Array datatype
+
A family of HDF5 datatypes whose elements are arrays of a fixed rank (≤ + 32) and fixed finite extent. All array elements must be of the same HDF5 + datatype.
+
+ +
+
Array variable
+

A variable that can store (logically) dense, rectilinear, multidimensional + arrays of elements of a given HDF5 datatype.

+

The combination of array rank (dimensionality) and extent is called an + array variable's shape. This includes the degenerate array shapes of a + singleton (scalar) and the empty array (null).

+

The array element datatype is sometimes referred to as the array + variable's type, which is not entirely accurate because the array variable's + type is 'array of element type' rather than 'element type'.

+

In HDF5, there are two kinds of array variables, attributes and datasets, + and the distinction is functional (i.e., how they can be used) rather than + conceptual. Attributes are commonly used for descriptive "light-weight" + HDF5 object metadata while datasets are HDF5 objects used to store + "heavy-weight" problem-sized data.

+
+
+ +
+
Attribute
+

A named array variable that is associated with an HDF5 object, its + owner or attributee, and used to represent application domain-specific + metadata of the object. Intuitively, the set of an object's attributes can + be thought of as its key-value pair collection. Attribute names (keys) can + be arbitrary Unicode strings, but must be unique per object, i.e., an + object can have at most one attribute with a given name.

+

A scalar attribute is an attribute backed by a singleton array + variable. A null attribute is attribute backed by an empty array + variable.

+
+
+ +\section GLS_B B + +
+
Bitfield datatype
+
A family of HDF5 datatypes whose elements are fixed-width bit fields.
+
+ +\section GLS_C C + +
+
Chunked layout
+
+

A dataset storage layout where the dataset elements are partitioned into + fixed-size multidimensional chunks or tiles. Chunked layout is mandatory + for datasets with one or more dimensions of indefinite (infinite) extent + or where compression or other filters are applied to the dataset elements.

+

Chunked layout may improve I/O performance for certain access patterns.

+
+
+ +
+
Committed datatype
+
An immutable kind of HDF5 object that is used to store an HDF5 datatype + definition, which can be referenced by multiple array variables. When linked + to an HDF5 group, a committed datatype can be located by an HDF5 path name, + and is sometimes called a named datatype.
+
+ +
+
Compact layout
+
+
+ +
+
Compound datatype
+
+

A family of HDF5 datatypes whose elements are records with named fields + of other HDF5 datatypes. Currently, on ASCII field names are supported.

+

Similar to a struct in C or a COMMON block in + Fortran.

+
+
+ +
+
Contiguous layout
+
A dataset storage layout where the dataset elements are physically stored + in an HDF5 file as a contiguous block of bytes.
+
+ +\section GLS_D D + +
+
Dataset
+
+

A kind of HDF5 object, a linked array variable. which can be located in + an HDF5 file through a path name. Datasets are commonly used to store + "heavy-weight" problem-sized data.

+

The HDF5 library offers a lot of features aimed at optimized dataset + access and storage, including compression and partial I/O.

+
+
+ +
+
Dataspace
+
The shape of an array variable. With the exception of degenerate cases + (empty set, singleton), this is a rectilinear lattice or grid of a certain + rank (dimensionality) and extent.
+
+ +
+
Datatype
+
+

An HDF5 datatype consists of an abstract data type (a set of elements) + and a bit-level representation of these elements in storage such as an HDF5 + file or memory.

+

The HDF5 library comes with a large set of predefined datatypes and + offers mechanisms for creating user-defined datatypes.

+

The ten major families or classes of HDF5 datatypes are:

+
    +
  • Integer datatypes
    • +
  • Floating-point number datatypes
    • +
  • String datatypes
    • +
  • Bitfield datatypes
    • +
  • Opaque datatypes
    • +
  • Compound datatypes
    • +
  • Reference datatypes
    • +
  • Enumerated datatypes
    • +
  • Variable-length sequence datatypes
    • +
  • Array datatypes
    • +
+
+
+ +\section GLS_E E + +
+
Enumeration datatype
+
A family of HDF5 datatypes whose elements represent named integer values + called members or enumerators. Currently, only ASCII names are supported.
+
+ +
+
External layout
+
A form of contiguous layout where a dataset's elements are physically + stored in unformatted binary files outside the HDF5 file.
+
+ +
+
External link
+
An HDF5 link whose destination is specified as a pair of an HDF5 file name +and an HDF5 path name in that file.
+
+ +\section GLS_F F + +
+
Field
+
See compound datatype.
+
+ +
+
File
+
+
    +
  1. A byte stream (in a storage context such as a file system or in + memory) formatted according to the HDF5 File Format Specification.
    2. +
  2. A (logical) container for HDF5 objects.
    3. +
+
+
+ +
+
File format
+
+
+ +
+
Fill value
+
+
+ +
+
Filter
+
+
+ +\section GLS_G G + +
+
Group
+
+

A kind of HDF5 object that stores a collection of HDF5 links. Each HDF5 + file contains at least one group, it's root group.

+

Among the destinations of an HDF5 group's links may be other HDF5 groups + (including the group itself!). This ability is sometimes referred to as the + closure property of groups. It is the basis for creating hierarchical or + more general graph-like structures.

+
+
+ +\section GLS_H H + +
+
Hard link
+
An HDF5 link whose destination is specified (internally) as the address of + an HDF5 object in the same HDF5 file.
+
+ +
+
Hierarchy
+
See group.
+
+ +
+
Hyperslab
+
+

A regular multidimensional pattern described by four vectors whose length + equals the rank of the pattern.

+
    +
  1. start - the offset where the first block of the hyperslab begins
    2. +
  2. stride - the offset between pattern blocks
    3. +
  3. count - the number of blocks
    4. +
  4. block - the extent of an individual pattern block
    5. +
+

For example, the black squares on a (two-dimensional) chessboard with + origin at (0,0) can be represented as the union of two + hyperslabs representing the even (0,2,4,6) and + odd (1,3,5,7) rows, respectively.

+ +

The hyperslab parameters for the even rows are: start (0,0), + stride (2,2), count (4,4), block + (1,1). Likewise the parameters for the odd rows are: start + (1,1), stride (2,2), count + (4,4), block (1,1).

+
+
+ +\section GLS_I I + +
+
Identifier
+
An opaque, transient handle used by the HDF5 library to manipulate + in-memory representations of HDF5 items.
+
+ +\section GLS_L L + +
+
Library
+
+
+ +
+
Link
+
+

A named, uni-directional association between a source and a + destination. In HDF5, the source is always the HDF5 group that hosts the + link in its link collection.

+

There are several ways to specify a link's destination:

+
    +
  • The address of an HDF5 object in the same HDF5 file; so-called hard + link.
    • +
  • A path name in the same or a different file; so-called soft or + external link.
    • +
  • User-defined
    • +
+

A link name can be any Unicode string that does not contain slashes + ("/") or consists of a single dot character + ("."). A link name must be unique in a group's link + collection.

+
+
+ +\section GLS_M M + +
+
Metadata
+
Data that in a given context has a descriptive or documentation function + for other data. Typically, the metadata is small compared to the data it + describes.
+
+ +
+
Member
+
+

A link destination is sometimes referred to as a member of the link's + source (group). This way of speaking invites confusion: A destination (e.g., + object) can be the destination of multiple links in the same (!) or + different groups. It would then be a "member" of a given group with + multiplicity greater than one and be a member of multiple groups.

+

It is the link that is a member of the group's link collection and not + the link destination.

+
+
+ +\section GLS_N N + +
+
Name
+
+

A Unicode string that depending on the item it names might be subject to + certain character restrictions, such as ASCII-encoded only. In HDF5, the + user might encounter the following names:

+
    +
  • A link name
    • +
  • A path name
    • +
  • An attribute name
    • +
  • A field name (compound datatypes)
    • +
  • A constant name (enumeration datatypes)
    • +
  • A tag name (opaque datatypes)
    • +
  • A file name
    • +
+
+
+ + +
+
Named datatype
+
See committed datatype.
+
+ +
+
Null dataspace
+
A shape which represents the empty set. Array variables with this shape + cannot store any values.
+
+ +\section GLS_O O + +
+
Object
+
An HDF5 group, dataset or named datatype; an HDF5 item that can be linked + to zero or more groups and decorated with zero or more HDF5 attributes.
+
+ +
+
Object reference
+
+
    +
  1. A datatype for representing references to objects in a file.
    2. +
  2. A value of the object reference datatype.
    3. +
+
+
+ +
+
Opaque datatype
+
A family of HDF5 datatypes whose elements are byte sequences of a given + fixed length. An opaque datatype can be tagged with a sequence of up to 256 + ASCII characters, e.g., MIME code.
+
+ +\section GLS_P P + +
+
Path name
+
A Unicode string that is the concatenation of link names separated by + slashes ('/'). In HDF5, path names are used to locate and refer + to HDF5 objects.
+
+ +
+
Plugin
+
An HDF5 library feature or capability that can be added dynamically at + application run time rather than library compilation time. Plugins are + usually implemented as shared libraries, and their discovery and loading + behavior can be controlled programmatically or through environment + variables. +
+
+ +
+
Point selection
+
A dataspace selection that consists of a set of points (coordinates) in + the same dataspace.
+
+ +
+
Property list
+
+

An HDF5 API construct, a means of customizing the behavior of the HDF5 + library when creating, accessing or modifying HDF5 items.

+

While the default property settings are sufficient in many cases, certain + HDF5 features, such as compression, can be reasonably controlled only by the + user who has to provide the desired settings via property lists.

+
+
+ +\section GLS_R R + +
+
Rank
+
The number of dimensions of a non-null dataspace.
+
+ +
+
Reference
+
+
    +
  1. An HDF5 object reference
    2. +
  2. An HDF5 dataset region reference
    3. +
+
+
+ +
+
Reference datatype
+
+
    +
  1. An HDF5 datatype whose elements represent references to HDF5 + objects.
    2. +
  2. An HDF5 datatype whose elements represent references to regions of an + HDF5 dataset.
    3. +
+
+
+ +
+
Region reference
+
See dataset region reference.
+
+ +
+
Root group
+
+

An HDF5 group that is present in all HDF5 files and that acts as the + entry or base point for all other data stored in an HDF5 file.

+

The root group is "the mother of all objects" in an HDF5 file in the + sense that all objects (and their attributes) can be discovered, + beginning at the root group, by combinations of the following + operations:

+
    +
  • Link traversal
    • +
  • De-referencing of object references
    • +
+

This discovery is portable and robust with respect to file-internal + storage reorganization.

+
+
+ +\section GLS_S S + +
+
Scalar dataspace
+
A kind of HDF5 dataspace that has the shape of a singleton, i.e., a set + containing a single element. Array variables with this shape store exactly one + element.
+
+ +
+
Selection
+
+
    +
  1. A subset of points of an HDF5 dataspace. The subset might be a point + selection or a combination (union, intersection, etc.) of hyperslabs.
    2. +
  2. A subset of dataset elements associated with a dataspace selection as + described under 1.
    3. +
+
+
+ +
+
Serialization
+
+
    +
  1. The flattening of an N-dimensional array into a 1-dimensional + array.
    2. +
  2. The encoding of a complex data item as a linear byte stream.
    3. +
+
+
+ +
+
Soft link
+
A kind of HDF5 link in which the link destination is specified as an HDF5 + path name. The path name may or may not refer to an actual object.
+
+ +
+
Storage layout
+
The storage arrangement for dataset elements, links in a group's link + collection, or attributes in an object's attribute collection.
+
+ +
+
String datatype
+
+
+ +
+
Super block
+
An HDF5 file format primitive; a block of data which contains information + required to access HDF5 files in a portable manner on multiple platforms. The + super block contains information such as version numbers, the size of offsets + and lengths, and the location of the root group.
+
+ +
+
SWMR
+
Single Writer Multiple Reader, a file access mode in which a single + process is permitted to write data to an HDF5 file while other processes are + permitted to read data from the same file without the need of inter-process + communication or synchronization.
+
+ +
+
Symbolic link
+
An external link or a soft link.
+
+ +\section GLS_U U + +

+    - CMake option to build the HDF filter plugins project as an external project
+
+      The HDF filter plugins project is a collection of registered compression
+      filters that can be dynamically loaded when needed to access data stored
+      in a hdf5 file. This CMake-only option allows the plugins to be built and
+      distributed with the hdf5 library and tools. Like the options for szip and

+
+      The option was refactored to use the CMake FetchContent process. This allows
+      more control over the filter targets, but required external project command
+      options to be moved to a CMake include file, HDF5PluginCache.cmake. Also

+      not being found.
+
+      The standard is now set to gnu99 when building with gcc on Solaris,
+      which allows POSIX things to be #defined and linked correctly. This
+      differs slightly from the gcc norm, where we set the standard to c99
+      and manually set POSIX #define symbols.

