2013-01-17global_SUITE: Eliminate redundant registration of 'test_server' processBjörn Gustavsson
global_SUITE registers the name 'test_server' in the global registry for what seems to be only historical reasons. Exactly how it happened is lost in the mists of time, but I think the following is a reasonable reconstruction: * At one point in time, the test_server application started to do a global registration of a 'test_server' process to support embedded systems when the test_server application was run on both a host and a target system. * global_SUITE had to be modified to take the pre-existing 'test_server' registration into account. * When Erlang/OTP switched to using common_test, global_SUITE was modified to register the 'test_server' name itself in commit 8bd07f450816eaaae52d28740d89ead1f930cd02 (since the test_server application does not register the 'test_server' name when run under control of common_test). To slightly reduce the size of global_SUITE, remove the redundant registration and stop expecting 'test_server' to be registered.

2013-01-09Add file:allocate/3 operationFilipe David Manana
This operation allows pre-allocation of space for files. It succeeds only on systems that support such operation. The POSIX standard defines the optional system call posix_fallocate() to implement this feature. However, some systems implement more specific functions to accomplish the same operation. On Linux, if the more specific function fallocate() is implemented, it is used instead of posix_fallocate(), falling back to posix_fallocate() if the fallocate() call failed (it's only supported for the ext4, ocfs2, xfs and btrfs file systems at the moment). On Mac OS X it uses the specific fcntl() operation F_PREALLOCATE, falling back to posix_fallocate() if it's available (at the moment Mac OS X doesn't provide posix_fallocate()). On any other UNIX system, it uses posix_fallocate() if it's available. Any other system not providing this system call or any function to pre-allocate space for files, this operation always fails with the ENOTSUP POSIX error.

Expect modifications, additions and corrections. There is a kludge in file_io_server and erl_scan:continuation_location() that's not so pleasing.
2012-12-20Move ram option from mode() type into open/2 specPatrik Nyblom
The mode() type is used in path_open and copy, two functions that do _not_ accept the ram option (or is at least not supposed to), why I moved the option 'ram' from the type down to the spec for open itself. That also makes the option visible directly under open/2 in the documentation.
