10.5.
-
- fcntl(2)-based file locking now correctly passes the struct pointer.

-
- - Inappropriate linking with deprecated MPI C++ libraries
-
- HDF5 does not define *_SKIP_MPICXX in the public headers, so applications
- can inadvertently wind up linking to the deprecated MPI C++ wrappers.
-
- MPICH_SKIP_MPICXX and OMPI_SKIP_MPICXX have both been defined in H5public.h
- so this should no longer be an issue. HDF5 makes no use of the deprecated
- MPI C++ wrappers.
