Feature: tests now use parallel make and only run once
Description:
When make is invoked in parallel (using the -j option), several tests will
now be run simultaneously. This should speed up testing on a number of
systems.
When a test passes, it creates a foo.chkexe or foo.chksh file, which prevents
the test from running again unless the test or library changes.
Solution:
Most of the changes live in config/conclude.am. Added *.chkexe and *.chksh
files to the list of files to be cleaned at "make mostlyclean" time.
Parallel tests still run one at a time, but use the same make instructions
as serial tests.
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene, sleipnir, pommier, copper, modi4 (some errors occurred, probably
due to the test being run before updating hdf5. Will re-run tests after
checkin.)
bug fix
Description:
check-s and check-p were set as pre-requistics of test. They
would get executed in parallel if parallel make is used. This
could cause problems since serial tests are used to be executed
before parallel tests. It is not known if it is always okay to
run serial and parallel tests in simultantously.
Solution:
Change check-s and check-p as actions of the target test so
that they get executed sequnentially.
Platforms tested:
heping PP.
Added check-s and check-p targets.
Description:
Added check-s and check-p targets to 1.7 branch to match changes to 1.6
branch. Now parallel and serial tests can be run separately.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, copper
new fortran parallel test
Description:
added a test that writes and reads several datasets
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux (intel compiler, tungsten)
AIX (copper)
Misc. update:
added new fortran parallel tests that replace the old ones
Description:
this first set of tests do a write/read by hyperslabs
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Linux (heping) PGI compiler
Linux (heping) Intel compiler
AIX (copper) IBM compiler
SGI Altix (cobalt) Intel compiler
Xeon Linux cluster (tungsten) Intel compiler
Misc. update:
Output tweak
Description:
Test output in C++ and Fortran directories now puts "C++ API:" or
"Fortran API:" in front of the name of the test being run.
I had overlooked the line of code that caused this to happen.
Solution:
Added HDF_CXX and HDF_FORTRAN variables to C++ and Fortran Makefiles.am.
Platforms tested:
heping (minor change)
Description: Removed support for SRB driver
Solution: Removed or modified appropriate files; ran reconfigure
to regenerate Makefile.in and configure files.
Platforms tested: heping and shanti
Misc. update: ran bin/chkmanifest on heping
Configuration feature
Description:
Different Fortran compilers mangle function names in different ways
(upper case, lower case, adding underscores). To link between
Fortran and C functions, we need to know what a given function's
name is under a given compiler.
Solution:
Use autoconf's FC_WRAPPERS check to determine the Fortran
naming scheme and define the FC_FUNC_ macro to name our
functions (in H5f90proto.h). Removed references to
our old FNAME macro, as well as flags that indicated whether
function names were upper or lower case.
Platforms tested:
mir, pommier, modi4, copper, more
Bug fix
Description:
On some machines, $RUNSERIAL variable needs to be used to run
tests. Set $RUNTESTS (which is used for non-parallel tests) to
be $RUNSERIAL in configure.am.
Also, since I was updating all Makefiles.in anyway, I updated
commence.am to point to autotools installs in AFS instead of
those on heping.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4, copper
Purpose:
"Bug fix"
Description:
Hardcoded Makefiles to use /bin/sh instead of letting configure
detect shell automatically. This is what v1.6 does, and avoids
problems on janus.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, mir
Feature - conditional compilation
Description:
SRB file driver and tests are now compiled only when SRB is enabled
(using --with-srb during configure).
Solution:
Added an automake conditional in configure.in, altered Makefiles.am in
src and test directories to depend on that conditional.
This should make a nice example for posterity to add conditionally
compiled sources.
Platforms tested:
heping (only configure change)
Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:
Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every
Makefile.in.
Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet
Table API is supported).
Added both C++ source and tests.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, mir, modi4
Misc. update:
Automake version upgrade
Description:
Upgraded automake version from 1.6.2 to 1.9.5.
Changed bin/reconfigure script to use automake 1.9.5.
Changed configure.in and Makefiles to use new FCFLAGS and FC variables
instead of FFLAGS and F9X.
Automake and configure should now do the lion's share of the work
supporting Fortran 9X; macros in acsite.m4 are now mostly unused (will
be cleaned later).
Altered how configure handles pmake; now root-level Makefile.in is
processed by bin/reconfigure to have a .MAKEFLAGS target, since
automake no longer allows us to define unused variables.
Configure now always checks for C++ compiler even if it is not
used, since automake thinks this is the Right Thing To Do and
will break otherwise.
Platforms tested:
Sol, copper, heping, mir, sleipnir, eirene, pommier, kelgia, modi4.
Removed GASS configuration and software packages associated with
it. The following software are no longer configurable.
checking for main in -lcrypto... yes
checking for SSL_get_version in -lssl... yes
checking globus_common.h usability... yes
checking globus_common.h presence... yes
checking for globus_common.h... yes
checking for globus_module_activate in -lglobus_common... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gass_cache... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gaa... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gss... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gss_assist... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_io... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gass_transfer_assist... yes
checking for main in -lglobus_gass_transfer... yes
checking for globus_gass_open in -lglobus_gass_file... yes
Platforms tested:
h5committested (but copper was down.) tested in modi4 too.
Bug fix
Description:
Fortran builds were dying with unknown flags.
Solution:
Fortran builds should be static, not shared. Static flags had been specified
for libraries, but apparently were also needed for executables.
Solved problem by adding static flag to everything in fortran directories.
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
modi4 dies during build with strange errors.
The root cause of these is a two-year-old hack in HDF5's libtool
script that only takes effect on IRIX.
Solution:
Edited the libtool hack (by editing ltmain.sh) to correct a bug in
the hack.
