2016-01-12Assign externally open fd to gen_tcp (UDS support)Serge Aleynikov
When a AF_LOCAL file descriptor is created externally (e.g. Unix Domain Socket) and passed to `gen_tcp:listen(0, [{fd, FD}])`, the implementation incorrectly assigned the address family to be equal to `inet`, which in the inet_drv driver translated to AF_INET instead of AF_LOCAL (or AF_UNIX), and an `einval` error code was returned. This patch fixes this problem such that the file descriptors of the `local` address family are supported in the inet:fdopen/5, gen_tcp:connect/3, gen_tcp:listen/2, gen_udp:open/2 calls

2013-09-23add {active,N} socket option for TCP, UDP, and SCTPSteve Vinoski
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.

Add case to handle the situation when someone call {gen_tcp,gen_udp}:controlling_process(Port, self()). Also improve spec and doc from gen_udp and gen_sctp for controlling_process/2. To reproduce the issue, open an UDP port: 4> {ok,Port} = gen_udp:open(9000, [binary]). {ok,#Port<0.587>} 5> gen_udp:controlling_process(Port, self()). ok Simulate error: 6> 1=2. ** exception error: no match of right hand side value 2 Here is the leak: 7> inet:i().
