* [svn-r5550] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-06-071-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code Improvement Description: Split the metadata accumulator code into two parts: one for allowing writes of the accumulator buffer during reads (when the buffer is dirty and needs to be flushed to disk in order to hold the new metadata being read in) and another for only allowing writes of the buffer during writes. This allows the MPI-I/O VFL driver to use the metadata accumulator (but only during writes) and benefit from the reduced number of metadata I/O operations that it brings. Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/parallel
* [svn-r5536] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-06-051-0/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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++
* [svn-r5440] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-201-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | New feature Description: Add 'closing' parameter to H5FDflush and VFL "flush" functions, per http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/RFC/VFLFlush/VFLFlush.html Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
* [svn-r5403] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Back out changes. Description: Back out changes to VFL 'flush' API function, pending review. Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
* [svn-r5393] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
* [svn-r5096] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-03-271-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix Description: The H5Gget_objinfo() function was not setting the 'fileno' field in the H5G_stat_t struct passed in. Solution: Added a "file serial number" to each file currently open in the library and put that in the 'fileno' field. If a file is opened twice (with H5Fopen) and the VFL driver detects that it is the same file (i.e. the two file structures have the same "shared file info" in the library's memory structures), they will have the same serial number. This serial number has two drawbacks: - If a VFL driver doesn't/can't detect that two calls to H5Fopen with the same file actually _are_ the same file, each will get a different serial number - If the same file is closed and re-opened, the serial number will be different. It is be possible to fix the second drawback for many VFL drivers, but it would be a lot of effort and probably isn't worth it until we've got a good reason to do it. Dunno if we'll ever be able to fix the first drawback... Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.5 (sleipnir) VS: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
* [svn-r4696] Raymond Lu2001-12-111-17/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Modify H5Fclose behavior Description: The HDF5 actual file close behaves in several ways in terms of if there are still objects(dataset, group, datatype) opened in file. Solution: Added a new file access property, file close degree. It has four values, H5F_CLOSE_DEFAULT H5F_CLOSE_WEAK H5F_CLOSE_SEMI H5F_CLOSE_STRONG The way a file is closed is decided by these values. Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5, SunOS 5.6, FreeBSD 4.4
* [svn-r4181] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-07-101-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | Bug Fix, Code Cleanup, Code Optimization, etc. Description: Fold in the hyperslab speedups, clean up compile warnings and change a few things from using 'unsigned' or 'hsize_t' to use 'size_t' instead. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.3 (hawkwind), Solaris 2.7 (arabica), Irix64 6.5 (modi4)
* [svn-r3881] Purpose:Albert Cheng2001-05-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Feature Description: The allocation by alignment (H5Pset_alignment) feature code somehow got dropped in some 1.3.x version. Solution: Re-implemented it with "new and improved" algorithm. It keeps track of "wasted" file-fragment in the free-list too. Platforms tested: modi4(parallel).
* [svn-r3781] Purpose:Bill Wendling2001-04-051-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update Description: Changed #include <hdf_file.h> construct to #include "hdf_file.h" so that the GNU compiler can more easily pick up the dependencies which it places in the .depend and Dependencies files. Also regenerated the Dependencies to go along with this. Platforms tested: Linux
* [svn-r3008] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2000-11-281-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Several places in the code were using -2 as a default value for various features. However, when a default value is returned from a function that is supposed to return negative on failure, it was causing confusion and extra work for users to check for the special value. Solution: Replaced hard-coded -2 values in the code with symbolic names, then changed symbolic names to 0 instead of -2. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.2 (hawkwind)
* [svn-r2722] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2000-10-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Feature symmetry Description: A while ago I needed to get the 'type' of data being accessed during writes to the VFL driver, so I put in code to get the information down there. Albert asked for the same information during reads, so I've added that in. Tested: FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)
* [svn-r2600] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2000-09-261-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | Implemented new feature Description: Added data sieve buffering code to raw I/O data path. This is enabled for all the VFL drivers except the mpio & core drivers. Also added two new API functions to control the sieve buffer size: H5Pset_sieve_buf_size() and H5Pget_sieve_buf_size(). Platforms tested: Solaris 2.6 (i.e. baldric)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ---------------------- ./configure.in ./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED] The /usr/ncsa/{include,lib} directories are only added if they actually exist. This fixes a warning on some systems. Checks for the <pdb.h> header file and also for either the PDB or Silo library, and if found prepares to compile the pdb2hdf program. ./config/distdep Relative path names for include files are changed to base names since the makefile contains the logic for searching and since it's likely that building the .distdep files happed from a location other than where they would be used in the file system. ./config/conclude.in Fixed shell errors when `for' loops iterate over nothing for the `uninstall' target. ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5Oefl.c File names for the external files are added to the heap when the dataset is created instead of when the object header is written. This fixes a rare infinite recursion bug. ./src/H5FD.c ./src/H5FDpublic.h Optimization to the free list causes H5FD_alloc() usage to go from >10 seconds to <0.4 second for one example (converting a 30MB equation of state file from PDB to HDF5 format). The optimization is to simply keep track of the largest item in the free list and not search the free list when the largest item is not big enough to satisfy the request. ./src/H5FDcore.c ./src/H5FDcore.h ./test/h5test.c If the `backing_store' property is true then a flush causes the entire contents of memory to be written to the specified file. This is in preparation for the ASCI/red optimizations and is currently tested by the pdb2hdf `--cached' switch. ./src/H5Odtypes.c Wrapped three long lines. ./tools/Makefile.in ./tools/pdb2hdf.c [NEW] A PDB-to-HDF5 translator. It only translates meta data -- the resulting HDF5 points into the PDB file for the raw data.

