Adding routines to test irrgular hyperslab selection inside one chunk.
Description:
For debugging purpose, tests are turned off now.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
AIX 5.1 and Linux 2.4 with parallel enabled.
Misc. update:
Adding general MPI derived datatype testing code.
Description:
The testing code will not be tested. The purpose of checking in is for
better debugging later. HDF5 routine or daily test should not be aware of this.
Solution:
Platforms tested:
Copper(AIX 5.1),
Heping(Linux 2.4 + MPICH 1.2.6).
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Relax restrictions on parallel I/O to allow compressed, chunked datasets
to be read in parallel (collective access will be degraded to independent
access, but will retrieve the information still).
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
IRIX64 6.5 (modi4)
h5committest
Cleanup
Description:
Remove old hack for H5Eget_auto() which is not needed any more.
Reverse H5E_set_auto_stack(H5EDEFAULT,...) back to previous
code of H5E_set_auto(...). Same for H5E_get_auto_stack.
Platforms tested:
Only tested in Eirene PP as the change is pretty straight
forward.
Misc. update:
Add test to verify the fix of the parallel I/O mode confusion bug.
Description:
While the parallel I/O mode confusion bug is fixed, an automated
regression test for this bug would be useful.
Solution:
Added a modified version of the original bug demonstration program
to testphdf5.
Platforms tested:
copper
h5committested
eirene (parallel)
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Tweak recent "forward compatibility" changes to the H5E* API (which allowed
for the old H5E API functions to remain unchanged) by allowing for the error
stack callback function (H5E_auto_t) to also remain unchanged from the 1.6
branch. This required changing the H5E{get|set}_auto routines to have the
old style H5E_auto_t type (which didn't have a stack ID parameter) and the new
H5E{get|set}_auto_stack routines to have a newer "H5E_auto_stack_t" type (which
has a stack ID parameter). This should make the H5E API changes as forwardly
compatible as possible.
One side-affect of this change was that it was impossible to determine if
the current auto error callback was the old style (H5E_auto_t) or the new style
(H5E_auto_stack_t) of callback, so a new API function (H5Eauto_is_stack) was
adde to query this.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir)

Make collective chunk IO test more general
Description:
Previously collective chunk IO test is only fit for processor =4 with
the dimension size to be set small; sometimes people would like to test
with more than 4 processors(5,6 or more), the test therefore failed.
Solution:
To make the test case more general, dimensional size of the data is set to be large(right now 288 for each dimension), the disjoint hyperslab selection is re-calculated. Now the test cases should pass with 5,6 or 12 processors. Note, there is nothing wrong with the implementation of the library, it is the test case that causes the failure with the number of processor greater than 4.
Platforms tested:
Only at eirene, since only the test code is modified a little and it is very slow to test the parallel case.
Misc. update:
Code cleanup
Description:
Fix another batch of minor differences between the development and release
branches.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest
Code cleanup
Description:
Clean up collective chunking code a bit.
Also, add '--enable-instrument' configure flag to have a mechanism for
determining that optimized operations happened correctly in the library (instead
of just the "normal" way) by allowing 'flag' properties to be set outside the
library and set when the "right" thing happens. This is mainly for debugging
and regression checks, so we make certain we don't break optimized I/O by
accident. It's enabled by default when --enable-debug is on (which is on by
default in the development branch and off by default in the release branch),
but can also be independently controlled with its own configure flag.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel
IBM p690 (copper) w/parallel
To test collective chunk IO properly.
Description:
See the previous message.
Solution:
See the previous message.
Platforms tested:
arabica(Sol 2.7), eirene(Linux), copper(AIX)
Misc. update:
To add collective chunk IO tests.
Description:
three tests are added.
1. Only one hyperslab for each process, and this hyperslab is fit in exactly one chunk.
2. non-contiguous hyperslabs in each process, these hyperslabs are fit in one chunk.
3. Single hyperslab for each process, smaller chunk is assigned. Number of chunks for
every process is equal.
Solution:
the dataset size is set to be very small, will enlarge later.
Platforms tested:
AIX 5.1(copper)
Misc. update:
Bug fix
Description:
Fix error in chunked dataset I/O where data written out wasn't read
correctly from a chunked, extendible dataset after the dataset was extended.
Also, fix parallel I/O tests to gather error results from all processes,
in order to detect errors that only occur on one process.
