2018-10-19beam_lib: Remove obsolete module() from the beam() typeBjörn Gustavsson
The type `beam()` in the `beam_lib` module is confusing: -type beam() :: module() | file:filename() | binary(). It says that the module name can be used to identify the BEAM module to be accessed, but passing in the module name only works if the BEAM file is located in the current working directory because the module is not searched for in the code path. The reason that it is allowed to pass in the module name as an atom is for backward compatibility. A long time ago, atoms instead of strings were used as filenames. For that reason, `filename` and `file` still accept atoms as filenames (although the practice is frown upon). `beam_lib` accepts an atom as the filename for the same reason. To remove the confusion, remove `module()` from the type and the mention of it in the documentation. Code that uses an atom as a filename will still work, but Dialyzer will issue a warning. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-696

2018-09-07[supervisor] Add warning about race conditionSiri Hansen
ERL-724: "During a 'gentle' shutdown, supervisors unlink from their children before sending shutdown signals to them. This can lead to a race condition in supervision trees, when the timeout for gentle shutdown of a parent supervisor expires and it kills a child supervisor that has just unlinked from a child of its own, leaving the child supervisor's own child still running after its supervisor is killed." This commit adds a warning about this in the documentation.

2018-04-26[stdlib/sys]: install one debug function more times (#1781)Pouriya
Allow installing multiple instances of sys debug function This commit solves a bug which allowed installing {Fun,State} as sys debug function even if Fun was already installed. This happened in the case when the current State of the debug fun was undefined. Also, the new format {Id,Fun,State} of debug functions can be installed, allowing multiple instances of the same fun.

2018-04-23Fix sys's debug statistics.Boshan Sun
Currently, in sys:stat/2, the message out only count for system events with format {out, Msg, To}. However, the gen_server:reply/5 will call sys:handle_debug/4 with format {out, Reply, To, State}. That will make the message out count fail to pattern matching. Also update sys_SUITE.erl and relevant docs.
