* \section sec_hldo_intro Introduction
*
* The HDF5 Dataset Optimization (H5DO) interface provides high-performance functions for specialized
* dataset I/O operations that bypass standard HDF5 processing layers when appropriate.
*
* @see H5DO Reference Manual
*
* Since version 1.10.3 these functions are deprecated in favor of #H5Dwrite_chunk and #H5Dread_chunk.
*
* \section sec_hldo_direct_chunk Direct Chunk Write Function
* When a user application has a chunked dataset and is trying to write a single chunk of data with
* #H5Dwrite, the data goes through several steps inside the HDF5 library. The library first examines the
* hyperslab selection. Then it converts the data from the datatype in memory to the datatype in the file if
* they are different. Finally, the library processes the data in the filter pipeline. Starting with
* the 1.8.11 release, a new high-level C function called #H5DOwrite_chunk becomes available. It writes a data
* chunk directly to the file bypassing the library’s hyperslab selection, data conversion, and filter
* pipeline processes. In other words, if an application can pre-process the data, then the application can
* use #H5DOwrite_chunk to write the data much faster.
*
* #H5DOwrite_chunk was developed in response to a client request. The client builds X-ray pixel
* detectors for use at synchrotron light sources. These detectors can produce data at the rate of tens of
* gigabytes per second. Before transferring the data over their network, the detectors compress the data
* by a factor of 10 or more. The modular architecture of the detectors can scale up its data stream in
* parallel and maps well to current parallel computing and storage systems.
* See the \ref_rfc20121114 for the original proposal.
*
* \subsection subsec_hldo_direct_chunk_using Using the Direct Chunk Write Function
* Basically, the #H5DOwrite_chunk function takes a pre-processed data chunk (buf) and its size
* (data_size) and writes to the chunk location (offset) in the dataset ( dset_id).
*
* The function prototype is shown below:
* \code
* herr_t H5DOwrite_chunk(
* hid_t dset_id, // the dataset
* hid_t dxpl_id, // data transfer property list
* uint32_t filter_mask, // indicates which filters are used
* hsize_t* offset, // position of the chunk
* size_t data_size, // size of the actual data
* const void* buf // buffer with data to be written
* )
* \endcode
*
* Below is a simple example showing how to use the function:
* <em>Example 1. Using H5DOwrite_chunk</em>
* \code
* hsize_t offset[2] = {4, 4};
* uint32_t filter_mask = 0;
* size_t nbytes = 40;
* if(H5DOwrite_chunk(dset_id, dxpl, filter_mask, offset, nbytes, data_buf) < 0)
* goto error;
* \endcode
*
* In the example above, the dataset is 8x8 elements of int. Each chunk is 4x4. The offset of the first
* element of the chunk to be written is 4 and 4. In the diagram below, the shaded chunk is the data to be
* written. The function is writing a pre-compressed data chunk of 40 bytes (assumed) to the dataset. The
* zero value of the filter mask means that all filters have been applied to the pre-processed data.
*
* <table>
* <tr>
* <td>
* \image html DOChunks_fig1.png "Figure 1. Illustration of the chunk to be written"
* </td>
* </tr>
* </table>
*
* The complete code example at the end of this topic shows how to set the value of the filter mask to
* indicate a filter being skipped. The corresponding bit in the filter mask is turned on when a filter is
* skipped. For example, if the second filter is skipped, the second bit of the filter mask should be turned
* on. For more information, see the #H5DOwrite_chunk entry in the \ref RM.
*
* \subsection subsec_hldo_direct_chunk_design The Design
* The following diagram shows how the function #H5DOwrite_chunk bypasses hyperslab selection, data
* conversion, and filter pipeline inside the HDF5 library.
*
* <table>
* <tr>
* <td>
* \image html DOChunks_fig2.png "Figure 2. Diagram for H5DOwrite_chunk"
* </td>
* </tr>
* </table>
*
* \subsection subsec_hldo_direct_chunk_perf Performance
* The table below describes the results of performance benchmark tests run by HDF developers. It shows
* that using the new function #H5DOwrite_chunk to write pre-compressed data is much faster than using
* the #H5Dwrite function to compress and write the same data with the filter pipeline. Measurements
* involving #H5Dwrite include compression time in the filter pipeline. Since the data is already
* compressed before #H5DOwrite_chunk is called, use of #H5DOwrite_chunk to write compressed data
* avoids the performance bottleneck in the HDF5 filter pipeline.
*
* The test was run on a Linux 2.6.18 / 64-bit Intel x86_64 machine. The dataset contained 100 chunks.
* Only one chunk was written to the file per write call. The number of writes was 100. The time
* measurement was for the entire dataset with the Unix system function gettimeofday. Writing the
* entire dataset with one write call took almost the same amount of time as writing chunk by chunk. In
* order to force the system to flush the data to the file, the O_SYNC flag was used to open the file.

*
* \subsection subsec_hldo_direct_chunk_caution A Word of Caution
* Since #H5DOwrite_chunk writes data chunks directly in a file, developers must be careful when using it.
* The function bypasses hyperslab selection, the conversion of data from one datatype to another, and
* the filter pipeline to write the chunk. Developers should have experience with these processes before
* they use this function.
*
* \subsection subsec_hldo_direct_chunk_example A Complete Code Example