Also added the API tracing call. ./src/H5F.c Added file opening optimizations. If the driver doesn't support the ability to determine when two file handles refer to the same file (like MPIO and GASS) then H5F_open() makes fewer calls to the driver's open callback. Also, if the tentative file access flags are the same as the original flags then H5F_open() makes fewer calls to the file device. ./src/H5FD.c ./src/H5FDprivate.h ./src/H5FDpublic.h Added H5FD_get_class() so the library can get information about what file driver callbacks are defined. This will be useful when more optimization functions are added to the VFL, such as for MPIO derived datatype I/O. ./src/H5FDcore.c ./src/H5FDfamily.c ./src/H5FDmpio.c ./src/H5FDmulti.c ./src/H5FDsec2.c The driver symbols (like H5FD_CORE, etc) are actually function calls. The functions were fixed to return correct values even after calling H5close(). ./src/H5FDmulti.c ./src/H5FDmulti.h Added support for opening a file when parts are missing (only if the caller explicitly allows that in the file access property list). Moved some common code sequences into macros or functions. Added better support for reopening files. All the application has to know is that the file is a multi file and the base name from which all the member names are created. More debugging output when the file is opened with the H5F_ACC_DEBUG flag. Fixed various bugs. ./src/H5Fistore.c Chunked raw data was accidently allocated as meta data instead of raw data. ./src/H5I.c The H5Iget_type() function fails when invoked with an old object ID (an ID which has been closed down). ./test/h5test.c Added an extra argument when setting the multi file access property lists so the test fails if it can't open one of the sub-files. ./tools/h5ls.c Improved the algorithm for deciding what file driver to use. It basically tries all of the predefined drivers and is now able to open family, split, and multi files without looking for special characters in the file name. Added `-e' and `--errors' switches which cause errors from libhdf5 to be reported on stderr in addition to the simple error message displayed by h5ls.

The H5Pset_fapl_split() function just calls H5Pset_fapl_multi() with arguments which prepare to split the address space into two files: meta and raw data. This is the first version. I plan to allow the open() call to relax a bit which would allow one to open an hdf5 file when only the meta-data file is present. This would allow a very large file to be split and stored on tape and the relatively small meta file to be mirrored on disk to allow limited browsing of the file (any request for raw data would fail). ./src/H5private.h ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5FD.c ./src/H5FDprivate.h ./src/H5FDpublic.h ./src/H5FDcore.c ./src/H5FDfamily.c ./src/H5FDmpio.c ./src/H5FDsec2.c Added the ability for a file driver to store information in the superblock which would be needed if the file were opened again later for reading. The format is driver-defined which allows users to extend it however they like. ./doc/html/H5.format.html Added information about the new driver information block of the superblock. This is where file drivers store information they need in order to reopen the file later. ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h ./src/H5FD.c ./src/H5FDprivate.h ./src/H5FDpublic.h ./src/H5FDcore.c ./src/H5FDfamily.c ./src/H5FDmpio.c ./src/H5FDsec2.c ./src/H5Fistore.c ./src/H5R.c The file access properties and the file access property list were decoupled, which allows the property list to more cleanly contain properties for various levels of the file and which allows the property list to be modified more cleanly when opening files. ./src/H5.c ./src/H5FDpublic.h Removed H5FD_MEM_META and H5FD_MEM_GROUP since they're never used. ./src/H5D.c Changed the way we detect the MPIO driver in all these special cases. ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5Rpublic.h ./test/tfile.c The default file sizeof(offset) was changed to be a function of haddr_t instead of hsize_t. THE H5RPUBLIC.H DEFINITIONS WILL HAVE PROBLEMS IF THE USER CREATES A FILE WITH NON-DEFAULT OFFSET AND SIZE SIZES! ./src/H5F.c Fixed an uninitialized memory access bug in file closing related to the VFL. ./src/H5T.c ./src/H5Tpublic.h Added an H5T_NATIVE_HADDR predefined datatype which corresponds to the `haddr_t' type. ./test/Makefile.in Reformatted long lines. ./test/big.c ./test/cmpd_dset.c ./test/dsets.c ./test/dtypes.c ./test/extend.c ./test/external.c Removed the H5F_ACC_DEBUG flag from file creation/open calls. ./test/big.c Plugged a memory leak. ./test/h5test.c Added support for the `multi' driver. Removed #warning about not having the stdio driver. Plans are to not implement it since the sec2 driver serves the same purpose and testing didn't show any difference in execution times between the two.

