erlang:get_stacktrace/0 returns the stacktrace for the latest
exception. The problem is that the stacktrace is kept until the next
exception occurs. If the last exception was a 'function_clause' or a
'badarg', the arguments for the call are also kept forever. The
arguments can be terms of any size (potentially huge).
In a future release, we would like to only allow
erlang:get_stacktrace/0 from within a 'try' expression. That would
make it possible to clear the stacktrace when the 'try' expression is
exited.
The 'catch' expression has no natural end where the stacktrace could
be cleared. The stacktrace could be cleared at the end of the function
that the 'catch' occurs in, but that would cause problems in the
following scenario (from real life, but simplified):
try
...
catch _:_ ->
io:format(...),
io:format("~p\n", [erlang:get_stacktrace()])
end.
%% In io.erl.
format(Fmt, Args) ->
Res = case ... of
SomePattern ->
catch...
...;
SomeOtherPattern ->
%% Output the formatted string here
...
end,
clear_stacktrace(), %% Inserted by compiler.
Res.
The call to io:format() would always clear the stacktrace before
it could be retrieved.
That problem could be solved by tightning the scope in which the
stacktrace is kept, but the rules for how long erlang:get_stacktrace/0
would work would become complicated.
Therefore, the solution we suggest for a future major release of
OTP is that erlang:get_stacktrace/0 will return [] if it is called
outside the 'catch' part of a 'try' expression.
To help users prepare, introduce a warning when it is likely that
erlang:get_stacktrace/0 will always return an empty list, for example
in this code:
catch error(foo),
Stk = erlang:get_stacktrace()
or in this code:
try Expr
catch _:_ -> ok end,
Stk = erlang:get_stacktrace()

Make calls to get_stacktrace/0 future-proof
OTP-14400
|

In the future, erlang:get_stacktrace/0 will probably only work
inside a the 'catch' block of a 'try' expression.
Future-proof the code by rewriting the old-style catch to
a try...catch.

The return value of erlang:get_stacktrace/0 is not defined
when called like this:
try Expr of
Pattern ->
erlang:get_stacktrace()
end
Currently, the stacktrace will be from a random earlier error.
In a future release, it may be [].
Note: We can remove the entire 'case' statement because
CTHReason can never be an atom.

The following new functions are added to ct_netconfc:
* connect/1,2 - open an SSH connection to a netconf server
* disconnect/1 - close the given SSH connectoin
* session/1,2,3 - open an SSH channel on the give connection and send
'hello' to start a netconf session.
This allows running multiple channels on on SSH connection, realizing
one netconf session per channel. The existing ct_netconfc:open will
always run one channel(session) per SSH connection.

p->fvalue will be set by BIFs that generate exceptions
(such as throw/1), and it will not be cleared before another
exception is generated. Potentially, p->fvalue may contain a
huge term (e.g. after throw(HugeTerm)) which will be kept in
the heap.
We can shorten the lifetime of f->value by clearing it in
the instructions that handle catches: catch_end and try_end.
That is safe because BEAM code will never access p->fvalue.
If BEAM code needs to rethrow an exception it will use a
reference to the value passed in an X register.
The reason that p->fvalue must not be cleared already in
handle_error() is that native code trap handlers will use
it. (See the comment before handle_error() and the comment
at the end of handle_error() in beam_emu.c for some more
information about exception handling.)
