Feature.
Description:
Removed the entry for tflops which has retired.
Added a special --host entry for redstorm.
This allows "configure --host=redstorm" for building in RedStorm.
Platforms tested:
Red Storm.
Unstable format version marker.
Description:
This marks the Check in baseline for compact group revisions,
which radically revises the source code for managing groups and object headers.
Earlier versions (1.7.52 or earlier) have the original format. This version
and later have the unstable format until further notice.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Bug fix
Description:
Fortran type generation was broken in two ways. Fixed both.
Solution:
Firstly, there were a couple of path problems. Fixed a typo and
specified the full path of a file.
Secondly, the dependencies weren't right when building with HDF5-specific
commands (make lib, make check-s, etc.). Tweaked dependencies
to fix the problem.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, sleipnir
Configure feature
Description:
Added 'make trace' target.
Solution:
Added tracing to 1.7. This was done automatically in 1.6, but left out
of 1.7 until now (oops!).
Tracing in 1.7 only happens manually, when the user types 'make trace.'
Tracing automatically requires more framework than it's worth.
I also fixed a couple of tracing bugs and ran trace.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Before this checkin, 'gmake check-s' would fail if there was a file in
the current directory named 'check-s'.
This is fixed under gmake (not sure how to fix for other makes).
Solution:
check, progs, install, etc. are what gmake calls "phony" targets,
which means that no file should be created. These targets can be
specified by a line of the form
.PHONY: check progs install ...
Automake adds this line for targets it knows about, but HDF5 has a
lot of custom rules. This checkin adds a .PHONY line for those rules.
I believe that only gmake recognizes the .PHONY line (at least, pmake
doesn't seem to), but a partial solution is better than none.
This error should occur very rarely anyway (the user has to manually
create files with names like 'build-check-s' or '_test').
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Bug fix/feature
Description:
Added support for -shlib in h5fc and h5c++.
Made check-install use -shlib when only shared libraries have been installed.
Solution:
h5fc and h5c++ didn't recognize -shlib. Stole code from h5cc to link against
shared libraries.
When static libraries are disabled, the examples Makefiles will automatically
use the -shlib option to link against shared libraries. Thus,
--disable-static and make check-install should work together.
Platforms tested:
heping(disable-static, enable-static, fortran, c++), modi4 (disable-static, fortran, c++, parallel, enable-static)
Bug fix.
Description:
PGI v6.0-5 pgf90 compiler has a bug in Mstandard that caused compiling
of legal logical value to fail.
We also have second thought of imposing -Mstandard and -Mdclchk on users
since these flags are included in h5fc.
Solution:
Removed -Mstandard until we can fix the v6.0-5 compiler error
and moved -Mdclchk to DEBUG_FFLAGS so that it is used during development
mode but not imposed on users for production release.
Platforms tested:
heping: production and development mode using v6.0-4 compiler.
mir: production and development mode using v6.0-4 compiler.
Bug fix
Description:
Failed parallel tests now cause make to exit with an error.
Solution:
Edited config/conclude.am to throw an error if parallel test programs fail.
Platforms tested:
heping, modi4
Bug fix.
Description:
The previous way of detecting the MPICH version fails if the suspected
$CC does not give the expected MPICH version information. Though no
consequence, it generates error messages that alarm users.
Also, mpich2 gives the version information as if it were mpich v1.0.2
which was incorrectly included as an earlier version of the origianl
mpich.
Solution:
Implemented a more robust code to detect the version and narrow the
recognition down to v1.2.0-v1.2.5. Also, the code were duplicated in
two files (linux-gnulibc1 and ia64-linux-gnu). Combined them into a
new file called mpich.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping using mpicc and mpich2/mpicc and also in tg-ncsa.
Misc. update:
Updated MANIFEST.
Description:
Add source code copyright notice; comment symbols vary by type of file.
Platforms tested:
No changes that should cause any problems. Nonetheless, the tree will
be checked out fresh and tests run immediately post-commit.
Bug fix
Description:
Fixed config file for apple powerpcs. Should detect xlf more
often (though not infallibly).
Should disable shared libraries when xlf is being used.
Solution:
Since neither xlf nor f95 have "version" options (which could
be used to identify which compiler is being used), the config
file checks if the fortran compiler is named 'xlf' (or /path/xlf).
If not, it assumes the compiler must be f95.
xlf is still the default if no compiler is named at all.
Platforms tested:
pommier (change only to mac-specific config file)
bug fix.
Description:
When a parallel test script test fails, make would continue because the
way it was setup inside a for loop. Fixed it by issuing an exit 1 inside
the loop.
There was also a typo error in the newer command comparision that it
must be $${chkname} in order to be valid. Also, the test script itself
was not checked in the newer lists. All fixed.
Platforms tested:
h5committested and also hand tested in heping pp mode.
Code cleanup
Description:
Removed Fortran type sizes from config/* files.
Solution:
These lines weren't doing anything anymore; they've been replaced by automatic
type generation. This is just housekeeping to remove them from
the config/* files.
Platforms tested:
mir, sol, modi4
New feature.
