* [svn-r13697] Fixed error in check_unprotect_ro_dirty_err() in cache.c. ↵John Mainzer2007-04-241-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | Basic problem was a failure to clean up properly after a test. I reproduced the failure on Phoenix before fixing it. As the error was relatively straight forward, I tested fix on Phoenix only.

| | | | | | | | | | cache entries. Added test code to test the new feature. Also some minor cleanum h5committested -- passed on copper and sol. Failed on osage with a configuration error that appears unrelated to my changes. Serial test (debug mode) passes on Phoenix (Linux x86 2.6 kernel), so I went ahead with the checkin.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | handle flush callbacks which can dirty other entries, and resize and/or rename the target entry. This feature is needed by the fractal heap code. Also added associated test code. H5Commit tested. Test failed on heping, but the error appears to be a syntax error in an un-related file. Tests on copper & sol passed, along with tests on phoenix.
* [svn-r12595] Modified H5C_insert_entry() to accept the H5C__PIN_ENTRY_FLAG entryJohn Mainzer2006-08-171-0/+305
| | | | | | | | | | | flag, and pin an entry as it is inserted. The objective is to avoid some function call overhead in fheap. Also added matching test code in test/cache.c & test/cache_common.c (also testpar/t_cache.c checked in separately by accident) h5commit tested
* [svn-r12462] Committed a variety of metadata cache related changes:John Mainzer2006-07-131-0/+1459
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Added trace file support to the metadata cache. This allows capture of all metadata cache calls in trace files for purposes of optimization and debuging. 2) Added an expunge entry function. This allows an entry to be deleteded from the cache without writing it to disk even if it is dirty. 3) Added a function call to resize pinned entries. 4) Added code to deal with entries that are dirty on load. This is needed in support of a bug fix which can alter object headers on load to repair files. 5) Added progress reporting code to the "MDC API smoke check" test in cache_api.c. To enable the progress reporting, set report_progress to TRUE in mdc_api_call_smoke_check(). Tested with h5committest, and a parallel test on phoenix (dual athelon linux box).

* [svn-r12374] Purpose:John Mainzer2006-05-241-1257/+425
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Check in potential fix to unreproduceable bug in t_cache observed on Cobalt 2) Check in code supporting added pinned entry features in the metadata cache. Description: 1) Elena encountered a bug in t_cache when running on Cobalt. On investigation I found a potential race condition in t_cache that could explain her observation. 2) Quincey requested additions to the metadata cache allowing renaming of pinned entryies, and marking of pinned or protected entries as dirty. Solution: 1) Modified t_cache.c to prevent the potential race condition. Elena was unable to reproduce the bug on Cobalt, so we don't know if my fix actually addressed the problem. 2) Added code supporting the requested functions. The changes were relatively trivial, but required substantial new test code. Platforms tested: h5committest, serial test on heping, parallel test on phoenix. Misc. update:
* [svn-r12321] Purpose:John Mainzer2006-05-021-197/+201
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bug fix Description: Fix two test bugs: 1) Unitialized variable bug in test of H5C_get_entry_status() (in test/cache.c) 2) Incorrect initialization of constant in t_cache when running with MPE. (in testpar/t_cache.c) Solution: 1) Don't test uninitialize variable. 2) Correct initialzation of constant in MPE case. Platforms tested: Tested on Heping and Copper. Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add pinned entry capability to cache. Description: For frequently accessed cache entries, the protect/unprotect overhead is sometimes a bottleneck. Solution: Allow entries to be pinned in the cache. Pinned entries can't be evicted, but can be flushed or modified.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Repair synchronization bug in the metadata cache in PHDF5 Also repair numerous other bugs that surfaced in testing the bug fix. Description: While operations modifying metadata must be collective, we allow independant reads. This allows metadata caches on different processes to adjust to different sizes, and to place the entries on their dirty lists in different orders. Since only process 0 actually writes metadata to disk (all other processes thought they did, but the writes were discarded on the theory that they had to be collective), this made it possible for another process to modify metadata, flush it, and then read it back in in its original form (pre-modification) form. The possibilities for file corruption should be obvious. Solution: Make the policy that only process 0 can write to file explicit, and visible to the metadata caches. Thus only process 0 may flush dirty entries -- all other caches must retain dirty entries until they are informed by process 0 that the entries are clean. Synchronization is handled by counting the bytes of dirty cache entries created, and then synching up between the caches whenever the sum exceeds an (eventually user specified) limit. Dirty metadata creation is consistent across all processes because all operations modifying metadata must be collective. This change uncovered may bugs which are repaired in this checkin. It also required modification of H5HL and H5O to allocate file space on insertion rather than on flush from cache. Platforms tested: H5committest, heping(parallel & serial) Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Interim checkin of code changes moving management of the is_dirty flag into the cache code. Description: Prior to this checkin, management of the is_dirty flag was handled above the level of the metadata cache. This can no longer be allowed, as it introduces a race condition in the proposed fix for a cache coherency bug in PHDF5. Solution: Move management fo the is_dirty flag to the cache code proper. Entries are now marked as dirty via a flag on the unprotect call. Platforms tested: h5committested Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove C99 types from new metadata cache related API calls (take 2 -- missed one in the previous check in) Description: Windows (and perhaps others) don't like int32_t and int64_t. While we have dealt with the issue internally, it is more of a problem in API calls. Solution: Convert int32_t to int and int64_t to long int in the new metadata cache related API calls.

