2015-05-07code: Make load_native_code_for_all_loaded/0 comply to specBjörn Gustavsson
7309ff4c38325 introduced a mismatch between load_native_code_for_all_loaded/0 and its spec. We could just delete spec, but it is cleaner to ensure that the function always returns 'ok'. Noticed-by: Tuncer Ayaz

* bjorn/kernel/code-loading: kernel application: Start code server first code: Reduce overhead of native code checking for loaded modules
2015-05-06kernel application: Start code server firstBjörn Gustavsson
When the code server has started, it will read the .beam files for all loaded modules to see whether they contain native code that should be loaded. To make that as fast as possible when we have no native code, start the code server as early as possible to minimize the number .beam files that must be read from disk. The code server does not use the 'file' module, so it is OK to start the code server before starting the file_server process. On my computer, the time for checking the loaded modules for native code is reduced from roughly 2 ms to 1.5 ms.
2015-05-06code: Reduce overhead of native code checking for loaded modulesBjörn Gustavsson
When the code server has been started, the function load_native_code_for_all_loaded/0 will check whether the .beam files for all loaded modules contain any native code. If there is native code, it will be loaded. If there is no native code, on my computer the check will take about 10 ms. That time can be reduced to about 2 ms if we replace the call to code beam_lib:chunks/2 with a call to prim_file:read_file/1 to read the file and a call to code:get_chunk/2 to check whether the chunk for native code is present. Furthermore, the entire check can be spawned off to a separate process and done in parallel with OTP starting up.

2015-04-22Fix shell crash when in switch command modeJonas Falkevik
The user_drv process can crash if ctrl-y is pressed when in switch command mode (ctrl-g). This is due to switch mode using edlin to parse the input. And edlin uses the process dictionary to store the kill_buffer. However the kill_buffer is undefined if not initialized by edlin:init/0 which makes the user_drv process crash since edlin is calling list:reverse/2 with undefined. Fix calles edlin:init/0 once before server_loop is entered.

2015-03-20Replace usage of erlang:now() with usage of new APIRickard Green
2015-03-20Introduce a new time APIRickard Green
The old time API is based on erlang:now/0. The major issue with erlang:now/0 is that it was intended to be used for so many unrelated things. This tied these unrelated operations together and unnecessarily caused performance, scalability as well as accuracy, and precision issues for operations that do not need to have such issues. The new API spreads different functionality over multiple functions in order to improve on this. The new API consists of a number of new BIFs: - erlang:convert_time_unit/3 - erlang:monotonic_time/0 - erlang:monotonic_time/1 - erlang:system_time/0 - erlang:system_time/1 - erlang:time_offset/0 - erlang:time_offset/1 - erlang:timestamp/0 - erlang:unique_integer/0 - erlang:unique_integer/1 - os:system_time/0 - os:system_time/1 and a number of extensions of existing BIFs: - erlang:monitor(time_offset, clock_service) - erlang:system_flag(time_offset, finalize) - erlang:system_info(os_monotonic_time_source) - erlang:system_info(time_offset) - erlang:system_info(time_warp_mode) - erlang:system_info(time_correction) - erlang:system_info(start_time) See the "Time and Time Correction in Erlang" chapter of the ERTS User's Guide for more information.

2015-03-10kernel: Fix file:read_line/1 unicode error handlingDan Gudmundsson
When a file was opened with some unicode encoding, file:read_line/1 could return unicode codepoints > 255 in list mode and wrong error message in bin mode. Chose to break out 'get_line' functionality from get_chars/5 since 'get_until' handling is different (comes from io module which should return unicode lists) and seems to have its own (doc?) problems.

2014-10-16Fix io:columns/0 timeout when invoked via userJosé Valim
This patch fixes an issue where io:columns/0 times out when invoked from any application callback (or any supervisor/supervised module since the group leader is inherited). To reproduce the issue, one must simply call io:columns() from any application callback. You will notice the process will block for 2 seconds which then times out and returns {:error, :enotsup}. Note this bug only happens inside the erlang shell (using -noshell or escripts do not trigger the bug). To fix the bug, it is important to understand how io requests flow from application callback processes. Here are the steps followed: 1. Since io:columns/1 is timing out, the first step is to find out who is the group leader for the application callback process. Using process_info/1, we can see the parent process is the application_master and handles io_requests by delegating them to the group_leader. 2. By inspecting the application_master process, we can find the group_leader the message is sent is the registered process named user. The process is running the group module which does handle io:columns/1 requests delegating them to user_drv process. 3. The user_drv process does handle tty_geometry requests, except that a clause above ends up short-circuiting all tty_geometry requests from the user process. This patch moves the user clause below the specific driver messages. OTP-12241
2014-10-16kernel,ssh: Add synchronous user_drv protocolLukas Larsson
Added a put_chars_sync to the protocol that can be used to talk to user_drv and made group use it. This is needed in order to guarantee that bytes has been pushed to the tty port when doing something like this: io:format("halting\n"),erlang:halt(0). Before this change the halting message could be lost in the message queue of the user_drv process, this is no longer possible. This commit also fixes ssh_cli as that plugs itself in as a user_drv process. OTP-12240