Description:
Added the time command to the make check target to report time usage
of the execute of each test and test scripts. This gives us some idea
how long each test takes and some vague idea it is compute bound or
not.
powerpc-ibm-aix5.x:
Change $RUNPARALLEL default setting to allow it being invoked by the
time command.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Feature
Description:
Added H5_CFLAGS, etc. to 1.7 branch.
Now compilation flags can be put in H5_*FLAGS and they'll be used when
building hdf5 but not in h5cc.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Description: The API function H5Tis_hard() which was recently checked
in has been renamed to H5Tcompiler_conv() to be more descriptive. No
other changes.
Platforms tested: fuss - simple change.
Misc. update: config/lt_vers.am to update libtool version.

Description:
Same bug as was just checked in for v16. Do the complicated
derived datatype check for compilers named mpiicc in addition to
mpicc.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
tidy up.
Description:
MPE option created *.clog file whenever it is executed in MPI.
The cleanup of *.clog files were done in individual Makefile.in.
Often, it is forgotten.
Solution:
Moved the cleaning of *.clog files to CHECK_CLEANFILES in commence.am
so that it is applied whenever check-clean is called.
Platforms tested:
heping pp using MPE.
Bug fixes
Description:
This checkin fixes an occasional error on kelgia on sol during distclean.
It also causes test scripts to depend properly on the programs they're
supposed to be testing.
Solution:
The kelgia bug was due to some files being cleaned by automake and manually.
Removed the manual cleaning in src/Makefile.am.
Test script dependencies now need to be specified manually, since the
makefile can't guess what they test from their name. Currently all test
scripts in a given directory have a single list of dependencies--this was
easy and seems to be sufficient.
These dependencies are listed in the SCRIPT_DEPEND variable in the Makefile.am.
Platforms tested:
heping, mir, modi4, sol
Misc. update:
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.
minor tidy up.
Description:
Changed both test programs and test scripts to use the same suffixes
(.chkexe and .chklog). Changed from .log to .chklog to avoid running
into potential conflicts by other "things" (e.g., config.log).
Tested:
Heping.
Update & feature
Added a new cached data conversion setting.
Added -DH5_FLOPS to CPPFLAGS for compiling. Had used the builtin
__PUMAGON__ but H5_TFLOPS is more meaningful.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Flops.
Misc. update:
Bug fix and improvement.
Description:
The test output were not displayed for parallel tests.
The serial tests output were always displayed whether the test was
actually ran this time or not.
Solution:
Moved the display of test output inside the target where the actual
tests are run.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping using pp and fortran.
Bug fix and code minor cleanup.
Description:
The attempt to redirect stderr together to the log files were
done in the wrong order such that stderr output goes to where
stdout WAS. Fixed that.
Code minor cleanup--use shell variables to hold the name of the
log file and the test instead of generating them repeatedly. This
makes easier code reading, less crowded and avoid typos.
Only conclude.in is changed. The Makefile.in changes are all
derived from automake.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Misc. update:
Port to Red Storm
Description:
Initial version to configure for SNL Red Storm. To configure for it, do
./configure --host=x86_64-redstorm-linux
Platforms tested:
Tested in Red-storm. Many things are still failing but this will
make the configure part easier.
Misc. update:
Makefile feature
Description:
'make check-clean' now cleans *.h5 files created by tests as well as
.log and .chkexe files.
Solution:
check-clean is now a separate target in its own right, which cleans less
than mostlyclean (check-clean < mostlyclean < clean < distclean).
Platforms tested:
mir, heping, modi4 (serial and parallel)
Feature: check-clean target
Description:
'make check-clean' cleans up output files from tests.
Solution:
Tests create foo.chkexe and foo.log files. Scripts create foo.chksh and
foo.logsh files. 'make check-clean' will clean these files up so that
the tests can be re-run.
Also suppressed some not-very-useful output of Makefiles when it would
echo commands.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4
Misc. update:
Configuration feature
Description:
Serial test output is now stored in log files and printed when all tests
in a directory complete, or when a test fails. This should make test output
more readable and useful.
Also made changes to clean up ii_files directories that are created by some
C++ compilers/linkers.
Also fixed a few minor Makefile bugs.
Solution:
When serial tests run, their output is saved in *.log or *.logsh. While
running, tests only print when they begin and when they complete; their
more specific output (from the log file) is printed if the test fails or
when all tests have completed.
Comments welcome.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4 (parallel and serial), copper, shanti
Bug fix
Description:
Update Makefiles now that docs are no longer in main hdf5 tree.
Solution:
Changed root-level Makefile.am not to recurse into docs tree.
Removed docs Makefiles from configure.in.
Removed config/commence-doc.am, since it is no longer used.
Platforms tested:
mir (change to Makefiles only)
Bug fixes
Description:
A number of minor changes to Makefiles. Some files will now be cleaned
properly, some comments are more informative, etc.
Platforms tested:
heping, mir, modi4
Updating phase 2 work of collective IO
Description:
When the size is bigger than some value for MPI derived data type, mpich 1.2.5 and lower
version won't work any more, so in the configuration file, we will check the version number
and switch from collective IO to independent IO by turning off complex derived datatype.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux 2.4, AIX 5.1, Linux 2.4 IA64 and IRIX 6.5
Misc. update:

Misc. update:
Description: -xopnemp=stabs linking flag is needed on Solaris 2.9
in order to build Fortran library.