While we have dealt with the issue internally, it is more of a problem in API calls. Solution: Convert int32_t to int and int64_t to long int in the H5AC_cache_config_t structure used by the new metadata cache related API calls.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add API calls allowing user control of the metadata cache. Description: Prior to this update, the metadata cache was not configurable from outside the library. Solution: Add API calls allowing the user to configure the metadata cache either at file open time, or for any open file. Also added calls permitting the user to monitor cache size and hit rate. These latter facilities are needed for "manual" cache size control Platforms tested: h5committested Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Reduce the run time of the cache tests. Description: Some of the cache tests run for quite a while, which has been causing problems with our daily build and test. In my last modification to cache.c, I added code to skip these stress tests unless we were building in production mode. Since things go faster in production mode, the extra tests are not a major problem here. However, this means that the stress tests are only run once or twice a week. Solution: To try to deal with this, I modified the four longest tests to throttle depending on whether NDEBUG is defined. When NDEBUG is not defined, runtime for the cache tests should be about 1/5th its regular run time. We will see if this is enough of a reduction to avoid problems. There is some doubt in my mind as to just how much good the throttled tests do, but they should be better than nothing. As mentioned before, the correct solution is to build some proper, random test code. Platforms tested: h5committested production and debug builds on heping. Misc. update:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1) Provide facilities in cache to allow us to avoid a potential cache consistency bug in the parallel case. 2) Clean up a off by one sanity checking bug. 3) Turn off execution of long running tests in debug mode. Description: 1) In the parallel case, all writes to metadata must be collective, but reads may not be. In pricipal, this allows us to different contents in different caches. This isn't a problem as long as the correct data is always on disk, but unless we can force certain writes immediately, that need not be the case. 2) & 3) should need no further explanation. Solution: 1) Add code allowing us to mark cache entries, and then force these entries to be flushed at a later time. Note that to actually avoid the bug, we will have to modify existing code to use these new features. 2) & 3) should need no further explanation. Platforms tested: heping (serial debug and production) committest (copper, sol, and heping). test failed on heping in the c++ portion of the build, but at Quincey's siggestion, I am proceeding with the checkin.

Solution: As a short term "fix", I have commented out all but one of the long running test functions. Of course that means that we aren't running these tests at present. I'm not sure that this is a good idea. Platforms tested: Serial on Heping. Misc. update:

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

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify the cache code (H5C) to support automatic cache resizing to adapt to the work load at run time. Description: Different applications require different sized caches to maintain an acceptable hit rate. This set of changes attempts to provide the ability to adjust to circumstances automatically. Solution: Added highly configurable code to allow the user to either set a fixed cache size, or allow the cache to grow and shrink according to conditions. If enabled, cache size increases are triggered when the hit rate drops below a user specified threshold in a user specified interval. Cache size reductions (if enabled) are triggered when either the hit rate exceeds some user specified threshold over a user specified interval, when the cache contains "enough" entries that haven't been accessed for a user specified interval, or some mix of the above. See the header comments on the H5C_auto_size_ctl_t structure in H5Cprivate.h for further details. At present, the cache resize configuration options are not accessible via the user API. Must add this. Platforms tested: h5committested, heping (serial), and copper (parallel) Misc. update:

* [svn-r8791] Purpose: Rewrote metadata cache (H5AC.c, etc.) to improve ↵John Mainzer2004-07-021-0/+4067
performance. Description: Replaced the old metadata cache with a cache with a modified LRU replacement policy. This should improve the hit rate. Solution: Since we want to flush cache entries in increasing address order, I used the threaded binary B-tree code to store the cache entries. There is a fair bit of overhead here, so we may want to consider other options. While the code is designed to allow the support of other replacement algorithms, at present, only a modified version of LRU is supported. The modified LRU algorithm requires that a user selectable portion of the cache entries be clean. The clean entries are evicted first when writes are not permitted. If the pool of clean entries is used up, the cache grows beyond its user specified maximum size. The cache can also exceed its maximum size if the combined size of the protected (or locked) entries exceeds the maximum size of the cache.
