that don't count as VFD SWMR test failures.
The variable-length string tests are nondeterministic, so we expect them to
fail, and they do fail quite often on `jelly`, for example.
including the merge of `hdffv/hdf5/develop`, back to the branch that Vailin and
I share.
Now I need to put this branch on a fork with a less confusing name than
vchoi_fork!
had finished its work and closed the .h5 file, thus removing the shadow file.
Make the sparse writer wait to close the .h5 file for a signal from
testvfdswmr.sh. In testvfdswmr.sh, send the signal when the readers have all
finished.
output, then it tested $? for an error exit. $? told the error status of
`tee`, though, not the test programs! So no test failures were counted, even
when some tests clearly failed. I changed the test script to use a shell
subroutine, `catch_out_err_and_rc`, to catch test programs' output and result
code.
(1) Increase the # of records to write (Nrecords) in testvfdswmr.sh.in so as to ensure the writer
will not exit before the reader
(2) Use H5E_BEGIN_TRY/END_TRY when H5Fopen() the test file in reader tests
(3) Add "READER" or "WRITER" to debugging messages
(4) Misc cleanup
(1) Assertion failure in the vfd_swmr test
(2) Reader error in the vfd swmr concurrent tests
Also fixes for:
(a) Use H5MV_alloc() to allocate space for md_pages_reserved when creating the metadata file in H5F__vfd_swmr_init()
(b) Remove a multi-page (when vfd_swmr_writer is true) from the page buffer in H5MF_xfree()
--src/H5PB.c: checks for size >= page size
--src/H5MF.c: disable/enable page buffering in H5MF_tidy_self_referential_fsm_hack()
--src/H5MFsection.c: call H5PB_remove_entry() for both raw/metadata pages in H5MF__sect_small_merge()
(B) Port and modify existing concurrent swmr tests to VFD SWMR. Also modify the following:
--remove flushes from VFD SWMR writer tests
--set Nreaders to 0 in test/testvfdswmr.sh.in to test for writers only