Solution: Added the flag to LDFLAGS if system version is 5.9
I don't really like the fix since this flag is now always added
for 5.9 systems even if Fortran is not enabled. If someone has
a better solution, please let me know :-)
Platforms tested: shanti, sol
Misc. update:
Description: Removed -DH5_ABSOFT flag for C compiler when Absoft f95 compiler
was used; this flag is not needed anymore since we automatically construct
names of C functions called from Fortran.
Solution:
Platforms tested: pommier
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
The ".chksh" file for a test script was being created in the "source"
location rather than the build location. This can cause problems when
multiple builds are running because "slower" machines will see the ".cshsh"
file from faster machines and will not run the test script as they should.
Solution:
Use 'basename' command to strip off the path of the script and create
the ".chksh" file in the build location.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
h5committest
bug fix.
Description:
-nt is not a universal option for the test command in all platforms.
The use of it in conclude.am cause some platforms to bark at the
Makefile generated.
Solution:
Created a command script bin/newer which tests if file1 is newer
than file2. Replace the "test file1 -nt file2" by
"newer file1 file2".
Platforms tested:
Tested in sol.
Bug fix
Description:
Fixed bugs that caused tests to be unable to find testhdf5.sh during
daily tests, and another that broke sol and shanti.
Solution:
When tests are run, their path is ./$testname .
When scripts are run, their path has no leading "./". Fixed.
Sol and shanti don't recognize the -e option for test, but they do know
-f. Fixed.
Also modified release notes.
Platforms tested:
mir, shanti, heping
Feature: tests now use parallel make and only run once
Description:
When make is invoked in parallel (using the -j option), several tests will
now be run simultaneously. This should speed up testing on a number of
systems.
When a test passes, it creates a foo.chkexe or foo.chksh file, which prevents
the test from running again unless the test or library changes.
Solution:
Most of the changes live in config/conclude.am. Added *.chkexe and *.chksh
files to the list of files to be cleaned at "make mostlyclean" time.
Parallel tests still run one at a time, but use the same make instructions
as serial tests.
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene, sleipnir, pommier, copper, modi4 (some errors occurred, probably
due to the test being run before updating hdf5. Will re-run tests after
checkin.)
Adding supports for cygwin
Description:
g95 needs special fortran flags to make it work cygwin.
Solution:
Add the flag on cygwin config file.
Now gcc, g++ and g95 are supported on cygwin.
Platforms tested:
cygwinNT_5.1, Linux 2.4
Misc. update:
bug fix
Description:
check-s and check-p were set as pre-requistics of test. They
would get executed in parallel if parallel make is used. This
could cause problems since serial tests are used to be executed
before parallel tests. It is not known if it is always okay to
run serial and parallel tests in simultantously.
Solution:
Change check-s and check-p as actions of the target test so
that they get executed sequnentially.
Platforms tested:
heping PP.
Added check-s and check-p targets.
Description:
Added check-s and check-p targets to 1.7 branch to match changes to 1.6
branch. Now parallel and serial tests can be run separately.
Platforms tested:
mir, modi4, copper
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:
Description: Altix configuration file used icc for the default C++ compiler.
Since cobalt moved to Intel 8.1, C++ compilation failed.
Solution: Changed icc to icpc for the default C++ compiler on Altix.
Platforms tested: cobalt
Misc. update:
Cray X1 Port
Description:
Porting 1.7 branch to Cray X1. With these changes, HDF5 builds, but
there are some errors in the tests. Working on the errors.
Solution:
Added nv1-cray file to config directory.
Cleaned up some code in hl/c++ that was causing compiler to complain.
Platforms tested:
Cray X1, mir, sleipnir
Misc. update:
Update config/lt_vers.am
Description:
My version number bump to config/lt_vers.am somehow didn't get checked
in with the rest of the metadata cache API mods.
Solution:
Bumped the version numbers again, and try checking in the file again.
Platforms tested:
None -- but see previous checkin of metadata cache API additions.
Misc. update:
New feature.

Misc. update:
Purpose:
collective chunk IO support for AIX 5.x
Description:
NCSA just updated its poe version, this new version will support
MPI complicated derived data type.
So update our configuration file for AIX 5.x.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
copper, no need for others since only AIX 5.x will be affected.
Misc. update:
Description:
Many warnings about duplicate symbols for various members in the std.
Solution:
Temporarily added -qweaksymbol to suppress linker messages warning
of duplicate symbols since these warnings are harmless.
Note from pSeries and AIX Information Center:
When compiling C++ programs containing extern inline functions,
you can use the -qweaksymbol compiler option to suppress linker
messages warning of duplicate symbols.
Hoping that a better solution is suggested or the problem will be
handled by the compiler in the future.
Platforms tested:
AIX 5.1 (copper)
Feature - libtool shared library versioning
Description:
Libtool provides a mechanism for different versions of the same shared
library to be distinguished. Now this is applied to HDF5 when it is
built as a shared library.
Solution:
The version number is stored in config/lt_vers.am, and included in
src/Makefile.am.
