* [svn-r12452] Purpose:James Laird2006-07-051-16/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Feature Description: Revised Link APIs. Solution: New link APIs use H5L* H5*create_expand do not create links to the objects created; this must be done manually with H5Llink. Added APIs to link an object given its ID (H5Llink), to copy links (H5Lcopy), and changed creation APIs (H5Lcreate_hard and H5Lcreate_soft) and query API (H5Lget_linkinfo instead of H5Gget_objinfo). All old APIs are still supported in H5Gdeprec.c . Platforms tested: sol, mir, copper Misc. update: Forgot to update MANIFEST and release docs. Will do after checkin.

* [svn-r11899] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2006-01-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix & new feature Description: Support variable-length datatypes in compact data storage and chunked data storage, along with attributes. Bug fix on the H5T_vlen_set_loc to allow for changing the file on a variable-length datatype on disk. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) Linux 2.4 Can't h5committest right now, due to missing cache files.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Feature Description: Added character encoding and attribute creation property lists. Solution: Attributes' character encoding is set via the ACPL. The default is ASCII, with UTF-8 being the other option currently. Platforms tested: heping, mir, sleipnir, copper
* [svn-r11838] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2005-12-261-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Retrieving an object's name could fail (in various ways) under certain circumstances (mostly having to do with mounted files). Solution: Re-write & simplify "get object name" code to fix error in a better way than adding yet another hack to the previous pile of hacks... :-) Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) h5committest

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New feature Description: Check in baseline for compact group revisions, which radically revises the source code for managing groups and object headers. WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! This initiates the "unstable" phase of the 1.7.x branch, leading up to the 1.8.0 release. Please test this code, but do _NOT_ keep files created with it - the format will change again before the release and you will not be able to read your old files!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! Solution: There's too many changes to really describe them all, but some of them include: - Stop abusing the H5G_entry_t structure and split it into two separate structures for non-symbol table node use within the library: H5O_loc_t for object locations in a file and H5G_name_t to store the path to an opened object. H5G_entry_t is now only used for storing symbol table entries on disk. - Retire H5G_namei() in favor of a more general mechanism for traversing group paths and issuing callbacks on objects located. This gets us out of the business of hacking H5G_namei() for new features, generally. - Revised H5O* routines to take a H5O_loc_t instead of H5G_entry_t - Lots more... Platforms tested: h5committested and maybe another dozen configurations.... :-)
* [svn-r11415] Purpose: Internal design change.Raymond Lu2005-09-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Description: H5T_register() replaces any existing data conversion path with a new path. Solution: Added a parameter to H5T_register() and H5T_path_find() to signal the library whether the new conversion path is from API function H5Tregister() or from private function like H5T_init_interface(). If it is from H5Tregister(), replace existing path. If it's from H5T_init_interface() and the library is trying to register default hard conversion functions, don't replace existing path because the path is registered by the library. For example, the library registered H5T_conv_int_float() and is trying to register H5T_conv_long_float(). The size of long is equal to int. There's no need to replace the path H5T_conv_int_float(). Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Merge back changes from "compact group" work that improve the infrastructure of the library and may impact others. In this round of merging, that includes: - Move datatype allocation into single internal routine, instead of duplicated code that was spread out in a dozen or so places. - Clean up guts of object header routines (H5O_*) to allow for some of the fancieroperations that need to be performed on groups, along with some general improvements. - Added a new error code - Some minor cleanups in other code....

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-) Description: Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections. However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch, but not the other. I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label "before_signed_unsigned_changes".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup & optimization Description: Improve ADF/CGNS benchmark by reducing the number of internal attribute copies made during creations, opens and writes. Added new H5O_iterate() routine for iterating through messages of a certain type in the object header (attributes are the only message currently that can have multiple instances in the object header). Cross-pollinated various minor code cleanups to reduce diffs between branches. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel Solaris 2.7 (arabica) Too minor to require h5committest

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup & optimizations Description: Clean up some of the code in attributes to avoid allocating memory and performing type conversions when the conversion is a noop. Avoid memory allocations of attribute data structures by switching to use library's free list memory allocator routines. Avoid memory allocations of object header continuation data structures by switching to use library's free list memory allocator routines.

