OTP-15663 This option indicates how often the handler shall check if the log file still exists and if the inode is changed.
2019-03-08[logger] Add log file rotation by options to logger_std_hSiri Hansen
OTP-15479 OTP-15662 New configuration map for logger_std_h: #{type => file, file => file:filename(), modes => [file:mode()], max_no_bytes => pos_integer() | infinity, max_no_files => non_neg_integer(), compress_on_rotate => boolean()} For backwards compatibility, the old variant for specifying the file name via the 'type' parameter is still supported, i.e. {file,FileName} and {file,FileName,Modes}, but it is no longer documented. Rotation scheme: The current log file always has the same name, and the archived files get extensions ".0", ".1", ... The newest archive has extension ".0", and the oldest archive has the highest number. If 'compress_on_rotate' is set to true, the archived files are gzipped and get the additional extension ".gz", e.g. error.log.0.gz. Rotation is turned off by setting 'max_no_bytes' to infinity. Setting 'max_no_files' to 0 does not turn off rotation, but only specifies that no archives are to be saved.

2019-03-06[logger] Add better control of file modes in logger_std_hSiri Hansen
OTP-15602 It is allowed to set file modes for the handler to use when opening its log file. The given modes were earlier accepted without any checks, which could make the handler behave unexpectedly. This commit makes sure that * if none of write, append or exclusive is given, then append is added * if raw is not given, it is added * if delayed_write or {delayed_write,_,_} is not given, then delayed_write is added

2019-03-01Add application:set_env/1 and application:set_env/2José Valim
It is equivalent to calling application:set_env/4 on each application individually, except it is more efficient. When given duplicate apps or duplicate keys, set_env/1 and set_env/2 will warn. The warning will also be emitted during boot: $ erl -config dupkeys.config -s erlang halt 2019-02-27 11:16:02.653100 application: kernel; duplicate parameter: key1 =WARNING REPORT==== 27-Feb-2019::11:16:02.653100 === application: kernel; duplicate parameter: key1 $ erl -config dupapps.config -s erlang halt 2019-02-27 11:16:02.653100 duplicate application config: kernel =WARNING REPORT==== 27-Feb-2019::11:16:02.653100 === duplicate application config: kernel Prior to this patch, the behaviour was unspecified, and duplicate keys and duplicate apps would behave different depending on the amount of config, the name of the config files, and how those configs would be listed. The goal is to raise an error in the future.

RaimoNiskanen/raimo/getifaddrs-netns/ERIERL-189/OTP-15121 Implement {netns,NS} option for inet:getifaddrs/1 and friends
2018-10-11Add nopush TCP socket optionIgor Slepchin
This translates to TCP_CORK on Linux and TCP_NOPUSH on BSD. In effect, this acts as super-Nagle: no partial TCP segments are sent out until this option is turned off. Once turned off, all accumulated unsent data is sent out immediately. The latter is *not* the case on OSX, hence the implementation ignores "nopush" on OSX to reduce confusion.
2018-10-03[logger] Add handler callback filter_config/1Siri Hansen
This function is called when a logger API function for fetching handler configuration is called. The point is to allow the handler to remove internal data fields that it might have stored in the configuration database, before returning the handler configuration to the caller. An example of such internal data are the 'handler_pid' and 'mode_tab' fields that logger_std_h and logger_disk_log_h store in their configuration maps.
2018-10-03[logger] Start using handler callback changing_config/3 in built-in handlersSiri Hansen
The new parameter to this function, SetOrUpdate, indicates how unspecified configuration data fields shall be set. The rule is that if SetOrUpdate equals set, then default values shall be used, and if SetOrUpdate equals update, then existing configuration values shall be used. Consequently, these examples now apply to logger_std_h and logger_disk_log_h: set_handler_config(default, config, #{sync_mode_qlen => 20}) sets the value of sync_mode_qlen to 20, and resets all other (writable) fields in the config map to their default values. update_handler_config(default, config, #{sync_mode_qlen => 20}) sets the value of sync_mode_qlen to 20, and leaves all other fields in the config map unchanged.
2018-10-03[logger] Add update_handler_config/3Siri Hansen
This function is similar to set_handler_config/3, but calls the handler callback changing_config/3 with the first parameter SetOrUpdate=update.
2018-10-02Implement {netns,NS} option for inet:getifaddrs/1Raimo Niskanen
Also implement the same option for the legacy undocumented functions inet:getif/1,getiflist/1,ifget/2,ifset/2. The arity 1 functions had before this change got signatures that took a socket port that was used to do the needed syscall, so now the signature was extended to also take an option list with the only supported option {netns,Namespace}. The Socket argument variant remains unsupported. For inet:getifaddrs/1 the documentation file was changed to old style function name definition so be able to hide the Socket argument variant that is visible in the type spec. The arity 2 functions had got an option list as second argument. This list had to be partitioned into one list for the namespace option(s) and the other for the rest. The namespace option list was then fed to the already existing namespace support for socket opening, which places the socket in a namespace and hence made all these functions that in inet_drv.c used getsockopt() work without change. The functions that used getifaddrs() in inet_drv.c had to be changed in inet_drv.c to swap namespaces around the getifaddrs() syscall. This functionality was separated into a new function call_getifaddrs().

2018-09-20[logger] Add SetOrUpdate parameter to handler callback changing_configSiri Hansen
Since logger has now knowledge of the handler specific data ('config' field in the handler configuration map), it can not merge this data structure with default or old values upon configuration change. Instead, the handler callback changing_config must do this. Earlier, this callback did not reflect if the configuration change was initiated by a call to set_handler_config or update_handler_config, so the handler did not know if unspecified fields should get default values or the values from the existing configuration. To overcome this problem, the new parameter SetOrUpdate is added to this callback. If SetOrUpdate equals set, then default values should be used. If SetOrUpdate equals update, then existing configuration values should be used.

2018-09-12[logger] Include single_line option to report_cbSiri Hansen
If the report callback function has two arguments, the second argument is a map with options to limit the size of the log event. To even allow a better formatting when the event shall be printed on a single line, the new option single_line is now included in this argument.

2018-09-12[logger] Update doc about file options in logger_std_hSiri Hansen
2018-09-12[logger] Remove encoding option from logger_formatterSiri Hansen
The encoding option was introduced in commit 270d909696a753af022df72a404c73f2895b4a02, to allow report callbacks to format according to a given encoding. There was, however, no connection between this encoding option, and the encoding of the device to which the logger handler was writing. Since a formatter is defined to return unicode:chardata(), and in order to avoid mismatch with the encoding of the device, the encoding option is now removed from the formatter. The handler itself must make sure that it does not write illegal data to its device.
