2016-10-31Propagate exceptions fully when using proc_libLoïc Hoguin
This makes proc_lib behaves like a normal process as far as the propagation of exceptions is concerned. Before this commit, the following difference could be observed: 6> spawn_link(fun() -> ssl:send(a,b) end). <0.43.0> 7> flush(). Shell got {'EXIT',<0.43.0>, {function_clause, [{ssl,send,[a,b],[{file,"..."},{line,275}]}]}} ok 8> proc_lib:spawn_link(fun() -> ssl:send(a,b) end). <0.46.0> 9> flush(). Shell got {'EXIT',<0.46.0>,function_clause} After this commit, we get the following instead: 3> flush(). Shell got {'EXIT',<0.61.0>, {function_clause, [{ssl,send,[a,b],[{file,"..."},{line,275}]}, {proc_lib,init_p,3,[{file,"..."},{line,232}]}]}} The stacktrace will show minor differences of course but the form is now the same as without proc_lib. The rationale behind this commit is that: * We now have a single form regardless of how the process was started * We can use the stacktrace to programmatically alter behavior (for example an HTTP server identifying problems in input decoding to send back a generic 400, or a 500 otherwise) * We can access the stacktrace to print it somewhere (for example an HTTP server could send it back to the client when a debug mode is enabled)

2016-10-26Optimize event timeoutRaimo Niskanen
Do not start an event timer unless there are no enqueued events.
2016-10-26Rework timeout handlingRaimo Niskanen
Handling of timers and timeouts has been cleaned up and generalized. Semantic change regarding state timeout zero: Previously if one state caused a state timeout zero and managed to stay in the same state to insert additional timeout zero(s) in the next state callback invocation, then there would be only one timeout zero event. The mindset was that the machine was faster then the timeout zero. This has changed with the mindset that all state callback invocations should be independent, so now the machine will get one state timeout zero event per started state timeout zero. Note that just using zero timeouts is fairly esoteric...

2016-09-05Add math:floor/1 and math:ceil/1Björn Gustavsson
Add math:floor/1 and math:ceil/1 to avoid unnecessary conversions in floating point expressions. That is, instead of having to write float(floor(X)) as part of a floating point expressions, we can write simply math:floor(X).

2016-09-01Teach erl_expand_records to translate module-less callsBjörn Gustavsson
As the next step in eliminating sys_pre_expand, teach erl_expand_records to handle calls without explicit module name. If such call refer to a BIF or imported function, add an explicit module name. That means that any subsequent pass will know that a call without a module name is always to a local function defined in the module.
2016-09-01erl_internal: Add add_predefined_functions/1Björn Gustavsson
The sys_pre_expand module used to do a lot more (translate records and funs, for example), but now it does very little. Most of the code is an identify transformation of the abstract format. The identity transformation part of the code must be maintained and kept correct when new forms are added to the abstract format. That adds to the maintance burden. It also adds (slightly) to compilation times. Therefore, we want to eliminate sys_pre_expand, moving all of its (non-identity) transformations to better places. As a preliminary first step, move the code that adds the pre-defined functions (such as module_info/0) to a new function in erl_internal.
