2012-08-30Teach VM not to dump core on long pathnamesPatrik Nyblom
Long input paths (longer than MAX_PATH) would get copied into a buffer of size MAX_PATH for read_link and altname in efile_drv. Also fixed misuse of size_t parameter as wchar_t * string length in win_efile:efile_readlink.

2012-08-21Fix init:restart with hipelibsSverker Eriksson
This is a workaround for init:restart. The root problem is that delete/purge_module does not clean up internal hipe bookkeeping (hipe_mfa_info's) properly. Symptom: Execution of deallocated beam code.

2012-08-16Allow mixed IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to sctp_bindxTomas Abrahamsson
Also allow mixed address families to bind, since the first address on a multihomed sctp socket must be bound with bind, while the rest are to be bound using sctp_bindx. At least Linux supports adding address of mixing families. Make inet_set_faddress function available also when HAVE_SCTP is not defined, since we use it to find an address for bind to be able to mix ipv4 and ipv6 addresses.
2012-08-16Fix SCTP multihomingTomas Abrahamsson
Setting several ip addresses for an SCTP socket worked only for IPv4 on Linux. For IPv6 and for other for instance Solaris and FreeBSD, it failed with badarg for both IPv4 and IPv6. For the first address specified to gen_sctp:open, bind is now called, while for any following addresses, sctp_bindx is called, repeatedly, with one address at a time. Previously, sctp_bindx was called for all addresses in one go, with the addresses in reverse order, and bind was not called at all if more than one address was specified. Both Solaris and FreeBSD requires bind to have been called before calling sctp_bindx, and FreeBSD additionally allows at most one address at a time in the call to sctp_bindx. For some versions of Linux, for instance SuSE 10, the port can be 0 only for the call to bind but not for subsequent calls to sctp_bindx, so replace with the port number assigned by the operating system.

2012-08-14Add documetation about Unicode in environmentPatrik Nyblom
2012-08-14Make get/putenv and erlexec understand UnicodePatrik Nyblom
Putenv and getenv needs to convert to the proper environment strings in Unicode depending on platform and user settings for filename encoding. Also erlexec needs to pass environment strings in an appropriate way for kernel to pick up. All environment strings on the command line, as well as home directory, is now passed in UTF8 on windows and in whatever encoding you have on Unix, kernel tries to convert all parameters and environments from UTF8 before making strings.

2012-07-06[erts,kernel,stdlib] fix escript/primary archive reloadingTuncer Ayaz
If the mtime of an escript/primary archive file changes after being added to the code path, correctly reload the archive and update the cache. The existing code didn't consider that it might be a zip archive and failed: =ERROR REPORT==== 3-Aug-2011::09:21:21 === File operation error: bad_central_directory. Target: /escript_archive/module.beam. Function: get_file. Process: code_server. Thanks David Reid and Hakan Mattson.

While disk_log eagerly collects logged data for better performance, collecting too much data may choke the system and cause huge binaries to be written. The problem was addressed in OTP-9764, but the situation was not improved in all cases. Thanks to Richard Carlsson.