---------------------- This extensive change is the virtual file layer implementation. I've ported and tested the sec2, family, and core drivers and only ported the mpio driver (Albert will test it). So if you need MPIO I would recommend sticking with the previous version for a while. You will get a few compile warnings about split and stdio drivers not being implemented and possibly tracing information not inserted in some of the drivers. You can safely ignore them but I plan to fix them. I'm still working on the split driver because I just realized that it needs a part of the VFL that isn't written yet. Documentation is being updated also because there were some minor changes (mostly just name changes). It should be available on my web site later this week. ./MANIFEST ./src/Makefile.in ./src/hdf5.h ./src/H5Flow.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fstdio.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fsec2.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fsplit.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fmpio.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Ffamily.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fcore.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5MFpublic.h [REMOVED] ./src/H5FD.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDcore.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDcore.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDfamily.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDfamily.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDmpio.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDmpio.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDprivate.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDpublic.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDsec2.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDsec2.h [NEW] Removed/added files for virtual file layer. ./bin/trace ./src/H5.c Removed unused public datatypes and added new VFL public datatypes.

The default file driver is always the sec2 driver and it always optimizes calls to lseek() or lseek64(). ./config/depend.in C preprocessor errors generated during automatic dependency building are sent to /dev/null to prevent them from appearing twice in the make output. ./src/H5AC.c ./src/H5B.c ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5G.c ./src/H5Gent.c ./src/H5Gnode.c ./src/H5HG.c ./src/H5HL.c ./src/H5O.c ./src/H5Oattr.c ./src/H5Odtype.c ./src/H5Oefl.c ./src/H5Oshared.c ./src/H5T.c ./src/H5detect.c ./test/ohdr.c Changed H5F_ADDR_UNDEF to HADDR_UNDEF to be more consistent with the `haddr_t' datatype which is now a public type. ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5P.c ./src/H5Ppublic.h ./src/H5Tconv.c ./test/cmpd_dset.c ./test/dsets.c ./test/overhead.c ./test/tselect.c ./test/tvltypes.c The H5P_DATASET_XFER constant was changed to H5P_DATA_XFER because the properties apply to all types of I/O operations, not just datasets. ./src/H5B.c ./src/H5Bprivate.h ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5Dpublic.h ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5Farray.c ./src/H5Fistore.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h ./src/H5Fpublic.h ./src/H5Gnode.c ./src/H5Gpkg.h ./src/H5HG.c ./src/H5HL.c ./src/H5O.c ./src/H5R.c ./src/H5Sall.c ./src/H5Shyper.c ./src/H5Smpio.c ./src/H5Spoint.c ./src/H5Sprivate.h ./test/big.c ./test/h5test.c ./test/istore.c ./testpar/t_dset.c ./testpar/t_file.c ./tools/h5debug.c ./tools/h5ls.c Modified to work with the virtual file layer by calling H5FD_* functions instead of H5F_low_* functions and by passing file access and data transfer properties by object ID instead of pointer. Changed H5D_transfer_t to H5FD_mpio_xfer_t since the COLLECTIVE vs. INDEPENDENT transfer mode is specific to the MPIO file driver. Moved MPIO-specific stuff into the MPIO driver. ./src/H5B.c ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h The H5F_mpio_* private functions were renamed and placed in the H5FDmpio driver except those which appeared in H5Smpio.c. ./src/H5E.c ./src/H5Epublic.h Added major error number H5E_VFL for virtual file layer related errors. ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h Changed the logic that controls whether the boot block is written. Instead of assuming that the first call to write the boot block is only to allocate space, I've added a function argument which makes this explicit. Changed the way files are compared so that a driver-defined comparison function can be called. Files which belong to different drivers are always considered different. Removed H5F_driver_t since file drivers are now identified by object ID instead of a special non-user-extendible datatype. Removed all the hard-coded low-level file properties which have been replaced by the various file drivers. ./src/H5I.c ./src/H5Iprivate.h Added the H5I_inc_ref() which was removed a few months ago since we finally have a use for it. ./src/H5Ipublic.h Added the H5I_VFL object ID type to identify file drivers in the virtual file layer. ./src/H5MF.c ./src/H5MFprivate.h Moved all the allocation/deallocation code into the virtual file layer which allows file drivers to override much of it. ./src/H5P.c ./src/H5Ppublic.h Moved file driver-specific code into the various file driver files. The H5Pcopy() and H5Pclose() functions make calls into the virtual file driver to manage the memory for driver-specific file access and data transfer properties. ./src/H5private.h ./src/H5public.h The `haddr_t' type is now public. ./test/tfile.c Added a few more comments.
