Description: Added 2 new configure options, --enable-exception and --enable-accuracy.
--enable-exception lets the library check whether user's exception handling
functions are present during compiler data conversions and use them if they are.
When it's disabled, this step is skipped to improve conversion speed. This
step isn't implemented yet for soft conversions because there would be little
gain in speed.
--enable-accuracy guarantees data accuracy during data conversions. It means
the library will choose compiler conversions only if the accurate data is
secured. Otherwise, the library will go for the library's own conversions. If
this option is disabled, the library uses compiler conversions in favor of
their speed as long as they work even if data can be incorrect.
Platforms tested: h5committest and fuss. Some systems may fail after this
checkin.
improvement.
Description:
hdf5_mpi_complex_derived_datatype_works is hardset to no but
newer IRIX64 systems have it working. Changed the code to
detect the compiler version and set hdf5_mpi_complex_derived_datatype_works
to no for older compilers only.
Platforms tested:
modi4 for the no effect.
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Fix the daily test failure of collective irregular test in modi4.
Description:
The original test passed with new SGI compiler. Albert verified this from
the SGI machine at DOE. The compiler version number at modi4 is 7.3.1.3m, the compiler version number at DOE is 7.4.2m. compiler at modi4 is old and SGI may fix some bugs during the updating of their compiler.
Solution:
At configuration file IRIX.6.x, set the macro MPI_COMPLEX_DERIVED_DATATYPE to no. In that way, HDF5 library won't call derived datatype routine in the test.
Platforms tested:
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.
Bug fix
Description:
This checkin addresses two bugs.
Firstly, I used the wrong semantics when detecting if $MAKE is defined to
the empty string or undefined.
Secondly, pmake on IRIX does not work well with automake's dependency tracking
if the build is not an in-place build.
Solution:
Fixed semantics in configure.in.
Disabled automatic dependency tracking automatically on IRIX. This is not
the optimal fix, but it should work fine as long as no one is doing HDF5
development on IRIX, and it is much easier than trying to detect the exact
situations in which dependency tracking fails (or than trying to fix dependency
tracking!).
Platforms tested:
heping, modi4 (pmake and gmake)
Description: For HP-UX 11.00, the compiler generates 'floating exception'
when converting 'long double' to most of integer types.
Solution: Define a macro for all other systems except HP-UX 11.00. Hard set
this macro to 'no' in config/hpux11.00 to skip this test for HP-UX 11.00.
Platforms tested: modi4, kelgia, fuss
Description: Start to support software conversion between long double and
all integers.
Solution: No major changes to the algorithm. Changes to configure is to
exclude SGI for long double to integers test because there're too many problems
in their compiler.
Platforms tested: h5committest, modi4, fuss, Teragrid, arabica
Misc. update: RELEASE.txt
Bug fix.
Description:
MIPSpro Compiler 7.4.x starts to support C99 features
but stdint.h has a "guard" in it that will #error if
cc is invoked without asking for C99 standard. But it
does not result with a non-zero compiler exit code, thus
configure thought it is okay to use header file stdint.h.
This causes problems later.
Solution:
Default to use the C99 compiler if available.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Sandia tesla machine which is a new SGI machine.
Code cleanup
Description:
Reduce compiler warnings on SGI IRIX
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
SGI IRIX6 (Cheryl's machine)
Too minor to require full h5committest
Bug fix (sorta)
Description:
The SGI machines have problems accurately (and consistently) converting
unsigned long values to float and double values, so put in a bit of a hack in
the datatype conversion test code to allow them to get "close enough". This
hack is enabled at configure time by a flag which should only be set on machines
with this problem.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Bug Fix
Description:
The FFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and CPPFLAGS variables weren't carrying
user-defined values into the Makefiles.
Solution:
Changed the flags from FOO="..." to FOO="$FOO ..."
Platforms tested:
Copper
Verbena
Arabica
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:
Replaced the individual setting of gcc flags with the combined
gnu-flags file.
Platforms tested:
Tested in modi4 with different combinations of gcc. No needed to
run three platforms tests since this is for irix machines only.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Old config assume compiler is the SGI compiler if it is not gcc.
It would apply all SGI cc options to the $CFLAGS. This would cause
problem if a non-cc non-gcc compiler is used.