This number will be automatically updated by bin/h5vers; developers
only need to update it when they change the API.
*** IMPORTANT ***
Any time the API changes, the version number in config/lt_vers.am must
be updated!
Platforms tested:
mir, eirene, verbena, modi4
Misc. update:
Turning off collective irregular selection feature for this platform
because the MPI package doesn't support MPI complicated derived data
type.
Description:
Solution:
Add the macro hdf5_mpi_complex_derived_datatype_works=${hdf5_mpi_complex_derived_datatype_works='no'}
at the end of config file.
Platforms tested:
Won't affect other platform and too minor to go to PSC cluster for testing.
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:
Bug fix
Description:
On some machines, $RUNSERIAL variable needs to be used to run
tests. Set $RUNTESTS (which is used for non-parallel tests) to
be $RUNSERIAL in configure.am.
Also, since I was updating all Makefiles.in anyway, I updated
commence.am to point to autotools installs in AFS instead of
those on heping.
Platforms tested:
mir, sleipnir, modi4, copper
Purpose:
"Bug fix"
Description:
Hardcoded Makefiles to use /bin/sh instead of letting configure
detect shell automatically. This is what v1.6 does, and avoids
problems on janus.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, mir
Purpose:
Added C++ wrapper for Packet Table API.
Description:
Added macro for high-level C++ library (LIBH5CPP_HL), which changes every
Makefile.in.
Added directories for high-level C++ library (though currently only Packet
Table API is supported).
Added both C++ source and tests.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, mir, modi4
Misc. update:
Description: This commit is actually revision 1.155, which is the 3rd step of
changing conversion test. It's for conversion from floating-point to integer.
In this step, the source buffer is filled in with normalized and denormalized
floating-point values. For the normalized values, it starts from FLT(DBL, or
LDBL)_MIN, multiplied by 10(10000 for double, 100000000 for long double) for
the next value, until reaches to FLT_MAX. For denormalized values, the
exponent part is always 0. Mantissa part starts with 000...001, 000...011,
000...111, until reaches to 111...111. The same is with negative values.
There're also fixes in config/hpux11.00 for kelgia where default macro table
size wasn't big enough to handle the big macro in dtypes.c.
Platforms tested: h5committest and kelgia.

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)
Bug fix
Description:
pmake (on modi4, for instance) complains about undefined variables
if it is run without the -V flag, which turns those errors to warnings.
Solution:
Added test to configure.in to see if $MAKE will allow Makefiles
with undefined variables. If not, sets -V flag in AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Ensured that all custom make targets use AM_MAKEFLAGS.
Also defined all variables that caused errors in top-level Makefile.am.
This means that pmake can be used to build hdf5 *from the top level
only*. To run make from a subdirectory, still need to use -V flag
(or use make or gmake).
Platforms tested:
modi4, heping, copper, sleipnir
Update port
Description:

Does not affect other platforms...
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Found the permanant fix to automake/CVS dependency problem
Solution:
Added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE macro to configure.in.
Now automake will never try to regenerate Makefiles, Makefiles.in,
configure, H5config.h, etc. when they are out of date, nor will it
print any warnings.
Developers should be very very careful to use reconfigure script,
and can add --enable-maintainer-mode flag to configure on heping
to regenerate these files correctly.
Platforms tested:
heping sleipnir copper
Bug fix
Description:
Configuration files' timestamps were incorrect.
Solution:
Update Makefiles.in. Also added correct paths to autotools on heping,
so heping build should be able to re-generate configuration files even
if they are still broken.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir
Bug fix
Description:
Dependencies between configure files (aclocal, configure.in, configure,
Makefiles.am and .in) are still causing Makefiles to try to run autotools
during build.
Solution:
Committed all Makefiles.in to update their timestamps.
As a temporary measure, forcibly prevented automake from running
autotools during build by redefining the variables it uses.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir (No changes to Makefile content)
Bug fix
Description:
Different compilers use different flags to include Fortran module files
Solution:
Changed boilerplate to use configure variable rather than hardcoded -M flag.

Description: The fix of the loss problem of the last 2 bytes of mantissa on sleipnir has
not been successful. It happens when converting from unsigned long long to long double.
The failure has been on and off.
Solution: Hard set a macro to disable unsigned long long->long double for FreeBSD until
a good solution is found to solve this elusive problem.
Platforms tested: sleipnir and fuss. Only sleipnir is concerned.
Misc. update:
Description: For HP-UX11.00, compiler's casting from 'long double' to most of
integers. A macro was hard set in config/hpux11.00 before.
Solution: Let configure detect this case and set the macro.
Platforms tested: kelgia, fuss, modi4. These systems are mainly concerned.
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.

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
Description: C++ build failed on kelgia. Binh-Minh fixed

Misc. update:
Bug Fix/Code Cleanup/Doc Cleanup/Optimization/Branch Sync :-)
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".
Platforms tested:

Changed -instances=global to -instances=static to avoid multiple
copies of template function verify_val.
Platforms tested:
SunOS 5.7 (arabica)
mpich 1.2.6 does not like the tweaking of using -O2 flag.