+
+    - Added a configure-time option to consider certain compiler warnings

+
+      A new configure-time option was added that converts some compiler warnings
+      to errors. This is mainly intended for library developers and currently
+      only works for gcc and clang. The warnings that are considered errors
+      will appear in the generated libhdf5.settings file. These warnings apply
+      to C and C++ code and will appear in "H5 C Flags" and H5 C++ Flags",
+      respectively. They will NOT be exported to h5cc, etc.
+
+      The default is OFF. Building with this option may fail when compiling
+      on operating systems and with compiler versions not commonly used by

+
+    - Add file locking configure and CMake options
+
+      HDF5 1.10.0 introduced a file locking scheme, primarily to help
+      enforce SWMR setup. Formerly, the only user-level control of the scheme
+      was via the HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING environment variable.
+
+      This change introduces configure-time options that control whether
+      or not file locking will be used and whether or not the library
+      ignores errors when locking has been disabled on the file system
+      (useful on some HPC Lustre installations).
+
+      In both the Autotools and CMake, the settings have the effect of changing
+      the default property list settings (see the H5Pset/get_file_locking()
+      entry, below).
+
+      The yes/no/best-effort file locking configure setting has also been
+      added to the libhdf5.settings file.
+
+      Autotools:
+
+        An --enable-file-locking=(yes|no|best-effort) option has been added.
+
+        yes:          Use file locking.
+        no:           Do not use file locking.
+        best-effort:  Use file locking and ignore "disabled" errors.
+
+      CMake:
+
+        Two self-explanatory options have been added:
+
+        HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING
+        HDF5_IGNORE_DISABLED_FILE_LOCKS
+
+        Setting both of these to ON is the equivalent to the Autotools'
+        best-effort setting.
+
+      NOTE:
+      The precedence order of the various file locking control mechanisms is:
+
+        1) HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING environment variable (highest)
+
+        2) H5Pset_file_locking()
+
+        3) configure/CMake options (which set the property list defaults)
+
+        4) library defaults (currently best-effort)

+
+    - CMake option to link the generated Fortran MOD files into the include
+      directory.
+
+      The Fortran generation of MOD files by a Fortran compile can produce
+      different binary files between SHARED and STATIC compiles with different
+      compilers and/or different platforms. Note that it has been found that
+      different versions of Fortran compilers will produce incompatible MOD
+      files. Currently, CMake will locate these MOD files in subfolders of
+      the include directory and add that path to the Fortran library target
+      in the CMake config file, which can be used by the CMake find library
+      process. For other build systems using the binary from a CMake install,
+      a new CMake configuration can be used to copy the pre-chosen version
+      of the Fortran MOD files into the install include directory.
+
+      The default will depend on the configuration of
+      BUILD_STATIC_LIBS and BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:
+          YES                   YES         Default to SHARED
+          YES                   NO          Default to STATIC
+          NO                    YES         Default to SHARED
+          NO                    NO          Default to SHARED
+      The defaults can be overridden by setting the config option
+          HDF5_INSTALL_MOD_FORTRAN to one of NO, SHARED, or STATIC

+
+      There are flags in named "error-xxx" files with warnings that may

+
+    Library:
+    --------
+    - Adds new file driver-level memory copy operation for
+      "ctl" callback and updates compact dataset I/O routines
+      to utilize it
+
+      When accessing an HDF5 file with a file driver that uses
+      memory allocated in special ways (e.g., without standard
+      library's `malloc`), a crash could be observed when HDF5
+      tries to perform `memcpy` operations on such a memory
+      region.
+
+      These changes add a new H5FD_FEAT_MEMMANAGE VFD feature
+      flag, which, if specified as supported by a VFD, will
+      inform HDF5 that the VFD either uses special memory
+      management routines or wishes to perform memory management
+      in a specific way. Therefore, this flag instructs HDF5 to
+      ask the file driver to perform memory management for
+      certain operations.
+
+      These changes also introduce a new "ctl" callback
+      operation identified by the H5FD_CTL__MEM_COPY op code.
+      This operation simply asks a VFD to perform a memory copy.
+      The arguments to this operation are passed to the "ctl"
+      callback's "input" parameter as a pointer to a struct
+      defined as:
+
+        struct H5FD_ctl_memcpy_args_t {
+          void *      dstbuf;  /**< Destination buffer */
+          hsize_t     dst_off; /**< Offset within destination buffer */
+          const void *srcbuf;  /**< Source buffer */
+          hsize_t     src_off; /**< Offset within source buffer */
+          size_t      len;     /**< Length of data to copy from source buffer */
+        } H5FD_ctl_memcpy_args_t;
+
+      Further, HDF5's compact dataset I/O routines were
+      identified as a problematic area that could cause a crash
+      for VFDs that make use of special memory management. Those
+      I/O routines were therefore updated to make use of this new
+      "ctl" callback operation in order to ask the underlying
+      file driver to correctly handle memory copies.
+
+      (JTH - 2021/09/28)
+
+    - Adds new "ctl" callback to VFD H5FD_class_t structure
+      with the following prototype:
+
+        herr_t (*ctl)(H5FD_t *file, uint64_t op_code,
+                      uint64_t flags, const void *input,
+                      void **output);
+
+      This newly-added "ctl" callback allows Virtual File
+      Drivers to intercept and handle arbitrary operations
+      identified by an operation code. Its parameters are
+      as follows:
+
+        `file` [in] - A pointer to the file to be operated on

+
+    - Change how the release part of version, in major.minor.release is checked
+      for compatibility
+
+      The HDF5 library uses a function, H5check_version, to check that
+      the version defined in the header files, which is used to compile an
+      application is compatible with the version codified in the library, which
+      the application loads at runtime. This previously required an exact match
+      or the library would print a warning, dump the build settings and then
+      abort or continue. An environment variable controlled the logic.
+
+      Now the function first checks that the library release version, in
+      major.minor.release, is not older than the version in the headers.
+      Secondly, if the release version is different, it checks if either
+      the library version or the header version is in the exception list, in
+      which case the release part of version, in major.minor.release, must
+      be exact. An environment variable still controls the logic.

+
+    - gcc warning suppression macros were moved out of H5public.h
+
+      The HDF5 library uses a set of macros to suppress warnings on gcc.
+      These warnings were originally located in H5public.h so that the
+      multi VFD (which only uses public headers) could also make use of them
+      but internal macros should not be publicly exposed like this.
+
+      These macros have now been moved to H5private.h. Pending future multi
+      VFD refactoring, the macros have been duplicated in H5FDmulti.c to
+      suppress the format string warnings there.

+
+    - H5Gcreate1() now rejects size_hint parameters larger than UINT32_MAX
+
+      The size_hint value is ultimately stored in a uint32_t struct field,
+      so specifying a value larger than this on a 64-bit machine can cause
+      undefined behavior including crashing the system.
+
+      The documentation for this API call was also incorrect, stating that
+      passing a negative value would cause the library to use a default
+      value. Instead, passing a "negative" value actually passes a very large
+      value, which is probably not what the user intends and can cause
+      crashes on 64-bit systems.
+
+      The Doxygen documentation has been updated and passing values larger
+      than UINT32_MAX for size_hint will now produce a normal HDF5 error.

+
+    - H5Pset_fapl_log() no longer crashes when passed an invalid fapl ID
+
+      When passed an invalid fapl ID, H5Pset_fapl_log() would usually
+      segfault when attempting to free an uninitialized pointer in the error
+      handling code. This behavior is more common in release builds or
+      when the memory sanitization checks were not selected as a build
+      option.
+
+      The pointer is now correctly initialized and the API call now
+      produces a normal HDF5 error when fed an invalid fapl ID.

+      (DER - 2021/04/28, HDFFV-11240)
+
+    - Fixes a segfault when H5Pset_mdc_log_options() is called multiple times
+
+      The call incorrectly attempts to free an internal copy of the previous
+      log location string, which causes a segfault. This only happens
+      when the call is invoked multiple times on the same property list.
+      On the first call to a given fapl, the log location is set to NULL so
+      the segfault does not occur.
+
+      The string is now handled properly and the segfault no longer occurs.

+
+    - HSYS_GOTO_ERROR now emits the results of GetLastError() on Windows
+
+      HSYS_GOTO_ERROR is an internal macro that is used to produce error
+      messages when system calls fail. These strings include errno and the
+      the associated strerror() value, which are not particularly useful
+      when a Win32 API call fails.
+
+      On Windows, this macro has been updated to include the result of
+      GetLastError(). When a system call fails on Windows, usually only
+      one of errno and GetLastError() will be useful, however we emit both
+      for the user to parse. The Windows error message is not emitted as
+      it would be awkward to free the FormatMessage() buffer given the
+      existing HDF5 error framework. Users will have to look up the error
+      codes in MSDN.
+
+      The format string on Windows has been changed from:
+
+        "%s, errno = %d, error message = '%s'"
+
+      to:
+
+        "%s, errno = %d, error message = '%s', Win32 GetLastError() = %"PRIu32""
+
+      for those inclined to parse it for error values.

+
+    - File locking now works on Windows
+
+      Since version 1.10.0, the HDF5 library has used a file locking scheme
+      to help enforce one reader at a time accessing an HDF5 file, which can
+      be helpful when setting up readers and writers to use the single-
+      writer/multiple-readers (SWMR) access pattern.
+
+      In the past, this was only functional on POSIX systems where flock() or
+      fcntl() were present. Windows used a no-op stub that always succeeded.
+
+      HDF5 now uses LockFileEx() and UnlockFileEx() to lock the file using the
+      same scheme as POSIX systems. We lock the entire file when we set up the
+      locks (by passing DWORDMAX as both size parameters to LockFileEx()).

+
+      H5Epush_ret() is a function-like macro that has been changed to
+      contain a `do {} while(0)` loop. Consequently, a trailing semicolon
+      is now required to end the `while` statement. Previously, a trailing
+      semi would work, but was not mandatory. This change was made to allow
+      clang-format to correctly format the source code.

+
+      The term "atom" is archaic and not in line with current HDF5 library
+      terminology, which uses "ID" instead. "Atom" has mostly been purged
+      from the library internals and this change removes H5E_ATOM from
+      the H5Epubgen.h (exposed via H5Epublic.h) and replaces it with
+      H5E_ID.

+
+    - Remove HDFS VFD stubs
+
+      The original implementation of the HDFS VFD included non-functional
+      versions of the following public API calls when the HDFS VFD is
+      not built as a part of the HDF5 library:
+
+      * H5FD_hdfs_init()
+      * H5Pget_fapl_hdfs()
+      * H5Pset_fapl_hdfs()
+
+      They will remain present in HDF5 1.10 and HDF5 1.12 releases
+      for binary compatibility purposes but have been removed as of 1.14.0.
+
+      Note that this has nothing to do with the real HDFS VFD API calls
+      that are fully functional when the HDFS VFD is configured and built.
+
+      We simply changed:
+
+        #ifdef LIBHDFS
+          
+        #else
+

+
+    - Refactored public exposure of haddr_t type in favor of "object tokens"
+
+      To better accommodate HDF5 VOL connectors where "object addresses in a file"
+      may not make much sense, the following changes were made to the library:
+
+      * Introduced new H5O_token_t "object token" type, which represents a
+        unique and permanent identifier for referencing an HDF5 object within
+        a container; these "object tokens" are meant to replace object addresses.
+        Along with the new type, a new H5Oopen_by_token API call was introduced
+        to open an object by a token, similar to how object addresses were
+        previously used with H5Oopen_by_addr.
+
+      * Introduced new H5Lget_info2, H5Lget_info_by_idx2, H5Literate2, H5Literate_by_name2,
+        H5Lvisit2 and H5Lvisit_by_name2 API calls, along with their associated H5L_info2_t
+        struct and H5L_iterate2_t callback function, which work with the newly-introduced
+        object tokens, instead of object addresses. The original functions have been
+        renamed to version 1 functions and are deprecated in favor of the new version 2
+        functions. The H5L_info_t and H5L_iterate_t types have been renamed to version 1
+        types and are now deprecated in favor of their version 2 counterparts. For each of
+        the functions and types, compatibility macros take place of the original symbols.
+
+      * Introduced new H5Oget_info3, H5Oget_info_by_name3, H5Oget_info_by_idx3,
+        H5Ovisit3 and H5Ovisit_by_name3 API calls, along with their associated H5O_info2_t
+        struct and H5O_iterate2_t callback function, which work with the newly-introduced
+        object tokens, instead of object addresses. The version 2 functions are now
+        deprecated in favor of the version 3 functions. The H5O_info_t and H5O_iterate_t
+        types have been renamed to version 1 types and are now deprecated in favor of their
+        version 2 counterparts. For each, compatibility macros take place of the original
+        symbols.
+
+      * Introduced new H5Oget_native_info, H5Oget_native_info_by_name and
+        H5Oget_native_info_by_idx API calls, along with their associated H5O_native_info_t
+        struct, which are used to retrieve the native HDF5 file format-specific information
+        about an object. This information (such as object header info and B-tree/heap info)
+        has been removed from the new H5O_info2_t struct so that the more generic
+        H5Oget_info(_by_name/_by_idx)3 routines will not try to retrieve it for non-native
+        VOL connectors.
+
+      * Added new H5Otoken_cmp, H5Otoken_to_str and H5Otoken_from_str routines to compare
+        two object tokens, convert an object token into a nicely-readable string format and
+        to convert an object token string back into a real object token, respectively.

+    - Added h5delete tool
+
+      Deleting HDF5 storage when using the VOL can be tricky when the VOL

+      the call to H5Fdelete() fails, the tool will attempt to use
+      the POSIX remove(3) call to remove the file.
+
+      Note that the HDF5 library does currently have support for
+      H5Fdelete() in the native VOL connector.

+          --merge             Follow external soft link recursively and merge data.
+          --prune             Do not follow external soft links and remove link.
+          --merge --prune     Follow external link, merge data and remove dangling link.

