* [svn-r6395] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-02-121-8/+138
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup. Description: Break up the ~9350 line H5T.c module into smaller pieces, which contain code for a particular feature or support for a datatype class. This should make the "main" H5T code (still in H5T.c) easier to support, as well as removing some of the "minor" routines from the user applications which don't use them (my rough estimates show about 4% reduction (~30K on a FreeBSD machine) in optimized, staticly-linked binaries for very simple programs) Platforms tested: Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++) modi4 (parallel, fortran)} FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) Misc. update: Update MANIFEST
* [svn-r6387] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-02-101-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix Description: Metadata cache in parallel I/O can cause hangs in applications which perform independent I/O on chunked datasets, because the metadata cache can attempt to flush out dirty metadata from only a single process, instead of collectively from all processes. Solution: Pass a dataset transfer property list down from every API function which could possibly trigger metadata I/O. Then, split the metadata cache into two sets of entries to allow dirty metadata to be set aside when a hash table collision occurs during independent I/O.

Description: Performance Improvements: - Cached file offset & length sizes in shared file struct, to avoid constantly looking them up in the FCPL. - Generic property improvements: - Added "revision" number to generic property classes to speed up comparisons. - Changed method of storing properties from using a hash-table to the TBBT routines in the library. - Share the propery names between classes and the lists derived from them. - Removed redundant 'def_value' buffer from each property. - Switching code to use a "copy on write" strategy for properties in each list, where the properties in each list are shared with the properties in the class, until a property's value is changed in a list. - Fixed error in layout code which was allocating too many buffers. - Redefined public macros of the form (H5open()/H5check, <variable>) internally to only be (<variable>), avoiding innumerable useless calls to H5open() and H5check_version(). - Reuse already zeroed buffers in H5F_contig_fill instead of constantly re-zeroing them. - Don't write fill values if writing entire dataset. - Use gettimeofday() system call instead of time() system when checking the modification time of a dataset. - Added reference counted string API and use it for tracking the names of objects opening in a file (for the ID->name code). - Removed redundant H5P_get() calls in B-tree routines. - Redefine H5T datatype macros internally to the library, to avoid calling H5check redundantly. - Keep dataspace information for dataset locally instead of reading from disk each time. Added new module to track open objects in a file, to allow this (which will be useful eventually for some FPH5 metadata caching issues). - Remove H5AC_find macro which was inlining metadata cache lookups, and call function instead. - Remove redundant memset() calls from H5G_namei() routine. - Remove redundant checking of object type when locating objects in metadata cache and rely on the address only. - Create default dataset object to use when default dataset creation property list is used to create datasets, bypassing querying for all the property list values. - Use default I/O vector size when performing raw data with the default dataset transfer property list, instead of querying for I/O vector size. - Remove H5P_DEFAULT internally to the library, replacing it with more specific default property list based on the type of property list needed. - Remove redundant memset() calls in object header message (H5O*) routines. - Remove redunant memset() calls in data I/O routines. - Split free-list allocation routines into malloc() and calloc()- like routines, instead of one combined routine. - Remove lots of indirection in H5O*() routines. - Simplify metadata cache entry comparison routine (used when flushing entire cache out). - Only enable metadata cache statistics when H5AC_DEBUG is turned on, instead of always tracking them. - Simplify address comparison macro (H5F_addr_eq). - Remove redundant metadata cache entry protections during dataset creation by protecting the object header once and making all the modifications necessary for the dataset creation before unprotecting it. - Reduce # of "number of element in extent" computations performed by computing and storing the value during dataspace creation. - Simplify checking for group location's file information, when file has not been involving in file-mounting operations. - Use binary encoding for modification time, instead of ASCII. - Hoist H5HL_peek calls (to get information in a local heap) out of loops in many group routine. - Use static variable for iterators of selections, instead of dynamically allocation them each time. - Lookup & insert new entries in one step, avoiding traversing group's B-tree twice. - Fixed memory leak in H5Gget_objname_idx() routine (tangential to performance improvements, but fixed along the way). - Use free-list for reference counted strings. - Don't bother copying object names into cached group entries, since they are re-created when an object is opened. The benchmark I used to measure these results created several thousand small (2K) datasets in a file and wrote out the data for them. This is Elena's "regular.c" benchmark. These changes resulted in approximately ~4.3x speedup of the development branch when compared to the previous code in the development branch and ~1.4x speedup compared to the release branch. Additionally, these changes reduce the total memory used (code and data) by the development branch by ~800KB, bringing the development branch back into the same ballpark as the release branch. I'll send out a more detailed description of the benchmark results as a followup note. New internal API routines: Added "reference counted strings" API for tracking strings that get used by multiple owners without duplicating the strings. Added "ternary search tree" API for text->object mappings.

* [svn-r5871] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-08-121-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Combined H5P_isa_class and H5I_object functionality into a new internal H5P API function: H5P_object_verify, which checks that a property list is the appropriate class and then returns the property list object associated with the property list ID. This reduces the source code by about 200 LOC and trims the library binary some more. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir)
* [svn-r5867] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-08-091-4/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Koziol2002-08-081-44/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r5840] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-07-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Code cleanup Description: Created a new H5I function which combined the some of the functionality of H5I_get_type and H5I_object: H5I_object_verify. Using this new function in the library trims another ~200 lines of code off the library and makes the resulting binaries smaller and faster also. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir)

* [svn-r5764] Raymond Lu2002-07-031-4/+28

* [svn-r5471] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-05-291-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Koziol2002-05-281-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [svn-r4772] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2002-01-041-3/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug Fix. Description: Equation to compute size of attribute in memory was incorrectly using the disk's datatype (and dataspace, but that turns out not to have been the actual issue) and when a variable length datatype was used for the attribute, the wrong size is being computed. Also, the variable-length datatype conversions aren't handling the default dataset transfer property list (H5P_DEFAULT) correctly. Solution: Changed attribute code to compute the attribute size in memory correctly by using the memory datatype & dataspace. Changed the variable-length datatype conversion code to use the default dataset transfer property list when H5P_DEFAULT is passed as the property list ID. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.5 (sleipnir)
* [svn-r4643] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-11-271-9/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 Koziol2001-11-201-6/+15

* [svn-r4355] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-08-141-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r4324] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-08-101-9/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 (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-r3252] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-01-091-4/+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)
* [svn-r3228] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2001-01-031-38/+56
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fixes Description: Fix two bugs: - Datasets with vlen datatype which were created but not written to were not being read back in correctly from the file. - If an existing space conversion path was found for a conversion, it was possible that the optimized read/write routines would be used inappropriately. Solution: Patched vlen datatype conversion code to correctly handle zero-length sequences. Added a check to the space conversion code to make certain that the optimized conversion routines are still appropriate when an existing path is found. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.2 (hawkwind)
* [svn-r2843] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2000-11-091-32/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | New Feature Description: Added array datatype to library. See documentation at: http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/planning/DP/ArrayType.html for complete details on the impact to the library. Solution: Changes to the base library include removing the ability of compound datatype fields to be an array (they can use an array type for the field, to duplicate the functionality) and adding in the new array datatype everywhere appropriate. (I hope :-) Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.1.1 (hawkwind)

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