/****************************************************************************
 *
 * structure H5C_cache_entry_t
 *
 * Instances of the H5C_cache_entry_t structure are used to store cache 
 * entries in a hash table and sometimes in a skip list.  
 * See H5SL.c for the particulars of the skip list.
 *
 * In typical application, this structure is the first field in a 
 * structure to be cached.  For historical reasons, the external module
 * is responsible for managing the is_dirty field.  All other fields are
 * managed by the cache.
 *
 * The fields of this structure are discussed individually below:
 *
 *						JRM - 4/26/04
 *
 * addr:	Base address of the cache entry on disk.
 *
 * size:	Length of the cache entry on disk.  Note that unlike normal
 *		caches, the entries in this cache are of variable length.
 *		The entries should never overlap, and when we do writebacks,
 *		we will want to writeback adjacent entries where possible.
 *
 *		NB: At present, entries need not be contiguous on disk.  Until
 *		    we fix this, we can't do much with writing back adjacent
 *		    entries.
 *
 * type:	Pointer to the instance of H5C_class_t containing pointers
 *		to the methods for cache entries of the current type.  This
 *		field should be NULL when the instance of H5C_cache_entry_t
 *		is not in use.
 *
 *		The name is not particularly descriptive, but is retained
 *		to avoid changes in existing code.
 *
 * is_dirty:	Boolean flag indicating whether the contents of the cache
 *		entry has been modified since the last time it was written
 *		to disk.
 *
 *		NOTE: For historical reasons, this field is not maintained
 *		      by the cache.  Instead, the module using the cache
 *		      sets this flag when it modifies the entry, and the 
 *		      flush and clear functions supplied by that module
 *		      reset the dirty when appropriate.
 *
 *		      This is a bit quirky, so we may want to change this
 *		      someday.  However it will require a change in the 
 *		      cache interface.
 *
 * is_protected: Boolean flag indicating whether this entry is protected
 *		(or locked, to use more conventional terms).  When it is
 *		protected, the entry cannot be flushed or accessed until
 *		it is unprotected (or unlocked -- again to use more
 *		conventional terms).
 *
 *		Note that protected entries are removed from the LRU lists
 *		and inserted on the protected list.
 *
 * in_slist:	Boolean flag indicating whether the entry is in the skip list
 *		As a general rule, entries are placed in the list when they
 *              are marked dirty.  However they may remain in the list after
 *              being flushed.
 *
 * flush_marker:  Boolean flag indicating that the entry is to be flushed
 *		the next time H5C_flush_cache() is called with the 
 *		H5AC__FLUSH_MARKED_ENTRIES_FLAG.  The flag is reset when
 *		the entry is flushed for whatever reason.
 *
 *
 * Fields supporting the hash table:
 *
 * Fields in the cache are indexed by a more or less conventional hash table.
 * If there are multiple entries in any hash bin, they are stored in a doubly
 * linked list.
 *
 * ht_next:	Next pointer used by the hash table to store multiple
 *		entries in a single hash bin.  This field points to the
 *		next entry in the doubly linked list of entries in the 
 *		hash bin, or NULL if there is no next entry.
 *
 * ht_prev:     Prev pointer used by the hash table to store multiple
 *              entries in a single hash bin.  This field points to the
 *              previous entry in the doubly linked list of entries in 
 *		the hash bin, or NULL if there is no previuos entry.
 *
 *
 * Fields supporting replacement policies:
 *
 * The cache must have a replacement policy, and it will usually be 
 * necessary for this structure to contain fields supporting that policy.
 *
 * While there has been interest in several replacement policies for 
 * this cache, the initial development schedule is tight.  Thus I have
 * elected to support only a modified LRU policy for the first cut.
 *
 * When additional replacement policies are added, the fields in this
 * section will be used in different ways or not at all.  Thus the 
 * documentation of these fields is repeated for each replacement policy.
 * 
 * Modified LRU:
 * 
 * When operating in parallel mode, we must ensure that a read does not
 * cause a write.  If it does, the process will hang, as the write will
 * be collective and the other processes will not know to participate.
 *
 * To deal with this issue, I have modified the usual LRU policy by adding
 * clean and dirty LRU lists to the usual LRU list.  When reading in 
 * parallel mode, we evict from the clean LRU list only.  This implies
 * that we must try to ensure that the clean LRU list is reasonably well 
 * stocked.  See the comments on H5C_t in H5Cpkg.h for more details.
 * 
 * Note that even if we start with a completely clean cache, a sequence
 * of protects without unprotects can empty the clean LRU list.  In this
 * case, the cache must grow temporarily.  At the next write, we will 
 * attempt to evict enough entries to get the cache down to its nominal
 * maximum size.
 *
 * The use of the replacement policy fields under the Modified LRU policy
 * is discussed below:
 *
 * next:	Next pointer in either the LRU or the protected list, 
 *		depending on the current value of protected.  If there 
 *		is no next entry on the list, this field should be set 
 *		to NULL.