+      The code line that checks if the update of reference inside a compound

+Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.12.0 release
+===================================
+    Library
+    -------
+    - Fixed an H5Pget_filter_by_id1/2() assert w/ out of range filter IDs
+
+      Both H5Pget_filter_by_id1 and 2 did not range check the filter ID, which
+      could trip as assert in debug versions of the library. The library now
+      returns a normal HDF5 error when the filter ID is out of range.
+
+      (DER - 2021/11/23, HDFFV-11286)
+
+    - Fixed an issue with collective metadata reads being permanently disabled
+      after a dataset chunk lookup operation. This would usually cause a
+      mismatched MPI_Bcast and MPI_ERR_TRUNCATE issue in the library for
+      simple cases of H5Dcreate() -> H5Dwrite() -> H5Dcreate().
+
+      (JTH - 2021/11/08, HDFFV-11090)
+
+    - Fixed cross platform incompatibility of references within variable length
+      types
+
+      Reference types within variable length types previously could not be
+      read on a platform with different endianness from where they were
+      written. Fixed so cross platform portability is restored.
+
+      (NAF - 2021/09/30)
+
+    - Detection of simple data transform function "x"
+
+      In the case of the simple data transform function "x" the (parallel)
+      library recognizes this is the same as not applying this data transform
+      function. This improves the I/O performance. In the case of the parallel
+      library, it also avoids breaking to independent I/O, which makes it
+      possible to apply a filter when writing or reading data to or from
+      the HDF5 file.
+
+      (JWSB - 2021/09/13)
+
+    - Fixed an invalid read and memory leak when parsing corrupt file space
+      info messages
+
+      When the corrupt file from CVE-2020-10810 was parsed by the library,
+      the code that imports the version 0 file space info object header
+      message to the version 1 struct could read past the buffer read from
+      the disk, causing an invalid memory read. Not catching this error would
+      cause downstream errors that eventually resulted in a previously
+      allocated buffer to be unfreed when the library shut down. In builds
+      where the free lists are in use, this could result in an infinite loop
+      and SIGABRT when the library shuts down.
+
+      We now track the buffer size and raise an error on attempts to read
+      past the end of it.
+
+      (DER - 2021/08/12, HDFFV-11053)
+
+
+    - Fixed CVE-2018-14460
+
+      The tool h5repack produced a segfault when the rank in dataspace
+      message was corrupted, causing invalid read while decoding the
+      dimension sizes.
+
+      The problem was fixed by ensuring that decoding the dimension sizes
+      and max values will not go beyond the end of the buffer.
+
+      (BMR - 2021/05/12, HDFFV-11223)
+
+    - Fixed CVE-2018-11206
+
+      The tool h5dump produced a segfault when the size of a fill value
+      message was corrupted and caused a buffer overflow.
+
+      The problem was fixed by verifying the fill value's size
+      against the buffer size before attempting to access the buffer.
+
+      (BMR - 2021/03/15, HDFFV-10480)
+
+    - Fixed CVE-2018-14033 (same issue as CVE-2020-10811)
+
+      The tool h5dump produced a segfault when the storage size message
+      was corrupted and caused a buffer overflow.
+
+      The problem was fixed by verifying the storage size against the
+      buffer size before attempting to access the buffer.
+
+      (BMR - 2021/03/15, HDFFV-11159/HDFFV-11049)
+
+    - Remove underscores on header file guards
+
+      Header file guards used a variety of underscores at the beginning of the define.
+
+      Removed all leading (some trailing) underscores from header file guards.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/03/03, #361)
+
+    - Fixed a segmentation fault
+
+      A segmentation fault occurred with a Mathworks corrupted file.
+
+      A detection of accessing a null pointer was added to prevent the problem.
+
+      (BMR - 2021/02/19, HDFFV-11150)
+
+    - Fixed issue with MPI communicator and info object not being
+      copied into new FAPL retrieved from H5F_get_access_plist
+
+      Added logic to copy the MPI communicator and info object into
+      the output FAPL. MPI communicator is retrieved from the VFD, while
+      the MPI info object is retrieved from the file's original FAPL.
+
+      (JTH - 2021/02/15, HDFFV-11109)
+
+    - Fixed problems with vlens and refs inside compound using
+      H5VLget_file_type()
+
+      Modified library to properly ref count H5VL_object_t structs and only
+      consider file vlen and reference types to be equal if their files are
+      the same.
+
+      (NAF - 2021/01/22)
+
+    - Fixed CVE-2018-17432
+
+      The tool h5repack produced a segfault on a corrupted file which had
+      invalid rank for scalar or NULL datatype.
+
+      The problem was fixed by modifying the dataspace encode and decode
+      functions to detect and report invalid rank. h5repack now fails
+      with an error message for the corrupted file.
+
+      (BMR - 2020/10/26, HDFFV-10590)
+
+    - Creation of dataset with optional filter
+
+      When the combination of type, space, etc doesn't work for filter
+      and the filter is optional, it was supposed to be skipped but it was
+      not skipped and the creation failed.
+
+      Allowed the creation of the dataset in such a situation.
+
+      (BMR - 2020/08/13, HDFFV-10933)
+
+    - Explicitly declared dlopen to use RTLD_LOCAL
+
+      dlopen documentation states that if neither RTLD_GLOBAL nor
+      RTLD_LOCAL are specified, then the default behavior is unspecified.
+      The default on linux is usually RTLD_LOCAL while macos will default
+      to RTLD_GLOBAL.
+
+      (ADB - 2020/08/12, HDFFV-11127)
+
+    - H5Sset_extent_none() sets the dataspace class to H5S_NO_CLASS which
+      causes asserts/errors when passed to other dataspace API calls.
+
+      H5S_NO_CLASS is an internal class value that should not have been
+      exposed via a public API call.
+
+      In debug builds of the library, this can cause assert() function to
+      trip. In non-debug builds, it will produce normal library errors.
+
+      The new library behavior is for H5Sset_extent_none() to convert
+      the dataspace into one of type H5S_NULL, which is better handled
+      by the library and easier for developers to reason about.
+
+      (DER - 2020/07/27, HDFFV-11027)
+
+    - Fixed issues CVE-2018-13870 and CVE-2018-13869
+
+      When a buffer overflow occurred because a name length was corrupted
+      and became very large, h5dump crashed on memory access violation.
+
+      A check for reading pass the end of the buffer was added to multiple
+      locations to prevent the crashes and h5dump now simply fails with an
+      error message when this error condition occurs.
+
+      (BMR - 2020/07/22, HDFFV-11120 and HDFFV-11121)
+
+    - Fixed the segmentation fault when reading attributes with multiple threads
+
+      It was reported that the reading of attributes with variable length string
+      datatype will crash with segmentation fault particularly when the number of
+      threads is high (>16 threads).  The problem was due to the file pointer that
+      was set in the variable length string datatype for the attribute.  That file
+      pointer was already closed when the attribute was accessed.
+
+      The problem was fixed by setting the file pointer to the current opened file pointer
+      when the attribute was accessed.  Similar patch up was done before when reading
+      dataset with variable length string datatype.
+
+      (VC - 2020/07/13, HDFFV-11080)
+
+    - Fixed CVE-2020-10810
+
+      The tool h5clear produced a segfault during an error recovery in
+      the superblock decoding.  An internal pointer was reset to prevent
+      further accessing when it is not assigned with a value.
+
+      (BMR - 2020/06/29, HDFFV-11053)
+
+    - Fixed CVE-2018-17435
+
+      The tool h52gif produced a segfault when the size of an attribute
+      message was corrupted and caused a buffer overflow.
+
+      The problem was fixed by verifying the attribute message's size
+      against the buffer size before accessing the buffer.  h52gif was
+      also fixed to display the failure instead of silently exiting
+      after the segfault was eliminated.
+
+      (BMR - 2020/06/19, HDFFV-10591)
+
+
+    Java Library
+    ------------
+    - JNI utility function does not handle new references.
+
+      The JNI utility function for converting reference data to string did
+      not use the new APIs. In addition to fixing that function, added new
+      java tests for using the new APIs.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/02/16, HDFFV-11212)
+
+    - The H5FArray.java class, in which virtually the entire execution time
+      is spent using the HDFNativeData method that converts from an array
+      of bytes to an array of the destination Java type.
+
+        1. Convert the entire byte array into a 1-d array of the desired type,
+           rather than performing 1 conversion per row;
+        2. Use the Java Arrays method copyOfRange to grab the section of the
+           array from (1) that is desired to be inserted into the destination array.
+
+      (PGT,ADB - 2020/12/13, HDFFV-10865)
+
+    - Added ability to test java library with VOLs.
+
+      Created a new CMake script that combines the java and vol test scripts.
+
+      (ADB - 2020/02/03, HDFFV-10996)
+
+    - Tests fail for non-English locales.
+
+      In the JUnit tests with a non-English locale, only the part before
+      the decimal comma is replaced by XXXX and this leads to a comparison
+      error. Changed the regex for the Time substitution.
+
+      (ADB - 2020/01/09, HDFFV-10995)
+
+
+    Configuration
+    -------------
+    - Corrected path searched by CMake find_package command
+
+      The install path for cmake find_package files had been changed to use
+        "share/cmake"
+      for all platforms. However the trailing "hdf5" directory was not removed.
+      This "hdf5" additional directory has been removed.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/09/27)
+
+    - Corrected pkg-config compile script
+
+      It was discovered that the position of the "$@" argument for the command
+      in the compile script may fail on some platforms and configurations. The
+      position of the "$@"command argument was moved before the pkg-config sub command.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/08/30)
+
+    - Fixed CMake C++ compiler flags
+
+      A recent refactoring of the C++ configure files accidentally removed the
+      file that executed the enable_language command for C++ needed by the
+      HDFCXXCompilerFlags.cmake file. Also updated the intel warnings files,
+      including adding support for windows platforms.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/08/10)
+
+    - Better support for libaec (open-source Szip library) in CMake
+
+      Implemented better support for libaec 1.0.5 (or later) library. This version
+      of libaec contains improvements for better integration with HDF5. Furthermore,
+      the variable USE_LIBAEC_STATIC has been introduced to allow to make use of
+      static version of libaec library. Use libaec_DIR or libaec_ROOT to set
+      the location in which libaec can be found.
+
+      Be aware, the Szip library of libaec 1.0.4 depends on another library within
+      libaec library. This dependency is not specified in the current CMake
+      configuration which means that one can not use the static Szip library of
+      libaec 1.0.4 when building HDF5. This has been resolved in libaec 1.0.5.
+
+      (JWSB - 2021/06/22)
+
+    - Refactor CMake configure for Fortran
+
+      The Fortran configure tests for KINDs reused a single output file that was
+      read to form the Integer and Real Kinds defines. However, if config was run
+      more then once, the CMake completed variable prevented the tests from executing
+      again and the last value saved in the file was used to create the define.
+      Creating separate files for each KIND solved the issue.
+
+      In addition the test for H5_PAC_C_MAX_REAL_PRECISION was not pulling in
+      defines for proper operation and did not define H5_PAC_C_MAX_REAL_PRECISION
+      correctly for a zero value. This was fixed by supplying the required defines.
+      In addition it was moved from the Fortran specific HDF5UseFortran.camke file
+      to the C centric ConfigureChecks.cmake file.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/06/03)
+
+    - Move emscripten flag to compile flags
+
+      The emscripten flag, -O0, was removed from target_link_libraries command
+      to the correct target_compile_options command.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/04/26 HDFFV-11083)
+
+    - Remove arbitrary warning flag groups from CMake builds
+
+      The arbitrary groups were created to reduce the quantity of warnings being
+      reported that overwhelmed testing report systems. Considerable work has
+      been accomplished to reduce the warning count and these arbitrary groups
+      are no longer needed.
+      Also the default for all warnings, HDF5_ENABLE_ALL_WARNINGS, is now ON.
+
+      Visual Studio warnings C4100, C4706, and C4127 have been moved to
+      developer warnings, HDF5_ENABLE_DEV_WARNINGS, and are disabled for normal builds.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/03/22, HDFFV-11228)
+
+    - Reclassify CMake messages, to allow new modes and --log-level option
+
+      CMake message commands have a mode argument. By default, STATUS mode
+      was chosen for any non-error message. CMake version 3.15 added additional
+      modes, NOTICE, VERBOSE, DEBUG and TRACE. All message commands with a mode
+      of STATUS were reviewed and most were reclassified as VERBOSE. The new
+      mode was protected by a check for a CMake version of at least 3.15. If CMake
+      version 3.17 or above is used, the user can use the command line option
+      of "--log-level" to further restrict which message commands are displayed.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/01/11, HDFFV-11144)
+
+    - Fixes Autotools determination of the stat struct having an st_blocks field
+
+      A missing parenthesis in an autoconf macro prevented building the test
+      code used to determine if the stat struct contains the st_blocks field.
+      Now that the test functions correctly, the H5_HAVE_STAT_ST_BLOCKS #define
+      found in H5pubconf.h will be defined correctly on both the Autotools and
+      CMake. This #define is only used in the tests and does not affect the
+      HDF5 C library.
+
+      (DER - 2021/01/07, HDFFV-11201)
+
+    - Add missing ENV variable line to hdfoptions.cmake file
+
+      Using the build options to use system SZIP/ZLIB libraries need to also
+      specify the library root directory. Setting the {library}_ROOT ENV
+      variable was added to the hdfoptions.cmake file.
+
+      (ADB - 2020/10/19 HDFFV-11108)
+
+
+    Tools
+    -----
+    - Changed how h5dump and h5ls identify long double.
+
+      Long double support is not consistent across platforms. Tools will always
+      identify long double as 128-bit [little/big]-endian float nn-bit precision.
+      New test file created for datasets with attributes for float, double and
+      long double. In addition any unknown integer or float datatype will now
+      also show the number of bits for precision.
+      These files are also used in the java tests.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/03/24, HDFFV-11229,HDFFV-11113)
+
+    - Fixed tools argument parsing.
+
+      Tools parsing used the length of the option from the long array to match
+      the option from the command line. This incorrectly matched a shorter long
+      name option that happened to be a subset of another long option.
+      Changed to match whole names.
+
+      (ADB - 2021/01/19, HDFFV-11106)
+
+    - The tools library was updated by standardizing the error stack process.
+
+      General sequence is:
+        h5tools_setprogname(PROGRAMNAME);
+        h5tools_setstatus(EXIT_SUCCESS);
+        h5tools_init();
+        ... process the command-line (check for error-stack enable) ...
+        h5tools_error_report();
+        ... (do work) ...
+        h5diff_exit(ret);
+
+      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-11066)
+
+    - h5diff fixed a command line parsing error.
+
+      h5diff would ignore the argument to -d (delta) if it is smaller than DBL_EPSILON.
+      The macro H5_DBL_ABS_EQUAL was removed and a direct value comparison was used.
+
+      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-10897)
+
+    - h5diff added a command line option to ignore attributes.
+
+      h5diff would ignore all objects with a supplied path if the exclude-path argument is used.
+      Adding the exclude-attribute argument will only exclude attributes, with the supplied path,
+      from comparison.
+
+      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-5935)
+
+    - h5diff added another level to the verbose argument to print filenames.
+
+      Added verbose level 3 that is level 2 plus the filenames. The levels are:
+        0 : Identical to '-v' or '--verbose'
+        1 : All level 0 information plus one-line attribute status summary
+        2 : All level 1 information plus extended attribute status report
+        3 : All level 2 information plus file names
+
+      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-1005)
+
+    - h5repack was fixed to repack the reference attributes properly.
+
+      The code line that checks if the update of reference inside a compound
+      datatype is misplaced outside the code block loop that carries out the
+      check. In consequence, the next attribute that is not the reference
+      type was repacked again as the reference type and caused the failure of
+      repacking. The fix is to move the corresponding code line to the correct
+      code block.
+
+      (KY -2020/02/10, HDFFV-11014)
+
+    - h5diff was updated to use the new reference APIs.
+
+      h5diff uses the new reference APIs to compare references.
+      Attribute references can also be compared.
+
+      (ADB - 2019/12/19, HDFFV-10980)
+
+    - h5dump and h5ls were updated to use the new reference APIs.
+
+      The tools library now use the new reference APIs to inspect a
+      file. Also the DDL spec was updated to reflect the format
+      changes produced with the new APIs. The export API and support
+      functions in the JNI were updated to match.

