MuQun Yang 870c5b2f66 [svn-r11231] Purpose:
bug fix for collective chunk IO, phase 1
Optimization hasn't been done yet, the collective chunk IO bug should be fixed.
Description:
In chunking storage, memory space and file space will be remapped, So to check
whether file space and memory space are regular in order to use optimized MPI derived
datatype for collective call one has to check per-chunk wise instead of per hyperslab wise.
Even a regular memory space will be stored in span-tree and will be irregular before chunk IO.

Solution:
1. Check file space and memory space per chunk wise instead of per hyperslab wise.
2. For collective IO mode, number of chunks covered by hyperslab may be different. Since we are
handing per chunk per IO, for the extra chunk IO for some(not all) processors, collective mode will
cause program hanged. So for the extra chunk Io mode independent IO has to be used.
3. On some platforms, Complex MPI derived datatype is not working, so we have to use independent IO for collective IO mode if the selection is irregular. However, when the selection is regular, we do want to use collective IO since that will improve performance. Special cares have to be added for this case.


Platforms tested:
copper(AIX 5.1) Linux(heping mpich 1.2.6), Teragrid machine, Cobalt(altix), modi4

HDF5 version 1.7.51 currently under development
Please refer to the release_docs/INSTALL file for installation instructions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This release is almost fully functional for the entire API defined in the
documentation, see the RELEASE.txt file in this directory for information
specific to this release of the library.  The INSTALL file contains
instructions on compiling and installing the library.  The INSTALL_parallel
file contains instructions on installing the parallel version of the
library.  The INSTALL* files can be found in the release_docs/ directory.

Documentation for this release is in the html directory.  Start with the
"index.html" in that directory.

Four mailing lists are currently set up for use with the HDF5
library.

   hdf5         - For general discussion of the HDF5 library with
		  other users.

   hdf5dev      - For discussion of the HDF5 library development
		  with developers and other interested parties.

   hdf5announce - For announcements of HDF5 related developments,
		  not a discussion list.

   hdf5cvs      - For checkin notices of code development on the library,
		  not a discussion list.

To subscribe to a list, send mail to "majordomo@ncsa.uiuc.edu",
with "subscribe <list>" in the _body_, not the Subject, of the message.
E.g., subscribe hdf5 

Messages to be sent to the list should be sent to "<list>@ncsa.uiuc.edu".

Nearly daily code snapshots are now being provided at the following URL:
    ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots
Please read the readme file in that directory before working with a library
snapshot.

The HDF5 website is located at http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/

Bugs should be reported to hdfhelp@ncsa.uiuc.edu.
