Change to compiler support

As from this release, support for gcc7 is added
Note that C++17 is not yet fully supported, waiting for support from ROOT

[MR !836] Suppress legitimate -Wimplicit-fallthrough warnings from gcc7

[MR !830] Fix to allow compilation with gcc 7.1

[MR !804] Remove use of register keyword as storage classifier

New or changed functionality

[MR !861] LHCbMath: backport some developments (and fixes) from ostap-standalone
1. Fix for Lomont' next_float/next_double method. Other functors from this file were also rewritten properly.
2. Bernstein polynomials:
* improve numerical stability of polinomial division
* remove gcd (better to keep it in python using proper efficient divmod from C++)
* add functions ( splits, control polygon, convex hulls, crossing points...) that allow easy and efficient implementation of root-finding in python
3. B-spline
* improve numerical stability
* add knot insertion using Boehm's algorithm
* add functions (split, knot inserions, contorl polygons, convex hulls, crossing points) that allow easy and efficient implementation of root-finding in python
* add spline VDM approximatinon
* add spline interpolation
* add Berstein -> BSpline conversion
* make some internal algorithm "visible" and usable outside b-spline ( de Boor, Boehm, ...)
4. Add few useful functions&objects into LHCb::Math namespace

[MR !848] LHCbMath - Add AVX Guard class
Simple AVX 'guard' class that calls _mm256_zeroupper() when it goes out of scope

[MR !793] Update default DDDB tags according to LHCBCNDB-646
Introduces new ParticleTable.txt in DDDB with following global tags:

Name               Based on         Datatype

[MR !777] New linker base class in Associators/AssociatorsBase
See LHCBPS-1742

[MR !905] Restore the default behaviour of AlgContextSvc
The behaviour was changed in Gaudi v29r0, see gaudi/Gaudi!409. This change is needed in order to be able to determine the parent of public tools during intitialize (mostly for LoKi functors).

Code optimisations

[MR !856] Update VectorClass
1. Update VectorClass to latest version.
2. Add the missing instrset_detect.cpp file to the library.

[MR !911] Truncate existing raw files when writing
Currently, if a raw file exists, it is not truncated when opened for writing. If the existing file has a larger size, the leftover bytes at the end will be left there and further reading will lead to segvs due to the corrupted file.
This MR simply adds the O_TRUNC flag to the open call and a test that verifies the correct behaviour.

[MR !916] LoKiCore fix for regression discussed in Phys!206

Monitoring changes

Update L0DURawBankMonitor to handle not-reported conditions (when number of L0 conditions exceeds 32). Only affects the online monitoring in Orwell.

Code modernisation

[MR !866] Modernize lomont
- Make constructors constexpr (again)
- Do not explicitly inhibit default constructor

[MR !858] Modernize TrackEvent
- remove virtual specification from LHCb::Track member functions
- remove use of deprecated (and removed in C++17) std::{unary,binary}_function
- remove unneccessary include of stdio.h and functional
- change functors to be non-template classes (structs) with a templated operator() -- this avoids having to specify a type when instantiating an instance of a functor
- remove commented out old code
- avoid unneccessary statics
- simplify Track::addToStates implementation -- no need to reserve first, do not modify the argument
- optimize Track::copy -- skip resetting data to zero when it will subsequently be overwritten

[MR !851] Use gsl::span instead of bare pointers to non-owned arrays in Similarity

[MR !826] Modernize hltservices
- replace CloseListener with a generic listener implementation
- make operator bool explicit
- rename flush in close
- do not use using namespace std::
- prefer pass-by-value followed by move

[MR !847] Modernize MuonDAQ
- remove private methods from IMuonRawBuffer interface
- add some const in IMuonRawBuffer interface
- prefer std::array over C-style arrays
- prefer zero initialization of array over .fill(0)
- make operator<< friend, in class scope, instead of in global scope
- make static constants constexpr
- prefer inherited constructors
- prefer switch/case over if-then
- prefer range-based loops
- prefer Gaudi::Property with direct member initialization over declareProperty
- reduce scope of variables as much as possible: only declare variables at the point they can be assigned a value
- use lambda to consolidate repeated code
- simplify a few arithmetic expressions
- prefer STL algorithms over raw loops
- use a scoped guard over explicitly grouped 'set/reset' calls
- prefer std::bitset over arrays of bool

[MR !852] Clarify ownership transfer in CaloHypo::setPosition

[MR !821] Modernize LoKi Primitives
Eliminate the need for Primitives.h to include itself after some pre-processor manipulations. This is done by avoiding the dedicated specialization for the 'void' functors (i.e. the case where there is no argument). Instead, use variadic number of arguments, and make both the case with and without argument a specialization.

