2594). According to Quincey's suggestion, I moved the EOAs for individual files from H5FD_multi_fapl_t to H5FD_multi_t struct. It's a more proper place.

whole MULTI file saved in the
super block. We took it out in v1.8 library because it's meaningless
for the MULTI file. v1.8 library saves the EOA for the metadata file,
instead. But this caused some backward compatibility problem.
v1.8 library couldn't open the file created with v1.6 library. I
fixed the problem by checking the EOA value to detect the file
created with v1.6 library.
Tested on jam, koala, and heiwa.

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.

New feature
Description:
Check in baseline for compact group revisions, which radically revises the
source code for managing groups and object headers.
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
This initiates the "unstable" phase of the 1.7.x branch, leading up
to the 1.8.0 release. Please test this code, but do _NOT_ keep files created
with it - the format will change again before the release and you will not
be able to read your old files!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
Solution:
There's too many changes to really describe them all, but some of them
include:
- Stop abusing the H5G_entry_t structure and split it into two separate
structures for non-symbol table node use within the library: H5O_loc_t
for object locations in a file and H5G_name_t to store the path to
an opened object. H5G_entry_t is now only used for storing symbol
table entries on disk.
- Retire H5G_namei() in favor of a more general mechanism for traversing
group paths and issuing callbacks on objects located. This gets us out
of the business of hacking H5G_namei() for new features, generally.
- Revised H5O* routines to take a H5O_loc_t instead of H5G_entry_t
- Lots more...
Platforms tested:
h5committested and maybe another dozen configurations.... :-)

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.

Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
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".

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.

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.

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).
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.2(eirene), Solaris 2.7(arabica), IRIX64 6.5(modi4)

New feature.
Description:
Added a "small data" block allocation mechanism to the library, similar to
the mechanism used for allocating metadata currently.
See the RFC for more details:
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/SmallData/SmallData.html
This reduces the number of I/O operations which hit the disk for my test
program from 19 to 15 (i.e. from 393 to 15, overall).
Platforms tested:
Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/FORTRAN and FreeBSD 4.5 (sleipnir) w/C++

New Feature
Description:
The VFL flush function is called immediately before a file is closed.
This can cause duplicate syncronization actions to occur, if the VFL
close function also performs them.
Solution:
Added 'closing' parameter to VFL 'flush' operation. This allows the VFL
flush function to bypass operations that will be duplicated within the VFL
close function.
Additionally, use the 'closing' parameter to bypass calls to MPI_File_sync()
when set. Since MPI_File_close() also syncronizes the file, this avoids
the terrible performance hit taken when calling MPI_File_sync() as the file
is closing.
