Tested platform:
Kagiso only since it is only a comment block change. If it works in one
machine, it should work in all, I hope. Still need to check the parallel
build on copper.
Add 'initval' parameter to "lookup3" checksum routine (and implicitly to
the metadata checksum routine), to allow chaining several checksums together
easily (which isn't used by these modules, but will be used in my next checkin)
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Add 'loookup3' checksum routine and switch to using it for metadata
checksums - it's just as "strong" as the CRC32 and about 40% faster in general
(with some compiler optimizations, it's nearly as fast as the fletcher-32
algorithm).
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Add a CRC algorithm to the library, initially for "small" (<256 byte)
metadata blocks.
Update checksum tests to verify it's working correctly.
Tested:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
(Will be testing on more platforms after checkin)
Tweak the library's new faster fletcher32 algorithm to always produce the
same checksum as the previous fletcher32 code in the fletcher32 I/O pipeline
filter and switch the filter to use the library's version of the algorithm.
Tested on:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Too minor to require h5committest
Break out a bunch of the misc. routines that were in src/H5.c into more
specific modules.
Add optimized fletcher32 checksum routine, for checksumming metadata as
well as raw data.
Tested On:
Linux/32 2.6 (chicago)
Linux/64 2.6 (chicago2)
Will test further after checkin...
