Description:
Added internal tesitng routines to traverse a file and verify that symbol table
information is *always* cached, whenever possible. Added this check to the end
of many tests to check all the test files, right before the call to h5_cleanup.
Tested: jam, amani, heiwa (h5committest)
Bring Coverity revisions from branch back to trunk, and clean up some other
misc. compiler warnings also.
r19500:
Fix coverity items 1446 and 1447. Moved up calls to memset in test_cont in
ohdr.c so the test never tries to close uninitialized locations.
r19501:
Fix coverity items 1398-1445. Various uninitialized variable errors in fheap.c.
r19502:
Fixed coverity issue 579 and some additional warnings in the file as well.
r19503:
Bug fix: This fix addressed the "RESOURCE_LEAK" problems #789 and 790, run 26
r19504:
minor mods to try to keep coverity from flagging false positives.
r19505:
Fixed coverity issues 566 - 571. Declared variables that are passed to functions that use them as arrays to be arrays of size 1.

Address issue with object headers being created getting evicted from

done by pinning the object header in the cache until it is completely

Commit metadata tagging framework.
Description:
This check-in contains a new framework whose goal is to apply
a tag value to each new entry in the metadata cache as it is created.
This tag value is such that it relates each piece of metadata to the
HDF5 object that it belongs to (dataset, group, et cetera).
This changeset includes the framework that applies the tags as
well as a suite of tests to verify correct tag application, though does
not yet make use of the tag values to flush/evict individual objects.
Please refer to the "flush/evict individual objects" RFC for further
discussion of these changes.

Add new internal object header routines to query the header chunk that
a message is in, and to lock/unlock a message into a chunk (so it doesn't get
moved into another chunk during allocation/free events).
Also, move dataspace message to beginning of object header messages
added to a dataset's object header, so it can be locked into chunk #0 (when
performing SWMR operations).

Bring new object header pin/unpin & protect/unprotect routines and
split-out object header chunk proxy changes from metadata_journaling branch to

No need for h5committest, just whitespace changes...
Description:
On Windows, certain users were having trouble with the "ohdr" test, which does some processing on object header messages. The errors were hard to reproduce on our machines, and we eventually determined that the errors were timezone-specific.
The bug is triggered on Windows when processing timestamps very near the "Epoch" (midnight on 1/1/1970)-- the mktime() function does some automatic adjustment on the time to correct for timezones. In the USA, the correction adds a few hours; in Europe, it subtracts, thus giving us times pre-Epoch.
This only affects Windows because the Windows mktime() function cannot handle times before 1970-- other systems seemingly can.
The fix is to simply create timestamps only as early as 01/02/1970. This way, any timezone adjustment will still be post-Epoch.
This bug only affects the ohdr test, and shouldn't be a problem in the library. The earliest timestamps that will actually be read will be around the time HDF5 was created (~1996-7, per Quincey).

Modify semantics for constant messages slightly, to allow them to be
deleted, but not modified. This works around the issue where "old" style
groups are being created with the symbol table message marked constant in
the 1.6 (and prior) branch, but the 1.8 branch needs to remove the symbol table
message when the group has been changed to the "new" style (upon insertion
of a link that the "old" style can't handle).

Fix problems with 'check-vfd' target, that were [mostly] introduced with
the recent "unique, but sharable" ISOHM optimization.
The problems were mostly with using the 'core' VFD, so the
H5Pset_fapl_core() API call was changed to re-open existing files (therefore
operating more list the sec2, stdio, etc. VFDs). This allows many more of
the tests to run using the 'core' VFD, so those were enabled also.

Fix possible file corruption when using "new" format object headers and the

"make check-vfd" will now run all tests in the test directory with different

New feature
Description:
Check in baseline for compact group revisions, which radically revises the
source code for managing groups and object headers.
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
This initiates the "unstable" phase of the 1.7.x branch, leading up
to the 1.8.0 release. Please test this code, but do _NOT_ keep files created
with it - the format will change again before the release and you will not
be able to read your old files!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
Solution:
There's too many changes to really describe them all, but some of them
include:
- Stop abusing the H5G_entry_t structure and split it into two separate
structures for non-symbol table node use within the library: H5O_loc_t
for object locations in a file and H5G_name_t to store the path to
an opened object. H5G_entry_t is now only used for storing symbol
table entries on disk.
- Retire H5G_namei() in favor of a more general mechanism for traversing
group paths and issuing callbacks on objects located. This gets us out
of the business of hacking H5G_namei() for new features, generally.
- Revised H5O* routines to take a H5O_loc_t instead of H5G_entry_t
- Lots more...
Platforms tested:
h5committested and maybe another dozen configurations.... :-)
Code cleanup
Description:
Merge back changes from "compact group" work that improve the
infrastructure of the library and may impact others. In this round of
merging, that includes:
- Move datatype allocation into single internal routine, instead of
duplicated code that was spread out in a dozen or so places.
- Clean up guts of object header routines (H5O_*) to allow for some of
the fancieroperations that need to be performed on groups, along with
some general improvements.
- Added a new error code
- Some minor cleanups in other code....

Description:
Generally speaking, this is the "signed->unsigned" change to selections.
However, in the process of merging code back, things got stickier and stickier
until I ended up doing a big "sync the two branches up" operation. So... I
brought back all the "infrastructure" fixes from the development branch to the
release branch (which I think were actually making some improvement in
performance) as well as fixed several bugs which had been fixed in one branch,
but not the other.
I've also tagged the repository before making this checkin with the label
"before_signed_unsigned_changes".

Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
If an HDF5 file grows larger than its address space, it dies and is unable to
write any data. This is more likely to happen since users are able to change
the number of bytes used to store addresses in the file.
Solution:
HDF5 now throws an error instead of dying. In addition, it "reserves" address
space for the local heap and for object headers (which do not allocate space
immediately). This ensures that after the error occurs, there is enough address
space left to flush the entire file to disk, so no data is lost.

bug fix
Description:
1. windows cannot recongize long long. We agree to use long_long to represent all "long long" compatible data types.
2. windows test can not check error code, it depends on error messages to be returned. This will be fixed in the future. In odhr.c, somehow only error value1 is generated, there are no error message even if some tests are missing. So just add an error message when error code is 1.
Solution:
change long long to long_long in dtypes.c;
Add an error message when error code is not 0 in ohdr.c
Platforms tested:

Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
When too many messages were inserted into an object header, the library
had an internal pointer to the "new message" that was pointing to the incorrect
location when the array of messages was re-allocated.
In the worst case, this could cause a file to be corrupted.
Solution:
Update the internal pointer when the array is re-allocated.

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.
