The old hybrid did not update preloaded and mandatory module lists and
kernel processes.

Communication between Erlang processes has conceptually always been
performed through asynchronous signaling. The runtime system
implementation has however previously preformed most operation
synchronously. In a system with only one true thread of execution, this
is not problematic (often the opposite). In a system with multiple threads
of execution (as current runtime system implementation with SMP support)
it becomes problematic. This since it often involves locking of structures
when updating them which in turn cause resource contention. Utilizing
true asynchronous communication often avoids these resource contention
issues.
The case that triggered this change was contention on the link lock due
to frequent updates of the monitor trees during communication with a
frequently used server. The signal order delivery guarantees of the
language makes it hard to change the implementation of only some signals
to use true asynchronous signaling. Therefore the implementations
of (almost) all signals have been changed.
Currently the following signals have been implemented as true
asynchronous signals:
- Message signals
- Exit signals
- Monitor signals
- Demonitor signals
- Monitor triggered signals (DOWN, CHANGE, etc)
- Link signals
- Unlink signals
- Group leader signals
All of the above already defined as asynchronous signals in the
language. The implementation of messages signals was quite
asynchronous to begin with, but had quite strict delivery constraints
due to the ordering guarantees of signals between a pair of processes.
The previously used message queue partitioned into two halves has been
replaced by a more general signal queue partitioned into three parts
that service all kinds of signals. More details regarding the signal
queue can be found in comments in the erl_proc_sig_queue.h file.
The monitor and link implementations have also been completely replaced
in order to fit the new asynchronous signaling implementation as good
as possible. More details regarding the new monitor and link
implementations can be found in the erl_monitor_link.h file.

rb would fail to show an error_logger report which was not a
list. This is now corrected and any term is allowed (as specified in
the error_logger reference manual).

This can now be explicitly set by the 'sasl_error_logger'
configuration parameter, but if not set, the default encoding is now
utf8. When printing to this log, the Unicode translation modifier, t,
might be used in the format string.

Update erl_tar to support PAX format (redux)
OTP-14226
|
|
This commit introduces the following key changes:
- Support for reading tar archives in formats currently in common use,
such as v7, STAR, USTAR, PAX, and GNU tar's extensions to the
STAR/USTAR format.
- Support for writing PAX archives, only when necessary, using USTAR
when possible for greater portability.
These changes result in lifting of some prior restrictions:
- Support for reading archives produced by modern tar implementations
when other restrictions described below are present.
- Support for filenames which exceed 100 bytes in length, or paths which
exceed 255 bytes (see USTAR format specification for more details on
this restriction).
- Support for filenames of arbitrary length
- Support for unicode metadata (the previous behaviour of erl_tar was
actually violating the spec, by writing unicode-encoded data to fields
which are defined to be 7-bit ASCII, even though this technically
worked when using erl_tar at source and destination, it may not have
worked with other tar utilities, and this implementation now conforms
to the spec).
- Support for uid/gid values which cannot be converted to octal
integers.

When both options 'warnings_as_errors' and 'silent' were given to
systools:make_script or systools:make_relup, no error reason would be
returned if warnings occured. Instead only the atom 'error' was
returned. This is now corrected.
Options 'warnings_as_errors' and 'no_warn_sasl' are now also allowed
for systools:make_tar.

Add the possibility to use modules as trace data receivers. The functions
in the module have to be nifs as otherwise complex trace probes will be
very hard to handle (complex means trace probes for ports for example).
This commit changes the way that the ptab->tracer field works from always
being an immediate, to now be NIL if no tracer is present or else be
the tuple {TracerModule, TracerState} where TracerModule is an atom that
is later used to lookup the appropriate tracer callbacks to call and
TracerState is just passed to the tracer callback. The default process and
port tracers have been rewritten to use the new API.
This commit also changes the order which trace messages are delivered to the
potential tracer process. Any enif_send done in a tracer module may be delayed
indefinitely because of lock order issues. If a message is delayed any other
trace message send from that process is also delayed so that order is preserved
for each traced entity. This means that for some trace events (i.e. send/receive)
the events may come in an unintuitive order (receive before send) to the
trace receiver. Timestamps are taken when the trace message is generated so
trace messages from differented processes may arrive with the timestamp
out of order.
Both the erlang:trace and seq_trace:set_system_tracer accept the new tracer
module tracers and also the backwards compatible arguments.

update copyright-year
|

Add commonly used modules to the list of modules in
mandatory_modules/0. Having those modules listed will potentially
help the 'init' module to load them in parallel during start-up.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The reason is that the module is not used, and that we se no obvious
use case for it.

This function is used by release_handler during upgrade. This was
earlier implemented in the release_handler, but it required a copy og
the definition of the supervisor's internal state, which caused
problems when this state was updated.
