* [svn-r22780] Purpose:Jonathan Kim2012-09-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | HDFFV-8143 Provide a routine(s) for telling the user why the library broke collective data access Description: Added H5Pget_mpio_no_collective_cause() function that retrive reasons why the collective I/O was broken during Read/Write IO access. Reasons to break collective I/O: - SET_INDEPENDENT - DATATYPE_CONVERSION - DATA_TRANSFORMS - MPIPOSIX - NOT_SIMPLE_OR_SCALAR_DATASPACES (NULL Space) - POINT_SELECTIONS - NOT_CONTIGUOUS_OR_CHUNKED_DATASET (Compact or External-Storage) - FILTERS Merged from HDF5 trunk r22735, r22741 , 22743, 22744, 22763. Tested: jam-pp (linux32-LE), koala-pp (linux64-LE), wallaby-pp
* [svn-r22291] Description:Quincey Koziol2012-04-171-58/+58
| | | | | | | | | | Bring r22287 from trunk to 1.8 branch: Clean up more FUNC_ENTER/FUNC_LEAVE macros and move H5D & H5T code toward the final design (as exemplified by the H5EA & H5FA code). Tested on: Mac OSX/64 10.7.3 (amazon) w/debug & parallel
* [svn-r22156] Issue 7785 - Writing or reading many small chunks ran out of ↵Raymond Lu2012-03-271-0/+2
| | | | | | | | memory and caused seg fault. I added checks in two places to make sure the library returns error stack when it fails to allocate memory. I didn't add any test to the test suite since there is no good way to test it. But I tested and verified the error stack by hand. Tested on jam - this is a merge from the trunk.
* [svn-r21925] Description:Quincey Koziol2012-02-101-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring r21919-21924 from trunk to 1.8 branch: cleanup FUNC_ENTER macros, etc. Also removed Subversion mergeinfo tags from a few directories and files. These are artifacts from non-root merges using pre-1.6 Subversion clients. (This should fix the problem of unchanged directories looking "changed" during checkins.) Tested on: Mac OSX/64 10.7.3 (amazon) w/debug & production (daily tested on trunk)
* [svn-r21533] Description:Quincey Koziol2011-10-121-7/+18
| | | | | | | | | Bring r21442 and r21529 from trunk to 1.8 branch: Add new API routines for querying if collective raw data I/O was actually performed collectively. Tested: Linux/32 2.6 (jam) (h5committested on trunk)
* [svn-r19093] Description:Quincey Koziol2010-07-191-0/+98
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring r19092 from trunk to 1.8 branch: Bring "shape same" changes from LBL branch to trunk. These changes allow shapes that are the same, but projected into dataspaces with different ranks to be detected correctly, and also contains code to project a dataspace into greater/lesser number of dimensions, so the I/O can proceed in a faster way. These changes also contain several bug fixes and _lots_ of code cleanups to the MPI datatype creation code. Many other misc. code cleanup are included as well... Tested on: FreeBSD/32 6.3 (duty) in debug mode FreeBSD/64 6.3 (liberty) w/C++ & FORTRAN, in debug mode (h5committested on trunk)
* [svn-r18446] Purpose: Fix bug 1637Neil Fortner2010-03-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Description: Modified algorithm for extending a dataset with early allocation so it only deals with the new chunks. Formerly, it would loop over all chunks, checking to see if each existed in cache and on disk, causing major performance issues with large numbers of chunks. Tested: jam, linew, amani (h5committest)
* [svn-r18032] Description:Quincey Koziol2009-12-171-6/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring r18031 from trunk to 1.8 branch: Bring r18030 from merge_metadata_journaling branch to trunk: Bring "brush clearing" changes (whitespace & style issues, mostly) from metadata_journaling branch to the "merging" branch, to converge the trunk and the metadata_journaling branch. Also, some other minor cleanups along the way. Tested on: FreeBSD/32 6.3 (duty) in debug mode FreeBSD/64 6.3 (liberty) w/C++ & FORTRAN, in debug mode (h5committested on trunk)
* [svn-r17976] Bug fix for 1584. H5Tdetect_class said a VL string is a string ↵Raymond Lu2009-12-091-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | type. But when it's in a compound type, it says it's a VL type. We want to tell user a VL string is a string. But internally we treat it as a VL type. I added a flag as a parameter of H5T_detect_class. It tells whether the caller is the public function H5Tdetect_class. I also added a detection for VL string in the private function for the compound case (or array or nested VL type). Tested with h5committest.
* [svn-r17814] Description:Quincey Koziol2009-11-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | Correct 'src' to 'dst' in error message for H5D_read. (Bz#1683) Tested on: Eyeballed only - too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r17779] Description:Quincey Koziol2009-10-281-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Bring r17778 from trunk to 1.8 branch: Make check for NULL dataspace a bit safer. Tested on: FreeBSD/32 6.3 (duty) (too minor for h5committest)

