List of HDF5 VFL Functions
The following functions support the HDF5 virtual file layer (VFL), enabling
the creation of customized I/O drivers.
At this time, these functions are documented only in the HDF5 Virtual File
Layer design document and in the source code.
herr_t H5Pset_driver(hid_t plist_id, hid_t driver_id,
const void *driver_info)
void *H5Pget_driver_info(hid_t plist_id)
hid_t H5FDregister(const H5FD_class_t *cls);
herr_t H5FDunregister(hid_t driver_id);
H5FD_t *H5FDopen(const char *name, unsigned flags, hid_t fapl_id,
haddr_t maxaddr);
herr_t H5FDclose(H5FD_t *file);
int H5FDcmp(const H5FD_t *f1, const H5FD_t *f2);
int H5FDquery(const H5FD_t *f, unsigned long *flags);
haddr_t H5FDalloc(H5FD_t *file, H5FD_mem_t type, hsize_t size);
herr_t H5FDfree(H5FD_t *file, H5FD_mem_t type, haddr_t addr, hsize_t size);
haddr_t H5FDrealloc(H5FD_t *file, H5FD_mem_t type, haddr_t addr,
hsize_t old_size, hsize_t new_size);
haddr_t H5FDget_eoa(H5FD_t *file);
herr_t H5FDset_eoa(H5FD_t *file, haddr_t eof);
haddr_t H5FDget_eof(H5FD_t *file);
herr_t H5FDread(H5FD_t *file, H5FD_mem_t type, hid_t dxpl_id, haddr_t addr,
size_t size, void *buf/*out*/);
herr_t H5FDwrite(H5FD_t *file, H5FD_mem_t type, hid_t dxpl_id,
haddr_t addr, size_t size, const void *buf);
herr_t H5FDflush(H5FD_t *file, unsigned closing);