* [svn-r9183] Purpose: New featureRaymond Lu2004-09-011-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Restore 6 old error API functions back to the library to be backward compatible with v1.6. They are H5Epush, H5Eprint, H5Ewalk, H5Eclear, H5Eset_auto, H5Eget_auto. These functions do not have error stack as parameter. Solution: Internally, these functions use default error stack. Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss. Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
* [svn-r8953] James Laird2004-07-271-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Bug fix Description: When a simple dataspace is created, its extent should be set before using it, or it will silently function as a NULL dataspace. Solution: Added checks on user-supplied dataspaces. Now dataspaces without extents set will throw errors; users must explicitly set a dataspace to be NULL. Platforms tested: sleipnir, windows
* [svn-r8731] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-06-231-7/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup & minor optimization Description: Re-work the way interface initialization routines are specified in the library to avoid the overhead of checking for them in routines where there is no interface initialization routine. This cleans up warnings with gcc 3.4, reduces the library binary size a bit (about 2-3%) and should speedup the library's execution slightly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup & optimization Description: Remove old structures that used a union to store information about the dataspace extent and just store the information directly in the dataspace extent itself. Remove ifdef'd references to permutation ordering in dataspaces. We'll definitely need more than this code if/when we implement this feature. Change allocation of dataspace information from calloc() to malloc(). Platforms tested: Solaris 2.7 (arabica) FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel Too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r8675] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-06-131-4/+0

* [svn-r8673] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-06-131-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization Description: Revised dataspace selections to use a more "object oriented" mechanism to set the function pointers for each selection and selection iterator. This reduces the amount and number of times that dataspace selection info has to be copied. Additionally, change hyperslab selection information to be dynamically allocated instead of an inline struct.

* [svn-r8590] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-05-271-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization & bug fix Description: When dimension information is being stored in the storage layout message on disk, it is stored as 32-bit quantities, possibly truncating the dimension information, if a dimension is greater than 32-bits in size. Solution: Fix the storage layout message problem by revising file format to not store dimension information, since it is already available in the dataspace. Also revise the storage layout data structures to be more compartmentalized for the information for contiguous, chunked and compact storage. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel Solaris 2.7 (arabica) h5committest

* [svn-r8376] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-04-171-71/+77
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Update null dataspace changes to try to write older version of dataspace information whenever possible. Refactor common code to only one location. Allow I/O operations to succeed on null dataspaces. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) h5committest
* [svn-r8330] Purpose: Last step of check-in for Null dataspaceRaymond Lu2004-04-081-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Description: Mainly are header message changes for dataspace. In last round of check-in, a new header message for dataspace to created, which is not a good way. Now, there will be no new message for dataspace, but just add the type of dataspace in the message while increment its version number. Backward compatibility is addressed. The attribute design is modified accordingly. Platforms tested: h5committest
* [svn-r8287] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-03-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix/code cleanup Description: Copy Robb's feature in SSlib that checks that the name of the function used in the FUNC_ENTER macro is actually the name of function.

* [svn-r7917] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-12-061-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Clean up compiler warnings, especially the 'FUNC' variable not used which comes out in production mode. Solution: Had to add a new FUNC_ENTER_NOAPI_NOINIT_NOFUNC macro for those non-API functions which don't need the 'FUNC' variable defined. (This will be _so_ much easier when C99 is standard on all our supposed platforms, since it has a __FUNC__ macro... ) Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) too minor for h5committest (although there were lots of files changed, the change was minor in each one)
* [svn-r7538] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-10-051-2/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fixes and code cleanup Description: Lots of changes here: - Fixed bug #691 - when shared datatypes are used in attributes they are incorrectly copied into the attribute instead of referring the the named datatype in the file. This required bumping the version of the attribute message. The new version of the attribute message is only written out when a shared datatype is used in the attribute. [Also, this format change made the size of the attribute smaller.] - Added information to attribute debugging routine so that shared datatypes are displayed correctly with the h5debug tool. - Refactored the H5O* routines to extract code that was common to several routines into subroutines to call. - Added 'link' method for H5O message sub-classes, which increments the link count on shared objects when a message is created which shares them. - Corrected [unreported] bug where the link count was not being decremented on the shared object when a object header message with a reference to that object was deleted from the file. - Reduced size of shared message from 49 bytes (which was incorrect anyway and should have been 48 bytes) to 10 bytes, which required bumping the version of "shared" messages. - Refactored some of the shared datatype routines to allow for easier queries of "committedness" internally to the library and also added routine to easily increment/decrement the reference count of a shared datatype.

