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.

2016-05-25Use the -epmd_module flag consistentlyMagnus Henoch
If the -epmd_module flag has been specified on the command line, use that module to register and look up node names instead of the default, erl_epmd. Also document this option.
2016-05-25Add -start_epmd command line optionMagnus Henoch
Add a command line option that lets you disable automatic starting of epmd when starting a distributed node. This differs from the undocumented setting -no_epmd, in that it does not affect the starting of an erl_epmd process within erl_distribution: the newly started node will expect an epmd instance to have been started previously.

2016-05-24erts: Move tracer SecondTraceTerm to Opts mapLukas Larsson
The extra trace data has been moved to the opts map in order for the tracer to be able to distinguish inbetween extra trace data 'undefined' and no extra trace data. In the same commit all opts associations have been changed so that if the tracer should not use them, the key is left unassicated instead of being sent to undefined. This should be give a small performance gain and also makes the API easier to work with.
