2016-01-25erts: Fix harmless dialyzer warningsSverker Eriksson
2016-01-19erts: Ignore unexpected messages to erts_code_purgerSverker Eriksson
2016-01-13erts: Optimize erlang:check_process_codeSverker Eriksson
by ignoring literals. erts_internal:check_process_code will be called again anyway (with option {copy_literals, true}) before the module is actually purged. No need to check literals twice.
2016-01-13erts: Make copy_literals more fail safeSverker Eriksson
* Same process must do enable-disable. * System process will force it and never get 'aborted'
2016-01-13erts: Move copy_literals/2 from erlang to erts_internalSverker Eriksson
as it's not a public interface.
2016-01-13erts: Make erlang:purge_module/1 safeSverker Eriksson
Problem: erlang:purge_module/1 is not safe in the sense that very bad things may happen if the code to be purged is still referred to by live processes. Introduce erts_internal:purge_module which is the same as the old erlang:purge_module BIF (except it returns false if no such old module). Implement erlang:purge_module in Erlang and let it invoke erts_code_purger for safe purging where all clogging processes first are killed.
2016-01-13erts: Refactor code:purge/1 and code:soft_purge/1Sverker Eriksson
by moving code from code_server to erts_code_purger. This is more or less a copy-paste from code_server.erl to erts_code_purger.erl. All the inner mechanics of code:purge/1 and code:soft_purge/1 are unchanged.
2016-01-13erts: Introduce erts_code_purgerSverker Eriksson
as a system process with preloaded code.
