| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | reference count > 1. Description: Added a new field 'app_count' to H5I_id_info_t struct, to track the reference count on an id due to the application. the old 'count' field tracks the total. Generally any id visible to the application gets placed in app_count. Added app_ref boolean parameter to H5I_inc_ref, H5I_dec_ref, H5I_register, H5I_clear_type, and a few other functions, to specify whether the operation(s) being performed on the id(s) are due to the application (TRUE) or not (FALSE). Test added for this case. Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)

* [svn-r14442] Modified metadata cache to adapt more quickly to the insertion of aJohn Mainzer2008-01-181-2/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | large entry, or to a large increases in the size of an existing entry. This required some additions to the cache configuration structure, and thus will require changes in the metadata cache documentation. The basic idea is to monitor the size of entries as they are loaded, inserted, or increased in size. If the size of the entry (or increase) exceeds some user selected fraction of the size of the cache, increase the size of the cache. Note that this fix was designed quickly -- while it deals with the use case that exposed the problem, we may have to revisit the issue later. Tested serial and parallel on Phoenix, and h5committest.
* [svn-r14065] Second try at checking in the "cork the cache" modification.John Mainzer2007-08-101-23/+10
| | | | | | | | First attempt contained slightly dated versions of the files listed below. Must also note that the mods were tested with h5committest, and two other linux builds.

Failed on osage with a configuration error that appears unrelated to my changes. Serial test (debug mode) passes on Phoenix (Linux x86 2.6 kernel), so I went ahead with the checkin.

* [svn-r12902] Checkin of Shared Object Header Message work.James Laird2006-11-131-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | This feature is still in progress; Shared Object Header Messages are not complete as a feature and are not thoroughly tested. There are still "TODO" comments in the code (comments with the word "JAMES" in them, so as not to be confused with other TODO comments). Hopefully this checkin will reduce the liklihood of conflicts as I finish implementing this feature. All current tests pass on juniper, copper (parallel), heping, kagiso, and mir.
* [svn-r12596] Refactored how external files are opened and closed.James Laird2006-08-181-0/+1
| | | | | | | | Object header locations (H5O_loc_t's) can now "hold open" a file and decrement its open object count when they close. This means that locations (H5O_loc_t's and H5G_loc_t's) should always be freed. Added more thorough tests to ensure that external files are closed.
* [svn-r12525] Description:Quincey Koziol2006-08-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Refactored free space manager to use metadata cache for serialized free space sections. This speeds up the fractal heap test considerably... Tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) Linux 2.4/32 (chicago) Linux 2.4/64 (mir) Mac OS X (amazon)
* [svn-r12462] Committed a variety of metadata cache related changes:John Mainzer2006-07-131-14/+883
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Added trace file support to the metadata cache. This allows capture of all metadata cache calls in trace files for purposes of optimization and debuging. 2) Added an expunge entry function. This allows an entry to be deleteded from the cache without writing it to disk even if it is dirty. 3) Added a function call to resize pinned entries. 4) Added code to deal with entries that are dirty on load. This is needed in support of a bug fix which can alter object headers on load to repair files. 5) Added progress reporting code to the "MDC API smoke check" test in cache_api.c. To enable the progress reporting, set report_progress to TRUE in mdc_api_call_smoke_check(). Tested with h5committest, and a parallel test on phoenix (dual athelon linux box).

