2017-02-06Atomic reference count of binaries also in non-SMPRickard Green
NIF resources was not handled in a thread-safe manner in the runtime system without SMP support. As a consequence of this fix, the following driver functions are now thread-safe also in the runtime system without SMP support: - driver_free_binary() - driver_realloc_binary() - driver_binary_get_refc() - driver_binary_inc_refc() - driver_binary_dec_refc()

* josevalim/atu8-chunk/PR-1078/OTP-14178: Add new AtU8 beam chunk
2017-01-30Add new AtU8 beam chunkJosé Valim
The new chunk stores atoms encoded in UTF-8. beam_lib has also been modified to handle the new 'utf8_atoms' attribute while the 'atoms' attribute may be a missing chunk from now on. The binary_to_atom/2 BIF can now encode any utf8 binary with up to 255 characters. The list_to_atom/1 BIF can now accept codepoints higher than 255 with up to 255 characters (thanks to Björn Gustavsson).

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.