In addition, implement Min and Max in terms of the generic BinaryOp -- which implies moving the handling of 3 or more functions into the min and max helpers in Math.h -- and Round in terms of the generic UnaryOp

[MR !816] Modernize TrackParameters, TrackUse
- use constexpr if possible
- remove deprecated std::unary_function
- prefer direct member initialization
- prefer STL algortihms over raw loops

[MR !794] Modernize HltInterfaces
- avoid mutable 'digest' data members
- prefer enum class for kinds (IAlgorithm,IService,IAlgTool) instead of strings
- make binary operators friend functions
- prefer STL algorithms over raw loops
- prefer boost::string_ref over const std::string& to avoid string copies

[MR !798, !784] Modernize LoKiCore
- introduce LOKI_REQUIRES macro to simplify SFINAE constraints
- prefer typename in template declarations
- introduce generic BindBinary functor, and use it to implement
- EqualToValue
- NotEqualToValue
- LessThanValue
- LessOrEqualValue
- GreaterThanValue
- GreaterOrEqualValue
- MultiplyByValue
- SumByValue
- Minus1
- Minus2
- Divide1
- Divide2
- remove fake argument in Round::Round
- add final to help the compiler de-virtualize
- remove SVN/CVS identifiers
- simplify LoKi::AddRef
- simplify LoKi::Const
- consolidate AlgFunctors: use baseclass + template implementation with a small struct to specialize
- add variadic min, max functors
- constrain FunctorArray constructor so it does not classify as copy c'tor
- generalize BinaryOp, and use it instead of Combination
- remove deprecated LoKi::select
- use Synced to guarantee that non-const static data is never accessed without lock

[MR !795, !792] Simplify DAQKernel
- prefer inherited constructors
- put all related explicit template instantiations in a single file
- eliminate the need for getIfExistRaw
- remove obsolete SVN/CVS identifiers
- prefer =default over explicit implementations

[MR !785] Add tagged_bool and use it to make ITrajPoca::minimize more explicit

[MR !782] Modernize bankKiller, OdinTypesFilter, OdinBCIDFilter
Use Gaudi::Property, and use the opportunity to replace string options by dedicated types

[MR !787] Modernize LHCbKernel
- prefer std::array over boost::array
- prefer auto
- prefer std::greater<> over std::greater

[MR !672] Modernize L0DUBase: replace C-style arrays by std::array

[MR !912] Improve type punning
- Introduce pun_to for type punning
- pun_to avoid the need to rely on C99 compatibility (accessing the 'non-active' member of a union is undefined behaviour in C++ -- but g++ behaves according to C99 in this respect)
- also, remove unneeded #include
- also, fully qualify enum values

Changes to tests

[MR !797] Add test for JIRA-LHCBPS-1743

[MR !908] testvdtmath_AVX2FMA.qmt: Ignore tiny difference in vdt::fast_cossin when FMA enabled

2017-07-11 LHCbSys v43r0

This version uses Gaudi v28r2 and LCG_82 with ROOT 6.08.06.

This version is released on master branch. The previous release on master branch was LHCb v42r3. This release contains all the changes that were made in LHCb v42r4 and LHCb v42r5 (released on 2017-patches branch, see corresponding release notes), as well as the additional changes described in this file.

Change to compiler support

As from this release, support for gcc49 is dropped
This means that C++14 is now fully supported

New or changed functionality

[MR !622] Scifi: New event model
The changes in the event model correspond to JIRA tasks: LHCBSCIFI-79, LHCBSCIFI-80
The default simulation is switched to the detailed digitisation. This is about 2 times faster that the current improved digitisation.