Solution:
Verify the compiler is indeed the SGI compiler before applying all those
cc specific options to the $CFLAGS.
Platforms tested:
modi4, both parallel serial, gcc or cc, -64 or n32.
Problems:
libtool generated compiler linking commands with dependency_libs
appended to any dynamic library used but only "-lz -lmfhdf ..." were
appended but "-L...", if used, are not appended. So, the "-lz ..."
information is incomplete and solaris cc does not allow even if the
"-L..." information is provide in later part of the command.
Solution:
Included $LDFLAGS in the building of $(LIB).
irix5.x:
irix6.x:
Added "-s" to PROD_CFLAGS so that production code are striped for
smaller sizes.
Platform Tested:
Solaris 2.6
----------------------
This extensive change is the virtual file layer implementation. I've
ported and tested the sec2, family, and core drivers and only ported
the mpio driver (Albert will test it). So if you need MPIO I would
recommend sticking with the previous version for a while.
You will get a few compile warnings about split and stdio drivers not
being implemented and possibly tracing information not inserted in
some of the drivers. You can safely ignore them but I plan to fix
them.
I'm still working on the split driver because I just realized that it
needs a part of the VFL that isn't written yet.
Documentation is being updated also because there were some minor
changes (mostly just name changes). It should be available on my web
site later this week.

Modified to work with the virtual file layer by calling H5FD_*
functions instead of H5F_low_* functions and by passing file
access and data transfer properties by object ID instead of
pointer.
Changed H5D_transfer_t to H5FD_mpio_xfer_t since the
COLLECTIVE vs. INDEPENDENT transfer mode is specific to the
MPIO file driver.
Moved MPIO-specific stuff into the MPIO driver.
./src/H5B.c

The H5F_mpio_* private functions were renamed and placed in
the H5FDmpio driver except those which appeared in H5Smpio.c.
./src/H5E.c
./src/H5Epublic.h
Added major error number H5E_VFL for virtual file layer
related errors.
./src/H5F.c
./src/H5Fprivate.h
Changed the logic that controls whether the boot block is
written. Instead of assuming that the first call to write the
boot block is only to allocate space, I've added a function
argument which makes this explicit.
Changed the way files are compared so that a driver-defined
comparison function can be called. Files which belong to
different drivers are always considered different.
Removed H5F_driver_t since file drivers are now identified by
object ID instead of a special non-user-extendible datatype.
Removed all the hard-coded low-level file properties which
have been replaced by the various file drivers.
./src/H5I.c
./src/H5Iprivate.h
Added the H5I_inc_ref() which was removed a few months ago
since we finally have a use for it.
./src/H5Ipublic.h
Added the H5I_VFL object ID type to identify file drivers in
the virtual file layer.
./src/H5MF.c
./src/H5MFprivate.h
Moved all the allocation/deallocation code into the virtual
file layer which allows file drivers to override much of it.
./src/H5P.c
./src/H5Ppublic.h
Moved file driver-specific code into the various file driver
files.
The H5Pcopy() and H5Pclose() functions make calls into the
virtual file driver to manage the memory for driver-specific
file access and data transfer properties.
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5public.h
The `haddr_t' type is now public.
./test/tfile.c
Added a few more comments.
OS cannot handle the 64 bit instruction sets. Let the local system
default takes care of preferred machine code.
Tested on both IRIX and IRIX64 platforms.
----------------------
./INSTALL
Reorganized and added some additional examples.
./MANIFEST
./aclocal.m4 [NEW]
./configure.in
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./bin/ltconfig [NEW]
./bin/ltmain.sh [NEW]
Added tests to determine how to compile shared libraries and
how to link programs with them before the libraries are
installed. Also how to install and uninstall shared
libraries. The configure step also prints the names of the
config files it's trying to load for easier debugging.
./bin/config.guess
./bin/config.sub
Replaced with a newer version from GNU. The changes we made
to that file to report `irix6.x' and `FreeBSD' without version
numbers have been incorporated into configure.in instead. In
the future, do not change these two files (see the top of
configure.in instead). By the way, this update was required to
get shared libraries working.
