2016-12-12erts: Make depth of current_stacktrace configurableHåkan Mattsson
The BIF process_info(Pid, current_stacktrace) truncates the stacktrace. The old behavior was to truncate long stacktraces to max 8 items. And this was hard coded. Now it is truncated to the value of system_flag(backtrace_depth) instead. The backtrace_depth defaults to 8, but is configurable.

2016-12-01stdilb: Check for bad type constraints in function typesHans Bolinder
The parser recognizes the 'is_subtype(V, T)' syntax for constraints, and of course the new 'V :: T' syntax, but other variants result in an error message. Up to now, the parser and linter have let badly formed constraints through, and relied upon Dialyzer to emit warnings. is_subtype/2 cannot easily be taken out from the parser. Not only would we need find a way to emit a (linter) warning, but there also needs to be an option for suppressing the linter warning as compilation with +warnings_as_errors has to work. (Notice that the abstract format representation for 'V :: T' is the same as for 'is_subtype(V, T)'.) This correction was triggered by an email from Robert, and Kostis created pull request 1214 to provide a fix. However, Kostis' fix disallowed is_subtype() altogether, which breaks backward compatibility. As of Erlang/OTP 19.0 (ticket OTP-11879), the 'is_subtype(V, T)' is no longer documented.

2016-09-19Use more correct delimiters for erl_nif.h includeTuncer Ayaz
Anywhere but the beam sources we shouldn't #include "erl_nif.h", because what "erl_nif.h" does is: (1) fail to find it outside of -I dirs, (2) then treat it as if it was written like <erl_nif.h>. Using <erl_nif.h> skips (1). More information can be found in 6.10.2 of the C standard. Because the examples use "erl_nif.h", NIF projects in the Erlang ecosystem copy this verbatim and make the same mistake.