+Known Problems
+==============
+    Setting a variable-length dataset fill value will leak the memory allocated
+    for the p field of the hvl_t struct. A fix is in progress for this.
+    HDFFV-10840
+
+    CMake files do not behave correctly with paths containing spaces.
+    Do not use spaces in paths because the required escaping for handling spaces
+    results in very complex and fragile build files.
+    ADB - 2019/05/07
+
+    At present, metadata cache images may not be generated by parallel
+    applications.  Parallel applications can read files with metadata cache
+    images, but since this is a collective operation, a deadlock is possible
+    if one or more processes do not participate.
+
+    CPP ptable test fails on both VS2017 and VS2019 with Intel compiler, JIRA
+    issue: HDFFV-10628.  This test will pass with VS2015 with Intel compiler.
+
+    The subsetting option in ph5diff currently will fail and should be avoided.
+    The subsetting option works correctly in serial h5diff.
+
+    Known problems in previous releases can be found in the HISTORY*.txt files
+    in the HDF5 source. Please report any new problems found to
+    help@hdfgroup.org.
+
+
+CMake vs. Autotools installations
+=================================
+While both build systems produce similar results, there are differences.
+Each system produces the same set of folders on linux (only CMake works
+on standard Windows); bin, include, lib and share. Autotools places the
+COPYING and RELEASE.txt file in the root folder, CMake places them in
+the share folder.
+
+The bin folder contains the tools and the build scripts. Additionally, CMake
+creates dynamic versions of the tools with the suffix "-shared". Autotools
+installs one set of tools depending on the "--enable-shared" configuration
+option.
+  build scripts
+  -------------
+  Autotools: h5c++, h5cc, h5fc
+  CMake: h5c++, h5cc, h5hlc++, h5hlcc
+
+The include folder holds the header files and the fortran mod files. CMake
+places the fortran mod files into separate shared and static subfolders,
+while Autotools places one set of mod files into the include folder. Because
+CMake produces a tools library, the header files for tools will appear in
+the include folder.
+
+The lib folder contains the library files, and CMake adds the pkgconfig
+subfolder with the hdf5*.pc files used by the bin/build scripts created by
+the CMake build. CMake separates the C interface code from the fortran code by
+creating C-stub libraries for each Fortran library. In addition, only CMake
+installs the tools library. The names of the szip libraries are different
+between the build systems.
+
+The share folder will have the most differences because CMake builds include
+a number of CMake specific files for support of CMake's find_package and support
+for the HDF5 Examples CMake project.
+
+The issues with the gif tool are:
+    HDFFV-10592 CVE-2018-17433
+    HDFFV-10593 CVE-2018-17436
+    HDFFV-11048 CVE-2020-10809
+These CVE issues have not yet been addressed and can be avoided by not building
+the gif tool. Disable building the High-Level tools with these options:
+    autotools:   --disable-hltools
+    cmake:       HDF5_BUILD_HL_TOOLS=OFF

-    - CMake option to build the HDF filter plugins project as an external project
-
-      The HDF filter plugins project is a collection of registered compression
-      filters that can be dynamically loaded when needed to access data stored
-      in a hdf5 file. This CMake-only option allows the plugins to be built and
-      distributed with the hdf5 library and tools. Like the options for szip and
-      zlib, either a tgz file or a git repository can be specified for the source.
-
-      The option was refactored to use the CMake FetchContent process. This allows
-      more control over the filter targets, but required external project command
-      options to be moved to a CMake include file, HDF5PluginCache.cmake. Also
-      enabled the filter examples to be used as tests for operation of the

-      been clang (via 'cc').
-
-      The default compilers have been set to 'cc' for C and 'c++' for C++,
-      which will pick up clang and clang++ respectively on FreeBSD 10+.
-      Additionally, clang options are now set correctly for both C and C++
-      and g++ options will now be set if that compiler is being used (an
-      omission from the former functionality).

-    - Added a configure-time option to consider certain compiler warnings

-
-      A new configure-time option was added that converts some compiler warnings
-      to errors. This is mainly intended for library developers and currently
-      only works for gcc and clang. The warnings that are considered errors
-      will appear in the generated libhdf5.settings file. These warnings apply
-      to C and C++ code and will appear in "H5 C Flags" and H5 C++ Flags",
-      respectively. They will NOT be exported to h5cc, etc.
-
-      The default is OFF. Building with this option may fail when compiling
-      on operating systems and with compiler versions not commonly used by
-      the library developers. Compilation may also fail when headers not
-      under the control of the library developers (e.g., mpi.h, hdfs.h) raise
-      warnings.

-    - Add file locking configure and CMake options
-
-      HDF5 1.10.0 introduced a file locking scheme, primarily to help
-      enforce SWMR setup. Formerly, the only user-level control of the scheme
-      was via the HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING environment variable.
-
-      This change introduces configure-time options that control whether
-      or not file locking will be used and whether or not the library
-      ignores errors when locking has been disabled on the file system
-      (useful on some HPC Lustre installations).
-
-      In both the Autotools and CMake, the settings have the effect of changing
-      the default property list settings (see the H5Pset/get_file_locking()
-      entry, below).
-
-      The yes/no/best-effort file locking configure setting has also been
-      added to the libhdf5.settings file.
-
-      Autotools:
-
-        An --enable-file-locking=(yes|no|best-effort) option has been added.
-
-        yes:          Use file locking.
-        no:           Do not use file locking.
-        best-effort:  Use file locking and ignore "disabled" errors.
-
-      CMake:
-
-        Two self-explanatory options have been added:
-
-        HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING
-        HDF5_IGNORE_DISABLED_FILE_LOCKS
-
-        Setting both of these to ON is the equivalent to the Autotools'
-        best-effort setting.
-
-      NOTE:
-      The precedence order of the various file locking control mechanisms is:
-
-        1) HDF5_USE_FILE_LOCKING environment variable (highest)
-
-        2) H5Pset_file_locking()
-
-        3) configure/CMake options (which set the property list defaults)

-    - CMake option to link the generated Fortran MOD files into the include
-      directory.
-
-      The Fortran generation of MOD files by a Fortran compile can produce
-      different binary files between SHARED and STATIC compiles with different
-      compilers and/or different platforms. Note that it has been found that
-      different versions of Fortran compilers will produce incompatible MOD
-      files. Currently, CMake will locate these MOD files in subfolders of
-      the include directory and add that path to the Fortran library target
-      in the CMake config file, which can be used by the CMake find library
-      process. For other build systems using the binary from a CMake install,
-      a new CMake configuration can be used to copy the pre-chosen version
-      of the Fortran MOD files into the install include directory.
-
-      The default will depend on the configuration of
-      BUILD_STATIC_LIBS and BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:
-          YES                   YES         Default to SHARED
-          YES                   NO          Default to STATIC
-          NO                    YES         Default to SHARED
-          NO                    NO          Default to SHARED
-      The defaults can be overridden by setting the config option
-          HDF5_INSTALL_MOD_FORTRAN to one of NO, SHARED, or STATIC

     Library:
     --------
-    - Change how the release part of version, in major.minor.release is checked
-      for compatibility
-
-      The HDF5 library uses a function, H5check_version, to check that
-      the version defined in the header files, which is used to compile an
-      application is compatible with the version codified in the library, which
-      the application loads at runtime. This previously required an exact match
-      or the library would print a warning, dump the build settings and then
-      abort or continue. An environment variable controlled the logic.
-
-      Now the function first checks that the library release version, in
-      major.minor.release, is not older than the version in the headers.
-      Secondly, if the release version is different, it checks if either
-      the library version or the header version is in the exception list, in
-      which case the release part of version, in major.minor.release, must
-      be exact. An environment variable still controls the logic.

-    - gcc warning suppression macros were moved out of H5public.h
-
-      The HDF5 library uses a set of macros to suppress warnings on gcc.
-      These warnings were originally located in H5public.h so that the
-      multi VFD (which only uses public headers) could also make use of them
-      but internal macros should not be publicly exposed like this.
-
-      These macros have now been moved to H5private.h. Pending future multi
-      VFD refactoring, the macros have been duplicated in H5FDmulti.c to
-      suppress the format string warnings there.

-    - H5Gcreate1() now rejects size_hint parameters larger than UINT32_MAX
-
-      The size_hint value is ultimately stored in a uint32_t struct field,
-      so specifying a value larger than this on a 64-bit machine can cause
-      undefined behavior including crashing the system.
-
-      The documentation for this API call was also incorrect, stating that
-      passing a negative value would cause the library to use a default
-      value. Instead, passing a "negative" value actually passes a very large
-      value, which is probably not what the user intends and can cause
-      crashes on 64-bit systems.
-
-      The Doxygen documentation has been updated and passing values larger
-      than UINT32_MAX for size_hint will now produce a normal HDF5 error.

-    - H5Pset_fapl_log() no longer crashes when passed an invalid fapl ID

-      When passed an invalid fapl ID, H5Pset_fapl_log() would usually
-      segfault when attempting to free an uninitialized pointer in the error
-      handling code. This behavior is more common in release builds or
-      when the memory sanitization checks were not selected as a build
-      option.
-
-      The pointer is now correctly initialized and the API call now
-      produces a normal HDF5 error when fed an invalid fapl ID.

-      when the call is invoked multiple times on the same property list.
-      On the first call to a given fapl, the log location is set to NULL so
-      the segfault does not occur.

-    - HSYS_GOTO_ERROR now emits the results of GetLastError() on Windows
+    - Add a new public function, H5ESget_requests()
 
-      HSYS_GOTO_ERROR is an internal macro that is used to produce error
-      messages when system calls fail. These strings include errno and the
-      the associated strerror() value, which are not particularly useful
-      when a Win32 API call fails.
+      This function allows the user to retrieve request pointers from an event
+      set. It is intended for use primarily by VOL plug in developers.
 
-      On Windows, this macro has been updated to include the result of
-      GetLastError(). When a system call fails on Windows, usually only
-      one of errno and GetLastError() will be useful, however we emit both
-      for the user to parse. The Windows error message is not emitted as
-      it would be awkward to free the FormatMessage() buffer given the
-      existing HDF5 error framework. Users will have to look up the error
-      codes in MSDN.

-    - File locking now works on Windows
-
-      Since version 1.10.0, the HDF5 library has used a file locking scheme
-      to help enforce one reader at a time accessing an HDF5 file, which can
-      be helpful when setting up readers and writers to use the single-
-      writer/multiple-readers (SWMR) access pattern.
-
-      In the past, this was only functional on POSIX systems where flock() or
-      fcntl() were present. Windows used a no-op stub that always succeeded.
-
-      HDF5 now uses LockFileEx() and UnlockFileEx() to lock the file using the
-      same scheme as POSIX systems. We lock the entire file when we set up the
-      locks (by passing DWORDMAX as both size parameters to LockFileEx()).

-    - Refactored public exposure of haddr_t type in favor of "object tokens"
-
-      To better accommodate HDF5 VOL connectors where "object addresses in a file"
-      may not make much sense, the following changes were made to the library:
-
-      * Introduced new H5O_token_t "object token" type, which represents a
-        unique and permanent identifier for referencing an HDF5 object within
-        a container; these "object tokens" are meant to replace object addresses.
-        Along with the new type, a new H5Oopen_by_token API call was introduced
-        to open an object by a token, similar to how object addresses were
-        previously used with H5Oopen_by_addr.
-
-      * Introduced new H5Lget_info2, H5Lget_info_by_idx2, H5Literate2, H5Literate_by_name2,
-        H5Lvisit2 and H5Lvisit_by_name2 API calls, along with their associated H5L_info2_t
-        struct and H5L_iterate2_t callback function, which work with the newly-introduced
-        object tokens, instead of object addresses. The original functions have been
-        renamed to version 1 functions and are deprecated in favor of the new version 2
-        functions. The H5L_info_t and H5L_iterate_t types have been renamed to version 1
-        types and are now deprecated in favor of their version 2 counterparts. For each of
-        the functions and types, compatibility macros take place of the original symbols.
-
-      * Introduced new H5Oget_info3, H5Oget_info_by_name3, H5Oget_info_by_idx3,
-        H5Ovisit3 and H5Ovisit_by_name3 API calls, along with their associated H5O_info2_t
-        struct and H5O_iterate2_t callback function, which work with the newly-introduced
-        object tokens, instead of object addresses. The version 2 functions are now
-        deprecated in favor of the version 3 functions. The H5O_info_t and H5O_iterate_t
-        types have been renamed to version 1 types and are now deprecated in favor of their
-        version 2 counterparts. For each, compatibility macros take place of the original
-        symbols.
-
-      * Introduced new H5Oget_native_info, H5Oget_native_info_by_name and
-        H5Oget_native_info_by_idx API calls, along with their associated H5O_native_info_t
-        struct, which are used to retrieve the native HDF5 file format-specific information
-        about an object. This information (such as object header info and B-tree/heap info)
-        has been removed from the new H5O_info2_t struct so that the more generic
-        H5Oget_info(_by_name/_by_idx)3 routines will not try to retrieve it for non-native
-        VOL connectors.
-
-      * Added new H5Otoken_cmp, H5Otoken_to_str and H5Otoken_from_str routines to compare
-        two object tokens, convert an object token into a nicely-readable string format and
-        to convert an object token string back into a real object token, respectively.