* [svn-r12374] Purpose:John Mainzer2006-05-241-5/+155
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Check in potential fix to unreproduceable bug in t_cache observed on Cobalt 2) Check in code supporting added pinned entry features in the metadata cache. Description: 1) Elena encountered a bug in t_cache when running on Cobalt. On investigation I found a potential race condition in t_cache that could explain her observation. 2) Quincey requested additions to the metadata cache allowing renaming of pinned entryies, and marking of pinned or protected entries as dirty. Solution: 1) Modified t_cache.c to prevent the potential race condition. Elena was unable to reproduce the bug on Cobalt, so we don't know if my fix actually addressed the problem. 2) Added code supporting the requested functions. The changes were relatively trivial, but required substantial new test code. Platforms tested: h5committest, serial test on heping, parallel test on phoenix. Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add pinned entry capability to cache. Description: For frequently accessed cache entries, the protect/unprotect overhead is sometimes a bottleneck. Solution: Allow entries to be pinned in the cache. Pinned entries can't be evicted, but can be flushed or modified. Platforms tested: h5committested -- minus one small typo in test/cache.c whose fix was tested on copper and heping only. Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Repair synchronization bug in the metadata cache in PHDF5 Also repair numerous other bugs that surfaced in testing the bug fix. Description: While operations modifying metadata must be collective, we allow independant reads. This allows metadata caches on different processes to adjust to different sizes, and to place the entries on their dirty lists in different orders. Since only process 0 actually writes metadata to disk (all other processes thought they did, but the writes were discarded on the theory that they had to be collective), this made it possible for another process to modify metadata, flush it, and then read it back in in its original form (pre-modification) form. The possibilities for file corruption should be obvious. Solution: Make the policy that only process 0 can write to file explicit, and visible to the metadata caches. Thus only process 0 may flush dirty entries -- all other caches must retain dirty entries until they are informed by process 0 that the entries are clean. Synchronization is handled by counting the bytes of dirty cache entries created, and then synching up between the caches whenever the sum exceeds an (eventually user specified) limit. Dirty metadata creation is consistent across all processes because all operations modifying metadata must be collective. This change uncovered may bugs which are repaired in this checkin. It also required modification of H5HL and H5O to allocate file space on insertion rather than on flush from cache. Platforms tested: H5committest, heping(parallel & serial) Misc. update:
* [svn-r11245] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2005-08-131-86/+86
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Trim trailing whitespace, which is making 'diff'ing the two branches difficult. Solution: Ran this script in each directory: foreach f (*.[ch] *.cpp) sed 's/[[:blank:]]*$//' $f > sed.out && mv sed.out $f end Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) Too minor to require h5committest

| | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Refactor metadata cache to merge "dirtied" flag in with other flags for H5AC_unprotect and H5C_unprotect. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) h5committest
* [svn-r10978] Purpose:John Mainzer2005-06-241-1/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Interim checkin of code changes moving management of the is_dirty flag into the cache code. Description: Prior to this checkin, management of the is_dirty flag was handled above the level of the metadata cache. This can no longer be allowed, as it introduces a race condition in the proposed fix for a cache coherency bug in PHDF5. Solution: Move management fo the is_dirty flag to the cache code proper. Entries are now marked as dirty via a flag on the unprotect call. Platforms tested: h5committested Misc. update:
* [svn-r10715] Purpose:John Mainzer2005-05-021-6/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove C99 types from new metadata cache related API calls Description: Windows (and perhaps others) don't like int32_t and int64_t. While we have dealt with the issue internally, it is more of a problem in API calls. Solution: Convert int32_t to int and int64_t to long int in the H5AC_cache_config_t structure used by the new metadata cache related API calls. Added explicit type casts to convert between internal and external representations. Platforms tested: h5committested Misc. update:
* [svn-r10688] Purpose:John Mainzer2005-04-281-66/+452
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add API calls allowing user control of the metadata cache. Description: Prior to this update, the metadata cache was not configurable from outside the library. Solution: Add API calls allowing the user to configure the metadata cache either at file open time, or for any open file. Also added calls permitting the user to monitor cache size and hit rate. These latter facilities are needed for "manual" cache size control Platforms tested: h5committested Misc. update:
* [svn-r10506] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2005-03-291-1/+2

