MAM 2009/04/19. + - Regenerated Makefile.ins using Automake 1.10.2. MAM 2009/04/19. + - Added a Make target of check-all-install to test the correctness of + installing via the prefix= or $DESTDIR options. AKC - 2009/04/14 + + Library + ------- + - Embed the content of libhdf5.settings into the hdf5 executables + so that an "orphaned" executables can display (via the Unix + strings command, for example) the library settings used to build + the executables. This is a prototype implementation. Improvement will + be added in next release. AKC - 2009/04/20 + - Separated "factory" free list class from block free lists. These free + lists are dynamically created and manage blocks of a fixed size. + H5set_free_list_limits() will use the same settings specified for block + free lists for factory free lists. NAF - 2009/04/08 + - Added support for dense attributes to H5Ocopy. XCao/NAF - 2009/01/29 + - Added H5Pset_elink_cb and H5Pget_elink_cb functions to support a + user-defined callback function for external link traversal. + NAF - 2009/01/08 + - Added H5Pset_elink_acc_flags and H5Pget_elink_acc_flags functions to + allow the user to specify the file access flags used to open the target + file of an external link. NAF - 2009/01/08 + - Added H5Pset_chunk_cache() and H5Pget_chunk_cache() functions to allow + individual rdcc configuration for each dataset. Added + H5Dget_access_plist() function to retrieve a dataset access property + list from a dataset. NAF - 2008/11/12 + - Added H5Iis_valid() function to check if an id is valid without + producing an error message. NAF - 2008/11/5 + - Added code to maintain a min_clean_fraction in the metadata cache when + in serial mode. MAM - 2009/01/9 + + Parallel Library + ---------------- + - Modified parallel tests to run with arbitrary number of processes. The + modified tests are testphdf5 (parallel dataset access), t_chunk_alloc + (chunk allocation), and t_posix_compliant (posix compliance).

NAF - 2009/04/08 - 503 + - Fixed a bug where H5Lcopy and H5Lmove wouldn't create intermediate groups + when that property was set. NAF - 2009/04/07 - 1526 + - Fixed a bug that caused files with a user block to grow by the size of the + user block every time they were opened.

NAF - 2009/01/29 + - Changed H5Tset_order to properly reject H5T_ORDER_NONE for most datatypes. + NAF - 2009/01/27 - 1443 + - Fixed a bug where H5Tpack wouldn't remove trailing space from an otherwise + packed compound type. NAF - 2009/01/14 + - Fixed up some old v2 btree assertions that get run in debug mode that + were previously failing on compilation, and removed some of the + more heavily outdated and non-rewritable ones.

This is due to the way in which HDF5 manages the file + superblock. A fix is currently underway and should be included in the 1.8.4 + release of HDF5. MAM - 2009/04/28 + +* For gcc v4.3 and v4.4, with production mode, if -O3 is used, H5Tinit.c + would fail to compile. Actually bad H5Tinit.c is produced. If -O (same + as -O1) is used, H5Tinit.c compiled okay but test/dt_arith would fail. + When -O0 (no optimizatio) is used, H5Tinit.c compilete okay and all + tests passed. Therefore, -O0 is imposed for v4.3 and v4.4 of gcc. + AKC - 2009/04/20 + +* For Red Storm, a Cray XT3 system, the tools/h5ls/testh5ls.sh and + tools/h5copy/testh5copy.sh will fail some of its sub-tests.

