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:

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.

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: Hopefully, this is the last step of checkin for this stage. This step
mainly enables h5repart tool to be able to convert file driver from family to
sec2. Because the library saves family information in file, in trying to convert
to sec2 driver, the library simply change the address of driver information to
undefined so that the driver information block can be ignored. This step also
updates the reference manual of H5Pset_fapl_family() and h5repart.
In the fifth step of checkin, backward compatibility with v1.6
is tested. A family file created was created with the v1.6 library and opened
with this version of the library.
In 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.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss.

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

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:

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

freeing up a lot of space and eliminating lots of memory copies, etc.

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.

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.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel
Misc. update:
Updated release_docs/RELEASE

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)}
Other platforms/configurations tested?
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel
Solaris 2.6 (baldric) serial

Description:
If user block is set, H5Dget_offset should be able to return the absolute
offset from the beginning of file.
Platforms tested:
eirene, arabica

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.
Platforms tested:
Arabica (C++)
Eirene (Parallel)
Modi4 (Parallel)

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...
Platforms tested:
They aren't used, so no testing possible.

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

Purpose:
__DLL__ is a keyword in some platforms and __DLL__ is also defined as a macro for windows DLL applications.
That causes problems.
Description:
Solution:
Use H5_DLL*** to replace __DLL***__ at all header files.
Change the macro defination at H5api_adpt.h.
Platforms tested:
linux2.2.18smp, irix64, solaris 2.7 and windows 2000
