2011-11-15Add env var shutdown_timeout to kernel to avoid deadlock on node shutdownSiri Hansen
When a node is shutting down, application_controller will do exit(Pid,shutdown) on all application masters, and wait for {'EXIT',Pid,_}. If, for some reason, the application master does not terminate then application_controller will hang forever waiting for this 'EXIT' message. To overcome this problem, a configurable timer is added to kernel - the enviroment variable 'shutdown_timeout'. If this variable is set to a positive integer T, application_controller will do exit(Pid,kill) after T milli seconds if no 'EXIT' message is received.