This interferes with + test suites that do not expect seeing this message. See the section of "Red + Storm" in file INSTALL_parallel for a way to deal with this problem. + AKC - 2008/05/28 + +* We have discovered two problems when running collective IO parallel HDF5 + tests with chunking storage on the ChaMPIon MPI compiler on tungsten, a + Linux cluster at NCSA. + + Under some complex selection cases: + 1) MPI_Get_element returns the wrong value. + 2) MPI_Type_struct also generates the wrong derived datatype and corrupt + data may be generated. + These issues arise only when turning on collective IO with chunking storage + with some complex selections. We have not found these problems on other + MPI-IO compilers. If you encounter these problems, you may use independent + IO instead. + + To avoid this behavior, change the following line in your code + H5Pset_dxpl_mpio(xfer_plist, H5FD_MPIO_COLLECTIVE); + to + H5Pset_dxpl_mpio(xfer_plist, H5FD_MPIO_INDEPENDENT); + KY - 2007/08/24 + +* On Intel 64 Linux cluster (RH 4, Linux 2.6.9) with Intel 10.0 compilers, + use -mp -O1 compilation flags to build the libraries. A higher level of + optimization causes failures in several HDF5 library tests. + +* For LLNL, uP: both serial and parallel tests pass. + Zeus: Serial tests pass but parallel tests fail with a known problem in MPI. + ubgl: Serial tests pass but parallel tests fail. + +* On mpich 1.2.5 and 1.2.6, if more than two processes contribute no IO and + the application asks to do collective IO, we have found that when using 4 + processors, a simple collective write will sometimes be hung. This can be + verified with t_mpi test under testpar. + +* On IRIX6.5, when the C compiler version is greater than 7.4, complicated + MPI derived datatype code will work. However, the user should increase + the value of the MPI_TYPE_MAX environment variable to some appropriate value + to use collective irregular selection code. For example, the current + parallel HDF5 test needs to raise MPI_TYPE_MAX to 200,000 to pass the test. + +* A dataset created or rewritten with a v1.6.3 library or after cannot be read + with the v1.6.2 library or before when the Fletcher32 EDC filter is enabled. + There was a bug in the calculation of the Fletcher32 checksum in the + library before v1.6.3; the checksum value was not consistent between big- + endian and little-endian systems. This bug was fixed in Release 1.6.3. + However, after fixing the bug, the checksum value was no longer the same as + before on little-endian system. Library releases after 1.6.4 can still read + datasets created or rewritten with an HDF5 library of v1.6.2 or before. + SLU - 2005/6/30 + +* On IBM AIX systems, parallel HDF5 mode will fail some tests with error + messages like "INFO: 0031-XXX ...". This is from the command `poe'. + Set the environment variable MP_INFOLEVEL to 0 to minimize the messages + and run the tests again. + + The tests may fail with messages like "The socket name is already in use", + but HDF5 does not use sockets. This failure is due to problems with the + poe command trying to set up the debug socket. To resolve this problem, + check to see whether there are many old /tmp/s.pedb.* files staying around. + These are sockets used by the poe command and left behind due to failed + commands. First, ask your system administrator to clean them out. + Lastly, request IBM to provide a means to run poe without the debug socket. + +* The --enable-static-exec configure flag fails to compile for Solaris + platforms. This is due to the fact that not all of the system libraries on + Solaris are available in a static format. + + The --enable-static-exec configure flag also fails to correctly compile + on IBM SP2 platforms for serial mode. The parallel mode works fine with + this option. + + It is suggested that you do not use this option on these platforms + during configuration. + +* There is also a configure error on Altix machines that incorrectly reports + when a version of Szip without an encoder is being used. + +* Information about building with PGI and Intel compilers is available in + the INSTALL file sections 4.7 and 4.8. + + %%%%1.8.2%%%% diff --git a/release_docs/RELEASE.txt b/release_docs/RELEASE.txt index a6b4780..f5e691f 100644 --- a/release_docs/RELEASE.txt +++ b/release_docs/RELEASE.txt @@ -1,12 +1,12 @@ -HDF5 version 1.8.3 released on Mon May 4 09:21:00 CDT 2009 +HDF5 version 1.8.3-post0 currently under development ================================================================================ INTRODUCTION ============ -This document describes the differences between HDF5-1.8.2 and -HDF5 1.8.3, and contains information on the platforms tested and -known problems in HDF5-1.8.3. +This document describes the differences between HDF5-1.8.3 and +HDF5 1.8.3-*, and contains information on the platforms tested and +known problems in HDF5-1.8.3-*.
