Wrote and changed some tests in stdlib:erl_lint_SUITE
nowarn_bif_clash is obsoleted but will remove warnings and errors about bif
clashes. The recommended way is to use no_auto_import directives instead.
Hopefully erlang.erl is the only user in the world of nowarn_bif_clash.

Added only a few testcases in compiler:error_SUITE and guard_SUITE
The new behaviour of warnings and errors when overriding autoimported BIF's:
Bifs that were autoimported before R14 are dangerous because old code
using them and overriding them in exports can start behaving
differently. For newly added autoimports this can't happen to the new
code that wants to (or dont want to) use them, why only warnings are
added for the BIFs autoimported after the compilator change. Errors
are issued only for code that could have worked in one way in R13 and
now will behave in a different way.
If overriding autoimport with local function:
- if explicit -compile directive supresses autoimport
-> no message
else
- if called from inside module
- if pre R14 autoimported bif
-> error
else
-> warning
else
-> no message
If overriding autoimport with import directive
- if explicit -compile directive supresses autoimport
-> no message
else (regardless of actual usage)
- if pre R14 autoimported bif
-> error
else
-> warning
Calls of local functions or imports overriding autoimported functions
(either post R14 or by using explicit -compile supressions of
autoimport) always goes to the local function or the imported.
The compileation errors are added to not let code like this silently
and disastrously change its semantic (probably to an infinite loop)
between R13 and R14:
----------
-module(m).
-export([length/1]).
length(X) ->
...
Y = length(Z),
....
----------
The user has to select if he/she wants to call length in 'erlang' explicitly
or if the overriding semantics is desired, in which case the -compile
directive has to be used.
-compile({no_auto_import,[F/A]}). Is added to allow to override the
autoimports so that code gets unanbiguous. The directive will remove
an autoimport even if there is no local function or import overriding,
because any other behaviour would be inconsistent and confusing.
record_info and module_info can never be overridden.

Import directives still not sorted out!

Expressions evaluating to integers can now be used in types and function
specifications where hitherto only integers were allowed
("Erlang_Integer").

* jv/autoimport-binary_to_term_2:
Change binary_to_term/2 to be auto-imported
OTP-8671 jv/autoimport-binary_to_term_2
Now, binary_to_term/2 is auto-imported. This will cause a compile warning
if and only if a module has got a local function with that name.

Combine a sequence of chained is_eq_exact instructions into
a select_val instruction.

The erl_expand_records compiler pass translates the
following code:
h(X) when X#r1.a =:= 1 -> ok.
to (essentially):
h({r1,V1,V2}=X) when element(2, X) =:= 1 -> ok.
Since the guard can only be executed when the pattern matching
has succeeded, we know that the second element in the tuple X
must have been bound to V2. Thus we can eliminate the call
to element/2 like this:
h({r1,V1,V2}=X) when V1 =:= 1 -> ok.

The compiler currently generates better code for:
f(#r1{}) -> r1;
f(#r2{}) -> r2;
f(#r3{}) -> r3.
than for:
g(X) when is_record(X, r1) -> r1;
g(X) when is_record(X, r2) -> r2;
g(X) when is_record(X, r3) -> r3.
The compiler generates good code for pattern matching (as in f/1),
but in g/1 there are no patterns to match, and the clause to be
executed must be chosen by evaluating the guards sequentially
until one succeeds.
Make the compiler generate better code by replacing calls to
is_record() with matching in the function head (basically,
g/1 will automatically be rewritten to do pattern matching
as in f/1).
Note that this rewrite will also benefit code such as:
h(X) when X#r1.a =:= 1 -> ok.
because it would have been rewritten to:
h(X) when (is_record(X, r1, 3) orelse fail) and (element(2, X) =:= 1) ->
ok.
which in turn will be rewritten to:
h({r1,_,_}=X) when (true orelse fail) and (element(2, X) =:= 1) ->
ok.
(That will be further simplified in later compiler passes.)

* rn/resolver-leaking-ports:
Resolver: make inet_dns decode ugly truncated reply
Resolver: stop inet_res leaking ports
OTP-8652 inet_res leaking ports
The kernel DNS resolver was leaking one or two ports if the DNS reply could
not be parsed or if the resolver(s) caused noconnection type errors. Bug
now fixed. A DNS specification borderline truncated reply triggering the
port leakage bug has also been fixed.

Of the core networking apps only net_kernel fails to have a catchall
for unknown gen_server:call messages causing it to exit and eventually
bring down kernal_sup and beam if it had not been manually started.
For stability and consistancy it has been altered to include a
catchall which does not reply.
|
|
* dgud/emacs-catch-improvements:
Improved indentation of old catch.
Added more type highlighting and fixed record indentation with types.
|
|
* kj/emacs-erlang-flymake:
erlang-flymake: Document in README
erlang-flymake: Make the syntax check command configurable
erlang-flymake: By default pass <app>/include and <app>/ebin to compiler
erlang-flymake: Include in Makefile
erlang-flymake: Syntax check erlang code on the fly (using flymake)

Under certain circumstances the net kernel could hang. (Thanks to Scott
Lystig Fritchie.)
|
|
Added cross configuration file for mips-linux. (Thanks to Matthias Lang for
the configuration)
|
|
ethr_rwmutex_tryrlock() acquired and refused to acquire a lock with
inverted logic. The lock was however never acquired in a thread unsafe
manner. (Thanks to JR Zhang for noting this issue)
|
|
Writer preferred pthread read/write locks has been enabled on Linux.
|
|
The number of spinlocks used when implementing atomic fall-backs when no
native atomic implementation is available has been increased from 16 to
1024.
|
|
Port locks could be prematurely destroyed.
|
|
Support for using gcc's built-in functions for atomic memory access has
been added. This functionallity will be used if available and no other
native atomic implementation in ERTS is available.
|
|
Missing memory barriers in erts_poll() could cause the runtime system to
hang indefinitely.

An example that didn't work previously.

Type highlighting reported by Jay Nelson
non_neg_integer() will highlight purple but pos_integer() does not.
Closing record indentation problem reported by Maxim Treskin:
-record(state, {
sequence_number = 1 :: integer()
}).

Hopefully this covers at least some of the common cases and makes the
flymake support more usable as is. The purpose of including the ebin
directory is to support things like behaviours and parse transforms.

Bugfix: a DNS reply with the truncation bit set containing
misleading section length (i.e header claimed length greater
than what was actually in the reply section) in the header
caused decode error in inet_dns.
|
|
Bugfix: when all nameservers return a reply causing decode errors
or when errors enetunreach or econnrefused occured while
contacting them, one or two UDP ports was leaked i.e
left open and forgotten.
|
|
This BIF was only used by the now broken SAE support.
|
|
The experimental Standalone Erlang (SAE) support based on
Joe Armstrong's work has long been broken. Remove the remaining
code and Makefile rules.

In the following scenario list_to_existing_atom/1 may crash
during handshake:
Start a node in one window:
erl -sname adam@localhost
Start another node in another window:
erl -sname bertil
In this node, ping the first node (use the actual hostname
in the command):
net:ping(adam@hostname).
There will be an error report similar to:
=ERROR REPORT==== 27-May-2010::15:03:14 ===
Error in process <0.40.0> on node 'bertil@hostname' with exit value: {badarg,[{erlang,list_to_existing_atom,
["adam@localhost"]},{dist_util,recv_challenge,1},{dist_util,handshake_we_started,1}]}
Eliminate the crash and the error report by catching the call to
list_to_existing_atom/1 and do a clean shutdown if it fails.
