* [svn-r12902] Checkin of Shared Object Header Message work.James Laird2006-11-131-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | This feature is still in progress; Shared Object Header Messages are not complete as a feature and are not thoroughly tested. There are still "TODO" comments in the code (comments with the word "JAMES" in them, so as not to be confused with other TODO comments). Hopefully this checkin will reduce the liklihood of conflicts as I finish implementing this feature. All current tests pass on juniper, copper (parallel), heping, kagiso, and mir.
* [svn-r12774] Modified flush code in the metadata cache to allow it toJohn Mainzer2006-10-181-2/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | handle flush callbacks which can dirty other entries, and resize and/or rename the target entry. This feature is needed by the fractal heap code. Also added associated test code. H5Commit tested. Test failed on heping, but the error appears to be a syntax error in an un-related file. Tests on copper & sol passed, along with tests on phoenix.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Interim checkin of code changes moving management of the is_dirty flag into the cache code. Description: Prior to this checkin, management of the is_dirty flag was handled above the level of the metadata cache. This can no longer be allowed, as it introduces a race condition in the proposed fix for a cache coherency bug in PHDF5. Solution: Move management fo the is_dirty flag to the cache code proper. Entries are now marked as dirty via a flag on the unprotect call. Platforms tested: h5committested Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Provide facilities in cache to allow us to avoid a potential cache consistency bug in the parallel case. 2) Clean up a off by one sanity checking bug. 3) Turn off execution of long running tests in debug mode. Description: 1) In the parallel case, all writes to metadata must be collective, but reads may not be. In pricipal, this allows us to different contents in different caches. This isn't a problem as long as the correct data is always on disk, but unless we can force certain writes immediately, that need not be the case. 2) & 3) should need no further explanation. Solution: 1) Add code allowing us to mark cache entries, and then force these entries to be flushed at a later time. Note that to actually avoid the bug, we will have to modify existing code to use these new features. 2) & 3) should need no further explanation. Platforms tested: heping (serial debug and production) committest (copper, sol, and heping). test failed on heping in the c++ portion of the build, but at Quincey's siggestion, I am proceeding with the checkin.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-) Description: Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections. However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch, but not the other. I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label "before_signed_unsigned_changes".

* [svn-r8946] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-07-261-15/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup, sorta Description: Added ifdef sections for "H5_USING_PURIFY" in various places in the code, which are designed to reduce the spurious "uninitialized memory read" warnings from purify which are actually OK. Note that this macro will have to be turned on by adding it to the CFLAGS for the build - I didn't think it was important enough to add a configure flag for. Also, the changes in H5HG.c optimize the walks through the objects in a heap to only look at the 'used' entries instead of all the 'allocated' entries.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Bug Fix Description: If an HDF5 file grows larger than its address space, it dies and is unable to write any data. This is more likely to happen since users are able to change the number of bytes used to store addresses in the file. Solution: HDF5 now throws an error instead of dying. In addition, it "reserves" address space for the local heap and for object headers (which do not allocate space immediately). This ensures that after the error occurs, there is enough address space left to flush the entire file to disk, so no data is lost.

* [svn-r8791] Purpose: Rewrote metadata cache (H5AC.c, etc.) to improve ↵John Mainzer2004-07-021-29/+158
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | performance. Description: Replaced the old metadata cache with a cache with a modified LRU replacement policy. This should improve the hit rate. Solution: Since we want to flush cache entries in increasing address order, I used the threaded binary B-tree code to store the cache entries. There is a fair bit of overhead here, so we may want to consider other options. While the code is designed to allow the support of other replacement algorithms, at present, only a modified version of LRU is supported. The modified LRU algorithm requires that a user selectable portion of the cache entries be clean. The clean entries are evicted first when writes are not permitted. If the pool of clean entries is used up, the cache grows beyond its user specified maximum size. The cache can also exceed its maximum size if the combined size of the protected (or locked) entries exceeds the maximum size of the cache.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup & minor optimization Description: Re-work the way interface initialization routines are specified in the library to avoid the overhead of checking for them in routines where there is no interface initialization routine. This cleans up warnings with gcc 3.4, reduces the library binary size a bit (about 2-3%) and should speedup the library's execution slightly.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Clean up compiler warnings, especially the 'FUNC' variable not used which comes out in production mode. Solution: Had to add a new FUNC_ENTER_NOAPI_NOINIT_NOFUNC macro for those non-API functions which don't need the 'FUNC' variable defined. (This will be _so_ much easier when C99 is standard on all our supposed platforms, since it has a __FUNC__ macro... ) Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) too minor for h5committest (although there were lots of files changed, the change was minor in each one)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Variable length strings and sequences with NULL pointers were not handled by library, causing problems access the data. This also affected fill values for variable-length datatypes. Solution: Address the issues in the library by detecting NULL sequences/strings and avoid trying to convert them. Patched up dumper to display NULL sequences/strings. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) h5committest