* [svn-r16280] Description:Quincey Koziol2009-01-081-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring revision 16278 back from revise_chunks branch: Update layout information in DCPL to unify all information in one underlying property and switch to using H5O_layout_t for storing it, which simplifies things considerably. Also, fix many compiler warnings. Tested on: FreeBSD/32 6.3 (duty) in debug mode (Original patch tested on many machines)
* [svn-r15683] Purpose: fix bug 1298Neil Fortner2008-09-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Description: The optimized "subset" compound conversion function would improperly copy the "blank" space at the end of compound types. Modified H5T_conv_struct_init to detect when the subset type has extra space at the end, and calculate the size of the data that should be copied into the conversion buffer for each element. Changes to the functions that implement these conversions. Tested: kagiso, linew, smirom (h5committest)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring revision 14860 back to 1.8 branch, change log for rev 14860 is: Omnibus raw data I/O revisions, with wide-ranging changes and refactoring, in order to prepare for implementing "fast append" feature. These changes remove the majority of the code duplication for raw data I/O which has crept in over the last ten years and introduces a more object- oriented design for operating on different types of dataset storage. Description: Omnibus raw data I/O revisions, with wide-ranging changes and refactoring, in order to prepare for implementing "fast append" feature. These changes remove the majority of the code duplication for raw data I/O which has crept in over the last ten years and introduces a more object- oriented design for operating on different types of dataset storage. Chunked storage no longer has it's own I/O routines, it is now handled as either contiguous (if chunk is not pulled into the cache) or compact (if the chunk is cached in memory). No bug or feature changes, at least intentionally... :-) Tested on: Mac OS X/32 10.5.2 (amazon) w/production

* [svn-r14096] There're 3 changes in this checkin as below:Raymond Lu2007-08-201-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. In H5Dwrite and H5Dread, let the data buffer point to a fake address if the application passes in an empty buffer. This is mainly for MPIO programs that some processes may not have any data to write or read but still participate the I/O. This solution solves some MPI's problem like the ChaMPIon on tungsten which doesn't support empty buffer. 2. The ChaMPIon on tungsten doesn't support complex derived MPI data type correctly and collective I/O when some processes don't have any data to write or read correctly. Detect the compiler "cmpicc" in the system-specific config file and set the variables for these two cases to false. The PHDF5 library already has set up a way to switch collective chunked I/O to independent under these two cases. 3. A bug fix - During the work of the optimization for compound data I/O, the case for switching collective chunked I/O to independent I/O was leftout. Fixed it by adding I/O caching to it in H5D_multi_chunk_collective_io in H5Dmpio.c. Tested on tungsten, cobalt, and kagiso for parallel; on linew and smirom for serial.
* [svn-r14031] Bug fix. Chunk address wasn't passed into some I/O functions ↵Raymond Lu2007-07-311-2/+2

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | company. The I/O is optimized when the source and destination members are a subset of each other one way or another, and the order is the same, and no conversion is needed. For example: struct source { struct destination { TYPE1 A; --> TYPE1 A; TYPE2 B; --> TYPE2 B; TYPE3 C; --> TYPE3 C; }; TYPE4 D; TYPE5 E; }; or struct destination { struct source { TYPE1 A; --> TYPE1 A; TYPE2 B; --> TYPE2 B; TYPE3 C; --> TYPE3 C; }; TYPE4 D; TYPE5 E; }; The optimization is simply moving data from the source to the appropriate places in the buffer and bypass the reading of the background data and data conversion. Tested on smirom, liberty, sol, and copper.

Instead, this checkin makes multiple copies of fill value first, then does conversion on each element so that each of them has a copy of the VL data. A test is added, too.
