Add 'notify' callback to metadata cache clients, so that they can be
aware when the cache has taken/will take certain actions. Notifications are
urrently limited to when an entry has successfully entered the cache (via an
insertion or a load from the file) and when an entry is about to be evicted
from the cache.

This feature is still in progress; Shared Object Header Messages are not
complete as a feature and are not thoroughly tested. There are still
"TODO" comments in the code (comments with the word "JAMES" in them,
so as not to be confused with other TODO comments).
Hopefully this checkin will reduce the liklihood of conflicts as I finish
implementing this feature.
All current tests pass on juniper, copper (parallel), heping, kagiso, and mir.
File format is not stable, don't keep files produced!
Description:
First stage of checkins modifying the format of groups to support creation
order. Implement "dense" storage for links in groups.
Try to clarify some of the symbols for the H5L API.
Add the H5Pset_latest_format() flag for FAPLs, to choose to use the newest
file format options (including "dense" link storage in groups)
Add the H5Pset_track_creation_order() flag for GCPLs, to enable creation
order tracking in groups (although no index on creation order yet).
Remove --enable-group-revision configure flag, as file format issues are
now handled in a backwardly/forwardly compatible way.
Clean up lots of compiler warnings and other minor formatting issues.

for faster operations on dense links during B-tree traversal & lookup.
Refactor the "read" routine to use the internal version of the "op" routine,
to keep the code duplication as low as possible.

Users can create external links using H5L_create_external(). These links
point to an object in another HDF5 file. Users can alter the behavior of
external links or create new kinds of links by registering callbacks
using the H5L interface.
Added tests, tools support, etc.
Also a number of other, minor changes have been made (some restructuring of
the H5L interface, for instance).
Additional documentation and examples are forthcoming.
1) Added trace file support to the metadata cache. This allows capture
of all metadata cache calls in trace files for purposes of optimization
and debuging.
2) Added an expunge entry function. This allows an entry to be deleteded
from the cache without writing it to disk even if it is dirty.
3) Added a function call to resize pinned entries.
4) Added code to deal with entries that are dirty on load. This is
needed in support of a bug fix which can alter object headers on
load to repair files.
5) Added progress reporting code to the "MDC API smoke check" test in
cache_api.c. To enable the progress reporting, set report_progress
to TRUE in mdc_api_call_smoke_check().
Tested with h5committest, and a parallel test on phoenix (dual athelon
linux box).
Feature
Description:
Revised Link APIs.
Solution:
New link APIs use H5L*
H5*create_expand do not create links to the objects created; this must
be done manually with H5Llink.
Added APIs to link an object given its ID (H5Llink), to copy links (H5Lcopy),
and changed creation APIs (H5Lcreate_hard and H5Lcreate_soft) and query
API (H5Lget_linkinfo instead of H5Gget_objinfo).
All old APIs are still supported in H5Gdeprec.c .
Platforms tested:
sol, mir, copper
Misc. update:
Forgot to update MANIFEST and release docs. Will do after checkin.
Code checkpoint
Description:
Add in more new features for the fractal heap code, mostly bringing in
more ability for deleting objects (which isn't completely working yet).

WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
This initiates the "unstable" phase of the 1.7.x branch, leading up
to the 1.8.0 release. Please test this code, but do _NOT_ keep files created
with it - the format will change again before the release and you will not
be able to read your old files!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!! WARNING!!!!
Solution:
There's too many changes to really describe them all, but some of them
include:
- Stop abusing the H5G_entry_t structure and split it into two separate
structures for non-symbol table node use within the library: H5O_loc_t
for object locations in a file and H5G_name_t to store the path to
an opened object. H5G_entry_t is now only used for storing symbol
table entries on disk.
- Retire H5G_namei() in favor of a more general mechanism for traversing
group paths and issuing callbacks on objects located. This gets us out
of the business of hacking H5G_namei() for new features, generally.
- Revised H5O* routines to take a H5O_loc_t instead of H5G_entry_t
- Lots more...
Platforms tested:
h5committested and maybe another dozen configurations.... :-)
Code cleanup
Description:
Merge back changes from "compact group" work that improve the
infrastructure of the library and may impact others. In this round of
merging, that includes:
- Move datatype allocation into single internal routine, instead of
duplicated code that was spread out in a dozen or so places.
- Clean up guts of object header routines (H5O_*) to allow for some of
the fancieroperations that need to be performed on groups, along with
some general improvements.
- Added a new error code
- Some minor cleanups in other code....

