2016-03-03Fix code_SUITE after test_server changeSiri Hansen
test_server:start_node does no longer add the test_server path to the new node, since the needed code is present in the default path. This caused two test cases in code_SUITE to fail. code_SUITE:mult_lib_roots: Expected the test_server path to be first in the code path. This check is removed. code_SUITE:bad_erl_libs: Started a node with "-env ERL_LIBS ", i.e. not giving any value to the ERL_LIBS variable. This test succeeded by accident, since the combination with arguments set by test_server_node.erl and by slave.erl caused the node start to work, and no further checks were present in the test. This part of the test case is now removed.

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.
2016-02-25Add erl_prim_loader:get_modules/3Björn Gustavsson
When we are going to implement functions that can load many modules at once, we don't the erl_prim_loader server to become a bottleneck. Therefore, we need erl_prim_loader:get_modules/3 that can read many BEAM files in parallel. Note that we will not bother making reading from archive files or using the inet loader efficient. That can be done later if it turns out to be important.

2016-02-17Remove test_server as a standalone applicationBjörn Gustavsson
The test_server application has previously been deprecated. In OTP 19, we will move relevant parts of test_server into the common_test application. Test suites that include test_server.hrl must be updated to include ct.hrl instead. Test suites that include test_server_line.hrl must removed that inclusion. Test suites that call the test_server module directly will continue to work in OTP 19. The test suites for Erlang/OTP are built and executed in exactly the same way as previously. Here are some more details. The modules test_server*.erl and erl2html2.erl in lib/test_server/src have been moved to common_test/src. The test_server.hrl and test_server_line.hrl include files have been deleted. The macros in test_server.hrl have been copied into lib/common_test/include/ct.hrl. The ts*.erl modules and their associated data files in lib/test_server/src has been been moved to the new directory lib/common_test/test_server. The ts* modules are no longer built to lib/common_test/ebin. They will only built when 'make release_tests' is executed. The test suite for test_server has been moved to lib/common_test/test. The rest of the files have been deleted.

2016-02-17Makefiles: Remove test_server from include path and code pathBjörn Gustavsson
Since no test suites includede test_server.hrl, there is no need to have test_server in the include path or code path.
2016-02-17Eliminate use of test_server.hrl and test_server_line.hrlBjörn Gustavsson
As a first step to removing the test_server application as as its own separate application, change the inclusion of test_server.hrl to an inclusion of ct.hrl and remove the inclusion of test_server_line.hrl.

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
2016-02-11erl_prim_loader_SUITE: Refactor helper functionsBjörn Gustavsson
Eliminate duplicated code by factoring out the common code for starting erl_boot_server and a slave node. Also, in the new start_boot_server/0 helper, fix a problem with Linux systems that assign 127.0.1.1 as the IP address for the hostname. Also stop using the -setcookie option when starting a node using -loader inet. The inet loading method doesn't use the distribution anymore.
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.
