* [svn-r9559] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-11-221-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization Description: Switch a few more malloc/free pairs over to using internal free list code, to avoid abusing system memory allocator as badly. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel Solaris 2.7 (arabica) Too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r9556] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-11-221-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup & optimization Description: Improve ADF/CGNS benchmark by reducing the number of internal attribute copies made during creations, opens and writes. Added new H5O_iterate() routine for iterating through messages of a certain type in the object header (attributes are the only message currently that can have multiple instances in the object header). Cross-pollinated various minor code cleanups to reduce diffs between branches. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel Solaris 2.7 (arabica) Too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r9552] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-11-191-8/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization Description: Avoid making as many copies of attribute information. Also, be smarter about which properties we've seen before when copying and closing property lists. Fix memory leak of attribute data structures.

* [svn-r9537] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-11-171-17/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup & optimizations Description: Clean up some of the code in attributes to avoid allocating memory and performing type conversions when the conversion is a noop. Avoid memory allocations of attribute data structures by switching to use library's free list memory allocator routines. Avoid memory allocations of object header continuation data structures by switching to use library's free list memory allocator routines. Rearrange threaded, balanced binary tree macros slightly to avoid some overhead. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel Solaris 2.7 (arabica) Too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r9433] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-10-191-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Fix core dump when flushing a file with a newly created attribute which hasn't had a value written to it still open. Solution: Write the attribute fill value when appropriate. Platforms tested: FreeBSd 4.10 (sleipnir) Linux 2.4 (verbena) Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
* [svn-r8731] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-06-231-13/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/gcc34 h5committest
* [svn-r8673] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-06-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization Description: Revised dataspace selections to use a more "object oriented" mechanism to set the function pointers for each selection and selection iterator. This reduces the amount and number of times that dataspace selection info has to be copied. Additionally, change hyperslab selection information to be dynamically allocated instead of an inline struct.

* [svn-r8590] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-05-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code optimization & bug fix Description: When dimension information is being stored in the storage layout message on disk, it is stored as 32-bit quantities, possibly truncating the dimension information, if a dimension is greater than 32-bits in size. Solution: Fix the storage layout message problem by revising file format to not store dimension information, since it is already available in the dataspace. Also revise the storage layout data structures to be more compartmentalized for the information for contiguous, chunked and compact storage.

* [svn-r8376] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-04-171-40/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Lu2004-04-081-28/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | 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-r7950] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-12-131-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Attributes which were created with scalar dataspaces were reporting their dataspace as a simple dataspace when queried later. Solution: Fix the dataspace handling code when reading in the attribute message from the file to set the extent type correctly. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) too minor to require h5committest
* [svn-r7538] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-10-051-42/+254
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r6837] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-05-081-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup. Description: Move many package or internal function prototypes and macro definitions into tighter scope according to their current use. Added more comments where appropriate. Eliminate ancient, unused functions. Added a couple "accessor" functions to get parts of data structures which were moved out of scope. Platforms tested: h5committested
* [svn-r6659] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-04-141-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New feature, sorta Description: Track changes to various internal APIs 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).
* [svn-r6411] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-02-171-18/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Koziol2003-02-101-9/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r6266] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-01-101-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup/new feature. Description: Split FUNC_LEAVE into API and non-API specific versions. This allows a solution to compiling this branch with C++, as well as reducing the size of the binaries produced.

* [svn-r6252] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-01-091-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [svn-r5867] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-08-091-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Changed the last HRETURN* statements in the FUNC_ENTER macros into HGOTO* macros, which reduces the size of the library binary in certain configurations by another 10% Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) serial & parallel, IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) serial & parallel
* [svn-r5842] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-08-081-26/+39
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r5839] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-07-311-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Move operations on each type of selection into the source code file for each selection type (all->H5Sall.c, hyperslab->H5Shyper.c, etc.) Remove central H5S_select_<foo> operations, instead calling the operations through function pointers in each selection (a much more object-oriented approach). Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir)
* [svn-r5471] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-291-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r4643] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-11-271-26/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Windows is generating hundreds of warnings from some of the practices in the library. 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)
* [svn-r4620] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-11-201-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Get rid of IDs from internal function calls and some small cleanups from the old-stype => generic property list conversion. 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)
* [svn-r3781] Purpose:Bill Wendling2001-04-051-8/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r3677] Purpose:Albert Cheng2001-03-201-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix (sort of) Description: The RCSID string in H5public.h was causing the C++ code problem as it was included multiple times and C++ did not like multiple definitions of the same static variable. Solution: Since we don't really make use of the RCSID strings as we have not installed it in all source files, we decided to remove it. Platforms tested: eirene (linux), modi4 (IRIX64-64) both serial and parallel modes.
* [svn-r2652] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2000-10-101-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintainance & performance enhancements Description: Re-arranged header files to protect private symbols better. Changed optimized regular hyperslab I/O to compute the offsets more efficiently from previous method of using matrix operations. Added sequential I/O operations at a more abstract level (at the same level as H5F_arr_read/write), to support the optimized hyperslab I/O. Platforms tested: Solaris 2.6 (baldric) & FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)

