* [svn-r28761] Description:Quincey Koziol2016-01-011-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | Clean up many mismatches between malloc/free and H5MM_malloc/H5MM_xfree in the library and tests (and use of H5free_memory and H5Dvlen_reclaim). Also make H5Ocopy use a private version of H5Lexists, which doesn't internally throw (and suppress) errors when an object (or the path to it) isn't found in the destination. Tested on: MacOSX/64 10.11.2 (amazon) w/serial & parallel (h5committest forthcoming)
* [svn-r28646] Minor normalization with revise_chunks.Dana Robinson2015-12-141-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | Also purged obsolete /*ARGSUSED*/ from the library. Tested on: Ubuntu 15.10 (Linux 4.2.0 x86_64) gcc 5.2.1 serial only (these changes have been in revise_chunks for a long time)
* [svn-r27768] Description:Quincey Koziol2015-09-141-28/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Complete revamp of package initialization/shutdown mechanism in the library. Each package now has a single init/term routine. This new way should avoid packages being re-initialized during library shutdown and is also be _much_ more proactive about giving feedback for resource leaks internal to the library. Introduces a new "module" header file for packages in the library (e.g src/H5Fmodule.h) which sets up some necessary package configuration macros for the FUNC_ENTER/LEAVE macros. (The VFL drivers have their own slightly modified version of this header, src/H5FDdrvr_module.h) Also cleaned up a bunch of resources leaks all across the library and tests, along with addressing many warnings, as I encountered them. Tested on: MacOSX/64 10.10.5 (amazon) w/serial & parallel Linux/64 3.10.x (kituo) w/serial & parallel Linux/64 2.6.x (ostrich) w/serial

Merge changes from Coverity branch back to trunk: r20684: Fix for coverity bug #1721 which was due to the fix for coverity bug #943. r20685: Use HDstrncpy. --gh r20761: Purpose: Fix valgrind issues Description: Free image_data and data as appropriate in test_image. r20762: Purpose: Fix coverity issue 600 Description: Add check for return value of H5O_close in H5Ocopy. Also cleaned up various warnings. r20763: Purpose: Fix valgrind issues with h5stat Description: Modified h5stat to free "iter" before exit, and free "hand" before exit if parse_command_line exits directly. r20764: fixed coverity issues: 69, 327, 614, 684, 685, 696, 697, 1681, 967, 826, 660, 80 r20765: Fixed coverity bug 668 Pulled x * y * z multiply out of malloc operand into a separate n_elements variable to quiet integer overflow warning. No actual integer overflow tests are performed since it's just a test program but I did add a check that n_elements is >= 1. I also changed an error condition from doing its own close and returning -1 to "goto out;" like the rest of the program. r20766: Fixed coverity bug 667 Pulled x * y * z multiply out of malloc operand into a separate n_elements variable to quiet integer overflow warning. No actual integer overflow tests are performed since it's just a test program. Tested on: Mac OSX/64 10.8.3 (amazon) w/C++ & FORTRAN (h5committest upcoming)

Allocated memory freed in line 762 in case of error. r18185: Fixed Coverity issues 357 & 358. Added check for NULL pointer before use. r18186: Fix coverity item 65. Added code to h5unjam to correctly handle failures in read() and write, and also to correctly handle writes that write less than requested. r18187: Fix coverity items 115 and 116. Added code to H5Tenum.c to correctly close opened datatypes in case of failure. r18188: Fixed Coverity issue 46. Check that dataset->shared is not null when freeing memory after error. r18190: Fix coverity item 95. Added code to H5T_create_vlen to correctly close allocated datatype in case of failure. r18191: Fixed Coverity error 59. Checked sfirst for -1 value before use in line 10533. r18192: Fix Coverity items 121 and 28 Added Asserts: 121: assert that all dimensions of count have values greater than zero. 28: assert curr_span pointer is not null before dereference. Note: still need too add checks in hyperslab APIs that fail when count values are zero, and appropriate tests. r18194: Fixed Coverity issues 61 & 62. Checked variable snpoints for value < 0 in line 218. Tested on: Mac OS X/32 10.6.2 (amazon) w/debug & production (already daily tested on coverity branch)

Description: Added a new field 'app_count' to H5I_id_info_t struct, to track the reference count on an id due to the application. the old 'count' field tracks the total. Generally any id visible to the application gets placed in app_count. Added app_ref boolean parameter to H5I_inc_ref, H5I_dec_ref, H5I_register, H5I_clear_type, and a few other functions, to specify whether the operation(s) being performed on the id(s) are due to the application (TRUE) or not (FALSE).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Refactor generic property list initialization code to put property list specific routines in property list modules, instead of scattered to the four winds. Also, introduce property list class initialization objects, to make adding new property list classes in the library easier. Fix daily test failure by using H5Pget_elink_prefix() API routine instead of looking at the "raw" generic property list information.

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

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.... :-)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Merge back changes from "compact group" work that improve the infrastructure of the library and may impact others. In this round of merging, that includes: - Move datatype allocation into single internal routine, instead of duplicated code that was spread out in a dozen or so places. - Clean up guts of object header routines (H5O_*) to allow for some of the fancieroperations that need to be performed on groups, along with some general improvements. - Added a new error code - Some minor cleanups in other code....

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r9329] James Laird2004-09-281-47/+52
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Purpose: Feature Description: Datatypes and groups now use H5FO "file object" code that was previously only used by datasets. These objects will hold a file open if the file is closed but they have not yet been closed. If these objects are unlinked then relinked, they will not be destroyed. If they are opened twice (even by two different names), both IDs will "see" changes made to the object using the other ID. When an object is opened using two different names (e.g., if a dataset was opened under one name, then mounted and opened under its new name), calling H5Iget_name() on a given hid_t will return the name used to open that hid_t, not the current name of the object (this is a feature, and a change from the previous behavior of datasets). Solution: Used H5FO code that was already in place for datasets. Broke H5D_t's, H5T_t's, and H5G_t's into a "shared" struct and a private struct. The shared structs (H5D_shared_t, etc.) hold the object's information and are used by all IDs that point to a given object in the file. The private structs are pointed to by the hid_t and contain the object's group entry information (including its name) and a pointer to the shared struct for that object. This changed the naming of structs throughout the library (e.g., datatype->size is now datatype->shared->size). I added an updated H5Tinit.c to windows.zip.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: The 'char *' type is one of the "strongly" aligned types on Crays, but a 'void *' is "weakly" aligned. So, assigning a 'void *' (pointing to a location to place a 'char *') to a 'char **' can change the pointer value during the assignment. Solution: Don't alias the 'void *' where the variable-length information ('char *' or 'hvl_t') will go. Use a temporary variable on the stack to build up the information about the VL string or sequence and then memcpy() the temporary variable directly to the location pointed to with the 'void *' Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) Cray SV1 (wind) specific to Cray problems, h5committest not necessary.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Correct problem with mis-aligned string pointers on certain architectures (i.e. on modi4) causing a core dump. The string pointers can be mis-aligned due to being part of a compound datatype and how our compound type conversion routines work. Solution: Allocate string with temporary variable and memcpy() the pointer to the new string into the type conversion buffer, instead of dereferencing the type conversion buffer directly. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) h5committest
