 *                    All rights reserved.
 *
 * Programmer: 
 *             January 30, 1998
 *
 * Purpose:    This is the MPI2 I/O subclass of H5Flow.
 *
 * Problems and limitations:
 *
 *	H5F_mpio_access
 *		- Since there is no "access" function for MPI-IO files
 *		  we open (i.e., MPI_File_open) the file to see if it exists
 *		  and to infer the access flags.  If the file is opened,
 *		  we close it without reading or writing it.
 *		- It is not possible within MPI-IO to determine whether or not
 *		  the names "file1" and "file2" refer to the same physical file
 *		  (at least not without writing one and reading the other).
 *		  So we do what H5F_core_open() does: return a bogus device
 *		  number and a unique inode number.
 *		  This has the side effect that calling H5Fopen() twice
 *		  with the same name really does open the file twice
 *		  and the two handles don't communicate with each other,
 *		  resulting in trashing the file.  It also runs the (very
 *		  small) risk of having two unrelated names be seen as the
 *		  same file.
 *
 *	H5F_mpio_open
 *		- "unique" key treated same as in H5F_mpio_access
 *
 *	H5F_mpio_read & H5F_mpio_write
 *		- Eventually these should choose collective or independent i/o
 *		  based on a parameter that is passed down to it from H5Dwrite,
 *		  rather than the access_parms (which are fixed at the open).
 *
 *	H5F_mpio_read
 *		- One implementation of MPI/MPI-IO causes MPI_Get_count
 *		  to return (incorrectly) a negative count.
 *		  I added code to detect this, and a kludge to pretend
 *		  that the number of bytes read is always equal to the number
 *		  requested.  This kluge is activated by #ifdef MPI_KLUGE0202.
 *

/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Function:    H5F_mpio_access
 *
 * Purpose:     Determines if an MPI-IO file can be accessed in a particular
 *		way.  The access modes for a file are the same as those of
 *		access(2), namely
 *
 *              F_OK:   determines if the MPI-IO file exists
 *			(in fact, we can only determine that the file can be
 *			 opened for reading or writing, or neither)
 *
 *              R_OK:   determines if the MPI-IO file is readable
 *
 *              W_OK:   determines if the MPI-IO file is writable.
 *
 * Warning:	It is not possible within MPI-IO to determine whether or not
 *		the names "file1" and "file2" refer to the same physical fileC
 *		(at least not without writing one and reading the other).
 *		So we do what H5F_core_open() does: return a bogus device number
 *		and a unique inode number.
 *		This has the side effect that calling H5Fopen() twice
 *		with the same name really does open the file twice
 *		and the two handles don't communicate with each other,
 *		resulting in trashing the file.  It also runs the (very small)
 *		risk of having two unrelated names be seen as the same file.
 *
 *		Must call this routine collectively since it collectively
 *		calls MPI_File_open with the communicator in access_parms.
 *
 * Return:      Success:        TRUE or FALSE.  If TRUE, then KEY is
 *                              initialized with data that makes this file
 *                              unique (same value as H5F_low_open).
 *
 *              Failure:        FAIL, KEY is undefined.
 *
 * Programmer:  
 *              January 30, 1998
 *
 * Modifications:
 *
 * 	Robb Matzke, 18 Feb 1998
 *	Added the ACCESS_PARMS argument.
 *
 * 	June 9, 1998	Albert Cheng
 *	Instead of opening the file with COMM_SELF (which results in
 *	racing condition in routine that calls it), open it with the
 *	communicator in access_parms.  (This assumes this access call
 *	must be called collectively.)

 * Function:    H5F_mpio_write
 *
 * Purpose:     Depending on a field in access params, either:
 *		- Writes SIZE bytes from the beginning of BUF into file LF
 *                at file address ADDR.
 *		- Uses the (potentially complex) file and buffer types
 *                to effect the transfer.
 *		  This can allow MPI to coalesce requests from
 *		  different processes (collective or independent).
 *
 *		rky 980828
 *              If the allsame flag is set, we assume that all the procs
 *		in the relevant MPI communicator will write identical data
 *		at identical offsets in the file, so only proc 0 will write,
 *		and all other procs will wait for p0 to finish.
 *		This is useful for writing metadata, for example.
 *		Note that we don't _check_ that the data is identical.
 *		ALso, the mechanism we use to eliminate the redundant writes
 *		is by requiring a call to H5F_mpio_tas_allsame before the write,
 *		which is rather klugey.
 *		Would it be better to pass a parameter to low-level writes
 *		like H5F_block_write and H5F_low_write, instead?  Or...???
 *		Also, when I created this mechanism I wanted to minimize
 *		the difference in behavior between the old way of doing things
 *		(i.e., all procs write) and the new way, so the writes are
 *		eliminated at the very lowest level, here in H5F_mpio_write.
 *		It may be better to rethink that, and short-circuit the writes
 *		at a higher level (e.g., at the points in the code where
 *		H5F_mpio_tas_allsame is called).
 *
 * Errors:
 *              IO        WRITEERROR    MPI_File_write_at failed. 
 *
 * Return:      Non-negative on success/Negative on failure
 *		(use_types and old_use_types in the access params are altered)
 *
 * Programmer:  
 *              January 30, 1998

 * Modifications:

 *
 * 	rky, 10 Apr 1998
 *	Call independent or collective MPI write, based on ACCESS_PARMS.
