* [svn-r8376] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-04-171-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Update null dataspace changes to try to write older version of dataspace information whenever possible. Refactor common code to only one location. Allow I/O operations to succeed on null dataspaces. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) h5committest
* [svn-r8330] Purpose: Last step of check-in for Null dataspaceRaymond Lu2004-04-081-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Description: Mainly are header message changes for dataspace. In last round of check-in, a new header message for dataspace to created, which is not a good way. Now, there will be no new message for dataspace, but just add the type of dataspace in the message while increment its version number. Backward compatibility is addressed. The attribute design is modified accordingly. Platforms tested: h5committest
* [svn-r8314] Purpose: Progressive check-inRaymond Lu2004-04-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Description: NULL dataspace. This step is mainly for dataspace header message and a test. Solution: The test mainly checks NULL dataspace features. Backward compatibility is tested in the fill value test. Platforms tested: h5committest
* [svn-r8301] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-04-061-15/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization Description: Move handling for free list arrays that have no maximum size to separate set of routines and optimize computations for free list arrays with maximum size to avoid re-computing sizes all the time. Platforms tested: h5committest Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
* [svn-r8287] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-03-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix/code cleanup Description: Copy Robb's feature in SSlib that checks that the name of the function used in the FUNC_ENTER macro is actually the name of function. Fixed a bunch of typos & copy-n-pasto's for functions with incorrect names. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r7917] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-12-061-21/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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)
* [svn-r7572] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-10-081-30/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: When too many messages were inserted into an object header, the library had an internal pointer to the "new message" that was pointing to the incorrect location when the array of messages was re-allocated. In the worst case, this could cause a file to be corrupted. Solution: Update the internal pointer when the array is re-allocated. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) Too small to require h5committest
* [svn-r7561] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-10-071-0/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | Feature add Description: Add a few new fields to the H5G_stat_t structure, to allow more information about the object header to be retrieved. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) h5committest
* [svn-r7538] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-10-051-224/+276
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) h5committest
* [svn-r7528] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-09-301-55/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix Description: The FPHDF5 code couldn't create a dataset then access it. Turns out that the "O_find_in_ohdr" code was protecting the object header which pulls it into the cache then unprotecting it. However, this caused the cache entry to be blown away and THEN we'd try to reread the entry (via AC_protect) but it didn't have all of the data that the find_in_ohdr function decodes for us decoded. It was also kind of unnecessary since we can just protect then call O_find_in_ohdr. Solution: Removed the AC_protect and AC_unprotect from O_find_in_ohdr. Called AC_protect before calling the O_find_in_ohdr function. Platforms tested: Linux (Fortran, C++) IRIX (parallel, Fortran) Sun (Fortran) Misc. update:
* [svn-r7495] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-09-191-30/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Removed Dead Code Description: Some of the FPHDF5 code was dead (I thought it'd be useful at one point, but was wrong). Solution: Removed Platforms tested: Linux (FPHDF5 specific. No need for h5committest) Misc. update:
* [svn-r7467] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-09-111-24/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Patch up a few places where the metadata cache could ask for a read lock instead of a write lock and other minor code cleanups. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) too minor to need h5committest Misc. update:
* [svn-r7460] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-09-101-12/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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:
* [svn-r7456] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-09-101-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: Linux (Fortran & C++) Solaris (Fortran) Irix (Parallel & Fortran) Misc. update:
* [svn-r7446] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-09-061-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup/bug fix Description: Move metadata cache calls around a bit so they protect the usage of the metadata better. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) too small to need h5committest
* [svn-r7445] Purpose:Bill Wendling2003-09-041-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: (simulated h5committest by hand since it doesn't work for me) Linux (Fortran, C++) Solaris (Fortran) AIX (Fortran, C++) SGI (Parallel, Fortran)

* [svn-r7369] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-08-151-14/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Wendling2003-08-151-4/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.) Platforms tested: AIX (Copper: Fortran & C++) Linux (Verbena: Fortran & C++) IRIX (Modi4: Parallel & Fortran) (Sol is down) Misc. update:
* [svn-r7297] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-08-081-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Changed lines like: H5E_clear(H5E_get_my_stack()); to: H5E_clear(NULL); which performs the same operation. Platforms tested: h5committested

* [svn-r6843] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-05-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Clean up warnings exposed by compiling on O2K. Also, revert some of Bill and my changes to the H5S_mpi_opt_types_g, etc. and settle them back into their original location. Platforms tested: h5committested.

