re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1977
PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1753, changed ncgen
to allows certain type names to be used as identifiers in
selected situations.
An unwanted side effect was that existing type aliases no longer
were accepted by ncgen. Specifically, using the "long" type
caused an error.
I was able to figure out a better solution to the original
problem (https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1750)
that also fixes this problem as well.
This PR fixes that problem in ncgen/ncgen.l,
and adds tests to ncdump/test_keywords.sh
The XArray implementation that uses Zarr for storage
provides a mechanism to simulate named dimensions.
It does this by adding a per-variable attribute called
_ARRAY_DIMENSIONS. This attribute contains a list of names
to be matched against the shape values of the variable.
In effect a named dimension is created with the name
_ARRAY_DIMENSIONS(i) and length shape(i) for all i
in range 0..rank(variable).
Both read and write support is provided.
This XArray support is only invoked if the mode value
of "xarray" is defined. So for example, as in this URL.
````
https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/dataset#mode=nczarr,xarray,s3
````
Note that the "xarray" mode flag also implies mode flag "zarr", so the above
is equivalent to this URL.
````
https://s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket/dataset#mode=nczarr,zarr,xarray,s3
````
The primary change to implement this was to unify the handling
of dimension references in libnczarr/zsync.
A test for this and other pure-zarr features was added as
nczarr_test/run_purezarr.sh
Other changes:
* Make sure distcheck leaves no files around.
* Change the special attribute flag DIMSCALEFLAG to HIDDENATTRFLAG
to support the xarray attribute.
* Annotate the zmap implementations with feature flags such as
WRITEONCE (for zip files).
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1836
Revert the internal filter code to simplify it. From the user's
point of view, the only visible changes should be:
1. The functions that convert text to filter specs have had their signature reverted and have been moved to netcdf_aux.h
2. Some filter API functions now return NC_ENOFILTER when inquiry is made about some filter.
Internally,the dispatch table has been modified to get rid of the filter_actions
entry and associated complex structures. It has been replaced with
inq_var_filter_ids and inq_var_filter_info entries and the dispatch table
version has been bumped to 3. Corresponding NOOP and NOTNC4 functions
were added to libdispatch/dnotnc4.c. Also, the filter_action entries
in dispatch tables were replaced for all dispatch code bases (HDF5, DAP2,
etc). This should only impact UDF users.
In the process, it became clear that the form of the filters
field in NC_VAR_INFO_T was format dependent, so I converted it to
be of type void* and pushed its management into the various dispatch
code bases. Specifically libhdf5 and libnczarr now manage the filters
field in their own way.
The auxilliary functions for parsing textual filter specifications
were moved to netcdf_aux.h and were renamed to the following:
* ncaux_h5filterspec_parse
* ncaux_h5filterspec_parselist
* ncaux_h5filterspec_free
* ncaux_h5filter_fix8
Misc. Other Changes:
1. Document NUG/filters.md updated to reflect the changes above.
2. All the old data types (structs and enums)
used by filter_actions actions were deleted.
The exception is the NC_H5_Filterspec because it is needed
by ncaux_h5filterspec_parselist.
3. Clientside filters were removed -- another enhancement
for which no-one ever asked.
4. The ability to remove filters was itself removed.
5. Some functionality needed by nczarr was moved from libhdf5
to libsrc4 e.g. nc4_find_default_chunksizes
6. All the filterx code was removed
7. ncfilter.h and nc4filter.c no longer used
Misc. Unrelated Changes:
1. The nczarr_test makefile clean was leaving some directories; so
add clean-local to take care of them.
The primary fix is to improve CMake build support.
Specific changes include:
* CMake: Provide a better soln to locating the AWS SDK
libraries; the new way is the preferred method as described in
the aws-cpp-sdk documentation.
* CMake (and Automake): allow -DENABLE_S3_SDK (default off) to suppress
looking for AWS libraries.
* CMake: add the complete set of nczarr tests
* CMake: add EXTERNL as needed to various .h files.
* Improve support for windows drive letters in paths.
* Add nczarr and s3 flags to nc-config
* For VisualStudio X nczarr, cleanup the NAN+INFINITY handling
* Convert _MSC_VER -> _WIN32 and vice versa as needed
* NCZarr - support multiple platform paths including windows, cygwin.
mingw, etc.