* [svn-r10184] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2005-03-111-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New feature Description: Add new "block tracker" data structure to library, for tracking blocks of bytes in a file. Block trackers will be used to keep track of the blocks belonging to the soon-to-be-implemented "segmented heap" which is designed to replace the current local & global heaps (starting with the local heap). Block trackers will also keep track of the free space in the segmented heap and someday could be used to track the free space in the entire HDF5 file. They are implemented as a small header of information to cache the state of the blocks (max & min sizes of blocks tracked, etc.) and the records of the blocks themselves are stored in a v2 B-tree.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Provide facilities in cache to allow us to avoid a potential cache consistency bug in the parallel case. 2) Clean up a off by one sanity checking bug. 3) Turn off execution of long running tests in debug mode. Description: 1) In the parallel case, all writes to metadata must be collective, but reads may not be. In pricipal, this allows us to different contents in different caches. This isn't a problem as long as the correct data is always on disk, but unless we can force certain writes immediately, that need not be the case. 2) & 3) should need no further explanation. Solution: 1) Add code allowing us to mark cache entries, and then force these entries to be flushed at a later time. Note that to actually avoid the bug, we will have to modify existing code to use these new features. 2) & 3) should need no further explanation. Platforms tested: heping (serial debug and production) committest (copper, sol, and heping). test failed on heping in the c++ portion of the build, but at Quincey's siggestion, I am proceeding with the checkin.

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".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the cache code (H5C) to support automatic cache resizing to adapt to the work load at run time. Description: Different applications require different sized caches to maintain an acceptable hit rate. This set of changes attempts to provide the ability to adjust to circumstances automatically. Solution: Added highly configurable code to allow the user to either set a fixed cache size, or allow the cache to grow and shrink according to conditions. If enabled, cache size increases are triggered when the hit rate drops below a user specified threshold in a user specified interval. Cache size reductions (if enabled) are triggered when either the hit rate exceeds some user specified threshold over a user specified interval, when the cache contains "enough" entries that haven't been accessed for a user specified interval, or some mix of the above. See the header comments on the H5C_auto_size_ctl_t structure in H5Cprivate.h for further details. At present, the cache resize configuration options are not accessible via the user API. Must add this. Platforms tested: h5committested, heping (serial), and copper (parallel) Misc. update:

* [svn-r8791] Purpose: Rewrote metadata cache (H5AC.c, etc.) to improve ↵John Mainzer2004-07-021-1164/+678
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | performance. Description: Replaced the old metadata cache with a cache with a modified LRU replacement policy. This should improve the hit rate. Solution: Since we want to flush cache entries in increasing address order, I used the threaded binary B-tree code to store the cache entries. There is a fair bit of overhead here, so we may want to consider other options. While the code is designed to allow the support of other replacement algorithms, at present, only a modified version of LRU is supported. The modified LRU algorithm requires that a user selectable portion of the cache entries be clean. The clean entries are evicted first when writes are not permitted. If the pool of clean entries is used up, the cache grows beyond its user specified maximum size. The cache can also exceed its maximum size if the combined size of the protected (or locked) entries exceeds the maximum size of the cache.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/gcc34 h5committest
* [svn-r8623] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-06-081-6/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization Description: Use default dataset transfer property list for internal metadata I/O operations when parallel I/O is disabled. This avoids multiple copies of the properties being made when the information is not needed. Platforms tested: Solaris 2.7 (arabica) FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel)

FP is still quite buggy, but I must go deal with other matters. Description: Fixed two major bugs: 1) H5FPserver.c was clobbering meta data in its care. 2) H5FPserver.c was allocating the same space multiple times, causing both data and meta data corruption. Also made minor fixes, added debugging code, and familiarized myself with the FP code. All development work with FP enabled was done on Eirene. On this platform, FP now passes its test reliably with up to 9 processes. At 10 processes it seg faults every time. I haven't looked into this issue. There are also several known locking bugs which have to be fixed. However, they are of sufficiently low probability that I didn't bother with them on this pass. FP has not been tested with deletions -- this should be done. Also, need to test FP chunked I/O. Solution: 1) Modified cache in H5FPserver.c to merge changes correctly. Found and fixed a bug in H5TB.c in passing. 2) Multiple space allocation was caused by a race condition with set eoa requests. Most of these eoa requests appeared to be superfluous, so I deleted them. Those issued during the superblock read seemed necessary, so I inserted a barrier at the end of the superblock read, to prevent races with allocations. Platforms tested: h5committested
