2010-08-20snmp: Patch 1125Micael Karlberg
OTP-8478 [agent] Added very basic support for multiple SNMPv3 EngineIDs in a single agent.
2010-08-20kernel: Patch 1124Hans Bolinder
OTP-8686 A bug introduced in kernel-2.13.5.3 has been fixed.
2010-08-20megaco: Patch 1123Micael Karlberg
OTP-8561 A minor compiler related performance improvement. OTP-8529 A raise condition when, during high load, processing both the original and a resent message and delivering this as two separate messages to the user. Note that this solution only protects against multiple reply deliveries! OTP-8627 Fix shared libraries installation. The flex shared lib(s) were incorrectly installed as data files. OTP-8634 Eliminated a possible raise condition while creating pending counters.
2010-08-20inets: Patch 1122Micael Karlberg
OTP-8609 [httpc] Made cookie handling more case insensitive. OTP-8610 [httpc|httpd] Some netscape cookie dates are given with a 2-digit year (e.g. 06 = 2006). OTP-8624 [httpd] Added support (again) for the documented debugging features. See the User's Guide Configuration chapter for more info.
2010-08-20kernel: Patch 1121Hans Bolinder
OTP-8643 Under certain circumstances the net kernel could hang. (Thanks to Scott Lystig Fritchie.)
2010-08-20ssh: Patch 1119Niclas Eklund
OTP-8550 The function ssh:connect/4 was not exported. OTP-8644 Aligned error message with used version (SSH_FX_FAILURE vs SSH_FX_NOT_A_DIRECTORY, the latter introduced in version 6). OTP-8645 Resolved race condition when another connection is started before a channel is opened in the first connection. OTP-8535 The configuration parameter ip_v6_disabled is now available, which makes it possible for the user to alter the IP version SSH shall use. OTP-8534 The ssh_connection:send operation now accepts infinity as timeout. OTP-8524 The connection handler now include stack traces when a channel message is not handled correctly.
2010-08-20snmp: Patch 1118Micael Karlberg
OTP-8574 The SMI specifies that an table row OID should be named: { "1" }. An option has been introduced, relaxed_row_name_assign_check, that allows for a more liberal numbering scheme. OTP-8594 Changes to make snmp (forward) compatible with the new version of the crypto application (released in R14). As of R14, crypto is implemented using NIFs. Also, the API is more strict. OTP-8648 [manager] Changed default value for the MIB server cache. Auto GC is now on by default. OTP-8563 Decoding of Counter64 values larger then 9306882749598007295 fails. Counter64 is encoded as an 64 bit signed integer, but is actually an unsigned integer, which the decoder does not take into account. OTP-8595 [compiler] Fails to compile non-contiguous BITS. Per Hedeland OTP-8646 [manager] Raise condition causing the manager server process to crash. Unregistering an agent while traffic (set/get-operations) is ongoing could cause a crash in the manager server process (raise condition).
2010-08-20sasl: Patch 1116Björn Gustavsson
OTP-8619 In R13B04 sys:get_status was modified to invoke format_status/2 in the callback module if the module exports that function. This resulted in a change to the term returned from calling sys:get_status on the supervisor module, since supervisor is a gen_server and gen_server exports format_status. The sasl release_handler_1 module had a dependency on the pre-R13B04 term returned by sys:get_status when invoked on a supervisor, so the R13B04 change broke that dependency. This problem has been fixed by change release_handler_1 to handle both the pre-R13B04 and R13B04 terms that sys:get_status can return from a supervisor.
2010-08-20inets: Patch 1115Micael Karlberg
OTP-8542 [httpc] Memory leak plugged. The profile manager never cleaned up in its handler database. This meant that with each new request handler, another entry was created that was never deleted. Eventually the request id counter (used as a key) would wrap, but the machine would most likely run out of memory before that happened. OTP-8607 [httpc] https requests with default port not handled properly. Jebu Ittiachen.
2010-08-20erts: Patch 1113Rickard Green
OTP-8475 Driver threads, such as async threads, using port data locks peeked at the port status field without proper locking when looking up the driver queue. OTP-8487 A call to the BIF unregister(RegName) when a port had the name RegName registered in the runtime system without SMP support caused a runtime system crash. (Thanks to Per Hedeland for the bugfix and test case.) OTP-8591 Fix memory management bug causing crash of non-SMP emulator with async threads enabled. The bug did first appear in R13B03.
2010-08-20public_key, ssl: Patch 1112Dan Gudmundsson
OTP-7046 Support for Diffie-Hellman. ssl-3.11 requires public_key-0.6. OTP-8553 Moved extended key usage test for ssl values to ssl. OTP-8557 Fixes handling of the option fail_if_no_peer_cert and some undocumented options. Thanks to Rory Byrne. OTP-7046 Support for Diffie-Hellman. ssl-3.11 requires public_key-0.6. OTP-8517 New ssl now properly handles ssl renegotiation, and initiates a renegotiation if ssl/ltls-sequence numbers comes close to the max value. However RFC-5746 is not yet supported, but will be in an upcoming release. OTP-8545 When gen_tcp is configured with the {packet,http} option, it automatically switches to expect HTTP Headers after a HTTP Request/Response line has been received. This update fixes ssl to behave in the same way. Thanks to Rory Byrne. OTP-8554 Ssl now correctly verifies the extended_key_usage extension and also allows the user to verify application specific extensions by supplying an appropriate fun. OTP-8560 Fixed ssl:transport_accept/2 to return properly when socket is closed. Thanks to Rory Byrne.
2010-08-20inets: Patch 1111Micael Karlberg
OTP-8508 [httpc] Badly formated error reason for errors occuring during initial connec to a servert. Also, the possible error reasons was not properly documented. OTP-8509 [httpd] Issues with ESI erl_script_timeout. </p> *) The "erl_script_timeout" config option is ducumented as a number of seconds. But when parsing the config, in the new format (not a config file), it was handled as if in number of milliseconds. *) When the erl-script-timeout time was exceeded, the server incorrectly marked the answer as sent, thereby leaving client hanging (with an incomplete answer). This has been changed, so that now the socket will be closed.
2010-08-20ssl: Patch 1110Dan Gudmundsson
OTP-8510 Fixed a crash in the certificate certification part.
2010-08-20sasl: Patch 1109Björn Gustavsson