Comment out the Tweaking since it caused problems to mpich1.2.6.
Need to investigate the reasons and effects to tweak.
Platforms tested:
Tested in heping using mpich 1.2.6 and in eirene uisng mpich 1.2.6.
Port
Description:
Initial work for supporting GNU FORTRAN/F95 on FreeBSD. I think I've
got things mostly set up correctly, but I'm getting an internal compiler
error on one of the FORTRAN sources, so I'm not going to add this configuration
to the daily tests yet.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/GNU FORTRAN
Not tested in h5committest
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.
Improvement
Description:
Added strip option to PROD_CFLAGS to remove symbols for smaller
production file size.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
Last commit would impose $arch even if user has provided his own
$CFLAGS. Fixed it.
Removed the wording of gnu-flags inherited from the copy.
Platforms tested:
Tested in tg-ncsa.
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
Cache the gettimeofday_tz as yes.
Patches for conversion problems of Long Long, float, bottom bits, etc.
Platforms tested:
Tested in tflops only.
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
Restored correct setting of compilers (-Wall etc for debug flags
only, c99 by default,...) that were wiped out by the commits before.
Platforms tested:
Tested in TG-NCSA, both production and development mode.
(Still need to figure out the proper flag to use for Profile.)
Bug fix.
Description:
v8.0 -O3 infinite loops when compiling test/tselect.c. Use -O2.
Platforms tested:
Only tested in TG-NCSA, use both default and --disable-production options.
Update flags
Description:
Update gcc compiler flags to support the early gcc 4.0 snapshots available
on sleipnir
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/gcc 4.0 snapshot
Too minor to require h5committest
Improvement.
Description:
Change the default CC, F9X and CXX compilers from ecc/efc/ecc
to icc/ifort/icc because Intel keeps changing their compiler
names. This eliminated the warning messages that a wrong
compiler name is used.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Tg-login NCSA only since that is the only
IA64 platform on site.
Description: For Intel 8.1 compiler, C99 standard has to be enabled to define macro ULLONG_MAX in its own header file limits.h.
Solution: Add flag -std=c99 to Intel compiler if the version is 8.1.
Platforms tested: Tested v1.6 because this is a very simple change.
Bug fix
Description:
"Teach" the configure scripts about Intel 7.1 compilers, which don't have
_quite_ the same compiler flags
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (eirene)
Bug fix
Description:
Removed the cache values of sizeof signed and unsigned int_fast8_t
and int_fast16_t since the vendor changes them often.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Copper only since it affected it only.

Description:
When mpicc/mpif90 is a wrapper around a PGI compiler, turn on less
agressive optimization options to avoid testing errors.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (verbena)
Too minor to require h5committest
Code cleanup/bug fix
Description:
Remove the undocumented "$NOFP" shell variable which would allow production
builds without removing the stack frame. This was cascading between C and
FORTRAN builds and causing problems.
Solution:
Hard-code removing the stack frame for now. Users would have needed to
read the configure scripts anyway, so there's not really much benefit to the
extra knob. Users who need this functionality (production builds with stack
frames) are debugging probably, so they will need to modify the script and
build their own version of the library now.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 (verbena)
Too minor to require h5committest
Code cleanup
Description:
Default to using mpif90 if CC=mpicc and --enable-fortran flag is given,
but no F9X compiler is set.

Not tested with rest of h5committest platforms
Fix configure bug that appears on SDSC DataStar.
Description:
Two cached "sizeof"s in ./config/powerpc-ibm-aix5.x cause builds
on SDSC Datastar to choke.
Solution:
Commented out the offending "sizeof"s. Included comments indicating
the reason for the change.
Platforms tested:
copper
Misc. update:
n/a
Bug fix.
Description:
$CXX_BASENAME was not set yet if $CXX was pre-set to g++. In turn,
CXX_flags are not picking up the g++ values.
Solution:
The correct solution should be done in configure which should have
setup CXX_BASENAME if $CC is set before sourcing this file.
Put a special patch here for g++ for now.
(Also added the recognization of icc as another name for Intel
compilers.)
Platforms tested:
No h5committest but tested in TG-NCSA since these changes affected
the IA64 platform only.
Misc. update:
Fix to config for ia64-linux (C++)
Description:
missing character in config file
Solution:
add the missing character
Platforms tested:
'hal'
Misc. update:
Improvement and fix.
Description:
Improvement: allow user defined RUNSERIAL and RUNPARALLEL settings.
Added hdf5_cv_gettimeofday_tz cached value.
Platforms tested:
Janus (Tflops).
Improvement.
Description:
setup default setting for C++ API. Default to use the ecc compiler.
Platforms tested:
Tested in TG-ncsa which is the IA64 platform. None of the standard committest
platforms would have tested this change.
Misc. update:
Description: Added support for Absoft Fortran compiler
Solution: Modified configuration file to check which Fortran compiler is used
and set appropriate flags.
Platforms tested: verbena with pgf90 and Absoft f95 compilers
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance for MAC OSX
Description: Added support for Absoft Fortran compiler f95;
Ddefault compiler is set to IBM xlf.
