New feature for developers.
Description:
Added "function stack" tracing to library. This allows developers (there
is no public API) to call H5FS_print within the library and get a listing
of the functions traversed to reach that point in the library. Eventually,
I may add support for reporting the parameters to each function also...
Mainly for debugging parallel I/O programs, but I think it will come in
handy in other cases also.
The function stack tracking is controlled with a configure switch:
--enable-funcstack, which defaults to enabled currently. When we branch
for 1.6, we should change the default setting on the branch to be disabled.
Also, added a destructor to the thread-specific keys when thread-safety is
turned on in the library. Otherwise, they were leaking memory and causing
difficult to debug errors in threaded programs (like the test/ttsafe test).
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) w/thread-safety enabled.
Misc. update:
Updated MANIFEST with new files added (src/H5FS.c & src/H5FDprivate.h)
Update release_docs/RELEASE with thread-safety bug fix.