I've ported and tested the sec2, family, and core drivers and only ported the mpio driver (Albert will test it). So if you need MPIO I would recommend sticking with the previous version for a while. You will get a few compile warnings about split and stdio drivers not being implemented and possibly tracing information not inserted in some of the drivers. You can safely ignore them but I plan to fix them. I'm still working on the split driver because I just realized that it needs a part of the VFL that isn't written yet. Documentation is being updated also because there were some minor changes (mostly just name changes). It should be available on my web site later this week. ./MANIFEST ./src/Makefile.in ./src/hdf5.h ./src/H5Flow.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fstdio.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fsec2.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fsplit.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fmpio.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Ffamily.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5Fcore.c [REMOVED] ./src/H5MFpublic.h [REMOVED] ./src/H5FD.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDcore.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDcore.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDfamily.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDfamily.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDmpio.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDmpio.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDprivate.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDpublic.h [NEW] ./src/H5FDsec2.c [NEW] ./src/H5FDsec2.h [NEW] Removed/added files for virtual file layer. ./bin/trace ./src/H5.c Removed unused public datatypes and added new VFL public datatypes.

Changed H5D_transfer_t to H5FD_mpio_xfer_t since the COLLECTIVE vs. INDEPENDENT transfer mode is specific to the MPIO file driver. Moved MPIO-specific stuff into the MPIO driver. ./src/H5B.c ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h The H5F_mpio_* private functions were renamed and placed in the H5FDmpio driver except those which appeared in H5Smpio.c. ./src/H5E.c ./src/H5Epublic.h Added major error number H5E_VFL for virtual file layer related errors. ./src/H5F.c ./src/H5Fprivate.h Changed the logic that controls whether the boot block is written. Instead of assuming that the first call to write the boot block is only to allocate space, I've added a function argument which makes this explicit. Changed the way files are compared so that a driver-defined comparison function can be called. Files which belong to different drivers are always considered different. Removed H5F_driver_t since file drivers are now identified by object ID instead of a special non-user-extendible datatype. Removed all the hard-coded low-level file properties which have been replaced by the various file drivers. ./src/H5I.c ./src/H5Iprivate.h Added the H5I_inc_ref() which was removed a few months ago since we finally have a use for it. ./src/H5Ipublic.h Added the H5I_VFL object ID type to identify file drivers in the virtual file layer. ./src/H5MF.c ./src/H5MFprivate.h Moved all the allocation/deallocation code into the virtual file layer which allows file drivers to override much of it. ./src/H5P.c ./src/H5Ppublic.h Moved file driver-specific code into the various file driver files. The H5Pcopy() and H5Pclose() functions make calls into the virtual file driver to manage the memory for driver-specific file access and data transfer properties. ./src/H5private.h ./src/H5public.h The `haddr_t' type is now public. ./test/tfile.c Added a few more comments.

Thanks to Quincey, the comment no longer applied. ./src/H5T.c Relaxed the H5Tpack() a little so it would pack compound data structures that had non-transient atomic members. ./tools/h5ls.c Added a `-g' (or `--group') flag that causes information to be printed about the specified group instead of the group's contents. (sort of like Unix's `ls -d'). The `-g' can be used in combination with `-r' to print information about the group and its contents.

