## Macro Definition Documentation

## ◆ H5AC__CACHE_IMAGE__ENTRY_AGEOUT__MAX

#define H5AC__CACHE_IMAGE__ENTRY_AGEOUT__MAX 100

Limit on number of times a prefetched entry can appear in subsequent cache images

Since
  1.10.1

## ◆ H5AC__CACHE_IMAGE__ENTRY_AGEOUT__NONE

#define H5AC__CACHE_IMAGE__ENTRY_AGEOUT__NONE -1

No limit on number of times a prefetched entry can appear in subsequent cache images

Since
  1.10.1

## ◆ H5AC__CURR_CACHE_CONFIG_VERSION

#define H5AC__CURR_CACHE_CONFIG_VERSION 1

Current version number of the metadata cache configuration structure

Since
  1.8.0

## ◆ H5AC__CURR_CACHE_IMAGE_CONFIG_VERSION

#define H5AC__CURR_CACHE_IMAGE_CONFIG_VERSION 1

Current version number of the metadata cache image configuration structure

Since
  1.10.1

## ◆ H5AC__MAX_TRACE_FILE_NAME_LEN

#define H5AC__MAX_TRACE_FILE_NAME_LEN 1024

Maximum allowed length (in characters) of a metadata cache trace file name

Since
  1.8.0

## ◆ H5AC_METADATA_WRITE_STRATEGY__DISTRIBUTED

#define H5AC_METADATA_WRITE_STRATEGY__DISTRIBUTED 1

Process 0 determines which metadata entries to flush, but the actual writes are distributed across processes at a sync point, with coordination ensuring each entry is flushed exactly once and marked clean everywhere.

Since
  1.8.6

## ◆ H5AC_METADATA_WRITE_STRATEGY__PROCESS_0_ONLY

#define H5AC_METADATA_WRITE_STRATEGY__PROCESS_0_ONLY 0

Only process 0 performs metadata writes to disk; other processes retain dirty metadata and mark entries clean only after process 0 flushes them and broadcasts the results at a sync point.

Since
  1.8.6