-
-    - Add new public function H5Sselect_adjust.
-
-      This function shifts a dataspace selection by a specified logical offset
-      within the dataspace extent.  This can be useful for VOL developers to
-      implement chunked datasets.
+    Parallel Library:
+    -----------------
+    - Several improvements to parallel compression feature, including:
 
-      (NAF - 2019/11/18)
+      * Improved support for collective I/O (for both writes and reads)
 
-    - Add new public function H5Sselect_project_intersection.
+      * Significant reduction of memory usage for the feature as a whole
 
-      This function computes the intersection between two dataspace selections
-      and projects that intersection into a third selection.  This can be useful
-      for VOL developers to implement chunked or virtual datasets.
+      * Reduction of copying of application data buffers passed to H5Dwrite
 
-      (NAF - 2019/11/13, ID-148)
+      * Addition of support for incremental file space allocation for filtered
+        datasets created in parallel. Incremental file space allocation is the
+        default for these types of datasets (early file space allocation is
+        also still supported), while early file space allocation is still the
+        default (and only supported allocation time) for unfiltered datasets
+        created in parallel. Incremental file space allocation should help with
+        parallel HDF5 applications that wish to use fill values on filtered
+        datasets, but would typically avoid doing so since dataset creation in
+        parallel would often take an excessive amount of time. Since these
+        datasets previously used early file space allocation, HDF5 would
+        allocate space for and write fill values to every chunk in the dataset
+        at creation time, leading to noticeable overhead. Instead, with
+        incremental file space allocation, allocation of file space for chunks
+        and writing of fill values to those chunks will be delayed until each
+        individual chunk is initially written to.
 
-    - Add new public function H5VLget_file_type.
+      * Addition of support for HDF5's "don't filter partial edge chunks" flag
+        (https://portal.hdfgroup.org/display/HDF5/H5P_SET_CHUNK_OPTS)
 
-      This function returns a datatype equivalent to the supplied datatype but
-      with the location set to be in the file.  This datatype can then be used
-      with H5Tconvert to convert data between file and in-memory representation.
-      This function is intended for use only by VOL connector developers.
+      * Addition of proper support for HDF5 fill values with the feature
 
-      (NAF - 2019/11/08, ID-127)
+      * Addition of 'H5_HAVE_PARALLEL_FILTERED_WRITES' macro to H5pubconf.h
+        so HDF5 applications can determine at compile-time whether the feature
+        is available
 
+      * Addition of simple examples (ph5_filtered_writes.c and
+        ph5_filtered_writes_no_sel.c) under examples directory to demonstrate
+        usage of the feature
 
-    Parallel Library:

-    - Replaced HDF5AtomException with HDF5IdException
-
-      Since H5E_ATOM changed to H5E_ID in the C library, the Java exception
-      that wraps the error category was also renamed. Its functionality

     Tools:
     ------
-    - Refactored the perform tools and removed depends on test library.
-
-      Moved the perf and h5perf tools from tools/test/perform to
-      tools/src/h5perf so that they can be installed. This required
-      that the test library dependency be removed by copying the
-      needed functions from h5test.c.
-      The standalone scripts and other perform tools remain in the
-      tools/test/perform folder.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/08/10)
-
-    - Removed partial long exceptions
-
-      Some of the tools accepted shortened versions of the long options
-      (ex: --datas instead of --dataset). These were implemented inconsistently,
-      are difficult to maintian, and occasionally block useful long option
-      names. These partial long options have been removed from all the tools.

-      (ADB - 2021/01/14, HDFFV-11099)
-
-    - Added h5delete tool
-
-      Deleting HDF5 storage when using the VOL can be tricky when the VOL
-      does not create files. The h5delete tool is a simple wrapper around
-      the H5Fdelete() API call that uses the VOL specified in the
-      HDF5_VOL_CONNECTOR environment variable to delete a "file". If
-      the call to H5Fdelete() fails, the tool will attempt to use
-      the POSIX remove(3) call to remove the file.
-
-      Note that the HDF5 library does currently have support for
-      H5Fdelete() in the native VOL connector.
-
-      (DER - 2020/12/16)
-
-    - h5repack added options to control how external links are handled.
-
-      Currently h5repack preserves external links and cannot copy and merge
-      data from the external files. Two options, merge and prune, were added to
-      control how to merge data from an external link into the resulting file.
-          --merge             Follow external soft link recursively and merge data.
-          --prune             Do not follow external soft links and remove link.
-          --merge --prune     Follow external link, merge data and remove dangling link.
-
-      (ADB - 2020/08/05, HDFFV-9984)
-
-    - h5repack was fixed to repack the reference attributes properly.
-      The code line that checks if the update of reference inside a compound
-      datatype is misplaced outside the code block loop that carries out the
-      check. In consequence, the next attribute that is not the reference
-      type was repacked again as the reference type and caused the failure of
-      repacking. The fix is to move the corresponding code line to the correct
-      code block.

 Bug Fixes since HDF5-1.12.0 release
 ===================================
     Library
     -------
-    - Fixed an H5Pget_filter_by_id1/2() assert w/ out of range filter IDs
-
-      Both H5Pget_filter_by_id1 and 2 did not range check the filter ID, which
-      could trip as assert in debug versions of the library. The library now
-      returns a normal HDF5 error when the filter ID is out of range.
-
-      (DER - 2021/11/23, HDFFV-11286)
-
-    - Fixed an issue with collective metadata reads being permanently disabled
-      after a dataset chunk lookup operation. This would usually cause a
-      mismatched MPI_Bcast and MPI_ERR_TRUNCATE issue in the library for
-      simple cases of H5Dcreate() -> H5Dwrite() -> H5Dcreate().
-
-      (JTH - 2021/11/08, HDFFV-11090)
-
-    - Fixed cross platform incompatibility of references within variable length
-      types
-
-      Reference types within variable length types previously could not be
-      read on a platform with different endianness from where they were
-      written. Fixed so cross platform portability is restored.

-
-    - Detection of simple data transform function "x"
-
-      In the case of the simple data transform function "x" the (parallel)
-      library recognizes this is the same as not applying this data transform
-      function. This improves the I/O performance. In the case of the parallel
-      library, it also avoids breaking to independent I/O, which makes it
-      possible to apply a filter when writing or reading data to or from
-      the HDF5 file.
-
-      (JWSB - 2021/09/13)
-
-    - Fixed an invalid read and memory leak when parsing corrupt file space
-      info messages
-
-      When the corrupt file from CVE-2020-10810 was parsed by the library,
-      the code that imports the version 0 file space info object header
-      message to the version 1 struct could read past the buffer read from
-      the disk, causing an invalid memory read. Not catching this error would
-      cause downstream errors that eventually resulted in a previously
-      allocated buffer to be unfreed when the library shut down. In builds
-      where the free lists are in use, this could result in an infinite loop
-      and SIGABRT when the library shuts down.
-
-      We now track the buffer size and raise an error on attempts to read
-      past the end of it.

-
-      The tool h5repack produced a segfault when the rank in dataspace
-      message was corrupted, causing invalid read while decoding the
-      dimension sizes.
-
-      The problem was fixed by ensuring that decoding the dimension sizes

-
-    - H5Sset_extent_none() sets the dataspace class to H5S_NO_CLASS which
-      causes asserts/errors when passed to other dataspace API calls.
-
-      H5S_NO_CLASS is an internal class value that should not have been
-      exposed via a public API call.
-
-      In debug builds of the library, this can cause assert() function to
-      trip. In non-debug builds, it will produce normal library errors.
-
-      The new library behavior is for H5Sset_extent_none() to convert
-      the dataspace into one of type H5S_NULL, which is better handled
-      by the library and easier for developers to reason about.

-    - Fixed the segmentation fault when reading attributes with multiple threads
-
-      It was reported that the reading of attributes with variable length string
-      datatype will crash with segmentation fault particularly when the number of
-      threads is high (>16 threads).  The problem was due to the file pointer that
-      was set in the variable length string datatype for the attribute.  That file
-      pointer was already closed when the attribute was accessed.
-
-      The problem was fixed by setting the file pointer to the current opened file pointer
-      when the attribute was accessed.  Similar patch up was done before when reading
-      dataset with variable length string datatype.

+    - Fixed a metadata cache bug when resizing a pinned/protected cache entry
+
+      When resizing a pinned/protected cache entry, the metadata
+      cache code previously would wait until after resizing the
+      entry to attempt to log the newly-dirtied entry. This would
+      cause H5C_resize_entry to mark the entry as dirty and make
+      H5AC_resize_entry think that it doesn't need to add the
+      newly-dirtied entry to the dirty entries skiplist.
+
+      Thus, a subsequent H5AC__log_moved_entry would think it
+      needs to allocate a new entry for insertion into the dirty
+      entry skip list, since the entry doesn't exist on that list.
+      This causes an assertion failure, as the code to allocate a
+      new entry assumes that the entry is not dirty.

+
+    - Issue #1436 identified a problem with the H5_VERS_RELEASE check in the
+      H5check_version function.
+
+      Investigating the original fix, #812, we discovered some inconsistencies
+      with a new block added to check H5_VERS_RELEASE for incompatibilities.
+      This new block was not using the new warning text dealing with the
+      H5_VERS_RELEASE check and would cause the warning to be duplicated.
+      
+      By removing the H5_VERS_RELEASE argument in the first check for 
+      H5_VERS_MAJOR and H5_VERS_MINOR, the second check would only check

+      to the statement that except for the develop branch, all release versions

+
+    - Unified handling of collective metadata reads to correctly fix old bugs
+
+      Due to MPI-related issues occurring in HDF5 from mismanagement of the
+      status of collective metadata reads, they were forced to be disabled
+      during chunked dataset raw data I/O in the HDF5 1.10.5 release. This
+      wouldn't generally have affected application performance because HDF5
+      already disables collective metadata reads during chunk lookup, since
+      it is generally unlikely that the same chunks will be read by all MPI
+      ranks in the I/O operation. However, this was only a partial solution
+      that wasn't granular enough.
+
+      This change now unifies the handling of the file-global flag and the
+      API context-level flag for collective metadata reads in order to
+      simplify querying of the true status of collective metadata reads. Thus,
+      collective metadata reads are once again enabled for chunked dataset
+      raw data I/O, but manually controlled at places where some processing
+      occurs on MPI rank 0 only and would cause issues when collective
+      metadata reads are enabled.

+
+    - Fixed several potential MPI deadlocks in library failure conditions
+
+      In the parallel library, there were several places where MPI rank 0
+      could end up skipping past collective MPI operations when some failure
+      occurs in rank 0-specific processing. This would lead to deadlocks
+      where rank 0 completes an operation while other ranks wait in the
+      collective operation. These places have been rewritten to have rank 0
+      push an error and try to cleanup after the failure, then continue to
+      participate in the collective operation to the best of its ability.

     Java Library
     ------------
-    - JNI utility function does not handle new references.
-
-      The JNI utility function for converting reference data to string did
-      not use the new APIs. In addition to fixing that function, added new
-      java tests for using the new APIs.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/02/16, HDFFV-11212)
-
-    - The H5FArray.java class, in which virtually the entire execution time
-      is spent using the HDFNativeData method that converts from an array
-      of bytes to an array of the destination Java type.
-
-        1. Convert the entire byte array into a 1-d array of the desired type,
-           rather than performing 1 conversion per row;
-        2. Use the Java Arrays method copyOfRange to grab the section of the
-           array from (1) that is desired to be inserted into the destination array.
-
-      (PGT,ADB - 2020/12/13, HDFFV-10865)
-
-    - Added ability to test java library with VOLs.
-
-      Created a new CMake script that combines the java and vol test scripts.
-
-      (ADB - 2020/02/03, HDFFV-10996)
-
-    - Tests fail for non-English locales.
-
-      In the JUnit tests with a non-English locale, only the part before
-      the decimal comma is replaced by XXXX and this leads to a comparison
-      error. Changed the regex for the Time substitution.

