2011-09-19erts,kernel: Bugfix - read SCTP socket options from right protocol layerRaimo Niskanen
Socket options 'sndbuf', 'recbuf' and 'linger were read from the SCTP protocol layer instead of from the socket protocol layer. Conflicts: lib/kernel/test/gen_sctp_SUITE.erl
2011-09-19erts: Fix bug SCTP send can only be called from controlling processRaimo Niskanen
Conflicts: lib/kernel/test/gen_sctp_SUITE.erl
2010-08-20erts: Patch 1113Rickard Green
OTP-8475 Driver threads, such as async threads, using port data locks peeked at the port status field without proper locking when looking up the driver queue. OTP-8487 A call to the BIF unregister(RegName) when a port had the name RegName registered in the runtime system without SMP support caused a runtime system crash. (Thanks to Per Hedeland for the bugfix and test case.) OTP-8591 Fix memory management bug causing crash of non-SMP emulator with async threads enabled. The bug did first appear in R13B03.

2010-02-17OTP-8335 NIF improvements:Sverker Eriksson
Driver API for multi-threading made available for NIFs. Support for mempory managed (garbage collected) resource objects. A way to pass "pointers" to native data structures between C and Erlang in a safe way. Support for references, floats and term comparison. Various new functions, like enif_inspect_iolist_as_binary, enif_make_sub_binary, enif_get_string, enif_get_atom, enif_make_tuple_from_array, enif_make_list_from_array, enif_make_existing_atom.

2010-02-11OTP-8323 Cross compilation improvements and other build systemRickard Green
improvements. Most notable: Lots of cross compilation improvements. The old cross compilation support was more or less non-existing as well as broken. Please, note that the cross compilation support should still be considered as experimental. Also note that old cross compilation configurations cannot be used without modifications. For more information on cross compiling Erlang/OTP see the $ERL_TOP/xcomp/README file. Support for staged install using <url href="http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html">D ESTDIR</url>. The old broken INSTALL_PREFIX has also been fixed. For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file. Documentation of the release target of the top Makefile. For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file. make install now by default creates relative symbolic links instead of absolute ones. For more information see the $ERL_TOP/README file. $ERL_TOP/configure --help=recursive now works and prints help for all applications with configure scripts. Doing make install, or make release directly after make all no longer triggers miscellaneous rebuilds. Existing bootstrap system is now used when doing make install, or make release without a preceding make all. The crypto and ssl applications use the same runtime library path when dynamically linking against libssl.so and libcrypto.so. The runtime library search path has also been extended. The configure scripts of erl_interface and odbc now search for thread libraries and thread library quirks the same way as erts do. The configure script of the odbc application now also looks for odbc libraries in lib64 and lib/64 directories when building on a 64-bit system. The config.h.in file in the erl_interface application is now automatically generated in instead of statically updated which reduces the risk of configure tests without any effect. (Thanks to Henrik Riomar and Winston Smith for testing)

2010-02-11Fix CVE-2008-2371 (outer level option with alternatives caused crash).Michael Santos
The patch is from: http://vcs.pcre.org/viewvc?revision=360&view=revision Test case: re:compile(<<"(?i)[\xc3\xa9\xc3\xbd]|[\xc3\xa9\xc3\xbdA]">>, [unicode]). An option change at the start of a pattern that had top-level alternatives could cause overwriting and/or a crash. This potential security problem was recorded as CVE-2008-2371.

