Reviewed and revised version information for unix daily tested machines in supported a
d tested platforms sections.
Added description of LD_LIBRARY_PATH change to configure and using scripts to compile
nd run installed example files to Bug Fixes/Configuration section.
Text change only.
Remove all traces of MPI-POSIX VFD and GPFS detection/code.
Remove remaining traces of stream VFD.
Remove testpar/t_posix_compliant test (it's not actually verifying anything).
Clean up H5D__mpio_opt_possible() further.
Moved environment variable that disables MPI collective operations into
MPI-IO VFD (instead of it being in src/H5S.c).
A few other small code cleanups.
Tested on:
Mac OSX/64 10.9.2 (amazon) w/parallel & serial
Description:
With optimization enabled, gcc 4.8 inserts garbage into the padding bytes of
floating point types when assigning from a literal constant. This caused
problems when H5detect.c scanned the bits in floating point types to determine
their properties.
Modified H5detect.c to scan for padding before further analyzing the type, and
to ignore all information in the padding areas. Also removed code that
temporarily disabled optimization.
Tested: jam, koala, ostrich, platypus (h5committest)
1. The file states that:
NOTE:
We are no longer actively supporting MinGW as of 1.8.5.
2. It is not tested for v1.8.11.
3. If we ever supports it again, it can be "restored" from previous
release (e.g. v1.8.10).)
HDFFV-8214 - h5repack failed converting small chunked dataset (size < 1K) to contiguous layout.
Description:
h5repack failed converting small chunked dataset (size < 1K) to contiguous layout.
The first case was when chunk dim is bigger than the dataset dim (at leat one), h5repack failed with displaying error stacks.
The other case is when chunk dim is smaller than the dataset dim, h5repack failed to change layout.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), emu (solaris-BE),fred (mac64-LE), Windows (32-LE cmake), cmake (jam)
HDFFV-7643 - h5diff - incorrect exit-code returns for extra attribute exist
Description:
h5diff: Fixed to return correct exit code 1 when detect unique
attribute. Prior to this fix, h5diff returned exit code 0 indicating
two files are identical.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), fred (mac64-LE), emu (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), cmake (jam)
Since this is a testing code error that does not affect the function of the
library or tools, I started a new "Testing" section for this sort of changes.
Description:
Adds 2 new API functions, H5Dscatter and H5Dgather. H5Dscatter retrieves data
from a specified callback function and scatters it into a selection, defined by
a supplied dataspace, within a supplied memory buffer. H5Dgather gathers data
from a selection within a supplied memory buffer and passes it in a contiguous
form to a supplied callback function. Added tests for these functions
Tested: jam, ostrich, koala (h5committest); ummon
HDFFV-8145 h5diff slowness with version >= 1.8.7
Description:
Improved speed when comparing HDF5 files with lots of attributes. Much slower performance was identified with release version from 1.8.7 to 1.8.10 compared to 1.8.6.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), Windows (32-LE cmake), cmake (jam)
HDFFV-8012 - h5repack changes max dims and cause failure if only "-f none" is used without changing layout for chunked dataset when a chunk dim is bigger than a dataset dim
Description:
"h5repack -f <obj>:NONE <file.h5> out.h5" command failed if source file contains chunked dataset and a chunk dim is bigger than a dataset dim.
Another issue is that the command changed max dims if chunk dim is smaller than the dataset dim.
These issue occurred when dataset size is smaller than 64k (compact size limit)
Fixed them.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), cmake (jam)
HDFFV-5919 - GMQS: h5diff - The number of object difference is not consistent between dataset and group/type when attribute(s) have differences
Description:
Object differences are not consistent between dataset and group/datatype when their attribute(s) have differences. This is because attribute(s) differences is not accumulated to group or datatype object’s difference, but accumulated to dataset difference.
To fix, do not accumulate attribute difference to dataset difference. This is referred to h5diff’s default behavior and also past report from users that users were confused by the accumulated behavior. (also can’t figure out only for dataset difference , also hard to spot dataset difference when it has lots of attributes or differences)
This also lead to fix inconsistent format indicating difference between dataset and group/datatype object.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), cmake (jam)
HDFFV-8143 Provide a routine(s) for telling the user why the library broke collective data access
Description:
Added H5Pget_mpio_no_collective_cause() function that retrive reasons why the collective I/O was broken during Read/Write IO access.
Reasons to break collective I/O:
- SET_INDEPENDENT
- DATATYPE_CONVERSION
- DATA_TRANSFORMS
- MPIPOSIX
- NOT_SIMPLE_OR_SCALAR_DATASPACES (NULL Space)
- POINT_SELECTIONS
- NOT_CONTIGUOUS_OR_CHUNKED_DATASET (Compact or External-Storage)
- FILTERS
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE)
Address HDFFV-7942 - h5diff: incorrect result for comparing attribute data with different type size in same class
Description:
When comparing attribute data values with same type class but different size, the result was incorrect. It was due to the size difference and got truncated.
Fixed to match up the smaller type size to big type size like what dataset does.
Tested:
jam (linux32-LE), koala (linux64-LE), ostrich (linuxppc64-BE), tejeda (mac32-LE), linew (solaris-BE), Windows (32-LE cmake), cmake (jam)
