2017-01-11dialyzer: Use maps instead of dict for module contracts mapHans Bolinder
2017-01-11dialyzer: Compress a few more ETS tablesHans Bolinder
2017-01-11dialyzer: Optimize memory consumptionHans Bolinder
Some SCC info is no longer cached. It reduces the peak memory consumption of workers during the typesig phase, and seems to cost very little time.
2017-01-11dialyzer: Reduce memory consumption during 'remote' phaseHans Bolinder
The cache used for speeding up the translation from forms to types is no longer global, but reset per module. The peak memory consumption is reduced, and the added time seems to be small.
2017-01-11dialyzer: Update code for finding parallelismHans Bolinder
Using erlang:system_info(schedulers_online) for determining parallelism is recommended by OTP experts. It takes care of "+S 4:1" and simultaneous loading of HiPE code.
2017-01-11dialyzer: Reduce ETS usage during the typesig phaseHans Bolinder
The condensed graph of SCCs occupies less ETS memory. A table translating to and from SCC to a unique integer is introduced.
2017-01-11dialyzer: Optimize graph condensationHans Bolinder
By not using ETS when calculating the condensation of graphs, peak heap memory consumption is reduced.
2017-01-11dialyzer: Do not send full PLTs as messagesHans Bolinder
The mini PLT is extended to hold all data of the full PLT, and the full PLT is restored when needed (for storing the PLT on file).

2016-11-22dialyzer: Improve a warning messageHans Bolinder
Messages regarding guards with orelse/andalso could look like "Clause guard cannot succeed. The variable A was matched against the type any()". Now they look like as if or/and is used: "Guard test is_integer(A::atom()) can never succeed".
2016-11-22dialyzer: Improve a warning messageHans Bolinder
Messages like "Invalid type specification for function para3:exp_adt/0. The success typing is () -> 3" now look like "The specification for para3:exp_adt/0 has an opaque subtype para3_adt:exp1(para3_adt:exp2()) which is violated by the success typing () -> 3". The old message did not give any clue as to what invalidated the contract, namely the opaque subtype.
2016-11-22dialyzer: Correct a warnings messageHans Bolinder
Messages like "The attempt to match a term of type rec_api:f() against the variable _ breaks the opaqueness of rec_adt:f()" now look like "The attempt to match a term of type rec_adt:f() against the record field 'f' with type rec_api:f() breaks the opaqueness of the term".

* maint: dialyzer: Fix error handling of bad -dialyzer() attributes
2016-10-21dialyzer: Fix error handling of bad -dialyzer() attributesHans Bolinder
If a dialyzer module attribute references an undefined (local) function an error tuple is thrown but no caught. This leads to a 'nocatch' error and not the intended "clean" error.
2016-09-26Use @ in variable names generated by core and kernelJosé Valim
The previous variable names can be generated by projects like LFE and Elixir, leading to possible conflicts. Our first to choice to solve such conflicts was to use $ but that's not a valid variable name in core. Therefore we picked @ which is currently supported and still reduces the chance of conflicts.
2016-08-31dialyzer: Remove a check that always failsHans Bolinder
2016-07-26Improve format_warning/1 specBrujo Benavides
Let it handle `dial_warning()` input as well, to match what `format_warning/2` expects.
2016-07-04dialyzer: Suppress warns on generated case stmtsMagnus Lång
Warnings about clauses that cannot match and are also compiler generated are suppressed unless none of the clauses return. This feature is useful for non-Erlang BEAM languages (such as Elixir) that compile to Erlang and expand certain language constructs into case statements. In that case, as long as the language construct can succeed, these warnings are undesired and appear spurious to users that do not check the Erlang code that their program expands into. Thanks to José Valim for the test (slightly modified).

* stavros/dialyzer/fix_call_site_analysis/OTP-13655/PR-1092: Fix a bug in Dialyzer related to call-site analysis
2016-06-08Fix a bug in Dialyzer related to call-site analysisStavros Aronis
Dialyzer's "dataflow" module is using information from the callgraph to determine which functions may be called at a particular call-site. Unfortunately this information can include functions that are certainly not among the possible choices. We don't want to emit warnings in such cases, so a "reasonable" compromise is to stay silent if there are many possible funs and at least one of them can succeed. Bug reported by Dan Gudmundsson, test shrunk down by Magnus Lång.
2016-06-08Dialyzer: Fix a bug that caused Dialyzer to go into an infinite loop.Hans Bolinder
Dialyzer failed to remove all loops among constraints.

2016-05-13Fix dependency calculation when encountering an erroneous 'apply'Kostis Sagonas
Dialyzer's dependency calculation was throwing an error when encountering an 'apply' node with something that was not a variable (e.g., a literal). The rest of the code did not know what to do with this error, which resulted in dialyzer crashing. Fix this by ingoring the detected error in the dependency calculation phase; later dialyzer passes know how to properly handle and report this kind of errors anyway. This fixes [Erlang-JIRA] (ERL-138).
2016-05-04Declare the erl_types:var_table() type as opaqueKostis Sagonas
and do the following changes: in erl_types: export the type and an appropriate constructor for it in dialyzer_contracts: perform all necessary code modifications to fix all dialyzer warnings Although no warnings are reported by dialyzer, it's quite possible that these are not the only places where the opacity of the var_table() data structure is violated. But I decided to leave these places for a better version of dialyzer to discover...

2016-04-28dialyzer_typesig: Fix bad external typeMagnus Lång
28a4a5057ab9 mistakenly used the non-existing type cerl:tree() instead of cerl:cerl().
2016-04-28dialyzer: Fix another pattern literal bugMagnus Lång
dialyzer_typesig:traverse/3 would perform an unsafe optimisation when given a cons pattern that contained a map and could be folded into a literal with cerl:fold_literal/1. In this case, when traversing the map a type variable would be generated, but this variable would be dropped by the erl_types:t_cons/2 constructor by in turn calling t_sup(), producing the overapproximation any(). However, in this particular case, dialyzer_typesig:traverse/3 is not allowed to overapproximate, since its result is used in an EQ-constraint. Although erl_types:t_tuple/1 does not overapproximate like t_cons/2, which makes the bug unlikely to affect tuples too, the fix was nevertheless applied defensively to the case of tuples as well. Also, fix a bug where dialyzer_utils:refold_pattern/1 would generate syntax nodes with two {label, _} attributes.
2016-04-28dialyzer: Improve map pattern typesettingMagnus Lång
2016-04-28dialyzer_contracts: Consider #{} a violationMagnus Lång
This is analogous to the case of nil. Since #{} is a base-case of almost all map types, contract and success typing sharing #{} does not mean much, and is often sign of a violation.
2016-04-28dialyzer_typesig: Fix simplification bugMagnus Lång
mk_constraint_list/2 was simplifying (C OR TriviallyTrue) to (C), which is obviously wrong.
2016-04-28dialyzer_dataflow: Fix try in guardsMagnus Lång
The assumption that 'try' nodes were only used to wrap entire guards is no longer true. We're still swallowing warnings when the handler returns successfully. Unfortunately, bind_guard/5 would need to be refactored to return a new state in order to generate those warnings.
2016-04-28dialyzer: Unfold cerl patterns containing mapsMagnus Lång
Dialyzer relies heavily on the assumption that the type of a literal that is used as a pattern is the type of any value that can match that pattern. For maps, that is not true, and it was causing bad analysis results. A new help function dialyzer_utils:refold_pattern/1 identifies maps in literal patterns, and unfolds and labels them, allowing them to be properly analysed.