2010-02-10Merge branch 'egil/lcnt' into ccase/r13b04_devErlang/OTP
* egil/lcnt: Add test suite for lcnt in tools Add lcnt:rt_opt/1 bindings to erts_debug Add runtime option to enable/disable lcnt stats Add auto width on string output Add lcnt documentation Add lock profiling tool OTP-8424 Add lock profiling tool. The Lock profiling tool, lcnt, can make use of the internal lock statistics when the runtime system is built with this feature enabled. This provides a mechanism to examine potential lock bottlenecks within the runtime itself. - Add erts_debug:lock_counters({copy_save, bool()}). This option enables or disables statistics saving for destroyed processes and ets-tables. Enabling this might consume a lot of memory. - Add id-numbering for lock classes which is otherwise undefined.
2010-02-10Change erts/etc/unix/Install.src to explicitly set exit code to 0 at the end ↵Kenji Rikitake
of the script This patch will ensure the Install.src script to exit with the exit code 0 when the execution finished at the end of the script. Originally from FreeBSD port patch.
2010-02-10Fix the shell operator bug of "==" to "=" in erts/configure.inKenji Rikitake
In UNIX test command, "==" is incorrect for string comparison; "=" is the right operator. Originally pointed out by Giacomo Olgeni in the following article: http://www.erlang.org/pipermail/erlang-patches/2008-November/000334.html and available as a FreeBSD port patch. Accordingly fixed in erts/configure.in

* pan/enable_m32_build: Teach configure --enable-m32-build for forcing a 32-bit build OTP-8415 configure learned the option --enable-m32-build to force the building of a 32-bit run-time on systems where the default C compiler generates 64-bit executables by default.
2010-02-10Merge branch 'rani/inet_gethostbyname_fixes' into ccase/r13b04_devErlang/OTP
* rani/inet_gethostbyname_fixes: inet_res_SUITE: testcase fixes for legacy DNS resolver (Solaris 8) inet_res: /etc/resolv.conf: use domain as default search list inet: delayed/avoided read of /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts inet_gethost_native: workaround for empty result hostname on MacOS X inet_res_SUITE: testcase fix for empty domain name inet:gethostbyname improved to parse IP strings and look up own hostname OTP-8426 The resolver routines failed to look up the own node name as hostname, if the OS native resolver was erroneously configured, bug reported by Yogish Baliga, now fixed. The resolver routines now tries to parse the hostname as an IP string as most OS resolvers do, unless the native resolver is used. The DNS resolver inet_res and file resolver inet_hosts now do not read OS configuration files until they are needed. Since the native resolver is default, in most cases they are never needed. The DNS resolver's automatic updating of OS configuration file data (/etc/resolv.conf) now uses the 'domain' keyword as default search domain if there is no 'search' keyword.

Fix three minor typos and reorder one of a pair of lists of functions so that the ordering is consistent.
2010-02-09OTP-8427 Removed spurious options to the emulator from escript.Håkan Mattsson
2010-02-09inet:gethostbyname improved to parse IP strings and look up own hostnameRaimo Niskanen
Now inet:gethostbyname tries to parse the hostname as an IP string first if the 'native' lookup method is not used. One can also make the IP string parsing explicit using the new 'string' lookup method, or avoid it using the new pseudo lookup method 'nostring'. In R13B04 a bug was introduced when the gethostbyname code was rewritten, so if the native resolver was used and misconfigured to not be able to look up the own hostname, inet:gethostbyname also failed. This is now fixed.

2010-02-08Add runtime option to enable/disable lcnt statsBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Add erts_debug:lock_counters({copy_save, bool()}). This option enables or disables statistics saving for destroyed processes and ets-tables. Enabling this might consume a lot of memory. Add id-numbering for lock classes which is otherwise undefined.

2010-02-06Fix hipe memory allocation problems on darwin/amd64Geoff Cant
HiPE on amd64 needs to be able to allocate memory in the 0x20000000+ range so that compiled code will be addressable with 32bit pointers (when sign extended). By default, when building 64bit executables on OS X, PAGEZERO occupies the first 4GB of virtual memory. The PAGEZERO segment cannot be mmap(ed) or vm_allocate(d) into. To avoid this problem we use the -pagezero_size linker flag to reduce the size of PAGEZERO and free up the 0x20000000+ space.
2010-02-06Porting x86 darwin fixes to amd64 darwin hipe asm/m4 codeGeoff Cant
Compared to GNU as, Mac OS X's assembler uses different directives for text and global sections, and omits type and size directives entirely. We also need to mangle symbol names in order to allow linking with C object files.
