Allow Erlang code to use sendfile() where available by wrapping it as
file:sendfile/4 and file:sendfile/2.
sendfile(2) - Linux man page:
"sendfile() copies data between one file descriptor and another.
Because this copying is done within the kernel, sendfile() is more
efficient than the combination of read(2) and write(2), which would
require transferring data to and from user space."

On my Linux computer, building the entire Erlang/OTP system
with hipe disabled took about 8 minutes. With hipe enabled,
but without any native code, the build took about 23 minutes,
i.e. more than 3 times slower. (The computer has 4 cores, and
I used 'make -j6'.)
On my eight-core Mac (running 'make -j10') there was only a slight
slowdown when hipe was enabled.
The culprit is hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load/1, which will be
called every time a module is loaded (even if the module contains no
native code). If post_beam_load/1 is called in a hipe-enabled
emulator, it will block multi-scheduling, even if no work needs to be
done. Apparently the cost for blocking multi-scheduling can vary
greatly, depending on the operating system and system load.
As a quick and conservative fix, don't call post_beam_load/1 unless
some native code has been previously loaded.

The appup files for kernel, stdlib and sasl did not contain any
UpFromVsn and DownToVsn. This means that it was not possible to create
a relup file with systool:make_relup if any of these applications had
changed.
This commit adds entries in the appup files for a maximum of two major
releases back - all with only one upgrade instruction:
restart_new_emulator. The point is to allow relups to be generated,
but ensure that no soft upgrade is done for these three applications -
i.e. they will always cause a restart of the emulator prior to all
other upgrade instructions from other applications.
Test cases (appup_test) are added to kernel_SUITE, stdlib_SUITE and
sasl_SUITE. These all check that expected versions are matched in the
appups, and illegal versions (older than two major releases, or in any
other way illegal) do not match. The test is written in a general way
where it is assumed that the version of these applications are stepped
according the the rule that major releases step the second number,
maintenance releases step the third number and patches step the fourth
number.

* siri/kernel/application-shutdown-timeout/OTP-9540:
Add documentation and test for kernel env var shutdown_timeout
Add env var shutdown_timeout to kernel to avoid deadlock on node shutdown
|
|
On some platforms (FreeBSD) the #sctp_assoc_change{state=comm_up}
event arriving during gen_sctp:connect/4,5 contains ancillary
data #sctp_sndrcvinfo{}. That was not expected by the code.

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.

Calls to global:whereis_name/1 have been substituted for calls to
global:safe_whereis_name/1 since the latter is not safe at all.
The reason for not doing this earlier is that setting a global lock
masked out a bug concerning the restart of supervised children. The
bug has now been fixed by a modification of global:whereis_name/1.
(Thanks to Ulf Wiger for code contribution.)

disk_log:reopen/2,3 and disk_log:breopen/3 could return
the error reason from file:rename/2 rather than the reason
{file_error, Filename, Reason}.
The message {disk_log, Node, {error, disk_log_stopped}} which
according the documentation is sent upon failure to truncate or reopen
a disk log was sometimes turned into a reply.

Running Dialyzer on the test suites revealed a few type errors.
|
|
The type is marked as a binary() or a string() but in practice it can
be an iodata(). The test suite was updated to confirm the gen_tcp/2
and gen_udp:send/4 functions accept iodata() (iolists) packets.

In the location information tables in the run-time system, source
filenames that are the same as the module name plus ".erl" extension
are not stored explicitly, thus saving memory.
To take advantage of that optimization, avoid complicating the names of
files in the current working directory; specifically, make sure that
"./" is not prepended to the name.

This commit is a preparation for introducing location information
(filename/line number) in stacktraces in exceptions. Currently
a stack trace looks like:
[{Mod1,Function1,Arity1},
.
.
.
{ModN,FunctionN,ArityN}]
Add a forth element to each tuple that can be used indication
the filename and line number of the source file:
[{Mod1,Function1,Arity1,Location1},
.
.
.
{ModN,FunctionN,ArityN,LocationN}]
In this commit, the fourth element will just be an empty list,
and we will change all code that look at or manipulate stacktraces.

An incorrect spec, rpc:yield/1, has been fixed.

|
|
|
Two opaque types that could cause warnings when running Dialyzer have
been modified.
