2017-11-30Remove all mention of efile_drv from DTrace docsJohn Högberg
efile_drv is gone and so is the need for file-specific DTrace. The new implementation works fine with the normal tracing mechanism so there's nothing preventing anyone from making an erl_tracer nif that forward these events to DTrace.

2016-08-31Remove old purge strategyRickard Green
2016-08-29Fix purge of codeRickard Green
Ensure that we cannot get any dangling pointers into code that has been purged. This is done by a two phase purge. At first phase all fun entries pointing into the code to purge are marked for purge. All processes trying to call these funs will be suspended and by this we avoid getting new direct references into the code. When all processes has been checked, these processes are resumed. The new purge strategy now also completely ignore the existence of indirect references to the code (funs). If such exist, they will cause bad fun exceptions to the caller, but will not prevent a soft purge or cause a kill of a process having such live references during a hard purge. This since it is impossible to give any guarantees that no processes in the system have such indirect references. Even when the system is completely clean from such references, new ones can appear via distribution and/or disk.

2016-03-17configure: Remove obsolete --enable-darwin-* optionsBjörn Gustavsson
Remove the options: --enable-darwin-universal --enable-darwin-64bit The --enable-darwin-universal option turns on universal binaries (Intel/PPC). It does not work on modern releases of OS X, and OTP 19 will most not likely build on an OS X release that still supports universal builds. The --enable-darwin-64bit option is not needed, because 64-bit builds are default on modern OS X releases. There is also the generic --enable-m64-build option.

I found that I needed to take the two steps I added to INSTALL.md for this PR, or else fop execution when doing a "make docs" would fail with either a Java ClassNotFoundException or command "fop" not found: * Adding the FOP install directory to $FOP_HOME * Adding the fop script to $PATH

- Documented the configure switch --with-clock-resolution=<RES> - Changed default clock source for OS system time on Darwin to gettimeofday(). In order to use clock_get_time(CALENDER_CLOCK, ...) on Darwin, the user has to pass --with-clock-resolution=high when configuring the build.