 *
 * prev:	Prev pointer in either the LRU or the protected list, 
 *		depending on the current value of protected.  If there 
 *		is no previous entry on the list, this field should be 
 *		set to NULL.
 *
 * aux_next:	Next pointer on either the clean or dirty LRU lists.
 *		This entry should be NULL when protected is true.  When
 *		protected is false, and dirty is true, it should point
 *		to the next item on the dirty LRU list.  When protected 
 *		is false, and dirty is false, it should point to the
 *		next item on the clean LRU list.  In either case, when
 *		there is no next item, it should be NULL.
 *
 * aux_prev:	Previous pointer on either the clean or dirty LRU lists.
 *		This entry should be NULL when protected is true.  When
 *		protected is false, and dirty is true, it should point
 *		to the previous item on the dirty LRU list.  When protected 
 *		is false, and dirty is false, it should point to the
 *		previous item on the clean LRU list.  In either case, when
 *		there is no previous item, it should be NULL.
 *
 *
 * Cache entry stats collection fields:
 *
 * These fields should only be compiled in when both H5C_COLLECT_CACHE_STATS
 * and H5C_COLLECT_CACHE_ENTRY_STATS are true.  When present, they allow
 * collection of statistics on individual cache entries.  
 *
 * accesses:	int32_t containing the number of times this cache entry has
 *		been referenced in its lifetime.
 *
 * clears:	int32_t containing the number of times this cache entry has
 *              been cleared in its life time.
 *
 * flushes:	int32_t containing the number of times this cache entry has
 *              been flushed to file in its life time.

 *
 * structure H5C_auto_size_ctl_t
 *
 * Instances of H5C_auto_size_ctl_t are used to get and set the control
 * fields for automatic cache re-sizing.  
 *
 * The fields of the structure are discussed individually below:
 *
 * version: Integer field containing the version number of this version 
 *	of the H5C_auto_size_ctl_t structure.  Any instance of 
 *	H5C_auto_size_ctl_t passed to the cache must have a known 
 *	version number, or an error will be flagged.
 *
 * report_fcn:  Pointer to the function that is to be called to report
 *      activities each time the auto cache resize code is executed.  If the
 *	field is NULL, no call is made.
 *
 *	If the field is not NULL, it must contain the address of a function
 *	of type H5C_auto_resize_report_fcn.
 *
 * set_initial_size: Boolean flag indicating whether the size of the 
 *	initial size of the cache is to be set to the value given in 
 *	the initial_size field.  If set_initial_size is FALSE, the 
 *	initial_size field is ignored.
 *
 * initial_size: If enabled, this field contain the size the cache is
 *	to be set to upon receipt of this structure.  Needless to say,
 *	initial_size must lie in the closed interval [min_size, max_size].
 *
 * min_clean_fraction: double in the range 0 to 1 indicating the fraction
 *	of the cache that is to be kept clean.  This field is only used
 *	in parallel mode.  Typical values are 0.1 to 0.5.
 *
 * max_size: Maximum size to which the cache can be adjusted.  The 
 *	supplied value must fall in the closed interval
 *	[MIN_MAX_CACHE_SIZE, MAX_MAX_CACHE_SIZE].  Also, max_size must 
 *	be greater than or equal to min_size.
 *
 * min_size: Minimum size to which the cache can be adjusted.  The
 *      supplied value must fall in the closed interval
 *      [MIN_MAX_CACHE_SIZE, MAX_MAX_CACHE_SIZE].  Also, min_size must 
 *	be less than or equal to max_size.
 *
 * epoch_length: Number of accesses on the cache over which to collect
 *	hit rate stats before running the automatic cache resize code,
 *      if it is enabled.  
 *	
 *	At the end of an epoch, we discard prior hit rate data and start 
 * 	collecting afresh.  The epoch_length must lie in the closed
 *	interval [H5C__MIN_AR_EPOCH_LENGTH, H5C__MAX_AR_EPOCH_LENGTH].
 *
 *
 * Cache size increase control fields:
 *
 * incr_mode: Instance of the H5C_cache_incr_mode enumerated type whose
 *	value indicates how we determine whether the cache size should be
 *	increased.  At present there are two possible values:
 *
 *	H5C_incr__off:	Don't attempt to increase the size of the cache 
 *		automatically.
 *
 *		When this increment mode is selected, the remaining fields
 *		in the cache size increase section ar ignored.
 *
 *	H5C_incr__threshold: Attempt to increase the size of the cache 
 *		whenever the average hit rate over the last epoch drops 
 *		below the value supplied in the lower_hr_threshold 
 *		field.
 *
 *		Note that this attempt will fail if the cache is already
 *		at its maximum size, or if the cache is not already using
 *		all available space.
