Bug fix
Description:
An earlier checkin changed some of the assumptions about single block
hyperslabs, causing them to fail in odd ways.
Solution:
Fix errors with single block hyperslabs by keying off of count==1 instead
of stride==1.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/parallel
h5committested
Feature Add
Description:
Added knob so that the programmer can enable or disable GPFS
hints during runtime instead of having it only enabled at
configure/compile time. Some of the public APIs were changed
to add an extra parameter for this option...
Platforms tested:
Blue (LLNL). It only affects the MPI/POSIX driver, so no need
to test it on non-GPFS platforms.
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Updated (and in some cases added) the copyright statement.
Platforms tested:
Linux (Comment changes...only tested if they compile)
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
Metadata cache in parallel I/O can cause hangs in applications which
perform independent I/O on chunked datasets, because the metadata cache
can attempt to flush out dirty metadata from only a single process, instead
of collectively from all processes.
Solution:
Pass a dataset transfer property list down from every API function which
could possibly trigger metadata I/O.
Then, split the metadata cache into two sets of entries to allow dirty
metadata to be set aside when a hash table collision occurs during
independent I/O.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel
Misc. update:
Updated release_docs/RELEASE
New feature
Description:
Add support for scalar dataspaces in parallel I/O.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
Also, FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel
Misc. update:
Update release_docs/RELEASE for bug fixes, new features, etc.
Code cleanup
Description:
Cleaned up some compiler warnings.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) w/serial & parallel. Will be testing on IRIX64
6.5 (modi4) in serial & parallel shortly.
Code cleanup
Description:
Changed ifdef name from "VERBOSE" to "BARRIER_CHECKS", to better describe
what it affects.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4) w/parallel
New test feature
Description:
Added create_faccess_plist() that create just MPIO or split+MPIO
file-access property list. This in turn can run parallel tests
with just MPIO or with Split-file VFD too.
Added -s option for split-file Plus MPIO tests.
For testphdf5.c: removed a bunch of old debug code that got left
in by mistake.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 and eirene parallel.
But it has uncovered errors in the library. The test program
is correct though. Checking the test program in so that it won't
get lost and can be used for debugging. Also, the -s is not used
by default during test. At least it won't abort "make check".
More code cleanups
Description:
Wrap up the code cleanups for changing the dataset transfer property lists
over to using the generic property list code.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
New parallel test features
Description:
Added test cases:
INDEPENDENT write with some processes do not participate at all.
The library should not hang for this case.
COLLECTIVE read/write with some processes asking for zero elements.
The library should work properly and not hanging.
Some house cleaning: get rid of a conditional directive that was
fixed already.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64,-64,parallel
Backward compatibility code
Description:
Add in code to allow the library to emulate the v1.2 API and behavior.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.2 (hawkwind)
New feature
Description:
Added tests to make sure collective read or write works correctly
even if some process has no data to transfer.
ZROW--process 0 asks for zero rows of data while other processes ask
for a slab of rows.
ZCOL--process 0 asks for zero columns of data while other processes ask
for a slab of columns.
Platforms tested:
IRIX64 parallel (-64,-n32).
cvS: ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Added features
Description:
There were no automatic tests for transfering zero elements.
Solution:
t_dset.c:
Added two new patterns of ZROW (zero rows for process 0)
and ZCOL(zero columns for process 0).
ZROW test was added but it failed because the current library
does not accept it. Not compiled in now. Need to fix the
library before turning it back on again and also to add the
ZCOL test.
t_mdset.c:
Added statement to show progress. Also the MPI_Barrier() call
get processes synchornoized. It eliminates the racing condition
but this is not a permenant solution. The library code needs to
be fixed.
testphdf5.c:
Added a bunch of MPI_Type_XXX debug code. Added the -md
option to skip the multiple datasets tests. Changed the cosmitic
appearance of the banner messages.
testphdf5.h:
When an error is detected, the old way was to call MPI_Finalize()
before exiting. This sometimes hangs because some processes
may be waiting for a message of a different tag. Changed to
call MPI_Abort() for now so that the whole MPI job would
abort rather than hanging due resource limits exceeded.
Added the definition of ZROW and ZCOL.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 -64.
Bug fix
Description:
The old code was using count as the block size. The result was
asking for a slab of count blocks, each of 1 element. The recent
change in the hyperslab algorithm exposed this problem. (The
old algorithm merge the count blocks back into 1 big block of
count elements.) (This error was due to that the block argument
was not in the very early version of hyperslab. Then it was
not updated since it had been "working".)
Solution:
Added in the block argument to the setup and calculation of
slab and its data. Also found a dumb error in the dataset_fill
algorithm in which stride was used in the calculation. Not so
for the cases of BYROW and BYCOL.
Platforms tested:
modi4 parallel, both -64 an -n32 modes.
----------------------
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

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.
Changed it to skip the test instead of aborting when there is not
enough processes to do the test. Also corrected an error in the
error reporting printf statement.
t_dset.c:
testphdf5.c:
testphdf5.h:
Added option for specifying chunk dimensions.
new feature
Makefile.in:
Added the dependence of *.c on the testphdf5.h
t_dset.c:
testphdf5.c:
testphdf5.h:
testphdf5 now takes optional arguements for dataset dimension sizes.
That allows testing with different dimension sizes without recompiling
the whole thing.
Platform tested:
O2K
big testphdf5.c file. Broke it into modules of related routines.
testphdf5.c -- main routine and global variables initialization plus
some ulitility routines.
