Also removes the 'catch' from timer:tc functions which masked errors
in measuring code.

supervisor:terminate_child/2 was not allowed if the supervisor used
restart strategy simple_one_for_one. This is now changed so that
children of this type of supervisors can be terminated by specifying
the child's Pid.

Various small documentation fixes
OTP-9172
|
|
Fixed a couple of compilation errors. Also backed out a tiny change
that had already been added by Tuncer Ayaz in his binary-part-typo
branch.
|
|
This change fixes a bunch of small (and a few less small) typos and
other errors in various modules that I've spotted throughout my travels.

This new feature adds the missing week number function to the calendar module
of the stdlib application. The implementation conforms to the ISO 8601 standard.
The new feature has been implemented tested and documented.

The default maximum number of slots of Dets tables has been changed to
be equal to the maximum number of slots.

* sverker/ets_compress/OTP-8922:
ETS 'compressed' option.
|
|
The compressed format is using a slighty modified variant of the extern format
(term_to_binary). To not worsen key lookup's too much, the top tuple itself
and the key element are not compressed. Table objects with only immediate
non-key elements will therefor not gain anything (but actually consume one
extra word for "alloc_size").

Documentation update to ETS and drivers

Correct typos (e.g. it's -> its as appropriate).
Reword some sections for clarity.
|
|
State more clearly that ETS functions will throw badarg if calling
process lacks access right. And that driver stop callback should free
memory allocted by start.
|
|
|
|
Make it explicit that the shutdown timeout is to be specified in
milliseconds.

* rickard/ethread-rewrite/OTP-8544:
Rewrite ethread library
|
|
Large parts of the ethread library have been rewritten. The
ethread library is an Erlang runtime system internal, portable
thread library used by the runtime system itself.
Most notable improvement is a reader optimized rwlock
implementation which dramatically improve the performance of
read-lock/read-unlock operations on multi processor systems by
avoiding ping-ponging of the rwlock cache lines. The reader
optimized rwlock implementation is used by miscellaneous
rwlocks in the runtime system that are known to be read-locked
frequently, and can be enabled on ETS tables by passing the
`{read_concurrency, true}' option upon table creation. See the
documentation of `ets:new/2' for more information.
The ethread library can now also use the libatomic_ops library
for atomic memory accesses. This makes it possible for the
Erlang runtime system to utilize optimized atomic operations
on more platforms than before. Use the
`--with-libatomic_ops=PATH' configure command line argument
when specifying where the libatomic_ops installation is
located. The libatomic_ops library can be downloaded from:
http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/linux/atomic_ops/
The changed API of the ethread library has also caused
modifications in the Erlang runtime system. Preparations for
the to come "delayed deallocation" feature has also been done
since it depends on the ethread library.
Note: When building for x86, the ethread library will now use
instructions that first appeared on the pentium 4 processor. If
you want the runtime system to be compatible with older
processors (back to 486) you need to pass the
`--enable-ethread-pre-pentium4-compatibility' configure command
line argument when configuring the system.
