 *            If a file being created is already opened, by either a previous

 *            If the library detects that the file is already opened,

 *            cases, the open calls must use the same flags argument and the

 *            property setting (see the external link discussion below and
 *            H5Pset_fclose_degree()).\n
 *            In some cases, such as files on a local Unix file system, the

 *            multiple opens of the same physical file. In such cases, HDF5
 *            will treat the file identifiers as though they are accessing
 *            different files and will be unable to maintain coherent access.
 *            Errors are likely to result in these cases. While unlikely, the

 * \note   On a system that is not atomic, the library might possibly read inconsistent

 *         operations for an HDF5 file. Upon encountering such situations, the library
 *         will try reading the metadata again for a set number of times to attempt to
 *         obtain consistent data. The maximum number of read attempts used by the library
 *         will be either the value set via H5Pset_metadata_read_attempts() or the library
 *         default value when a value is not set.\n
 *         When the current number of metadata read attempts used in the library is unable
 *         to remedy the reading of inconsistent metadata on a system, the user can assess
 *         the information obtained via this routine to derive a different maximum value.

 * \returns \herr_t
 *
 * \par Motivation
 * H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() is applicable only in parallel environments using MPI I/O.
 * The function is one of the tools used to ensure sequential consistency. This means
 * that a set of operations will behave as though they were performed in a serial
 * order consistent with the program order.
 *
 * \details
 * \parblock
 * H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() sets MPI consistency semantics for data access to the file,
 * \p file_id.
 *
 * If \p flag is set to \c 1, all file access operations will appear atomic, guaranteeing
 * sequential consistency. If \p flag is set to \c 0, enforcement of atomic file access
 * will be turned off.
 *
 * H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() is a collective function and all participating processes must
 * pass the same values for \p file_id and \p flag.
 *
 * This function is available only when the HDF5 library is configured with parallel support
 * (\Code{--enable-parallel}). It is useful only when used with the #H5FD_MPIO driver
 * (see H5Pset_fapl_mpio()).
 * \endparblock
 *
 * \attention
 * \parblock
 * H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() calls \Code{MPI_File_set_atomicity} underneath and is not supported
 * if the execution platform does not support \Code{MPI_File_set_atomicity}. When it is
 * supported and used, the performance of data access operations may drop significantly.
 *
 * In certain scenarios, even when \Code{MPI_File_set_atomicity} is supported, setting
 * atomicity with H5Fset_mpi_atomicity() and \p flag set to 1 does not always yield
 * strictly atomic updates. For example, some H5Dwrite() calls translate to multiple
 * \Code{MPI_File_write_at} calls. This happens in all cases where the high-level file
 * access routine translates to multiple lower level file access routines.
 * The following scenarios will raise this issue:
 * \li Non-contiguous file access using independent I/O
 * \li Partial collective I/O using chunked access
 * \li Collective I/O using filters or when data conversion is required
 *
 * This issue arises because MPI atomicity is a matter of MPI file access operations rather
 * than HDF5 access operations. But the user is normally seeking atomicity at the HDF5 level.
 * To accomplish this, the application must set a barrier after a write, H5Dwrite(), but before
 * the next read, H5Dread(), in addition to calling H5Fset_mpi_atomicity().The barrier will
 * guarantee that all underlying write operations execute atomically before the read
 * operations starts. This ensures additional ordering semantics and will normally produce
 * the desired behavior.
