/*-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * Function:	H5HF__cache_dblock_pre_serialize
 *
 * Purpose:	In principle, the purpose of this function is to determine
 *		the size and location of the disk image of the target direct 
 *		block.  In this case, the uncompressed size of the block is
 *		fixed, but since the direct block could be compressed, 
 *		we may need to compute and report the compressed size.
 *
 *		This is a bit sticky in the case of a direct block when I/O 
 *		filters are enabled, as the size of the compressed version
 *		of the on disk image is not known until the direct block has 
 *		been run through the filters.  Further, the location of the 
 *		on disk image may change if the compressed size of the image 
 *		changes as well.
 *
 *		To complicate matters further, the direct block may have been 
 *		initially allocated in temporary (AKA imaginary) file space. 
 *		In this case, we must relocate the direct block's on-disk 
 *		image to "real" file space regardless of whether it has changed 
 *		size.
 *
 *		One simplifying factor is the direct block's "blk" field, 
 *		which contains a pointer to a buffer which (with the exception
 *		of a small header) contains the on disk image in uncompressed 
 *		form.
 *
 *		To square this particular circle, this function does 
 *		everything the serialize function usually does, with the 
 *		exception of copying the image into the image buffer provided 
 *		to the serialize function by the metadata cache.  The data to 
 *		copy is provided to the serialize function in a buffer pointed
 *		to by the write_buf field.
 *
 *		If I/O filters are enabled, on exit, 
 *		H5HF__cache_dblock_pre_serialize() sets the write_buf field to 
 *		point to a buffer containing the filtered image of the direct
 *		block.  The serialize function should free this block, and set
 *		the write_buf field to NULL after copying it into the image 
 *		buffer provided by the metadata cache.
 *
 *		If I/O filters are not enabled, this function prepares 
 *		the buffer pointed to by the blk field for copying to the 
 *		image buffer provided by the metadata cache, and sets the 
 *		write_buf field equal to the blk field.  In this case, the 
 *		serialize function should simply set the write_buf field to 
 *		NULL after copying the direct block image into the image 
 *		buffer.
 *
 *		In both of the above cases, the length of the buffer pointed 
 *		to by write_buf is provided in the write_len field.  This 
 *		field must contain 0 on entry to this function, and should 
 *		be set back to 0 at the end of the serialize function.
 *
 * Return:	Success:	SUCCEED
 *		Failure:	FAIL

 *		TRUE if this is the case, and to FALSE otherwise.
 *
 *		Update -- 8/24/15
 *
 *		With the advent of the metadata cache image feature, it is
 *		possible for the pre-serialize and serialize calls to be
 *		invoked outside of a flush.  While this serialization
 *		observes flush dependencies for the order of serialization,
 *		the entries are not written to disk, and hence dirty entries
 *		remain dirty.
 *
 *		To address this, updated the sanity checks in this function
 *		to treat entries whose images are up to date as clean if 
 *		a cache serialization is in progress.
 *
 *		Update -- 9/29/16
 *
 *		The implementation of flush dependencies has been changed.
 *		Prior to this change, a flush dependency parent could be 
 *		flushed if and only if all its flush dependency descendants
 *		were clean.  In the new definition, a flush dependency 
 *		parent can be flushed if all its immediate flush dependency
 *		children are clean, regardless of any other dirty 
 *		descendants.  
 *
 *		Further, metadata cache entries are now allowed to have 
 *		multiple flush dependency parents.  
 *
 *		This means that the fractal heap is no longer ncessarily 
 *		flushed from the bottom up.
 *
 *		For example, it is now possible for a dirty fractal heap 
 *		header to be flushed before a dirty dblock, as long as the
 *		there in an interviening iblock, and the header has no 
 *		dirty immediate flush dependency children.
 *
 *		Also, I gather that under some circumstances, a dblock 
 *		will be direct a flush dependency child both of the iblock 
 *		that points to it, and of the fractal heap header.
 *
 *		As a result of these changes, the functionality of these
 *		sanity checking routines has been modified significantly.
 *		Instead of scanning the fractal heap from a starting point
 *		down, and verifying that there were no dirty entries, the 
 *		functions now scan downward from the starting point and 
 *		verify that there are no dirty flush dependency children 
 *		of the specified flush dependency parent.  In passing, 
 *		they also walk the data structure, and verify it.
 *
 *
 * Return:	Non-negative on success/Negative on failure

                 * If, however, the the child iblock is already protected, 
                 * but not pinned, we have a bit of a problem, as we have 
                 * no legitimate way of looking up its pointer in memory.
                 *
                 * To solve this problem, I have added a new metadata cache
                 * call to obtain the pointer.  
                 *
                 * WARNING: This call should be used only in debugging 
                 * 	    routines, and it should be avoided there when 
                 *	    possible.  
                 *
                 *          Further, if we ever multi-thread the cache, 
                 *	    this routine will have to be either discarded 
                 *	    or heavily re-worked.
                 *
                 *	    Finally, keep in mind that the entry whose 
                 *	    pointer is obtained in this fashion may not 
                 *          be in a stable state.  
                 *
                 * Assuming that the flush dependency code is working 
                 * as it should, the only reason for the child entry to 
                 * be unpinned is if none of its children are in cache.
                 * This unfortunately means that if it is protected and 
                 * not pinned, the fractal heap is in the process of loading
                 * or inserting one of its children.  The obvious implication
                 * is that there is a significant chance that the child 
                 * iblock is in an unstable state.
                 *
                 * All this suggests that using the new call to obtain the 
                 * pointer to the protected child iblock is questionable 
                 * here.  However, since this is test/debugging code, I
                 * expect that we will use this approach until it causes
                 * problems, or we think of a better way.
