2017-11-20Fix max atom size overflow on 64-bits Erlang by lowering theBoshan Sun
MAX_ATOM_TABLE_SIZE Currently, the max atom size on 64-bits Erlang is ((UWORD_CONSTANT(1) << 32) = 4294967296 This number will cause the range of atom size to be displayed as [8192-0]. Also, the +t option for max atom size will be parsed as a long type, and assigned to a int variable erts_atom_table_size (erl_init.c), which will cause integer overflow if the number is larger than the maximum value a 4-bytes signed integer can hold ((1 << 31) - 1) = 2147483647 Therefore, during the comparison erts_atom_table_size < MIN_ATOM_TABLE_SIZE any number above 2147483647 will be come negative, and causing the condition to be true, which then errored out as bad atom table size. Hence, the actual max atom size is same as the max signed int value.
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).

2016-11-17erts: Refactor crash dumping with cbprintfSverker Eriksson
Instead of passing around a file descriptor use a function pointer to facilitate more advanced backend write logic such as size limitation or compression.
2016-10-13Add system_info(atom_limit)Gabriele Santomaggio
Add system_info(atom_limit) to provide a way to retrieve the maximum number of atoms allowed. Add tests and documentation for it too. Also split system_info_SUITE:start_node/2 to start_node_ets/2 and start_node_atm/2 to avoid code duplication.

2010-02-02Add the +t emulator option to change the maximum number of atomsJulien Barbot
It is now possible to increase or decrease the maximum number of atoms the VM can handle. The default value is 1048576 (1024*1024).
