Configuration:
-------------
- - Updated HDF5 API tests CMake code to support VOL connectors
-
- * Implemented support for fetching, building and testing HDF5
- VOL connectors during the library build process and documented
- the feature under doc/cmake-vols-fetchcontent.md
-
- * Implemented the HDF5_TEST_API_INSTALL option that enables
- installation of the HDF5 API tests on the system
+ -
Library:
--------
- - Change the error handling for a not found path in the find plugin process.
-
- While attempting to load a plugin the HDF5 library will fail if one of the
- directories in the plugin paths does not exist, even if there are more paths
- to check. Instead of exiting the function with an error, just logged the error
- and continue processing the list of paths to check.

===================================
Library
-------
- - Fixed CVE-2018-13867
-
- A corrupt file containing an invalid local heap datablock address
- could trigger an assert failure when the metadata cache attempted
- to load the datablock from storage.
-
- The local heap now verifies that the datablock address is valid
- when the local heap header information is parsed.
-
- - Fixed CVE-2018-11202
-
- A malformed file could result in chunk index memory leaks. Under most
- conditions (i.e., when the --enable-using-memchecker option is NOT
- used), this would result in a small memory leak and and infinite loop
- and abort when shutting down the library. The infinite loop would be
- due to the "free list" package not being able to clear its resources
- so the library couldn't shut down. When the "using a memory checker"
- option is used, the free lists are disabled so there is just a memory
- leak with no abort on library shutdown.
-
- The chunk index resources are now correctly cleaned up when reading
- misparsed files and valgrind confirms no memory leaks.
-
- - Fixed an issue where an assert statement was converted to an
- incorrect error check statement
-
- An assert statement in the library dealing with undefined dataset data
- fill values was converted to an improper error check that would always
- trigger when a dataset's fill value was set to NULL (undefined). This
- has now been fixed.
-
- - Fixed an assertion failure when attempting to use the Subfiling IOC
- VFD directly
-
- The Subfiling feature makes use of two Virtual File Drivers, the
- Subfiling VFD and the IOC (I/O Concentrator) VFD. The two VFDs are
- intended to be stacked together such that the Subfiling VFD sits
- "on top" of the IOC VFD and routes I/O requests through it; using the
- IOC VFD alone is currently unsupported. The IOC VFD has been fixed so
- that an error message is displayed in this situation rather than causing
- an assertion failure.
-
- - Fixed a potential bug when copying empty enum datatypes
-
- Copying an empty enum datatype (including implicitly, as when an enum
- is a part of a compound datatype) would fail in an assert in debug
- mode and could fail in release mode depending on how the platform
- handles undefined behavior regarding size 0 memory allocations and
- using memcpy with a NULL src pointer.
-
- The library is now more careful about using memory operations when
- copying empty enum datatypes and will not error or raise an assert.
-
- - Added an AAPL check to H5Acreate
-
- A check was added to H5Acreate to ensure that a failure is correctly
- returned when an invalid Attribute Access Property List is passed
- in to the function. The HDF5 API tests were failing for certain
- build types due to this condition not being checked previously.
+ -
Java Library
------------
- - Fixed switch case 'L' block missing a break statement.
-
- The HDF5Array.arrayify method is missing a break statement in the case 'L': section
- which causes it to fall through and throw an HDF5JavaException when attempting to
- read an Array[Array[Long]].
-
- The error was fixed by inserting a break statement at the end of the case 'L': sections.
-
- Fixes GitHub issue #3056
+ -
Configuration
-------------
- - Fixed a configuration issue that prevented building of the Subfiling VFD on macOS
-
- Checks were added to the CMake and Autotools code to verify that CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE,
- PTHREAD_MUTEX_ADAPTIVE_NP and pthread_condattr_setclock() are available before attempting
- to use them in Subfiling VFD-related utility code. Without these checks, attempting
- to build the Subfiling VFD on macOS would fail.
+ -
Tools
-----
- - Fixed an issue in h5repack for variable-length typed datasets
-
- When repacking datasets into a new file, h5repack tries to determines whether
- it can use H5Ocopy to copy each dataset into the new file, or if it needs to
- manually re-create the dataset, then read data from the old dataset and write
- it to the new dataset. H5repack was previously using H5Ocopy for datasets with
- variable-length datatypes, but this can be problematic if the global heap
- addresses involved do not match exactly between the old and new files. These
- addresses could change for a variety of reasons, such as the command-line options
- provided to h5repack, how h5repack allocate space in the repacked file, etc.
- Since H5Ocopy does not currently perform any translation when these addresses
- change, datasets that were repacked with H5Ocopy could become unreadable in the
- new file. H5repack has been fixed to repack variable-length typed datasets without
- using H5Ocopy to ensure that the new datasets always have the correct global heap
- addresses.

Testing
-------
- - Fixed a testing failure in testphdf5 on Cray machines
-
- On some Cray machines, what appears to be a bug in Cray MPICH was causing
- calls to H5Fis_accessible to create a 0-byte file with strange Unix
- permissions. This was causing an H5Fdelete file deletion test in the
- testphdf5 program to fail due to a just-deleted HDF5 file appearing to
- still be accessible on the file system. The issue in Cray MPICH has been
- worked around for the time being by resetting the MPI_Info object on the
- File Access Property List used to MPI_INFO_NULL before passing it to the
- H5Fis_accessible call.
-
- - A bug was fixed in the HDF5 API test random datatype generation code
-
- A bug in the random datatype generation code could cause test failures
- when trying to generate an enumeration datatype that has duplicated
- name/value pairs in it. This has now been fixed.
-
- - A bug was fixed in the HDF5 API test VOL connector registration checking code
-
- The HDF5 API test code checks to see if the VOL connector specified by the
- HDF5_VOL_CONNECTOR environment variable (if any) is registered with the library
- before attempting to run tests with it so that testing can be skipped and an
- error can be returned when a VOL connector fails to register successfully.
- Previously, this code didn't account for VOL connectors that specify extra
- configuration information in the HDF5_VOL_CONNECTOR environment variable and
- would incorrectly report that the specified VOL connector isn't registered
- due to including the configuration information as part of the VOL connector
- name being checked for registration status. This has now been fixed.