     Configuration
     -------------
-    - Corrected path searched by CMake find_package command
-
-      The install path for cmake find_package files had been changed to use
-        "share/cmake"
-      for all platforms. However the trailing "hdf5" directory was not removed.
-      This "hdf5" additional directory has been removed.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/09/27)
-
-    - Corrected pkg-config compile script
-
-      It was discovered that the position of the "$@" argument for the command
-      in the compile script may fail on some platforms and configurations. The
-      position of the "$@"command argument was moved before the pkg-config sub command.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/08/30)
-
-    - Fixed CMake C++ compiler flags
-
-      A recent refactoring of the C++ configure files accidently removed the
-      file that executed the enable_language command for C++ needed by the
-      HDFCXXCompilerFlags.cmake file. Also updated the intel warnings files,
-      including adding support for windows platforms.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/08/10)
-
-    - Better support for libaec (open-source Szip library) in CMake
-
-      Implemented better support for libaec 1.0.5 (or later) library. This version
-      of libaec contains improvements for better integration with HDF5. Furthermore,
-      the variable USE_LIBAEC_STATIC has been introduced to allow to make use of
-      static version of libaec library. Use libaec_DIR or libaec_ROOT to set
-      the location in which libaec can be found.
-
-      Be aware, the Szip library of libaec 1.0.4 depends on another library within
-      libaec library. This dependency is not specified in the current CMake
-      configuration which means that one can not use the static Szip library of
-      libaec 1.0.4 when building HDF5. This has been resolved in libaec 1.0.5.
-
-      (JWSB - 2021/06/22)
-
-    - Refactor CMake configure for Fortran
-
-      The Fortran configure tests for KINDs reused a single output file that was
-      read to form the Integer and Real Kinds defines. However, if config was run
-      more then once, the CMake completed variable prevented the tests from executing
-      again and the last value saved in the file was used to create the define.
-      Creating separate files for each KIND solved the issue.
-
-      In addition the test for H5_PAC_C_MAX_REAL_PRECISION was not pulling in
-      defines for proper operation and did not define H5_PAC_C_MAX_REAL_PRECISION
-      correctly for a zero value. This was fixed by supplying the required defines.
-      In addition it was moved from the Fortran specific HDF5UseFortran.camke file
-      to the C centric ConfigureChecks.cmake file.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/06/03)
-
-    - Move emscripten flag to compile flags
-
-      The emscripten flag, -O0, was removed from target_link_libraries command
-      to the correct target_compile_options command.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/04/26 HDFFV-11083)
-
-    - Remove arbitrary warning flag groups from CMake builds
-
-      The arbitrary groups were created to reduce the quantity of warnings being
-      reported that overwhelmed testing report systems. Considerable work has
-      been accomplished to reduce the warning count and these arbitrary groups
-      are no longer needed.
-      Also the default for all warnings, HDF5_ENABLE_ALL_WARNINGS, is now ON.
-
-      Visual Studio warnings C4100, C4706, and C4127 have been moved to
-      developer warnings, HDF5_ENABLE_DEV_WARNINGS, and are disabled for normal builds.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/03/22, HDFFV-11228)
-
-    - Reclassify CMake messages, to allow new modes and --log-level option
-
-      CMake message commands have a mode argument. By default, STATUS mode
-      was chosen for any non-error message. CMake version 3.15 added additional
-      modes, NOTICE, VERBOSE, DEBUG and TRACE. All message commands with a mode
-      of STATUS were reviewed and most were reclassified as VERBOSE. The new
-      mode was protected by a check for a CMake version of at least 3.15. If CMake
-      version 3.17 or above is used, the user can use the command line option
-      of "--log-level" to further restrict which message commands are displayed.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/01/11, HDFFV-11144)
-
-    - Fixes Autotools determination of the stat struct having an st_blocks field
-
-      A missing parenthesis in an autoconf macro prevented building the test
-      code used to determine if the stat struct contains the st_blocks field.
-      Now that the test functions correctly, the H5_HAVE_STAT_ST_BLOCKS #define
-      found in H5pubconf.h will be defined correctly on both the Autotools and
-      CMake. This #define is only used in the tests and does not affect the
-      HDF5 C library.
-
-      (DER - 2021/01/07, HDFFV-11201)
-
-    - Add missing ENV variable line to hdfoptions.cmake file
-
-      Using the build options to use system SZIP/ZLIB libraries need to also
-      specify the library root directory. Setting the {library}_ROOT ENV

     Tools
     -----
-    - Changed how h5dump and h5ls identify long double.
-
-      Long double support is not consistent across platforms. Tools will always
-      identify long double as 128-bit [little/big]-endian float nn-bit precision.
-      New test file created for datasets with attributes for float, double and
-      long double. In addition any unknown integer or float datatype will now
-      also show the number of bits for precision.
-      These files are also used in the java tests.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/03/24, HDFFV-11229,HDFFV-11113)
-
-    - Fixed tools argument parsing.
-
-      Tools parsing used the length of the option from the long array to match
-      the option from the command line. This incorrectly matched a shorter long
-      name option that happened to be a subset of another long option.
-      Changed to match whole names.
-
-      (ADB - 2021/01/19, HDFFV-11106)
-
-    - The tools library was updated by standardizing the error stack process.
-
-      General sequence is:
-        h5tools_setprogname(PROGRAMNAME);
-        h5tools_setstatus(EXIT_SUCCESS);
-        h5tools_init();
-        ... process the command-line (check for error-stack enable) ...
-        h5tools_error_report();
-        ... (do work) ...
-        h5diff_exit(ret);
-
-      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-11066)
-
-    - h5diff fixed a command line parsing error.
-
-      h5diff would ignore the argument to -d (delta) if it is smaller than DBL_EPSILON.
-      The macro H5_DBL_ABS_EQUAL was removed and a direct value comparision was used.
-
-      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-10897)
-
-    - h5diff added a command line option to ignore attributes.
-
-      h5diff would ignore all objects with a supplied path if the exclude-path argument is used.
-      Adding the exclude-attribute argument will only exclude attributes, with the supplied path,
-      from comparison.
-
-      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-5935)
-
-    - h5diff added another level to the verbose argument to print filenames.
-
-      Added verbose level 3 that is level 2 plus the filenames. The levels are:
-        0 : Identical to '-v' or '--verbose'
-        1 : All level 0 information plus one-line attribute status summary
-        2 : All level 1 information plus extended attribute status report
-        3 : All level 2 information plus file names
-
-      (ADB - 2020/07/20, HDFFV-1005)
-
-    - h5repack was fixed to repack the reference attributes properly.
-
-      The code line that checks if the update of reference inside a compound
-      datatype is misplaced outside the code block loop that carries out the
-      check. In consequence, the next attribute that is not the reference
-      type was repacked again as the reference type and caused the failure of
-      repacking. The fix is to move the corresponding code line to the correct
-      code block.
-
-      (KY -2020/02/10, HDFFV-11014)

+     *
+     * 2) This is a parallel computation -- which it is if the aux_ptr
+     *    is non-null.
+     *
+     * A few points to note about this section of the code:
+     *
+     * 1) This call must occur before the call to H5C_resize_entry() since
+     *    H5AC__log_dirtied_entry() expects the target entry to be clean
+     *    on entry.
+     *
+     * 2) This code has some basic issues in terms of the number of bytes
+     *    added to the dirty bytes count.
+     *
+     *    First, it adds the initial entry size to aux_ptr->dirty_bytes,
+     *    not the final size.  Note that this code used to use the final
+     *    size, but code to support this has been removed from
+     *    H5AC__log_dirtied_entry() for reasons unknown since I wrote this
+     *    code.
+     *
+     *    As long as all ranks do the same thing here, this probably doesn't
+     *    matter much, although it will delay initiation of sync points.
+     *
+     *    A more interesting point is that this code will not increment
+     *    aux_ptr->dirty_bytes if a dirty entry is resized.  At first glance
+     *    this seems major, as particularly with the older file formats,
+     *    resizes can be quite large.  However, this is probably not an
+     *    issue either, since such resizes will be accompanied by large
+     *    amounts of dirty metadata creation in other areas -- which will
+     *    cause aux_ptr->dirty_bytes to be incremented.
+     *
+     *    The bottom line is that this code is probably OK, but the above
+     *    points should be kept in mind.
+     *
+     * One final observation:  This comment is occasioned by a bug caused
+     * by moving the call to H5AC__log_dirtied_entry() after the call to
+     * H5C_resize_entry(), and then only calling H5AC__log_dirtied_entry()
+     * if entry_ptr->is_dirty was false.
+     *
+     * Since H5C_resize_entry() marks the target entry dirty unless there
+     * is not change in size, this had the effect of not calling
+     * H5AC__log_dirtied_entry() when it should be, and corrupting
+     * the cleaned and dirtied lists used by rank 0 in the parallel
+     * version of the metadata cache.
+     *
+     * The point here is that you should be very careful when working with
+     * this code, and not modify it unless you fully understand it.

  * Information about a single chunk when performing collective filtered I/O. All
  * of the fields of one of these structs are initialized at the start of collective
- * filtered I/O in the function H5D__construct_filtered_io_info_list().
- *
- * This struct's fields are as follows:
- *
- *   index - The "Index" of the chunk in the dataset. The index of a chunk is used during
- *           the collective re-insertion of chunks into the chunk index after the collective
- *           I/O has been performed.
- *
- *   scaled - The scaled coordinates of the chunk in the dataset's file dataspace. The
- *            coordinates are used in both the collective re-allocation of space in the file
- *            and the collective re-insertion of chunks into the chunk index after the collective
- *            I/O has been performed.
+ * filtered I/O in the function H5D__mpio_collective_filtered_chunk_io_setup(). This
+ * struct's fields are as follows:
  *
- *   full_overwrite - A flag which determines whether or not a chunk needs to be read from the
- *                    file when being updated. If a chunk is being fully overwritten (the entire
- *                    extent is selected in its file dataspace), then it is not necessary to
- *                    read the chunk from the file. However, if the chunk is not being fully
- *                    overwritten, it has to be read from the file in order to update the chunk
- *                    without trashing the parts of the chunk that are not selected.
+ * index_info - A structure containing the information needed when collectively
+ *              re-inserting the chunk into the dataset's chunk index. The structure
+ *              is distributed to all ranks during the re-insertion operation. Its fields
+ *              are as follows:
  *
- *   num_writers - The total number of processors writing to this chunk. This field is used
- *                 when the new owner of a chunk is receiving messages, which contain selections in
- *                 the chunk and data to update the chunk with, from other processors which have this
- *                 chunk selected in the I/O operation. The new owner must know how many processors it
- *                 should expect messages from so that it can post an equal number of receive calls.
+ *     chunk_idx - The index of the chunk in the dataset's chunk index.
  *
- *   io_size - The total size of I/O to this chunk. This field is an accumulation of the size of
- *             I/O to the chunk from each processor which has the chunk selected and is used to
- *             determine the value for the previous full_overwrite flag.
+ *     filter_mask - A bit-mask that indicates which filters are to be applied to the
+ *                   chunk. Each filter in a chunk's filter pipeline has a bit position
+ *                   that can be masked to disable that particular filter for the chunk.
+ *                   This filter mask is saved alongside the chunk in the file.
  *
- *   buf - A pointer which serves the dual purpose of holding either the chunk data which is to be
- *         written to the file or the chunk data which has been read from the file.
+ *     need_insert - A flag which determines whether or not a chunk needs to be re-inserted into
+ *                   the chunk index after the write operation.
  *
- *   chunk_states - In the case of dataset writes only, this struct is used to track a chunk's size and
- *                  address in the file before and after the filtering operation has occurred.
+ * chunk_info - A pointer to the chunk's H5D_chunk_info_t structure, which contains useful
+ *              information like the dataspaces containing the selection in the chunk.
  *
- *                  Its fields are as follows:
+ * chunk_current - The address in the file and size of this chunk before the filtering
+ *                 operation. When reading a chunk from the file, this field is used to
+ *                 read the correct amount of bytes. It is also used when redistributing
+ *                 shared chunks among MPI ranks and as a parameter to the chunk file
+ *                 space reallocation function.
  *
- *                  chunk_current - The address in the file and size of this chunk before the filtering
- *                                  operation. When reading a chunk from the file, this field is used to
- *                                  read the correct amount of bytes. It is also used when redistributing

- *                                  space reallocation function.
+ * chunk_new - The address in the file and size of this chunk after the filtering
+ *             operation. This field is relevant when collectively re-allocating space
+ *             in the file for all of the chunks written to in the I/O operation, as
+ *             their sizes may have changed after their data has been filtered.
  *
- *                  new_chunk - The address in the file and size of this chunk after the filtering
- *                              operation. This field is relevant when collectively re-allocating space
- *                              in the file for all of the chunks written to in the I/O operation, as
- *                              their sizes may have changed after their data has been filtered.
+ * need_read - A flag which determines whether or not a chunk needs to be read from the
+ *             file. During writes, if a chunk is being fully overwritten (the entire extent
+ *             is selected in its file dataspace), then it is not necessary to read the chunk
+ *             from the file. However, if the chunk is not being fully overwritten, it has to
+ *             be read from the file in order to update the chunk without trashing the parts
+ *             of the chunk that are not selected. During reads, this field should generally
+ *             be true, but may be false if the chunk isn't allocated, for example.
  *
- *   owners - In the case of dataset writes only, this struct is used to manage which single processor
- *            will ultimately write data out to the chunk. It allows the other processors to act according
- *            to the decision and send their selection in the chunk, as well as the data they wish
- *            to update the chunk with, to the processor which is writing to the chunk.
+ * skip_filter_pline - A flag which determines whether to skip calls to the filter pipeline
+ *                     for this chunk. This flag is mostly useful for correct handling of
+ *                     partial edge chunks when the "don't filter partial edge chunks" flag
+ *                     is set on the dataset's DCPL.
  *
- *            Its fields are as follows:
+ * io_size - The total size of I/O to this chunk. This field is an accumulation of the size of
+ *           I/O to the chunk from each MPI rank which has the chunk selected and is used to
+ *           determine the value for the previous `full_overwrite` flag.
  *
- *            original_owner - The processor which originally had this chunk selected at the beginning of
- *                             the collective filtered I/O operation. This field is currently used when
- *                             redistributing shared chunks among processors.
+ * chunk_buf_size - The size in bytes of the data buffer allocated for the chunk
  *
- *            new_owner - The processor which has been selected to perform the write to this chunk.
+ * orig_owner - The MPI rank which originally had this chunk selected at the beginning of
+ *              the collective filtered I/O operation. This field is currently used when
+ *              redistributing shared chunks among MPI ranks.
  *
- *   async_info - In the case of dataset writes only, this struct is used by the owning processor of the
- *                chunk in order to manage the MPI send and receive calls made between it and all of
- *                the other processors which have this chunk selected in the I/O operation.
+ * new_owner - The MPI rank which has been selected to perform the modifications to this chunk.
  *
- *                Its fields are as follows:
+ * num_writers - The total number of MPI ranks writing to this chunk. This field is used when
+ *               the new owner of a chunk is receiving messages from other MPI ranks that
+ *               contain their selections in the chunk and the data to update the chunk with.
+ *               The new owner must know how many MPI ranks it should expect messages from so
+ *               that it can post an equal number of receive calls.
  *
- *                receive_requests_array - An array containing one MPI_Request for each of the
- *                                         asynchronous MPI receive calls the owning processor of this
- *                                         chunk makes to another processor in order to receive that
- *                                         processor's chunk modification data and selection in the chunk.
+ * buf - A pointer which serves the dual purpose of holding either the chunk data which is to be
+ *       written to the file or the chunk data which has been read from the file.
  *
- *                receive_buffer_array - An array of buffers into which the owning processor of this chunk
- *                                       will store chunk modification data and the selection in the chunk
- *                                       received from another processor.
+ * hh - A handle for hash tables provided by the uthash.h header
  *
- *                num_receive_requests - The number of entries in the receive_request_array and
- *                                       receive_buffer_array fields.