* [svn-r6411] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-02-171-42/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Clean up miscellaneous warnings which have crept into the code. Fix "_POSIX_C_SOURCE not defined" warning on FreeBSD. Adjust gcc compiler flags to be more concise for production mode. Refactor the H5O code so that there is a stronger boundary between code in the H5O package and code in the library which just calls H5O routines.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix Description: Metadata cache in parallel I/O can cause hangs in applications which perform independent I/O on chunked datasets, because the metadata cache can attempt to flush out dirty metadata from only a single process, instead of collectively from all processes. Solution: Pass a dataset transfer property list down from every API function which could possibly trigger metadata I/O. Then, split the metadata cache into two sets of entries to allow dirty metadata to be set aside when a hash table collision occurs during independent I/O.

Description: Performance Improvements: - Cached file offset & length sizes in shared file struct, to avoid constantly looking them up in the FCPL. - Generic property improvements: - Added "revision" number to generic property classes to speed up comparisons. - Changed method of storing properties from using a hash-table to the TBBT routines in the library. - Share the propery names between classes and the lists derived from them. - Removed redundant 'def_value' buffer from each property. - Switching code to use a "copy on write" strategy for properties in each list, where the properties in each list are shared with the properties in the class, until a property's value is changed in a list. - Fixed error in layout code which was allocating too many buffers. - Redefined public macros of the form (H5open()/H5check, <variable>) internally to only be (<variable>), avoiding innumerable useless calls to H5open() and H5check_version(). - Reuse already zeroed buffers in H5F_contig_fill instead of constantly re-zeroing them. - Don't write fill values if writing entire dataset. - Use gettimeofday() system call instead of time() system when checking the modification time of a dataset. - Added reference counted string API and use it for tracking the names of objects opening in a file (for the ID->name code). - Removed redundant H5P_get() calls in B-tree routines. - Redefine H5T datatype macros internally to the library, to avoid calling H5check redundantly. - Keep dataspace information for dataset locally instead of reading from disk each time. Added new module to track open objects in a file, to allow this (which will be useful eventually for some FPH5 metadata caching issues). - Remove H5AC_find macro which was inlining metadata cache lookups, and call function instead. - Remove redundant memset() calls from H5G_namei() routine. - Remove redundant checking of object type when locating objects in metadata cache and rely on the address only. - Create default dataset object to use when default dataset creation property list is used to create datasets, bypassing querying for all the property list values. - Use default I/O vector size when performing raw data with the default dataset transfer property list, instead of querying for I/O vector size. - Remove H5P_DEFAULT internally to the library, replacing it with more specific default property list based on the type of property list needed. - Remove redundant memset() calls in object header message (H5O*) routines. - Remove redunant memset() calls in data I/O routines. - Split free-list allocation routines into malloc() and calloc()- like routines, instead of one combined routine. - Remove lots of indirection in H5O*() routines. - Simplify metadata cache entry comparison routine (used when flushing entire cache out). - Only enable metadata cache statistics when H5AC_DEBUG is turned on, instead of always tracking them. - Simplify address comparison macro (H5F_addr_eq). - Remove redundant metadata cache entry protections during dataset creation by protecting the object header once and making all the modifications necessary for the dataset creation before unprotecting it. - Reduce # of "number of element in extent" computations performed by computing and storing the value during dataspace creation. - Simplify checking for group location's file information, when file has not been involving in file-mounting operations. - Use binary encoding for modification time, instead of ASCII. - Hoist H5HL_peek calls (to get information in a local heap) out of loops in many group routine. - Use static variable for iterators of selections, instead of dynamically allocation them each time. - Lookup & insert new entries in one step, avoiding traversing group's B-tree twice. - Fixed memory leak in H5Gget_objname_idx() routine (tangential to performance improvements, but fixed along the way). - Use free-list for reference counted strings. - Don't bother copying object names into cached group entries, since they are re-created when an object is opened. The benchmark I used to measure these results created several thousand small (2K) datasets in a file and wrote out the data for them. This is Elena's "regular.c" benchmark. These changes resulted in approximately ~4.3x speedup of the development branch when compared to the previous code in the development branch and ~1.4x speedup compared to the release branch.
