epmd: allow alternative to dns resolving for nodename
2018-05-16epmd: allow alternative to dns resolving for nodenameTimmo Verlaan
This makes it possible to create a custom integration with a key-value store for example. The key would then point to the actual address. You would have to write your own epmd module to make use of that feature.

The timestamp code in heart uses monotonic time so it is immune to NTP changes.

In order to get line numbers into the ghlink we have to add a post processing step for all xml files.

2018-02-26Allow opening device files and FIFOs with file:open/2John Högberg
To the best of our knowledge this was introduced since file operations on device files/FIFO:s could hang the emulator forever back when the emulator was single-threaded and lacked IO threads; a read operation could block all progress preventing the write operation it waited for from occurring. Granted, this could still happen through starving all dirty IO schedulers, but the same issue can arise with NFS files which we've always allowed. Removing this restriction also lets us remove a stat(2) call that was added to specifically allow `/dev/null`.

2018-02-02Reword docs related to the runtime system modeXavier Noria
The existing wording may be interpreted as saying that embedded mode eager loads all modules. This revision makes clear embedded mode only disables module auto loading. Since I was on it, I have reordered a couple of places to describe interactive first, and then embedded. It feels natural to cover first the default and positive mode (auto loads), and then its negation.

2018-01-05stdlib: Let filelib:find_source() search subdirsHans Bolinder
The Design Principles states that an application can have Erlang source files one level below the "src" directory, and now filelib:find_source() by default searches one level below "src". The same applies to "esrc". That directory is only mentioned in filename(3).
2018-01-03Disallow NULs in filename-encoded stringsJohn Högberg
Previously we accepted trailing NULs, which was backwards compatible as such usage never resulted in misbehavior in the first place. The downside is that it prevented erts_native_filename_need from returning an accurate number of *actual characters*, needlessly complicating encoding-agnostic code like erts_osenv.

The option no longer does anything; systems that lack support for non-blocking sendfile(2) will use the Erlang fallback.
2017-11-30Update file performance adviceJohn Högberg
The parts relating to drivers/ports are now obsolete, and the provided example was far noisier than it had to be; the only relevant metric is the number of calls and it's up to the user to decide how those will be reduced. One could argue for its complete removal, but I'm inclined to leave it be.
