Description: See details from Bug #213. Family member file size wasn't saved
anywhere in file. When family file is opened, the first member size determine
the member size.
Solution: This is the fourth step of checkin. A test suit is added for h5repart,
including a program to generate the test files, a script file to run h5repart,
and a program to verify repartitioned files can be opened by the library.
There's a change from the first step of checkin. Family name template is no
longer saved in the superblock because different pathname can make the name
different.
In the third step of checkin, h5repart has been modified. If h5repart is used
to change the size of family member file, the new size(actual member size) is saved
in the superblock.
In the second step of checkin, multi driver is checked against the driver
name saved in superblock. Wrong driver will result in a failure with an error message indicating
multi driver should be used. This change includes split driver because it's a special case for multi
driver.
In the first step of checkin. Family member size and name template(unused at this stage) are saved
in file superblock. When file is reopened,the size passed in thrin superblock. A different size
will trigger a failure with an error message indicating the right size. Wrong driver to open family
file will cause a failure, too.

Add API calls allowing user control of the metadata cache.
Description:
Prior to this update, the metadata cache was not configurable
from outside the library.
Solution:
Add API calls allowing the user to configure the metadata cache
either at file open time, or for any open file. Also added calls
permitting the user to monitor cache size and hit rate. These
latter facilities are needed for "manual" cache size control

Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up collective chunking code a bit.
Also, add '--enable-instrument' configure flag to have a mechanism for
determining that optimized operations happened correctly in the library (instead
of just the "normal" way) by allowing 'flag' properties to be set outside the
library and set when the "right" thing happens. This is mainly for debugging
and regression checks, so we make certain we don't break optimized I/O by
accident. It's enabled by default when --enable-debug is on (which is on by
default in the development branch and off by default in the release branch),
but can also be independently controlled with its own configure flag.

Code optimization
Description:
Refactor B-tree code to extract all common information for a B-tree into a
shared structure that is pointed to by all the nodes in tree (instead of being
included in each node).
Also re-order B-tree node comparison checks for chunked datasets to
check for >= the upper node first, since the comparison is a bit "heavy" and
this check is more likely to succeed when you are adding records to the
dataset.

Bug fix
Description:
The "shared" raw B-tree node can get freed before all the B-tree nodes
had been flushed out to disk and released by the cache.
Solution:
Implement a simple reference counting wrapper for objects in the library
and use it to hold the shared raw B-tree nodes so they aren't freed before all
references to them in memory are released.

Code optimization
Description:
Since the raw B-tree nodes are the same size and only used when reading in
or writing out a B-tree node, move raw B-tree node buffer from being per node
to a single node that is shared among all B-tree nodes of a particular tree,
freeing up a lot of space and eliminating lots of memory copies, etc.

Code cleanup

much easier when C99 is standard on all our supposed platforms, since it has a
__FUNC__ macro... )

Bug fix
Description:
When a non-default indexed storage B-tree internal 'K' value is set by the
user, the chunked datasets created in that file (until it is closed) use the
user's 'K' value and the data can be accessed correctly, but the 'K' value is
not stored in the file.
However, once the file is closed and re-opened, the non-default 'K' value
is lost and the data in the chunked datasets will not be able to be accessed
correctly.
Solution:
Store the indexed storage B-tree internal 'K' value in the superblock.

Bug fix, refactored code
Description:
Fixed closing objects for "strong" file degree, which previously would
sometime attempt to close the same object twice (when a named datatype and
a dataset which used it were both left open before the file was closed).
Stopped datatype iteration from querying for the group entry of non-named
datatypes.
Added attributes to the list of objects that can be queried by
H5Fget_obj_count and H5Fget_obj_ids, since they can hold open a file also.
Took a suggestion from Robb to return the number of open objects
in the return values of H5Fget_obj_count and H5Fget_obj_ids.
Also, added a "max_objs" parameter to the H5Fget_obj_ids function, so that
it can work well with staticly allocated arrays.

New feature/enhancement
Description:
Chunked datasets are handled poorly in several circumstances involving
certain selections and chunks that are too large for the chunk cache and/or
chunks with filters, causing the chunk to be read from disk multiple times.
Solution:
Rearrange raw data I/O infrastructure to handle chunked datasets in a much
more friendly way by creating a selection in memory and on disk for each chunk
in a chunked dataset and performing all of the I/O on that chunk at one time.
There are still some scalability (the current code attempts to
create a selection for all the chunks in the dataset, instead of just the
chunks that are accessed, requiring portions of the istore.c and fillval.c
tests to be commented out) and performance issues, but checking this in will
allow the changes to be tested by a much wider audience while I address the
remaining issues.

