/****************************************************************************
 *
 * structure H5AC_cache_config_t
 *
 * H5AC_cache_config_t is a public structure intended for use in public APIs.
 * At least in its initial incarnation, it is basicaly a copy of struct
 * H5C_auto_size_ctl_t, minus the report_fcn field, and plus the
 * dirty_bytes_threshold field.
 *
 * The report_fcn field is omitted, as including it would require us to
 * make H5C_t structure public.
 *
 * The dirty_bytes_threshold field does not appear in H5C_auto_size_ctl_t,
 * as synchronization between caches on different processes is handled at
 * the H5AC level, not at the level of H5C.  Note however that there is
 * considerable interaction between this value and the other fields in this
 * structure.
 *
 * Similarly, the open_trace_file, close_trace_file, and trace_file_name
 * fields do not appear in H5C_auto_size_ctl_t, as most trace file
 * issues are handled at the H5AC level.  The one exception is storage of
 * the pointer to the trace file, which is handled by H5C.
 *
 * The structure is in H5ACpublic.h as we may wish to allow different
 * configuration options for metadata and raw data caches.
 *
 * The fields of the structure are discussed individually below:
 *
 * version: Integer field containing the version number of this version
 *      of the H5AC_cache_config_t structure.  Any instance of
 *      H5AC_cache_config_t passed to the cache must have a known
 *      version number, or an error will be flagged.
 *
 * rpt_fcn_enabled: Boolean field used to enable and disable the default
 *	reporting function.  This function is invoked every time the
 *	automatic cache resize code is run, and reports on its activities.
 *
 *	This is a debugging function, and should normally be turned off.
 *
 * open_trace_file: Boolean field indicating whether the trace_file_name
 * 	field should be used to open a trace file for the cache.
 *
 * 	The trace file is a debuging feature that allow the capture of
 * 	top level metadata cache requests for purposes of debugging and/or
 * 	optimization.  This field should normally be set to FALSE, as
 * 	trace file collection imposes considerable overhead.
 *
 * 	This field should only be set to TRUE when the trace_file_name
 * 	contains the full path of the desired trace file, and either
 * 	there is no open trace file on the cache, or the close_trace_file
 * 	field is also TRUE.
 *
 * close_trace_file: Boolean field indicating whether the current trace
 * 	file (if any) should be closed.
 *
 * 	See the above comments on the open_trace_file field.  This field
 * 	should be set to FALSE unless there is an open trace file on the
 * 	cache that you wish to close.
 *
 * trace_file_name: Full path of the trace file to be opened if the
 * 	open_trace_file field is TRUE.
 *
 * 	In the parallel case, an ascii representation of the mpi rank of
 * 	the process will be appended to the file name to yield a unique
 * 	trace file name for each process.
 *
 * 	The length of the path must not exceed H5AC__MAX_TRACE_FILE_NAME_LEN
 * 	characters.
 *
 * evictions_enabled:  Boolean field used to either report the current
 * 	evictions enabled status of the cache, or to set the cache's
 *	evictions enabled status.
 *
 * 	In general, the metadata cache should always be allowed to
 * 	evict entries.  However, in some cases it is advantageous to
 * 	disable evictions briefly, and thereby postpone metadata
 * 	writes.  However, this must be done with care, as the cache
 * 	can grow quickly.  If you do this, re-enable evictions as
 * 	soon as possible and monitor cache size.
 *
 * 	At present, evictions can only be disabled if automatic
 * 	cache resizing is also disabled (that is, ( incr_mode ==
 *	H5C_incr__off ) && ( decr_mode == H5C_decr__off )).  There
 *	is no logical reason why this should be so, but it simplifies
 *	implementation and testing, and I can't think of any reason
 *	why it would be desireable.  If you can think of one, I'll
 *	revisit the issue.
 *
 * set_initial_size: Boolean flag indicating whether the size of the
 *      initial size of the cache is to be set to the value given in
 *      the initial_size field.  If set_initial_size is FALSE, the
 *      initial_size field is ignored.
 *
 * initial_size: If enabled, this field contain the size the cache is
 *      to be set to upon receipt of this structure.  Needless to say,
 *      initial_size must lie in the closed interval [min_size, max_size].
 *
 * min_clean_fraction: double in the range 0 to 1 indicating the fraction
 *      of the cache that is to be kept clean.  This field is only used
 *      in parallel mode.  Typical values are 0.1 to 0.5.
 *
 * max_size: Maximum size to which the cache can be adjusted.  The
 *      supplied value must fall in the closed interval
 *      [MIN_MAX_CACHE_SIZE, MAX_MAX_CACHE_SIZE].  Also, max_size must
 *      be greater than or equal to min_size.
 *
 * min_size: Minimum size to which the cache can be adjusted.  The
 *      supplied value must fall in the closed interval
 *      [H5C__MIN_MAX_CACHE_SIZE, H5C__MAX_MAX_CACHE_SIZE].  Also, min_size
 *      must be less than or equal to max_size.
