Add initial support for dirty schedulers.
There are two types of dirty schedulers: CPU schedulers and I/O
schedulers. By default, there are as many dirty CPU schedulers as there are
normal schedulers and as many dirty CPU schedulers online as normal
schedulers online. There are 10 dirty I/O schedulers (similar to the choice
of 10 as the default for async threads).
By default, dirty schedulers are disabled and conditionally compiled
out. To enable them, you must pass --enable-dirty-schedulers to the
top-level configure script when building Erlang/OTP.
Current dirty scheduler support requires the emulator to be built with SMP
support. This restriction will be lifted in the future.
You can specify the number of dirty schedulers with the command-line
options +SDcpu (for dirty CPU schedulers) and +SDio (for dirty I/O
schedulers). The +SDcpu option is similar to the +S option in that it takes
two numbers separated by a colon: C1:C2, where C1 specifies the number of
dirty schedulers available and C2 specifies the number of dirty schedulers
online. The +SDPcpu option allows numbers of dirty CPU schedulers available
and dirty CPU schedulers online to be specified as percentages, similar to
the existing +SP option for normal schedulers. The number of dirty CPU
schedulers created and dirty CPU schedulers online may not exceed the
number of normal schedulers created and normal schedulers online,
respectively. The +SDio option takes only a single number specifying the
number of dirty I/O schedulers available and online. There is no support
yet for programmatically changing at run time the number of dirty CPU
schedulers online via erlang:system_flag/2. Also, changing the number of
normal schedulers online via erlang:system_flag(schedulers_online,
NewSchedulersOnline) should ensure that there are no more dirty CPU
schedulers than normal schedulers, but this is not yet implemented. You can
retrieve the number of dirty schedulers by passing dirty_cpu_schedulers,
dirty_cpu_schedulers_online, or dirty_io_schedulers to
erlang:system_info/1.
Currently only NIFs are able to access dirty scheduler
functionality. Neither drivers nor BIFs currently support dirty
schedulers. This restriction will be addressed in the future.
If dirty scheduler support is present in the runtime, the initial status
line Erlang prints before presenting its interactive prompt will include
the indicator "[ds:C1:C2:I]" where "ds" indicates "dirty schedulers", "C1"
indicates the number of dirty CPU schedulers available, "C2" indicates the
number of dirty CPU schedulers online, and "I" indicates the number of
dirty I/O schedulers.
Document The dirty NIF API in the erl_nif man page. The API closely follows
Rickard Green's presentation slides from his talk "Future Extensions to the
Native Interface", presented at the 2011 Erlang Factory held in the San
Francisco Bay Area. Rickard's slides are available online at
http://bit.ly/1m34UHB .
Document the new erl command-line options, the additions to
erlang:system_info/1, and also add the erlang:system_flag/2 dirty scheduler
documentation even though it's not yet implemented.
To determine whether the dirty NIF API is available, native code can check
to see whether the C preprocessor macro ERL_NIF_DIRTY_SCHEDULER_SUPPORT is
defined. To check if dirty schedulers are available at run time, native
code can call the boolean enif_have_dirty_schedulers() function, and Erlang
code can call erlang:system_info(dirty_cpu_schedulers), which raises
badarg if no dirty scheduler support is available.
Add a simple dirty NIF test to the emulator NIF suite.

A process requesting a system task to be executed in the context of
another process will be notified by a message when the task has
executed. This message will be on the form:
{RequestType, RequestId, Pid, Result}.
A process requesting a system task to be executed can set priority
on the system task. The requester typically set the same priority
on the task as its own process priority, and by this avoiding
priority inversion. A request for execution of a system task is
made by calling the statically linked in NIF
erts_internal:request_system_task(Pid, Prio, Request). This is an
undocumented ERTS internal function that should remain so. It
should *only* be called from BIF implementations.
Currently defined system tasks are:
* garbage_collect
* check_process_code
Further system tasks can and will be implemented in the future.
The erlang:garbage_collect/[1,2] and erlang:check_process_code/[2,3]
BIFs are now implemented using system tasks. Both the
'garbage_collect' and the 'check_process_code' operations perform
or may perform garbage_collections. By doing these via the
system task functionality all garbage collect operations in the
system will be performed solely in the context of the process
being garbage collected. This makes it possible to later implement
functionality for disabling garbage collection of a process over
context switches.
Newly introduced BIFs:
* erlang:garbage_collect/2 - The new second argument is an option
list. Introduced option:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous garbage collect requests.
* erlang:check_process_code/3 - The new third argument is an
option list. Introduced options:
* {async, RequestId} - making it possible for users to issue
asynchronous check process code requests.
* {allow_gc, boolean()} - making it possible to issue requests
that aren't allowed to garbage collect (operation will abort
if gc should be needed).
These options have been introduced as a preparation for
parallelization of check_process_code operations when the
code_server is about to purge a module.