* NCZarr - sort the test outputs because different platforms
produce directory contents in different orders.
One big change concerns netcdf-c/CMakeLists.txt and netcdf-c/configure.ac.
In the current versions, it was the case that --disable-hdf5
disabled netcdf-4 (libsrc4). With nczarr, this can no longer
be the case because nczarr requires libsrc4 even if libhdf5
is disabled. So, I modified the above files to move the
format options (HDF5, NCZarr, HDF4, etc) to a single place
near the front of the files. Now it is the case that:
* Enabling any of the formats that require libsrc4
also does an implicit --enable-netcdf4.
* --disable-netcdf4 | --disable-netcdf-4 now becomes
and alias for --disable-hdf5.
There are probably some bugs in this change in terms of
dependencies between format options.
Problems:
* CMake S3 support is still not working for Visual Studio
* A recent issue points out that there is work to do on handling
UTF8 filenames, but that will be addressed in a separate fix.
Notes:
* Consider converting all of our includes/.h files to use EXTERNL
Built-in type-name keywords are currently flagged when used as
identifiers in formats that do not support that type. So if a
user declares a dimension named "string" in a classic .cdl file,
it causes an error.
This PR modifies ncgen to allow those format-specific type keywords
to be used as identifiers when compiling to formats that do not
support that type. Also added a test for this.
Also a couple of misc. changes to conditionalize some debug output.
The current ncgen does not properly handle very large
data sections. Apparently this is very uncommon because
it was only discovered in testing the new zarr code.
The fix required a new approach to processing data sections.
Unfortunately, the resulting ncgen is slower than before
but at least it is, I think, now correct.
The added test cases are in libnczarr, and so will
not show up until that is incorporated into master.
Note also that fortran code generation changed, but
has not been tested here.
Misc. Changes
1. Cleanup error handling in ncgen -lc and -lb output
2. Cleanup Makefiles for ncgen to remove unused code
3. Added a program, ncgen/ncdumpchunks, to print
the data for a .nc file on a per-chunk format.
4. Made the XGetOpt change in PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1694
for ncdump/ncvalidator
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1584
Support has been added for multiple filters per variable. This
affects a number of components in netcdf. The new APIs are
documented in NUG/filters.md.
The primary changes are:
* A set of new functions are provided (see __include/netcdf_filter.h__).
- Obtain a list of the filters associated with a variable
- Obtain the parameters for a specific filter.
* The existing __nc_inq_var_filter__ function now returns info
about the first defined filter.
* The utilities (ncgen, ncdump, and nccopy) now support
an extended format for specifying a sequence of filters.
The general form is __<filter>|<filter>..._.
* The ncdump **_Filter** attribute now dumps a list of all the
filters associated with a variable using the above new format.
* Filter specifications can now use a filter name instead of number
for filters known to the netcdf library, which in turn is taken
from the HDF5 filter registration page.
* New errors are defined: NC_EFILTER and NC_ENOFILTER. The latter
is returned if an attempt is made to access an unknown filter.
* Internally, the dispatch table has been extended to add a function
to handle all of the filter functions.
* New, filter-related, tests were added to nc_test4.
* A new plugin was added to the plugins directory to help with testing.
Notes:
1. The shuffle and fletcher32 filters are not part of the multifilter system.
Misc. changes:
1. A debug module was added to libhdf5 to help catch error locations.
re: https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1330
The ncgen utility is documented to accept octal integer constants
if the leading digit is zero. This was not implemented. Fix ncgen.l
to properly handle such constants. Also add a test to c0.cdl.

re: issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/876
re: issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/806
* Major change to the handling of 8-byte parameters for nc_def_var_filter.
The old code was not well thought out.
* The new algorithm is documented in docs/filters.md.
* Added new utility file plugins/H5Zutil.c to support
* Modified plugins/H5Zmisc.c to use new algorithm
the new algorithm.
* Renamed include/ncfilter.h to include/netcdf_filter.h
and made it an installed header so clients can access the
new algorithm utility.
