Changes in IOR-3.0.0
|
|
|
|
* Reorganization of the build system. Now uses autoconf/automake.
|
|
N.B. Windows suport is not included. Patches welcome.
|
|
* Much code refactoring.
|
|
* Final summary table is printed after all tests have finished.
|
|
* Error messages significantly improved.
|
|
* Drop all "undocumented changes". If they are worth having, they
|
|
need to be implemented well and documented.
|
|
|
|
Changes in IOR-2.10.3
|
|
* bug 2962326 "Segmentation Fault When Summarizing Results" fixed
|
|
* bug 2786285 "-Wrong number of parameters to function H5Dcreate" fixed
|
|
(NOTE: to compile for HDF5 1.6 libs use "-D H5_USE_16_API")
|
|
* bug 1992514 "delay (-d) doesn't work" fixed
|
|
Contributed by demyn@users.sourceforge.net
|
|
* Ported to Windows. Required changes related to 'long' types, which on Windows
|
|
are always 32-bits, even on 64-bit systems. Missing system headers and
|
|
functions acount for most of the remaining changes.
|
|
New files for Windows:
|
|
- IOR/ior.vcproj - Visual C project file
|
|
- IOR/src/C/win/getopt.{h,c} - GNU getopt() support
|
|
See updates in the USER_GUIDE for build instructions on Windows.
|
|
* Fixed bug in incrementing transferCount
|
|
* Fixed bugs in SummarizeResults with mismatched format specifiers
|
|
* Fixed inconsistencies between option names, -h output, and the USER_GUIDE.
|
|
|
|
Changes in IOR-2.10.2:
|
|
Hodson, 8/18/2008:
|
|
|
|
* extend existing random I/O capabilities and enhance performance
|
|
output statistics.
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.10.1:
|
|
* added '-J' setAlignment option for HDF5 alignment in bytes; default value
|
|
is 1, which does not set alignment
|
|
* changed how HDF5 and PnetCDF calculate performance -- formerly each used
|
|
the size of the stat()'ed file; changed it to be number of data bytes
|
|
transferred. these library-generated files can have large headers and
|
|
filler as well as sparse file content
|
|
* found potential overflow error in cast -- using IOR_offset_t, not int now
|
|
* replaced HAVE_HDF5_NO_FILL macro to instead directly check if H5_VERS_MAJOR
|
|
H5_VERS_MINOR are defined; if so, then must be HDF5-1.6.x or higher for
|
|
no-fill usage.
|
|
* corrected IOR_GetFileSize() function to point to HDF5 and NCMPI versions of
|
|
IOR_GetFileSize() calls
|
|
* changed the netcdf dataset from 1D array to 4D array, where the 4 dimensions
|
|
are: [segmentCount][numTasksWorld][numTransfers][transferSize]
|
|
This patch from Wei-keng Liao allows for file sizes > 4GB (provided no
|
|
single dimension is > 4GB).
|
|
* finalized random-capability release
|
|
* changed statvfs() to be for __sun (SunOS) only
|
|
* retired Python GUI
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.10.0.1:
|
|
* Cleaned up WriteOrRead(), reducing much to smaller functions.
|
|
* Added random capability for transfer offset.
|
|
* modified strtok(NULL, " \t\r\n") in ExtractHints() so no trailing characters
|
|
* added capability to set hints in NCMPI
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.9.6.1:
|
|
* for 'pvfs2:' filename prefix, now skips DisplayFreeSpace(); formerly this
|
|
caused a problem with statvfs()
|
|
* changed gethostname() to MPI_Get_processor_name() so for certain cases
|
|
when gethostname() would only return the frontend node name
|
|
* added SunOS compiler settings for makefile
|
|
* updated O_DIRECT usage for SunOS compliance
|
|
* changed statfs() to instead use statvfs() for SunOS compliance
|
|
* renamed compiler directive _USE_LUSTRE to _MANUALLY_SET_LUSTRE_STRIPING
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.9.5:
|
|
* Wall clock deviation time relabeled to be "Start time skew across all tasks".
|
|
* Added notification for "Using reorderTasks '-C' (expecting block, not cyclic,
|
|
task assignment)"
|
|
* Corrected bug with read performance with stonewalling (was using full size,
|
|
stat'ed file instead of bytes transfered).
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.9.4:
|
|
* Now using IOR_offset_t instead of int for tmpOffset in IOR.c:WriteOrRead().
|
|
Formerly, this would cause error in file(s) > 2GB for ReadCheck. The
|
|
more-commonly-used WriteCheck option was not affected by this.
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.9.3:
|
|
* Changed FILE_DELIMITER from ':' to '@'.
|
|
* Any time skew between nodes is automatically adjusted so that all nodes
|
|
are calibrated to the root node's time.
|
|
* Wall clock deviation time is still reported, but have removed the warning
|
|
message that was generated for this. (Didn't add much new information,
|
|
just annoyed folks.)
|
|
* The '-j' outlierThreshold option now is set to 0 (off) as default. To use
|
|
this, set to a positive integer N, and any task who's time (for open,
|
|
access, etc.) is not within N seconds of the mean of all the tasks will show
|
|
up as an outlier.
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.9.2:
|
|
* Simple cleanup of error messages, format, etc.
|
|
* Changed error reporting so that with VERBOSITY=2 (-vv) any error encountered
|
|
is displayed. Previously, this was with VERBOSITY=3, along with full test
|
|
parameters, environment, and all access times of operations.
|
|
* Added deadlineForStonewalling option (-D). This option is used for measuring
|
|
the amount of data moved in a fixed time. After the barrier, each task
|
|
starts its own timer, begins moving data, and the stops moving data at a
|
|
prearranged time. Instead of measuring the amount of time to move a fixed
|
|
amount of data, this option measures the amount of data moved in a fixed
|
|
amount of time. The objective is to prevent tasks slow to complete from
|
|
skewing the performance.
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.9.1:
|
|
* Updated test script to run through file1:file2 cases.
|
|
* Program exit code is now total numbers of errors (both writecheck and
|
|
readcheck for all iterations), unless quitOnError (-q) is set.
|
|
* For various failure situations, replace abort with warning, including:
|
|
- failed uname() for platform name now gives warning
|
|
- failed unlink() of data file now gives warning
|
|
- failed fsync() of data file now gives warning
|
|
- failed open() of nonexistent script file now gives warning
|
|
* Changed labelling for error checking output to be (hopefully) more
|
|
clear in details on errors for diagnostics.
|
|
* Another fix for -o file1:file2 option.
|
|
* Corrected bug in GetTestFileName() -- now possible to handle -o file1:file2
|
|
cases for file-per-proc.
|
|
|
|
Fixes in IOR-2.9.0:
|
|
* Improved checkRead option to reread data from different node (to avoid
|
|
cache) and then compare both reads.
|
|
* Added outlierThreshold (-j) option to give warning if any task is more than
|
|
this number of seconds from the mean of all participating tasks. If so, the
|
|
task is identified, its time (start, elapsed create, elapsed transfer,
|
|
elapsed close, or end) is reported, as is the mean and standard deviation for
|
|
all tasks. The default for this is 5, i.e. any task not within 5 seconds of
|
|
the mean for those times is displayed. This value can be set with
|
|
outlierThreshold=<value> or -j <value>.
|
|
* Correct for clock skew between nodes - if skew greater than wallclock
|
|
deviation threshold (WC_DEV_THRESHOLD) in seconds, then broadcast root
|
|
node's timestamp and adjust by the difference. WC_DEV_THRESHOLD currently
|
|
set to 5.
|
|
* Added a Users Guide.