- * Function:    H5D__mpio_array_gatherv
- *
- * Purpose:     Given an array, specified in local_array, by each processor
- *              calling this function, collects each array into a single
- *              array which is then either gathered to the processor
- *              specified by root, when allgather is false, or is
- *              distributed back to all processors when allgather is true.
- *
- *              The number of entries in the array contributed by an
- *              individual processor and the size of each entry should be
- *              specified in local_array_num_entries and array_entry_size,
- *              respectively.
- *
- *              The MPI communicator to use should be specified for comm.
- *
- *              If the sort_func argument is supplied, the array is sorted
- *              before the function returns.
- *
- *              Note: if allgather is specified as true, root is ignored.
- *
- * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure

  * Function:    H5D__link_chunk_filtered_collective_io
  *
- * Purpose:     Routine for one collective IO with one MPI derived datatype
- *              to link with all filtered chunks
- *
- *              1. Construct a list of selected chunks in the collective IO
- *                 operation
- *                 A. If any chunk is being written to by more than 1
- *                    process, the process writing to the chunk which
- *                    currently has the least amount of chunks assigned
- *                    to it becomes the new owner (in the case of ties,
- *                    the lowest MPI rank becomes the new owner)
- *              2. If the operation is a write operation
- *                 A. Loop through each chunk in the operation
- *                    I. If this is not a full overwrite of the chunk
- *                       a) Read the chunk from file and pass the chunk
- *                          through the filter pipeline in reverse order
- *                          (Unfilter the chunk)
+ * Purpose:     Performs collective I/O on filtered chunks by creating a
+ *              single MPI derived datatype to link with all filtered
+ *              chunks. The general algorithm is as follows:
+ *
+ *              1. Construct a list of selected chunks in the collective
+ *                 I/O operation
+ *              2. If the operation is a read operation
+ *                 A. Ensure that the list of chunks is sorted in
+ *                    monotonically non-decreasing order of chunk offset
+ *                    in the file
+ *                 B. Participate in a collective read of chunks from
+ *                    the file
+ *                 C. Loop through each selected chunk, unfiltering it and
+ *                    scattering the data to the application's read buffer
+ *              3. If the operation is a write operation
+ *                 A. Redistribute any chunks being written by more than 1
+ *                    MPI rank, such that the chunk is only owned by 1 MPI
+ *                    rank. The rank writing to the chunk which currently
+ *                    has the least amount of chunks assigned to it becomes
+ *                    the new owner (in the case of ties, the lowest MPI
+ *                    rank becomes the new owner)
+ *                 B. Participate in a collective read of chunks from the
+ *                    file
+ *                 C. Loop through each chunk selected in the operation
+ *                    and for each chunk:
+ *                    I. If we actually read the chunk from the file (if
+ *                       a chunk is being fully overwritten, we skip
+ *                       reading it), pass the chunk through the filter
+ *                       pipeline in reverse order (unfilter the chunk)
  *                    II. Update the chunk data with the modifications from
- *                        the owning process
+ *                        the owning MPI rank
  *                    III. Receive any modification data from other
- *                         processes and update the chunk data with these
+ *                         ranks and update the chunk data with those
  *                         modifications
  *                    IV. Filter the chunk
- *                 B. Contribute the modified chunks to an array gathered
- *                    by all processes which contains the new sizes of
- *                    every chunk modified in the collective IO operation
- *                 C. All processes collectively re-allocate each chunk
- *                    from the gathered array with their new sizes after
- *                    the filter operation
- *                 D. If this process has any chunks selected in the IO
- *                    operation, create an MPI derived type for memory and
- *                    file to write out the process' selected chunks to the
- *                    file
- *                 E. Perform the collective write
- *                 F. All processes collectively re-insert each modified
+ *                 D. Contribute the modified chunks to an array gathered
+ *                    by all ranks which contains information for
+ *                    re-allocating space in the file for every chunk
+ *                    modified. Then, each rank collectively re-allocates
+ *                    each chunk from the gathered array with their new
+ *                    sizes after the filter operation
+ *                 E. Proceed with the collective write operation for all
+ *                    the modified chunks
+ *                 F. Contribute the modified chunks to an array gathered
+ *                    by all ranks which contains information for
+ *                    re-inserting every chunk modified into the chunk
+ *                    index. Then, each rank collectively re-inserts each
  *                    chunk from the gathered array into the chunk index
  *
+ *              TODO: Note that steps D. and F. here are both collective
+ *                    operations that partially share data from the
+ *                    H5D_filtered_collective_io_info_t structure. To
+ *                    try to conserve on memory a bit, the distributed
+ *                    arrays these operations create are discarded after
+ *                    each operation is performed. If memory consumption
+ *                    here proves to not be an issue, the necessary data
+ *                    for both operations could be combined into a single
+ *                    structure so that only one collective MPI operation
+ *                    is needed to carry out both operations, rather than
+ *                    two.
  *
  * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure

- *                 operation
- *                 A. If any chunk is being written to by more than 1
- *                    process, the process writing to the chunk which
- *                    currently has the least amount of chunks assigned
- *                    to it becomes the new owner (in the case of ties,
- *                    the lowest MPI rank becomes the new owner)
- *              2. If the operation is a read operation
- *                 A. Loop through each chunk in the operation
- *                    I. Read the chunk from the file
- *                    II. Unfilter the chunk
- *                    III. Scatter the read chunk data to the user's buffer
- *              3. If the operation is a write operation
- *                 A. Loop through each chunk in the operation
- *                    I. If this is not a full overwrite of the chunk
- *                       a) Read the chunk from file and pass the chunk
- *                          through the filter pipeline in reverse order
- *                          (Unfilter the chunk)
- *                    II. Update the chunk data with the modifications from
- *                        the owning process
- *                    III. Receive any modification data from other
- *                         processes and update the chunk data with these
- *                         modifications
- *                    IV. Filter the chunk
- *                    V. Contribute the chunk to an array gathered by
- *                        all processes which contains every chunk
- *                        modified in this iteration (up to one chunk
- *                        per process, some processes may not have a
- *                        selection/may have less chunks to work on than
- *                        other processes)
- *                    VI. All processes collectively re-allocate each
- *                        chunk from the gathered array with their new
- *                        sizes after the filter operation
- *                    VII. Proceed with the collective write operation
- *                        for the chunks modified on this iteration
- *                    VIII. All processes collectively re-insert each
- *                       chunk from the gathered array into the chunk
- *                       index
+ * Purpose:     Performs collective I/O on filtered chunks iteratively to
+ *              save on memory and potentially get better performance
+ *              depending on the average number of chunks per rank. While
+ *              linked-chunk I/O will construct and work on a list of all
+ *              of the chunks selected in the I/O operation at once, this
+ *              function works iteratively on a set of chunks at a time; at
+ *              most one chunk per rank per iteration.  The general
+ *              algorithm is as follows:
+ *
+ *              1. Construct a list of selected chunks in the collective
+ *                 I/O operation
+ *              2. If the operation is a read operation, loop an amount of
+ *                 times equal to the maximum number of chunks selected on
+ *                 any particular rank and on each iteration:
+ *                 A. Participate in a collective read of chunks from
+ *                    the file (ranks that run out of chunks still need
+ *                    to participate)
+ *                 B. Unfilter the chunk that was read (if any)
+ *                 C. Scatter the read chunk's data to the application's
+ *                    read buffer
+ *              3. If the operation is a write operation, redistribute any
+ *                 chunks being written to by more than 1 MPI rank, such
+ *                 that the chunk is only owned by 1 MPI rank. The rank
+ *                 writing to the chunk which currently has the least
+ *                 amount of chunks assigned to it becomes the new owner
+ *                 (in the case of ties, the lowest MPI rank becomes the
+ *                 new owner). Then, loop an amount of times equal to the
+ *                 maximum number of chunks selected on any particular
+ *                 rank and on each iteration:
+ *                 A. Participate in a collective read of chunks from
+ *                    the file (ranks that run out of chunks still need
+ *                    to participate)
+ *                    I. If we actually read a chunk from the file (if
+ *                       a chunk is being fully overwritten, we skip
+ *                       reading it), pass the chunk through the filter
+ *                       pipeline in reverse order (unfilter the chunk)
+ *                 B. Update the chunk data with the modifications from
+ *                    the owning rank
+ *                 C. Receive any modification data from other ranks and
+ *                    update the chunk data with those modifications
+ *                 D. Filter the chunk
+ *                 E. Contribute the chunk to an array gathered by
+ *                    all ranks which contains information for
+ *                    re-allocating space in the file for every chunk
+ *                    modified in this iteration (up to one chunk per
+ *                    rank; some ranks may not have a selection/may have
+ *                    less chunks to work on than other ranks). Then,
+ *                    each rank collectively re-allocates each chunk
+ *                    from the gathered array with their new sizes
+ *                    after the filter operation
+ *                 F. Proceed with the collective write operation
+ *                    for the chunks modified on this iteration
+ *                 G. Contribute the chunk to an array gathered by
+ *                    all ranks which contains information for
+ *                    re-inserting every chunk modified on this
+ *                    iteration into the chunk index. Then, each rank
+ *                    collectively re-inserts each chunk from the
+ *                    gathered array into the chunk index
+ *
+ *              TODO: Note that steps E. and G. here are both collective
+ *                    operations that partially share data from the
+ *                    H5D_filtered_collective_io_info_t structure. To
+ *                    try to conserve on memory a bit, the distributed
+ *                    arrays these operations create are discarded after
+ *                    each operation is performed. If memory consumption
+ *                    here proves to not be an issue, the necessary data
+ *                    for both operations could be combined into a single
+ *                    structure so that only one collective MPI operation
+ *                    is needed to carry out both operations, rather than
+ *                    two.
  *
  * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure

+             *    number of elements in the chunk once redistribution is finished
+             *
+             *  - Process all incoming chunk messages before doing I/O (these are currently
+             *    processed AFTER doing I/O), combine the owning rank's selection in a chunk
+             *    with the selections received from other ranks and check to see whether that
+             *    combined selection covers the entire chunk
+             *
+             * The first approach will be dangerous if the application performs an overlapping
+             * write to a chunk, as the number of selected elements can equal or exceed the
+             * number of elements in the chunk without the whole chunk selection being covered.
+             * While it might be considered erroneous for an application to do an overlapping
+             * write, we don't explicitly disallow it.
+             *
+             * The second approach contains a bit of complexity in that part of the chunk
+             * messages will be needed before doing I/O and part will be needed after doing I/O.
+             * Since modification data from chunk messages can't be applied until after any I/O
+             * is performed (otherwise, we'll overwrite any applied modification data), chunk
+             * messages are currently entirely processed after I/O. However, in order to determine
+             * if a chunk is being fully overwritten, we need the dataspace portion of the chunk
+             * messages before doing I/O. The naive way to do this is to process chunk messages
+             * twice, using just the relevant information from the message before and after I/O.
+             * The better way would be to avoid processing chunk messages twice by extracting (and
+             * keeping around) the dataspace portion of the message before I/O and processing the
+             * rest of the chunk message after I/O. Note that the dataspace portion of each chunk
+             * message is used to correctly apply chunk modification data from the message, so

- * Function:    H5D__chunk_redistribute_shared_chunks
- *
- * Purpose:     When performing a collective write on a Dataset with
- *              filters applied, this function is used to redistribute any
- *              chunks which are selected by more than one process, so as
- *              to preserve file integrity after the write by ensuring
- *              that any shared chunks are only modified by one process.
- *
- *              The current implementation follows this 3-phase process:
- *
- *              - Collect everyone's list of chunks into one large list,
- *                sort the list in increasing order of chunk offset in the
- *                file and hand the list off to rank 0
- *
- *              - Rank 0 scans the list looking for matching runs of chunk
- *                offset in the file (corresponding to a shared chunk which
- *                has been selected by more than one rank in the I/O
- *                operation) and for each shared chunk, it redistributes
- *                the chunk to the process writing to the chunk which
- *                currently has the least amount of chunks assigned to it
- *                by modifying the "new_owner" field in each of the list
- *                entries corresponding to that chunk
- *
- *              - After the chunks have been redistributed, rank 0 re-sorts
- *                the list in order of previous owner so that each rank
- *                will get back exactly the array that they contributed to
- *                the redistribution operation, with the "new_owner" field
- *                of each chunk they are modifying having possibly been
- *                modified. Rank 0 then scatters each segment of the list
- *                back to its corresponding rank
+ * Function:    H5D__mpio_redistribute_shared_chunks
  *
- * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
+ * Purpose:     When performing a parallel write on a chunked Dataset with
+ *              filters applied, we must ensure that any particular chunk
+ *              is only written to by a single MPI rank in order to avoid
+ *              potential data races on the chunk. This function is used to
+ *              redistribute (by assigning ownership to a single rank) any
+ *              chunks which are selected by more than one MPI rank.
+ *
+ *              An initial Allgather is performed to determine how many
+ *              chunks each rank has selected in the write operation and
+ *              then that number is compared against a threshold value to
+ *              determine whether chunk redistribution should be done on
+ *              MPI rank 0 only, or on all MPI ranks.

