When exchanging groups between nodes pg2 did not remove duplicated members.
This bug was introduced in R13B03 (kernel-2.13.4).

* fm/file-operations:
Update preloaded modules
Add file:advise/4 - a wrapper to the POSIX syscall posix_fadvise
Add file:datasync/1 for syncing file contents only
sys.h: Correct the get_int64() macro
OTP-8637 fm/file-operations
The functions file:advise/4 and file:datasync/1 have been added. (Thanks to
Filipe David Manana.)

Useful for informing the Operating System about the access pattern
for a file's data, so that it can adapt the caching strategy to
maximize disk IO performance.
|
|
file:datasync/1 invokes the POSIX system call "int fdatasync(int fd)".
This system call is similar to "fsync" but, unlike fsync, it does not
update the metadata associated with the file (like the access time for
example). It's used by many DBMSs (MySQL and SQLite of example) to
increase disk IO performance, as it avoids disk seeks and disk write
operations compared to fsync.
More details on it at:
http://linux.die.net/man/2/fdatasync
An example, from the MySQL source:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mysql/mysql-server/mysql-5.1-telco-6.1/annotate/head%3A/mysys/my_sync.c#L61
This new function just calls fsync on systems not implementing fdatasync.

* bg/file-del_dir:
Adjust test of file:del_dir("..") to accept {error,einval}
|
|
On FreeBSD, file:del_dir("..") will return {error,einval} rather
than the expected {error,eexist}, and so will file:del_dir("../.."),
and so on.
It could be argued that we should change the implementation of
file:del_dir/1 to remap the error code (as some other error codes
are remapped to reduce the differences between different platforms),
but the consistency gained does not seem to be worth the effort.
Therefore, until we'll find a real-world use case where it is
essential to have consistent error codes for file:del_dir("..") on
all platforms, change the test case to accept both errors.

* jb/inet6-dist:
Support IPv6 addresses in long host names
Fix implementation of IPv6 TCP distribution protocol
Fix compilation of epmd with IPv6 enabled
OTP-8575 jb/inet6-dist
|

When distributing over IPv4, node@<IPv4-address>
(e.g. [email protected]) works correctly.
Permit node@<IPv6-address> (e.g. node@::1) when
distributing over IPv6.

Doc fix: inet:getopts/2 returns {ok, OptionValues}, not just OptionValues

TCP distribution over IPv6 did not work. The TCP socket
was forcibly closed before any communication could take place.
The following changes resolve this:
* Make the kernel use the inet6 variant of accept.
* Use inet6 variants of TCP socket functions.
* Ensure that the inet6 address family is used in all cases.

|
As of this version, the global name server no longer supports nodes running
Erlang/OTP R11B.

* ml/documentation_apostrophe_fix:
Correct grammatical problems in conjunction with 'its'
Change all incorrect occurrences of it's to its
OTP-8523 ml/documentation_apostrophe_fix
|
|
|
|
The documentation (*.xml) in the otp tree has a common grammatical
problem, "it's" and "its" are often interchanged. That is annoying
for some readers.
This commit consists entirely of "it's" -> "its" changes. I went
through every .xml file in the tree. If there are any remaining
bugs of this type, it's because I missed them, not because I
didn't look.

A race condition in os:cmd/1 could cause the caller to get stuck in
os:cmd/1 forever.

Change the shell's line buffer mechanism to more
closely match readline-based shells. New behavior:
1. Blank lines are not added to the line buffer.
2. Pressing the down arrow on the last line causes no change.
The previous behavior erased the line.
3. The new line is temporarily added to the line buffer
so the user can move to previous lines with up arrows
and then back to the new line with down arrows.
The previous behavior discarded the partially written
new line.
4. Changes made to previous lines while exploring the line
buffer history are preserved.
The previous behavior discarded changes made to older lines.

