| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bring revisions from Coverity fixing branch to trunk: r18184: Fixed Coverity issue 373. 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)

| | | | | | | | | | as on disk (see bug #1585). I changed it to undefined and let the caller functions decide the location of the datatype. For H5Tdecode, it should mark the datatype as in memory. For other callers like H5Dopen or H5Aopen, they should makr it as on disk. Tested it on jam, smirom, linew.
* [svn-r15656] Purpose: fix bug 1286Neil Fortner2008-09-181-49/+154
| | | | | | Description: Added configure test to see if pointer alignment restrictions are enforced (as in dereferencing an unaligned pointer causes an error). Added code in H5Tvlen.c to avoid dereferencing unaligned pointers, conditionally compiled based on the configure test. Added test case in dtypes.c which would previously cause such machines to fail.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | reference count > 1. 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). Test added for this case. Tested: kagiso, smirom, linew (h5committest)

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

Bug fix on the H5T_vlen_set_loc to allow for changing the file on a variable-length datatype on disk. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) Linux 2.4 Can't h5committest right now, due to missing cache files.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.... :-)

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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".

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

* [svn-r8731] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2004-06-231-6/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* [svn-r7917] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-12-061-19/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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-r7842] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-11-131-91/+311
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Variable length strings and sequences with NULL pointers were not handled by library, causing problems access the data. This also affected fill values for variable-length datatypes. Solution: Address the issues in the library by detecting NULL sequences/strings and avoid trying to convert them. Patched up dumper to display NULL sequences/strings. Platforms tested: FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) h5committest

* [svn-r7595] Purpose:Quincey Koziol2003-10-101-9/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 and code cleanup Description: Correct error in H5T_detect_class that was causing nested compound datatypes with to not detect the datatype class of fields correctly, which caused errors with fill-values, variable-length datatypes and chunks later on. Return the rank of the array datatype from H5Tget_array_dims(), like H5Sget_dims(). Lots of cleanups to datatype code, to make the handling of arrays, compound types, variable-length strings and sequences and enumerated types more consistent and robust.

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

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

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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. Platforms tested: Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++) modi4 (parallel, fortran)} Other platforms/configurations tested? FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel Solaris 2.6 (baldric) serial