2010-08-20kernel: Patch 1109Rickard Green
OTP-8502 A race condition in <c>os:cmd/1</c> could cause the caller to get stuck in <c>os:cmd/1</c> forever.
2010-08-20snmp: Patch erl_1108Micael Karlberg
OTP-8480 [agent] A minor mnesia related performance improvement. OTP-8481 [manager] Fixed an upgrade/downgrade problem. Upgrade/downgrade from/to 4.13.5 did not work for the net-if process. This has now been fixed

2010-08-18Remove ticket numbers from all vsn.mk filesBjörn Gustavsson
Some application's vsn.mk files contained a list of the ticket numbers fixed in each version. Since that information can be obtained from the notes.xml file or from the merge commits in the git repository (provided that the branch name includes the ticket number), there is no reason to manually maintain that information in the vsn.mk files.
2010-08-18Fix bug in ssl handshake protocol related to the choice of cipher suitesPaul Guyot
in client hello message when a client certificate is used The client hello message now always include ALL available cipher suites (or those specified by the ciphers option). Previous implementation would filter them based on the client certificate key usage extension (such filtering only makes sense for the server certificate).

2010-08-18Do not check the padding for TLS 1.0Ingela Anderton Andin
For interoperability reasons we do not check the padding in TLS 1.0 as it is not strictly required and breaks interopability with for instance Google.

* dgud/wx/system_settings: Implemented wxSystemSettings class.
2010-08-18Stop including in .gitignore files in the source tar filesBjörn Gustavsson
There is a .gitignore file in every otherwise empty directory, as well as a few other .gitignore files. Including all these .gitignore files in the source code distribution serves no useful purpose.
2010-08-17Solaris/x86: Handle floating point exceptions properly in driver threadsBjörn Gustavsson
On Solaris/x86, the floating point exceptions bits seems to be propagated to child threads, so if scheduler threads use floating points exceptions, also driver threads will have floating points exception enabled. The problem is that erts_thread_init_float() has not been called for driver threads, and because of that matherr() will crash when called. Fix matherr() so that it will work even if erts_thread_init_float() has not been called. This fix was suggested by Mikael Pettersson.
2010-08-17erts: Remove broken elib_mallocBjörn Gustavsson
elib_malloc is an alternate memory allocator that is no longer possible to build.
2010-08-17erts: Remove the unused mem_drv driverBjörn Gustavsson
The mem_drv driver was only useful when elib_malloc was active.
2010-08-17erts: Remove stray pre-ISO-C compatibility macrosBjörn Gustavsson
A long time ago, the Erlang run-time system could be build with pre-ANSI/ISO-C (K&R) C compilers, but that is no longer possible. Remove the remaining uses of the compatibility macros that made it possible that possible.
2010-08-14erts: Remove unused decl.hBjörn Gustavsson
The header file erts/emulator/beam/decl.h is no longer used.
2010-08-13fix hipe_bifs_alloc_data_2 to avoid "Yikes!" warningMikael Pettersson
It's been reported that HiPE-enabled Erlang VMs running on BSD systems sometimes generate messages like Yikes! erts_alloc() returned misaligned address 0x8016a512c These originate from hipe_bif0.c:hipe_bifs_alloc_data_2(). A native code module has an associated data area of some size and alignment. In the case where the size is zero, the alignment is irrelevant, but the allocation BIF checks it anyway. The warning then triggers on systems where malloc(0) returns blocks with less alignment than we (erroneously) expected. The fix is to simply skip the allocation in this case and return NULL. The loader won't actually use the address in this case so that's safe. This is also an optimization since it avoids allocating memory that cannot be used, and it avoids fragmenting the system heap with useless tiny blocks. A second problem is that the warning message failed to identify its origin. Fixed by prefixing the message by the BIF's name rather than the silly Yikes! string. Tested and confirmed to solve the original reporter's problem.
2010-08-12Merge branch 'bjorn/remove-obsolete-driver-support/OTP-8758' into devBjörn Gustavsson

2010-08-11Fix faulty no_empty_run_queues assertionRickard Green
For a short period of time no_empty_run_queues may have been increased twice for a specific run queue. Two assertions did not take this into account.