* ks/types:
file.hrl: Move out type declarations
kernel: Add types and specs
OTP-8494 ks/types
|
|
Having various type declarations in the file.hrl file was once upon a time
necessary since the system could not really handle remote types. Now it can
and these declarations should not be there but appear in file.erl instead.
This means that files that need to use these types can refer to them using
a remote type reference, and not having to include file.hrl - at least not
for this reason.

inet_res_SUITE: testcase fixes for legacy DNS resolver (Solaris 8)
inet_res: /etc/resolv.conf: use domain as default search list
inet: delayed/avoided read of /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts
inet_gethost_native: workaround for empty result hostname on MacOS X
inet_res_SUITE: testcase fix for empty domain name
inet:gethostbyname improved to parse IP strings and look up own hostname
OTP-8426 The resolver routines failed to look up the own node name as
hostname, if the OS native resolver was erroneously configured,
bug reported by Yogish Baliga, now fixed.
The resolver routines now tries to parse the hostname as an IP
string as most OS resolvers do, unless the native resolver is
used.
The DNS resolver inet_res and file resolver inet_hosts now do not
read OS configuration files until they are needed. Since the
native resolver is default, in most cases they are never needed.
The DNS resolver's automatic updating of OS configuration file
data (/etc/resolv.conf) now uses the 'domain' keyword as default
search domain if there is no 'search' keyword.
|
|
|
|
When the search list option in /etc/resolv.conf was empty, the
domain option was not used as default search domain.
That has been fixed in this patch.
|
|
The 'file' and 'dns' lookup methods configuration files
are now read and parsed at the time of the first lookup
instead of at boot time when per default none of these
lookup methods are used.
|
|
On MacOS X the getaddrinfo function apparently can return a result
without canonical hostname e.g when looking up a IPv6 address
string as hostname. The receiving erlang code was not prepared
for that and this patch does a workaround by using the
search string as default value for canonical hostname.
|
|
|
|
Now inet:gethostbyname tries to parse the hostname as an IP string
first if the 'native' lookup method is not used. One can also
make the IP string parsing explicit using the new 'string'
lookup method, or avoid it using the new pseudo lookup
method 'nostring'.
In R13B04 a bug was introduced when the gethostbyname code
was rewritten, so if the native resolver was used and
misconfigured to not be able to look up the own hostname,
inet:gethostbyname also failed. This is now fixed.
|
|
This avoids costly scheduling changes during module loading if native
code is disabled in erts, or not present in the module being loaded.

* sc/sctp-connect-nowait:
Implement a non-blocking SCTP connect
OTP-8414 There are new gen_sctp:connect_init/* functions that initiate an
SCTP connection without blocking for the result. The result is
delivered asynchronously as an sctp_assoc_change event. (Thanks
to Simon Cornish.)
|
|
This patch adds a new set of functions - gen_sctp:connect_init/* that initiate
an SCTP connection without blocking for the result. The result is delivered
asynchronously as an sctp_assoc_change event.
The new functions have the same API as documented for gen_sctp:connect/* with
the following exceptions:
* Timeout is only used to supervise resolving Addr (the peer address)
* The possible return values are ok | {error, posix()}
The caller application is responsible for receiving the #sctp_assoc_change{}
event and correctly determining the connect it originated from (for example,
by examining the remote host and/or port). The application should have at
least {active, once} or use gen_sctp:recv to retrieve the connect result.
The implementation of gen_sctp:connect suffers from a number of
shortcomings which the user may avoid by using gen_sctp:connect_init and
adding code to receive the connect result.
First, irrespective of the Timeout value given to gen_sctp:connect, the OS
attempts and retries the SCTP INIT according to various kernel parameters. If
the Timeout value is shorter than the entire attempt then the application will
still receive an sctp_assoc_change event after the {error, timeout} is
returned from the initial call. This could be somewhat confusing (either to
the application or the designer!) especially if the status is
comm_up. Subsequent calls to connect before the OS has finished this process
return {error, ealready} which may also be counter-intuitive.
Second, there is a race-condition (documented in comments in inet_sctp.erl)
that can cause the wrong sctp_assoc_change record to be returned to an
application calling gen_sctp:connect. The race seriously affects connection
attempts when using one-to-many sockets.
