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.

Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)

Code cleanup
Description:
Combined H5P_isa_class and H5I_object functionality into a new internal
H5P API function: H5P_object_verify, which checks that a property list is
the appropriate class and then returns the property list object associated
with the property list ID.
This reduces the source code by about 200 LOC and trims the library binary
some more.

Code cleanup
Description:
Change most (all?) HRETURN_ERROR macros to HGOTO_ERROR macros, along with
HRETURN macros to HGOTO_DONE macros. This unifies the error return path
from functions and reduces the size of the library by up to 10% on some
platforms.
Additionally, I improved a lot of the error cleanup code in many routines.

New feature.

Code Cleanup
Description:
Removed some compiler warnings.
Solution:
In a few cases, NULL was being returned when a FAIL was supposed to
be returned instead. There were some header files which needed to be
included in a few of the sources. A couple of if-then statements had
assignments in the conditional part. The compiler warned that they
should have extra "()"s around them. Made the code check the values
instead.

Code cleanup
Description:
Broke the FUNC_ENTER macro into several macros, with more specialized
uses (which followup mail will describe). This was designed to move
most/all of the checks which could be done at compile time to that point,
instead of needlessly performing them (over & over :-) at run-time.
This reduces the library's size (and thus staticly linked binaries) and
has a minor speedup effect also.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) with parallel & FORTRAN enabled, and additional testing
on FreeBSD and Solaris immediately after the checkin.

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.

Bug Fix & Feature
Description:
The selection offset was being ignored for optimized hyperslab selection
I/O operations.
Additionally, I've found that the restrictions on optimized selection
I/O operations were too strict and found a way to allow more hyperslabs
to use the optimized I/O routines.
Solution:
Incorporate the selection offset into the selection location when performing
optimized I/O operations.
Allow optimized I/O on any single hyperslab selection and also allow
hyperslab operations on chunked datasets.

Document bug fix.
Description:

Bug Fix
Description:
When writing (or reading) the entire dataset to a chunked dataset, there
was a boundary case where the code to generate the description of the
piece of the dataset to read into the buffer for data conversion would
attempt to read off the boundary of the dataset. This was occuring because
the code to detect the edge of the dataset was not propagating the change
up through the remaining dimensions when an edge in a fast changing
dimension was detected.
Solution:
Propagate edge detection up through slower changing dimensions properly.

Kludge
Description:
Since we're only about halfway through converting the internal use of
property lists from the "old way" to the generic property lists, we turned
off snapshots to avoid exposing lots of API changes to users, until the
APIs settled down.
Getting the snapshots rolling again seems to have become a priority, so
some changes are going to have to be made now that were going to be
postponed until we were completely finished with the conversion. This
requires that the old API functions be able to deal with both the old
and new property lists smoothly.
Solution:
Kludge together the property list code so that they can transparently handle
dealing with both the old and new property lists

Code cleanup (sorta)
Description:
When the first versions of the HDF5 library were designed, I remembered
vividly the difficulties of porting code from a 32-bit platform to a 16-bit
platform and asked that people use intn & uintn instead of int & unsigned
int, respectively. However, in hindsight, this was overkill and
unnecessary since we weren't going to be porting the HDF5 library to
16-bit architectures.
Currently, the extra uintn & intn typedefs are causing problems for users
who'd like to include both the HDF5 and HDF4 header files in one source
module (like Kent's h4toh5 library).
Solution:
Changed the uintn & intn's to unsigned and int's respectively.

New Features!
Description:
Start migrating the internal use of property lists in the library from the
older implementation to the new generic property lists.
Currently, only the dataset transfer property lists are migrated to the
new architecture, all the rest of the property list types are still using
the older architecture.
Also, the backward compatibility features are not implemented yet, so
applications which use dataset transfer properties may need to make the
following changes:
H5Pcreate(H5P_DATASET_XFER) -> H5Pcreate_list(H5P_DATASET_XFER_NEW)
and
H5Pclose(<a dataset transfer property list>) -> H5Pclose_list(id)
This still may have some bugs in it, especially with Fortran, but I should
be wrapping up those later today.

Document bug fix
Description:
IMPORTANT! IMPORTANT! IMPORTANT!
A case where metadata in a file could get corrupted in certain unusual
sitations was detected and fixed.
In certain circumstances, metadata could get cached in the raw data cache,
and if that particular piece of metadata was updated on disk while
incorrectly cached, the new metadata would get overwritten with the stale
metadata from the raw data cache when it was flushed out.
Additionally, I've patched up the raw data cache to be smarter about how
much it caches and how much I/O it triggers, leading to some speedups.
Solution:
Changed the raw data I/O routines which perform caching to require a
parameter with the size of the dataset being accessed and limited the
cache to no more than that many bytes.

Bug Fixes
Description:
Fixed a bug in H5Shyper.c where 'contiguous' hyperslabs (i.e. ones which
took up an entire dataset) were not being detected correctly and would
instead be read a part at a time instead of all at once.
Also fixed a bug in the handling of hyperslabs for chunked datasets where
hyperslabs from chunks which weren't aligned on exact dimension bounaries
were not reading/writing data correctly.
Solution:
H5Shyper.c was a single line change from a 'block' size to a 'count' size.
H5Fseq.c changes we much more significant and involved detecting when
non-chunk aligned sequences of data were being written and constructing
hyperslab blocks to pass down to the chunking I/O routine (which only
understand hyperslab I/O requests, not element sequence requests).
This was complicated by the need to align the hyperslabs requested on
dimension boundaries...
