2016-02-25code: Add functions that can load multiple modulesBjörn Gustavsson
Add functions to 'code' to allow loading of multiple modules at once. code:atomic_load(Modules) will load all modules at once, or fail having loaded none of them. Since we cannot guarantee the atomicity if there are modules with -on_load functions, the list of modules must not contain any modules with an -on_load function. Also, to make it possible to put an application into an inactive state for as short time as possible, also add code:prepare_loading/1 and code:finish_loading/1. They are used like this: {ok,Prepared} = code:prepare_loading(Modules) . . . ok = code:finish_loading(Prepared) code:ensure_modules_loaded/1 is useful as a pure optimization to ensure that modules that will be needed soon have indeed been loaded. It will not reload modules that have already been loaded and it *will* accept modules that have an on_load function. Therefore, it does not make sense to give any atomicity guarantees. I did consider overloading the existing code:ensure_loaded/1 function, but rejected it because the return value is very different. Having different forms of return values depending on the types of arguments is confusing.
2016-02-25Refactor post_beam_load handlingBjörn Gustavsson
After loading a module without native code, it is still necessary to call hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load() to ensure that any native calls to the module is done to the newly loaded module (and not to a previous version of the module in native code). Unfortunately, hipe_unified_loader:post_beam_load() can be slow and most of the time it doesn't do anything because no previous native code was loaded. Therefore, ad2962278f added a kludge using the process dictionary to avoid calling post_beam_load() if no native code at all has been loaded. Remove the kludge by keeping track exactly of which modules that have native code in the existing ets table. Also generalize post_beam_load() to handle severals modules at once, since we will soon need that functionality.
2016-02-25Simplify and robustify code_server:all_loaded/1Björn Gustavsson
The main ets table kept by code_server contains several pieces of information. Therefore, code_server:all_loaded/1 need to filter the information in the table. code_server:all_loaded/1 can be simplified if we use ets:select/2. Currently, the filtering is done by filtering away unwanted stuff ({sticky_dir,Mod} tuples). It is more robust to filter on the stuff that we want to keep ({Mod,Path} tuples, where Mod is an atom) in case that we'll add more auxiliary records to the table later.

2016-02-16kernel: Add basic system check of schedulers on heartbeatBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
Before a heartbeat to the port program a responsiveness check of the schedulers is performed. If the responsiveness check fails, stalls, the heartbeat will not be performed (as intended).

* heart:set_callback/2 * heart:get_callback/0 * heart:clear_callback/0 The callback is called before every heartbeat to the heart port. The callback needs to return 'ok' if the validation is correct.
2016-02-15kernel: Refactor heart codeBjörn-Egil Dahlberg
2016-02-15Prettify default error_logger output somewhatMagnus Henoch
The default error logger, the one in use before a more sophisticated error logger can be installed, has rather terse output, in part because it cannot rely on io:format. This patch attempts to improve the error logger within that constraint: - Print timestamps as YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS - For error reports with format strings, just print the format string and the format arguments on separate lines - For error reports with tuple lists, print each pair on a separate line
2016-02-10epmd: support IPv6 node registrationMichael Santos
Allow IPv6 nodes to register with and query epmd. On systems with IPv6 support: * epmd listens on both the IPv4 and IPv6 ANY or loopback sockets * the epmd cli client connects to epmd over the IPv6 loopback * distributed nodes started with "-proto_dist inet6_tcp" will register with epmd over IPv6 To work on IPv6 capable systems that have IPv6 support disabled, epmd ignores errors opening the socket if the protocol is not supported. Similarly, the epmd client will fall back to IPv4 if the IPv6 socket is not available. Update the minimum supported version of Windows to Windows Vista to support IPv6.
2016-02-04Export gen_tcp:socket() typeBernard Duggan
When handling a gen_tcp socket, it's handy to be able to give it its proper type and have dialyzer be able to validate it, rather than falling back on using port(). The gen_udp equivalent is already exported.
2016-02-02erts, kernel: Add os:perf_counter functionLukas Larsson
The perf_counter is a very very cheap and high resolution timer that can be used to timestamp system events. It does not have monoticity guarantees, but should on most OS's expose a monotonous time. A special instruction has been created for this counter to further speed up fetching it. OTP-12908

* maint: Update documentation for code-loading functions code: Correct the types for error returns Eliminate run-time system crash in code:load_abs/1
2016-01-28code: Correct the types for error returnsBjörn Gustavsson
The specifications for functions that load code in the 'code' module (e.g. code:load_file/1) have some problems: * The specs claim that the functions can return {error,on_load}, but they never do. However, they can return {error,on_load_failure} if the -on_load function in a module fails. * The specs claim that the functions can return {error,native_code}, but they never do. While we are it, also extend the on_load_errors/1 test case to test that the load functions return {error,on_load_failure} when an -on_load function fails.
2016-01-27code_server: Add types to the state recordBjörn Gustavsson
2016-01-27code_server: Don't export internal system_* functionsBjörn Gustavsson
There is no reason to export system_continue/3 and system_terminate/4 from code_server. Servers that use proc_lib and 'sys' to handle system message do need those functions exported, but code_server contains a modified copy of the system message handling code from 'sys', and that code only make local calls to system_continue/3 and system_terminate/4.
2016-01-27Simplify starting of code serverBjörn Gustavsson
There is unnecessary knowledge about the -nostick option in the 'kernel' module. -nostick can be handled entirely in the 'code' module. There is no need to have both code:start_link/0 and code:start_link/1. code:start_link/0 is sufficient. Also get rid of error handling for things that cannot happen: The 'init' module has made sure that init:get_argument(root) can't fail, so there is no need for any error-reporting code. (See e1dc0aa4.) We also don't need to test the return value from code_server:start_link/1, because it will always return {ok,Pid} (or crash).
2016-01-27Remove first argument of code_server:call()Björn Gustavsson
Remove the first argument for code_server:call(). It makes no sense. The only caller is 'code'. Note that the code_server module is undocumented and that code_server:call() is an internal helper function.
2016-01-25Eliminate run-time system crash in code:load_abs/1Björn Gustavsson
The run-time system would terminate if code:load_abs/1 was called with a filename containing any non-latin1 characters. The reason is that code_server would attempt to construct a module name from the filename using list_to_atom/1 and that atoms currently are limited to the latin1 character set. But how should the error be reported? I have decided to that the simplest and least confusing way is to move the call to list_to_atom/1 to 'code' module and let it crash the calling process. The resulting stack back trace will make it clear what the reason for the crash was.
2016-01-22Remove redundant test that hipe_unified_loader is loadedBjörn Gustavsson
For some reason, there is a test in code_server that hipe_unified_loader is loaded before trying to call it. The test was added in R9B, but it is not clear why. Before starting the code server, the 'code' module would always load hipe_unified_loader; thus there is now way that the test can ever fail.
2016-01-22Avoid testing for pending on_load twiceBjörn Gustavsson
2016-01-22code_server: Tighten type of modules parametersBjörn Gustavsson
The following functions in the 'code' module only allow the module argument to an atom: load_file/1 load_binary/3 ensure_loaded/1 delete/1 purge/1 soft_purge/1 get_object_code/1 Therefore, there is no reason that the corresponding implementation in code_server should allow the module to be either an atom or a string. Only accept an atom and remove the helper functions to_atom/1 and do_mod_call/4.

2016-01-13erts: Refactor code:purge/1 and code:soft_purge/1Sverker Eriksson