* [svn-r6658] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-04-141-14/+210
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New feature Description: Track changes in the internal metadata API with clearing the metadata dirty flag without flushing object. Added ability to delete an object header in the file and restore all the space referenced by various header messages. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/C++ Linux 2.4 (burrwhite) w/FORTRAN Solaris 2.7 (arabica) w/FORTRAN IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/parallel & FORTRAN (h5committest not run due to my ongoing difficulties with C++ on burrwhite).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix/code cleanup/new feature Description: Fix h5debug to work correctly again, with all the changes over the past few months. Improved and cleaned up debugging output available in h5debug. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir)
* [svn-r6411] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-02-171-48/+628
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Clean up miscellaneous warnings which have crept into the code. Fix "_POSIX_C_SOURCE not defined" warning on FreeBSD. Adjust gcc compiler flags to be more concise for production mode. Refactor the H5O code so that there is a stronger boundary between code in the H5O package and code in the library which just calls H5O routines. Platforms tested: Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++) modi4 (parallel, fortran)} FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel and gcc 2.95.4 & gcc 3.2.2 Misc. update: Update MANIFEST if you add or remove any file.
* [svn-r6387] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-02-101-107/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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
* [svn-r6308] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-01-211-3/+117
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Currently, when the library encounters an object header message that isn't know, it fails to open that object in the file. Solution: Allow the library to skip over the unknown object header message and continue to process the remaining messages, in the hope that the skipped message isn't important later. If it is important, it will be caught at a higher level of the library. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir)

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.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Merged from 1.4 branch Description: API tracing improvements Platforms tested: Linux (--disable-hsizet didn't work before my changes and still doesn't work, but --enable-hsizet is fine). Note: This checkin includes temporary code in H5FDmpiposix.c to turn off GPFS byte range token prefetches on ASCI/Blue. Once the HDF5 API supports the necessary prerequisite functionality this temporary code can be migraged up above HDF5.

* [svn-r5842] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-08-081-397/+267
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* [svn-r5814] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-07-191-11/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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
* [svn-r5501] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-06-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code Bug Fix Description: Under certain [obscure] circumstances, an object header would get paged out of the metadata cache, and when it was accessed again and brought back into the cache, and immediately had additional metadata added to it (an attribute, usually, or perhaps adding an object to a group), and needed to be extended with a continuation message, but there was no room in any existing object header chunks for the continuation message and an existing object header message needed to be moved to the new object header chunk (I told you it was obscure :-), the object header message moved to the new chunk (not the new metadata being added) would get corrupted. *whew* :-) Solution: Actually copy the "raw" object header message information of the object header message being moved to the new chunk, instead of relying on the "native" object header message information being re-encoded when the object header is flushed. This is because when an object header is paged out of the metadata cache and subsequently brought back in, the "native" information pointer in memory is reset to NULL and only the "raw" information exists. Platforms tested: Solaris 2.7 (arabica) & FreeBSD 4.5 (sleipnir)
* [svn-r5471] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-291-17/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
* [svn-r5467] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-281-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Koziol2002-05-101-16/+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)

Mostly, they are because size_t is 32-bit and hsize_t is 64-bit on Windows and we were carelessly casting the larger values down to the smaller ones without checking for overflow. Also, some other small code cleanups,etc. Solution: Re-worked some algorithms to eliminate the casts and also added more overflow checking for assignments and function parameters which needed casts. Kent did most of the work, I just went over his changes and fit them into the the library code a bit better. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.4 (hawkwind)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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)

| | | | | | | | | | Code cleanups, mostly.. Description: Work on pacifying the SGI compiler to get the generic properties working correctly with --enable-parallel and --enable-fortran. It's not quite fixed yet, but I need to head home and these patches help... :-/ Platforms tested: IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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)