 *
 * epoch_length: Number of accesses on the cache over which to collect
 *      hit rate stats before running the automatic cache resize code,
 *      if it is enabled.
 *
 *      At the end of an epoch, we discard prior hit rate data and start
 *      collecting afresh.  The epoch_length must lie in the closed
 *      interval [H5C__MIN_AR_EPOCH_LENGTH, H5C__MAX_AR_EPOCH_LENGTH].
 *
 *
 * Cache size increase control fields:
 *
 * incr_mode: Instance of the H5C_cache_incr_mode enumerated type whose
 *      value indicates how we determine whether the cache size should be
 *      increased.  At present there are two possible values:
 *
 *      H5C_incr__off:  Don't attempt to increase the size of the cache
 *              automatically.
 *
 *              When this increment mode is selected, the remaining fields
 *              in the cache size increase section ar ignored.
 *
 *      H5C_incr__threshold: Attempt to increase the size of the cache
 *              whenever the average hit rate over the last epoch drops
 *              below the value supplied in the lower_hr_threshold
 *              field.
 *
 *              Note that this attempt will fail if the cache is already
 *              at its maximum size, or if the cache is not already using
 *              all available space.
 *
 *      Note that you must set decr_mode to H5C_incr__off if you
 *      disable metadata cache entry evictions.
 *
 * lower_hr_threshold: Lower hit rate threshold.  If the increment mode
 *      (incr_mode) is H5C_incr__threshold and the hit rate drops below the
 *      value supplied in this field in an epoch, increment the cache size by
 *      size_increment.  Note that cache size may not be incremented above
 *      max_size, and that the increment may be further restricted by the
 *      max_increment field if it is enabled.
 *
 *      When enabled, this field must contain a value in the range [0.0, 1.0].
 *      Depending on the incr_mode selected, it may also have to be less than
 *      upper_hr_threshold.
 *
 * increment:  Double containing the multiplier used to derive the new
 *      cache size from the old if a cache size increment is triggered.
 *      The increment must be greater than 1.0, and should not exceed 2.0.
 *
 *      The new cache size is obtained my multiplying the current max cache
 *      size by the increment, and then clamping to max_size and to stay
 *      within the max_increment as necessary.
 *
 * apply_max_increment:  Boolean flag indicating whether the max_increment
 *      field should be used to limit the maximum cache size increment.
 *
 * max_increment: If enabled by the apply_max_increment field described
 *      above, this field contains the maximum number of bytes by which the
 *      cache size can be increased in a single re-size.
 *
 * flash_incr_mode:  Instance of the H5C_cache_flash_incr_mode enumerated
 *      type whose value indicates whether and by which algorithm we should
 *      make flash increases in the size of the cache to accomodate insertion
 *      of large entries and large increases in the size of a single entry.
 *
 *      The addition of the flash increment mode was occasioned by performance
 *      problems that appear when a local heap is increased to a size in excess
 *      of the current cache size.  While the existing re-size code dealt with
 *      this eventually, performance was very bad for the remainder of the
 *      epoch.
 *
 *      At present, there are two possible values for the flash_incr_mode:
 *
 *      H5C_flash_incr__off:  Don't perform flash increases in the size of
 *              the cache.
 *
 *      H5C_flash_incr__add_space:  Let x be either the size of a newly
 *              newly inserted entry, or the number of bytes by which the
 *              size of an existing entry has been increased.
 *
 *              If
 *                      x > flash_threshold * current max cache size,
 *
 *              increase the current maximum cache size by x * flash_multiple
 *              less any free space in the cache, and star a new epoch.  For
 *              now at least, pay no attention to the maximum increment.
 *
 *      In both of the above cases, the flash increment pays no attention to
 *      the maximum increment (at least in this first incarnation), but DOES
 *      stay within max_size.
 *
 *      With a little thought, it should be obvious that the above flash
 *      cache size increase algorithm is not sufficient for all circumstances
 *      -- for example, suppose the user round robins through
 *      (1/flash_threshold) +1 groups, adding one data set to each on each
 *      pass.  Then all will increase in size at about the same time, requiring
 *      the max cache size to at least double to maintain acceptable
 *      performance, however the above flash increment algorithm will not be
 *      triggered.
 *
 *      Hopefully, the add space algorithms detailed above will be sufficient
 *      for the performance problems encountered to date.  However, we should
 *      expect to revisit the issue.
 *
 * flash_multiple: Double containing the multiple described above in the
 *      H5C_flash_incr__add_space section of the discussion of the
 *      flash_incr_mode section.  This field is ignored unless flash_incr_mode
 *      is H5C_flash_incr__add_space.
 *
 * flash_threshold: Double containing the factor by which current max cache
 *      size is multiplied to obtain the size threshold for the add_space flash
 *      increment algorithm.  The field is ignored unless flash_incr_mode is
 *      H5C_flash_incr__add_space.