Too minor to require h5committest
Feature.
Description:
Added HSYS_ERROR macro to retrieve and push system error message to
the error stack.
Added the related H5E_SYSERRSTR error code.
This allows system error messages be shown to users too. Thus
give a better explanation of what the errors are.
Platforms tested:
h5committested.
New feature
Description:
Add new "block tracker" data structure to library, for tracking blocks of
bytes in a file. Block trackers will be used to keep track of the blocks
belonging to the soon-to-be-implemented "segmented heap" which is designed to
replace the current local & global heaps (starting with the local heap).
Block trackers will also keep track of the free space in the segmented heap
and someday could be used to track the free space in the entire HDF5 file.
They are implemented as a small header of information to cache the state
of the blocks (max & min sizes of blocks tracked, etc.) and the records of
the blocks themselves are stored in a v2 B-tree.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.11 (sleipnir)
Solaris 2.9 (shanti)

New feature
Description:
Allow records in internal nodes to be removed, not just records in leaf
nodes.

Too minor to require h5committest
Add new internal data structure
Description:
Add an implementation of skip lists to the library (see comment in
src/H5SL.c for references to the papers describing them) as a potential
replacement for our current threaded, balanced binary tree container.
Skip lists are much simpler to implement and should be faster to use.
Also, added new error codes to release branch, so bump the minor version
number to indicate that the library is no longer perfectly compatible with
the 1.6.3 release.
Platforms tested:
FreeBSD 4.10 (sleipnir) w/parallel
Solaris 2.7 (arabica)
Too minor to require further testing (the skip lists aren't actually
used by any library code yet)
Description:
Replaced the old metadata cache with a cache with a modified LRU
replacement policy. This should improve the hit rate.
Solution:
Since we want to flush cache entries in increasing address order, I
used the threaded binary B-tree code to store the cache entries.
There is a fair bit of overhead here, so we may want to consider
other options.
While the code is designed to allow the support of other replacement
algorithms, at present, only a modified version of LRU is supported.
The modified LRU algorithm requires that a user selectable portion
of the cache entries be clean. The clean entries are evicted first
when writes are not permitted. If the pool of clean entries is used
up, the cache grows beyond its user specified maximum size. The
cache can also exceed its maximum size if the combined size of the
protected (or locked) entries exceeds the maximum size of the cache.
Platforms tested:
eirene (serial, parallel, fp), h5committested
Misc. update:
Purpose:
HDF5 now supports SZIP with no encoder.
Description:
SZIP can be configured to have both encoder and decoder or just to have the decoder. HDF5 can now query the configuration of any filter, and will throw errors if users try to write using a filter with encoding disabled.
Solution:
Added H5Zget_filter_info function, changed API for H5Pget_filter and H5P_get_filter_by_id. See SZIP RFC.
Platforms tested:
Copper (fortran, C++, parallel), Sleipnir (C++), Arabica (fortran, C++), Verbena (fortran, C++)
Misc. update:
Update
Description:
A lot of modifications for the FPHDF5 stuff:
H5AC.c
H5ACprivate.h - Removed AC_find (it's replaced with AC_protect
and AC_unprotect). Added flushing if it's an FPHDF5 driver and
we're doing an AC_set or AC_unprotect with the dirty flag set.
H5B.c - Split up the B_flush function into different functions
since the one function was doing serialization which is better
left as a separate entity.
H5D.c - Removed some FPHDF5 code that was incorrect
H5F.c - Split up the F_flush function so that it no longer
allocates file space. Created new functions (F_init_superblock,
F_read_superblock, and F_write_superblock) for greater modularity
and so that the FPHDF5 non-captain processes can read the
superblock after the captain process writes it.
H5FD.c - Error message correction.
H5FDfphdf5.c - Removed MPI barrier call that wasn't needed.
H5FPclient.c
H5FPserver.c - Modified so that if a process requests data that
isn't exactly aligned, we can return it if we have the block that
contains the requested address.
H5G.c
H5Gent.c
H5Gnode.c
H5HL.c
H5HLpkg.h
H5HLprivate.h
H5Oefl.c - Removed the H5HL_peek function since it was doing a
(now unsafe) holding of the information in the cache. Replaced
with protect and unprotect calls.
H5TB.c - Error fix. The TB_dless function wasn't working
properly.
H5Gstab.c - Format change.
H5err.txt
H5Edefin.h
H5Einit.h
H5Epubgen.h
H5Eterm.h - Added new error code.
Platforms tested:
Modi4 (paralle, Fortran)
Sol (Fortran)
Linux (C++, Fortran)
Copper (Parallel, Fortran)
Misc. update:
Code cleanup, etc.
Description:
Previously (in versions prior to 1.7), there were two locations to
modify when an error was added to the library. Now, with the new error API,
there were four.
Solution:
Created a single text file (src/H5err.txt) and a perl script (bin/make_err)
which uses the text file to automatically create header files that are included
in appropriate places in the library.
This means that there is only one file (src/H5err.txt) which needs to be
modified when a new error code is added to the library. The automatically
generated headers depend on this file and the makefiles will take care of
running the perl script to regenerate them when the text file changes, so no
user action is required when a new error is added.
