2017-05-23escript: Do not split path to Erlang system into multiple wordsRickard Green
escript failed to start Erlang systems with spaces in the absolute path (when absolute path was used).

Erlang system found in PATH was used even when explicitly pointing out the escript binary in another Erlang system.
2017-05-23Revert setting default argv0 nameDan Gudmundsson
Changing argv[0] from emu name to progname if ESCRIPT_NAME was not set caused to many failing scripts, revert that part of the change. See 86f6a9856
2017-05-16Teach erlexec the -emu_type optionBjörn Gustavsson
Add the option -emu_type to start an emulator of a certain type. For exampe, "-emu_type lcnt" will start beam.lcnt.smp. Any string will be accepted after -emu_type. If there is no corresponding emulator, there will be an error similar to: erlexec: The emulator '.../bin/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/beam.foo.smp' does not exist. On Windows, there is an undocumented option "-debug". Remove that option, because -emu_type can be used instead.

2016-12-22escript: Handle symbolic link to a standalone escriptHåkan Mattsson
The code has been rearranged to make use of the actual path "get_default_emulator(scriptname)" to the escript instead of the given one "get_default_emulator(argv[0])". TL;DR Assume a source system with some Erlang applications (app1, app2 etc.) and an escript called "mytool". When generating a standalone target system (with reltool for example), the escript(s) are located in the same top bin directory as "erl". See mytool* below. In such a system the original "mytool" escript is given the extension ".escript" and the file with the same name as the original escript is a copy of the "escript" executable. One purpose of the escript executable is to determine which "erl" to use to start the system. In a standalone system we want it to find the runtime system bundled with the escript(s). This is done by analyzing the path in order to find the "erl" located in the same directory as the escript. A dilemma here is that we do not want to put the top bin directory in the execution path (PATH env var) as we then would cause other Erlang applications to make use of our bundled run-time system. One way of solving this is to choose some suitable bin directory in the execution path (such as /user/local/bin) and put a symbolic link there to our mytool executable. Unfortunately this did not work as the escript executable (in this case called mytool) would try to find "erl" in /usr/local/bin and when it did not find such a file it resorted to use the command "erl" which would find some (unwanted) "erl" in the execution path. My fix solves that problem. ├── bin/ │   ├── erl* (dyn_erl.c) │   ├── mytool* (escript.c) │   ├── mytool.escript* (original mytool escript) │   └── start_clean.boot ├── erts-vsn/ │   └── bin/ │   ├── beam* │   ├── beam.smp* │   ├── erl* │   ├── erl_child_setup* │   ├── erlexec* │   └── inet_gethost* └── lib/ ├── app1-vsn ├── app2-vsn └── ...
2016-11-21Remove vestiges of watchdog support in heartMagnus Henoch
Hardware watchdog support was removed from heart in R13A, but there were still some vestiges in the code and the documentation. - Remove mentions of the HW_WD_DISABLE variable, as it's no longer used. - Remove the HEART_BEAT_BOOT_DELAY variable, as it was only used for the hardware watchdog.

If the environment variable HEART_NO_KILL is set then heart won't kill the old erlang process. This is desirable if the command executed by heart takes care of this.
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.

2016-05-10erts: Implement max_heap_size process flagLukas Larsson
The max_heap_size process flag can be used to limit the growth of a process heap by killing it before it becomes too large to handle. It is possible to set the maximum using the `erl +hmax` option, `system_flag(max_heap_size, ...)`, `spawn_opt(Fun, [{max_heap_size, ...}])` and `process_flag(max_heap_size, ...)`. It is possible to configure the behaviour of the process when the maximum heap size is reached. The process may be sent an untrappable exit signal with reason kill and/or send an error_logger message with details on the process state. A new trace event called gc_max_heap_size is also triggered for the garbage_collection trace flag when the heap grows larger than the configured size. If kill and error_logger are disabled, it is still possible to see that the maximum has been reached by doing garbage collection tracing on the process. The heap size is defined as the sum of the heap memory that the process is currently using. This includes all generational heaps, the stack, any messages that are considered to be part of the heap and any extra memory the garbage collector may need during collection. In the current implementation this means that when a process is set using on_heap message queue data mode, the messages that are in the internal message queue are counted towards this value. For off_heap, only matched messages count towards the size of the heap. For mixed, it depends on race conditions within the VM whether a message is part of the heap or not. Below is an example run of the new behaviour: Eshell V8.0 (abort with ^G) 1> f(P),P = spawn_opt(fun() -> receive ok -> ok end end, [{max_heap_size, 512}]). <0.60.0> 2> erlang:trace(P, true, [garbage_collection, procs]). 1 3> [P ! lists:duplicate(M,M) || M <- lists:seq(1,15)],ok. ok 4> =ERROR REPORT==== 26-Apr-2016::16:25:10 === Process: <0.60.0> Context: maximum heap size reached Max heap size: 512 Total heap size: 723 Kill: true Error Logger: true GC Info: [{old_heap_block_size,0}, {heap_block_size,609}, {mbuf_size,145}, {recent_size,0}, {stack_size,9}, {old_heap_size,0}, {heap_size,211}, {bin_vheap_size,0}, {bin_vheap_block_size,46422}, {bin_old_vheap_size,0}, {bin_old_vheap_block_size,46422}] flush().

that uses its own super carrier (erts_exec_mmapper) to guarantee low addressed and executable memory (PROT_EXEC). Currently only used on x86_64 that needs low memory for HiPE/AMD64's small code model. By initializing erts_exec_mapper early we secure its low memory area before erts_literal_mmapper might steal it.

Except it cannot be disabled and cannot be multi-threaded. The bit-vector 'erts_literal_vspace_map' on 32-bit is currently only protected by the literal allocator mutex. We could allow multiple instances on 64-bit (I think), but what would be the point?
