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.

Code cleanup/new feature.
Description:
Split FUNC_LEAVE into API and non-API specific versions. This allows a
solution to compiling this branch with C++, as well as reducing the size
of the binaries produced.
Platforms tested:

Lots of performance improvements & a couple new internal API interfaces.
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.
Additionally, these changes reduce the total memory used (code and
data) by the development branch by ~800KB, bringing the development
branch back into the same ballpark as the release branch.
I'll send out a more detailed description of the benchmark results
as a followup note.
New internal API routines:
Added "reference counted strings" API for tracking strings that get
used by multiple owners without duplicating the strings.
Added "ternary search tree" API for text->object mappings.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}

Purpose:
Feature; Optimization
Description:
Clients pass `-1' or make their own #define for HDF5 functions
that take an optional object ID.
Blue's GPFS is slow for typical SAF restart dumps.
Solution:
Added a #define for H5I_INVALID_HID
Added GPFS-specific code to H5FDmpiposix.c that tells mmfsd to
forego byte range token prefetching. This code can be compiled
into the library by defining USE_GPFS_HINTS. The plan is to either
generalize this so it's detected during configure and turned
on/off at runtime, or to move it up into DSL/SAF with the new HDF5
functions to that return the low-level file handle.
Platforms tested:
SuSE Linux (arborea), gcc and mpich-1.2.4
SunOS (baldric), gcc

Purpose:
New API functions
Description:
Added API functions to return pointer to low-level file handle
(H5Fget_vfd_handle and H5FDget_vfd_handle) and related property list
setting functions(H5Pset_family_offset and H5Pset_multi_type).

Code cleanup
Description:
Combined H5P_isa_class and H5I_object functionality into a new internal
H5P API function: H5P_object_verify, which checks that a property list is
the appropriate class and then returns the property list object associated
with the property list ID.
This reduces the source code by about 200 LOC and trims the library binary
some more.

Purpose:

Description:
API tracing improvements
Platforms tested:
Linux (--disable-hsizet didn't work before my changes and still doesn't
work, but --enable-hsizet is fine).
Note: This checkin includes temporary code in H5FDmpiposix.c to turn
off GPFS byte range token prefetches on ASCI/Blue. Once the HDF5 API
supports the necessary prerequisite functionality this temporary code
can be migraged up above HDF5.

Code cleanup
Description:
Change most (all?) HRETURN_ERROR macros to HGOTO_ERROR macros, along with
HRETURN macros to HGOTO_DONE macros. This unifies the error return path
from functions and reduces the size of the library by up to 10% on some
platforms.
Additionally, I improved a lot of the error cleanup code in many routines.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) serial & parallel and IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) serial &
parallel.

Bug Fix
Description:
It was possible to create corrupted metadata information (either in memory
or in the file or both) with a parallel I/O program because of the way
metadata writes were being handled for writes out of the metadata cache.
Solution:
Added a dataset transfer property called "block before metadata write"
which is used by the MPI-I/O and MPI-posix drivers to sync up all the
processes before attempting a metadata write. This property is currently
only for metadata writes from the metadata cache.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/parallel

New feature.
Description:
Added MPI-posix VFL driver. This driver uses MPI to coordinate actions, but
performs I/O directly with posix sec(2) I/O functions. This driver should
_NOT_ be used if the file accessed is not on a parallel filesystem.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) w/parallel & IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/parallel