It's a one line change. Changed the way the library is closed so we have more control over the order the interfaces are shut down. Instead of registering an atexit() function for every interface in some haphazard order we just register one: H5_term_library() which then calls the H5*_term_interface() functions in a well-defined order. If the library is closed and then reopened repeatedly by calling H5close() and H5open() in a loop we only add one copy of the library termination functions with atexit(). Termination is a two-step process in order to help detect programming errors that would cause an infinite loop caused by the termination of one interface waking up some other previously terminated interface. The first step terminates the interface and *marks it as unusable*. After all interfaces are terminated then we mark them all as usable again. The FUNC_ENTER() macro has been modified to return failure or to dump core (depending on whether NDEBUG is defined) if we try to call an interface while it's shutting down. ./src/H5.c The H5dont_atexit() function returns failure if it's called more than once or if it's called too late. However, the error stack is not automatically printed on failure because the library might not be initialized yet ./test/chunk.c ./test/flush1.c ./test/flush2.c ./test/iopipe.c ./test/overhead.c ./test/ragged.c Changed the extra cast for Win32 so we do floating point division again -- it was just confusion about precedence and associativity of casting and the C coercion rules. Removed extra carriage returns inserted by broken operating system. ./src/H5Ffamily.c Fixed an bug where H5F_fam_write() lowered the EOF marker for one of the family members causing H5F_fam_read() to read zeros. ./test/h5test.h [NEW] ./test/h5test.c [NEW] ./test/Makefile.in ./test/bittests.c ./test/cmpd_dset.c ./test/dsets.c ./test/dtypes.c ./test/extend.c ./test/external.c Support library for test files. This isn't done yet but Katie's contractions are ~10 minutes apart so I figured I better back this stuff up just in case I'm not here next week... Eventually all test files will understand HDF5_DRIVER to name the low level file driver and parameters so we can easily test various drivers. They will also understand HDF5_PREFIX to prepend to the beginning of file names which is necessary for testing ROMIO with various drivers. Also, the cleanup function will know how to use the file name prefix and will understand different file driver naming schemes like file families. I'm not sure they'll understand the `gsf:' type prefixes yet. Note, the external test is completely commented out because I'm in the middle of modifying it. It will still compile and run but it doesn't test anything at the moment.

The `long long' names will be changed shortly to make them portable to Win32. Changed H5T_init() to H5T_native_open() and added an H5T_native_close() to open and close the predefined native data types. Increased the initial size of the type conversion table from 64 to 128 entries. Reordered the 90 new integer conversion functions so the names that are printed favor `int' over `short' or `long' when two of them are the same. ./test/dtypes.c Added hardware and software integer conversion tests for the 56 functions I added recently but not the additional 36 checked in this time. That will come next. Call H5close() after each test so type conversion statistics are easier to follow. Try this: $ HDF5_DEBUG=t ./dtypes Added more debugging output for when things go wrong. ./src/H5private.h Removed trailing carriage-returns inserted by broken operating system ;-)

Otherwise some little endian machines complain (DEC Alpha) during encoding/decoding of file meta data. I chose to add alignment to the file rather than rewriting the ENCODE/DECODE macros for the little endian case. Completely rewrote the section on attribute messages. More alignment stuff will follow. ./src/H5detect.c Fixed a typo `nd'->`dn' ./test/dtypes.c Commented out conversion tests to/from `long double' on machines where it's the same size as `double' to get rid of compiler warnings. ./doc/html/Big.html Fixed a couple typos.

The `x' was removed from the name to remind us of that: H5MM_xmalloc() -> H5MM_malloc(), etc. H5MM_calloc() takes one argument like H5MM_malloc() instead of two like calloc() because we almost always called it with `1' for one of the arguments anyway. The only difference between the two functions is that H5MM_calloc() returns memory which is initialized to zero. ./src/H5Gent.c ./src/H5Gprivate.h Removed H5G_ent_calloc() since it wasn't used. ./src/H5Fistore.c Fixed a bug found by Albert. Thanks, Albert! This fix combined with the changes to memory allocation prevent the library from failing an assertion if the application uses an unreasonable size for chunks (like Alberts 10000x10000x4). ./src/H5MF.c ./src/H5MFprivate.h Changed H5MF_free() to H5MF_xfree() since calling it with an undefined address is allowed.

This file describes how this all works. ./configure.in Added the `--enable-tracing' switch. If you use it then the library will include code to print API function names, argument names and values, and function return values. However, you must then turn on the tracing by setting the HDF5_TRACE environment variable to a file descriptor number. The default is `--disable-tracing' since enabling it causes a slight increase in library size and a slowdown resulting from an extra function call for each API function call (I couldn't even measure the slowdown :-) ./bin/trace NEW A perl script that synchronizes the H5TRACE() macro calls in the *.c files with the function return type and formal argument names and types. If you use GNU make and gcc then this will be done automatically, otherwise just invoke this script with the names of one or more .c files. You could do it by hand to, but encoding argument types is a little tricky at first. ./config/commence.in Added the $(TRACE) macro, which defaults to the no-op. Added -D_POSIX_SOURCE to the compiler command line. ./src/Makefile.in Override the default for $(TRACE). ./config/depend.in Automatically calls $(TRACE) to synchronize the H5TRACE() macros in any source file that changed. As with makefile dependencies, one way to force synchronization of all files is to remove the `.depend' file. ./MANIFEST Added new files. ./src/H5Eprivate.h Modified HRETURN_ERROR() and HRETURN() for tracing. ./src/H5.c ./src/H5private.h This is where the real tracing work really happens, in H5_trace(). ./src/H5A.c ./src/H5D.c ./src/H5G.c ./src/H5P.c ./src/H5S.c ./src/H5Z.c Added H5TRACE() calls to all API functions. You don't really need these changes if you don't want to merge your stuff because they can be generated automatically by going to the hdf5/src directory and saying ../bin/trace *.c ./src/H5T.c Added H5TRACE() calls. Other stuff below. ./src/H5E.c ./src/H5Epublic.h Added H5TRACE() calls. Created a type H5E_auto_t for the `func' argument of H5Eset_auto() and H5Eget_auto() to make those arguments easier to parse for tracing. It should also make it clearer for users that don't know how to read complicated ANSI data types. ./src/H5F.c Added H5TRACE() calls. Changed a couple `uintn' argument types in API functions to `unsigned int' since `uintn' part of the API. Changed a few "can't" and "cant" error messages to "unable to". ./src/H5Ipublic.h Removed H5_DIRECTORY from the H5I_group_t enum. It wasn't used anywhere. ./src/H5Tconv.c Removed an unused label. ./src/H5Fistore.c ./src/H5Oattr.c ./src/H5Odtype.c ./src/H5T.c ./test/dsets.c ./test/dtypes.c Fixed a warning about a variable possibly used before it's initialized. Added __unused__ to turn off some unused argument warnings that pop up when debugging is turned off and optimizations are turned on.

