Description:
Versions of the library between 1.3.0 and 1.6.3 have a bug which prevents them
from opening any file that does not have the root group's symbol table
information cached in the root group's entry in the superblock. Prior to 1.8
this was not an issue as this information was always cached. However, 1.8.0
stopped writing this information (which is not required by the file format
specification), and these older versions can therefore not read files created or
last written by versions 1.8.0 to 1.8.2. This fix modifies the library to once
again add this information to the superblock (when using the old file format).
Tested: jam, linew, smirom (h5committest)
ISSUE2: the scale index input/output parameter value passed to H5DSiterate_scales was not always incremented (it returns the scale index current iteration).
SOLUTION FOR ISSUE2: modified the cycle in H5DSiterate_scales so that the scale index is always incremented
TEST: added some test cases with calls to invalid indices and H5DSiterate_scales with return scale indices and visitor data
tested: windows, linux
Description:
Factory free lists were formerly implemented as block free lists. This was
inefficient as factories can only be one size, and implementing them as blocks
(which can be variable size) wastedd computation and space. They have been
rewritten with a separate implementation, which is simlar to regular free lists
except they can be dynamically created and destroyed.
Tested: jam, linew, smirom (h5committest)
Description:
Changed Skip list package to use a deterministic skip list. This allows the
skip list package to avoid calling rand() and srand(), even on machines without
rand_r(). There is no longer a p-value or maximum level for skip lists.
Tested: jam, smirom, linew (h5committest)
ISSUE: When some functions are called with an invalid dimension index (for example, greater than the rank of the dataset) the function does not immediately fail, rather asserts down the code.
SOLUTION: added this check for H5DSdetach_scale, H5DSset_label, H5DSget_label (the other functions have this check) . H5DSiterate_scales also added a check for an invalid dimension scale index
TEST: added some test cases with calls to invalid indices
DOCS: Nothing added
Description:
Previously, H5Lcopy and H5Lmove would (through H5L_move) improperly apply the
"create intermediate groups" property to the source path traversal, and not the
destination. Fixed it to apply the property to the destination and not the
source. Also fixed H5Lcreate_ud to reject internal link classes without
throwing an assertion.
Tested: linew, jam, smirom (h5committtest)
Fixed warnings from absoft's compiler for !DEC$ statements.
Solution: There should not be a space after !DEC$ statements, removed the spaces.
Platforms tested:
Jam with gcc and f95
ISSUE: Purify (Windows Visual Studio 6) complains of a memory leak in H5DSdetach_scale call regarding a H5Aread call (stack is H5A_read, H5T_convert, H5T_conv_vlen, H5T_vlen_seq_mem_write, H5MM_malloc).
SOLUTION: When a scale is detached from a dataset, the variable length structure length field is decreased in one entry. The associated pointer must be reallocated with the new length.
DOCS AND TEST: Nothing added
tested: windows with purify, linux
ISSUE : h5repack does not handle group creation order flags.
ACTION: call H5P(g)(s)et_link_creation_order functions when handling groups, add new groups with these flags to the test generation program, and verify results in the test program.
TEST: in the test program, function that compares property lists, added code to verify groups
tested: windows, linux, solaris
some argument check in the internal function H5I_find_id and took out the assertion check.
I also removed the argument check in H5Iis_valid because it's in H5I_find_id now.

Add 'notify' callback to metadata cache clients, so that they can be
aware when the cache has taken/will take certain actions. Notifications are
urrently limited to when an entry has successfully entered the cache (via an
insertion or a load from the file) and when an entry is about to be evicted
from the cache.

Description:
Due to a bug in H5F_super_read, every time a file with a user block was opened
it would grow by the size of the user block. The bug has been fixed, and
comments have been added to clarify when an eoa address should be relative and
when it should be absolute.
Tested:
jam, linew (h5committest)
ISSUE : the tools use the following formula to read by hyperslabs: hyperslab_size[i] = MIN( dim_size[i], H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE / datum_size) where H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE is a constant defined of 1024K. This is OK as long as the datum_size does not exceed 1024K, otherwise we have a hyperslab size of 0 (since 1024K/(greater than 1024K) = 0). This affects h5dump. h5repack, h5diff
SOLUTION: add a check for a 0 size and define as 1 if so.
TEST FOR H5DUMP: Defined a case in the h5dump test generator program of such a type (an array type of doubles with a large array dimension, that was the case the user reported). Since the written file commited in svn would be around 1024K, opted for not writing the data (the part of the code where the hyperslab is defined is executed, since h5dump always reads the files). Defined a macro WRITE_ARRAY to enable such writing if needed. Added a run on the h5dump shell script. Added 2 new files to svn: tools/testfiles/tarray8.ddl, tools/testfiles/tarray8.h5. NOTE: while doing this I thought of adding this dataset case to an existing file, but that would add the large array output to those files (the ddls). The issue is that the file list is increasing.
TEST FOR H5DIFF: for h5diff the check for reading by hyperslabs is H5TOOLS_MALLOCSIZE (128 * H5TOOLS_BUFSIZE) or 128 Mb. This makes it not possible to add such a file to svn, so used the same method as h5dump (only write the dataset if WRITE_ARRAY is defined). As opposed to h5dump, the hyperslab code is NOT executed when the dataset is empty (dataset is not read). Added the new dataset to existing files and shell run (tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_dset1.h5 and tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_dset2.h5 and output in tools/h5diff/testfiles/h5diff_80.txt).
TEST FOR H5REPACK: similar issue as h5diff with the difference that the hyperslab code is run. Added a run to the shell script (with a filter, otherwise the code uses H5Ocopy).
tested: linux (h5commitest failed , apparently it did not detect the code changes in /tools/lib that fix the bug: the error in an assertion in the hyperslab of 0. I am sure that making h5ccomitest --distclean will detect the new code , but don't want to wait more 3 hours :-) )
v1.8 library, v1.8 library writes the driver info block in the superblock. But v1.6
doesn't write it. This caused the data after the superblock to be overwritten. The
solution is to use a flag to indicate when the original file doesn't have the driver
info, v1.8 library doesn't write it either.
Tested on jam. I have some trouble to access smirom and linew using h5committest.

- Lite: The h5ltget_dataset_info_f function (gets information about a dataset)
was not correctly returning the dimension array (PVN - 2009/3/23)
Description:
Some files apparently exist in the wild which have corrupt symbol table messages
on the root group. These files can be opened by 1.6 (which uses the cached
information in the superblock) but not by 1.8. This patch fixes 1.8 and 1.9 so
they can now open these files, and will correct them if necessary. Also fix
some potential (rare) problems with array datatype versions.
Tested: jam (parallel; h5committest not working on linew or smirom)
