New test
Description:
Add more regression tests for redistributing leafs in a level-2 B-tree
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Too minor to require h5committest
Description: On SGI Altix(cobalt) Linux, wrong values were printed out for enum data type
members. No apparent reason was discovered.
Solution: use another pointer to the buffer containing the member value. It seems fix the
problem.
Platforms tested: cobalt - simple change, where the bug was discovered.
new tests
Description:
added a new test for detach_scale, some minor changes in the the detach_scale function
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
Improvement.
Description:
Added a command to dump all environment variables at the
beginning of the snapshot test.
Platforms tested:
Attempted to test in eirene but aborted it after seeing the
dumping because it was doing things to the current/ of daily
test directory. *arg!*
bug fix.
Description:
When MPE library is used, it prints two extra message lines that
interfere with the expected output.
Solution:
Filter out those two lines of text from stderr.
Also added a provision to print the whole generated output when failure
is detected.
Platforms tested:
Tested in copper, serial, parallel and parallel with MPE.
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
Add a test case for scaleoffset filter (integer type). For debugging purpose only.
The test case is not turned on.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
heping, copper, arabica
Misc. update:
New feature.
Description:
Add H5Zset_scaleoffset function for setting up the scaleoffset filter.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
heping, copper, arabica
Misc. update:
new test
Description:
added a test for the iterator function that verifies if the scales meet certain criteria (having the same size as
the dimensions sizes of the dataset and they are not empty datasets)
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux
solaris
Misc. update:
bug fix/new feature.
Description:
(committing changes made by Leon.)
ph5diff now is a real program by itself. It has its
own main (ph5diff_main.c).
Codes common to h5diff and ph5diff are in h5diff_common.c.
Removed the hack that hide failures from testh5diff.sh.
Platforms tested:
heping(serial, pp), sol (pp), copper(pp).
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
modi4 dies during build with strange errors.
The root cause of these is a two-year-old hack in HDF5's libtool
script that only takes effect on IRIX.
Solution:
Edited the libtool hack (by editing ltmain.sh) to correct a bug in
the hack.
Also made sure that compiler-specific DEFAULT_LIBS are used
when linking.
Platforms tested:
sleipnir, copper, modi4, sol
Bug fix
Description:
While commenting out some code in a Makefile.am, I missed two lines.
Solution:
Commented out those lines.
Platforms tested:
verbena, heping
Misc. update:
Description: When hardware conversion between "long double" and integers was added to the
library, the "double" used in H5T_CONV_Fx and H5T_CONV_xF for alignment wasn't big enough for
"long double". New macros H5T_CONV_Lx and H5T_CONV_xL were added to use "long double" for
alignment. But later it's found out the new macros were not necessary.
Solution: Took out the new macros H5T_CONV_Lx and H5T_CONV_xL; change the "double" to "long
double" for alignment in H5T_CONV_Fx and H5T_CONV_xF.
Platforms tested: h5committest
Bug fix.
Description:
ph5diff is still being fixed.
Changed this to report all failures but will not flag them as
errors so that daily tests can continue. Will be fixed soon.
Platforms tested:
Tested in sol (pp) where it has most failures.
Misc. update:
Configure feature
Description:
Changed bin/reconfigure.sh script to use autotools in AFS.
Solution:
Previously, the only machine with the correct versions of autoconf and
automake was heping. Now both tools are installed in AFS, so
in theory any hdf machine can be used to run the reconfigure script.
Platforms tested:
heping, eirene, verbena.
On sleipnir and arabica the autotools were unable to find a version
of m4 that was new enough for them.
Misc. update:
Description: At line 3564, the command H5T_bit_set(s, src.u.f.mpos, 1, FALSE)
has unclear intention to me. Before I figure it out, move it to line 3590,
where I think it should be. This did fix some data conversion.
Platforms tested: fuss - already test it for v1.6.
bug fix
Description:
in 1 case when there was not a requested layout, the original chunk was not preserved
Solution:
Platforms tested:
linux (small change)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
Bug fix
Description:
Fixed the error on copper where output would match, except the worker tasks are forcefuly terminated at the end.
Solution:
If an exit code other than 0 was returned, the
parallel environment would assume that there
was an error and would terminate all other
tasks. Because h5repack relies on the return
value of h5diff, it was necessary to return
values other than 0. Fixed by having parallel
runs of h5diff always return 0, whereas the
return value of serial runs is unchanged.
Platforms tested:
copper
Misc. update:
New feature & bug fix
Description:
Allow root node to split, forming a level 2 B-tree
Fix error where wrong record was being copied up to parent node for a 2
node redistribution on the "right" side of the B-tree.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)
Bug fix
Description:
Arabica exhibited strange errors when linker found wrong versions of
header files. This happened because include directories were
given to linker in the wrong order.
Solution:
Move include directories from AM_CFLAGS variable to INCLUDES
variable to put them before CPPFLAGS variable. Trust me, it works.
This bug may also have contributed to strange errors on other platforms
(kelgia?).
Platforms tested:
copper, sleipnir, arabica.
(h5dump broke while building on arabica, but this happened in
a clean checkout, too).
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
Description: For hardware conversion from integers to "long double" on AMD machine, the test
failed because the size of "long double"(can be 16 bytes) is bigger than the precision(80 bits).
There can be some garbage in the unused bytes in "long double". That caused failure during
byte comparison.
Solution: Clean these unused bytes before comparison.
Platforms tested: mir and fuss; simple change
New feature & code cleanup
Description:
Change some references from 'keys' to 'records', which is more correct for
this implementation.
Added feature to allow preemptive 3 node record redistributions (for leaves
only currently)
Added feature to perform preemptive 3->4 node splits (for leaves only
currently)
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Solaris 2.9 (shanti) w/purify
Too minor to require h5committest