[MR !766] Added missing implementation of function DeFTLayer::quarters()

[MR !638] DetDescChecks: Added material budget scan script
The script matbud.py generates maps in (x, y) by integration of one over radiation length and one over interaction length for a given interval in the z dimension

[MR !698] CondDBBrowser updates
- Use Qt5 by default
- Small fixes to absorb differences between PyQt4 and PyQt5
- Add support for Git CondDB (read-only), see LHCBPS-1713
- Closes LHCBPS-1502

[MR !761] Modifications to RunChangeHandler to force the name change of conditions
- New option to force updating the conditions during the alignment iterations. Since the alignment xmls don’t change name during the job iteration, the default behaviour of RunChangeHandler would not allow to load the updated conditions from previous iteration.
- A test for this new ForceUpdate option was added

[MR !620] Relations: remove TO pointer value sorting from WEntry operator<
Addresses the issue with the Relations sorting that results in potentially unstable behaviour, by removing the sorting of the TO relations ranges based on TO pointer value.

Code optimisations

[MR !733] Fix compiler warnings in uncompiled header files
[MR !721] Avoid calling gaudi_install_headers twice

[MR !755] L0DURawBankMonitor was resetting the labels for some histo at each event. Protection added

Changes to tests

[MR !763] Implemented complete checking of counters in logs
Up to recently, counters were simply ignored in the log of the tests (except their header and thus the number of them). This commit puts in place systematic checking of all counters, with a default sensibility of 10-4. So differences are allowed as long as they are small enough compared to the value.

[MR !771] Increase VMEM test failure threshold to 1.4GB, to avoid false alarms

Avoids writing random data to the raw bank when the HltSelRepRawBank is not very big. This is harmless but would improve raw data checkusm consistency.

Changes to tests

[MR !865] Add support for Tesla tests running under 2012 data type
Some Tesla tests, in DaVinci, run using 2012 data and so set the DataType to '2012'. This MR allows Tesla to run with a 2012 data type, with the caveat that this is intended just for the pre-existing tests.

<

p> This version is released on 2017-patches branch.

Change to release notes format

As from this release, the file LHCbSys/doc/release.notes is frozen
Instead, there will be a file per release in the new ReleaseNotes directory. e.g. this file is called ReleaseNotes/v42r5.md

New or changed functionality

[MR !757] Support automatic Turbo unpacking in streamed data
meaning data with a RootInTES like /Event/<stream>/Turbo, which is what the data now looks like in 2017.

[MR !728] Add packers for CaloAdc and CaloDigit objects

[MR !747] Add KillSourceIDMask to bankKiller
Until now we could only filter on an exact sourceID. This is not sufficient to kill all HltSelReports banks in case there are multiple banks. Now there is an AND mask, and a bank is killed when KillSourceID != 0 && (KillSourceIDMask & sourceID == KillSourceID). The default behaviour is unchanged.

[MR !748] Bank killer based on line requests and decisions
- Add a trivial tool HDRFilterTool that implements the functionality of HDRFilter in a tool.
- Add a new algorithm DecisionBankKiller that given a set of lines (via the tool above) and a service that keeps track of line requests, leaves only the union of banks requested by fired lines.
- This MR implements the functionality needed for the selective raw bank persistence in TURBO, see LBHLT-164.

[MR !741] Add support for overlays on Git CondDB

Bug fixes

[MR !753] Fix memory leak in CaloHypo
Fixes the memory growth observed in the Tesla validation production: https://lblogbook.cern.ch/Operations/27129

Fixes the decoding of ProtoParticle and MuonPID HltObjectSummaries
Fixes also some unprotected debug() and untested StatusCode

[MR !742] Fix Upgrade tag names handling in CondDB configurable
Do not prepend upgrade/ to tags if not needed

[MR !736] Correctly protect debug messages in GitEntityResolver

Changes to tests

[MR !732] Increase slightly memory threshold of fsralgs.mergesmallfiles test failure
- Move to Git CondDB had pushed the test over threshold
- Also, suppress compilation warnings from Boost headers

[MR !711] Improve forwards and backwards compatibility of TurboConf
Overhaul TurboConf so that is will be easier to maintain in 2017 and 2018, whilst preserving backwards compatibility with 2015 and 2016.