Solution:
Bypass chunk cache for reads as well as writes, if parallel I/O driver is
used and file is opened for writing.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Too minor to require h5committest
feature
Description:
Change testphdf5 to use the common test program syntax.
Needed to change the protocols of all test programs to
fit the requirement of the common test syntax.
Platforms tested:
"h5committested".
Also tested in sol with PP mode.
Improvement
Description:
Changed parsing of verbose level by the common test library routine.
Change t_mpi.c to use the Verbose control better.
Platforms tested:
verena (pp).
Misc. update:
Improvement.
Description:
Complete change of the verbose control to use the routines provided by
the test/libh5test.a.
Also put in a temporary fix for the H5Eset_auto() and H5Eget_auto()
so that the Compat code are isolated in one place rather than all over
the source file.
Platforms tested:
Tested in Eirene (parallel).
Misc. update:
Added a test of fill value before any data is written to a dataset.
Rename short_dataset() as dataset_fillvalue() as it reflects better
the tests. Also removed the option of -S since the fill value test
will be tested always.
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"
Misc. update:
Code cleanup.
Description:
The H5Eclear() in the VRFY and INFO macros are not needed.
After removing them, there is no need to have a separate
v1.6 Compat version.
Platforms tested:
"h5committested"
Misc. update:
Code cleanup, bug fixes
Description:
Wrap up rest of changes necessary for fixing the "short" MPI-I/O read
problem that Robb reported.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir)
too minor to require h5committest
Bug fix
Description:
Clean up a couple more 1.6 compat bugs that showed up when the library
was compiled with parallel support.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.9 (sleipnir) w/parallel & 1.6 compat
config not tested with h5committest
Update
Description:
Added test for FPHDF5 to the testpar/ directory. If you specify
--enable-fphdf5 during configuration, it'll run this test during a
"make check".
Platforms tested:
Linux (FPHDF5 specific).
Misc. update:
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
Feature Add
Description:
Added knob so that the programmer can enable or disable GPFS
hints during runtime instead of having it only enabled at
configure/compile time. Some of the public APIs were changed
to add an extra parameter for this option...
Platforms tested:
Blue (LLNL). It only affects the MPI/POSIX driver, so no need
to test it on non-GPFS platforms.
Misc. update:
feature
Description:
added test_fapl_mpiposix_dup to verify the MPIPOSIX is making
duplicates of Communicator correctly.
Platforms tested:
Did not h5committested because these are all MPI code and well protected
by HAVE_PARALLEL.
Tested in eirene and modi4, both parallel mode.
Misc. update:
code cleanup.
Description:
Rename test_comm_info_delete to test_fapl_mpio_dup to better decribe
what it does. Updated the comments to describe more accurate.
Platforms tested:
Did not run h5commmittest since the changes were all in parallel area.
Ran parallel tests on modi4 and eirene.
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
Updated (and in some cases added) the copyright statement.
Platforms tested:
Linux (Comment changes...only tested if they compile)
Misc. update:
Purpose:
More test.
Description:
Test independent read of groups and chunked dataset.
Solution:
This test is similar to multiple group test. So just add it in the
testphdf5.c,h.
Platforms tested:
modi4, eirene.
New feature
Description:
Add support for scalar dataspaces in parallel I/O.
Platforms tested:
Tested h5committest {arabica (fortran), eirene (fortran, C++)
modi4 (parallel, fortran)}
Also, FreeBSD 4.7 (sleipnir) serial & parallel
Misc. update:
Update release_docs/RELEASE for bug fixes, new features, etc.
Code cleanup
Description:
Cleaned up some compiler warnings.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.6 (sleipnir) w/serial & parallel. Will be testing on IRIX64
6.5 (modi4) in serial & parallel shortly.
Users were alarmed by the OFFSET overflow and GB file size tests.
Those tests only checks the limits of the MPI implementation, not
really as an error.
Solution:
Changed the VRFY macro to indicate it is an "ERROR".
Modified the INFO macro to print messages as "REMARK (not an error)"
so that users would not be alarmed.
Added an explanation string in the GB file size write/read.
Platforms tested:
eirene and modi4 (parallel)
New test feature
Description:
Added create_faccess_plist() that create just MPIO or split+MPIO
file-access property list. This in turn can run parallel tests
with just MPIO or with Split-file VFD too.
Added -s option for split-file Plus MPIO tests.
For testphdf5.c: removed a bunch of old debug code that got left
in by mistake.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 and eirene parallel.
