* [svn-r12777] Added support to aligned file space allocation. The alignment ↵Raymond Lu2006-10-181-1/+47

| | | | | | | | H5Pset_fapl_direct be a structure and passed through driver info functions in H5FD_direct_open, H5FD_direct_read, and H5FD_direct_write. The external change is to add a new API function H5Pget_fapl_direct to query 3 control values, the memory boundary, file system block size, and the maximal buffer size for copying data.
* [svn-r12766] Made two changes to Direct I/O VFD: first added 3 parameters to ↵Raymond Lu2006-10-161-123/+168
| | | | | | | | H5Pset_fapl_direct to control memory boundary, file block size, and maximal copy buffer size; second in H5FD_direct_write and H5FD_direct_read, the library checks whether data buffer is aligned. If it is, then write and read the data directly instead of making a copy buffer.

Altix (cobalt). There's a configure option --enable-direct-vfd/--disable-direct-vfd to enable/disable Direct I/O support. The default is enabled. There's a small test in test/vfd.c. Another way to test it is to set environment variable HDF5_DRIVER to "direct" and run "make check" in the test/ directory. There'll be some further improvement in the following checkin including allowing user to provide memory boundary value, file block size, and copying buffer size.