* Fixed nc_test4/tst_filterparser.c and nc_test4/test_filter_misc.c
to use the new algorithm
* libdap4/ fixes:
* d4swap.c has an error in the endian pre-processing such
that record counts were not being swapped correctly.
* d4data.c had an error in that checksums were being computed
after endian swapping rather than before.
* ocinitialize() was never being called, so xxdr bigendian handling
was never set correctly.
* Required adding debug statements to occompile
* Found and fixed memory leak in ncdump.c
Not tested:
* HDF4
* Pnetcdf
* parallel HDF5
Primary fixes to get -ansi to work.
1. Convert all '//' C++ style comments to /*...*/ or to use #if 0...#endif
2. It turns out that when -ansi is specified, then a number of
functions no longer are defined in the header -- but they are still
in the .so file.<br>
The big example is strdup(). So, added code to include/ncconfig.h to define
externs for those missing functions that occur in more than one place.
These are enabled if !_WIN32 && __STDC__ == 1 (__STDC__ is supposed to
be the equivalent compile time flag to -ansi). Note that this requires
config.h (which references ncconfig.h) to be included in files where it is
currently not included. Single uses will be only in the file that uses them.
3. Added mmap test for the MAP_ANONYMOUS flag to configure.ac. Apparently
this is not always defined with -ansi.
4. fix some large integer constants in nc_test4/tst_atts3.c and nc_test4/tst_filterparser.c
to avoid compiler complaints.
5. fix a double constant in nc_test4/tst_filterparser.c to avoid compiler complaints.
[Note I suspect #4 and #5 will be a problem on big-endian machines, but we have no way to test]
Misc. Changes:
1. convert more instances of _MSC_VER to _WIN32.
2. added some debugging code to include/nctestserver.h
3. added comment about libdispatch/drc.c always being compiled.
4. modify parser generation in ncgen to remove unneeded files.
re: issue https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/issues/1233
Changes:
1. remove exit that was there for testing.
2. the program tst_open_mem must be netcdf-4 only.
3. fix some diff problems
- Change dataset name for tst_inmemory4_create to tst_inmemory4
- Modify tst_inmemory.c to reorder the variables (somewhat major rewrite)
Minor Unrelated Fixes:
1. fix comment problem in nc_provenance.h
2. Fix memory leak in tst_open_mem.c
3. fix ncdump/bindata.c to properly compile if netcdf4 is disabled.
4. minor changes to ncgen.l
This is a follow up to PR https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/1173
Sorry that it is so big, but leak suppression can be complex.
This PR fixes all remaining memory leaks -- as determined by
-fsanitize=address, and with the exceptions noted below.
Unfortunately. there remains a significant leak that I cannot
solve. It involves vlens, and it is unclear if the leak is
occurring in the netcdf-c library or the HDF5 library.
I have added a check_PROGRAM to the ncdump directory to show the
problem. The program is called tst_vlen_demo.c To exercise it,
build the netcdf library with -fsanitize=address enabled. Then
go into ncdump and do a "make clean check". This should build
tst_vlen_demo without actually executing it. Then do the
command "./tst_vlen_demo" to see the output of the memory
checker. Note the the lost malloc is deep in the HDF5 library
(in H5Tvlen.c).
I am temporarily working around this error in the following way.
1. I modified several test scripts to not execute known vlen tests
that fail as described above.
2. Added an environment variable called NC_VLEN_NOTEST.
If set, then those specific tests are suppressed.
This should mean that the --disable-utilities option to
./configure should not need to be set to get a memory leak clean
build. This should allow for detection of any new leaks.
Note: I used an environment variable rather than a ./configure
option to control the vlen tests. This is because it is
temporary (I hope) and because it is a bit tricky for shell
scripts to access ./configure options.
Finally, as before, this only been tested with netcdf-4 and hdf5 support.
2. Fixed plugin building (nc_test4/hdf5plugins)
to be done properly by cmake and automake.
4. Duplicated part of the nc_test4 filter test code
in examples/C
An incomplete and untested set of hooks exist
for OS-X in nc_test4/findplugins.in. They need testing.

re pull request https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/446
Notes:
1. This branch is a cleanup of the magic.dmh branch.
2. magic.dmh was originally merged, but caused problems with parallel IO.