Fixed bugs where the API functions didn't check the return values of their internal counterparts and thus the automatic error reporting didn't work. Fixed some places where the error stack wasn't cleared after a function returned failure. Data types returned by H5Aget_type() are always read-only. If the `attr_num' argument of H5Aiterate() is null then it acts like H5Giterate() instead of failing -- it begins processing attributes with the first one. ./src/H5D.c We check for allocation overruns when scalar datasets are stored in external files. ./src/H5O.c H5O_modify() will fail if the message is >=16kB. ./src/H5Oattr.c Split some long lines ./src/H5T.c ./src/H5Tprivate.h Added H5T_entof() to support attributes on named types. ./src/h5ls.c Prints the names of attributes and their sizes. ./test/cmpd_dset.c ./test/dsets.c ./test/dtypes.c ./test/extend.c ./test/external.c ./test/gheap.c ./test/istore.c ./test/links.c ./test/shtype.c If the environment variable HDF5_NOCLEANUP is defined then the temporary files are not removed.

The old global heap method of message sharing is also supported although nothing actually uses it. ./src/H5Oattr.c ./src/H5Ocomp.c ./src/H5Ocont.c ./src/H5Odtype.c ./src/H5Oefl.c ./src/H5Olayout.c ./src/H5Oname.c ./src/H5Osdspace.c ./src/H5Oshare.c ./src/H5Ostab.c Changed the data type for the shared message info struct to H5O_shared_t and added an extra initializer to the class methods struct for the set_share method. ./src/H5Odtype.c Added the ability to share data type messages by pointing to other object headers. ./src/H5T.c ./src/H5Tpkg.h ./src/H5Tprivate.h ./src/H5Tpublic.h Added named data types and changed the functionality of some API functions as follows: * The term `read-only' means that a type handle cannot be modified with functions like H5Tset_*() or H5Tinsert(). * The term `immutable' means the same as `read-only' with the added restriction that H5Tclose() cannot be called for the type. A transient type is made immutable by calling H5Tlock(). * Handles to named types are always read-only. * Handles to predefined types are immutable. * A transient type can be converted to a named type by calling H5Tcommit(). This function will fail if the type is already named or is immutable. * The API function H5Tcommitted() returns an indication of whether a data type has been commited (or is named). If H5Tcommitted() returns TRUE for a data type obtained by calling H5Dget_type() on a dataset, then the dataset is using a shared data type. * H5Topen() returns a handle to a named type. * H5Tcopy() always returns a handle to a modifiable transient type even when invoked on a named type. Also, when invoked on a dataset it returns a modifiable transient type which is a copy of the dataset's data type. * Using a named data type in the call to H5Dcreate() causes the dataset object header to point to the named data type, but using a transient type causes the type to be copied into the dataset's object header. * The data type returned from H5Dget_type() is a named data type or a read-only transient data type depending on whether the dataset points to a named data type. The old behavior, to return a modifiable transient type, is accomplished by overloading H5Tcopy() to operate on datasets (see above). * H5Tshare(), H5Tunshare(), and H5Tis_shared() have been removed from the API. The following features were *not* implemented because they need more discussion: * A named data type can be opened by applying H5Topen() to a dataset in which case the data type is the data type of the dataset (or the data type to which the dataset points if the dataset has a shared data type). * A named data type can have attributes like groups or datasets. * The members of a compound data type can point to named data types. ./src/h5ls.c Reports `Data type' for named data type objects in the file.