But it has uncovered errors in the library. The test program
is correct though. Checking the test program in so that it won't
get lost and can be used for debugging. Also, the -s is not used
by default during test. At least it won't abort "make check".
Bug fix
Description:
The t_mpi used to fail and exit if any error detected.
That aborted other process in a "make check" situation.
Solution:
Introduced a new error verification as INFO. INFO is for
information only. It does not increase nerrors count.
The program always exits with 0.
Platforms tested:
eirene with mpich.
Improvement
Description:
Changed the default value of $NPROCS from 2 to 3. This is the
value libSAF uses since 3 processes have a much bigger chance
catching parallel errors than just 2 processes.
Changed the default dataset sizes from 800 to 1200 so that it is
a multiple for 3 (and 8 too which is ofter used in the Tflops test.)
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (IRIX64) both serial and parallel modes.
New features
Description:
Some testers found the filename lengths too short.
Changed it to use the FILENAME_MAX usually defined in stdio.h.
If not, set it to 512 which should be sufficient for users
but should not exceed any system limits.
Also added a new test parameters of ndatasets so that the tester
can specific a different number of datasets for the multiple
datasets tests.
Changed the datatype of datasets created to DOUBLE. This eliminates
the current racing conditions. But the racing bugs during conversion
still need to be tracked down and squashed.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 -64.
Simple changes
Description:
testphdf5.h:
Call MPI_Abort when error is detected. MPI_Finalized was used
before but it might hang if the test has already encountered errors.
Also, it does not do the H5Eprint any more since auto report is on.
t_mdest.c:
Changed the variable name of rank and nprocs to mpi_rank and mpi_size
so that it is the same with the other tests and can use the VRFY macro
call.
Platforms tested:
modi4-64.
Features, kind of.
Description:
Separated the MPI features test into its own independent
program so that it can be tested on its own without too
much HDF5 stuff involved.
Added automatic removal of temporary test files after
the tests completed.
Reduced the size of the dataset dimensions to avoid tripping
the SGI MPI problems of running out of internal mpi type entries.
Platforms tested:
O2K -64
Added features
Description:
There were no automatic tests for transfering zero elements.
Solution:
t_dset.c:
Added two new patterns of ZROW (zero rows for process 0)
and ZCOL(zero columns for process 0).
ZROW test was added but it failed because the current library
does not accept it. Not compiled in now. Need to fix the
library before turning it back on again and also to add the
ZCOL test.
t_mdset.c:
Added statement to show progress. Also the MPI_Barrier() call
get processes synchornoized. It eliminates the racing condition
but this is not a permenant solution. The library code needs to
be fixed.
testphdf5.c:
Added a bunch of MPI_Type_XXX debug code. Added the -md
option to skip the multiple datasets tests. Changed the cosmitic
appearance of the banner messages.
testphdf5.h:
When an error is detected, the old way was to call MPI_Finalize()
before exiting. This sometimes hangs because some processes
may be waiting for a message of a different tag. Changed to
call MPI_Abort() for now so that the whole MPI job would
abort rather than hanging due resource limits exceeded.
Added the definition of ZROW and ZCOL.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 -64.
Makefile.in:
Added test/ as one of the -I directories to search for header files.
Needed because <h5test.h> is used.
t_file.c t_mpi.c testphdf5.c testphdf5.h:
Added FILENAME to meet the assumption in h5test.h. (May use
CLEANUP in the future.) Moved the prefix setting to the
h5_fixname().
Removed the unnecessary #include of mpi.h and mpio.h. (They are
included already in H5public.h when applicable.) Changed couple
debug printing to be controlled like the others.
src/H5public.h:
Officially, mpio.h should be in mpi.h but MPIO are not always
supported by the vendor yet. Make the #include of mpio.h conditional
when it is not in mpi.h.
testpar/testphdf5.h:
Removed the unnecessary #include of mpi.h and mpio.h. (They are
included already in H5public.h when applicable.)
Changed it to skip the test instead of aborting when there is not
enough processes to do the test. Also corrected an error in the
error reporting printf statement.
t_dset.c:
testphdf5.c:
testphdf5.h:
Added option for specifying chunk dimensions.
new feature
Makefile.in:
Added the dependence of *.c on the testphdf5.h
t_dset.c:
testphdf5.c:
testphdf5.h:
testphdf5 now takes optional arguements for dataset dimension sizes.
That allows testing with different dimension sizes without recompiling
the whole thing.
Platform tested:
O2K