Also made sure that compiler-specific DEFAULT_LIBS are used
when linking.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, sol
Bug fix
Description:
pmake (on modi4, for instance) complains about undefined variables
if it is run without the -V flag, which turns those errors to warnings.
Solution:
Added test to configure.in to see if $MAKE will allow Makefiles
with undefined variables. If not, sets -V flag in AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Ensured that all custom make targets use AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Also defined all variables that caused errors in top-level Makefile.am.
This means that pmake can be used to build hdf5 *from the top level
only*. To run make from a subdirectory, still need to use -V flag
(or use make or gmake).
Platforms tested:
modi4, heping, copper, sleipnir
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Make uninstall in /fortran/testpar was trying to remove install/bin directory.
Solution:
Remove the extra line that was copy-pasted into Makefile.am by mistake. Oops.
Platforms tested:
Copper.
Bug fix
Description:
Parallel make was having trouble in fortran/testpar directory
on sol.
Solution:
Added a dependency to ensure that things are built in the correct order.
Platforms tested:
sol
Bug fix
Description:
/fortran/testpar build breaks when making in parallel
Solution:
Massage depdendencies slightly to ensure that object files are
built after module file.
Also made sure that module file gets cleaned properly.
Platforms tested:
eirene
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Parallel builds were breaking in tools/lib
Solution:
talign didn't realize it depended on libh5tools.la because its
dependencies listed the full path (../../tools/lib/libh5tools.la).
Changed this, and made similar changes in a couple of other
directories.
This checkin should also add the --foreign flag to every Makefile.in
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (minor change)
New feature
Description:
Add basic code for new B-tree implementation. They don't do much yet,
aren't hooked up to anything yet and the format may change, but I'd like to
start getting them into the daily tests.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Found the permanant fix to automake/CVS dependency problem
Solution:
Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro to configure.in.
Now automake will never try to regenerate Makefiles, Makefiles.in,
configure, H5config.h, etc. when they are out of date, nor will it
print any warnings.
Developers should be very very careful to use reconfigure script,
and can add --enable-maintainer-mode flag to configure on heping
to regenerate these files correctly.
Platforms tested:
heping sleipnir copper
Bug fix
Description:
Configuration files' timestamps were incorrect.
Solution:
Update Makefiles.in. Also added correct paths to autotools on heping,
so heping build should be able to re-generate configuration files even
if they are still broken.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir
Bug fix
Description:
Dependencies between configure files (aclocal, configure.in, configure,
Makefiles.am and .in) are still causing Makefiles to try to run autotools
during build.
Solution:
Committed all Makefiles.in to update their timestamps.
As a temporary measure, forcibly prevented automake from running
autotools during build by redefining the variables it uses.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (No changes to Makefile content)
Bug fix
Description:
Different compilers use different flags to include Fortran module files
Solution:
Changed boilerplate to use configure variable rather than hardcoded -M flag.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, sol, copper
Configuration feature
Description:
HDF5 now uses automake to generate Makefiles
Solution:
Makefile.in files are now generated from Makefile.am files.
To reconfigure (after chaning a Makefile.am or configure.in):
/bin/sh bin/reconfigure.sh
Platforms tested:
Many
Description: Fortran module search directories included ../src and
../../fortran/src directories; this was defined in
acsite.m4 file in order for fortran and HL fortran tests
to compile. Those flags were included in h5fc and h5pfc scripts.
Solution: Removed those directories from acsite.m4 file and updated
Makefile.in files.
Platforms tested: sequential on arabica and parallel on copper
including HL Fortran
Misc. update:
Updated the copyright notice--mostly by rearranging
some text to make them consistent.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"--sol is down, so, no SUn test.
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Revamped the configuration system. The configurations for the Fortran
and C++ libraries are no longer separate from the "main"
configuration system. This involved removing the "configure*" and
"aclocal.m4" files from the fortran/ and c++/ subdirectories. Also
merging settings in the config/ subdirectories into the main config/
subdirectory.
Fortran header files had to be modified a little for Linux. It was
checking if it was a Linux machine by some #defines, however with the
-std=c99 switch, these defines weren't there. I added a check for
some other ones which should be there whether the -std=c99 switch is
used or not.
Platforms tested:
Verbena (Fortran & C++)
Sol (Fortran & C++)
Copper (Fortran & C++)
Modi4 (Parallel, Fortran, & C++)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Changes needed to make "pmake" work on Modi4.
Solution:
Needed to add some null macro defines in the commence.in files.
Needed to remove a dependence on LIBH5TEST in the fortran make
since LIBH5TEST isn't used in the fortran stuff.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (small change)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug fix, code improvement
Description:
Fortran tests didn't cleanup created files. Also HDF5_PREFIX and
HDF5_PARAPREFIX were not used to specify location of the files.
There was a redundant file in the testpar directory that contained
an error reporting function used by both serial and parallel tests.
Solution:
Created library h5test_fortran.a that contains functions used by the
serial and parallel tests. It includes Fortran and C functions that
may be called from Fortran programs to report errors, to modify
file names and to cleanup files after run. Modified test code to
use new functions.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.2 (eirene) serial
IRIX64 (modi4) parallel with HDF5_PREFIX and HDF5_PARAPREFIX set to $SCR
Solris 2.7 with mpich 1.2.4 with HDF5_PARAPREFIX set to /tmp/epourmal
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
the ptesthdf5_fortran.f90 program was dependent upon the THDF5
module. But before the ptesthdf5_fortran.lo file is build, the THDF5
module needs to be built.
Solution:
Put that dependency into the Makefile.
Purpose:
Fix
Description:
Porting fixes from the 1.4 branch to the 1.5 branch. This fixes the
dependency problem in the testpar/ directory and also the problem
with module includes on the command line.