It was re-issued as pull request https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-c/pull/446.
3. This branch + pull request replace any previous pull requests and magic.dmh branch.
Given an otherwise valid netCDF file that has a corrupted header,
the netcdf library currently crashes. Instead, it should return
NC_ENOTNC.
Additionally, the NC_check_file_type code does not do the
forward search required by hdf5 files. It currently only looks
at file position 0 instead of 512, 1024, 2048,... Also, it turns
out that the HDF4 magic number is assumed to always be at the
beginning of the file (unlike HDF5).
The change is localized to libdispatch/dfile.c See
https://support.hdfgroup.org/release4/doc/DSpec_html/DS.pdf
Also, it turns out that the code in NC_check_file_type is duplicated
(mostly) in the function libsrc4/nc4file.c#nc_check_for_hdf.
This branch does the following.
1. Make NC_check_file_type return NC_ENOTNC instead of crashing.
2. Remove nc_check_for_hdf and centralize all file format checking
NC_check_file_type.
3. Add proper forward search for HDF5 files (but not HDF4 files)
to look for the magic number at offsets of 0, 512, 1024...
4. Add test tst_hdf5_offset.sh. This tests that hdf5 files with
an offset are properly recognized. It does so by prefixing
a legal file with some number of zero bytes: 512, 1024, etc.
5. Off-topic: Added -N flag to ncdump to force a specific output dataset name.
it tries to infer the file kind based on
the constructs and types used in the .cdl
file. Previously, it included cdf5 as an
inferrable kind, but this is almost never
what is wanted. So limit inferable kinds
to netcdf classic vs netcdf enhanced.
Also fix tst_inttags4.sh test.
1. Allow nccopy to apply filters, especially on the output file.
This provides a third way to do this other than using ncgen or
programatically
2. Make sure that even if the filter code is not available, it is
possible to see the filter id and parameters for variables using
e.g ncdump -hs.
3. Fix bug in nccopy so that the input file does
not necessarily have to be netcdf-4.
4. At last minute decided to change to using a
single "_Filter" attribute for ncgen
5. Added a test to tst_filter.sh to generate C code using ncgen.
This relies on the HDF5 capability to
dynamically load compression filters.
Note that a compression filter is just
a subcase of filters.
The primary user-visible changes are as follows:
1. Add a standard header "netcdf_filter.h" that defines
the necessary API extensions
2. Modify ncgen to support two new special attributes
"_Filter_ID" and "_Filter_Parameters" so that compression
can be turned on when creating a file using ncgen.
4. Add a detailed description of filtering support
to the user's guide; see the file filters.md
5. Add a test case directory for this: nc_test4/filter_test.
It is fragile and a ./configure flags (-enable-filter-test)
is defined (default disabled) to shut this off this test
to avoid spurious 'make check' failures.
Note that the HDF5 documentation is not up-to-date, so
much of what is encoded here comes from examining the
actual code in the file H5PL.c in the HDF5 source code.
is somehow in interference with something
in the HDF4 code. So, I changed
the OPAQUE -> OPAQUE_ and that appears
to fix the problem with bison when HDF4
is enabled.
ps. when Visual Studio complained about token
'constant' it turn out that it mean token type,
not the actual token named 'constant'. Instead
the actual token that was causing the problem
was 'OPAQUE'.
Update utf8proc.[ch] to use the version now
maintained by the Julia Language project
(https://github.com/JuliaLang/utf8proc/blob/master/LICENSE.md).
The license for the previous version was
unacceptable for the Debian and Ubuntu release
systems. The new version both updates the code
and addresses the license issue.
It turns out that the utf8proc software we are using
was turned over to the Julia Language developers
and the license terms changed to allow modification.
(https://github.com/JuliaLang/utf8proc/blob/master/LICENSE.md).
So the fix here is as follows:
1. Wrap the library with a fixed interface: libdispatch/dutf8.c
and include/ncutf8.h.
2. Replace the existing utf8proc code with the new version
from https://github.com/JuliaLang/utf8proc.
3. Add a couple more test cases: nc_test/tst_utf8_validate.c
and nc_test_utf8_phrases.c. If/when I can find a usable
normalization test, I will incorporate that later.