Solution:
Platforms tested: pommier with xlf and Absoft f95 compilers
Misc. update:
bug fix.
Description:
The previous patch of -D__GNUC__ was causing failure in the
newer compiler. The previous failure could not be repeated
any more. So, removed it.
Platforms tested:
Tested only in TG-NCSA since the change affects only the ia64 platform.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
It uses the value of $ARCH as a gcc option but the linux clusters
at NCSA define $ARCH as environment variable with values that are
not a valid compiler option. That caused the configure to fail
because it was not able to compile at all.
Solution:
Change ARCH to lower case $arch (convention dictates environment
variables are upper cases.) Also preset $arch to null and do not
honor any pass it values.
Platforms tested:
Attempted to run h5committest but sol was failing due to /tmp
filled. Copper and verbena passed. Also passed in TG-NCSA.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Reduce compiler warnings on SGI IRIX
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
SGI IRIX6 (Cheryl's machine)

Description:
Add new warnings for gcc 3.4.x
Re-work production mode compile flags to work better.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Slight improvement.
Description:
Show directory name at the beginning and ending of running
make check in a directory. Together with the time stamp,
it will be easier to see how much time it takes to run all
the tests in one directory.
Platforms tested:
Eirene only.
Misc. update:
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:
Fix build on sparc64 platform for FreeBSD by modifying the config/gnu-flags
to not insert '-march=i686' on non-Intel platforms. (This change allows HDF5
to run correctly on all five of the main FreeBSD platforms... :-)
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest not run since it's a FreeBSD-specific fix.
Bug fix
Description:
Update threadsafe flags for FreeBSD and allow C++ to be built with
threadsafe enabled.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/C++ & thread-safe
Code cleanup/bug fix
Description:
Fix configuration files to allow 64-bit compilation of the library with
a 64-bit version of zlib.
Solution:
Moved important compiler flags settings from CC macro to CFLAGS macro.
Instead of setting CC (F9X, CXX) environment variable for compiling for 64-bit
code, users should just set the CFLAGS (FFLAGS, CXXFLAGS) to -q64.
Updated INSTALL file to reflect this change.
Platforms tested:
IBM p690 (copper) w/parallel, FORTRAN, C++, srcdir.
Platforms specific - h5committest does not apply.
Test cleanup
Description:
Move the perl postprocessing step on the .depend file out of the loop over
all the files, which should get rid of redundant rescanning of the .depend file.
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.4 IA64 (titan)
too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Update debugging and profiling flags to include more information.
Platforms tested:
IBM p690 (copper)
too obscure for h5committest
improvement.
Description:
Created an entry for 2.96 and added -Wno-long-long to the CFLAGS
to suppress the thousands of 'long long' warnings because we are
using it and we know it is not in the C89 standard.
Platforms tested:
Only in verbena.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Update gcc 3.4 flags to reduce optimization level to the same settings
as for gcc 3.0-3.3 due to code generation bugs at higher optimization levels.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Description: After titan updated ecc compiler, int64_t cannot be found.
Solution: Added -D__GNUC__ to CFLAGS to enable int64_t in /usr/include/stdint.h
Platforms tested: titan(titan specific)
Purpose: Maintenance
Description: Fortran APIs MAC OS X port for IBM XL Fortran compiler
Solution: Brought back changes from 1.6 branch
Platforms tested: pommier, h5comittested; this time h5committest
complained about copperpp directory and didn't run;
tests on verbena and sol passed.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Add special-case handling to floating-point conversion tests to avoid
problems with denormalized values on Cray T3E & T90 platforms. (Still not
working on Cray SV1, but at least it's closer).
Solution:
Detect denormalized values and don't try to operate on them on the Crays.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Cray T3E (hubble.cray.com)
Cray T90 (gypsy.cray.com)
Bug fix
Description:
Fix problems building on Debian Linux when Intel's "ecc" compiler is
not available.
Platforms tested:
Eyeballed - very trivial patch from user.
Update DEC compiler support
Description:
Updated DEC/Compaq compiler detection to handle DEC->Compaq switchover
in compiler version string.
Also, copied v5.x compiler flags to V6.x compiler flags and included the
-ieee and -misalign flags necessary for correct floating-point support.
Platforms tested:
Pittsburgh Alpha Cluster (lemieux.psc.edu)
Bug fix
Description:
If using g++ on HP-UX, the flags for aCC would be placed on the
command line. This was causing g++ to fail the configuration test.
Solution:
CHanged the test so that it's a case statement. If it's the aCC
compiler, then use those flags. Otherwise, don't specify flags. This
case statement can be modified to provide compiler-specific flags in
a similar way to other config/* files.
Platforms tested:
Hp-UX (Hp-UX specific change.)
Misc. update:
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:
Improvement
Description:
If the library is built in parallel mode, then name the "h5cc" and
"h5fc" programs "h5pcc" and "h5pfc" resp. This saves the user from
worrying about mixing serial and parallel builds of the library and
having to specify the pathnames and so-forth.
Platforms tested:
Linux (w/ parallel & Fortran)
Modi4 (w/ parallel & Fortran)
Sol (Serial & Fortran & C++)
Misc. update:
Updated release/docs/RELEASE
"bug fix", sort of.

