Also fixed a bunch of "end-years" (was 2010 but should have been 2011,
which the commit hook not happy with).

* Assure store_cookies (and verify_cookies) is documented instead of the
nonexistent store_cookie and verify_cookie.
* Make sure the cookies option is not called cookie in comments.
* Sprinkle <c>...</c> arround symbols and code snippets in text.
* Grammar, wording, and punctuation fixes.
* Formalize See gen_tcp:connect/3,4 using <seealso>.

* ks/file_open-mode:
Add the {encoding, _} options to file:open/2's modes
|
|
|
|
|
|
Although the {encoding, encoding()} set of options is documented in
the manual page of the 'file' module, they do not appear in the Mode
description on that page nor in the mode() type declaration.
The patch adds this information in both the code of the module and
the documentation of the module.
To avoid duplication, the declaration of the encoding() type is added
to the 'unicode' module where it most probably belongs.
While at it, added a proper declaration for posix(), took out the
now superfluous information about the types of file:open/2 from the
erl_bif_types module, and corrected the return type of file:open/2
so that it corresponds to the published documentation.

When the HTTP packet mode has been enabled for a socket,
the ssl and gen_tcp modules have different error indications
when there is an error while parsing the HTTP header:
ssl:recv(SSLSocket, 0) -> {ok, {http_error, _Str}}
gen_tcp:recv(Socket, 0) -> {error, {http_error, _Str}}
We have decided to change gen_tcp:recv/2 to behave the same
way as ssl:recv/2. That means that there will be always be
an ok tuple if data could be succefully read from the socket,
and an error tuple if there was a read error at the socket level.

Add an option that atomically tests for the existence of a file and
creates it if the file does not exist, by passing the O_EXCL flag
to open() on Unix and CREATE_NEW flag on Windows. Support for O_EXCL
varies across platforms and filesystems.
{ok, Fd} = file:open("/tmp/foo", [write,exclusive]),
{error, eexist} = file:open("/tmp/foo", [write,exclusive]).

Useful for informing the Operating System about the access pattern
for a file's data, so that it can adapt the caching strategy to
maximize disk IO performance.
|

file:datasync/1 invokes the POSIX system call "int fdatasync(int fd)".
This system call is similar to "fsync" but, unlike fsync, it does not
update the metadata associated with the file (like the access time for
example). It's used by many DBMSs (MySQL and SQLite of example) to
increase disk IO performance, as it avoids disk seeks and disk write
operations compared to fsync.
More details on it at:
http://linux.die.net/man/2/fdatasync
An example, from the MySQL source:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mysql/mysql-server/mysql-5.1-telco-6.1/annotate/head%3A/mysys/my_sync.c#L61
This new function just calls fsync on systems not implementing fdatasync.

* ml/documentation_apostrophe_fix:
Correct grammatical problems in conjunction with 'its'

OTP-8523 ml/documentation_apostrophe_fix
|

The documentation (*.xml) in the otp tree has a common grammatical
problem, "it's" and "its" are often interchanged. That is annoying
for some readers.
This commit consists entirely of "it's" -> "its" changes. I went
through every .xml file in the tree. If there are any remaining
bugs of this type, it's because I missed them, not because I
didn't look.

A race condition in os:cmd/1 could cause the caller to get stuck in
os:cmd/1 forever.

* sc/sctp-connect-nowait:
Implement a non-blocking SCTP connect
OTP-8414 There are new gen_sctp:connect_init/* functions that initiate an
SCTP connection without blocking for the result. The result is
delivered asynchronously as an sctp_assoc_change event. (Thanks
to Simon Cornish.)
|
|
This patch adds a new set of functions - gen_sctp:connect_init/* that initiate
an SCTP connection without blocking for the result. The result is delivered
asynchronously as an sctp_assoc_change event.
The new functions have the same API as documented for gen_sctp:connect/* with
the following exceptions:
* Timeout is only used to supervise resolving Addr (the peer address)
* The possible return values are ok | {error, posix()}
The caller application is responsible for receiving the #sctp_assoc_change{}
event and correctly determining the connect it originated from (for example,
by examining the remote host and/or port). The application should have at
least {active, once} or use gen_sctp:recv to retrieve the connect result.
The implementation of gen_sctp:connect suffers from a number of
shortcomings which the user may avoid by using gen_sctp:connect_init and
adding code to receive the connect result.
First, irrespective of the Timeout value given to gen_sctp:connect, the OS
attempts and retries the SCTP INIT according to various kernel parameters. If
the Timeout value is shorter than the entire attempt then the application will
still receive an sctp_assoc_change event after the {error, timeout} is
returned from the initial call. This could be somewhat confusing (either to
the application or the designer!) especially if the status is
comm_up. Subsequent calls to connect before the OS has finished this process
return {error, ealready} which may also be counter-intuitive.
Second, there is a race-condition (documented in comments in inet_sctp.erl)
that can cause the wrong sctp_assoc_change record to be returned to an
application calling gen_sctp:connect. The race seriously affects connection
attempts when using one-to-many sockets.

In the transition from SGML to XML (several releases ago),
bugs were introduced in the documentation, for instance
"\n" replaced by newlines. Correct those bugs.
Also correct double backslashes. They seem to have been introduced very
early in the development of OTP. According to Lars they "solved" a bug
in the generation of HTML &c. Now that standard tools are used instead
of docbuilder, the bug has become visible.