The sync option adds the POSIX O_SYNC flag to the open system call on
platforms that support the flag or its equivalent, e.g.,
FILE_FLAG_WRITE_THROUGH on Windows. For platforms that don't support it,
file:open/2 returns {error, enotsup} if the sync option is passed in.
The semantics of O_SYNC are platform-specific. For example, not all
platforms guarantee that all file metadata are written to the disk along
with the file data when the flag is in effect. This issue is noted in the
documentation this commit adds for the sync option.
Add a test for the sync option. Note however that the underlying OS
semantics for O_SYNC can't be tested automatically in any practical way, so
the test assumes the OS does the right thing with the flag when
present. For manual verification, dtruss on OS X and strace on Linux were
both run against beam processes to watch calls to open(), and file:open/2
was called in Erlang shells to open files for writing, both with and
without the sync option. Both the dtruss output and the strace output
showed that the O_SYNC flag was present in the open() calls when sync was
specified and was clear when sync was not specified.

This function normalizes a path:
* convert atoms to strings
* flatten strings
* convert backslash to a forward slash
The bugfix is to only convert backslashes to forward slashes on
windows and not on any other platforms.

Add system_info(ets_limit) to provide a way to retrieve the runtime's
maximum number of ETS tables. Add tests and documentation for it too.
Also repair the alphabetical order of system_info/1 argument descriptions
in the documentation and in the erlang.erl clauses. Add new preloaded
erlang.erl due to that change. Also ensure all system_info/1 clauses are
represented in the erlang.xml source documentation -- a couple had been
inadvertently dropped in previous commits when other clauses were added.

Add the {active,N} socket option, where N is an integer in the range
-32768..32767, to allow a caller to specify the number of data messages to
be delivered to the controlling process. Once the socket's delivered
message count either reaches 0 or is explicitly set to 0 with
inet:setopts/2 or by including {active,0} as an option when the socket is
created, the socket transitions to passive ({active, false}) mode and the
socket's controlling process receives a message to inform it of the
transition. TCP sockets receive {tcp_passive,Socket}, UDP sockets receive
{udp_passive,Socket} and SCTP sockets receive {sctp_passive,Socket}.
The socket's delivered message counter defaults to 0, but it can be set
using {active,N} via any gen_tcp, gen_udp, or gen_sctp function that takes
socket options as arguments, or via inet:setopts/2. New N values are added
to the socket's current counter value, and negative numbers can be used to
reduce the counter value. Specifying a number that would cause the socket's
counter value to go above 32767 causes an einval error. If a negative
number is specified such that the counter value would become negative, the
socket's counter value is set to 0 and the socket transitions to passive
mode. If the counter value is already 0 and inet:setopts(Socket,
[{active,0}]) is specified, the counter value remains at 0 but the
appropriate passive mode transition message is generated for the socket.
This commit contains a modified preloaded prim_inet.beam due to changes in
prim_inet.erl.
Add tests for {active,N} mode for TCP, UDP, and SCTP sockets.
Add documentation for {active,N} mode for inet, gen_tcp, gen_udp, and
gen_sctp.

When integer_to_binary/2 receives 0 or a negative number as an argument
with a base that is different from 10, it will return incorrect values
(<<>> in the case of 0) or it will crash (with negative numbers). This
commit fixes these problems and adds tests to cover these cases.