 *
 * lower_hr_threshold: Lower hit rate threshold.  If the increment mode
 *	(incr_mode) is H5C_incr__threshold and the hit rate drops below the 
 *	value supplied in this field in an epoch, increment the cache size by 
 *	size_increment.  Note that cache size may not be incremented above 
 *	max_size, and that the increment may be further restricted by the
 *	max_increment field if it is enabled.
 *
 *	When enabled, this field must contain a value in the range [0.0, 1.0].
 *	Depending on the incr_mode selected, it may also have to be less than
 *	upper_hr_threshold.
 *
 * increment:  Double containing the multiplier used to derive the new
 *	cache size from the old if a cache size increment is triggered.
 *      The increment must be greater than 1.0, and should not exceed 2.0.
 *
 *	The new cache size is obtained by multiplying the current max cache
 *	size by the increment, and then clamping to max_size and to stay 
 *	within the max_increment as necessary.
 *
 * apply_max_increment:  Boolean flag indicating whether the max_increment
 *	field should be used to limit the maximum cache size increment.
 *
 * max_increment: If enabled by the apply_max_increment field described 
 *	above, this field contains the maximum number of bytes by which the 
 *	cache size can be increased in a single re-size.  
 *
 *
 * Cache size decrease control fields:
 *
 * decr_mode: Instance of the H5C_cache_decr_mode enumerated type whose 
 *	value indicates how we determine whether the cache size should be
 *	decreased.  At present there are four possibilities.
 *
 *	H5C_decr__off:	Don't attempt to decrease the size of the cache 
 *		automatically.
 *
 *		When this increment mode is selected, the remaining fields
 *		in the cache size decrease section are ignored.
 *
 *	H5C_decr__threshold: Attempt to decrease the size of the cache 
 *		whenever the average hit rate over the last epoch rises 
 *		above the value	supplied in the upper_hr_threshold 
 *		field.
 *
 *	H5C_decr__age_out:  At the end of each epoch, search the cache for 
 *		entries that have not been accessed for at least the number 
 *		of epochs specified in the epochs_before_eviction field, and
 *		evict these entries.  Conceptually, the maximum cache size 
 *		is then decreased to match the new actual cache size.  However,
 *		this reduction may be modified by the min_size, the 
 *		max_decrement, and/or the empty_reserve.
 *
 *	H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold:  Same as age_out, but we only 
 *		attempt to reduce the cache size when the hit rate observed 
 *		over the last epoch exceeds the value provided in the 
 *		upper_hr_threshold field.
 *
 * upper_hr_threshold: Upper hit rate threshold.  The use of this field
 *	varies according to the current decr_mode:
 *
 *	H5C_decr__off or H5C_decr__age_out:  The value of this field is 
 *		ignored.
 *
 *	H5C_decr__threshold:  If the hit rate exceeds this threshold in any 
 *		epoch, attempt to decrement the cache size by size_decrement.
 *
 *		Note that cache size may not be decremented below min_size.
 *
 *		Note also that if the upper_threshold is 1.0, the cache size 
 *		will never be reduced.
 *
 *	H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold:  If the hit rate exceeds this 
 *		threshold in any epoch, attempt to reduce the cache size 
 *		by evicting entries that have not been accessed for more 
 *		than the specified number of epochs.
 *
 * decrement: This field is only used when the decr_mode is 
 *	H5C_decr__threshold.
 *
 *	The field is a double containing the multiplier used to derive the 
 *	new cache size from the old if a cache size decrement is triggered.  
 *	The decrement must be in the range 0.0 (in which case the cache will
 *      try to contract to its minimum size) to 1.0 (in which case the 
 *      cache will never shrink).
 *
 * apply_max_decrement:  Boolean flag used to determine whether decrements
 *	in cache size are to be limited by the max_decrement field.
 *
 * max_decrement: Maximum number of bytes by which the cache size can be
 *	decreased in a single re-size.  Note that decrements may also be
 *	restricted by the min_size of the cache, and (in age out modes) by
 *	the empty_reserve field.
 *
 * epochs_before_eviction:  Integer field used in H5C_decr__age_out and 
 *	H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold decrement modes.
 *
 *	This field contains the number of epochs an entry must remain 
 *	unaccessed before it is evicted in an attempt to reduce the 
 *	cache size.  If applicable, this field must lie in the range
 *	[1, H5C__MAX_EPOCH_MARKERS].
 *
 * apply_empty_reserve:  Boolean field controlling whether the empty_reserve
 *	field is to be used in computing the new cache size when the 
 *	decr_mode is H5C_decr__age_out or H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold.
 *
 * empty_reserve:  To avoid a constant racheting down of cache size by small
 *	amounts in the H5C_decr__age_out and H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold 
 *	modes, this field allows one to require that any cache size 
 *	reductions leave the specified fraction of unused space in the cache.
 *
 *	The value of this field must be in the range [0.0, 1.0].  I would
 *	expect typical values to be in the range of 0.01 to 0.1.