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fixes and code cleanup Description: Lots of changes here: - Fixed bug #691 - when shared datatypes are used in attributes they are incorrectly copied into the attribute instead of referring the the named datatype in the file. This required bumping the version of the attribute message. The new version of the attribute message is only written out when a shared datatype is used in the attribute. [Also, this format change made the size of the attribute smaller.] - Added information to attribute debugging routine so that shared datatypes are displayed correctly with the h5debug tool. - Refactored the H5O* routines to extract code that was common to several routines into subroutines to call. - Added 'link' method for H5O message sub-classes, which increments the link count on shared objects when a message is created which shares them. - Corrected [unreported] bug where the link count was not being decremented on the shared object when a object header message with a reference to that object was deleted from the file. - Reduced size of shared message from 49 bytes (which was incorrect anyway and should have been 48 bytes) to 10 bytes, which required bumping the version of "shared" messages. - Refactored some of the shared datatype routines to allow for easier queries of "committedness" internally to the library and also added routine to easily increment/decrement the reference count of a shared datatype.

* [svn-r7460] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-09-101-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update Description: Added extra parameter to the H5AC_protect() function that indicates if the cache being asked for is going to be written to or just read from. Those AC_protect calls that were H5AC_find calls are now read-only. The rest are writes. Platforms tested: Linux (h5committest not needed due to size and small impact) Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Removal of H5AC_find() Description: The H5AC_find() function is mostly redundant and with the new Flexible Parallel HDF5 stuff, we need to do locking on metadata returned from the H5AC_find() anyway. So, all of the locking stuff will be placed in the H5AC_{un}protect() functions. The H5AC_find() is no longer needed. Solution: Replaced all H5AC_finds with H5AC_protects and H5AC_unprotects.

* [svn-r7445] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-09-041-6/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix, of a sort Description: Some of the code would get an object from the cache via the H5AC_find() function and then modify the returned object. This behavior is incorrect as the pointer returned via the H5AC_find() function is supposed to be read only. Solution: Changed the H5AC_finds to H5AC_protect() instead and added the appropriate H5AC_unprotect() function.

* [svn-r7369] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-08-151-8/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: The metadata cache 'destroy' callback routines need the file handle in order for certain callback routines (currently just the H5HG one) to perform extra cleanups. The recent change to call the 'destroy' callback from the 'clear' callback omitted this parameter. Solution: Add the file handle to the metadata cache 'clear' callbacks. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) too small to need h5committest
* [svn-r7367] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-08-151-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update Description: Added an extra flag to the clear functions that triggers a "destroy" of the object being cleared if necessary. This is a fix for the FPHDF5 stuff which had an object sticking around after it was cleared. (In FPHDF5, some processes are in charge of destroying the object, but all processes might actually allocate the object.)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix Description: The H5HG module had a couple of lines like the following: HDmemcpy(foo + 1, foo, size); This would overwrite the first character of "foo" for the total of "size" bytes.

Description: The global heap 'dirty' flag was missed in the last round of changes to the metadata cache and was not using the new "cache_info.dirty" flag. Solution: Switched to using correct flag for marking dirty objects in the metadata cache. Also, added new metadata callback for marking a piece of metadata as clean without writing it back to the file.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) serial & parallel and IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) serial & parallel.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix Description: It was possible to create corrupted metadata information (either in memory or in the file or both) with a parallel I/O program because of the way metadata writes were being handled for writes out of the metadata cache. Solution: Added a dataset transfer property called "block before metadata write" which is used by the MPI-I/O and MPI-posix drivers to sync up all the processes before attempting a metadata write. This property is currently only for metadata writes from the metadata cache. Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/parallel

| | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Fix bug Description: In function H5HG_remove, heap object header wasn't included for size. Solution: Added heap object header in. Platforms tested: Linux 2.2(eirene).
* [svn-r5471] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-291-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: Took Robb's recent ideas for improving the FUNC_ENTER/FUNC_LEAVE macros equivalents in the SAF library and adapted them to our library. I added an additional macro which is equivalent to FUNC_ENTER: FUNC_ENTER_NOINIT - Has the API tracing code, etc. from FUNC_ENTER but none of the library or interface initialization code. This is to be used _only_ for static functions and those which explicitly cannot have the library or interface initialization code enabled (like the API termination routines, etc.). This allowed many more of the functions in the library [but not all yet :-(] to be wrapped with FUNC_ENTER[_NOINIT]/FUNC_LEAVE pairs. It also reduced the size of the library and executables (by cutting out a bunch of code which was never executed), I'll e-mail the exact results when I've finished editing it. Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