 *
 *
 * Cache size decrease control fields:
 *
 * decr_mode: Instance of the H5C_cache_decr_mode enumerated type whose
 *      value indicates how we determine whether the cache size should be
 *      decreased.  At present there are four possibilities.
 *
 *      H5C_decr__off:  Don't attempt to decrease the size of the cache
 *              automatically.
 *
 *              When this increment mode is selected, the remaining fields
 *              in the cache size decrease section are ignored.
 *
 *      H5C_decr__threshold: Attempt to decrease the size of the cache
 *              whenever the average hit rate over the last epoch rises
 *              above the value supplied in the upper_hr_threshold
 *              field.
 *
 *      H5C_decr__age_out:  At the end of each epoch, search the cache for
 *              entries that have not been accessed for at least the number
 *              of epochs specified in the epochs_before_eviction field, and
 *              evict these entries.  Conceptually, the maximum cache size
 *              is then decreased to match the new actual cache size.  However,
 *              this reduction may be modified by the min_size, the
 *              max_decrement, and/or the empty_reserve.
 *
 *      H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold:  Same as age_out, but we only
 *              attempt to reduce the cache size when the hit rate observed
 *              over the last epoch exceeds the value provided in the
 *              upper_hr_threshold field.
 *
 *      Note that you must set decr_mode to H5C_decr__off if you
 *      disable metadata cache entry evictions.
 *
 * upper_hr_threshold: Upper hit rate threshold.  The use of this field
 *      varies according to the current decr_mode:
 *
 *      H5C_decr__off or H5C_decr__age_out:  The value of this field is
 *              ignored.
 *
 *      H5C_decr__threshold:  If the hit rate exceeds this threshold in any
 *              epoch, attempt to decrement the cache size by size_decrement.
 *
 *              Note that cache size may not be decremented below min_size.
 *
 *              Note also that if the upper_threshold is 1.0, the cache size
 *              will never be reduced.
 *
 *      H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold:  If the hit rate exceeds this
 *              threshold in any epoch, attempt to reduce the cache size
 *              by evicting entries that have not been accessed for more
 *              than the specified number of epochs.
 *
 * decrement: This field is only used when the decr_mode is
 *      H5C_decr__threshold.
 *
 *      The field is a double containing the multiplier used to derive the
 *      new cache size from the old if a cache size decrement is triggered.
 *      The decrement must be in the range 0.0 (in which case the cache will
 *      try to contract to its minimum size) to 1.0 (in which case the
 *      cache will never shrink).
 *
 * apply_max_decrement:  Boolean flag used to determine whether decrements
 *      in cache size are to be limited by the max_decrement field.
 *
 * max_decrement: Maximum number of bytes by which the cache size can be
 *      decreased in a single re-size.  Note that decrements may also be
 *      restricted by the min_size of the cache, and (in age out modes) by
 *      the empty_reserve field.
 *
 * epochs_before_eviction:  Integer field used in H5C_decr__age_out and
 *      H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold decrement modes.
 *
 *      This field contains the number of epochs an entry must remain
 *      unaccessed before it is evicted in an attempt to reduce the
 *      cache size.  If applicable, this field must lie in the range
 *      [1, H5C__MAX_EPOCH_MARKERS].
 *
 * apply_empty_reserve:  Boolean field controlling whether the empty_reserve
 *      field is to be used in computing the new cache size when the
 *      decr_mode is H5C_decr__age_out or H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold.
 *
 * empty_reserve:  To avoid a constant racheting down of cache size by small
 *      amounts in the H5C_decr__age_out and H5C_decr__age_out_with_threshold
 *      modes, this field allows one to require that any cache size
 *      reductions leave the specified fraction of unused space in the cache.
 *
 *      The value of this field must be in the range [0.0, 1.0].  I would
 *      expect typical values to be in the range of 0.01 to 0.1.
 *
 *
 * Parallel Configuration Fields:
 *
 * In PHDF5, all operations that modify metadata must be executed collectively.
 * We used to think that this was enough to ensure consistency across the
 * metadata caches, but since we allow processes to read metadata individually,
 * the order of dirty entries in the LRU list can vary across processes,
 * which can result in inconsistencies between the caches.
 *
 * To prevent this, only the metadata cache on process 0 is allowed to write
 * to file, and then only after synchronizing with the other caches.  After
 * it writes entries to file, it sends the base addresses of the now clean
 * entries to the other caches, so they can mark these entries clean as well.
 *
 * The different caches know when to synchronize caches by counting the
 * number of bytes of dirty metadata created by the collective operations
 * modifying metadata.  Whenever this count exceeds a user specified
 * threshold (see below), process 0 flushes down to its minimum clean size,
 * and then sends the list of newly cleaned entries to the other caches.
 *
 * dirty_bytes_threshold:  Threshold of dirty byte creation used to
 * 	synchronize updates between caches. (See above for outline and
 *	motivation.)
 *
 *	This value MUST be consistant across all processes accessing the
 *	file.  This field is ignored unless HDF5 has been compiled for
 *	parallel.
