* maint: erts: Add the +sfwi system flag
2013-06-11erts: Add the +sfwi system flagRickard Green
+sfwi Interval Set scheduler forced wakeup interval. All run queues will be scanned each Interval milliseconds. While there are sleeping schedulers in the system, one scheduler will be woken for each non-empty run queue found. An Interval of zero disables this feature, which also is the default. This feature has been introduced as a temporary workaround for lengthy executing native code, and native code that do not bump reductions properly in OTP. When these bugs have be fixed the +sfwi flag will be removed.

2013-04-17Add documentation of w, i and e addition to +fnu and +fna switches to erlSiri Hansen
These were documented in the stdlib user's guide, but not in the reference manual for erl. This has now been corrected.

2012-05-10Remove stale code for hybrid heap and incremental GCBjörn Gustavsson
The hybrid heap emulator was last working in the non-SMP R11B run-time system. When the constant pools were introduced in R12B, the hybrid heap emulator was not updated to handle them. At this point, the harm from reduced readability of the code is greater than any potential usefulness of keeping the code.

2011-12-01Deprecate erlang:system_flag/2 arguments scheduler_bind_type and cpu_topologyRickard Green
The use of erlang:system_flag(scheduler_bind_type, _) and erlang:system_flag(cpu_topology, _) have been deprecated and scheduled for removal in erts-5.10/OTP-R16. For more information see the documentation of erlang:system_flag/2.

* rickard/default-unbound/OTP-9726: Use unbound schedulers as default
2011-11-18Use unbound schedulers as defaultRickard Green
As of ERTS version 5.9 (OTP-R15B) the runtime system will by default not bind schedulers to logical processors. If the Erlang runtime system is the only operating system process that binds threads to logical processors, this improves the performance of the runtime system. However, if other operating system processes (as for example another Erlang runtime system) also bind threads to logical processors, there might be a performance penalty instead. In some cases this performance penalty might be severe. Due to this, we change the default so that the user must make an active decision in order to bind schedulers.
