* [svn-r8791] Purpose: Rewrote metadata cache (H5AC.c, etc.) to improve ↵John Mainzer2004-07-021-6/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: eirene (serial, parallel, fp), h5committested Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: HDF5 now supports SZIP with no encoder. Description: SZIP can be configured to have both encoder and decoder or just to have the decoder. HDF5 can now query the configuration of any filter, and will throw errors if users try to write using a filter with encoding disabled. Solution: Added H5Zget_filter_info function, changed API for H5Pget_filter and H5P_get_filter_by_id. See SZIP RFC. Platforms tested: Copper (fortran, C++, parallel), Sleipnir (C++), Arabica (fortran, C++), Verbena (fortran, C++) Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Buffer for decoding superblock's driver information was too small when using some VFDs (like the multi-file VFD). Also made FPH5 code more portable and obvious when it's broadcasting the superblock from the captain process to the other clients. Solution: Allocate the buffer for the driver information dynamicly Platforms tested: Copper No h5committest because it's already working on other platforms.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update Description: A lot of modifications for the FPHDF5 stuff: H5AC.c H5ACprivate.h - Removed AC_find (it's replaced with AC_protect and AC_unprotect). Added flushing if it's an FPHDF5 driver and we're doing an AC_set or AC_unprotect with the dirty flag set. H5B.c - Split up the B_flush function into different functions since the one function was doing serialization which is better left as a separate entity. H5D.c - Removed some FPHDF5 code that was incorrect H5F.c - Split up the F_flush function so that it no longer allocates file space. Created new functions (F_init_superblock, F_read_superblock, and F_write_superblock) for greater modularity and so that the FPHDF5 non-captain processes can read the superblock after the captain process writes it. H5FD.c - Error message correction. H5FDfphdf5.c - Removed MPI barrier call that wasn't needed. H5FPclient.c H5FPserver.c - Modified so that if a process requests data that isn't exactly aligned, we can return it if we have the block that contains the requested address. H5G.c H5Gent.c H5Gnode.c H5HL.c H5HLpkg.h H5HLprivate.h H5Oefl.c - Removed the H5HL_peek function since it was doing a (now unsafe) holding of the information in the cache. Replaced with protect and unprotect calls. H5TB.c - Error fix. The TB_dless function wasn't working properly. H5Gstab.c - Format change. H5err.txt H5Edefin.h H5Einit.h H5Epubgen.h H5Eterm.h - Added new error code. Platforms tested: Modi4 (paralle, Fortran) Sol (Fortran) Linux (C++, Fortran) Copper (Parallel, Fortran) Misc. update:

* [svn-r7355] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-08-131-0/+594
Code cleanup, etc. Description: Previously (in versions prior to 1.7), there were two locations to modify when an error was added to the library. Now, with the new error API, there were four. Solution: Created a single text file (src/H5err.txt) and a perl script (bin/make_err) which uses the text file to automatically create header files that are included in appropriate places in the library. This means that there is only one file (src/H5err.txt) which needs to be modified when a new error code is added to the library. The automatically generated headers depend on this file and the makefiles will take care of running the perl script to regenerate them when the text file changes, so no user action is required when a new error is added.
