This change handles erlang:localtime_to_universaltime(...,true) in timezones
without DST in a consistent way over platforms. Specifically BSD did return
an (accurate) -1 from mktime, which blew things up. Now all platforms regard
no DST as a DST with delta zero. Linux, SunOS, MacOS etc already did this,
why the behaviour on BSD was updated to the slightly incorrect one instead
of breaking backward compatibility on most other platforms.
Before this change, erlang:localtime_to_universaltime({{2008, 8, 1},
{0, 0, 0}},true) would return {1969, 12, 31}, {23, 59, 59}} when
TZ=UTC on FreeBSD, now it mimics the behaviour of other systems and returns
{{2008, 8, 1},{0, 0, 0}}.
The problem was originally reported by Paul Guyot on erlang-bugs mailing list:
http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-bugs/2008-November/001077.html
This correction replaces earlier BSD specific open source patches for this
problem.

Useful for informing the Operating System about the access pattern
for a file's data, so that it can adapt the caching strategy to
maximize disk IO performance.

file:datasync/1 invokes the POSIX system call "int fdatasync(int fd)".
This system call is similar to "fsync" but, unlike fsync, it does not
update the metadata associated with the file (like the access time for
example). It's used by many DBMSs (MySQL and SQLite of example) to
increase disk IO performance, as it avoids disk seeks and disk write
operations compared to fsync.
More details on it at:
http://linux.die.net/man/2/fdatasync
An example, from the MySQL source:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mysql/mysql-server/mysql-5.1-telco-6.1/annotate/head%3A/mysys/my_sync.c#L61
This new function just calls fsync on systems not implementing fdatasync.

The use of mmap() was unnecessarily disabled when cross compiling.
The configure arguments --with-ssl, and --with-odbc refused to accept
libraries outside of $erl_xcomp_sysroot when cross compiling for no good
reason.
The configure argument --with-odbc didn't handle the value yes correct.
The configure arguments --with-odbc, and --without-odbc have also been
added to the configure help.
(Thanks to Steve Vinoski for reporting these issues)

Store Erlang terms in 32-bit entities on the heap, expanding the
pointers to 64-bit when needed. This works because all terms are stored
on addresses in the 32-bit address range (the 32 most significant bits
of pointers to term data are always 0).
Introduce a new datatype called UWord (along with its companion SWord),
which is an integer having the exact same size as the machine word
(a void *), but might be larger than Eterm/Uint.
Store code as machine words, as the instructions are pointers to
executable code which might reside outside the 32-bit address range.
Continuation pointers are stored on the 32-bit stack and hence must
point to addresses in the low range, which means that loaded beam code
much be placed in the low 32-bit address range (but, as said earlier,
the instructions themselves are full words).
No Erlang term data can be stored on C stacks (enforced by an
earlier commit).
This version gives a prompt, but test cases still fail (and dump core).
The loader (and emulator loop) has instruction packing disabled.
The main issues has been in rewriting loader and actual virtual
machine. Subsystems (like distribution) does not work yet.

In UNIX test command, "==" is incorrect for string comparison;
"=" is the right operator. Originally pointed out by
Giacomo Olgeni in the following article:
http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-patches/2008-November/000334.html
and available as a FreeBSD port patch.
Accordingly fixed in erts/configure.in

* pan/enable_m32_build:
Teach configure --enable-m32-build for forcing a 32-bit build
OTP-8415 configure learned the option --enable-m32-build to force the
building of a 32-bit run-time on systems where the default C
compiler generates 64-bit executables by default.

* gc/hipe_darwin_amd64:
Fix hipe memory allocation problems on darwin/amd64
Porting x86 darwin fixes to amd64 darwin hipe asm/m4 code
Automatically enable hipe for darwin/amd64 builds
Allow configure to enable_hipe for darwin/amd64 builds
OTP-8416 HiPE now works in the 64-bit emulator on Mac OS X. (Thanks to
Geoff Cant.)

improvements.
Most notable:
Lots of cross compilation improvements. The old cross compilation
support was more or less non-existing as well as broken. Please,
note that the cross compilation support should still be
considered as experimental. Also note that old cross compilation
configurations cannot be used without modifications. For more
information on cross compiling Erlang/OTP see the
$ERL_TOP/xcomp/README file.
Support for staged install using <url
href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">D
ESTDIR</url>. The old broken INSTALL_PREFIX has also been fixed.
For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
Documentation of the release target of the top Makefile. For more
information see the $ERL_TOP/README file.
make install now by default creates relative symbolic links
instead of absolute ones. For more information see the
$ERL_TOP/README file.
$ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive now works and prints help for
all applications with configure scripts.
Doing make install, or make release directly after make all no
longer triggers miscellaneous rebuilds.
Existing bootstrap system is now used when doing make install, or
make release without a preceding make all.
The crypto and ssl applications use the same runtime library path
when dynamically linking against libssl.so and libcrypto.so. The
runtime library search path has also been extended.
The configure scripts of erl_interface and odbc now search for
thread libraries and thread library quirks the same way as erts
do.
The configure script of the odbc application now also looks for
odbc libraries in lib64 and lib/64 directories when building on a
64-bit system.
The config.h.in file in the erl_interface application is now
automatically generated in instead of statically updated which
reduces the risk of configure tests without any effect.

checking if CC equaled gcc. That is, the makefiles failed to
detect gcc C compilers with other command line names than gcc.
`configure' now substitute GCC into the makefiles. If CC is a gcc
C compiler, GCC will have the value yes. (Thanks to
Jean-S�bastien P�dron)

* tc/premodern-fpe:
Add -D_XOPEN_SOURCE to CPPFLAGS on Darwin platforms
Test for reliable fpes on Darwin platforms without DARWIN_MODERN_MCONTEXT
OTP-8368 The configure test for reliable floating point exceptions has
been update to work on modern versions of Mac OS X. (Thanks to
Trannie Carter.)
|
|
ucontext routines are deprecated in Snow Leopard and defining
_XOPEN_SOURCE is the suggested remedy.
|
|
The mcontext_t structure changed between Tiger & Leopard and the erts
configure script doesn't take this into account when testing for
reliable floating point exceptions. HiPE is not enabled when reliable
fpes are not detected.
The PPC test preserves the pre-modern mcontext_t and so builds on Tiger,
but I suspect that PPC/Leopard is broken. I don't have the header files
to check modern PPC mcontext_t so I haven't changed that part of the test.

new mandatory configuration variable that replaces all other
previously mandatory configuration variables, and better
documentation. Note that old cross compilation configurations
cannot be used without modifications.
