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.

2016-01-22code_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.
2016-01-20erl_prim_loader: Rename release_archives/0Björn Gustavsson
Rename release_archives/0 to purge_archive_cache/0 to make it clearer what it does and what it doesn't do. Also add a comment about its intended purpose. Note that release_archives/0 is not documented and is part of the experimental archive feature. Furthermore, the only uses I could find were in the test suite. I did not find any uses in the external applications relx and rebar3 applications that are known to use archives. Therefore, I think that the increased clarity is worth the small risk of breaking code.
2016-01-13erts: Make erlang:purge_module/1 safeSverker Eriksson
Problem: erlang:purge_module/1 is not safe in the sense that very bad things may happen if the code to be purged is still referred to by live processes. Introduce erts_internal:purge_module which is the same as the old erlang:purge_module BIF (except it returns false if no such old module). Implement erlang:purge_module in Erlang and let it invoke erts_code_purger for safe purging where all clogging processes first are killed.
2016-01-13erts: Refactor code:purge/1 and code:soft_purge/1Sverker Eriksson
by moving code from code_server to erts_code_purger. This is more or less a copy-paste from code_server.erl to erts_code_purger.erl. All the inner mechanics of code:purge/1 and code:soft_purge/1 are unchanged.
2016-01-13erts: Introduce erts_code_purgerSverker Eriksson
as a system process with preloaded code.

2015-12-14Remove the code path cache in the code serverBjörn Gustavsson
In practice, it does not seem that code path cache can improve performance. Looking for any file that is not found will cause the cache to be rebuilt, which will negate any gain of using the cache.