Refactoring of Flush Logic
Description:
The Flushing logic passed in multiple flags to indicate what type of
flush it was: closing, invalidate, alloc only. This made extending
the function of the flush logic to handle other flags annoying.
Solution:
I changed it to be just one bitmasked flag to indicate what type of
flushing to do. I also added the CLEAR_ONLY flag, which will be used
in the FPHDF5 stuff.
Platforms tested:
h5committest doesn't work for me (my environment isn't setup on the
other machines I guess). I tested it manually:

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 Feature. Support for new FPHDF5 Feature
Description:
More support for the FPHDF5 feature. This splits the H5D_create
function into separate parts which update the metadata cache. It was
necessary to split apart the H5O_create function to do a similar
thing since it would allocate real space on the hard disk.
I'm checking this up now so that I don't get too far away from what
the CVS repository has and so that others may look at the code and
retch^H^H^H^H^Hmarvel at it. If there are any comments, send them my
way.
There is one outstanding issue, though. I need to use non-API
functions in the FPHDF5 stuff. I'm using some APIs right now and
should migrate to using others. At the moment, I'm putting that on
the back burner until I'm more along in the implementation.

Bug Fix
Description:
The NBYTE{ENCODE,DECODE} macros were updating the pointer "p" to a
new value instead of one of the "real" pointers passed into the
macro.
Solution:
Changed it so that it updates the destination pointer which gets
passed into these macros.
I'm not sure if this is correct, since neither of these macros are
actually used in our source code...

They aren't used, so no testing possible.

Bug fix/Code cleanup/New Feature
Description:
Correct problems with writing fill-values to external storage and allocate
the data storage at the correct times.
Also, mostly straighten out the strange code which allocates and fills
raw data storage for datasets. Things are still a bit odd in that the
fill-values for chunked datasets are written when the space is allocated,
instead of in a separate routine, but there are two reasons for this:
it's inefficient (especially in parallel) to iterate through all the chunks
twice, and (more importantly) the space needed to store compressed chunks
isn't known until we've got a buffer of compressed fill-values ready to
write to the chunk.
Additionally, add in the H5D_SPACE_ALLOC_INCR and H5D_SPACE_ALLOC_DEFAULT
setting for the "space time", which incorporate the previous behavior of
the space allocation for chunked datasets.
The default settings for the different types of dataset storage are now
as follows:
Contiguous - Late
Chunked - Incremental
Compact - Early
This checkin also incorporates a change to the behavior of external data
storage in two ways - fill-values are _never_ written to external storage
(under the assumption that writing fill-values is triggered by allocating
space in an HDF5 file, and since space is not allocated in the file, the
fill-values should not be written) and external data files are now created
if they don't exist when data is written to them. The fill-value will
probably need to be revisited at some time in the future, this just seemed
like the safer course currently.
I think I cleaned up some compiler errors also, before getting bogged down
in the fixes for the space allocation and fill-values.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) w/serial & parallel. Will be testing on IRIX64
6.5 (modi4) in serial & parallel shortly.

Additional regression tests & bug fixes
Description:
There was no testing for the H5Dget_storage_size function and it seemed to
be having problems with compressed, chunked datasets, so write some tests
to verify that its working correctly.
Also, fix case for allocating storage early for chunked datasets

Bug fix.
Description:
The chunking code was using internal allocation routines to put blocks on
a free list for reuse, instead of using the system allocation routines (ie.
malloc, free, etc.). This causes problems when user filters attempt to
allocate/free chunks for their algorithm's use.
Solution:
Switched the chunking code back to using the system allocation routines,
we can address performance issues with them if it becomes a real problem.

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).

Code cleanup
Description:
Previously, the I/O pipeline (pline), external file list (efl) and fill-
value (fill) structs were passed down the raw data function call chain,
even into and/or through functions which didn't use them. Since all three
of these pieces of information are available from the dataset creation
property list, just pass the dataset creation property list down the
function call chain and query for the information needed in a particular
function.

Purpose:
H5Dset_extent API function
Description:
1 new public function: H5Dset_extent, that allows shrinking a dataset
several private functions that free the previously allocated chunks
H5F_istore_prune_by_extent, H5B_prune_by_extent : removes the chunks
H5F_istore_initialize_by_extent : initializes them with the fill value
H5S_select_fill is used to fill the selection in the memory buffer

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...

Bug Fix
Description:
When file space was returned to the file space free-list for reuse,
occasionally raw data allocations which used space from the free-list
would overlap with the metadata accumulator and get over-written with
the cached information in the accumulator, corrupting the data.
Solution:
Check if the space about to be recycled on the free-list is going to be
used for raw data and also overlaps with the metadata accumulator cache,
avoiding using space that fits those criteria.

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.

Bug Fix
Description:
The file metadata macros generate unaligned access warnings on the IA64
architecture.
Solution:
Got rid of bogus big-endian vs. little-endian differentiation when encoding
and decoding file metadata and use proper set of macros to prevent unaligned
access problems.
This fixes bug #672.