be generating bad code for the atomic type conversions now...
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.4 (eirene, verbena)
h5committest not necessary, this is a GNU-only change.
Bug fix
Description:
The MPI_File_set_size() routine on ASCI Red is not able to extend files
so that they are larger than 2GB.
Solution:
Add an extra macro which controls whether MPI_File_set_size() can handle
>2GB offsets or if our "older" way of reading a byte, then writing a byte at
the appropriate offset should be used.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
h5committest
Purpose: Bug fix (by Bill Wendling)
Description: When efc compiler was used, FFLAGS were not set up
to deal with !DEC amd !MS dirctive and to use
-Vaxlib flag for exit call.
Solution: Modify the file to set up the flag.
Platforms tested: titan
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
In a fit of what can only be described as brain-damagedness, on blue,
frost, etc. (AIX, really), when you include the zlib.h header file
and are specifying that the compiler accept ANSI C, zlib.h undefines
the "const" keyword if you don't have the variable STDC
defined...*boggle*.
Solution:
Included a -DSTDC as a commandline flag for the compiler.
Platforms tested:
Snow (AIX 5.0)
Only affects AIX machines, so no h5committest needed.
Misc. update:
Bug Fix
Description:
C++ on Irix 6.5 needs some special libraries (libCio or some such
thing). These were defined using the DEFAULT_LIBS macro. However,
they weren't being placed into the Makefiles since it wasn't
AC_SUBST'ed in configure.in and wasn't declared in commence.in.
Solution:
Added to configure.in and also added and commence.in
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (C++, small change and only Irix specific)
Misc. update:
Update/Fix
Description:
The Dependencies files weren't begin generated properly for C++.
Solution:
Modified the "dependencies" script to use "top_srcdir" only instead
of "srcdir", which tended to confuse matters. Regenerated the
Dependencies files.
Platforms tested:
Arabica (Small changes)
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:
Bug fix
Description:
The "prefix?=..." is not recognized by all make commands. Even some
older gmake do not recognize it. The result is that "make install"
failed for many platforms (AIX, Solaris 2.7, HPUX 11, ...) because
when they tried to install at $(prefix)/lib, it becomes /lib since
$(prefix) is not defined.
Solution:
Restore it back to the previous
prefix=...
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Also ran in-place build using vendor make in kelgia, arabica
and copper.
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
"prefix" variable was always being set, instead of only being set if the
user hadn't set it yet.
Solution:
Changed "prefix=<foo>" to "prefix?=<foo>".
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir)
Checked in gmake manual to make certain syntax is the same (it is).
Purpose:
Bug Fix
Description:
Changes needed to make "pmake" work on Modi4.
Solution:
Needed to add some null macro defines in the commence.in files.
Needed to remove a dependence on LIBH5TEST in the fortran make
since LIBH5TEST isn't used in the fortran stuff.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (small change)
Misc. update:
Improvement
Description:
RUNPARALLEL is setup with default value when --enable-parallel but only if
CC is not set.
Solution:
set RUNPARALLEL to default value of using poe when --enable-parallel
or when an MPI compiler (e.g. mpcc_r) is used.
Platforms tested:
Copper for both 32 and 64 bit, serial and parallel.
(32bit parallel had a hang problem in configure which is a different but
known problem.)
Note that one still need to setenv AR "ar -X64" for 64bit configure.
Misc. update:
Speed up
Description:
Cache the settings of all number types to save configure time.
Reduced configure time by a whopping 40% (11m to 7m :-)
Platforms tested:
Sasn100 only (janus frontend.)
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:
Code cleanup
Description:
Remove special optimization and debugging flags for obsolete versions of
gcc.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir)
h5committest not needed.
Feature
Description:
Sometimes the total build process take a long time, especially in
parallel systems. Need some idea if some times are taking way
too long to process.
Solution:
Added timestamps marking the beginning and ending of tests in
one directory. This gives a rough idea of how much time the
tests use.
Platforms tested:
Tested only in Eirene since this is just a makefile thing and only
involve a simple command like echo and date.
Misc. update:
Code Cleanup
Description:
Warning messages were being produced by the "make" program because
the "docdir" was being specified twice as a target in the generated
Makefiles. This is because the "EXAMPLESDIR" was also defined as
"docdir".
Solution:
Made "EXAMPLESDIR" unique for C, Fortran, and C++ in the commence.in
file and removed EXAMPLESDIR from the Makefile.ins
Platforms tested:
Dangermouse (only affects make system, not code).
Misc. update:
Improvement
Description:
Added an explanation of using $HDF5_PARAPREFIX for Parallel tests.
Platforms tested:
h5committested (using sol instead of arabica) plus eirene(pp).
Misc. update:
Purpose: Maintenance for T3E
Description: Cray updated T3E to run unicosmk2.0.6.X
Configuration failed.
Solution: Created new unicosmk2.0.6.X files in the config and fortran/config
directories and added them to MANIFEST
Platforms tested: Cray T3E
Misc. update:
Initial pass for gcc3.3 support
Description:
Added section for gcc 3.3+ and cleaned up the gcc 3.2+ section a little.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.8 (sleipnir) w/gcc 3.3 snapshot
Triple check unneeded.