./config/linux [REMOVED]
./config/linux-gnulibc1 [NEW]
./config/linux-gnu [NEW]
./config/alpha-dec [REMOVED]
./config/alpha-dec-osf4.0 [REMOVED]
./config/dec-osf4.x [NEW]
./config/irix5.3 [REMOVED]
./config/irix5.x [NEW]
./config/irix64 [REMOVED]
./config/freebsd
Moved config files around to agree with output from the new
config.guess. The linux file was split into gnu (RedHat),
gnulibc1, and gnulibc2 versions. The alpha-dec file was
removed (I think it was unused) and the alpha-dec-osf4.0 was
changed to dec-osf4.x. The irix5.3 file renamed to irix5.x and
the irix64 file was renamed to irix6.x. The freebsd file was
changed to point to linux-gnulibc1. These changes were tested
on:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20
OSF1 4.0
./config/alphaev56-dec-osf4.x
./config/irix64
Added warnings similar to linux/freebsd about using compilers
with known bugs.
./config/commence.in
./config/conclude.in
./src/Makefile.in
./test/Makefile.in
./testpar/Makefile.in
./tools/Makefile.in
Added definitions for shared libraries. This has been tested
on the following systems:
Linux 2.0
Linux 2.1
FreeBSD 3.2
Irix 5.3
Irix64 6.2
Irix64 6.4
HP/UX 10.20 static only
OSF1 4.0
If you want to disable use of shared libraries (you probably
do for development purposes since it takes a lot longer to
compile and because you have to run dynamically linked
programs in a special way if the library hasn't been
installed) then add `--disable-shared' to the configure
command line. This is all documented in the INSTALL file.
./bin/release
Temprarily commented out the MANIFEST checking when running
under svf since svf is about to be replaced by a newer
version. This change only affects error checking during the
release process.
./Makefile.dist
./Makefile.in
Added `make check' which does the same thing as `make _test'
since the former is endorsed by the GNU coding style and
people are used to it. The old `make _test' still works too
(and so does `make test' if you use GNU make).
----------------------
./INSTALL
Added instructions for using other compilers on Irix platforms.
./configure.in
./configure [REGENERATED]
./src/H5config.h.in [REGENERATED]
./src/H5private.h
The presence of <sys/sysinfo.h> and <sys/proc.h> is only
checked on DEC/Alpha because there are too many problems
including these headers on other systems.
./config/irix6.x
./config/irix64
Removed `-ansi' and added a comment. Converting an ASCII UTC date
and time to a time_t value is not defined by ANSI or Posix but
is available if we don't use `-ansi'. This allows the dataset
modification time messages to be read properly by
H5Gget_objinfo().
./src/H5Tconv.c
Fixed a compiler warning.
./test/dtypes.c
./test/hyperslab.c
./test/istore.c
Fixed compiler warnings in printf() statements.
----------------------
./INSTALL
Added warnings and a disclaimer about GNU, DEC, Irix64, and NT
compilers that generate incorrect machine code.
./configure.in
./src/H5private.h
Detects and includes <sys/param.h> which is needed on FreeBSD
before <sys/proc.h> even though we only really using anything
from <sys/proc.h> on the DEC Alpha.
./config/irix64
Turned off warnings for duplicate definitions from the linker
because -lnsl on irix has the same stuff in it as -lc.
./config/irix6.x
Split up the CC and CFLAGS settings like with irix64 so that
compilers besides `-n32' can be used.
./bin/snapshot
The snapshots are tagged with names like hdf5-1_1_52 which is
similar to the way the releases are tagged (cvs doesn't allow
dots in tags).
./test/dtypes.c
./src/H5private.h
./src/H5Tconv.c
Fixed some alignment violations on the DEC when using high
optimization levels. The DEC incorrectly optimizes certain
memcpy() and memmove() calls when the source argument is not
word aligned if the call looks like it's copying an atomic
data type.
./test/hyperslab
Worked around code generation bugs in the Irix64 Mongoose 7.00
compiler by casting some `unsigned long' values to `unsigned'
in an expression.
./src/H5Ocomp.c
Fixed a place where %d was used to print a size_t.
Bug fix
Problem:
Currently, when --enable_preduction --disable-debug modes are
selected during configure, the optimization level scheduled is
-O (-O2). Unfortunately, this level of optimization relaxes
too much the alignments necesary for the building, and testing
of the hdf5 library.
Solution:
Lower the level of optimiztion to -O1. This still maintains
required alignments.
Platform tested:
Irix6.5(fuga)