+ *
+ *              If `all_ranks_involved` is TRUE, chunk redistribution

+ *              is a relatively small number of chunks involved in order to
+ *              cut down on MPI communication overhead while increasing
+ *              total memory usage a bit.
+ *
+ *              If `all_ranks_involved` is FALSE, only rank 0 will perform
+ *              chunk redistribution. This is usually done when there is

+ *
+ *              This implementation is as follows:
+ *
+ *              - All MPI ranks send their list of selected chunks to the
+ *                ranks involved in chunk redistribution. Then, the
+ *                involved ranks sort this new list in order of chunk
+ *                index.
+ *
+ *              - The involved ranks scan the list looking for matching
+ *                runs of chunk index values (corresponding to a shared
+ *                chunk which has been selected by more than one rank in

+ *                redistribute the chunk to the MPI rank writing to the
+ *                chunk which currently has the least amount of chunks
+ *                assigned to it. This is done by modifying the "new_owner"
+ *                field in each of the list entries corresponding to that
+ *                chunk. The involved ranks then re-sort the list in order
+ *                of original chunk owner so that each rank's section of
+ *                contributed chunks is contiguous in the collective chunk
+ *                list.
+ *
+ *              - If chunk redistribution occurred on all ranks, each rank
+ *                scans through the collective chunk list to find their
+ *                contributed section of chunks and uses that to update

+ * Function:    H5D__mpio_share_chunk_modification_data
+ *
+ * Purpose:     When performing a parallel write on a chunked dataset with
+ *              filters applied, we must first ensure that any particular
+ *              chunk is only written to by a single MPI rank in order to
+ *              avoid potential data races on the chunk. Once dataset
+ *              chunks have been redistributed in a suitable manner, each
+ *              MPI rank must send its chunk data to other ranks for each
+ *              chunk it no longer owns.
+ *
+ *              The current implementation here follows the Nonblocking
+ *              Consensus algorithm described in:
+ *              http://unixer.de/publications/img/hoefler-dsde-protocols.pdf
+ *
+ *              First, each MPI rank scans through its list of selected
+ *              chunks and does the following for each chunk:
+ *
+ *               * If a chunk in the MPI rank's chunk list is still owned
+ *                 by that rank, the rank checks how many messages are
+ *                 incoming for that chunk and adds that to its running
+ *                 total. Then, the rank updates its local chunk list so
+ *                 that any previous chunk entries for chunks that are no
+ *                 longer owned by the rank get overwritten by chunk
+ *                 entries for chunks the rank still owns. Since the data
+ *                 for the chunks no longer owned will have already been
+ *                 sent, those chunks can effectively be discarded.
+ *               * If a chunk in the MPI rank's chunk list is no longer
+ *                 owned by that rank, the rank sends the data it wishes to
+ *                 update the chunk with to the MPI rank that now has
+ *                 ownership of that chunk. To do this, it encodes the
+ *                 chunk's index, its selection in the chunk and its
+ *                 modification data into a buffer and then posts a
+ *                 non-blocking MPI_Issend to the owning rank.
+ *
+ *              Once this step is complete, all MPI ranks allocate arrays
+ *              to hold chunk message receive buffers and MPI request
+ *              objects for each non-blocking receive they will post for
+ *              incoming chunk modification messages. Then, all MPI ranks
+ *              enter a loop that alternates between non-blocking
+ *              MPI_Iprobe calls to probe for incoming messages and
+ *              MPI_Testall calls to see if all send requests have
+ *              completed. As chunk modification messages arrive,
+ *              non-blocking MPI_Irecv calls will be posted for each
+ *              message.
+ *
+ *              Once all send requests have completed, an MPI_Ibarrier is
+ *              posted and the loop then alternates between MPI_Iprobe
+ *              calls and MPI_Test calls to check if all ranks have reached
+ *              the non-blocking barrier. Once all ranks have reached the
+ *              barrier, processing can move on to updating the selected
+ *              chunks that are owned in the operation.
+ *
+ *              Any chunk messages that were received from other ranks
+ *              will be returned through the `chunk_msg_bufs` array and
+ *              `chunk_msg_bufs_len` will be set appropriately.
+ *
+ *              NOTE: The use of non-blocking sends and receives of chunk
+ *                    data here may contribute to large amounts of memory
+ *                    usage/MPI request overhead if the number of shared
+ *                    chunks is high. If this becomes a problem, it may be
+ *                    useful to split the message receiving loop away so
+ *                    that chunk modification messages can be received and
+ *                    processed immediately (MPI_Recv) using a single chunk
+ *                    message buffer. However, it's possible this may
+ *                    degrade performance since the chunk message sends
+ *                    are synchronous (MPI_Issend) in the Nonblocking
+ *                    Consensus algorithm.
+ *
+ * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure

- *              datatype contains the offsets in the file and the locations
- *              of the filtered chunk data buffers.
+ * Purpose:     Constructs MPI derived datatypes for communicating the info
+ *              from a H5D_filtered_collective_io_info_t structure that is
+ *              necessary for re-allocating file space during a collective
+ *              write of filtered chunks.
  *
- * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
+ *              The datatype returned through `contig_type` has an extent
+ *              equal to the size of an H5D_chunk_alloc_info_t structure
+ *              and is suitable for communicating that structure type.

+ *              equal to the size of an H5D_filtered_collective_io_info_t
+ *              structure. This makes it suitable for sending an array of
+ *              those structures, while extracting out just the info
+ *              necessary for the chunk file space reallocation operation
+ *              during communication.

+ *              according to the selections in the `dst_space` and
+ *              `src_space` dataspaces.
+ *
+ * Note:        This routine is [basically] the same as H5D__select_io,
+ *              with the only difference being that the readvv/writevv
+ *              calls are exchanged for H5VM_memcpyvv calls. Changes should
+ *              be made to both routines.
+ *
+ * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure

+ *              of the receive buffer on the caller's behalf. This
+ *              routine's parameters are as follows:
+ *
+ *              `send_buf` - The buffer that data will be sent from for
+ *                           the calling MPI rank. Analogous to
+ *                           MPI_(All)gatherv's `sendbuf` parameter.
+ *
+ *              `send_count` - The number of `send_type` elements in the
+ *                             send buffer. Analogous to MPI_(All)gatherv's
+ *                             `sendcount` parameter.
+ *
+ *              `send_type` - The MPI Datatype of the elements in the send
+ *                            buffer. Analogous to MPI_(All)gatherv's
+ *                            `sendtype` parameter.
+ *
+ *              `recv_counts` - An array containing the number of elements
+ *                              to be received from each MPI rank.
+ *                              Analogous to MPI_(All)gatherv's `recvcount`
+ *                              parameter.
+ *
+ *              `displacements` - An array containing the displacements
+ *                                in the receive buffer where data from
+ *                                each MPI rank should be placed. Analogous
+ *                                to MPI_(All)gatherv's `displs` parameter.
+ *
+ *              `recv_type` - The MPI Datatype of the elements in the
+ *                            receive buffer. Analogous to
+ *                            MPI_(All)gatherv's `recvtype` parameter.
+ *
+ *              `allgather` - Specifies whether the gather operation to be
+ *                            performed should be MPI_Allgatherv (TRUE) or
+ *                            MPI_Gatherv (FALSE).
+ *
+ *              `root` - For MPI_Gatherv operations, specifies the rank
+ *                       that will receive the data sent by other ranks.
+ *                       Analogous to MPI_Gatherv's `root` parameter. For
+ *                       MPI_Allgatherv operations, this parameter is
+ *                       ignored.
+ *
+ *              `comm` - Specifies the MPI Communicator for the operation.
+ *                       Analogous to MPI_(All)gatherv's `comm` parameter.
+ *
+ *              `mpi_rank` - Specifies the calling rank's rank value, as
+ *                           obtained by calling MPI_Comm_rank on the
+ *                           MPI Communicator `comm`.
+ *
+ *              `mpi_size` - Specifies the MPI Communicator size, as

+ *                           MPI Communicator `comm`.
+ *
+ *              `out_buf` - Resulting buffer that is allocated and
+ *                          returned to the caller after data has been
+ *                          gathered into it. Returned only to the rank

+ *
+ *              `out_buf_num_entries` - The number of elements in the

  * collective metadata reads being made only by process 0 in H5D__sort_chunk().
  *
  * NOTE: Due to the way that the threshold value which pertains to this test
- * is currently calculated within HDF5, there are several conditions that this
- * test must maintain. Refer to the function H5D__sort_chunk in H5Dmpio.c for
- * a better idea of why.
+ * is currently calculated within HDF5, the following two conditions must be
+ * true to trigger the issue:
  *
- * Condition 1: We need to make sure that the test always selects every single
- * chunk in the dataset. It is fine if the selection is split up among multiple
- * ranks, but their combined selection must cover the whole dataset.
+ * Condition 1: A certain threshold ratio must be met in order to have HDF5
+ * obtain all chunk addresses collectively inside H5D__sort_chunk(). This is
+ * given by the following:
  *
- * Condition 2: The number of chunks in the dataset divided by the number of MPI
- * ranks must exceed or equal 10000. In other words, each MPI rank must be
- * responsible for 10000 or more unique chunks.
+ *     (sum_chunk * 100) / (dataset_nchunks * mpi_size) >= 30%
  *
- * Condition 3: This test will currently only be reliably reproducable for 2 or 3
- * MPI ranks. The threshold value calculated reduces to a constant 100 / mpi_size,
- * and is compared against a default value of 30%.
+ * where:
+ *     * `sum_chunk` is the combined sum of the number of chunks selected in
+ *       the dataset by all ranks (chunks selected by more than one rank count
+ *       individually toward the sum for each rank selecting that chunk)
+ *     * `dataset_nchunks` is the number of chunks in the dataset (selected
+ *       or not)
+ *     * `mpi_size` is the size of the MPI Communicator
+ *
+ * Condition 2: `sum_chunk` divided by `mpi_size` must exceed or equal a certain
+ * threshold (as of this writing, 10000).
+ *
+ * To satisfy both these conditions, we #define a macro,
+ * LINK_CHUNK_IO_SORT_CHUNK_ISSUE_COLL_THRESH_NUM, which corresponds to the
+ * value of the H5D_ALL_CHUNK_ADDR_THRES_COL_NUM macro in H5Dmpio.c (the
+ * 10000 threshold from condition 2). We then create a dataset of that many
+ * chunks and have each MPI rank write to and read from a piece of every single
+ * chunk in the dataset. This ensures chunk utilization is the max possible
+ * and exceeds our 30% target ratio, while always exactly matching the numeric
+ * chunk threshold value of condition 2.
  *
  * Failure in this test may either cause a hang, or, due to how the MPI calls
  * pertaining to this issue might mistakenly match up, may cause an MPI error

- * Tests parallel read of filtered data from shared

- *
- * The MAINPROCESS rank will first write out all of the
- * data to the dataset. Then, each rank reads a part of
- * each chunk of the dataset and contributes its piece
- * to a global buffer that is checked for consistency.
+ * Tests that filtered and unfiltered partial edge chunks can be
+ * written to and read from correctly in parallel when only one MPI
+ * rank writes to a particular partial edge chunk in the dataset.
  *
- * Programmer: Jordan Henderson
- *             05/17/2018
+ * The dataset contains partial edge chunks in the second dimension.
+ * Each MPI rank selects a hyperslab in the shape of a single chunk
+ * that is offset to cover the whole edge chunk and part of the
+ * full chunk next to the edge chunk.

+.SH NAME
+h5dwalk \- Provides a means of extending HDF5 tools by using parallelism on groups of files.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+h5dwalk [OPTIONS] -T h5tool [H5TOOL_options...] 
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+h5dwalk utilizes the mpiFileUtils library to invoke a selected HDF5 tool on a collection of files.  The mpiFileUtils library provides the facilities to walk directory trees and provide a selection of files contained therein.  This selection can be filtered in various ways.  At present, h5dwalk filters the original file selection to include only HDF5 formatted files.  The resulting collection or collections can be utilized as the file inputs to the selected h5tool.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B \-h   
+or  
+.B \-\-help
+Print a usage message and exit. 
+.TP
+.B \-i   
+or  
+.B \-\-input filename
+Read command input from a file.  Not yet implemented.
+.TP
+.B \-o   
+or  
+.B \-\-output filename
+Captures the hdf5 tool output into a named file. 
+.TP
+.B \-l   
+or  
+.B \-\-log [file]
+Captures hdf5 tool output into a individual log files. If an optional file (directory) is specified, then output from all tool instances will be written in the given file directory.  Without the optional filename, each tool instance output will be captured in a new log file whose name is associated with the hdf5 tool that was run and is written in the current working directory.
+.TP
+.B \-E   
+or  
+.B \-\-error [file]
+Show all HDF5 error reporting. Behavior is similar to --log, i.e. errors can either be logged in a single named file or in individual tool specific files. Not yet implemented.
+.TP
+.B \-T   
+or  
+.B \-\-tool hdf5_tool
+Specifies the hdf5 tool that should be invoked for each file in a collection of files.  The collection consists of individual HDF5 files found by walking a specified directory tree which is used in place of the normal tool filename argument.  The '-T' option should appear on the command line just prior to the HDF5 tool argument options.