Bug Fix
Description:
The compression stuff includes the "zlib.h" header file. This
file on the SP machine was including another file which would
#define const as nothing if the compiler wasn't a Standard C
compiler.
Solution:
Included a flag to make the compiler into an ANSI compiler.
Platforms tested:
Blue (Only affects powerPC computers)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with 1.4 branch
Description: 1.5 didn't have unicos10.0.X configuration files
for both C and fortran.
Solution: Added the files
Platforms tested: CRAY T90IEEE
Misc. update:
Feature (bug fix)
Description:
Added a new configure file specifically for the IA64 platform
in which ecc and efc are the default compilers.
Also added all the Fortran special setup in the fortran version
Platforms tested:
no h5committest since this is a IA64 platform stuff.
Tested in Titan.
Misc. update:
MANIFEST Updated.
Bug fix
Description:
test/dtypes failed badly when -O is used. Trying to recompile test/*
code without -O did not eliminate the errors. So, the failure is
deep in the hdf5 library.
Solution:
For now, removed '-O' from $PROD_CFLAGS so that enable-production will use
no optimization. Need to find out what exactly trigger the errors.
Platforms tested:
Did not do h5committest because this is an AIX configure change only.
Tested it in Copper. Need to test it on other offsite machines.
Misc. update:
Updated release_docs/RELEASE.
New test feature
Description:
The various virtual file drivers (multi, family, core, ...)
are not tested automatically. One would have to do it by hand
by setenv HDF5_DRIVER <driver> and then do gmake check in test/.
Solution:
Added a new target, check-vfd, which will take the list from
$VFD_LIST and run 'make check' with each of its members.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
Since check-vfd is not invoked by default, I went to each machine
to invoke them by hand. The target worked fine but there were
errors reported from those driver tests. (Those errors were beyond
the scope of this make target test.)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
The $RUNPARALLEL is set even when parallel mode is not used.
Then it is used to launch some parallel natured test (e.g. example/ph5example)
which is not compiled to be so. That created some unnecessary problem
in some situation (e.g., Copper cannot "poe a.out" from an AFS space
because of the missing AFS token system bug.
Solution:
Setup RUNPARALLEL only when parallel mode is enabled.
Platforms tested:
Only tested in Copper since the change applies to IBM machines only.
(note that v1.4 will fail by default due to a problem when the default
production mode is used. But that is an error not related to this config file)
Misc. update:
Purpose: Catching up with C library
Description: Fortran Library would not configure correctly with PGI compilers
because configure couldn't find any appropriate filesin the config
directories.
Solution: Added new files for PGI compilers support on Linux 2.4
Platforms tested: arabica(C and F90), burrwhite (pgcc and pgf90), modi4 (F90 and parallel)
Misc. update:
Bug fix.
Description:
-O2 -finline-functions still causes production builds on eirene to fail.
Solution:
Downgrade optimization on gcc 2.95.x (x<3) to -O -finline-functions
Platforms tested:
Linux 2.2 (eirene)
Bug fix w/gcc 2.95.x where x<3
Description:
-O3 optimization level causes problems for gcc 2.95.2 on eirene
Solution:
Only enable -O3 if using gcc 2.95.x (where x>=3) or gcc 3
Otherwise, use older setting of -O2 -finline-functions
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir)
Linux 2.2 (eirene)
bug fix, features.
Description:
removed the cache of sizeof_long since it varies between 32 and 64 bits.
Set xlc and mpcc_r as the default compiler for serial and parallel modes.
Added -D_LARGE_FILES by default to support large file size.
Added gcc gnu-flags when gcc compiler is used (not working yet.)
Platforms tested:
Tested in Copper only since that is the only AIX machine on site.
Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up miscellaneous warnings which have crept into the code.
Fix "_POSIX_C_SOURCE not defined" warning on FreeBSD.
Adjust gcc compiler flags to be more concise for production mode.
Refactor the H5O code so that there is a stronger boundary between code
in the H5O package and code in the library which just calls H5O routines.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel and gcc 2.95.4 & gcc 3.2.2
Misc. update:
Update MANIFEST if you add or remove any file.
Bug Fix (Bug #806)
Description:
When compiling/installing with the command "make install" (without
performing a "make" beforehand) the tools weren't being made. This
was because the `install' command in the Makefiles only relied upon
public libraries, not private ones (which the one in the tools
directory is).
Solution:
Had the `install' command be dependent upon an "AUX_LIB" macro which
includes libraries which are needed but aren't distributed (that is,
they're staticly compiled).
Platforms tested:
Linux
Cleanup
Description:
Cleanup gcc cases to be more general about gcc 3.x, now that gcc 3.2 has
been released.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) - not a significant enough change to worry about
multi-platform testing.
Porting to AIX 5.x
Description:
These have been tested out in v1.4. Folding them in here.
aclocal.m4:
Snow's names were not included in the special hack.
Added its names in.
Removed the trailing * in pacific.llnl.gov too.
configure.in:
fortran/configure.in:
Added a case to group all AIX 5.* versions as aix5.x. This allows
them to share one common config/*aix5.x file.
