| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: h5committested and maybe another dozen configurations.... :-)

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. Platforms tested: H5committest, heping(parallel & serial) Misc. update:

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

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".

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Mainzer2004-07-021-0/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

Added flushing if it's an FPHDF5 driver and we're doing an AC_set or AC_unprotect with the dirty flag set. H5B.c - Split up the B_flush function into different functions since the one function was doing serialization which is better left as a separate entity. H5D.c - Removed some FPHDF5 code that was incorrect H5F.c - Split up the F_flush function so that it no longer allocates file space. Created new functions (F_init_superblock, F_read_superblock, and F_write_superblock) for greater modularity and so that the FPHDF5 non-captain processes can read the superblock after the captain process writes it. H5FD.c - Error message correction. H5FDfphdf5.c - Removed MPI barrier call that wasn't needed. H5FPclient.c H5FPserver.c - Modified so that if a process requests data that isn't exactly aligned, we can return it if we have the block that contains the requested address. H5G.c H5Gent.c H5Gnode.c H5HL.c H5HLpkg.h H5HLprivate.h H5Oefl.c - Removed the H5HL_peek function since it was doing a (now unsafe) holding of the information in the cache. Replaced with protect and unprotect calls. H5TB.c - Error fix. The TB_dless function wasn't working properly. H5Gstab.c - Format change.

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

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

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

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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)
* [svn-r5390] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-101-14/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: The parallel I/O file driver is optimized to only write metadata with one process (and broadcast the results to the other processes). This is currently enabled by a separate call to H5FD_mpio_tas_allsame() before each metadata write to the file. This can easily lead to problems where the prelude function call is omitted before the actual write code or, in a threaded environment, lead to race condititions where the value set is reset before being used. Solution: Since we only want to write metadata from one process, key off of the 'type' parameter (which has information about whether the data being written it metadata or raw data) to H5FD_mpio_write() as the method for determining whether to only write from one process or not. Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup for better compatibility with C++ compilers Description: C++ compilers are choking on our C code, for various reasons: we used our UNUSED macro incorrectly when referring to pointer types we used various C++ keywords as variables, etc. we incremented enum's with the ++ operator. Solution: Changed variables, etc.to avoid C++ keywords (new, class, typename, typeid, template) Fixed usage of UNUSED macro from this: char UNUSED *c to this: char * UNUSED c Switched the enums from x++ to x=x+1 Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)
* [svn-r4355] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-08-141-7/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)

| | | | | | | | | Bug Fix, Code Cleanup, Code Optimization, etc. Description: Fold in the hyperslab speedups, clean up compile warnings and change a few things from using 'unsigned' or 'hsize_t' to use 'size_t' instead. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.3 (hawkwind), Solaris 2.7 (arabica), Irix64 6.5 (modi4)
* [svn-r4038] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-06-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Code clean/bug fix Description: H5FL (free-list manager) code currently is taking an hsize_t as the size of a memory block to allocate. On many machines, the size of an hsize_t is greater than the size of a size_t, potentially leading to incorrect memory allocations in rare circumstances. Solution: Changed hsize_t parameters and variables to size_t. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.3 (hawkwind)
* [svn-r3781] Purpose:Bill Wendling2001-04-051-13/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update Description: Changed #include <hdf_file.h> construct to #include "hdf_file.h" so that the GNU compiler can more easily pick up the dependencies which it places in the .depend and Dependencies files. Also regenerated the Dependencies to go along with this. Platforms tested: Linux
* [svn-r3252] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-01-091-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup. Description: Fixed _lots_ (I mean _tons_) of warnings spit out by the gcc with the extra warnings. Including a few show-stoppers for compression on IRIX machines. Solution: Changed lots of variables' types to more sensible and consistent types, more range-checking, more variable typecasts, etc. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.2 (hawkwind), IRIX64-64 (modi4)
